Bottega Aleotti

About

Bottega Aleotti is a family‑run trattoria nestled in the picturesque town of Crevalcore, in the heart of Emilia‑Romagna. Founded in 2008 by chef Demis Aleotti, the restaurant embraces the traditional role of the “oste”, greeting guests with a warm welcome, freshly baked bread and an intimate, home‑style atmosphere. The menu is thoughtfully divided into three sections—traditional, fish and tasting—which showcase both classic Bolognese preparations and contemporary twists. Signature dishes include tagliatelle al ragù, tortellini in brodo di gallina, and a decadent risotto enriched with Roquefort and caramel‑scented pears. The kitchen’s dedication to regional ingredients is evident in every plate. Handmade pasta silhouettes, homemade bread in thick stone‑ground loaves, and an assortment of dessert pastries—ranging from chocolate pasticcioni, to biscotti “pasticceria artigianale” and the signature "Colomba"—provide a sweet finale to the meal. The restaurant also offers a selection of local wines, carefully chosen to complement the robust flavors of the dishes. Bottega Aleotti welcomes guests from Tuesday to Saturday, opening its doors in the afternoon and closing on Sunday evenings and all Monday. While a reservation is recommended—particularly during peak seasons—the site’s online booking form makes it easy to secure a table. Whether you’re looking for a relaxed lunch or a leisurely dinner, Bottega Aleotti delivers a genuine slice of Emilian hospitality, expert craftsmanship and a charming, rustic ambience that feels like a home away from home.
