Osteria Alle Due Porte In Bologna

Overall, I really liked this place!! The staff is among the friendliest in the city. Attentive but respectful of the space customers need when entering a restaurant. The Bolognese/Apulian menu is a winning formula, in this case, as everything is prepared with authenticity. Homemade, genuine, and delicious. I can't wait to go back! Well done!

Excellent Osteria in the center of Bologna. Located on one of Bologna's nightlife hotspots, it was a real surprise to find this restaurant open for lunch as well. Excellent management, with a thoughtful selection of traditional Apulian dishes, as well as traditional Bolognese fare. Fresh ingredients and excellent presentation. A refined and clean atmosphere, friendly and attentive staff, a good selection of wines, and fine mushrooms and truffles further enhance the excellent work done in the kitchen. We will definitely be back. Heartfelt thanks to Adriano and his staff. A well-deserved 5-star rating. Highly recommended.

Everything was delicious! Bolognese and Apulian cuisine, the platter and orecchiette were superb.

Simple and welcoming place, I was hoping for some more "flavor", clearly Apulian and less industrial products, I didn't find them, what a shame

Tried it on a Sunday in January. Good experience.

Warm and welcoming atmosphere. The menu offers a lovely selection. We ordered a trio of first courses, each one better than the last: homemade tortellini in broth, tagliatelle with ragù, and tortelloni with ricotta, all excellent. The staff is attentive and super helpful. Fair prices. I recommend it!!! 👌

I had a one night stay in Bologna and was looking for a nice, lively place to have dinner by myself. In the midst of a very busy street, I saw this restaurant. Perfect. Absolutely perfect. Such welcoming energy, great food, local dishes… loved it! Highly recommended!

A positive experience in every way: the cuisine reflects the traditional flavors of Puglia (I felt like I was at my grandmother's house eating the orecchiette pasta dish with fava bean and chicory puree—spectacular!), the service is attentive and punctual, and the prices are reasonable for the quality. Family-friendly (high chairs and a changing table are available). I recommend booking, even for lunch, as we struggled to find a table.

This is my second time eating at this restaurant/osteria. I can only give it an excellent review. We were a table of 15, and everyone ordered their own food, so they had to manage numerous dishes to be served. Despite this, the service was excellent. Among the many dishes I tried, I have to mention the excellent tagliatelle with fresh porcini mushrooms. It was really good and had tons of mushrooms. I also got excellent reviews from other diners. I liked the fried mushrooms a little less, because I prefer them with less coating. Fried mushrooms are tastier when finely chopped and lightly coated in flour. Otherwise, you can taste the batter more than the mushrooms. The prices are more than fair for Bologna. I will be back. For those unfamiliar with Bologna, Via del Pratello is a famous street full of typical eateries of all kinds, very popular starting around aperitivo time.

Good and friendly, excellent first courses, second courses, and dessert! Recommended
