6/10So here is my take; Pros: the barman who was responsible of payments, was very kind. Cons: 1)cotoletta bolognese was pampered a lot, the waiter even said that “ours is better than the ones you had before”, I heard that he was being bossy to my friend before I arrived there. Even if we are at similar age, that shouldn’t be a reason to interact with your client in a way as if you know these people for years, just plain fake friendliness. Anyways, he was going on explaining how the cotoletta was made, which I didn’t even ask and actually replied “yes I know what it is” but he proceeded to give us the gist. Continuing, the cotoletta was exactly half of what it should have been, as in size. Also, he mentioned that there was parmigiano added into the cream, neither me nor my friend tasted it. The only good thing about the dish was the prosciutto crudo on the cotoletta, funnily enough was the only thing that wasn’t prepared in house. 2) lasagne bolognese, was decent, nothing special. 3) tagliatelle al ragù, was decent aswell. So the verdict is: if a place provides a quality experience, the prices must be high. But here the price, although not high, still doesn’t justify. I had many better dishes at different places at a similar rate.

6/10Good food, but nothing spectacular. We have let the waiter know about the Fork reservation and we have been asked to sit on a different table near the entrace instead of the one we have initially invitated to sit.

8/10Very home-like food, good. Polpette are very good, cotoletta bolognese is not at its best, but it's good. The pasta dishes are not top, but decent. Good friggione, not too salty, and good potatoes. We had a discount, therefore we ended there. Would I come back? I am not sure...

2.5/10The food was not great, we were told to sit outside though there were seats inside (and we had asked to sit inside), even the discount doesn’t make up for the quality of the dishes, sadly

7/10The best part of the restaurant was the service, the waiter Francesco was very nice and always attentive. The food came quick, it was good, especially the ragu and the tiramisu. They say they don't have tap water as a way to make us pay for the water, that is filled from the tap and put into a bottle. In general, it was good but could definitely be better.

6/10Had lunch - tortellini in brodo, assaggio di mortadella and vitello tonnato, everything was OK, nothing special but OK. Probably wouldn’t be my choice if not 50% discount offered by The Fork.

5.5/10Not sure what to make of this one. When we arrived we were about to be shown a table and when I said we'd booked, the waiter asked if it was through the fork and when I said yes we were seated at a different table and I couldn't swear to it but I think we were given a different coloured menu. I asked if we could sit where he was first going to place us but he said no. Nothing foodwise was overpriced altho we were charged 6 euros each for 1 bottle of sparkling water which had been decanted and was semi flat. The food was ok but I couldn't honestly say it was better than that. Shame really. The wine was lovely though.

10/10This is the best place I ate in without a doubt. Don’t be fooled if the next restaurant has more people. This small place has the perfect tasty food and a very friendly service. When I come back to Bologna I’ll definitely eat here again. Me and my friends were very impressed.

10/10The food was very tasty, we had tagliatelle al ragu and tortellini with parmigiano cream. Tiramisu was the best I ate so far. Staff friendly and dedicated. Francesco is the best waiter. We had a great time here, Definitely recommended.

6.5/10The location is very good, the food was good but the owner said we could not have the 50%off from the food we had. Very strange as long as we showed him the reservation from The Fork app.
