I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina modenese

17/07/2026: I think it couldn't get any better. Passing by, we booked for dinner. The welcome was warm, but during dinner, chatting with the owner made it feel almost like home. The dishes were excellent, and the prices were fair. There's no need to look any further!

15/07/2026: Always the best of Modena tradition!!!

17/07/2026: Truly excellent tagliatelle with ragù Comfortable, homey atmosphere Simple but attentive service Friendly and helpful staff

13/07/2026: I've been to this restaurant several times over the years and have always enjoyed it. For this very reason, the last time I was disappointed was even greater. There were three of us for lunch and we ordered two tortelloni, one tagliatella, one baked ham, some involtini, and a carpaccio, along with a bottle of still water, one sparkling water, half a liter of house wine, and three coffees. No dessert. The bill was €100 (it was originally supposed to be €108). I honestly find this price completely disproportionate to what we ate. Spending over €30 per person for a lunch like this, in such a simple location, seems excessive. If at least the place were particularly well-kept or the service impeccable, I could understand it, but that's not the case here. The place could use more maintenance: for example, the bathroom door was broken, and overall the ambiance absolutely doesn't justify such a high price. The service was also disappointing: the potatoes arrived after we had already finished our main courses. I'm sorry to write this review because I've always had a great experience in the past, but this time, the value for money was, in my opinion, truly unjustifiable. At €100 for three people, I definitely expect a different experience.

02/06/2026: Good pasta, we loved the lasagna. Friendly staff, mostly Italians eat here. We had lunch and spent just over 20 euro per person.

30/05/2026: What a wonderful place! The staff were so kind and helpful, the atmosphere was busy and joyful, and our lunch was incredible! If you're visiting Modena, do whatever it takes to stop here for lunch.

03/07/2026: A must visit. Very friendly and helpful staff. The food is traditional, local and is just perfect. They have an excellent selection of wines. Informal atmosphere, come as you are !

01/07/2026: The place is tiny, so small that if you have to go in you have to be careful not to hurt anyone. The service is very questionable, with some waitresses being very helpful and others being rude. There were four of us and we ate at very different times (which is really annoying). The table was covered in crumbs, the picture was smeared with sauce. The pasta was barely adequate, which I think is a flaw for a Modena trattoria. The bread was very rubbery. The quality/price ratio was disappointing.

22/07/2026: Amazing experience... divine food... the waiter is hilarious... very good value for money... we were lucky enough to find a day where it wasn't too hot on the veranda... the owner was professional and friendly... An experience to repeat

18/07/2026: A typical Emilia-Romagna trattoria, with exquisite dishes, prepared with the care of home cooking, everything delicious, the cured meats superb, the appetizers delicious and fresh, and what can I say about the first courses? Stuffed pasta with top-notch sauces 🔝, the boiled meat trolley superb, and the second courses, each one better than the last, truly something for everyone. A special mention also for the desserts, strictly homemade. Excellent value for money, in line with the type of place. Absolutely recommended; in fact, I'd say you could even go there specifically for this place.

18/04/2026: A small, simple trattoria with excellent food. The menu features traditional Modenese dishes that are of a high standard, but for dessert, you absolutely must try the cannoli or cassata, which are sourced directly from Sicily (the owners' home region). We had a wonderful time here for a quiet family lunch.

12/04/2026: I've been going there for years and the food is still very good.

18/07/2026: Lunch with the family today. Traditional dishes, simplicity, and courtesy make this place a must-visit. We'll be back on our next trip out of the region, perhaps in the winter. Thanks, great experience.

11/07/2026: Excellent food and plenty of it, super friendly staff, fair prices, and a lovely atmosphere! Highly recommended!

07/07/2026: Excellent food, service too, we were sitting outside, the waiter is the best

04/07/2026: My suggestions: - fried gnocco - tagliatelline with ragu - roasted suckling pig and roast potatoes

18/04/2026: A special Saturday, topped off with a superb lunch in Modena: tortellini, cured meats, warm piadinas, Lambrusco, and more, all with top-notch waiters and service. Highly recommended

12/04/2026: Excellent experience, a true Modena delight!

20/06/2026: Sat outside on the patio and enjoyed a great lunch with a wonderful Lambrusco. Great opportunity to try local cuisine in a casual environment, and everything was delicious.

19/06/2026: A very pleasant restaurant, a benchmark in Modena. The establishment offers a selection of specialties, all of very high quality, at a reasonable price. The service is outstanding. A very good restaurant to try.

13/05/2026: The best of the best of the best of Modena's tradition. Tortellini and a trolley of boiled meats are mind-blowing. Simply the best. We go there for special occasions but also for dinners with friends. Best to book to secure a table.

26/04/2026: Between the meat, sauces, and shortbread, all excellent, the boiled meats cart is perhaps the best I've ever eaten! The only shame is that the first courses weren't exactly thrilling. I'll be back!

20/05/2026: Had lunch with friends, everything was excellent. The fried gnocco, tigelle, and cured meats were delicious. We'll be back.

17/05/2026: Overall, a decent experience: the food wasn't bad, and some dishes were even good, especially the starters. The wait was a bit long, and the tigelle were too full of pasta. The bill seemed decidedly high for what we ate: €64 without a receipt (a fake receipt), which left me a bit perplexed. I'm fine with them doing business under the table, but since they're saving on taxes, they could at least have offered a discount. Overall, the quality-price ratio needs to be reconsidered, in my opinion.

02/06/2026: A true highlight of our trip to Modena - a fantastic host, wonderful food - indeed an experience not to be missed.

25/05/2026: The atmosphere is family-friendly and the food is top-notch. We took advice from the excellent Ada and left the small restaurant feeling incredibly satisfied. Aside from the bloated belly, we hope to return soon.

07/05/2026: For 35 euros per person I was very satisfied even if at the beginning it was not very clear that the menu was fixed and without the possibility of choice... very friendly and attentive staff

02/05/2026: We were passing through Modena on a road trip and were simply looking for a place near the highway to grab a quick lunch before heading back. We stumbled upon this "osteria," and upon arrival, we were greeted by the owner in front of a charming farmhouse. It's a shame that from there, more of a show than a meal begins. The owner immediately begins with long, nostalgic tales about the inn's past, the supposed excellence of the cuisine, and the fact that the menu was "designed specifically for the day." It's a shame that reading other reviews is enough to realize that the menu is practically always the same: the narrative seems part of a charade designed to sell authenticity where there is little authenticity. The real problem is that here, the customer doesn't order: the owner decides. We tried several times to ask for certain dishes and were continually interrupted or corrected, with inappropriate comments about how "we eat badly." After much persuasion, they finally brought us what we had asked for, almost as if they were doing us a favor. The famous "handmade" tortelli are honestly not the least bit convincing: all perfectly identical, industrial in appearance, and above all, hard and of mediocre quality. Some of us ordered meatballs with mashed potatoes that were completely bland, flavorless, and even visually unappealing. Meanwhile, the rambling monologues continued about the history of the place and the supposed special May Day menu, which clearly wasn't special. We skipped dessert. The coffee, billed almost as a gourmet experience simply because "they make it," was awful and not even a noteworthy espresso. The icing on the cake: a cherry wine that was simply undrinkable. Another unpleasant experience at the register, with problems paying by card and a completely unjustified bill: around €30 per person despite not ordering full menus, with some people eating only one dish and not even having coffee. Honestly, I struggle to understand how this place gets five-star reviews. More than a tavern, it seems like a play built on stories, fake tradition, and highly questionable quality. One of the worst gastronomic experiences I've ever had in Emilia Romagna.
