Sfoglia Rina

Here’s a polished, professional review draft based on your notes: Sfoglia Rina is often talked about as a must-visit in Bologna, but in my view it’s a bit overrated. The restaurant doesn’t take reservations, which means there’s usually a line to get a table. To be fair, the line moves fairly quickly, but combined with the fact that the restaurant closes earlier than many others in the city, there’s an added sense of urgency that takes away from what should be a more relaxed dining experience. On the positive side, the pasta is freshly made, as it is in most restaurants in Bologna and that authenticity is always appreciated. The dining room has a mix of independent tables and one large communal table right in the centre, which may or may not suit everyone’s preference. Service is fine, though nothing particularly memorable. Overall, for what it offers, Sfoglia Rina feels more hyped than it deserves. While it’s not a bad option if you happen to be nearby, I wouldn’t place it at the top of a Bologna dining list.

Food was pretty good. The pasta of course was fresh. The tortellini in brodo was very good. I can't say much for the salad they serve with pasta, which they could've just left off the plate. But this is a pasta place after all. We stood in line outside for about 15 minutes, not long. The service was quick and friendly. And yes... they allow dogs which is always a plus for my fur baby. Enjoy!

The restaurant is amazing and the staff are super friendly. Every dish we tried was delicious. We sat at a large shared table—great experience! You can also sit separately. The place is cozy and beautifully decorated. Highly recommended!

There was a waiting line outside but it was fast to move. I think we waited for less than 10 minutes to be seated. There is a huge table inside, if you dont mind sharing with others, you can sit there. Pretty interesting concept as we had to see the menu and write down our own order and then pass to the waiters. Food was delicious and atmosphere is really nice. Would definitely recommend.

Sfoglia Rina was hands down one of the best dining experiences I had in Bologna. The fresh, handmade pasta is truly the star of the show — you can tell it's made with care and tradition. The portion sizes were just right, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a modern yet cozy feel. Despite being popular and quite busy, the service was friendly, attentive, and efficient. You can also take fresh pasta home from their shop, which is a perfect souvenir or dinner for later. If you're in Bologna, this place is a must — authentic, delicious, and memorable.

If you're looking for a quiet dining ambience; Then this isn't the place for you. Mainly pasta dishes and sandwiches. All priced around 13 Euros. Wine was 5 Euros a glass. Tables are close together. We arrived at 6 pm and were seated within 10-minutes. Pasta is served with a small cup of salad and a carafe of water. Noisy and hurried atmosphere. Our server was Olivia. Very nice person. The guy that seated us......Not so much. Total bill was 31 Euros.

Good place for pasta, some dishes I liked some dishes I didn't, The lasagna stood out it was very good dish and their tortellini stuffed with cheese and sage was amazing. I didn't care for tagliatelle Bolognese( in my opinion it needed a little more cooking and better mixture with the sauce, they didn't have Harmony together). The yogurt and the green beans was unnecessary edition It was very plain It didn't add anything to there combination. Overall it was a good experience. Usually the wait in line average about 30 to 40 minutes.

There was a queue for lunch but we got seated pretty quickly (much easier if you are a two). Great choices including lovely seasonal /special options which we had to try! Served pretty quick even though it was very busy. Nice atmosphere of different people visiting and locals. Don't miss out on the desserts if you have room!

Questo restaurante e veramente eccezionale Ne vale la pena aspettare e mangiare bene Se volete pasta fresca fatta per bene questo è il posto justo

The food was amazing. I had the lasagna and it was made traditional bologna style with spinach pasta. Service was great. Very friendly staff. Already made pasta to take home was nice.

ven if there is a line outside, it goes by very quickly. Inside you will find tables for 2, and 4 people, and one large community table. We were seated at the large table. In the price everything is included, water, side dish, bun and service charge. ( We ordered: Lasagna: as per my wife it is the best lasagna she ever had. For me it is 3/5. Tagliatelle Al regu: they are good, nothing outstanding. You can taste the freshness, the meal is very simple (traditional)

