The best restaurants Faenza

At the entrance to the historic centre, this pizzeria is renowned for the quality of its ingredients, always fresh and supplied by small local producers. Great care is also taken with the dough, made from quality organic flours and left to rise for 24 to 48 hours, which gives it lightness and digestibility. The whole is sprinkled with a drizzle of carefully selected extra-virgin olive oil. In short, nothing is left to chance! To be accompanied by a good wine of the region or a homemade beer to do as the Italians do.

Sghisa, in the Romance dialect, means "big hunger". And this osteria is certainly a perfect place to indulge a hearty appetite! Located behind the cathedral, it has two vaulted rooms in the basement, bathed in subdued light. Although it claims to be Romagna, the kitchen does not hesitate to go beyond the carcass to offer inventive and nicely prepared dishes: fried cappelletti, ravioli stuffed with duck, fish accompanied by a scoop of fennel ice cream are on the menu. We also come here for a late night drink.

This establishment is a real institution as it is the oldest restaurant in the city, in operation since the beginning of the 19th century. This is where the poets and artists of Faenza met. Typical Romagna cuisine is served here, with platters of cold meats and cheeses accompanied by piadine, primi with homemade pasta and secondi with meat grilled over a wood fire, as the address is above all carnivorous. Rustic setting, friendly and relaxed atmosphere and welcoming staff.

It is a baracchina della piadina, a kiosk where you can order a deliciously warm piadina stuffed in a thousand different ways. These establishments, characteristic of the Romagna region, are perfect for a quick snack on the go. In Chiosco del Tondo, you can eat your piadina on the long benches or plastic garden chairs in the wooded surroundings of the Tondo city park, or take it away. It's just delicious! Ten minutes walk from the historic centre.

Located in the historical center, it is one of the most appreciated addresses in the city. A reputation that has been maintained for years thanks to the origin and quality of the food used. The restaurant's entrance is characteristic because the establishment has preserved its original grocery store décor with its retail outlet for cold cuts, cheeses and local products. A traditional cuisine with homemade pasta and tagliatelle and where meat and fish dishes are skilfully handled. It is difficult not to succumb to the homemade cakes.
