In Reggio we have always looked for a place that gave the opportunity to eat the typical local delicacies. With Populista we found them. Cozy and colorful place, the friendly waiter is friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We got all the choices on the fried gnocco and two chizzas one green pesto and one gnocco. The light, dry and very tasty fried food is delicious. Excellent cold cuts. The only flaw is that they all went out together and got cold. Sin. The wine is a very good prosecco. Excellent price quality.

We went for dinner to celebrate my sister's birthday, the waiter was very nice and courteous, with excellent control of the entire room; very fast service and very good food.First and second courses with limited quantities so that you can taste more dishes. Abundant quantities however, regarding the tigelloni, the Vergo especially excellent (which I tasted).The only dish that didn't fully satisfy me was the peasant chizza with radicchio, gorgonzola and mushroom cream.Furthermore, to end the dinner in style, the waiter, seeing that my sister was unwrapping presents, brought us a cup of mascarpone and chocolate with a candle, truly magnificent!Compliments again to the waiter and excellent high quality food.I fully recommend!

My son at the stadium and I walk around the center with my wife. We found this place because we wanted to eat fried gnocco and tigelle. Very kind staff and the fried gnocco was super. Then, to make sure we didn't miss anything, we took the tigelle with Nutella...I recommend going and trying this place. Well done.

Beautiful venue a stone's throw from the cathedral.The staff were very kind and available to the customer's requests. Had lunch at 1.45pm.Excellent service, for a nice table, where everyone took what they wanted.The dishes are also very good, from cappelletti in broth, to fried gnocco, tigelle, and platters. The weed is also well done.Excellent value for money. Also recommended for tourists, who are treated well.

The raw ham and parmesan cream tigelle are delicious. I tasted a balanced and well-made gin and tonic. Very pleasant environment and impeccable service. The homemade tiramisu was really good. A place I would happily return to for evenings with friends.

A nice discovery in the center of Reggio Emilia, we had dinner with a populist platter, wild boar with polenta, roast potatoes, gnocco with bacon and pecorino and finally an excellent mascarpone cream with chocolate cake. All really delicious. The place is very nice and the staff is very friendly with the customer. We will definitely return to try other dishes
