Il Vecchio Comune

Once off the main road, follow a series of twists and turns uphill to reach the village of Acquapartita, at an altitude of almost 800m, where you’ll find one of the best restaurants in the region. Here, the Bravaccini brothers are at the helm, with chef Simone creating dishes that are proudly focused on local ingredients such as mushrooms, trout and game. His signature dish of wild boar is delicious and full of flavour – the meat is sliced tartare-style so that it cooks quickly and is then served covered with soft mashed potatoes sprinkled with juniper. Front of house, his friendly and skilful

In a charming hamlet just outside Galeata, the entrance opens onto a small, pretty courtyard that in summer leads to outdoor tables beside the church, shaded by trees and facing the hills: a truly idyllic setting. The cuisine is rooted in the local territory, which here means not only Romagna but also echoes of the neighboring Marche and, above all, Tuscany – as in a memorable lampredotto with porcini mushrooms, tasted on our most recent late‑summer visit. In the adjoining shop, guests can purchase products prepared in the restaurant’s own workshop, while a few guest rooms are also available.

The home of Claudia and Riccardo, Il Piastrino is the realization of a long‑nurtured dream, lovingly refined and enriched year after year amid the rolling hills of Montefeltro. Here, the warmth and simplicity of the countryside blend harmoniously with contemporary details and furnishings. At the heart of it all is chef Agostini’s cuisine which, supported by technical mastery and creativity, brings out the best in seasonal, locally sourced ingredients.

At the entrance of the village of Moggiona, along the road connecting Camaldoli to Poppi, Il Cedro welcomes you with homely aromas and genuine flavors. Mariangela and Cristina – one in the dining room, the other in the kitchen – share the Tuscan tradition with enthusiasm and warmth, offering rustic dishes, sincere smiles, and a family-like atmosphere.

Situated in the elegant Relais Villa Margherita, an 18C villa converted into a stylish residence with just six guestrooms, verdant grounds and a swimming pool, Magnolia occupies a contemporary, veranda-style dining room with large picture windows boasting sweeping views of the Romagna hills as far as the mountainous “peak” of San Marino. Here, skilful chef Alberto Faccani serves a clever combination of the classic favourites that have marked his career, alongside other more unusual dishes that demonstrate a tireless search for experimentation. His contemporary style is elegant and balanced, as

In a hamlet of Novafeltria, lthe road that winds upward through the Apennines between Romagna and the Marche is home to this modest gem, where the Romagnan tradition is savoured in all its simplicity and goodness: handmade sfoglia for the pasta, main courses featuring local meats, and daily specials that follow the seasons. Not to be missed are the fried porcini mushrooms and the tortelloni of green pasta filled with ricotta and spinach, dressed with butter and truffle.

In business since 1970, San Domenico is one of the flag-bearers of classic Italian dining. In the historic centre of Imola, inside you will find a succession of elegant rooms and an atmosphere that seems straight out of an English club. The menu alternates classic dishes accumulated over many years of activity with some more modern inventions from chef Massimiliano Mascia. An extraordinary wine list features more than two thousand labels.
