10. Mr. Lob

Elegante accoglienza sulle tinte del rosso e del nero. Le proposte del menù incuriosiscono chi, come me, è sempre alla ricerca di nuovi sapori. Come entrée câè stato servito una tartare di carote, patate e rapa rossa: colorata e molto fresca. Le cape sante avvolte nel lardo di colonnata erano superlative: leggermente dolci, tenere da sciogliersi in bocca e con il lardo che non sovrastava gli altri sapori. Il panino Mr Lob era delizioso, estremamente soffice e abbondantemente farcito con unâottima astice (forse troppo marcato il burro del panino mentre la stracciatella era quasi assente). Per concludere, il mix di battute di pesce presentava abbinamenti ricercati che permettevano di valorizzare i singoli ingredienti esaltandone i sapori. Ottimo in tutto e per tutto!

Specializing in local Emiliana cuisine, the decor and service are as good as the food and wine. The wine list is good and reasonably priced. My risotto with fresh white truffles was nicely prepared, and my wifeâs bollito misto was also delicious.

My husband and I had dinner at La Quercia at the suggestion of our B&B. From the time we arrived the experience was enchanting. Our personable and welcoming waitress brought us the basket of bread and the fried gnocchi. From there she served us the scrumptious parmigiano reggiano drizzled with 30 year old balsamic vinegar. Our salivary glands were in high gear. Then our primo arrived! My husband had the maccheroni with fresh porcini and ragù while I delighted in the Tortelli of zucca with a sausage sauce. All the flavors were perfectly balanced. Taken by the parmigiano container, we could not help but ask about it. Well it was for purchase. So we left with a lovely memory of the evening. But that is not all. Upon exiting we were saluted by white geese and not only. Next to our vehicle was a Maserati and only a few steps away we saw a Pagani. Yes, we had dinner at the perfect location.

We loved this Trattoria, very local and a bit ârusticâ, what makes the flair of this place. The wine selection is a bit limited (Lambrusco or normal) but this didnât bother us at all. Food amazing with big portions. Nice the free digestives at the end.

We enjoyed amazing food here in a relaxed setting as well as delicious wine, all at a very reasonable price.We managed to be seated outside immediately after coming from the Mercato Albinelli, service was friendly and menus were available in Italian and English. The food here is that of Puglia rather than Modena, but is so good that Bottega Mama Puglia is well worth a visit.

Piccolo ed elegante locale, vicino al centro di Modena, dove assaporare pesce crudo dalla Sicilia e le ostriche dalla Bretagna. Grande carta dei vini con un occhio particolare agli champagne e alle bollicine italiane.
Reviewed By GBBee
Elegant dining experience.Although there was limited vegetarian options on the menu (the restaurant specialises in fish dishes) we enjoyed a beautiful meal of spinach and ricotta tortelloni in sage butter and typical Modena deserts. All paired with a beautiful light sparkling rose wine. The waiter spoke excellent English.Catered for nut allergy without a problem.A little pricey but worth it for a romantic and classy dining experience. Obvious a place for locals rather than tourists which makes it a more authentic dining experience.Would highly recommend.

We stopped by for an early dinner (5pm) since we had skipped lunch while touring the two Ferrari museums. We were greeted warmly - and enjoyed their air conditioned dining room. I really liked my eggplant Parmigiano. They bent over backwards to enhance the Italian / English communication gap. Lovely hosts.

We absolutely loved this restaurant, we suggest making a reso straight away, don't hesitate. We did two different tasting menus with wine pairings. This allowed us to try the different flavors. The price was very good considering the quality of both food and wine and they were very generous with the wine. If only we lived closer, we would definitely go often. TripAdvisor is bang on with the reviews, go before the waiting lists become too long!
