La Nunziadêina

€€€Emilian, Grills

A landmark occasion: in 2026, the fourth generation celebrated one hundred years of history of this establishment, also with its inclusion in the Guide. The venture was first set in motion by Annunciata in Cittanova, before closing in 2002 and reopening four years later at its present address, directly opposite the magnificent Abbey of Nonantola, taking on the name that had long served as its founder’s nickname: Nunziadêina. Since then, the common thread has remained the same: the delicacies and indulgent treats of Emilia-Romagna.The dining rooms are homely, yet attentive to detail; fresh flow

TripAdvisor review sample · 4.5/5 · 80 reviews

Located near the Abbey of Nonantola, La Nunziadêina specializes in Emilian cuisine and grills. Reviews highlight high food quality, particularly for tortellini and grilled items, alongside professional service and an elegant, private atmosphere. However, value is a frequent point of contention; some guests find portions small relative to the cost, while others report a decline in recent service and dish quality. While the ambiance is consistently praised as refined, the overall experience varies significantly regarding perceived worth.

Suitable for diners seeking refined Emilian cuisine and an elegant setting, though those sensitive to value may want to manage expectations.

Il Grano di Pepe

€€€Seafood, Mediterranean Cuisine

While you’re trying to decide between the tasting menu and the à la carte at this restaurant, you can tuck into its excellent bread, including the “sfincione” – a type of tomato-flavoured focaccia from Palermo which makes the journey here worthwhile on its own! If fish is your preference, we recommend the “Palermo and Marseille” fish stew, an intense dish full of bold and delicious flavours. Minimalist decor and a friendly welcome from chef Rino Duca complete the picture.

Il Grano di Pepe in Ravarino offers Mediterranean seafood and creative cuisine, holding a 4.1/5 rating from 80 reviews. Food quality is generally praised for fresh ingredients and meticulous preparation, with highlights like Sicilian bluefin tuna and cannoli. However, some guests found portions modest for a tasting menu. Service is noted as friendly and attentive, including gluten-free accommodations, but slow pacing between courses is a frequent complaint. The intimate atmosphere requires reservations due to limited seating. Value perceptions vary; while many appreciate the refinement, others feel the pricing is high relative to portion sizes.

Ideal for diners seeking refined seafood and creative cuisine; reservations are essential and allow extra time for pacing.
