Marianaza
Marianaza Review
A large open-hearth fireplace dominates this simple trattoria, and wonderful aromas of grilled meats and garlic greet you as you walk in. Marianaza, like the town of Faenza itself, successfully blends the best of Emilian-Romagnan and Tuscan cuisine: the extraordinary primi are mostly tortellini-based, and the secondi rely heavily on the grill. Grilled garlic toasts topped with prosciutto crudo delightfully whet the appetite; and the tortellini in brodo is tasty. The mixed grill is perfect for sharing. (Note that the person responsible for the grilling is a woman: a true rarity in Italy.)