TLDR: Fresh tasty pasta at terrific prices, though maybe not worth waiting in line for an hour. Walking by this place on a Tuesday evening a line of about 20-25 people waited outside the door. Wow popular! They don't take reservations so best get there early as a limited amount of each pasta is made daily so your luck might be out on a few options later in the evening. Not sure if this is necessarily a spot local foodies would vouch for, because almost everyone in line was a foreign tourist. This point I didn't really realize until I too, as a foreign tourist, waited the following day during lunch for about 40 minutes in line before being seated. It's bustling inside! Waitstaff keep the line outside very organized, asking for the number of people in each party well before you enter the door. Inside the restaurant is deeper than it looks from the outside, it seats about 40 people. They have the English menu written on a chalkboard so it's easy to view, and also accessible via QR code. You write your order on a paper pad and give it to a wait staff. It took a while to both get someone's attention and also get tap water, they said they'd bring it when I placed the order though I had to ask again after my pasta arrived. The tagliatelle with ragu was pretty good--maybe bc it was the 3rd iteration of pasta with tomato based sauce that I had on my trip but it didn't particularly stand out. The pasta was fresh and perfectly cooked, the ragu was good--just enough sauce to coat the pasta. Some of the other more creative options sounded appealing, though visually when checking out other diners' plates they didn't really look or smell delicious in a way that would've made me super stoked to try them. I would probably give them another shot to try a few of their more seasonal pastas, though the line is not necessarily one I'd like to contend with, at least when it's warm outside. Asking for the check also took longer than expected, everyone seemed to be hurriedly doing one thing or another. There is a counter at the front of the restaurant where you can order a selection of desserts and uncooked pastas to go. I saw quite a few groups come in to buy pasta. A couple bathrooms are located at the back of the restaurant.

I agree with what most have reviewed already, so I won't get too deep. The pro's: -English menu posted on the wall, so no need to struggle -servers speak English (tourist friendly) The con's: -pasta was mid, at least my meal (lemon & spinach pasta) - possible tourist trap, prices didn't match the experience. Wouldn't come out my way to visit, but if in the area and convenient for you then perhaps?

We had high expectation based on previous reviews but honestly were not impressed with the food at Sfoglia Rina. After waiting about 15 minutes, we were seated and ordered by writing on a pad of paper. The pasta itself was delicious and homemade but both sauces (Ragu and Parmesan cream) were not very good. The Ragu lacked flavor, as did the Parmesan cream. It's nice that bread, water, and a rotating side dish are included with the cost of the meal. Although affordable, we left disappointed. Maybe it was just an off night but we have had much better dinners in Bologna.

The food was credibly delicious and hits our palate. Tortellini parmigiano , lasagna bolognese, tagliatelle alla ragu with sparkling lambrusco. We cleaned the plate. Except one entry or sitter guy was impolite and turned us off with his unwanted demeanor. But the other servers were great.

Love this restaurant! This place is a true gem, and was especially welcome after spending the last couple days in Venice, which has mostly over-priced, tourist-trap types of restaurants, with mediocre food. On the other hand, Sfoglia had amazing, tasty, and authentic Bolognese cuisine, with fast, friendly service and affordable prices. The ambiance was casual, with a modern feel. Also, unlike most restaurants in Europe, the water was free!

Love the unique seasonal spread of pastas they have compared to some more traditional spots!! Rlly veggie accommodating and i love that the meal comes as a set. I mistakenly ordered the side separately not knowing it already comes w a small portion but i wasnt mad cuz it was great - mild and crunchy giardinera to break up the pasta ! For my pasta i got black tortelli w endive and potatoes, served in tomatoes, olives, w potato chips. It was tooooooo good

This was a great find. Tons of seating. You write down what you want and it appears a short time later. Food was excellent. Service was friendly and efficient.

If you want authentic and fresh Italian pasta that locals come to then COME HERE. If you don't want to wait in a long line then come after the Italian lunch time which is between 3PM - 5PM. They seat you and write down on a piece of paper your order. It was only 2 of us but did we get 3 pastas? Yes and I regret nothing!!! We got the gramigna which was cooked perfectly - right in between al dente and soft. The sausage had a lot of flavor. This was the one I didn't expect to like so much and ended up being my favorite! The tortellini with butter and sage filled with ricotta is such a simple dish yet packs so much flavor. The Italians really understand simplicity! The ricotta was creamy and the sauce was buttery with that hint of sage. I also got the tagliatelle with bolognese and it was good but the other dishes outshined it. I wished it had more ragu sauce on it! Overall, I'd come here again and again if I was in Bo

When we arrived there was already a line of people and our taxi driver said good luck getting in. We got seated shortly and the whole menu procedure was difficult. Our waitress was no help and was rushing us to order from their menu that was different from the one online. We were a group of 7 and they were out of lots of things that they had on the menu . They kept telling us to hurry up because the kitchen was closing soon! We all ate, and we weren't offered any dessert, despite seeing the couples that were seated opposite of us eating desserts and drinking coffee. We made the trip to Bologna for the sole purpose of eating at this restaurant while staying in Rome. We did not like the food that was inadequately cooked, the inattentive waitresses that were scarce, and it also seemed like the staff was hurrying everyone to get out of their restaurant so that they could go home or to the club.

