Trattoria da Amerigo

12 Trattorias to Try in Italy, From North to South

"After touring Europe’s top restaurants, Alberto Bettini returned to his family trattoria in the hills outside Bologna and applied fine-dining standards to sourcing, service, the kitchen, and communication while keeping the core—fresh housemade pasta, ragù, top meats, seasonal specialties, and a deep connection to local producers—intact. The place was awarded a Michelin star in 1998 and has retained it ever since, remaining notable as an authentic trattoria that balances rustic conviviality with meticulous craftsmanship." - Marco Bolasco
