Restaurant & Bar

The history of Ristorante Baia del Re has deep, fascinating roots, taking us back to the mid-1920s when "Osteria Nuova", originally a horse-changing post, was established in Modena; in 1928, it became "Baia del Re."


The establishment soon gained renown, thanks above all to the exquisite, authentic Emilian cuisine served at its tables and the welcoming, family-like atmosphere within its walls, eventually becoming a must-visit stop for anyone passing near Modena, whether for business or leisure.

Authentic home-style cooking

The excellent Modenese cuisine remains unchanged, with everything strictly homemade, from tortellini and fresh pasta to the boiled meat trolley, a true signature specialty. The à la carte menu reflects the seasons and the quality of the ingredients, complemented by an excellent selection of regional and national wines.

    “I stayed at the hotel (my first time) and was truly impressed by the cleanliness of the rooms and the service. Naturally, I couldn't pass up the chance to have lunch at the restaurant, where the quality of traditional dishes really shines. The boiled meat trolley was exceptional, and—of course—it had to be accompanied by a good Lambrusco. It is a place I highly recommend.” – Aldo, Google