Super popular spot in Bologna, although I can't say I was impressed. The waiters were rude and the food was ok. Quaint spot with quaint decorations and a nice market section for pastas etc. We ordered the tagliatelle with ragù alla bolognese (good, not great) and the lasagna alla bolognese (way overcooked to the point that pasta was brittle). We got there at a good time and we're ushered in, but when we left there was a line almost around the block. May give them another try next time I'm in Bologna.

Ambience feels like you are in a great authentic Italian restaurant. Unfortunately, it is a low quality mediocre restaurant for tourists. All reviews are from tourists likely with no true Italian cuisine experience. Every dish was tasteless, gnocchi with no potato taste, lasagna was inedible even with olive oil. Large bottle of water offered was tap water. Green pasta with sausage also tasteless. Skip this place if you are looking for authentic food.

Fabulous. Wonderful. Use any superlative you like. The food is simple and delicious. I wish it was a block away so I could ear there all the time. If you have the chance, stand in line and wait your turn. It is really extraordinarily delicious.

We were excited to try this restaurant. The ambiance is relaxed, meant to feel like a home cooked meal sitting at the kitchen table. Two of us ordered the Tagliatelle Bolognese. It was under cooked - very al dente and almost crunchy. The sauce was very good. One person ordered the Tigella and enjoyed the selection of meets with the creamy cheese. We gave it a 7/10 because we were rushed and the pasta was undercooked.

What An amazing pasta spot. Fresh pasta, open kitchen crafting up one of the most delicious pasta ever. Reasonable price. This place gets packed during lunch so we got there right before they open at 11;30 and managed to grab a table. By the time we finished at 12:30 the line was so long. Definitely a must to get their tortellini, it's packed with meat flavor and chewy texture. It pairs with a side which really Opened up the appetite. Love the ambience and staff were kind. Right outside you can purchase fresh pasta to go.

I got here right at opening and there was already a line, which should give an indication of how good this place was. Once the kitchen opened, everyone was seated promptly as they have a big space to fit everyone in, which means minimal wait times. They have a lot of different sized tables for different party sizes and a communal tables for solo diners/food tours. They give you a piece of paper to write your order and the food comes out promptly after. I started off with their house red, which was great and complimented the rest of the meal well. I ordered the tagliatelle Bolognese and the lasagna Bolognese. Even though they were similar, they were actually quite different. The tagliatelle was cooked well (I expected to be more al dente based of previous stops on the trip, but was actually surprised that it was softer). The ragu was great in both dishes. The lasagna had the added extra cheese which made a big difference from the tagliatelle. Everything was really well done and I can't recommend this place enough.

We had a hankering for this place for 3 days! What a wonderful surprise and great place to eat. Excellent Pasta. Creatively made but within local tradition. The waiter (Fabrizio from Brazil) made great recommendations. The best of our 4 dishes were the Gramigna Salsiccia (made from "nettles") and medaglioni ( black ravioli) - both amazing. Service was great. House Wine was great. Dinner was so good, we also ordered the lasagne to go. It was all worth it and a value for the price.

A solid 4.5/5 restaurant, Sfoglia Rina delivers promising dishes that warrant a visit. Their dishes are well priced and the dining room has a cozy atmosphere. You first enter their store where they sell fresh pasta. There are plenty of options and could be great for anyone looking to dine in. A little bit further back, you're seated at a dimly lit, A/C'ed room and greeted by one of their waiters. The Italian menus are written on the walls, while the English menu is brought to you on a giant chalkboard. A neat idea! The well-spoken waiter, who welcomed us in perfect English, was very kind. However, the other waiters were a bit cold and short fused. The service was slow, but the dishes were incredible. Tasty sauces cover perfectly al dente and fresh pasta. The bolognese lasagna stole the show! I would definitely come back for it. They only have wine and beer, so forget ordering cocktails (even non-alcoholic).

