"The genial signora Anna Maria looks and acts like the archetypal Italian mamma and has been serving the finest tortellini in brodo in Bologna for 26 years now in her marvelous trattoria."

Matt Long

"A melt-in-your-mouth tiramisu."

Ben Holbrook

"From mouth-watering lasagne and pasta courses to delicious meat dishes, this trattoria features a vast range of scrumptious dishes and entrees."

Dalene Heck

"Her food is simple and exquisite. After an appetizer of mortadella and parmesan, we were brought samples of three pasta dishes: lasagna, her signature tagliatelli with bolognese sauce, and a bowl of tortellini in broth. All hand made, all authentic and traditional, we savored every bite, and were inspired."

Matt Long

"Savory lasagna are just some of the highlights at this traditional but delicious restaurant."

Regan Stephens

"While surrounded by framed photos and autographs of celebrities that cover the walls, tuck into Bolognese classics like translucent strands of tagliatelle al ragù."

Niamh Shields

"Tortellini in brodo is the star dish here, tiny stuffed homemade pasta with mortadella, parmesan, prosciutto, nutmeg (the ingredients vary, but these are generally core), served in a clear meat broth."

Laura Bessega

"The pasta served by Anna Maria is definitely untypical for local restaurants: the tagliatelle are very thin and narrow. She explains that this choice, deliberated and logical, was born thanks to her palate. You shouldn't taste nor too much pasta nor too much ragù."

Amanda Slavinsky

"At €14 the lasagna was not cheap, but the bechamel and ragu layered between sheets of pasta were deliciously creamy and I ate away happily, made even happier by a quarter liter of San Giovese."
