Osteria Da Angela In Loiano

When you put your heart into it, everything turns out well, but if you add experience and skill, the result is excellent!

Nice, welcoming place, lovely hostess, but a bit of fried pasta on a pizza plate, with a spoonful of stracchino, some giardiniera, a small plate of cured meats—all to be shared between four people—€19 per person for a total of €76, and we left feeling hungry. A bit pretentious... too expensive for the price.

Trattoria 3 km from Loiano in Roncastaldo (I think it serves 6 or 7 people) in the Bolognese Apennines. Fairly typical first courses, mountain crescentine, huge and slightly crunchy...all decent for 25-30 euros. The wine by the glass is good.

Excellent value for money. The 30-40 cm crescentina is truly excellent (fragrant and not very greasy). I highly recommend it. The cured meats, pickled vegetables, and so on are all delicious. The service is excellent. The location is quiet. I highly recommend it.

A traditional trattoria in a charming little village with excellent, simple dishes, including excellent crescentine, served with a smile. The outdoor pergola is lovely.

The specialty is the Crescentona with cured meats, cheeses, and pickled vegetables. All the ingredients are homemade and of excellent quality, but we found the price a bit steep (€39 for two). We also ordered tagliatelle with porcini mushrooms; for the area, we expected better, but in this case the price was right (€11).

A place where courtesy, cleanliness, and authenticity are paramount, in an Apennine setting, you'll find this simple yet absolutely unpretentious establishment. After sampling the bean and spelt soup, each of us indulged in an interesting and quality selection of first courses. Homemade bread made with local flours. Then, you can't help but try the crescentone served with cured meats, crescenza, a delicious homemade giardiniera, an Oscar-winning friggione, and homemade jam and hazelnut spread. Homemade desserts round out the meal. We'll definitely be back. After so many well-deserved compliments, we also have two small pieces of advice that we're sure will be taken constructively. The cold cuts, aside from the homemade pork loin, didn't seem to be up to the quality of everything else. In addition to prosciutto and dried sausage, we would have liked to have cracklings, pancetta, and coppa di testa. There's a difference between an illustrated lemon sorbet and a scoop of lemon ice cream. We'll be happy to see you next time, but this time we'll try to limit the loud music. Thank you.

A quiet, family-friendly place in the small, magical Roncastaldo. Always remember to book before you go. They offer delicious traditional dishes, including very good fresh pasta in generous portions. Angela's specialty is the crescentona. It's served with excellent homemade giardiniera, superb friggione, delicious homemade pork loin, and a selection of cold cuts. This is the sore point: the cold cuts are unfortunately of average quality. If they were excellent, I think Angela would be unrivaled because the prices are reasonable and the crescentona is unique and delicious. The desserts are also very good and authentic.

Trattoria con cibo casalinga e con proprietaria gentilissima. Da provare la specialità, la Crescentino, accompagnata da salumi.formaggio, giardiniera ottima, friggione strepitoso, marmellata e salsa di nocciola squisite. Ottimi anche i primi. Ci torneremo sicuramente.

La crescenta fritta squisita affettati buoni e giardiniera meravigliosa come il friggione. Ho anche acquistato dei loro prodotti. Proprietaria troppo carina. Una trattoria davvero trattoria come non se ne trovano più. Torneró per assaggiare altre cose.