This place sells fresh pasta in the front of the store and dine in area in the back of the store. All order comes with water, bread and veggies, my boys said they have the best lasagna and Bolognese sauce.

Incredible pasta and dishes . Many locals just come grab pasta to go home and cook which attest to their quality . Super friendly staff

The lasagna and bolognese pasta are incredible. Prices are also reasonable as well. Highly recommend making a stop here if you're in the area!

Ultra fresh and beautifully presented pasta can be found here. It's so good that there is typically a line of people out the door. Bring your tortellini game to new heights by checking out this amazing restaurant. If I were to pick one restaurant to go to in Bologna, it'd be Sfoglia Rina!

The best lasagna I have ever had. The place is crowded and so popular. You need to stay in a line.

I really wanted to love this place. I came here twice. Even though my first experience was extremely poor, I still gave it a second chance and it fell short in every way. Let me explain. First time there, we came on a Saturday around 700pm. There was a line and the waitress mentions the kitchen closes at 830 so it's possible we don't get seated. Understood and we still put our name in line. Behind us in line there was an Italian family and then an Asian family. We waited quite a while and we were next in line at around 740pm. The waitress came out and proceeded to completely ignore us and I watched her ask the Italian family to come in to be seated. I stopped her and asked why we weren't being seated and she said to me "this is the last table we can seat as the kitchen is closing at 8pm". To which I replied "OK, but we are line before this family." She didn't believe me and we double checked the list she had in hand and there my name was but crossed out. She apologized and seated us. What was really surprising was that shortly after she still decided to seat the Italian family that was behind us.....even though she was prepared to turn us away because the kitchen was closed. I won't jump to any conclusions here but it felt very weird. When we sat down to order our food, we put our order in maybe 2-3 minutes after the Italian family that was seated right next to us. However their food came out almost instantly while we waited almost 40 minutes for our food. The servers were incredibly dismissive to us and didn't even bring us water after multiple asks. When our food did come out, the server was so careless that when she was setting our dishes down in front of us, she smacked me in the face with the wooden board. She didn't even say sorry until my boyfriend kind of made a big deal out of it. Onto the food..... The pasta is great. I love the mouth feel and the taste. I will give them that. But the flavors were not. The lasagna was under-seasoned and very mushy. The ravioli was undercooked as parts of the pasta were still raw. Sauce was not memorable at all. The cherry tomatoes had no flavor and didn't add to the dish whatsoever. The basil lacked flavor as well. To me, it seems like the ingredients outside of the pasta itself were of low quality or someone is just not doing quality control. The wine and beers were also some of the worst I've had in Bologna. Hell, the 2 buck chuck I got at the open market tasted miles better. The only thing we liked was the Tortellini in brodo. Very simple and the meat inside the Tortellini very tasty. But like I said, I WANTed to like this place so I told my boyfriend it was maybe just a fluke and perhaps dining too close to closing hours was what impacted the taste. So we came again on Monday at lunch at opening. It's dedication, to pass up other restaurants in the area to come get in this freaking line for pasta again. The service was MUCH better at least. We ordered 3 dishes betwen the two of us. The Tortellini with sage and butter, broccoli risotto and the tagliatelle ragu. The sage and butter dish is good but nothing very special. I would have appreciated more sauce or a stronger sage taste. In fact I tasted no sage at all. The broccoli risotto was a disaster. The full broccoli pieces that were garnished on top were still cold/frozen in the center! Not even fresh broccoli?? Seriously? This is probably why the risotto barely had any broccoli flavor. The cuttlefish was OK but quite a delicate flavor which made the huge chunks of candied lemon confusing. You have this risotto with very light cream and cuttlefish flavor and then huge chunks of candied lemon overpowering the entire dish. It just didn't work. The ragu was the nail in the coffin. The noodles while deliciously al-dente but were covered in cold ragu sauce.... We asked them if the dish was meant to be cold and he said no and that he would get us a new dish. The second dish came out pretty fast but was STILL COLD. How? And why? When I went to pay, the lady at the register was on her phone while I just stood there and waited. When she was finally done, she rang me up and threw the card reader across the counter at me. After I paid she threw the receipt across the counter even though I had my hand out to receive the receipt. Wtf! This place is all hype. I would not recommend it to anyone!

