An excellent restaurant in the heart of Bolognina, Trattoria Via Serra will not disappoint with its reinterpretations of traditional dishes. The quality raw material, the level of cuisine and the professionalism of the staff will surely make you come back. To be able to have a table, however, you need to book in advance, at least a week, so don't risk it!
Truly the best meal in Bologna! Friendly atmosphere, excellent quality food ... the owner loves his work and feels very kind .... he explains every dish ...
Two minutes from the station ... very close to the center
Truly the best!
Excellent Emilian cuisine a few steps from the station of Bologna, to try!
Place difficult to reach by car, varied menu, staff too present in illustrating the menu, normal dishes to taste, poor house wine, good desserts. Excessive price for what you ate
simply spectacular! Highly recommended!
All good and very nice and welcoming managers.
When the passion and frankness of the raw materials meet.
Bravi!
Fixed stage. Excellent both the food and the welcome.
Excellent hospitality prices in the standard interesting and good menu
Eating at the "boys" is always a guarantee. Care of raw materials, tradition and passion for food
A splendid gem very well hidden. In a narrow street near the station very discreet from the outside there is a corner of pure Bolognese gastronomic pleasure. Cozy interior almost seems to be home prepared, friendly, efficient and very nice staff. Food ... Simply excellent. Nothing else needs to be added. Remember to book well in advance and when you visit it forget the diet and let yourself be embraced by the chef's treats.
Delicious dishes topped with friendly kindness and a warm welcome. Trained staff. Straconsigliato.
Highly recommended ... for the kitchen, service environment. Very high quality
Dinner last night: tosone, ricotta ravioli, boned rabbit, revisited cheesecake! Tt excellent, quiet place, nice owner (provides explanations on the menu, history and suppliers)
Recommended (we booked 1 month before xche is always full)
Unbelievable! Exactly what we were looking for. Authentic, simple and where the locals eat.
I start from the owner, an exquisite person .. the menu of this place (I invite you to book at least 2/3 weeks before because it is walled) is not fixed, but always enriched with new specialties and I add with FRESCHISSI products, mostly from the Molise region. .
All well-kept. I really recommend because it is a guarantee and to be placed among the first places for the kitchen in Bologna!
Great restaurant !!!
Absolutely delicious and perfect welcome !!!
I forgot my wallet the day before I left for Paris and Tommaso sent it back to me in France
such honesty is not forgotten !!!
This meeting will remain for me a wonderful memory!
For starter we had a delicious chicken liver pate with homemade brioche. It came with a delightful gel and some red currants giving a sharpness but hubby had a fresh parmesan wrapped in bacon and fried which was utterly sublime - I can not express how delicious it was. I wish we could return but know they are so popular that we were lucky to attain one visit. Please if you get the opportunity do try this fantastic eatery.
Very good excellent, the owner and the staff are very kind and professional, the food is excellent and the place is nice. What else can I say? go there
It's been a while since I wanted to try the Trattoria in Via Serra, tonight I did it.
Flavio and all the staff make you feel at ease. All very good. The cheek, an off-menu this evening, was truly exceptional. A stew that I believe will become memorable.
Icing on the cake, no direct or indirect pressing to free the table. Single turn. Who is there can enjoy the evening in peace and harmony. And if you are lucky enough to have good company, you're done.
Well done. I will continue to try to book.
I wanted to try this place driven by the excellent reviews read on the internet; I can say that I fully share the opinions on the staff, friendly and well-prepared in the description of the dishes.
As for the menu I had seen from the photos that it was not very varied and that few dishes were to my taste but I was hoping to find great classics, like tortellini or gramigna, of excellent quality and that the off-menu dishes could widen my choice enticing me with seasonal specialties. I found instead of the first discrete but not exalted and in all the off-menu there were ingredients, like mushrooms, which I didn't like;
I was so frustrated by the fact that at every description of the dishes came the mushrooms that I finally gave up resigned to ordering the second, concluding the meal.
Congratulations however for the melted tosone, a typical dish never tasted before, and the excellent salad that accompanied it.
I vote with 4 stars making the average between the 5 that I would give to the staff and the 3 that I would give to the menu.
Personally I don't think I'll come back but I highly recommend it to all mushroom lovers.
Everything was very nice but you can't look at the interpretation in flypegasus and get up with 50 per person
Probably today the best trattoria in Bologna.
