"We were just looking for a quick bite in the area and we stumbled upon Boni. We were so happy that we did! The staff were so sweet and gave us a table on a very busy Sunday even though we had no reservations. The place was packed with locals and they all seemed to be enjoying themselves a lot. We had a very sweet server, Elena, who guided us on what we should have. All her recommendations were on point. It was one of the best meals we had on our whole trip, would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Bologna!"

"Delicious food and we have even been served and tended to by the master chef himself, who gave us a brief history lesson on local cuisine. Very friendly atmosphere, though the nice lady at the check-in was a little bit overzealous with checking the vaccination certificates (March 30th,'22), but I take it as a good coin. Unquestionably recommended venue to eat out."

"Superbe and traditional trattoria in Bologna which serves unique dishes: tortellini, lasagne, tagliatelle,mortadella, squacquerone cheese and much more. It's worth it to go, don't miss eat! Remember to book in advance"

"We had a wonderful lunch at this traditional, very welcoming trattoria. We shared a lasagne verdi, and a ricotta tortelloni, both of which were beautifully made- you could tell the work and love that had gone into both. We also had a carafe of house wine (incredible value at €5, and delicious too). The staff were incredibly warm and friendly and very kind to us given we don't speak much Italian! I would highly recommend coming here during a stay in Bologna."

"We were a group of 4 and had reservations for a Monday evening. We had a wonderful meal of the L’Rustica platter (excellent!), Lasagne, the Cotoleta with mushrooms and the arosto del Giorno- all were delicious. The meal was finished with dessert and wine as well as after dinner drinks. The was one of our most enjoyable meals in Bologna- thank you. And it didn’t break the bank !"
