    Three floors full of Italian foods and books. Tables service out front & a menu is posted. There was table service. It seemed pretty ironic to me since Italy is American and it's sitting in the middle of the hugest most delicious Italian food hall I've ever seen. Why would anyone go here?

    Eataly is one of my favorite bookstores and restaurant in Bologna. Ideal place to enjoy lunch or dinner. They have a variety of Gluten-free products for Celiac folks. I could have been happy to eat here everyday that is how pleasant the food was for me. Who ever came up with this awesome bookstore concept, it was a superb idea.

    More fun children's books.

    What I loved about the Bologna EATALY was the little bar on the first floor where I could pick up a to-go salad, and choose the ingredients. I mean, the pasta is fantastic in Bologna, but was in need of a good salad. Look at the freshness! Was craving artichokes, so went heavy on that and some tuna. Also the beautiful arugula, shaved fennel and carrots. Later, wandering around on an upper floor, I found the bookstore section. What a treat! Love the children's books, in Italian language, of course.

    It was so cool to see the original Eatly store. So many books and cooking products to shop around for inside. We ate dessert inside the store. It is always lovely to have some Italian dessert.

    Italy is Eataly, or so their t-shirts proclaim. One of my favorite places in downtown Bologna was this combination cafe, wine bar and grocery store on three floors inside the amazing bookstore, Ambasciatori. Talk about your one-stop shop. While the bookstore dominates the real estate, there is a cafe on the first floor, deli on the second floor (with one long communal table for seating) and wine bar on the third. On the top level they also sell pasta, sauces and kitchen accessories in La Dispensa. I drank, I shopped, I was happy. A local recommended visiting the wine bar that is a cozy space filled with small tables as well as a kitchen bar. The building is a renovated church (although the remains of the church are minimal), but features arched glass ceilings with beautiful beams. The architecture is beautiful, but very modern, so very different than most of the other buildings in this part of town. The walls are dominated by wine bottles, as well as some beer, so you can have a glass with some food, then buy a few bottles to take home. Many wines are served by the glass or the bottle and the Barolo (€6/glass) was recommended by our host. One thing that was quite funny is that even though this is a very casual space, they still offered a special prix fixe menu on Valentine's Day for €48 with wine. You just can't escape that "special menu" pricing wherever your travels take you.

    I recently foolishly stated it was impossible to eat a bad meal in Italy. Then I came to this restaurant. The white wine was warm. The steak chewy and it into giant inedible slabs. The chips cold and tasteless and overly salty No mayo No ketchup No gluten free options No anything Go eat anywhere except here. Final note serving staff deserve a medal but kitchen staff should be fired

    Fresh pasta with cauliflower, olives and tomato (special of the day).

    Top marks for Eataly, really impressed with the concept and execution. It's basically a bookstore that spans three levels, but on the bottom floor there is also a small deli where you can get paninis. The second floor has an informal restaurant with tables scattered around the book shelves, as well as italian produce like pasta, sauces, preserves and so on. Top floor has more books and an osteria serving up salami and cheese plus an extensive range of craft beer. We ate on the second floor and I had a fantastic pasta dish with olives, cauliflower, tomato and fresh pasta which was cooked to perfection. My partner had a mixed salami and cheese plate and loved it. Started getting very busy at 1pm so get there just before to avoid the rush. It's modern Italian and it's worth the rave. Visit!

    Three floors of food and books.
    Rick S.

    You have to visit. It's three floors of bookstore, cafe and gourmet grocery shop. Is it authentically Italian? Definitely, but the Italy of the 21st century, not the 17th. It's full of food and ideas, put together with the Italian flair for design. Check it out. Lots of fun even if you don't buy anything.

They didn't have any tables outside so we were seated inside. Service (3.5/5): No WiFi unfortunately which isn't great for an international traveler like me. Standard European service. Not terribly friendly and not terribly efficient but I would say they were a bit more attentive than the norm. They did hook us up with some complimentary limoncello shots which was a really nice touch. Ambiance (3.5/5): A little quieter since it's off the beaten path which I like. A pleasant, homey restaurant. Drinks (4.5/5): We shared a bottle of wine. And the aforementioned limoncello shots. Food (4/5): We went with their pasta for two deal where each person gets three different types of pasta that you choose from six or so options. I love getting a variety of dishes so this was a nice way to do it. Not huge portions given the price but still delicious. The dishes were served to us quickly and we got to try some pastas we had never heard of. Overall: When in Bologna, Osteria Broccaindosso makes for a fine choice. It's a 15-minute walk or so from the center of town.

It was an amazing artichoke and cheese concoction with a shredded artichoke salad on the side. The pastas were all very good. The bolognese had tender meat with a tasty sauce. The tortellini in beef broth is also a local winter dish. The tortellini were filled with a nice mixture of beef and cheese with a full bodied beef broth. A simple but delicious dish! I'm usually not a truffle fan but the spaghetti with black truffles had a good balance of truffle flavor without being overpowering. The scalloping with cheese and Parma ham was tasty.

The pasta is terrific, and the portions/prices are perfect. The classic Bolognese dish, the ragu tagliatelle, was very good, but the standout was the black truffle tortelloni. The sauces was so buttery and rich, it was incredible. If I lived close by, I would be here at least once a week just for that dish.

Upon walking through the alley I was greeted by the owner of the restaurant who was nothing but kind. After being sat down my table decided to order the mozzarella bites and our server's choice of white wine to begin with. Our server selected a wine that he had me try before giving me the entire bottle. I appreciated him letting me try the wine and asking what I wanted in the wine before selecting it. Afterwards we received our mozzarella bites that includes mini mozzarella balls, basil, and tomatoes. This was a refreshing appetizer that was a great start to our eating experience. We then placed our order for our main course. I ordered the tagliatelle al ragu bolognese. Once the dish came out the owner of the restaurant asked if I would like parmesan and he sprinkled the perfect amount. This pasta was extremely delicious and I ate every last bite. I plan to order both of these dishes again in the future. Additionally, we did not order a dessert but the owner insisted that we try the tiramisu. Thankfully, the owner gave us two slices that we devoured instantly. Along with the other two dishes, I will definitely order the tiramisu. Overall, Ristorante Teresina has an amazing menu, wonderful environment, and excellent service. All three of these aspects are why I will return to this restaurant!
