We had a great dinner at Trattoria da Gianni. Fantastic service, we are not Italian speakers, but every thing was explained in English. Being five adults we shared 4 antipasti: mousse of mortadella and Parmesan served like strawberry ice cream and white chocolate, burratini and beef tartare marinated at the table to our taste. For main courses we all had Tagliatelle Al Ragu (Bolognese). We shared 3 excellent desserts. When we asked for details the chef came to our table and explained the difference in recipes between crème caramel and panna cotta. One of the best experiences we have had in an Italian restaurant, clearly a 5/5 experience. Including two bottles of the best local wine on the winelist, water, 2 x beer, 3 x coffee and 2 x grappa we payed only 52€ per person. That’s a bargain. Highly recommended

Being off the main thoroughfare, this trattoria was mostly patroned by locals, always a good sign.  The service was fantatsic and the waiters where happy to help with the menu. The menu was small which showed the care for the dishes on offer, and it was evident from the locals eating there that they were regulars - all good signs for what was to come. We settled on a bottle of white from the region and ordered the Tortellini filled with ricotta in a butter and sage sauce and the Maccheroncini culaccia e zucchini (maccheronin with ham and zucchininsauce).  Both were flavourful and offerred a tatse of the delicious home cooking of Bologna. Definitely worth a visit when in Bologna!

Made reservations via email quite easily! Service was fine dining and excellent. Food was delicious! The pasta was hand made. This place was in a tourist area but was not a tourist trap. Reasonably priced as well. Each pasta dish was around 14 euros.
