A bit old-fashioned, but the food is excellent. Much of the selection is brought on carts (appetizers, cheese, roasts, etc). The filet with balsamic vinegar literally melts in your mouth. It's expensive, but not outrageously so, and you definitely get your money's worth

This family run restaurant is warm and welcoming and we enjoyed a very nice dinner in a charming old world setting. For the primi one of us had the brodo con pasta nel sacchetto which was ecellent and three of us had tagliatelle verdi al prosciutto di Parma. The pasta was underdone and one of our friends had clumps of... More

I went the first time to Arnalso more than 20 years ago. I came back a few times, always after several years. It was almost 10 years I missed the place, so I was courious to check if the old quality was still there. Overall I can certainly say the level is still very good. We had a Mixed salami... More

I really don't understand the (very few) critics: you come here for the great classic Emilian cuisine and this is what you get, nothing less, nothing more. Prices could be a notch lower and waiters are not the friendliest in the universe, but you won't find any compromise here when it comes to absolute top quality of ingredients and sticking... More

We have eaten here on numerous occassions and always had a wonderful experience. My wife is Italian and she introduced me to the restaurant to show off the best traditional food from the area and it does just that. This restaurant serves the traditional dishes at top quality. No messing with foams or glazes just well executed good quality food.... More

Arnaldo is an institution in Emilian cuisine since Arnaldo, the founder, served "spugnolata" and played guitar in the 70s. Now it is run by Arnaldo's 2 daughters and their families, with passion and class. The food is typical from Emilia region: cappelletti in brodo and legendary "spugnolata" are the "must" pasta dishes, then you can go on with the "boiled"... More

I am convinced that such high value cannot be given away. It is worth to position this food and wine experience in the high-quality restaurants segment and have guests pay for that. I enjoyed immensly, by all means. Tetra-Pak management, many years ago, decided to establish here their Italian plant due to the friendship with Mr. Arnaldo and the enjoyment... More

We liked a lot the food and the portions although the price is a little bit above the market. You can find excellent pasta with marvelous sauces.
