Very friendly staff. Locals were dining (always a good sign). Fantastic food (my favorite was the…read morebolognese tagliatelle). House red wine and Arcana Blanche beer were also good. We hope to return!

On our last night in Bologna, we were lucky enough to get a table and enjoyed one of our best…read moremeals. The service was friendly, attentive, prompt, and helpful. We split the platter of meats, lasagna, tortellini, tagliatelle and ragu, and grilled veggies. The lasagna was soft, pillowy, and decadent without being heavy, the tagliatelle was al dente and flavorful, and the tortellini stuffed with creamy ricotta. For dessert we split a generous portion of tiramisu, which was creamy and rich. We had a couple bottles of Chianti. The ambiance is relaxing with a neighborhood vibes. This is a wonderful osteria, everything was chef's kiss.

Intro: After exploring Bologna to the fullest, we made our way to Osteria Broccaindosso for dinner…read more Located outside of the heart of Bologna, despite being away from the center of the action, the restaurant was almost full. They didn't have any tables outside so we were seated inside. Service (3.5/5): No WiFi unfortunately which isn't great for an international traveler like me. Standard European service. Not terribly friendly and not terribly efficient but I would say they were a bit more attentive than the norm. They did hook us up with some complimentary limoncello shots which was a really nice touch. Ambiance (3.5/5): A little quieter since it's off the beaten path which I like. A pleasant, homey restaurant. Drinks (4.5/5): We shared a bottle of wine. And the aforementioned limoncello shots. Food (4/5): We went with their pasta for two deal where each person gets three different types of pasta that you choose from six or so options. I love getting a variety of dishes so this was a nice way to do it. Not huge portions given the price but still delicious. The dishes were served to us quickly and we got to try some pastas we had never heard of. Overall: When in Bologna, Osteria Broccaindosso makes for a fine choice. It's a 15-minute walk or so from the center of town.

Would only recommend for coffee and croissants. We ordered pasta thinking it was cooked in the…read morekitchen but NO. Pastas are microwave dinners in a plastic bowl that are over cooked and burned. Unless you want a stomach ache don't eat the pasta. Don't make the same mistake we made and just wait till the other restaurants open at 11:30.

My wife had the lasagne for her entree, I had seafood. My wife said her lasagne was different from the last place she had it a couple days earlier in Bologna, but no less spectacular. I agreed, and my seafood was nothing less. The ambiance on a quiet side street (maybe in the Jewish quarter) was a great way to enjoy a Bolognese night.

Loved this little gem--food was great, service was nice and watching pasta being made was the bonus.read more

If I could give a minus 10 stars, I WILL! They are rude and racist! We stopped at 12:30pm on…read moreMother's Day, and would like to have a quick lunch. As they are just opened and there was no customer at all. An old lady greeted us and seemed very nice but speaks no English, but was understanding with our request. As she was planning to seat us, a younger woman walked in and looked us, then said something to the old lady, then told us there was no table for us. That's all and she walked away! Clearly she was not happy to seen couple of Asian wants to have lunch in her place! Well, that's her losses. We walked out and eat a restaurant right around the corner with amazing foods and services. At the end, we are so glad that we didn't eat there. Judging by the attitude, I won't be expecting their foods would good at all. So, if you are visiting Bologna, avoiding this place by all means!
