Self Service Ghirlandina In Modena

Normal food at a reasonable price, nothing exceptional, standard self-service

You eat well, plentifully, and you pay little

Great budget option in the center. Well stocked canteen with a varied menu, which can be viewed online.

An excellent canteen!!!! Luckily there is a salvation for those who work in the center and don't want to get ripped off by trendy places with mediocre food and high prices.

We organized a couple of group dinners of 50 people, reserving the entire place.

I often go to this place for lunch and I find it overall good. Wide choice of dishes, generous portions and more than good quality. Always very helpful and kind staff, adequate quality/price ratio, large availability of space (even if the room next to the kitchen is not very heated). The only big, indeed very big flaw: the presence of only one cash register!!! Even on "normal" days it is practically impossible not to waste a lot of time in line and therefore often eat dishes that are little more than lukewarm.

Good choice if you need to have lunch after university or work. The dishes are good, but I think they serve a fixed menu at a more competitive price than other canteens. I think 12.50 is too high, also considering that in the second courses you can only choose between meat. By consuming normally, you also pay the cover charge and here too I disagree, given that we are in a canteen.

Good food apart from the fact that it is impossible for me to have fish main courses because they are ALWAYS prepared with olives which I don't like. Service to be improved: waiting up to 30/40 minutes to get to the checkout. The online service is a good idea but you can only pay by credit card and not with company cards so it's unusable as far as I'm concerned.
