Absolutely beautiful from start to finish, welcomed by lovely staff who couldn’t do enough for you. Food was absolutely amazing and the prices were very good based on the quality of the food. Booked this when I was back in England for our 1st wedding anniversary and I wasn’t disappointed with anything. This is in a remote area and they were more than happy to book us a taxi to get back to our hotel. The highlight of our short trip. Thank you to all the great staff

A restaurant with the most romantic setting. The waiters were serviceminded and friendly. We had appetizer, main course and dessert, and all the dishes was well prepared and very tastefull. Absolutely recommend this beautiful restaurant right outside of Bologna city center.
