Tre Pozzi In Noceto

PREMISE - My opinion refers only to the restaurant, as the property had redirected us to the B&B In Villa due to a fault in the air conditioning system here. Correctness had already paid off. The restaurant - in a strategic position, let's say, as it is located on the Via Emilia - has a large parking lot where you will find both guests' cars and transport trucks. The interior left me perplexed at first: decidedly old and very used and worn furniture, walls with heavy stucco brushed reliefs from the 60s/70s as was everywhere else. However, shortly after I deliberately changed my reasoning: what do you go to a restaurant for, immodestly quoting the great critic Valerio Massimo Visintin? To EAT, well hopefully and here everything goes in this direction. If instead you are looking for or love fluff - conceptual and gastronomic visual - go ahead and try the sad multi-starred ones. Not a brain-twisting menu, 5/6 courses for each proposal from appetizers to desserts, substance, quality, small touches of elegance to be sought rather than ostentatious, local products, excellent cuisine. Sometimes you wait a long time between one course and the next but this too is, must be a reason for reflection, as everything is expressed, everything is taken care of, well advised and served. A second course shared with my wife has practically become a large portion per person. I mention among the choices: river shrimp in a bed of basil mayonnaise, anolini stuffed with parmesan in broth (hot, very welcome despite the African temperatures of these days), Parma ham with fried cake which is none other than the classic gnocco or cencio called Tuscan style, very fresh and tasty tortelli d'erbetta, tagliolini with red mullet ragù and light tomato (!), stellar desserts with the plus of a small plate of petite patisserie in addition. Good cellar and offer. The service is kind, present, polite and efficient, the prices absolutely in line with those in the area and very convenient for what is offered.

Place a bit dated but well kept, very clean, rooms with luxurious furnishings. extremely welcoming staff and then the dinner... SUPERLATIVE!
