Osteria de Borg

A cozy restaurant with great atmosphere inside. Really gem of Rimini. Located in a nice small street, away from a more noisy area. All dishes were fantastic! Meat tartar had a consistency of a pate, very nice in the mouth, without any smell of meat itself. It might seem very home cooked from the fotos, but the taste was insane! Really suggest to pass by if you’r in the area.

Absolutely delicious and rustic home-style dining. From the thick rolled ravioli, to the simple bread side, and the hearty stuffed zucchini, Osteria de Borg delivered on a filling and delicious classic experience. It was really lovely and homey.

A cozy spot nestled in the heart of the old town, with a charming atmosphere that invites you to linger. While the waitstaff didn’t seem particularly enthusiastic during my visit, the service was efficient and the food arrived impressively quickly. I only ordered a selection of appetizers, but they were flavorful and satisfying enough to leave me feeling full. I’d be happy to return to try more of the menu—there’s definitely potential here for a great meal.

Authentic Romagnolo Excellence at Osteria de Borg. Nestled in the charming Borgo San Giuliano neighbourhood of Rimini, Osteria de Borg is a true gem that honours the deep culinary traditions of Emilia-Romagna. During my visit, I sampled four standout main dishes, each one a masterclass in flavour, technique, and regional authenticity. The **Tagliatelle al Sugo Piselli** was deceptively simple—perfectly al dente pasta paired with a delicate tomato and pea sauce that felt both comforting and refined. The **Gnocchi di Patate Gialle di Gemmano** with “Mora Romagnola” sausage, mascarpone cream, and peppers was rich and satisfying. The sweetness of the peppers perfeclty balances the richness of the cream and sausage. The **Cappelletti in Brodo di Gallina** was traditional and soulful, with a clear, flavourful broth and perfectly folded pasta. Finally, the **Cappelletti dell’Osteria alla Carote** added a gentle sweetness that made it surprisingly unique while staying rooted in classic technique. Sweet and savoury in harmonious dialogue. Service was warm and attentive (but not intrusive), and the atmosphere struck just the right note between rustic and welcoming. Unpretentious and casual, yet of the highest quality, Osteria de Borg simply does everything right. A must-visit for anyone seeking real Romagnolo cuisine.

Lovely italian restaurant with a pretty colourful courtyard. We both got gnocchi which was soft and delicious. We weren't given bread on the table which was upsetting as all other tables were given this. I would recommend it for good Italian food and the nearby streets were very pretty.

Cozy environment and the food is relatively high class. Not expensive but not cheap either. Good staff but there are almost too many of them.

Very nice Food and Location! Also wonderful wine-list. We can highly recommend this Osteria, also because of fair price!

Really great, I can only recommend a visit! Very nice ambience, a lot of atmosphere is created with very little, just as you would imagine an Italian osteria to be! Very well attended, tables are close together. Reservations recommended. It was my second visit, last year and this year. The service was very friendly and attentive. You get a glimpse into the kitchen and see the chicken broth simmering, the bread is in the oven. Price-performance is absolutely fair. All we had was super fresh and delicious!

Just go! It's located across the historic bridge in Rimini surrounded by brightly colored buildings where fisherman used to live centuries ago. Like the best picnic place in the Hamptons, but with most dishes under $20. This is where you want to go for amazing Michelle quality food without the formality of foam and overly designed atmosphere. Great for a casual lunch or a, honey I'm too tired to go out tonight, can't we just go someplace casual with really good food kinda place.

Earmarked this place for a stop on our day trip from Bologna to San Marino, and it turned out to be an excellent decision. Kid friendly while also pleasing the adults. Sitting in the outdoor courtyard it was quickly apparent that this place was not pretentious and was frequented by all. Young, old, friends, families, and even local plumbers and electricians doing work in the area. The food is as unpretentious as the restaurant itself. Simple, but with deep flavors and very delicious. The gnocchi in green sauce was great, the ravioli in carrot sauce sublime, green beans were fresh and cooked to perfection, and the steaks and meat platter were just perfect. The service was friendly and typically European.

Three stars: here is why. We ate at the Osteria twice. The first time, five stars hands down. The place was full, we sat down and were greeted by a very nice waitress. We ordered the house white wine, sparking water, a pizza (margarita) and pasta (broccoli and salsicca). Both can quickly and were fabulous. Two nights later we decided we wanted that same amazing Italian experience again, so we went back. This time we explored the menu a bit deeper ordering a few things from all over the menu - soup, appetizers etc. when our main dishes arrived, the steak and the mushroom tagliatelle, we were horrified. The steak was not even cooked. It was chewy. Very very chewy. The pasta was soaked through with sauce and after a few bites unappetizing. We were bummed since we had had such a nice time before. Still! I recommend this place! No stars because there needs to be a consistency with a restaurant. One day 5 stars next time 1 just doesn't cut it. I know their pizza has to be fabulous every time, so from now on when I am in Rimini I will go there for the pizza. Hope you have the first experience!!

Molto bene! Very nice little place, lovely hustle and bustle atmosphere with friendly staff who are all eager to serve you the delicious food. Absolutely recommend it! The pizza's looked amazing, so will have to be back to try it!

A very cosy Italian restaurant with a great local atmosphere. Me and my company took 1 pasta dish (primi) each and then shared a good grilled Tagliata beef. The seating is located just in the backstreet and the feeling of a hidden piazza is evident. I recomend the Strozzapreti pasta and the Tagliata beef.

I really enjoyed the pizza here. It was thin, crispy, flavorful and you can watch the pizza chef making it by the entrance. The service was not amazing, but they were super busy. I also loved their flatbread... awesome!!
