What a lovely place for our first lunch in Bologna! Tagliatelle Bolognese was spectacular, as was the chef's original take on the cottoletto, which was served as an appetizer. Braised beef cheek; just the right amount of fat and so tender it melted in your mouth. The atmosphere was friendly, the service was just right and the classic jazz background music was the perfect choice. Would return in a minute. read more

Lovely spot offering a quiet dining experience. We had lovely apps and meals. Wine was nice as well. It was a satisfying experience overall.

We had a very nice lunch here. We both had appetizers that were classic with a unique flavor pairing - mine smoked salmon with a mousse cheese and pickled rind. The ragu tagliatelle was good, just as you want it. It wasn't very crowded but maybe that's because it was Wednesday at lunch? Its by a theater so maybe more crowded in the evenings when a shoot is on. read more

There's a lot to this particular restaurant, and it's a whole lot of good. So to start, every month they decide to choose a different region to feature, so their menu might be completely different if you were to go several weeks apart. This time around, we got to taste some delectable dishes from the Marche region, and wow was it enjoyable. We were able to have a chat with Marco, the head chef and menu engineer, who himself is a delightful guy. He walked us through his personal favorites on the menu, and who would we be not to listen to him. We ended up having some very nice squid antipasti followed by an agniolli al brodetto paired with a very nice minerally frizzante white wine. The attention to detail and the depth of flavor in every piece of the meal - even a basil pesto couscous amuse bouche - was on point. Particularly because of the "revolving door" nature of the menu, we'd certainly come back again and again here if/when we spend more time in Bologna read more

Fantastic value for beautiful food. Welcoming homey atmosphere. FYI, the tasting menu is deceptively large as most of the plates served are full sized, richly flavored dishes...so if you are not that hungry, go a la carte! Lovely meal. read more

This place is located in what seems to be a very nice part of Bologna so it was a nice walk over with plenty of palatial homes with the very large oversized wooden double doors. There was only outdoor seating available but the outdoor area was nice. Lots of friendly neighbors were out walking their dogs. The server was very friendly, while the manager (maybe owner?) chose to smoke next to our table......twice.....Nonetheless, the food was amazing and matched the other great reviews on Yelp. The shrimp appetizer, pistachio crusted sea bass, and tortellini were all fantastic, as was the fairly decent and low priced wines by the glass. read more

So perfetto!! I am spending a month in Bologna and after ten days of believing every random restaurant would be delicious, I started to look for reviews. In turn, I feel it's only fair to share my knowledge and experience. Amazing. The food was delicious and innovative, the service so personable, and the ambiance very charming. Go! Your palate will be so happy! read more

Menu is innovative, yet maintains its Italian roots. Food is delicious. Restaurant looks to each detail. Even the bread is good. A small and friendly wait staff is highly responsive. read more

Some of the best pasta I've had in Italy! We had the prix fixe lunch and found the choices to be subtle, delicate, balanced, different. Sette Tavoli takes your Nonna's recipes and updates them without losing their essential Italian-ness. If the pasta with sausage and orange cream sauce is on the menu get it. The waiter was welcoming and patiently walked us through the menu (we don't speak much Italian). We'll go back again before our stay is done. read more