Tortelloni are highly recommended.
Staff at hand, courteous and good choice even for the off menu.
Cozy place and very prepared staff. Typical Bolognese menu with in addition dishes of the day which are all explained in detail by the waiters once accompanied to the table. Average prices, the only difficulty is booking on the phone because they never answer. It is worthwhile to go early and wait a few minutes to sit down.
Trattoria with delicious dishes served by friendly and well-trained staff
I love this authentic restaurant. Third time here and the staff are still lovely and the food is still spectacular.
A must visit! The food is excellent, both in quality and in type: it really deserves praise also for the imagination with which the menu is prepared, for the freshness and quality of the ingredients, for the spectacular packaging of the dishes (presentation but above all flavors ... divine !), for the kindness and preparation of the staff, for the engaging and overwhelming friendliness of the owner.
Typical local products enhanced and sublimated by a genuine, tasty but very refined and accurate cuisine. They range from tosone (fresh Parmigiano Reggiano, unsalted and cut into strips) which is prepared wrapped with pancetta and cooked in a sublime way, to tortelli with a filling and a side dish that do not seem of this land but of Paradise!
The dishes of the day, "spoken" or written on the blackboard in the dining room, are surprising and always different and of quality.
If you were to find a flaw, you could only say that the dishes are so good that it is difficult to choose !!! Everything would be eaten, without interruption!
Not too many tables (a sign of great prudence and a certain constant quality, since the service is always adequate, in every sense, as there is never excessive confusion. And this is beneficial to both those serving at the table and in the kitchen) but almost always everyone busy. Another sign of great quality.
Reservation recommended, always.
Truly from ten and praise!
Excellent cuisine. It never disappoints expectations. Traditional cuisine but always presented with innovation and creativity. Every dish is a delight for the palate. Cozy and warm the environment, friendly service.
QUALITY, imagination, care, tradition, presentation. Excellent dishes.
Words don't give the idea only live tasting can do it.
Best wishes and good dinner.
All very good and beautiful. A Bolognese excellence and beyond. Quality kindness courtesy. It really feels like home
The most wonderful welcome, lovely service and the food was incredible. Would definitely recommend.
We ate the other one in the evening all very good to say the least and then even the well-spaced tables, the expense was minimal
It is a special place for particular people who are not well-to-do. It is worth trying
Disappointed. Having read the good reviews we went for lunch. At the cashier we waited for the innkeeper to finish chatting with the previous customer and then bothered to do the bill saying that if we were in a hurry there are places where you can eat in 15 minutes ... to then miss the bill and charge us 10 euros more ... if you call this the client's welcome ...
Food cured both in the choice of raw materials and in the preparation of the dishes. Cozy place, trained staff. Fair price.
Unfortunately I could not try the restaurant: nobody called and called and they informed us that everything was already booked.
It would be courteous to answer the phone to alert you completely full, or to set up an answering machine to tell you.
Trattoria of proven Bolognesita even if revisited in the proposals included in the very appetizing menu.
Very nice place Good food and great service I recommend it
A very pleasant Saturday for lunch. I managed after several attempts to book by phone. Delicious and well-kept restaurant, not very large. Staff and owner very kind, friendly, explain the menu at the tables with a care that seems to tell a fairy tale. Sublime food! Eat the mushroom croutons, tortelloni stuffed with ricotta with butter and sage (delicious !!!! Melted in the mouth, spectacular filling) and English soup. Price in line with what is offered. I hope to be back! Highly recommended!
Fabio is very nice we ate very well and we have already booked x next time
Warm and welcoming environment. Like a cradle. culinary experience worth trying. And try. And try again .. Book early {one month at least in advance}
As a good Bolognese I can only recommend this Restaurant as one of the best in Bologna.
Delicious local Bologna - style food. We tried a lot on the menu and everything was fantastic. Also, the staff was super nice and friendly. Loved this experience and highly recommend this place.
The last time I had dinner I was not satisfied with the price / quality ratio which was not up to par and even the dishes were not enough. I hope it was the case of one evening.
For starter we had a delicious chicken liver pate with homemade brioche. It came with a delightful gel and some red currants giving a sharpness but fiance had a fresh parmesan wrapped in bacon and fried which was utterly sublime - I can not express how delicious it was. highly recommend this place
Excellent tavern with refined food. The price is adequate for quality but not excessive. The innkeeper explains the menu in great detail, causing you to fry your mouth before you start eating. The only problem is that you have to be patient by trying to call at various times to find free. But it's worth it.
