There were six of us there on Saturday. Its very nice to sit in the restaurant, great atmosphere, you feel like youre on vacation. One person was very happy with sea bream, I didnt see bruschetta on the menu so I ordered a large salad. The sauce that came with it was from the bottle I bought, where balsamic vinegar is always skimped on and there is too much olive oil in it. I cant remember the other food anymore. But the tiramisu was very tasty! I wasnt really lucky with the wine, so you might have to order a bottle and choose the right grape variety and dry. This restaurant is prominently located on Steubenplatz, opposite the Vienna Coffee House, right next to the U2 Neu-Westend stop. We had a lovely evening there and will be back at the next opportunity!

Unfortunately, several things went wrong with the service. We were there with a larger group. Several people had ordered steak and, because it was too bloody, had it returned and asked for it to be cooked through. When it was served again, it was still dark red - and so was everyone who made this request. We also ordered several things that simply werent delivered. And last but not least, it should be mentioned that the waiter insulted the children in our group. Unfortunately, the quality of the rest of the food did not compensate for the service. The pizza and the other dishes were just average.

Unfortunately the food wasnt that great. Hardly any spices and no fresh herbs. (It doesnt cost much but it makes it taste better.) Food is very expensive. You cant even recommend the pizza.

June 23, 2024

The service, if you can even call it that, was beyond criticism. With a grumble, drinks and food were thrown onto the table. Music boxes were set up right next to us, through which we were treated to unbearable music/volume. The whole thing almost bordered on torture. I can really recommend everyone to give this restaurant a wide berth!

Always on the lookout for new locations, I recently ended up in this restaurant! Unfortunately it was during football season, so it was not only full of tourists that evening, but also unfortunately very loud! But since we were hungry, we stayed anyway and ordered pizza and steak as well as drinks! Unfortunately, the pizza was completely limp and was served with the comment that it didnt turn out that way, but that we would make up for it later. Unfortunately, this announcement remained, but we had been waiting for it the whole time! But the steak was good, only the side dishes were very poor and very limited (half a potato). You could have made up for the messed up pizza here if you wanted to! Therefore, the bottom line is unfortunately only 3 stars in the overall rating!

June 23, 2024

Burnt Carbonara, drink only water, beer and juices to the max! As a Pole, I didnt feel good!

Congratulations on the successful renovation and reopening! This is where modernity and tradition meet. The atmosphere is inviting and the owners and staff are warm, professional and extremely accommodating. The menu offered a wide selection of delicacies and was complemented by a daily menu (with an impressive selection of fresh fish). All dishes ordered were very fresh and tasty. The selection of drinks leaves nothing to be desired. Overall, a fantastic experience that I can recommend to anyone looking for an authentic Italian restaurant with a harmonious atmosphere and very good cuisine. Grazie mille for a wonderful evening!

Newly taken over and redesigned from the inside, which was very tasteful by the way, we were unfortunately very disappointed with our first visit today. The menu is standard, nothing outstanding, no aha, nothing new, the price is Westend. The service makes an effort, but oversteps the mark, with an upscale atmosphere, overly casual sayings and intrusiveness towards guests you dont actually know yet. The antipasti are spread carelessly on the plate, the spaghetti is excellently cooked, but tastes boring. Unfortunately, the pizza is also tasteless, you can neither speak of a crispy pizza dough nor of a soft, pleasant dough, it just seems to be nothing in terms of taste. Salmon and tuna tartare on the extra menu, the only thing that is both special and very tasty good! There were no anchovies to further add to the pizza! In any case, we wont be coming back!

From now on I know where I will often stay when I stay overnight in Berlins Westend. Here you are very welcome as a guest and are greeted in a friendly manner and also get a very tasty meal! I felt very comfortable there with my colleague. Above all, the ambience of the restaurant gives you a homely feeling. The Antipasti della Casa was a delight and the Pizza Diablo with a bottle of extra spicy was to die for. My farewell with the words: We ll see each other again! was not a threat, but a well-intentioned announcement. So until next time! Kind regards, Andreas

Ive rarely seen anything so beautiful in an Italian restaurant. Super friendly service, great food, very nice facilities.

