10 restaurants in Parma, editor-picked for restaurants open monday. Open on monday, the day most kitchens go dark. All restaurants in Parma.
Trattoria Ai Due Platani ★ 4.7
Coloreto · Strada Budellungo 104/A, 43123 Coloreto, Parma
Hours: Thu-Mon 12:00-15:00, 20:00-23:00; Tue-Wed closed
Trattoria Ai Due Platani in Coloreto holds Gambero Rosso's Tre Gamberi and a Bib Gourmand, ten minutes from Parma and booked out weeks ahead for tortelli.
Tip: Reserve well in advance, even midweek. Finish with the house cream gelato, churned in a 1964 Carpigiani machine the owners refuse to retire.
Ristorante Cocchi ★ 4.6
oltretorrente · Viale Antonio Gramsci 16/A, 43126 Parma
Hours: Sun-Fri 12:15-14:15, 19:15-22:00; Sat closed (Sat-Sun closed in June and July)
Ristorante Cocchi has fed Parma's bourgeoisie since 1925: anolini in brodo, the trio of tortelli and, from September to April, a serious bollito trolley.
Tip: The bolliti run September to April only. Book a day ahead for Sunday lunch, when Parma families claim most of the two dining rooms.
Trattoria Antichi Sapori ★ 4.5
Gaione · Via Montanara 318, 43124 Parma
Hours: Thu-Sat 12:00-13:45, 19:45-22:00; Sun 12:00-13:45, 19:45-21:30; Mon 12:00-13:45, 19:45-21:00; Wed 19:45-22:00; Tue closed
Trattoria Antichi Sapori sits in Gaione's countryside just outside Parma with a 2026 Bib Gourmand; the same kitchen team has rolled its pasta since 2005.
Tip: Order the square tortelli that made the trattoria's name. Book ahead for summer evenings; the drive from central Parma takes about ten minutes.
Trattoria Corrieri ★ 4.4
centro-storico · Via Conservatorio 1, 43121 Parma
Hours: Daily 12:00-24:00
Trattoria Corrieri fills an old posthouse courtyard near Parma's Parco Ducale with torta fritta, tortelli d'erbetta and anolini served all day long.
Tip: It runs continuous service from noon to midnight, so aim for 15:00 or 18:30 to skip the queues that build at classic meal times.
Osteria del 36 ★ 4.3
centro-storico · Strada Aurelio Saffi 26/A, 43121 Parma
Hours: Lunch and dinner Mon-Sat; Sun closed; summer break mid-July to late August
Osteria del 36 traces its name to 1880, when wine here cost 36 cents a litre; chef Francesco Ziveri has run its Emilian kitchen in Parma since 1997.
Tip: It closes from mid-July to around 20 August each summer, so check before an August visit and book for the small wine-lined room.
Trattoria Sorelle Picchi ★ 4.3
centro-storico · Strada Luigi Carlo Farini 27, 43121 Parma
Hours: Daily 12:00-15:00, 19:00-22:30
Trattoria Sorelle Picchi grew out of a historic salumeria on Strada Farini in Parma, so lunch starts at the counter: culatello, coppa and spalla cotta.
Tip: The front counter is a working salumeria whose boards also sell to take away; tables book in two seatings at lunch, 12:00 and 13:45.
Trattoria del Tribunale ★ 4.2
centro-storico · Vicolo Politi 5, 43121 Parma
Hours: Daily 12:00-15:00, 19:00-23:00
Trattoria del Tribunale hides in a lane behind Parma's courthouse, rolling tortelli, anolini and tagliatelle daily under a ceiling of hanging salumi.
Tip: Open every day including Sunday evening, which is rare in central Parma. The lane entrance on Vicolo Politi is easy to walk past.
Osteria Virgilio ★ 4.2
oltretorrente · Strada Giovanni Inzani 3/B, 43125 Parma
Hours: Mon-Wed, Fri-Sat 12:30-14:30, 19:00-21:00; Thu 12:30-14:30; Sun closed
Osteria Virgilio is Oltretorrente Parma at its most honest: 36-month prosciutto, anolini in brodo and horse tartare in a small room with natural wines.
Tip: The room seats very few, so call ahead. Gazzetta di Parma's February 2026 review called it a modern osteria of local tradition and a posto del cuore.
Soj Vino e Cucina ★ 4.2
centro-storico · Borgo del Parmigianino 26, 43121 Parma
Hours: Mon-Thu 19:30-22:30; Fri 12:00-14:00, 19:30-22:30; Sat-Sun closed
Soj Vino e Cucina seats about fifteen people around an open kitchen in Parma, where chefs Federico Capocasa and Eugenio Restivo cook and serve everything.
Tip: The two chefs are also the waiters and sommeliers, so the pace is theirs. Reserve by phone and ask for the counter seats facing the open kitchen.
Croce di Malta ★ 4.0
centro-storico · Borgo Palmia 8, 43121 Parma
Hours: Mon-Wed, Fri-Sat 12:30-15:00, 19:00-23:00; Sun 12:30-15:00; Thu closed
Croce di Malta keeps a small bright modern room off Parma's Piazza Garibaldi, cooking precise seasonal plates built on herbs and artisan produce.
Tip: Gazzetta di Parma reviewed it warmly in January 2025 for balanced, modern cooking. Sunday is lunch only and Thursday is the closing day.
