Trattoria da Amerigo

Emilian, Regional Cuisine · ★ Michelin

€€

Situated in the hills immediately outside Bologna, Amerigo pays tribute to the typical Italian trattoria, taking guests on a nostalgic journey back to a time that will be familiar to all Italians and not just the inhabitants of Emilia. Just a few metres from the main square, the restaurant’s entrance is via its own shop selling wine, sauces and other delicacies. From here, you enter the dining room which leads to two further rooms on the first floor, one of which was home to the first television in the village, now decorated with period ornaments. Alberto Bettini’s menu is typical of Emilia an

Casa Mazzucchelli

€€€

At certain times of day, the tempting aroma of freshly baked bread greets you as soon as you step into this restaurant, leaving you in no doubt as to the nature of the restaurant’s newest venture. Other dishes are also baked in the oven here, such as wild boar served with a red wine babà and sage mayonnaise. There are two tasting menus available (Attimi di cucina and Momento contemporaneo), both of which showcase traditionally influenced cuisine full of distinct flavours.

Cavallino

Emilian, Contemporary · ★ Michelin

In the rooms of an old farmhouse that “Drake” Enzo Ferrari purchased, along with the entire area now dedicated to the iconic Maranello factory and symbol of Italy in the world, to make it a company canteen later transformed from 1950 into a proper restaurant, today the creative vein of Massimo Bottura is expressed through the work of his student Riccardo Forapani and of Virginia Cattaneo. The most orthodox regional cuisine – the tortellini from Tortellante are unmissable – is therefore also represented with refined customizations, as with Mòdna, the Sachertorte in a customized version with sou

Vecchia Lama

Emilian, Meats and Grills · Bib

€€

A simple yet welcoming refuge in the woodlands of the Modenese Apennines, where the scent of truffle in season mingles with the aromas of Emilian and mountain specialties. In the dining room, Sara Ori greets guests with warmth and genuine smiles, while her parents orchestrate flavors in the kitchen: father at the helm of juicy, steaming meats, mother crafting hand-rolled pastas and fragrant desserts, among them a standout zuppa inglese, creamy and comforting. For those who relish the open road and sweeping vistas, the drive along the SP3 from Modena is well worth it: an hour of winding curves

The top floor of the Executive Spa Hotel opens up like a lounge suspended between the sky and the hills: fine dining by chef Mattia Trabetti overlooks an elegant rooftop, where glass walls let in soft light and a relaxing view of the Sanctuary of the Blessed Virgin of the Castle. Before sitting down, you can start – or end – the evening in the adjacent Cocktail Bar Aria, also up there, among reflections and panoramic views. There are two tasting menus (but each dish is also available à la carte): “Modena Safari” and the vegetarian “Emilia vegetale”. Browsing the menu, a small map shows the ori

Trattoria da Fagiolino

Tuscan, Traditional Cuisine · Bib

€€

An authentic family-run trattoria, the sort you’d love to have just round the corner, with simple and typically rustic dining rooms and a friendly atmosphere. The menu is firmly rooted in Tuscan tradition, featuring fragrant, unpretentious dishes served with no frills, made with the finest ingredients: from Florentine-style tripe to a wide selection of fresh, homemade pasta, not to mention a huge choice of meats. The restaurant’s specialities include mushrooms, which are featured in a number of dishes. The Inspector particularly enjoyed the apple and puff pastry rose with cinnamon ice cream, w

Antica Trattoria la Grotta dal 1918

regional · Bib

€

It takes a while to get here, along a road which wends its way through the hills, but the cuisine more than compensates for the journey. The food here is based on a careful choice of ingredients (including produce from the restaurant’s own farm) from as far away as the Apennines, with a few ingredients from elsewhere in Italy, with a focus on traditional recipes. Don’t miss the tortellini in brodo, or the game and truffles available in season.

Osteria Francescana

Creative, Italian Contemporary · ★★★ Michelin

€€€€

On arriving in Via Stella, one immediately senses how naturally this restaurant frees itself from frills and accolades, embracing instead a sober elegance, enhanced by major works of contemporary art that reflect Massimo Bottura’s personal passion. The same measured language returns in the kitchen, where greatness is expressed through control, balance and vision: a narrative that begins in Modena and Emilia before reaching towards the great international classics, reinterpreted by the chef with that playful lightness which reminds us that food should first and foremost be pleasure, memory and
