Under the majestic vaulted ceiling of Palazzo Dondini Ghiselli and in the shade of an old plane tree, this restaurant combines a simple ambience with an innovative concept. Here, guests can enjoy typical seafood dishes from Romagna – don’t miss the delicious sardines sautéed in oil and lemon, which are a real treat!

Trattoria di Via Serra

RestaurantBib Gourmand€Veg1.5 km

It’s well worth heading off the traditional tourist trail to experience this simple and informal trattoria in Bolognina, the city’s historic working-class district which now has a very multicultural feel. Run by a friendly owner, with his talented business partner at the helm in the kitchen, the restaurant boasts a welcoming and friendly ambience that has made it popular, so booking ahead is recommended, even at lunchtime. Top-quality regional cuisine is celebrated here, from fresh pasta (excellent tortellini in broth) to zuppa inglese (a type of trifle).

Al Cambio

RestaurantBib Gourmand€€3.9 km

Situated off the usual tourist trail, Al Cambio serves authentic Bolognese cuisine (as well as other dishes) with a focus on traditional, seasonal meat and fish dishes. So if you’re looking for a genuinely local culinary experience, leave the city centre and allow chef Matteo Poggi to delight you with his cuisine. Don’t miss the guinea fowl breast with truffle-flavoured potatoes. The restaurant is often full, even at lunchtime, so booking ahead is highly recommended.

Sale Grosso

Restaurant€€123 m

This restaurant describes its cuisine as Mediterranean and it’s true that fish and seafood dominate the menu. However, other dishes also feature and during our visit we particularly enjoyed the carefully prepared fried artichoke heart accompanied by a fresh white Tuscan Montecarlo wine. Friendly, informal service in a simple dining room with a distinctive bistro feel.

Zivieri

Restaurant€€299 m

The produce of the hills come down into the city: this, in essence, is the restaurant. Within the mediaeval Torre Alberici, in the heart of the historic centre, the simple dining room furnished in a contemporary style showcases the produce that the Zivieri farm itself rears and cultivates in the Apennines. Regional cookery, therefore, of an excellent standard, with charcuterie and meats as the jewel in the crown, which moreover can also be purchased, along with cheeses and other foods, from their adjacent butcher’s shop.

I Carracci

Restaurant€€€351 m

"After leaving the lobby of the luxurious Grand Hotel Majestic, you come to the restaurant, adorned by a 17th century fresco from the Carracci school. This is the restaurant for grand occasions and, under the guidance of chef Agostino Schettino, also for outstanding cuisine. From Castellammare di Stabia in Campania, the chef presents a menu featuring a succession of references to the cuisines of Emilia and Naples: two of Italy's most renowned culinary traditions sit at the same table to create a truly extraordinary result.
