Here you can eat only gluten-free, a paradise for those with celiac disease. Everything is delicious, from the first courses to the desserts, not to mention the appetizers. You can also order first courses and bread to take home.

A true paradise for every celiac. In this inn, immersed in greenery, everything is designed for those who cannot eat gluten; in fact, the entire menu is exclusively gluten-free, with all dishes typical of Romagna cuisine. Very high quality and honest prices. I recommend it to everyone.

This is the third time I've returned to this splendid inn, which proves to be a confirmation. I can now say it's my heart's place❤️ The entire menu is completely gluten-free, but I can assure you that there is no difference. The staff is available and kind. You can enjoy excellent bread, freshly baked. I recommend trying the crostini with porcini mushrooms, and don't miss out on the fried porcini❣️ The handmade gluten-free fresh pasta they make is a must-try❤️ Tagliatelle and curzúl with wild boar ragù that you can see in the photo, but they also make spoja lorda, tortelli, and cappelletti!! You can also buy pasta and bread to take home. 🔝 The grilled meat is really tasty😋 I recommend everyone to stop by among the hills of Dovadola!

Nice informal atmosphere with a spectacular view. Possibility to have lunch outside! The entire menu is gluten-free and homemade. Super appetizers with charcuterie boards and croutons. The bread is the best I have ever tasted! The first courses are also very good! The friendliness and kindness of the staff, especially the waitresses at the tables!

Since it’s worth the trip or a detour. Everything is homemade. The incredible thing is that the entire menu is gluten-free, but you wouldn't notice; there’s no different taste. Just a wave of goodness and kindness. The view and the interior renovation are beautiful.

Delicious place in the Forlì hills. Decorated with care, though simply. Very kind and available staff. Fast and precise service. First courses strictly homemade. The meat is tender as butter. Excellent fried porcini mushrooms. I want to emphasize that everything is gluten-free. The lunch was accompanied by the sweet presence of their kitten Lilli. I must say I enjoyed lunch even more. The chocolate tender cake with cream was excellent. It was a great lunch, without any flaws. As Bruno Barbieri says, the meal is worth the journey! More than honest prices and excellent quality raw materials. Well done, guys! Keep it up! See you soon!

Introduction: - Fake reviews of 1 or 2 stars without reasons or with absurd excuses should all be reported. A place like this, even in the worst case, truly deserves 4 or 5 stars. - We have been coming here regularly since it opened, and despite the COVID period in between, we have NEVER had a problem or a reason for even a partially negative review. Location - The osteria is located in the heart of the first hills of Forlì, not far from the main road, climbing up Monte Paolo, and is surrounded by greenery and nature. - In summer, you can comfortably eat outside, in the fresh air. Ambiance - The building is a typical restored Romagna rustic house. - Both inside and outside, typical features of houses from that era have been preserved, such as exposed beams, a fireplace, etc. - In winter, you eat inside, warmed by the fireplace or wood stove, while in summer, meals are served outside, surrounded by hills. - The osteria doesn’t have many seats, which I see as an advantage, allowing the staff to focus well on food and service, enabling them to fully express their abilities. Food - The entire menu is completely gluten-free, to the immense joy of all intolerant or celiac customers like me, who can thus relax about the risk of contamination. Finding a place 100% gluten-free is truly rare today! - I can assure you that those who came here with me, not knowing the menu was gluten-free, didn’t notice any difference at all. - Everything here is prepared in-house, and you can tell! The quality and deliciousness of the dishes are very high! - The food is completely typical of Romagna, from classic first courses and appetizers to grilled meats, from starters to desserts. Service - The restaurant is family-run, and they have always welcomed and served us with a smile, kindly and with great professionalism. The servers have always made us feel at home, with friendliness and dedication to their work. Well done! - The chef and his wife in the kitchen are simply exceptional. Service is always fast and punctual, even when the place is full. - Here, you can dine and/or lunch mainly on weekends, and it’s advisable to book a bit in advance. Conclusion - In my opinion, one of the best restaurants for typical Romagnolo cuisine in the entire area, and the best regarding gluten-free options. - An osteria truly open to all tastes and palates, regardless of gluten-free. Try it to believe it! - The menu is varied but simple. All the great classics of Romagna cuisine are present, from start to finish. - The fact that everything is homemade is an added value in terms of quality. Even the bread is made in-house! - Prices are absolutely normal when compared to similar places. The entire menu is available online on the website. - Date of last visit, 06/15/2024.

I have been to this restaurant with friends for the second time; the food is very good, indeed excellent, considering that I am celiac and the restaurant is completely gluten-free. Being able to eat in complete peace and safety is priceless, but the quality of the food is excellent and better than many other places—try it to believe it. The staff is very kind, and the service is very fast. Congratulations again, we will see you soon because we really had a great time.

The hospitality of the locals in this beautiful tavern blends with that of the staff who greet you with a smile and friendliness. The cuisine is exquisite, with dishes often better than their gluten-filled counterparts. Light frying, excellent bread, quality meats, genuine pasta. A hilltop tavern price. A bit more ventilation in the dining areas would truly be the cherry on top. Congratulations.

Restaurant with completely gluten-free products, all dishes are excellent. The wine is also great. The environment is super nice and the service is really friendly.

Obviously, you go to a restaurant like this because someone in the group is celiac. Therefore, you expect to eat "different" or at least less "good" food. We had tortelli and tagliatelle that would outperform many "normal" restaurants. Personally, I found the ones with wild boar ragù excellent. The mushroom ones were also great. Delicious bread. The price is in line with a normal restaurant. Five stars seem too few. Congratulations to the waitress for her thorough explanations. There is also the possibility to purchase gluten-free products.

Enchanting place and breathtaking view for those who love nature and the rustic environment. We ate wonderfully in this marvelous place, wild boar tortelli were outstanding!!!!!!! The grilled meat, fried mushrooms, and gratinated tomatoes were excellent, I can't wait to return. Wonderful hospitality, you feel at home. I would define it the gluten-free paradise!!

Beautiful place, feels like being in a mountain cabin, with a fireplace and friendly staff... home-cooked food, good, generous portions... prices are maybe a bit high, but being gluten-free, it's understandable, in any case... it's worth a visit!

We are two 26-year-old guys, we came from the sea to try this place we found "by chance", we couldn't have made a better choice!!! 10 out of 10 to the owners, the place, and especially the food, all gluten-free!! A happy oasis. We will return soon. Highly recommended! Good luck and safe travels, guys!!

My heartfelt compliments for a culinary experience beyond expectations. The best gluten-free I have ever tried. P.S.: aphrodisiac curzúl!!!

I am Alessia and I am 9 years old. I gave five stars, but only because I couldn’t give more! Everything is delicious, and for me, being celiac, this place is like a paradise. The owners are very kind, helpful, and quick to serve. I hope to come back soon!!!

A very beautiful and panoramic place on the first hills of Dovadola! The few outdoor seats create a warm and family-like welcome that guarantees attentive service. The menu is entirely gluten-free but it is hard to tell without knowing it. The quality of the raw materials is extremely satisfying. Very tender and flavorful meat (all herbs are grown by the owners). A paradise for celiacs but not only. A place to definitely return to!!!
5
A special restaurant, carefully decorated, and the chef is fantastic! I only found out at the end of the meal that everything we ate was gluten-free, but honestly, you can't tell the difference. Tortelli and tagliatelle with a fantastic ragù. The grilled second courses deserve a 10 and praise. The owners are friendly and very kind. Thank you for everything, I'll happily come back!!! I highly recommend it to everyone!!!
