The Top 74 Places to Eat Near Lazaroun

The estate at Saiano raises the animals and works the land; what ends up on the table at this celebrated Romagna trattoria started there. The kitchen has been turning out green lasagna, piadina, and slow-braised country dishes for decades, with a chef who's become something of a local legend. The setting, inside a medieval village, leans theatrical in winter when the old theater rooms open up and the whole thing feels slightly unreal.

A glass-walled veranda dining room looks out over the Romagna hills toward San Marino, which is the kind of view that makes you feel the tasting menu is going better than it is. This is two-Michelin-starred fine dining, and chef Alberto Faccani builds menus that move between Emilian memory and quietly restless invention, with pairings that arrive somewhere you didn't expect but can't argue with. Service is gracious without being ceremonial, and the sommelier clearly means it.

A Michelin-starred creative restaurant in Rimini's city centre where Argentine roots and a globe-trotting sensibility meet Italian tradition. The chef and his partner run a quietly personal room that feels more like a well-appointed private home than a destination dining spot. Tasting menus lean toward fish or meat, but guests can build their own path through any dish on offer. Book the terrace early if summer is your plan.

Checked cotton tablecloths and bottles lined up on the shelves set the tone at this old-school osteria in Borgo San Giuliano, the painted fishermen's quarter that Fellini grew up loving. The kitchen stays deep in Romagna tradition: house-cured meats, fresh pasta, and Mora Romagnola pork cooked several ways. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, which tracks with the crowd of locals who seem entirely unsurprised to be eating this well.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

A Michelin-starred dining room inside a grand villa on the Adriatic coast, where the kitchen leans heavily on the catch and keeps the plates looking like someone put real thought into the geometry. The chef behind the stoves trained in serious kitchens, and the fish-forward contemporary menu shows it. Save room for the babà, a signature so light it barely seems to exist, which is the point.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

The terrace sits right over the canal, close enough that you could theoretically dip a hand in, which is either charming or alarming depending on your relationship with water. This Michelin-starred seafood restaurant in Cesenatico focuses almost entirely on fish, from unfussy raw starters to more composed plates where pickled fruit and citrus show up alongside the catch. The wine list leans heavily into Champagne, which nobody seems to mind.

A glass-enclosed veranda on Cesenatico's main avenue, busy with summer promenaders just outside the windows, while inside the focus stays firmly on the Adriatic. This is a seafood restaurant in the straightforward sense: raw catches, gratins, pasta, risotto, grilled and baked fish, the daily specials announced aloud at the table. Alberto Faccani, the name behind Magnolia, oversees the kitchen, keeping things rooted in local maritime tradition rather than reaching for the clever.

A roadside trattoria in the hills above Novafeltria, where the Apennines split Romagna from the Marche and the pasta is rolled by hand every morning. The kitchen follows the seasons and leans hard on local meat and whatever porcini the hills have given up lately.

Exactly the kind of neighborhood pizzeria that doesn't need to announce itself.

The drive up to Acquapartita, a mountain village at nearly 800 meters, is the first clue that this Michelin-starred restaurant takes commitment.

The Adriatic appears and disappears through the trees as you wind along the coastal road into Pesaro, then settles into a full backdrop behind the outdoor terrace.

A Michelin-starred restaurant in a small hill town in Romagna, where the kitchen leans hard on the grill: lamb, eel, and pigeon pick up smoke and char before anything fancier happens to them. The chef builds from local tradition, foraged mushrooms, game, and Mora Romagnolo suckling pig, then quietly pivots toward the unexpected. The kind of creative tasting-menu destination that gives you a reason to drive somewhere you'd otherwise only pass through.

Outdoor tables beside a village church, trees overhead, hills in the distance: the setting alone makes a case for driving out to this trattoria in a hamlet outside Galeata. The kitchen leans on regional cooking where Romagna, Marche, and Tuscany quietly overlap, so the menu drifts between traditions in ways that feel earned rather than confused. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, with a small shop selling house-made provisions on the way out.

Wooden panels and nautical fittings put you somewhere between a vintage fishing boat and a proper Italian seafood restaurant, which is exactly the spirit of L'Acciuga. The kitchen works from fresh catch and interprets it through a Romagnolo lens, with the anchovy spaghetti a good argument for staying put through dessert. The bar counter adds cocktails and kombucha to an otherwise serious wine list, because why not.

Books and wine bottles share the walls with old photos at this intimate bistro tucked into a quiet corner of Ravenna's historic centre. Tables are small and close together, the lighting is low, and the whole thing has an almost Parisian feel that feels slightly unlikely this deep into Emilia-Romagna.

The art nouveau interior puts "trattoria" in embarrassing air quotes the moment you walk in.

A pizza shop set along Faenza's old city walls, with a following that stretches across Emilia Romagna and into Milan and Bologna.

A pizzeria in Emilia Romagna built around a social mission, where young people with disabilities and survivors of bullying make up the team, and where the pizza itself is the thing that keeps people coming back. The crust runs high and crisps nicely, and the panuozzo from Romagna and the pinsa round out a menu that takes the food as seriously as the cause. The staff greets you like they mean it.

Tucked into the forests of Casentino, this contemporary dining room opens onto the trees through floor-to-ceiling French doors, so lunch arrives with a side of absolute silence. The kitchen leans into its surroundings, building tasting menus from the kind of ingredients a city restaurant would call a sourcing story and a local one just calls Tuesday. The crowd runs to couples who drove a while to get here and don't mind at all.

A road separates Burro & Alici from the beach, and in summer the windows fold open so the dining room becomes the seafront. It looks like every other casual fish restaurant along the Marotta waterfront, which is the sort of camouflage that earns a Michelin Bib Gourmand. Classic Adriatic cooking carries the menu, with the occasional personal twist, and the gourmet pizzas topped with seafood are the kind of thing you didn't expect to order and then do.

The dough splits the difference between Neapolitan softness and Tuscan crispiness, which is either a compromise or a good idea depending on your loyalties. Gli Allocchi is a pizza spot in the hill town of Marradi, with a rustic room and a menu that leans into the surrounding countryside, including a pie built around Marrone del Mugello chestnuts when the season allows. The fried starters and desserts get equal attention from the kitchen.

Three tables face the kitchen directly, with a wood fire burning behind the pass, and those are the ones to ask for. This is a contemporary Italian restaurant in the Emilia-Romagna hills, run by a young chef who trained in starred kitchens before coming home to do things his own way.

A cocktail bar and pizzeria in Senigallia where the drinks program is treated as seriously as the dough, which comes in three styles plus a gluten-free option. The pizza chef works with heritage grains like Ottofile corn and monococcum spelt, and the fried starters get the same careful attention. It's the kind of place where the bartender and the pizza chef are genuinely in conversation, rather than operating in separate universes on the same menu.
