Last night, I had the pleasure of dining at Temakinho Bologna, and I'm excited to share my experience with fellow food enthusiasts. Located in the heart of Bologna, this trendy establishment combines the best of Japanese and Brazilian cuisines, offering a unique and tantalizing dining experience.
Food Quality: 5/5
From the moment the first dish arrived at our table, it was evident that Temakinho Bologna takes great pride in the quality of their food. The fusion of Japanese and Brazilian flavors was nothing short of spectacular. Each dish was expertly prepared and presented, with a careful attention to detail that ensured a memorable culinary journey.
The sushi rolls, in particular, were a highlight of the evening. The fresh, high-quality ingredients melded together to create an explosion of flavor in every bite.
Location: 5/5
The restaurant's location only added to the overall experience. Nestled in the bustling city center, Temakinho Bologna is surrounded by beautiful architecture and a lively atmosphere. The venue itself is modern and chic, with tasteful decorations and an inviting ambiance.
Service: 3/5
While the staff at Temakinho Bologna were undeniably friendly and warm, I found that the level of professionalism was not quite up to par with what I would expect from a restaurant of this caliber. The service was somewhat slow and disorganized, which detracted from the overall experience. However, the staff's genuine kindness and eagerness to please did help to make up for these shortcomings.
A few noteworthy points:
Unfortunately, by 9:45 pm, the restaurant had already run out of tequila and tuna tartare. This was a bit disappointing, as these are popular menu items that should be readily available throughout the evening. I hope that this issue will be addressed in the future, as it would significantly enhance the dining experience.
Overall, Temakinho Bologna offers an exceptional dining experience, with top-notch food quality and a fantastic location. Although there is room for improvement in the service department, the unique fusion of Japanese and Brazilian flavors more than compensates for any shortcomings. I would highly recommend Temakinho Bologna to anyone looking for an unforgettable meal in the...
Read moreFood is good, nothing spectacular despite the price but it is pretty unique, at least for Bologna. But if you can’t handle too many reservations, maybe limit them. It is ridiculous having to wait for 40 minutes despite reserving a table. It is ridiculous that everyone in the queue waiting to be seated has booked a reservation and that a guy simply because he cuts ahead and complains gets seated before the others. The transition from waiting in a queue to be told to wait in the middle of the dining hall just makes it worse, I felt bad for those eating nearby with all of us simply standing and waiting so close to them. And I will let you imagine the time it took for the food to arrive if just getting seated took 40 minutes. The staff was nice and helpful, hardly their fault if things are so disorganized. Location is also beautiful, but nothing can compensate the complete lack of organization. I feel like repeating: don’t take so many reservations if you can’t handle them, it just makes the experience for the people...
Read moreThe worst restaurant experience in my entire life
We had a reservation at 9:45 at Temakhino. Once seated, we were given an Italian menu, and no English version was available (there's also no wifi at the place, to help with the translation). No one came to our table for about an hour. The couple next to us even offered us their food out of pity. We resorted to asking the staff for attention, which was very confused and unhelpful. The waitress told us to go search for a tall man which is the only one who can take orders, but no one knew where he was. After we approached another waiter who took our order, we waited for another hour for the food to arrive. In the end the bill also came in with errors, charging us for stuff we didn't order. In conclusion, almost two hours we had to wait for the food, no compensation of any sort (but the bill did contain an extra "service" cost), unhelpful staff and overall very...
