Trattoria da Me

We had a lovely dinner experience at this restaurant and the menu was very nice. Several meals looked really tasty, making it hard for us to pick. The waitress was super friendly and provided us with some recommendations and the food was tasty. Unfortunately none of the dessert items spoke to us so we didn’t end up trying those. Generally speaking we had a nice time and were glad to have made the reservation. The pluma dish was quite unique and unlike anything I have had before.

The place is just great. When we arrived, we were unaware of it being on the Michelin list, but it is still quite reasonably priced for the portions, taste and experience. The servers are quite friendly and welcoming. They told us to be adventurous and it definitely was a good advice!

So, this review is basically based around one dish. I was in the mood for some meat. This was the most expensive dish on the menu (not saying it was expensive). We did take a starter to share which was nice.. but back to this dish. €25 for approximately 50gr of meat and also not telling me that this dish is just like an appetizer.. that i would need something more to be content. Overall the staff was nice and helpful but this dish was a joke and i would not recommend this to anyone.

Well it's really popular, so I rocked up at 7:45.... they open for dinner at 7:30pm.... and already the place was almost full! But they had room for a table for 1. But straight away you can tell this is a michelin place. The service was impeccable. The food was great, I had a starter of raw sausage and fried polenta. It was really good. They bring you a paper bag of the best crusty bread ever.. wow, it was great. I had a craft beer while I waited to order. I went for the classic tagliatelle bolognese... then asked the waitress to choose me a glass of wine to go with my mains. She brought a Sangiovese, wow .. really delicious. Be warned though, when I paid I was told you can't leave tips on a card, only cash. Which was a problem.

After reading some differing reviews, we didn’t know what to expect going into this dinner. We tried to go for lunch on a Sunday and were turned away because it’s reservation only (for both lunch and dinner). They told us we have to make a reservation online. We made one for Tuesday dinner. They had both Italian and English menus, and treated us very kindly. Okay the food: Outstanding. We got the “don’t call me an artichoke” for a starter, the tagliatelle with ragu and gnocchi for primis (both the best pasta we’ve had here), and the iberian pluma for a secondi. The pluma was the most tender meat I’ve ever tasted. We finished with tres de leche and chocolate mouse for dessert - both wonderful. The service: it was okay. They were very nice, but a it’s a bit hectic since multiple people are waiting on the same tables and they seat everyone at once. There is a separate waiter that handles wine, so it took several minutes for us to get our glasses of wine (which was fine). They also brought us the wrong dessert and didn’t bring us more water when we asked, but again, not a big deal to us personally. All in all, the food alone makes this place absolutely worth a visit.

We did a whirlwind tour of Italy last month and this was hands down the best place we ate. All 8 of us for dinner were amazed at the food, service, and just pure passion for what they do there. Even the most "simple" dish of tortellini in broth popped with flavors that I still remember. I will be recommending this place to everyone and anyone.

One of the best meals we had on our 10 day trip to Italy! So many unique and delicious options to try!! Amazing service and vibe. Our waitress was incredibly helpful and fun!! She had great suggestions and recommendations. So helpful! Now the food…. I am still dreaming about the Panna Cotta. Panna. Cotta. Yes. If we plan another trip to Bologna, it will be because I must have it again!!! The cheese ice cream and crescentina have also been making regular appearances in my daydreams. Normally they only have the Lasagna Verde on Sundays but we were lucky enough to get some on a weekday. I am so glad!! It was phenomenal!! My hubs got a ravioli dish and we got another dish to share (pork cheek I think) and we both said we should have just had a second lasagna and another round of cheese ice cream!! lol I don’t remember what my hubs got for dessert cause all my attention was on mine…the panna cotta!! The Lambrusco was also very good! I can’t remember for sure but I think it was the Baby Magnum (when I asked if it was red or white, our waitress said more like orange! lol!!) We did have reservations. Not sure what the wait is like without it, but with one we had no wait to be sat and our meal flowed perfectly as we finished each course! Was a lovely and memorable experience in a beautiful city.

Great spot, great service and friendly staff. Food is good, correctly seasoned and medium portioned. I recommend coming very hungry for the full experience
