La Quinta Terra In Rio saliceto

Very nice place, with a true trattoria feel. The staff is very kind, helpful, and very friendly. The tortelli are delicious, as are the gnocco fritto and desserts. The prices are very reasonable. Ample parking and outdoor seating. Reservations recommended.

For our first dinner at this restaurant, we were thrilled! Reggio's culinary tradition is a shining example here, leaving you speechless, but only briefly, given the excellent menu options. The fried gnocco (in Reggio they say "il" gnocco, not "lo" gnocco) is amazing, as are the cured meats. I then literally savoured the pork cheek on a bed of vegetables, so much so that, at the end, the plate was so clean it didn't even need washing. I finished with a generous slice of zuppa inglese, which moved me because its flavour reminded me of when my mother used to make it and I would steal the cocoa cream... So many slaps! In short, everything was perfect! We'll definitely be back, especially because the service is truly excellent and the price is more than fair.

Accessibility 3/5: The parking lot isn't very large, and is mostly a dirt lot. There are no handicapped ramps or reserved parking spaces. Ambience 3/5: The interior is also nice, welcoming, and has lots of exposed wood (which I find pleasant). I dropped from 4/5 to 3/5 because the bathrooms are terrible: old, dirty, poorly lit, with peeling doors. Menu 4/5: Good selection, mostly typical and traditional dishes. I would have appreciated a slightly wider selection of drinks and wines. Quality 5/5: The place's strong point. The dishes are truly high-quality; being "simple," you can taste the quality of the ingredients. They're certainly not diet-friendly, but that's to be expected with tasty dishes 😆 Service/Staff 4/5: Nothing to complain about; the staff are helpful and friendly. Price 4/5: This is the price you'd expect for this type of food and this type of quality. It's not cheap, but then again, quality isn't free.

If you're looking for authentic Emilian cuisine, well-made and without frills, La Quinta Terra is a guarantee. I was there recently and had an excellent experience, but a word of advice: reservations are essential, as the place is always packed! 🍽️ What we ate ​The quality of the cuisine is its real strength. The tortelli were simply delicious; you can taste the artisanal craftsmanship in the fresh pasta (which they also sell to take away!). The pork cheek was also a real surprise: incredibly tender and flavorful, a heart-warming dish. ✨ Why I'll be back: ​Generous portions: You won't leave here hungry. The dishes are generous and of excellent quality. ​Friendly staff: Despite the packed house, the service was friendly and helpful. ​Zero waste: What we didn't finish was kindly packaged for us to take home. A gesture of kindness that I always greatly appreciate. ​Convenience: A very simple and welcoming place, with ample parking right out front, which makes everything very relaxing from the moment you arrive. ​In short: a genuine place where the food is divine. Excellent value for money!

Everything was excellent, even though the place was very full, the guys were on point with the service and perfect timing, the cured meats, gnocchi and first courses were really special, good prices, I will definitely be back

A restaurant with excellent value. It has a traditional, modest menu, featuring traditional Emilian dishes, all homemade. Reservations are required well in advance because it's always busy.

Family lunch at this restaurant surrounded by greenery. We had an appetizer of fried gnocco and cured meats, a delicious pumpkin pie, and several truly delicious first courses (the pappardelle with duck sauce is worth a try). The second courses were also excellent: the stew with polenta was truly flavorful. A grand finale with homemade desserts: the mascarpone cream with berries and the tiramisu were delicious. Excellent value for money.

A typical restaurant serving traditional Reggio Emilia cuisine. The menu, including appetizers, first courses, and main courses, includes gnocco and tigelle, as well as various cold cuts, side dishes, and desserts. Everything is delicious. The wine list includes a variety of Lambrusco wines. The staff are friendly and professional. The restaurant offers summer dining and prices are in line with the menu they offer. (They don't do pizza.)

Still fresh in the memory of today's group lunch at Quinta Terra in Rio Saliceto with friends, I want to tell you I'd go back tomorrow!!! Let's start with the reservation and agreement on the group menu. The management was very kind and helpful, with WhatsApp service. The menu is rich in Emilian tradition, from which I only had to choose a few dishes. It was hard because just reading it makes you like everything! Now I'll do something different. I don't have photos because we forgot to take them, but if you go to their pages you'll find them, and I guarantee they are exactly like that. I'm offering you the menu I put together. Go there and try it. EVERYTHING SUPERLATIVE and the price very competitive. My menu suggestion Appetizers - Scamorza cheese rolled on a bed of radicchio and balsamic vinegar cream - Pumpkin flan on Taleggio cheese fondue Two first courses: - Potato and speck tortelli with walnut sauce - Egg tagliolini with mushroom and sausage ragù Main course: - Roast pork cheek served with sautéed vegetables and potatoes With excellent, well-known wine for every three people. Then, off-menu, we ordered homemade desserts (zuppa inglese, torta tenerina, mascarpone with berries and chocolate shavings, and cheesecake), generous portions, a lemon and ginger sorbet that tasted like ice cream, and coffee. Fast and courteous service. They also offer the option of taking home in a well-protected tray the leftovers, which are not much... if you don't finish it all, there were more women than men, and we know we eat less. I am proud to say that in the lower Reggio Emilia area, there is such an excellent restaurant that retains the warmth and authenticity of the trattorias of the past. Unfortunately, it is always full and you have to book a month in advance if you are in a group.

I've been wanting to go for a long time but never got around to it. Now that I've been there, I have to say it's absolutely worth it. Kudos to all of you. Keep up the good work.
