Onigiri RAKU In Bologna

Welcoming place and excellent food quality. Nice to let yourself be guided by the owners' advice, dine with excellent tea and put aside our Italian habits for a full immersion in Japanese cuisine. The vegetable fumè is a real treat!

It is an excellent place, small but reminiscent of typical Japanese places. The food is beyond exceptional. I recommend it to anyone who wants to try typical Japanese cuisine, there are few dishes but with a wide range of ingredients and they are excellent. The service is carried out by the owner and his wife is in the kitchen, a homely and welcoming environment. If I had to find a criticism to make I would say that there are few seats but, in my opinion, they create even more of the homely feeling of a typical restaurant. I recommend it to anyone who happens to be in the area, it's a truly one-of-a-kind place and the food is amazing, you have to try it and believe it

Truly excellent place, small but very welcoming and with a style that faithfully reproduces Japanese places, pleasant, kind and extremely friendly staff. Waiting times are practically non-existent and the food is excellent, I recommend the takoyaki and the Katsu curry don

If you're looking for an authentic experience, this little Japanese diner near the station is a hidden gem. The place is rustic and intimate, with few seats, just like some small restaurants in Tokyo. In the kitchen there is a real Japanese cook, while the husband manages orders and the cash register with cordiality. The menu is basic, but offers classic Japanese dishes, prepared with care and with authentic, well-balanced flavours. The portions are a bit small, so if you are very hungry, one dish might not be enough. The only flaw is the use of disposable tableware, even for those eating on site, which takes some of the charm away from the experience. That said, the prices are honest and the atmosphere is so genuine that I would happily return for another dip in Japan.

Really very good food in an intimate setting with bespoke joinery. The owners are very kind and careful to make you feel at ease. I highly recommend!

Everything is excellent, but be careful, it is not a classic restaurant! This is what distinguishes this place, with the kindness of the owners you will feel like you are at home

Small original Japanese take and way (fast food) a nice discovery with open kitchen excellent dishes and super friendly staff. Well looked after place. I highly recommend

We went to this place with my family, excellent food and a good welcome from the gentleman in the room who immediately made us feel at ease excellent food at honest prices highly recommended we will return for sure 🙂🙂

Finally a real Japanese restaurant in Bologna!! Among the various fusions in every corner of the city I had lost hope... but this is a real gem! An informal and simple place, in true Japanese style, it offers a rather varied menu with authentic flavours. I can't wait to go back!!
