Rimini’s cuisine reflects the flavors of the Emilia-Romagna and Adriatic coast, offering a delicious mix of fresh seafood, handmade pasta, and local specialties.

You’ll find it sold everywhere from small kiosks to upscale restaurants.

Seafood lovers will enjoy **brodetto alla riminese**, a rich Adriatic fish stew made with tomatoes, garlic, and herbs. Another coastal favorite is **grigliata di pesce**, a mixed grill of fresh fish, calamari, and shrimp, simply prepared to highlight the flavors of the sea.

Pasta dishes are a highlight, with **strozzapreti** and **tagliatelle al ragù** (similar to Bolognese sauce) showcasing the area’s love for hearty, handmade pasta. Rimini is also famous for **cappelletti in brodo**, small pasta dumplings filled with meat or cheese and served in a savory broth, especially popular in cooler months.

To end your meal, indulge in **ciambella romagnola**, a ring-shaped cake often served with a glass of local dessert wine. Whether you’re enjoying a casual beachside meal or a traditional restaurant, Rimini’s cuisine offers a taste of Italian authenticity with a coastal twist.