03/12/2023 the restaurant has a canteen character and the menu is pompous. What is recommended and was delicious is the wine. There is no relationship between price and performance. My spaghetti came as a dish that used to be prepared at the table in a cheese wheel, you could look for truffles and they were dried out. The truffle flavor was complemented by truffle oil. Too bad. I cannot recommend the restaurant. A big disappointment Parking: If youre unlucky, you have to run far

December 23, 2023

Just as ! must be Italian cuisine Its not easy to eat really good Italian food in Berlin-Westend. As we all know, you can argue about taste, but not about quality. My wife wanted to share ravioli in sage sauce and I had already mentally resigned myself to the cream abuse that is common elsewhere. But then: surprise. The fantastic ravioli came in a fresh sage butter with a perfect hint of lemon and of course super fresh (and real) parmesan. After battling for the last ravioli (my wife always wins), we shared Saltimbocca alla Romana - again with sage because it was so delicious. The tenderly fried veal schnitzel in Parma ham also exceeded all expectations. We shared a total of two great main courses and left ourselves full. Next time, however, appetizers are also due, The perfectly tempered bottle of Vernaccia di San Giminano was worth every cent and at 29 it s also pretty inexpensive. Very pleasant: You can also order it by the glass if you end up realizing that the bottle was a bit too small :-) We are pleased to have found a new regular restaurant near us. A la prossima volta!

There are points deducted for us. But these only relate to service, at least friendliness. This was only given for the first few minutes. It was clearly noticeable that they were overwhelmed. We ate there before a concert and the restaurant was full. This didnt even bother us. The end was a disappointment for us. I was supposed to pay for other guests who were sitting at our table and then the card reader stopped working. In this regard, we were held responsible. And something like that doesnt work at all. The food was delicious. So, you can spend a nice evening there, but you shouldnt do this when there are events in the Olympic Stadium.

December 23, 2023

I was in this restaurant and ordered a pizza. The pizza looked strange and square and didnt taste good at all. When I paid I asked the waitress about it and she said it wasnt a pizza but a pinsa. But she didnt mention it when I ordered the pizza. I am very disappointed and will never go there again. The staff is very unfriendly and everything is very expensive with poor quality.

Unfortunately I have to revise the first rating because unfortunately the quality didnt last. Today we ate fish soup, fish soup and squid cooked to death and unfortunately the soup was not fish stock, extremely bland. Unfortunately, this continued with the fish dishes Loup de mar and creation of the noble fish. Its a shame that fish is not recommended as there is no cooking knowledge and it was too expensive. Good, somewhat upscale Italian restaurant with very tasty food. The pasta aldente with a very good seasoned sauce, the starters were very good and other dishes that we have already eaten there are also delicious. The service is nice and the price is reasonable. In summer you can sit outside very nicely.

December 23, 2022

First time there since the change of operator. I didnt like it there before. Somehow its still not completely round. The food was good and corresponded to the slightly higher price level. The interior design with the usual red/white ceilings lags behind. As we all know, Italians in particular can design, even when it comes to interior design ;) But perhaps they are also oriented towards the predominantly older regular customers in the Westend. Luckily the weather was nice and you could sit outside. As a guest without a reservation, I had the impression that I was a bit of a nuisance. I wasnt told about the board with the daily menu, and the standard menu was quickly handed to me. A minute later bread and olives and my first course arrived. This was anything but a relaxing meal after a strenuous day when you wanted to treat yourself to something good. But the Vitello Tonato was great and very attractively presented. The tagliatelle alla Bolognese were impeccable, to the point, tasty and seasoned. The Nero dAvola house wine was absolutely fine, but you had to ask about the grape variety first because the house wines are only on the wine list. Really unusual. By expanding the wine list, you probably hope that guests will choose something more expensive than the house wines. In any case, it was the second time that I was offered the wine list. Payment of the final sum of 33.50 euros + tip by credit card was then refused because it was only accepted from 100 (!) euros. Apparently there is some optimization going on here too, but its really out of date, especially since its not pointed out anywhere. Then you should be honest and explain that you dont want credit cards at all, then the customer can decide whether to accept it or not. Conclusion: the kitchen can do it, the service could perhaps be even better, the concept doesnt seem very customer-oriented, its a bit of a shame that there is still a feeling of being handled over. Because of the kitchen, there may be a second attempt, as long as you dont have to sit in the interior, which simply doesnt reflect the elegance of the food.

