Trattoria da Gianni in Bologna's Quadrilatero is the long-running family room on Via Clavature, running the canonical Bolognese carte and the Sunday carrello.
OrderTagliatelle al ragu, the cotoletta alla bolognese, the Sunday carrello dei bolliti.
TipBook a fortnight ahead for Sunday lunch; the Quadrilatero is loud after 19:30 and the lunch service is the calmer seating.
Pizzeria Altero on Via dell'Indipendenza in Bologna is the 1957-founded pizza-al-taglio counter, an old-school Bolognese counter serving slabs of pizza rossa.
OrderThe pizza rossa al taglio, the crescentine fritte, the slab pizza with mortadella.
TipCash and card both fine; the counter runs 11:00-22:00 daily and the queue thins after the lunch peak.
Ristorante Da Vito in Bologna's San Donato is the long-running family room blending the Bolognese pasta tradition with Adriatic-fish service.
OrderThe truffle tortelli in season, the fritto misto, the sea bass in salt crust.
TipBook a fortnight ahead; the Friday-night seafood carte is the most-booked seating and the cellar is heavy on Trebbiano di Romagna.
Vicolo Colombina in Bologna's Quadrilatero is the small-room trattoria one alley off Via Drapperie, with the Bolognese pasta canon, a strong local cellar.
OrderTagliatelle al ragu, tortellini in brodo, the carpaccio of Chianina.
TipBook three days ahead online; the dining room is intimate and the Quadrilatero passeggiata is loud after 19:30.
Il Passatello di Bologna on Via Zappoli, off Piazza VIII Agosto, cooks passatelli in broth or with sausage and porcini beside tagliatelle and cotoletta.
OrderPassatelli with sausage and porcini, then the cotoletta alla Bolognese.
TipClosed Tuesday, and shut from 4 to 20 August in 2026. The upstairs room is small and tables sit close, so book by phone for a weekend dinner.
Tamburini in Bologna's Quadrilatero is the 1932-founded salumeria-and-self-service operating from Via Caprarie, with cured-meat counters, a daily-changing.
OrderThe mortadella tagliere, the daily pasta plate, a tigella with squacquerone.
TipThe self-service runs 11:00-22:00 daily; the salumi counter closes at 19:30 and the aperitivo crowd takes over after 18:00.