Excellent and nice management. The restaurant is treated in detail in an area of Bologna that enjoys a magical and young moment. Emilian menu and everything to taste.
Simply do not miss it. Courtesy combined with particular dishes between tradition and innovation. Truly special. Book well in advance
Cozy place, very good and well done food, very kind and nice staff, very recommended
Excellent. Maximum attention to detail in every detail, from the location to the courtesy passing through an amazing cuisine that offers dishes inspired by the typical cuisine of the Bologna area enhanced by a search for high-quality basic ingredients, from homemade production and a pleasant presentation . The passion and competence with which the dishes are told to the customer testifies to a search for perfection which then translates into sensational flavors. Not to be missed!
Tonight we dined at the restaurant fantastic food and excellent hospitality. To go back
Great food at low prices, rather modest looking from the outside, but a real surprise inside. Need to reserve!
Cordiality and sympathy greet you in this trattoria with a taste of the past, where you eat fresh and genuine traditional foods, prepared with care and passion, with grandma's and mother's recipes! Passion that they transmit in excellent food !! Highly recommended !!
Fantastic tavern you eat really well, very kind staff
It is an experience of refined taste, where the modernity of the preparation meets the traditional cuisine of our hills. Seasonal menus and fresh ingredients at zero km.
Wow, what a place! The owner s passion for food really comes through as he not only cares about offering you the best flavors, but also about giving you best experience of traditional Bolognese food. Even more, at a very good price too!
If you re a foodie, don t think twice. Just make sure to book in advance!
Best culinary experience we had in Bologna and one of the best ever. Warm and friendly atmosphere. We can only regret that it was impossible to try everything on the menu. Beware book in advance.
Friendly place, staff that excels in courtesy professionalism; really interesting and original culinary proposals in the wake of local tradition. Remember to always keep a little margin to finish the lunch with the chocolate dessert: unique, delicious, unmissable.
I would have liked to give at least 3 or 4 but I should have given only 1. You eat well, price proportionate to the offer. Not very fast in the service (but I might have caught the evening no). Until here everything is normal and, frankly, it is a place where I would like to come back ... But no !!! Booking in this place, mandatory because they are always full, is really impossible: tried at least 10 times at different times and no one answers the phone, sometimes it even seems that the signal becomes busy manually (and not automatically) .
Too bad, really shame because 3 deserves it and maybe even 4.
I don't think I'll try to book again, now all the bonuses have been played.
Good luck !!
Very intimate and refined place, excellent and very particular food
Trattoria Via Serra, how to feel at home in a trattoria. Hard to book without a good warning, but it's really worth it. The menu is varied and always with well selected seasonal products. The service is special, the dishes are told to the customer with love and passion. Location small and accurate in every detail, the atmosphere is familiar and relaxing. The best restaurant in Bologna. Straconsigliato
Friendliness and excellent presentation of the dishes that helps to decide between the various dishes, and then .... the palate is very satisfied with both food and wine !!
Friendly place. attentive and superlative service. Very good, classic noodles were excellent. Even the grilled sea bass was great. Bravi
Excellent cuisine and friendly and knowledgeable staff!
Nothing special, maybe I'll have bad luck myself, but I've been there two times and I have not eaten anything memorable.
Well-kept and excellent dishes from appetizers to desserts. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Discovered by chance ... The best restaurant in Bologna. Understatement and high quality: a winning combination. Flavio grand master in presenting each dish, making a slice of polenta (calzagatti) or a cheese (tosoni) waste precious. Book three months in advance if you want, at the end of the meal, to enjoy the privilege of the homemade nocino.
Pleasant and welcoming environment, in addition to the (very interesting) menu there are equally interesting dishes of the day, the owner explains you dish by dish in a splendid way ...., a little expensive, but the quality is paid for. I will go back 100%
Welcoming and kind. Excellent restaurant where you eat very well
In the name of tradition with quality ingredients and a very warm welcome. Bravi!
excellent ... wonderful ... without flaws ... excellent quality ... simple but refined dishes well presented tasty.
The perfect reception adds that different but perfect note to an extraordinary place
