Trattoria Pizzeria Belle Arti — Restaurant in Bologna

Yes they are open in August!! In fact every day except December 24 and 25. Their Pizza is top shelf. And try some of their Calabrese specials if you can handle the spice. —- see below for prior comments

today I took a little walking tour of Bologna and as I was walking I found this restaurant. After looking through the three pages of pizza options I settled on a 4 cheese pizza. I saw that one of the dough options was a black charcoal. As it turns out there is a dough that includes a vegetable based charcoal which supposedly reduces the amount of bloating and gas that you may have after eating pizza. I didn’t even know such a thing existed but much to my delight it tasted like a regular crust except it was slightly darker. and I’m happy to report that, I actually feel comfortable and I’m not experiencing any bloating. Who knew? so this place was really quite nice and it’s owned by a family that comes from my hometown, Calabria. I’m looking forward to going back the next time someone comes to visit me from New York and taking them to this family style restaurant with great service and wonderful food. I had to take 40% of the pie home because of course I couldn’t finish the whole thing in one sitting. Yes I know I’m a lightweight but that means that I get to enjoy it with my morning coffee. I topped off the meal with a delicious coffee. I don’t know how they do it but when I make coffee at home it hardly ever taste as good as when I get it at a restaurant or bar. I guess I just don’t have the magic touch. I had a lovely conversation with the owner and the weight staff and I’m looking forward to returning and tasting some of their specialty...

Students are usually not picky about restaurants, we strongly do not recommend this one. Even if the presentation seems good and attractive, some issues cannot be neglected.

Firstly, the waiters adopted an inappropriate attitude towards women indicating them wrong toilets and staring at them.

Then, we ordered a dessert. In a tiramisu served, we found a cockroach that was still living in the tiramisu (not on the surface but inside). This perfectly shows the hygiene from this place. We complained to the chefs and they told us that it was not their fault but rather due to a bad isolation of the place. They started to adopt a contemptuous behavior while explaining that the cockroach flew on the dessert and made its way in the tiramisu that is supposed to be behind a window to be conserved. And all this without mentioning that the restaurant did not apologize a single time but rather adopted an offensive behavior to defend themselves.

This place has serious issues of behavior and hygiene and we strongly do not...
