4 and a half stars!…read more We came in for lunch as restaurant opened at 12.30. Place was full within 30 minutes. Small restaurant with excellent service. Tried the broad bean puree and Roman style artichoke side dish as starters. Both were delicious. For mains we had the lasagne Bolognese and tagliatelle Gessetto. Both were excellent. Hubby and I switched mid meal so we each had half of each pasta dish, neither of us could pick a favorite. The lasagne is cut into squares and baked so you have the best crunchy bits all round...what a great idea! I would be here weekly if I lived in the area! Come early or make a reservation to avoid waiting in line

Two weeks after eating at Gessetto (the restaurant, piazza San Martino 4/a)), I remember a quiet…read moreand comfortable place. I felt a little bit like home, so it was a very nice atmosphere :-) Food wise, we shared polenta with my friend. It was pretty good, with bacon on top, but way too much food! I was full after that. Then I had some escalope with white wine (that I didn't taste) with some potatoes and salad. It was good but not unforgettable. The waiter was lovely and it wasn't a touristy place so I definitely recommend if you want to have good food in a calm place.

Via Pescherie Vecchie is one of the most interesting little streets of Bologna. At the entrance…read morethere are a couple of cured meat & cheese shops (which double as bistrots) with mouth-watering displays of dozens of types of prosciutto and parmigiano reggiano. Following are the little fruit & vegetable shops, their fresh products exposing your eyes to a festival of colors. The first bistro on the street, Caffe del Mercato, is my favorite breakfast & aperitivo spot. After 6pm they offer a large open buffet with many different types of bruschettas, frittatas, pasta, meatballs (polpette) etc. Buffet + drink costs only 8 euros, and everything is delicious. Plus you cannot find this atmosphere anywhere else in the world. Not to forget that the service is always excellent--the waiters are super friendly, welcoming, and handsome too!
