I got a hot tea with lemon, perfect for the cold. We first got the pizza Bella arte, which has a bunch of toppings. I'm not normally a huge pizza fan, but this one was quite pleasant. The crust was thin and the edges had a nice crisp on the outside, soft on the inside. It was flavored nicely and had a good variety. My only complaint would be that toppings weren't distributed evenly. There was a huge one piece of artichoke that comprised a full bite. We also opted for more traditional Balogna dishes: the tortellini en brodo, which was not bad. Soup was seasoned ok, not too salty or too bland. The tortellini itself was simple, with some meat and cheese. Seems like a nice comfort food for those who grow up with it. The tagliatelle al ragú was seasoned well too, although the actual pasta was not as bouncy as others I've had. Not bad though. However at the end we thought we had ordered panna cotta and for some reason it never came. The waiter later seemed confused even though he previously repeated "dessert panna cotta"... so I don't know. But we decided to go without the dessert.... Unfortunately. Maybe a language issue we had.

Final night in Bologna, found good reviews for Belle Arti. Not many people sitting out front on a a…read moreFriday night, but we were asked if we wanted to sit inside in the garden room instead. Several other groups in there, and it's a really nice spot. Food and wait staff were all wonderful. Our group had a mix of steaks, pizza, tortellini and lamb chops, a well as a caprese-style flatbread, and a carafe of red wine. Prices, like everywhere in Bologna, were all a fraction of what you'd pay for a far worse meal in the US, making it painful to leave town.

[Short Summ]: You CANNOT go wrong with the pizza!…read more Went here after a long day of walking around and we were happy to grab an outdoor seat immediately. It was especially great for us that it was covered seating, as it was raining all day. We started with some bruschetta. It was forgettable bread but the tomatoes and oil were both pretty good - not amazing. We eat got a pizza, and both fell in love. We went here on recommendation that it was the best pizza in italy (including Naples) and we concur (only thing better is chicago deep dish). Definitely stop by if you have time - you wont be disappointed.

Oh boy. This place…read more Bologna has some amazing restaurants, but this ain't one. From the minute we walked in until our pizza arrived, it was 50 minutes. Fifty. For pizza. (I checked the time on the corresponding photos I took.) The big problem seemed to be staffing. There were two women who seemed to be waiting on the whole restaurant. We were seated and then we waited and waited and waited and finally got menus and water. And then we waited and waited. And eventually we ordered. More waiting. Then the pizza finally came. It was tasty, but not remotely worth the wait. Someone knocked over a glass, which broke on the floor. No one cleaned it up for 15 minutes. For reasons unknown, you have to take your bill to the front of the restaurant. Their credit card machine was conveniently "broken," so we had to pay in cash. I don't care how good your food is. If the service is lousy and nobody seems to care about you, I can't dish out more than two stars.

Tasty pizza, friendly service!…read more Small but mighty! They carry pizza by the slice with a variety of toppings, both traditional and creative seasonal options. The vegan slices were €3/square, I believe more for the cheese and meat squares. They also do charcuterie boards of aged meats and cheese, and some regional wine and beer too. Ordering is simple, go up to the counter and order directly for take out or sit down at an open seat and they provide service. I wanted specific toppings so chose them up front then sat down, then also went up to the front to pay, so I think that's why they didn't charge a cover charge. When ordering pizza, they reheat the slices for you and it comes served on a wooden cheese/cutting board. I was looking for something less heavy, and loved their seasonal vegan options with unique toppings! I tried one square with black cabbage, the other green chard and marinara sauce. The dough was crisp on the bottom and had the slight chew you want in a good crust. I couldn't help thinking if American pizza shops started putting veggies like this onto their pizzas then American children wouldn't dislike veggies so much. And affordable for a snack/light lunch! Wouldn't hesitate to try some other pizza topping combinations here next time.
