Osteria Amelia In Savignano sul panaro

Trattoria with a traditional menu of excellent quality, good value for money, excellent service, friendly and nice owner

Located at the entrance to the charming village, we stopped by chance and it was a lovely surprise. Very clean environment, very friendly staff. Excellent, healthy dishes, and absolutely fair prices. We'll be back. PS: The village is truly delightful.

Excellent food and very friendly staff! It wasn't my first time there and it won't be my last!!

Fantastic osteria, delicious food, and a super cozy atmosphere. If you're in the area, you absolutely have to stop by. The gnocco fritto was the best we've ever had.

Wow what a hidden gem!! Incredible food and the most hospitable staff. Highly recommend.

LOCATION, FIRST COURSES and DESSERTS are winning 😁👍 LOCATION: it is located right in the heart of the medieval village (small and beautiful); simple but welcoming interior, very clean (the bathroom is always a calling card); overall it looks like one of those old delicatessens where you bought cured meats and stopped to eat dishes of the day, but this is a full-fledged Osteria 😊 MENU: the strong point is the FIRST COURSES, you can also see how much space they take up in the catalog, all the must-haves of the Emilian tradition are present, tagliatelle, tortellini and tortelloni, we really appreciated "TORTELLONI VECCHIA MODENA" (lean tortelloni seasoned with butter and bacon blended with balsamic vinegar), the balsamic vinegar gave the right amount of sweetness and did not overwhelm the rest. The TAGLIATELLE with Bolognese ragù are good, in the good Emilian standard, just like at home 😊 THE DESSERTS are really good, I definitely recommend trying the BAROZZI CAKE typical of Vignola, drowned in an excellent mascarpone and the SFOGLIATINA of fresh (local) PEACHES with Chantilly cream 😋 In the APPETIZERS area, excellent quality cured meats, less convincing the CROSTINI, in fact 2 good crostini (1 mushroom and 1 pancetta) and 2 bruschettas a little out of context (1 tomato basil and 1 garlic oil) which we would have preferred replaced by a classic one with livers or something else hot, ditto the zucchini flower fritters proposed here in the Neapolitan sciurilli version, in which the zucchini flower is inevitably mortified by the batter, at this point if we have to go out of the region it is better to choose the Roman-style stuffed ones. On the menu, we didn't see the area's flagship fruit, the cherry, or seasonal must, two products that would certainly have been a good addition to some dishes. PRICE: Overall, the quality-price ratio is good; the appetizers at €6 (€7 for prosciutto and gnocco)—from what I've said—aren't particularly worth it, the desserts at €4.50 are reasonably priced, and the first courses are reasonably priced. RESERVATIONS are recommended; there's about thirty seats in total. PARKING is no problem. In conclusion, it's a traditional Osteria that we enjoyed, absolutely perfect for a traditional Emilian lunch, in a very pretty village in the Modena hills. It's a shame that, with good desserts and cured meats, it doesn't have continuous hours on weekend afternoons for sweet or savory snacks.

Lunch with friends. When we arrived in this authentic village 30 minutes from Bologna, we were struck by the owner's hospitality and kindness. We ate wonderfully, all homemade, zero-mile products. Dishes were beautifully served and presented. We need more restaurants like these in our country, which convey tradition, authenticity, and passion. P.S. The desserts are delicious!