This was the best lunch of our vacation. We got there early, 11:40 and by 12, it was full. Dining is casual and the place is lively. We all ordered tortollini's. Magnifico. Such a fun spot with great food.

As a shop to buy pasta I think this is probably a five. As a restaurant my experience of the lasagna was a bit average. It was very tasty but being in the heart of pasta country I would expect something a bit special from a place so highly regarded. Perhaps I should've had some of the other fresh pasta options, that is what I would recommend to someone else visiting. It's a pleasant space and the staff are nice. At lunchtime there was a line out the door I had to wait 30 minutes. Bread roll was not very nice.

Great pasta place for lunch. You have to stand in line but the line moves quickly. We were a party of 5 with probably 15 people in front of us and we were seated in 15 minutes. Only one vegetarian option on the menu but it was very good. The meat dishes are delicious. We ate family style by sharing our dishes and our favorite was the tortellini in parmesan cream, which was filled with beef. Picture shows the English language menu with our selections shown in red circles. Go with the tortellini over the pasta.

Best lasagna I've ever eaten! That place was amazing and after that place probably you'll say "I've never eaten any lasagna in my entire life".

Tortellini in Parmesan yolk cream - The pasta was excellent. They made them fresh here and you can buy them as well. A/C want too strong, the waiting area inside is hot. They provide free water... First place we had in Italy that does that. Long wait. Better for small party. Plenty of bar space for couples.

Solid 4.5 stars! Somehow didn't discover this immediately though I had walked by a few times on the way to get gelato. Tried a bunch of different items on two different visits, they were all excellent. The tortellini en brodo is my personal favorite dish and was perfection here. Flavor, brodo all excellent and the ultimate comfort food. Another standout was the artichoke lasagna, which was a special that day. Dishes come with a small side of delicious veg. Lasagna Bolognese and Granigna were also very good. Can't wait to return! If you have kitchen facilities, buy some pasta to cook at home.

Nice place with great service. Very long line and wait to sit for lunch. The line is filled with locals and they say it's worth the wait. We had three dishes. The tortellini with tomato sage sauce. Tortellini in brodo (broth). And maccheroncini with tomatoes. The tomato sage sauce was a solid 4/5, and the tortellini was very nice. Clearly made fresh every day. The tortellini in broth was solid as well. Very tasty broth, perfect little tortellinis. The macheroncini was mediocre. Not a lot of flavor.

Nice place not too far off of P. Maggiore. Delicious authentic food with a focus on their own homemade pasta (available for purchase). The portions of tortellini, tortellini, and tagliatelle were sizable and the prices were btw 11-13 € and small salad came with it. The service is good, very causal, and accommodated our very limited Italian.

It's clear that there is a rotating menu that looks delicious! We asked for a wine recommendation and they were happy to oblige. The food is super fresh and delicious. This is a great place for lunch or a quick dinner. The seating is family style and may not be good for an intimate dinner. They do not take reservations so I recommend coming at off times. They can have a long line. It is very reasonably priced, both food and wine.

This place was a pleasant surprise. It is not your typical place with chairs and tables in a nice Piazza, but once you go inside you realize they are serious about their food. Here I had THE MOST AMAZING Tagliatelle Bolognese and my husband had a lasagna Bolognese. Amazing.

Solid meal 4.5 to 5 depending on the dish. Pasta was great, and one of the best Bolognese of the trip and we liked the sage and butter tortelloni as well. Give it a go, the pasta is fresh and the experience is unique.

Visited Florence, Modena, and Rome but the best pasta I had in Italy was in Bologna at Sfoglia Rina! My best friend from high school is studying in Bologna and took us to this lovely restaurant. It's only open for lunch and always busy! We went around 2PM on a Tuesday and every table was full. I ordered tortelloni with butter and sage. My husband ordered the gnocchi and my friend the vegetarian ravioli with raisins. Everything was phenomenal! The pasta was unreal, so fresh and truly al dente. The gnocchi was the star dish though, I thought I was eating tiny fluffy pillows. I definitely had food envy. The place was filled with all locals and most people seemed to be eating tagliatelle bolognese which is what Bologna is known for. My only regret is that I didn't eat here again.

