Had an enjoyable meal. The vegetable souffle was very good as was the sea bass with pistachios. Prices were reasonable. Staff were very welcoming.

The menu, wine list & the food we ordered were all excellent. The air conditioning didn’t seem to be functioning properly which made the otherwise pleasant interior uncomfortable.

Amazing little gem hidden away on the narrow streets of Bologna. Everything was perfect from the food to the ambience. The wait staff was extremely attentive and very professional. Highly recommend.

The food was good, but the service was not. We sat for a while before anyone came to our table. It took quite a while to get the wine we ordered, the food came quickly, but the service was dismissive.

The table for three people is too small, making it uncomfortable. Additionally, one person has to stand up to allow another customer to pass through because the tables are set too close together, leaving no room for passage.

Lovely food, service was friendly but at times slow because they were so busy. Definitely worth a visit for the traditional food.

HAD TO GO BACK! My wife and I usually do not visit the same restaurant twice in one trip. Franco Rossi restaurant was an exception. Nice Local place family owned since 1975. Local vibe is great. We had to try different meals. It was all so good. Asparagus risotto , Beef cheeks, traditional tagliatelle Bolognese. The first night. Red Tuna carpaccio, Grilled lamb ribs, Rigatoni Carbonara. A must try. Recommend a reservation. Locals start coming. On the Fork site works well. Buon Appétit 🇮🇹

A restaurant with potential… but they sadly doesn’t focus enough on the wine.. 3 of the 4 courses where delicious (soufflé, sea bass and panna cotta.) The 4th course was braised cheeks of veal. The meat was tender, but the sauce where way to salty.. a shame. The staff where very friendly and helpful.. And although it was a busy evening, they where attentive and didn’t leave anyone waiting. Sadly thy lack of focus on wine. Overall a experience just above mediocre..

I had some fond memories of our visit to the restaurant in the summer. Now the tables were too close, the food ok, one of the waitresses not very friendly. We were a little disappointed.
