We decided to go for a late dinner as we had enjoyed what we had seen at the tail end of the lunch service. What a great choice! We were seated at a table for two across from the pass through from the kitchen. Normally I would not be overly pleased with this seat location, but the sheer volume of activity made it the place to be. We watched as a large number of dishes at a time were assembled and whisked off to their awaiting guests. We ordered a bottle of red wine from our server, an older Gentleman that clearly was one of the people in charge of the floor. We determined a couple of appetizers and ordered from him our selections. He immediately made us aware that our selections were not what we should order, given our wine selection and the specialties of the house. He couldn't have been more right as our appy's of spinach and pumpkin stuffed ravioli's in a butter sauce and tortellini in brodo (chicken broth) was outstanding. The lovely K found the brodo on the salty side, but I found it to be terrific. We make our own chicken stock at home, painstakingly using old fashioned methods, no salt added and found that this broth had a depth of flavour that is difficult to replicate. The ravioli's were superb, the pasta beautiful and delicate and the filling amazing. Our secondi, we had breaded veal for myself and grilled rib eye for K. We got to chatting with a German couple and her Father as our second course arrived and did not finish either. That said both were well prepared and although the only things on the plate (we passed on the accompaniments off the cart as we were already getting full) they were again perfectly prepared. The atmosphere is what one would expect from a place that caters to families, especially on a the Sunday of a long weekend. The following day was a national holiday (Liberation Day) so spirits were high, and the volume loud. People wander from table to table visiting. We watched a Grandpa, Grandma and Mother walk around with a baby each taking turns while the others visited. It was a heartwarming and stomach satisfying experience in the middle of Italy that we will not soon forget. Dining in places like this is what Italy and family dining is all about. To illustrate this further the German couple and her Father we met by chance as they were at the table beside us we will be dining with in Rome later on this week, how does it get better than that.

We had a wonderful lunch there and were treated to some truly amazing Italian dishes. When they found out we were from Australia, they presented us with a book of all the top restaurants in Italy (they were in it, of course!). We highly recommend Caffe Arti as a great place for wonderful food and hospitality.

High quality food... not really the typical local Italian restaurant in Reggio. Italian with a new…read moretwist... very good twist :) It is a pricey place where you do not want to go eat every day but for special evenings/lunches or just a fancy occasion is definitely the place to be. The entrance is not on the main Via Emilia street but you have to pass under the the arcade. You get to this pretty and well kept garden and there at the end you have the entrance to the restaurant which is like a private home door. Inside the ambiance is modern very raffinate and essential with a round balcony with all the tables on the first floor and ground floor with ample space for walking and sitting. As I said the food is not really the typical one fro Reggio even if you can find the typical names on the menu like Tortelli, Cappeletti and so on... the way the food is cooked and presented is definitely modern and new with very smart and great / tasty ideas. The service is top of the scale and everyone is very very gentle and polite... maybe a bit snobbish.. but hey... it creates the atmosphere :) Pricey.... yes.. but totally worth it. If you are a local you will for sure meet someone you know !! Reggio after all is a small city. In Summer there are few tables set in the garden. Reservation is a MUST!!

A pleasant surprise to receive a raw cappelletto as "gran mother revenge" and the super hot pumpkin with balsamic vinegar and parmigiano reggiano cream. The best starters ever part of the whole get ready for what to come. My tagliatelle pasta, freshly made in the kitchen really followed my grand mother's receipt both for the pasta and especially for the ragù sauce. Served in a stellar perfectly prepared plate. Super good. The branzino with onions and pine seeds were just an impressive crunchy and soft ensemble enriched with a creamy lemon custard. All the flavor you would think would clash were instead singing together in a perfect food orgasm. Really something to try. I had also "lingua salmistrata" which is a very old local tradition. It is cow tongue prepared to perfection and as the rest of the dishes, enriched with the exotic flavors. Great job Marta. Desserts are the final touch to a great dining experience. Let yourself guide from the host advices and indulge with questions. Everyone is eager to explain and detail the reason of each and every ingredient. Top notch service. The sommelier goes with experience and great manners through the wine list which is really spectacular and perfectly matched to Marta's cooking. Ambience is very lean, relaxed and spacious letting you concentrate on the food experience and have a great relaxed conversation with your dining companion/s. Nothing better than not being rushed and be able to appreciate every detail. Do ask, and you receive a great smiling pleasant narrative answers which connect the food tastes to the local rich traditions. It is by far my most favorite place in a city where food is religion and local ingredients are kings. Well done Marta.... who stays in the kitchen but comes out to greet and have a chat before you leave for the evening. The menu is not huge but there are plenty of other gems which I will want to try the next times. Not cheap but definitely way below normal price standards for the incredible quality and cooking accuracy and innovative ideas. Definitely need to call in advance to book your table, even if you are in a party of 2. SUPER WELL DONE MARTA.
