L'Arcimboldo In Bologna

It’s something else… The quality of the products, the service. One of the best restaurants that I’ve ever been. Completely forgot to take pictures even making a living out of that. Just got a couple of the desserts. Try it out, you won’t regret it.

This is the second time I have been a guest in this restaurant. Attracted by the first visit in particular by the lasagna, this time rearranged but in my opinion worse, nothing to say about the presentation even if I would leave the little flowers alone! They had no consistency, they melted, the pasta should be slightly thicker, good flavor but they are not Bolognese lasagnette! The tagliatelle are good and have long strips. The cod was good, even if it wasn't well boned, steamed well, but the accompanying vegetables were inedible, the pumpkin broth was delicate but not suitable (for my tastes). Trifle, a tile, good presentation, but for me, the soup must be soup! Cutlet, MontbBlanc presentation (not for me), good meat. A welcome plate wouldn't be bad! Personal criticism (in a good way) of the chef, too much confusion (he has worked and it shows in different kitchens) in preparing the food he is focused first and foremost on the presentation, paying more attention to the ingredients in terms of consistency and getting closer to the real Bolognese cuisine. Prices normal but tending to be expensive.

We ordered several appetizers (crescentina and cold cuts platter), first courses (tagliatelle and tortellini), second courses (bollito) and desserts (black forest, panna cotta, puff pastry with apples). It was all particularly good, but a special mention goes to the boiled meat (unfortunately we didn't take photos of the rest of the dishes). It's definitely worth it! It's our fixed stop when we come to Bologna!

Everything excellent! Delicious lasagna! Bolognese cutlet my favorite dish! For me one of the best restaurants in Bologna! Congratulations to all the staff!

Small restaurant in the heart of Bohlogna, right in the centre, very nice with typical but revisited dishes...really BEAUTIFUL! Fair prices and very friendly staff, recommended!

Good restaurant in the centre. Typical Bolognese dishes. Good tortellini in broth. Starters that are presented in an eye-catching way. Courteous service

Even though we hadn't booked, they placed us in the lower room. Fantastic Crescentina, very good tagliatelle and tortellini, schnitzel also notable in its presentation. The wine is excellent.

I was able to enter without reservation right when they opened, as long as I didn’t stay longer than 1.5hr (highly suggest making reservation though) bad planning on my part. The waitress was lovely, very kind. I had the lasagna and was blown away. I’ve had lasagna in different parts of Italy before but this one is the best one!

Unbedingt reservieren, das Restaurant liegt mitten im Zentrum von Bologna und hat nicht viele Tische. Sehr nette Besitzerin und generell das Personal war sehr lieb. Wir hatten köstliche Parmigiana di melanzane als Vorspeise, danach göttliche Tagliatelle mit Ragù. Wir kommen sicher wieder!

Location in pieno centro. Accogliente, ordinata, con un ottimo servizio, e qualche segno del tempo da sistemare… Personale carinissimo e disponibile. Il menù è quello di una tradizione anche un po’ rivisitata, con sapori decisi e materie prime di prima qualità. Dolci super. Carta dei vini adeguata. Uniche annotazioni: Qualche miglioria di stile in sala e nei locali di servizio lo migliorerebbe. A fine pasto ci hanno avvisato che la cucina chiudeva (alle 14.30) e non è stato possibile ordinare i secondi, ma solo i dolci. Consigliato!
