About Ristorante Da Nello
Since 1927, this white-tablecloth establishment has served Bologna's business and political elite. The tortellini are rolled to the exact 8mm diameter specified in the traditional recipe, and the bollito misto (mixed boiled meats) is wheeled out on a cart every Thursday.
Insider Tips
Reserve a table on Thursday for the bollito misto cart service. The sommelier has access to older Lambrusco vintages not listed on the menu.
