Osteria Francescana In Modena

I had a great experience at Osteria Francescana. Service is leisurely, maybe even slow, but attentive and it really helps you appreciate every mouthful. They offer a set tasting menu which we had and also an a la carte option with different dishes if you really want to pick and choose. My only disappointment was some of the chefs more famous dishes were only available a la carte and I would have liked at least 1 or 2 to be included in the set menu.

It's not the first starred restaurant I've been to, the note that has always distinguished everyone is that I retain a pleasant memory of a particular dish in each one. In the case of Bottura I tried the tasting menu, none of the dishes pleasantly impressed me or left a particular culinary memory in me. Perhaps the expectation being Bottura was too high, I assign the three stars more for the name of Bottura than for the culinary experience. I give the service five stars exclusively for the commitment made by the waiters, even if with a very scholastic calibration with an absence of personalism, which you also expect from a three Michelin star. Even the bill does not reflect the culinary journey, furthermore it would have been a note of attention to the customer not to charge for water. Finally, out of simple curiosity I wanted to see the type of table under the tablecloths, the disappointment was to find a classic table with laminar plywood, you don't expect that from a three star hotel. It's definitely not an experience I would want to try again.

Refined cuisine in a refined environment. You are pampered.

It's the place you expect! A refined, refined cuisine with surprising combinations! The rooms are elegant and the choice of works of art that enrich the walls are a very welcome plus, it can be said that it is an experience for almost all the senses. The staff is professional, friendly and also friendly. All honors are deserved.

Concerned by some negative comments, I was pleasantly surprised by a tasting menu that represents a journey that encompasses many different countries. Delicious flavors, harmonious and never excessive, I feel satisfied. We expect a lot from a three-star restaurant and sometimes our desire is not fulfilled, so we are disappointed, but a chef is not a magician, he is a human being who tries to give emotions through his dishes, and he cannot impress everyone in the same way. Chef Bottura is an exceptional person and has an incredible talent, obviously the cost, like in any other three star restaurant, is demanding, but in my opinion it is worth it and also the trip since I don't live in Modena. The welcome is perfect, the service is impeccable, even if they didn't set the table in favor of left-handers, the place is simple and elegant.

If you are ever lucky enough to be in Modena, you cannot miss the opportunity to dine at "Osteria Francescana". This restaurant, directed by chef Massimo Bottura, is a true temple of gastronomy. The food is not only delicious, but it is an artistic experience that plays with flavors and textures in an impressive way. Each dish is a masterpiece, and the tasting menu is a great way to try a variety of their innovative creations. The service is impeccable, with highly trained staff guiding you through the dining experience. It is a perfect place for lovers of haute cuisine and definitely one of the best restaurants in the world. An experience that will not be forgotten!

Absolutely insane food and service. An Unforgettable experience. We will be back.

The best in the world. A journey through the flavors of the world with a Modenese twist.

L' ambiente è apparentemente elegante, ma la moquette lo rende un pò demodè. Il menù ovviamente è ottimo in tutte le declinazioni, anche se i piatti tradizionali sono stranamente esclusi e non esiste un menù della tradizione per assaggiare i migliori piatti storici. Ottima la scelta dei vini, anche al calice.. senza costi esagerati

Ritorno dopo molti anni all’Osteria Francescana, portandomi il ricordo non eccezionale di un menù tradizione che non mi aveva soddisfatto e di un servizio supponente. Oggi tutt’altra cosa. L’accoglienza è perfetta, il menù degustazione fatto di piatti deliziosi, una sommelier bravissima, il servizio eccellente. Tutto degno della fama e pienamente meritevole di tutto ciò che di buono si dice di questo ristorante. E sono molto felice che il mio nuovo ricordo sarà di una cena meravigliosa.
