The food was delicious. All four of us loved our food. The tagliatelle with ragu was amazing. As was the lasagne. The restaurant is beautiful inside with big windows and skylights providing lots of natural light. We were relieved that the restaurant was pleasantly air conditioned. It was extremely hot outside and the cool air was a welcome relief. The service was friendly. We were impressed with the quality and freshness of the entrees especially at such reasonable prices. We would absolutely eat here again.

We had a large group of 10 and we were all taken care of! The food was delicious and the service was great. This dinner was a thank you for the team that worked during the book fair. We will go back again next year!

A delightful restaurant near the center of town. Excellent food. The steak tartare is memorable. Traditional, but exceptional quality to the beef. The tortellini A Balus is a star - have not had better. The server suggested a local wine, a savignon blanc, also memorable. Local, casual, but delicious.

I actually book a table just for myself, which was kind of awkward for me, but the waiter was very welcoming and polite so I loved that. The atmosphere was perfect and the food... ❤️ Tortellini a balus is a must for sure.

A nice restaurant in the center of Bologna, with traditional regional dishes. The service has been very attentive and are able to provide a good hint of the menu. Primi piatti are higher level than secondi piatti. We highly recommend to order Tortellini A’ Balus.

The food was fine but very average. Nothing to go out of your way for. Waiting 30 minutes for the check after multiple assurances it was coming was somewhat aggravating.
