Rosticceria la Pradella In Modena

16/03/2026: We returned to Erbavoglio to try the tasting menu (in December). We were disappointed because we expected to try "new" flavors, and instead of eight courses, two were practically the same (sautéed radicchio with two creams). We honestly hoped there wouldn't be tortellini. We did the tasting to try new dishes. The "crispy" spaghetti was rubbery and bland, tasted burnt, and was inedible. The other dishes were good, but for the price we paid (€230 for two), we certainly expected much better. I wouldn't recommend it.

16/02/2026: Experience below expectations We had lunch at Erbavoglio, choosing an 8-course tasting menu for Valentine's Day. During the service, there were obvious organizational issues. So much so that we ate the first two courses in 40 minutes, followed by a generous half-hour wait, and finally a relay race for the remaining courses. I should point out that the wait was caused by an error: our dish was served at the next table—a rice dish that, in the rush, was brought to us without even a minute's cooking time. The young woman who served us explained what had happened and apologized, which was appreciated. The young man who was serving tables with her, however, was arrogant and rude, barely presenting the dishes. Regarding the quality of the food, I should point out that the ingredients were well chosen, but not excellent, as the dishes seemed more assembled than conceived. In fairness, I'll also mention what we appreciated. The chard casket with fava bean tempeh and carrot béarnaise was excellent, the vegan chocolate was delicious, and the music playlist was fabulous. The price of €85 was fair, but considering that you can eat at even Michelin-starred restaurants for around €100, this might be a skippable experience.
