The story
Tucked away within the serene Giardini Margherita, Vetro is a hidden vegetarian gem that proves plant-based dining can hold its own in Italy’s culinary heartland. The restaurant emphasizes an organic, plastic-free philosophy that appeals to all palates; as creator Qui si Taffia noted during their 24-hour tour of Bologna, the food is "surprisingly good even for a meat-lover."
The menu offers thoughtful, well-executed fare that punches well above its low-profile status. Visitors should look for the Gnocchetto al Limone and the Maritozzo con Funghi Fritti, both of which earned enthusiastic approval. Rounding out the experience are the Hummus di Ceci e Carciofini Freschi and the Falafel con Salsa allo Yogurt. Whether you are a local or just passing through, Vetro provides an ideal, peaceful escape for anyone looking to elevate their vegetarian itinerary in Bologna.

Dishes mentioned
Gnocchetto al Limone
The gnocchetto with lemon was very good — light and fresh.
Maritozzo con Funghi Fritti
This maritozzo with fried mushrooms is something illegal — I've never had a savory maritozzo before, and the fresh mushroom really comes through. I want to scream, it's so good.
Hummus di Ceci e Carciofini Freschi
The chickpea hummus with fresh artichokes was nice — I can say it's good.
Falafel con Salsa allo Yogurt
The falafel was really good — a lot of substance. And the yogurt sauce is frothy, very nice.
