Trattoria La Candela In Imola

17/11/2025: An old-fashioned trattoria just off the highway, with a kind and attentive owner. The atmosphere is dated, but the food was overall good. Some dishes weren't exactly exciting, others were acceptable. The tortellini and grilled rabbit were good; the broth was flavorful and the rabbit was well-cooked. The bread was different from the usual, unsalted, perhaps a characteristic of the area. The porcini mushroom tagliatelle sauce wasn't the best; I expected nice chunks of fresh porcini mushrooms, given the time of year and the mountainous location. All in all, for a quick stop, it was definitely better than the motorway service station.

19/10/2025: Fantastic dinner Excellent homemade first courses and meat-based second courses. The atmosphere was quiet, the staff were incredibly kind and helpful, and the quality/price ratio was excellent. We really enjoyed our stay and plan to return as soon as possible!
