Trattoria Da Vito

We came to this restaurant after searching for a traditional, authentic and local place to eat in bologna, and we definitely hit the spot! The meals were eye-wateringly delicious, thank god we came here. It was the best meal in our whole trip to Italy so far. We didn't make a reservation and we nevertheless got a table inside. The cottoleta alla bolognese had a cheesy sauce, and they gave us infinite parmesan to sprinkle all over. The green lasagna was the best lasagna I've tried in my life, honestly. And the pasta e faglioli was such a nice change from the usual pizza and pasta we always eat. I love beans so it's great that there's an Italian dish with it. You wouldn't even think it was a trattoria from the outside, it seems to be a well hidden gem of the locals. And perhaps because of that, the prices were incredible. Everything was below 10 euros, compared to the super expensive city center. Everyone eating there was Italian, and you could actually enjoy the culture there, without any fake tourist traps. I wish I had this trattoria next to my home!!!