This place was recommended by the Female Foodie and we happened to walk by it. We had the Gramigna with Sausage and it was so good! The service was great and the place is cool. Loved the experience.

Amazing food. True kitchen bolognese. Especially tortellini in brodo! Best place for lunch (and dinner)!

Our food came out cold and was really mediocre. The place looked cute, but I feel like that's all it has to offer. The bathroom was gross and didn't look like it was cleaned recently. Go find some good food elsewhere. This is not the place...

Two quick tips about not getting shafted into a tourist trap when travelling through Italy: -step inside. If all you hear is Italian, you're good. -look at the menu. If it's a small concentrated menu of items rather than a giant mess with tons and tons of options, you're good. I say this because this restaurant was in an area surrounded by tourist traps, advertising things like spaghetti and meatballs (nobody actually eats that in Italy). But when I took a quick step in here, not a soul was speaking English, and their entire menu consisted of a few items on a chalkboard in the middle of the room. Not to mention the beautiful fresh pasta bar at the front where people were picking up pasta by the pound to take home, but I digress. Bologna is known for two main dishes: Tortellini in Brodo and Tagliatelle al Ragu. Going by the old saying "When in Bologna" (hmm that sounds a bit off for some reason), I ordered both those dishes. The tortellini was very good, but just not to my taste. It's filled with prosciutto, which is a particularly salty cut of meat. It was more my fault for not asking what was supposed to be inside the tortellini, but if I was craving something salty, I definitely would've liked it better. The Broth that the tortellini came in though was delicious. It was a very light broth, but somehow still very flavorful. I ended up finishing all the broth but only a quarter of the tortellini. The star was definitely the Tagliatelle al Ragu. All throughout my trip in Italy, I've been hearing how Bologna has the best Ragu. Well even though I was expecting something delicious, I was still amazed at how good it was. There isn't really a good way to describe how the Ragu tasted, just know that it was worth far more than I paid for it. While we're on the subject, here's a third quick tip for navigating tourist traps in Italy. If the place is expensive, it's probably a tourist trap. Italians go out to eat far more than Americans do, so restaurants don't have to worry about getting customers as much, and keep their prices low to make up for it. My entire meal, which included the two large dishes (each of them is enough to feed one person), some charcuterie on the side, and a glass of wine, all came out to less than 20 euros. I would've gladly paid more

The waiting time, poor service and average food do not demand a good review. This restaurant is over rated. We shared 4 different dishes, and none rose above average, so the people who rave about this restaurant do not know good Italian food. Eat somewhere else and thank me later.

The tortellini in brot is very delicious! The broth was deep and full of flavor, and the tortellini were perfectly cooked and seasoned. It's very similar to wonton soup!

They give priority to Italians first. We ordered and waited 10 min for them to give us water and the drinks we ordered (I had to remind them). Another 30 min go by and STILL NO FOOD. After asking where our food was, they reluctantly inform us they messed up our order...SO then we wait another 20 min for it to arrive. They offered us zero apologies, no compensation, nothing. The food was good so there is one extra star given but I would not give them business for such terrible service. Plenty of other restaurants in Bologna.

One of the best lasagnas i have ever tried. It was 8 euros and it came with a small bread.

Modern, affordable, Bolognese food, Vegetarian, Vegan options Arrived at 6:30 pm to plenty of open tables. Staff was very welcoming. They spoke English and were patient with our horrible Italian. Being so close to closing, half of the menu was sold out, however, the weekly menu did have a vegan and vegetarian dish listed. My dad is vegan and finding dairy and egg free food in Europe can be tricky. I had the tagliatelle al ragù, which was a perfect portion and so yummy.  Affordable: 2 entrees + 2 glasses white wine + 1 bottle red wine = 40 euro  Chic interior design with fresh pasta case in store front and dining rooms in back with decorative, whimsical nods to the pasta-making process.  Only con was that I couldn't eat more!

We had lunch here with a very small group on a guided walking tour of Bologna. Seemed like a very popular lunch place, We got there a few minutes before noon and suddenly the place was packed. Service was excellent and so was the food.

I can only echo what I everyone has said. This place is fabulous. Better to earlier than later as items are scratched off the board as they run out. The torta di ricotta e fichi was an outstanding dessert. The service is great but a little untraditional. After you are seated you write your order on a provided pad and find a server to hand it to.
