I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina emiliana

23/02/2026: Amazing experience! The Chianti wine was to die for! Such a delicious tartufo pasta, still dreaming about it!!

22/02/2026: The food is delicious, the gnocco fritto is very good and the pasta is amazing

02/01/2026: This is our favorite place to dine. Excellent food. Went back multiple time to try as many items on the menu as possible. Strongly recomend. They are happy to make you vegan food as well and my wife said it was delicious!!

01/01/2026: The best pasta I've had in my life When you enter you can feel like at home Highly reccomended!

07/03/2026: Very quaint place, excellent service. I expected a little more flavor from the meat (game). Excellent winter coppa! Not for everyone (prices are not cheap).

06/03/2026: Excellent food, expertly selected wines, impeccable service!

22/02/2026: Wonderful experience: excellent food, excellent wine list, impeccable service. It's the best restaurant in Reggio Emilia!

11/02/2026: Warm, welcoming atmosphere. Helpful staff, near-perfect service. Food is good, but not excellent.

11/03/2026: Friendly staff and truly delicious Emilian cuisine (the gnocco and tiralle are top notch). Fantastic location!!

28/02/2026: A place with welcoming staff but a unique clientele. Prices are decidedly high for the quantity and quality offered. The cured meats for the appetizers were very thickly sliced ​​and didn't seem fresh. For the main course, I ended up with lamb ribs that tasted like fish. We spent €70 for two, which was definitely too much. The place isn't very clean.

21/02/2026: Always a guarantee. Everything is good, nothing excluded. Clear choice of daily menu and à la carte. If you like Fortsna del Taro as an aperitif: a great wine that is only produced in the area. Always a must when passing through Parma. P.S. The bread is a sublime delight; I'd say it's the best in the last three years. But where is that baker? Even the bread itself tells the story of a restaurant's quality.

10/01/2026: Excellent restaurant with a typical local menu. Delicious and fragrant culatello. Also suitable for business lunches. Impeccable value for money.

28/12/2025: I was incredibly surprised by the flavors. I'll be back as soon as possible!

23/11/2025: Nice location, but unfortunately the service was extremely slow and unfriendly. After a 3-hour wait, we finished lunch and ended up with a rather unpleasant bill. A great disappointment because we had a very positive experience at the same restaurant a year ago.

09/06/2025: A big hello and I hope to see you again at Cecilia (the best tortellini I've ever eaten) from Romano

05/06/2025: I am so sad this place is closed. I am traveling to that are area in 2 weeks and was so looking forward to being there. I am American and was introduced to this restaurant and owner by my friend Marco and always loved everything about this place, especially the lasagna (once made for us) and the tortellini. My best to the owner and her family.

29/11/2025: A spectacular location inside Formigine Castle. Excellent service.

27/11/2025: We dined at Calcagno with our family and found the food to be excellent, with attentive and appropriate preparation for our two-year-old, courteous staff, and a pleasant, relaxing atmosphere. We were also treated to a delicious entrée and a truly superb digestif (a spoonful of sugar)! The price is a bit high, but given the many positives, it's worth it every now and then.

10/03/2026: Finally, a place with friendly girls. We stopped for a quick coffee; it was crowded, but we were still greeted with a smile and kindness.

06/03/2026: Hospitality, good food, good manners, and professionalism. Rare ingredients that I always find here.

16/02/2026: Classic traditional Reggio Emilia place with a good variety of first and second courses, including vegetarian ones. The service girls are very good and fast. Everything is fine, I would say, apart from the background noise. We were in a small room with about fifteen people and it was difficult to talk to the person next door.

15/02/2026: The food was okay, no complaints. Definitely avoid the gnocco and tigelle. The four of us ordered 15 tigelle, five pieces of gnocco and cured meats, a bottle of wine, two appetizers, and two chizze, for a total of over €100. The problem was the cured meats. For 20 pieces of gnocco and tigelle, they charged us €48 for a cured meat platter, which was absolutely out of line, and the quality was also very poor. Really bad.

