Magnolia Ristorante In Cesenatico

It was wonderful to immerse yourself for three and a half hours in this culinary masterpiece. Thanks again, Lisa and Benedetto

Intrigued by the Sunday lunch special, we decided to head to Magnolia to try another Michelin-starred dinner. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a unique view and an enviable location; the interior was equally beautiful and well-maintained. The service was impeccable, although I sometimes missed the lightheartedness or small joke that makes guests feel more at ease; I found it a little cold; however, nothing transcendental. The food, what can I say? It has two stars, bold flavors, bold and successful ventures; I go home thinking about the scallops and the dessert, what a treat. The price was fair, very fair. The chef didn't leave at the end of the service. Generally, when the chef leaves, it's always a good thing to see him and have a chat, but that's okay.

We went to this place with high expectations. I must say everything was spot on, well-made, and professional. We really loved everything, from the service to the food and the location. Even the top-notch wine list. The bread was truly exceptional. We had the pleasure of trying the new menu, which was truly excellent. Almost all the dishes were an explosion of flavors, with well-balanced ingredients and perfectly executed contrasts, in my opinion. Truly, just how I like to eat. It's been a while since I've had such a wonderful experience at a restaurant (and I've been to quite a few starred ones). Exceptional desserts, especially the "goat" dessert, one of the best I've ever eaten. We added an extra main course to the tasting menu and all three were spectacular, perhaps only the turbot was a little lacking in flavor and punch compared to the other dishes. The appetizers were the bomb... I still dream about them. One dish that was below par in our opinion was the garganello, which needs to be reviewed and improved. (Also in my opinion) PS When it came to serving the wine, no conversation, explanation, or anything else. Even initially, we found a wafer on the table and no one explained what it was. Like at the beginning of the service, it seemed a bit unimportant, while at the adjacent tables, there was a thousand attentions and explanations of everything, more than we did. But then they recovered with top-notch service. Anyway, I'll be back as soon as possible.

We dined in early June 2025, and the experience was extremely positive. The location is beautiful; the villa enjoys a wonderful view of Longiano. The service was extremely attentive, including the wine selection. The dinner was incredibly delicious and full of flavors and emotions to discover, from the entrée to the dessert. Recommended dishes: the Adriatic Riviera risotto and the marvelous carbonara.

Magnolia is a culinary sensation that goes far beyond the usual Michelin-starred experience. From the moment you enter, you sense that you've arrived in a special place: a stylish ambiance, an atmosphere of tranquility and elegance, and a team that perfectly combines professionalism and warmth. Alberto Faccani's cuisine is pure magic. Every course is an experience – creative, bold, yet always harmonious. Here, you'll see how to create something completely new with precision, passion, and a keen sense for regional ingredients. Fish dishes full of finesse, refined vegetarian compositions, and masterful meat creations: everything is perfectly staged, surprising, and unforgettable. The wine pairing is particularly noteworthy, not only complementing each dish but elevating it to a new experience. You immediately notice that not only Michelin-starred culinary art is at work here, but also genuine enthusiasm and attention to detail. Magnolia is a restaurant that evokes emotions – it touches, inspires, and lingers in the memory. Two stars are more than deserved here: For me, one of the best addresses in Italy and an absolute must for anyone who loves fine dining. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended – an evening at Magnolia is a treat for the senses!

We went to this wonderful restaurant for my boyfriend's birthday. What can I say? Excellent food and wonderful pairings. The service was impeccable, and the ambiance was simple and refined, just like their food. Truly delicious, a highly recommended experience!

Nothing to complain about the food, it was excellent. The service was a bit slow between courses, the atmosphere was relaxing but almost gloomy (it was rainy and windy), and the staff lacked empathy (we didn't have the pleasure of meeting the chef...).

Fantastic experience. My fiancée and I came for our anniversary, and there was nothing wrong with it. From the super attentive staff, to the stunning location with a great view, to the dishes: each one better than the last. Worth the money, without a doubt.

An adventure for the palate! A culinary journey marked by respect for the ingredients, the tasting menu with pairings allows you to excite your taste buds, rediscovering every nuance of the dish; each dish is a tailor-made work of art. All this combined with a fabulous location and perfect service. "Treat yourself to moments of pleasure." Well done, keep up the good work!

Delicious food, incredible view ❤️
