The food was outstanding. Period. It was so tasty, and based on local and traditional cuisine. Wine pairings excellent, too. Rarely do I leave a restaurant and think every course was delicious, but we did tonight. Very efficient and friendly service, too. I highly recommend I Carracci.

Dear Guest, Thank you for according your preference to “I Carracci” Restaurant and for sharing your so memorable experience. Knowing that you found each course “delicious” and appreciated the deep connection to our local and traditional cuisine truly means a lot to us. I am also glad that the wine pairings were excellent as well. Our sommelier dedicates great attention to each selection, ensuring a perfect harmony between food and wine. What warms my heart most, however, is your rare and generous compliment: that you left our restaurant feeling every course was delicious. There is no greater reward for me, for the Executive Chef and the team, than knowing we’ve created a moment of genuine delight for our guests. Thank you also for your kind words about our efficient and friendly service. I sincerely hope we will have the pleasure of welcoming you back for another unforgettable evening.

The food was amazing it was a mix of incredibly well done traditional Italian food and experimental dishes that made for an incredible experience. The Sorrento citrus, salt and herb sorbet with cucumber was a taste experience I cannot describe. The steak tartare with capers and pizzola sauce was the best I’ve ever had. It is a full service restaurant that gives a truly amazing old style pure fine dining experience. ( you don’t even pour your own wine or water) The staff were attentive and experts at their craft and the meal was timed perfectly with them getting the time between courses absolutely perfect every time.

Excellent service and superb classic dishes with a twist in an elegant setting. This restaurant in the Majestic Hotel was a last-minute splurge - we all decided on the tasting menu. The dishes were all inspired by classic Italian cuisine with a modern twist, and every single dish was balanced, tasty, and well-portioned. We were particularly impressed with the marinated prawns on a thin slice of watermelon, but every dish was delicious! If we have the opportunity to visit Bologna again, we won't hesitate to dine here once more.

I Carracci is everything you would want in a fine dining experience. From the fresco painted ceilings, the superb service, and skilled technicians in the kitchen taking the food to a whole new level. We had the six course chef's blind tasting combined with one of the wine pairings so our table was handled entirely by the restaurant's Sommelier who did a fantastic job of pairing our wine to the explosions of flavor coming from the chef.

Dear Guest, thank you for choosing “I Carracci” Restaurant and for your review. We’re pleased you appreciated the atmosphere of our dining room and the attention of our staff, both scored 10/10. Regarding the 6/10 for the cuisine, the team recalls no negative feedbacks during the meal and only noticed the low score on our inner survey after payment procedures. When asked, you simply mentioned that you found not particularly special the dishes—feedback that, if shared earlier, would have allowed us to act immediately, particularly for the beef cooking level and temperature. However, all plates were finished, so a barely sufficient rating was quite unexpected. Next time we invite you to report immediately your possible concerns, we will be glad to intervene promptly. I remain at your disposal and hope to welcome you again for a more satisfying experience. T. Biondi G.M

With reference to the setting, our aim is to offer an elegant and refined experience in line with the historic atmosphere of our dining room, yet we always strive to maintain a warm and welcoming approach. As for your remark about the absence of “classic Italian dishes,” I must admit I am not entirely sure what you were specifically referring to.

Went here for my birthday, had to book maybe two weeks in advance. Amazing service, great food. I was so full with the traditional tasting menu! There was one guest though with a strange behavior for a public place, I wish the personell told him something about it. But rather than that, our evening was amazing. The hotel interior is also fantastic.