12/02/2026: Stopped by with a friend on a Saturday for lunch. The owner was incredibly helpful in finding us a table even though we hadn't booked. The place immediately evokes the feel of a 1970s club. Despite everything, the tables are set with impeccable professionalism. The cuisine is the same as it used to be, as we used to eat at our grandparents' house on holidays. The dishes are tasty but well-proportioned, neither minute nor overdone. A must-try is the cart of fantastic boiled meats; watching them arrive reveals the quality of the ingredients, accompanied by succulent sauces and pickled vegetables, also reminiscent of past flavors. The Lambrusco is one of those dark ones that stain the glass. The price is standard for Reggio Emilia, but it's not cheap. The service is attentive and meticulous.

07/02/2026: Title: EMBARRASSMENT AND CRAZY PRICES. RUN AWAY. Review: I strongly advise against this place to anyone who doesn't want to be ripped off. There were eight of us here and we paid €43 each, an outrageous sum for the service we received. The lack of transparency was total: we weren't given a menu, a tactic clearly designed to hide the prices before the bill. The appetizer was an insult: €20 per person for a ridiculous little plate with three slices of prosciutto, two of salami, and two of coppa, plus some mortadella and parmesan in the center of the table. Paying €160 for appetizers alone for such a paltry amount is madness that can't be justified in any restaurant in the area. The wine management was also terrible: two bottles of Lambrusco were served already opened (a totally unfair practice) and had an undrinkable iron-like taste. The worst moment was at the register: after we complained about the price of our appetizer, the manager tried to give us €40 back in cash to settle the matter. A pitiful gesture that confirms their bad faith: they knew full well they'd inflated the bill, hoping we wouldn't say anything.

28/02/2026: If you're passing through Bologna and want an authentic, no-frills Emilian experience, you absolutely must stop by Polpette e Crescentine. We started with a selection of appetizers that could only be described as generous. The baskets of crescentine and tigelle arrived hot and fragrant, perfect paired with a platter of excellent cured meats and a truly refined selection of cheeses, including the Pecorino Perla Nera and Caciotta di Monteveglio, served with honey. The real highlight of the appetizers, however, was the incredibly soft mortadella mousse and the creamy squacquerone, which pairs perfectly with the warm crescentine. We couldn't miss out on the Modena pesto, and for pure indulgence, we added the fried tortellini: a true revelation, crispy on the outside and flavorful in the middle, so delicious you can't wait to try them again. For the first course, I went for the classic tagliatelle with Bolognese ragù. The pasta was clearly fresh, with just the right texture to hold the flavorful ragù, cooked slowly as tradition dictates. It truly tastes like home. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff makes you feel immediately at ease. It's the ideal place if you're looking for the substance and authentic flavors of Bolognese cuisine. We'll definitely be back to try the meatballs!

22/02/2026: Greasy and heavy crescentine, terrible meatballs (and thank goodness it's called that!) Desserts? Packaged Cameo cake passed off as tenerina, and if you really want to have fun, try the mascarpone! Tap water charged as if it were bottled, and the place is noisy and dirty. I'll spare you the comment about the bathrooms, which are better. Last but not least... as mentioned in other reviews, the price is too high for the low quality. Never again!

27/02/2026: A pleasant surprise. Highly recommended.

27/02/2026: I was very happy to try the famous lasagna in this restaurant. I was most disappointed when I received a frozen, semi-prepared lasagna, which did not look at all like the one in the restaurant review. My friend ordered Cotolette di pollo, receiving two frozen schnitzels as well…… the potatoes on the side were good and the sauce. Also, his menu included salad, which he did not receive. The welcome was nice, but I do not understand why our experience was with frozen food…. If you do not have any more, tell me and I will order something else, do not bring me something fast, frozen. Sad…. Probably because we are tourists….
