We weren’t sure because it had changed owners, but we were delighted to have another wonderful experience here. The food was delicious. The staff was attentive. And it made for a glorious night . This is a place to visit over & over. And Sophia is very helpful on helping you make suggestions. We will recommend this to all our Florida friends. !!

The couple that bought the place have failed, as I expected.

I wanted to rate this last night but thought I should sleep on it. I must warn people that this is not a place for the everyday person. This was my third visit. The first two times were with friends and we had great service. I wanted to take my mother who has cancer and is a light eater. We shared an appetizer and both had entrees. The food was 5* but service 1*. We did not finish our entrees and our waiter packed our food and slapped desert menus on our table – I said we were full and he said to look at it. 15 minutes later he came back and I requested our bill. The place only had a handful of customers because it’s off season. The owners were there and had to see the situation. The bill was $80 and with tip $100. I will never recommend this place again!!

Six of us enjoyed a fabulous dining experience last night at the Balonga Cafe. All of us have traveled and dined at numerous fine restaurants. Each of us had different entrees and we all agreed that this restaurant is one of the best. The food, the service and the attention given to the all the details that make a dining experience special were all apparent. Luca, Dillon and Francesco…great work. Thank you! Vince and friends.

For me, the Bologna Cafe is a place to go for a special night. I couldn’t afford it very often, but for the infrequent special event, its perfect. They consistently have friendly helpful service, fresh delicious and authentic Italian food and a warm, welcoming environment. My wife and I celebrated my birthday here this year and it was amazing. I’m looking forward to the next opportunity to eat there again.

My husband took me here for a surprise anniversary dinner. It was romantic and unhurried like I pictured it would be in Italy. The food was excellent and our waiter Dylan was wonderful. I will never forget this special gift.

Bologna is back to the quality restaurant it was when it started. Quality stumbled the last couple of years when owner founders Claudio and Barbara sold the Place. Well they are back with the old staff and chef’s and the result is the wonderful food, service, and personal attention of the owners are there once again.

Stopped in to check out the deli and the freshly made mozzarella cheese (which I was able to sample first) Delicious! Was amazed by the selection of authentic Italian meats and cheeses as well as the authentic recipes on the dining menu. The espresso and apple cake we ordered was the best we’ve had since moving to the Gulf Coast. Can’t wait til we can stop back for lunch or dinner. Claudio and his wife Barbara are gracious hosts and know how to treat a customer well…

Excellent quality authentic Italian food. Great couple owners show their true passion for life. A little on the high side of financial scale but exceptional experience. Enjoyed ambiance as well.
