Ragū — Local services in Bologna

I learned about this place from a video posted by an italian chef on youtube, so I tried.

Coming to Bologna, you can't miss the green lasagna. Ragū is one of the places where you can get it for a price of 9 EUR.

The place was small and more like a snacking spot instead of a restaurant. And the lasagna was also served in a container box, even if you dine in.

What I liked about the lasagna was that the pasta sheets where rather thick so it was chewy. The portion was similar to what you can get in a restaurant and for me it was enough for dinner.

One thing that can be improved, I think, is to put more cheese and bechamel sauce in the layers. I think there was a good amount of meat but with that and the chewy pasta, more sauce and cheese is needed to make them mix together more nicely. As it was, it...

We tried Ragū while in Bologna and really enjoyed it. We ordered takeaway and went for the lasagna and the tagliatelle al ragù tradizionale. The lasagna was good, but the tagliatelle was incredible—rich, flavorful, and exactly what you’d hope for when looking for traditional Bolognese pasta. The taste was super authentic, like a homemade meal.

The place itself is very casual and unpretentious, which we liked. It’s all about the food here, and they do it really well. Portions are on the smaller side, though, so if you’re hungry, I’d recommend ordering a couple of dishes per person or sharing three plates...

We found this place 3 years ago, in an Easter trip thru Italy. This year I forced my friends to stop in Bologna just to eat here.

Don’t read this review. We should all have made a pact to keep this place a secret 🤫 I know, I know, it wouldn’t be fair to the heads and hearts behind Ragū …

We tried everything. One of each. Everything was perfect.

I’ve been chasing the high of their tagliatelle antica ricetta ever since I tried it those years ago. Their lasagne is also perfect, so is their tagliatelle al ragu tradizionale.

I think we’ll make a mandatory stop if we’re within a few hundred...
