I migliori ristoranti in Bologna

08/11/2025: First time dining there. Table for four, two couples. The restaurant has the distinction of being a social trattoria, nestled in the Villa Pini park on Via del Carpentiere, behind the Unipol skyscraper. Being Friday, November 7th, we dined inside due to the low temperatures, but there are plenty of tables outside, making it perfect for the warmer months. The atmosphere is rustic and clean, free of kitchen odors. A young man, Fabrizio, welcomed us and introduced us to the restaurant, introducing the new menu, full of interesting dishes. We opted for a small platter of cold cuts/cheeses with crescentine. Excellent! Soft, not very greasy, tasty, very good cold cuts, accompanied by friggione, which had been simmering for hours, excellent. While sampling the first courses, we ordered four different ones. Classic lasagna, excellent. Cacio e pepe tortelloni, crispy guanciale, fantastic! Roasted potato, pumpkin, and friggione ravioli, sweet for the onion, excellent. Gorgonzola gnocchi, creamy, excellent. For the main course, we didn't hold back. For two, we stuck to the classics for a test of the Bolognese cutlet. It passed, perfectly made, thank goodness, without the cream that's so common in restaurants these days, plentiful and excellent, served with baked potatoes. The knife-cut tartare, with a classic dressing, excellent, served on a bed of mixed salad. The tagliata, ordered medium rare (perfectly cooked), tender and tasty, served with sautéed mushrooms on the side. Desserts, only two. A cream ice cream, excellent, and a zuppa inglese, devoured. Toward the end of dinner, Federico, Fabrizio's colleague, showed up in the dining room and asked how the dinner went, walking around the tables. We confirmed the excellent dinner and the excellent service from the girl who accompanied us for the evening, our dishes. Absolutely reasonable, considering the quality, quantity, and price. Just under €39 per person, with two bottles of wine—a Prosecco and a Merlot—plus two complimentary coffees and liqueurs. We'll definitely be back. A place "just beyond" the ring road, surrounded by greenery, with ample parking. Well done! Everyone! From the dining room to the kitchen. I apologize if you don't have any photos, but between chatting and hunger, we forgot about it. See you next time.

08/11/2025: Excellent food and super service. A beautiful place for social principles too.

21/11/2025: The calzones and piadinas are delicious, but the real gem in my opinion is the hamburger, one of the best in Imola ❤️ try it and believe it! Special mention also for the first courses!!!

20/09/2025: I've had takeout from Buona Idea several times. The piadina is always good, and the staff is friendly and super helpful!

17/12/2025: I followed the advice of the waitress Angela, and I must say it turned out excellent. I chose a sampling of two first courses as half portions, and the flavors were intense and very distinct. The first course alone left me full. The atmosphere is clean and very charming, with rose-shaped chandeliers that perfectly reflect the restaurant's name.

16/12/2025: We had the best meal ever. Angela and Orazio were amazing

02/07/2025: very good pastries and different varierties. generous also as we were given two birra as regalo.

10/09/2025: Stopped by for lunch, great food, quick and cheap.

11/07/2025: Excellent food, very good price, friendly and welcoming staff

01/12/2025: I have to revise my review. I used to appreciate the place and the food, but now it seems to be getting worse. It's a shame, but the portions are small and not particularly good. It's a shame the menu is unusual. I'd like to try again because the place is very welcoming.

20/11/2025: Delicious place in the center of Bologna Unfortunately, I don't have any photos because everything was so good that I didn't have time 🤭 Appetizer: Cantabrian anchovies on a bed of stracciatella cheese, followed by a huge, super-delicious and light fried fish platter. Fresh fish in the center of Bologna 👏🏼

20/10/2025: The atmosphere is great, the service is excellent, the food is delicious, the lasagna is subpar, I didn't like the cutlet, the desserts are good. The price is right.

20/10/2025: The negative service experience certainly isn't attributable to the waiters, but rather to the long wait for the main course. We arrived at the restaurant around 1:00 PM: The first courses were served almost immediately, while the second courses didn't arrive until around 3:10 PM, despite two reminders within two hours. I understand the confusion and appreciate the apology, but it certainly wasn't a pleasant experience, especially since we had a return flight to Sicily and had to cancel our plans before our departure. I certainly recommend the restaurant, but I also advise the restaurant owners to reserve fewer seats so as to accommodate the needs of the dining room without causing disruption to their customers.

23/11/2025: The best pizza in Imola. The best takeout pizza. Great, friendly, and always on time. Greetings from Cremonini!!!

24/07/2025: Friendly, kind, and skilled, they never miss a beat. Never a mistake and always on time. I always order CREMONINI! They're a sure thing every week!!! Well done! Wonderful pizza, the only one that makes us feel good the next day.

09/11/2025: Wonderful place

06/11/2025: What a lovely restaurant! We sat inside as it was a bit too chilly in November. I couldn't decide what to order and received excellent advice. I'd gladly come back anytime.

12/08/2025: There is professionalism and quality here too.

01/07/2025: The best place to eat fish: very fresh, very good, lots of variety, from oysters to mussels, clams, tuna, sole, sea bream, sea bass, monkfish, shrimp, calamari, scallops, cooked in all ways. Magnificent mussels au gratin. Impeccable service and lots of courtesy. At Timy you can never go wrong

02/12/2025: It's an authentic trattoria, one that immediately conveys the warmth and tradition of local cuisine. Everything here is typical of the area and...even rarer...truly homemade. From the starters to the desserts, you can taste the care and passion in every dish 😍 Everything is delicious, but the ragù deserves a special mention; it's simply out of this world! Rich, flavorful, perfectly balanced...one of those sauces that alone is worth the visit. If you're looking for a welcoming place where you can eat truly well, this is a surefire choice!

26/11/2025: Good and plentiful food, but prices always rise a little

07/12/2025: Very good pizza. The place was small for the huge number of people there.

28/11/2025: Exceptional pizza, friendly and courteous staff.

20/11/2025: Thank you for all the pasta you introduced me to this week. You were so kind, and it was a really good experience

11/10/2025: Thanks to Alexandra's great people skills and deep knowledge about pasta/food my family and I made wonderful lifelong memories of making pasta in Bologna Italy. It was truly a wonderful experience and a great dinner too. We made the tagliatelle and tortelloni pasta starting from flour and egg and the filling starting from ricotta and parmigiano reggiano. The final dishes, tortelloni with butter sage sauce (with sage leaves straight from the plant growing in the kitchen) and tagliatelle with ragù bolognese (and wine, if course), made an unforgettably wonderful dinner. If this wasn't enough, during the dinner we also had interesting and entertaining conversation with Alexandra. To top it all off, Alexandra emailed us very professionally written recipes of the food we made. It all was such a great experience. If any if this sounds like something you would enjoy, I highly recommend doing a pasta class at pasta lab.

14/11/2025: Excellent experience. Every time we come to Imola, it's a must-visit. The quality and courtesy are top notch.

20/06/2025: The best buffalo mozzarella from Imola is here.
