Ristorante Badessa

The best thing of this evening is not the tartufo pasta which was the best one I’ve eaten with fresh mushroom, but the owner of the place was so welcoming, nice and made for us the best experience 🙏🏼🫶🏼 Thanks !

Fantastic choice of regional dishes, all cooked to perfection and tasted fantastic. The staff were cheerful, helpful and on the ball. I definitely recommend if visiting the area. And if you're into your Lambrusco then you have around 40 to choose from.

I was really looking forward to trying Badessa, as I had heard great things about the food and atmosphere. However, my experience was disappointing due to the service. The staff were not patient at all and didn’t take the time to explain the menu properly, which made it difficult to choose dishes, especially since some items were unfamiliar. It felt like they were in a hurry and not interested in helping us understand or enjoy the dining experience. The place itself is beautiful, but I expected much better hospitality for a restaurant of this level.

One of the best meals I've ever had! The dishes are beautiful and delicious! The balsamic vinegar is amazing!!! The owner of the place is charming and so are the waiters! highly recommend!!

Just wow. Such an amazing experience of a local Emilia cousin. Slow cook at its best. A must if you are near (also worth driving from far away).

Incredible food, great service, wonderful people. We had a blast at Badessa and I can only give praise to Alberto and his staff. This is a home run when in Emilia-Romagna.

This restaurant is so much more charming, refined and intentional than any of the pictures can show. The restauranteur/winemaker is charming and informative, the food is impeccably sourced and flat-out delicious, the presentation is gorgeous and yet it was also a totally welcoming place for our entire family - including our 9 yo son. The waiter helped us choose the exact right amount of food, and every dish was both delicious and unique. The antipasti of cod 3 ways was particularly interesting, and the pastas all had slightly untraditional presentations that only increased their interest and flavor. If you are in the area, I highly highly recommend you find a way to make it to this lovely restaurant.

We loved the food, the service, and the atmosphere. We recommend coming to eat here