I had a beef carpaccio, one assumes that it is made from beef fillet, as it should be. Its only a few grams for a lot of money. Unfortunately, this is also a rip-off, no beef fillet as you can see in the photos, because there are no fillets that big. Prosecco on ice, was not understood despite the explanation, a champagne glass came with 1 ice cube, I wanted a wine glass with lots of ice and Prosecco. The arrogant, bored waiter said it was Valdo, I cant confirm that either. Completely different in taste. I live around the corner, but Id rather walk 500 meters further and know what Im getting. I cant go here anymore, its a shame.

I was rarely in a restaurant that I liked so much visually and the waiters were so nice that it should have been 5 stars. However, I wasnt entirely convinced by the pizza, I liked that it was square and not round as usual, but I wasnt entirely convinced by the salami. The dessert (tiramisu) was really one of the best things Ive eaten so far. So if you want to eat here before or after a Hertha game, I can only recommend it.

Very bad service, price-performance ratio is not right at all. All entrecotes were ordered medium and arrived raw! When the meat was replaced, the same piece that we had before came back. This means the cream sauce that was on the meat was scraped off and put back on. We at least expected to be served a new piece of meat. Ive never experienced anything like this before. Ill never eat there again and I wouldnt recommend it to anyone. There was also no question about a corona test or vaccination certificate.

Was pleasantly surprised. Better than years ago. Owner changed.

The service is actually quite good outside of the holiday season, but thats to be expected given the price range. The mustard sauce for the pork fillet was inferior, I would say Bautzner mustard. Apparently no one in the kitchen knows what it means to serve a steak medium rare. The meat was raw, but the side dishes were very tasty. The practicing waiters are not trained professionals. Basic behavior typical of the job is ignored; here the customer is not the king but the customer. The dessert is without question a wholesale product, chocolate souffle from the wholesale market with industrial ice cream for just under 10 is also a brand in itself. The restaurant survives because of the location, not the food.

Very good food and nice atmosphere. The portions are not huge but absolutely sufficient. The whole meal was absolutely great... meat grilled to perfection and super tasty. The panna cotta is rarely found in such quality and the nougat parfait is a dream.

Very nice Italian restaurant. You can sit inside and outside and although it is on the street, you can sit relatively quietly protected by planted pots. Good Italian cuisine, a bit expensive. The staff is very friendly and nice

If we didnt have Caterina and her Il Cardinale... a sad world. In Corinnas times, of course we cook ourselves. But - of course - we cant come close. Hopefully everything will get better again very soon. Until then, well order online. But that doesnt replace a visit. All the best and see you soon!

So Im sitting here right now and Im absolutely speechless about the new guacamole bruscetta for 5.80. Im basically a simple log cabin bread for 0.90 cents spread with a little guacamole and cut in half. Add about a diced tomato on top. Thats it?? The waitress says yes, thats right Clear veto... Total rip off! Please either price fairly or increase to at least 3 WHOLE loaves. The rest was good as usual.

Friendly staff. The pizza, however, was terrible, even in the pizza league north of the Alps. Exceptionally oily, practically bathed in oil and very salty. Like frozen and thawed in the deep fryer. The dough: also strange, as if it were without yeast. And soaked in oil. If you want to eat pizza, its better to go somewhere else or get a frozen pizza from Rewe opposite. We only offer pizza because we are close to the Olympic Stadium for football, the owner writes here as a justification for the criticism of his pizza from another visitor. Hmm, according to this logic the beer could be stale. Its not a pub and the Olympic Stadium is nearby. In fact, everything on the menu has to be good or it wont be offered.

We had dinner here again today with friends before the lockdown. We chose this restaurant based on a recommendation. 6 people from three households ordered a variety of dishes and everything was delicious. We were treated very nicely and friendly. We were very impressed with the service. Corona rules implemented very well. The restaurant is offering delivery and pickup during lockdown. We will definitely use this and would be happy to be your guests again in person after the lockdown. Thank you again for a lovely evening.

We were invited to dinner again for the first time. Service apparently overwhelmed. Stupid answers like E.g. Starters are now being ordered, wait... Im not used to that. Pizza is huge, no indication that there are also smaller ones for seniors. Well, a lot of things were unpleasant, I wont be visiting this restaurant again.

It is a very, very bad restaurant that does not live up to expectations in the slightest because, for example, the shrimp pasta no longer had whole shrimp in it like it used to, but only very small pieces of a maximum of two to two shrimp. We ordered three portions and they were very small portions for a price of around 16.50. Thats a very expensive price for such a result, which wasnt tasty either. For such a price you can get a dish in a good restaurant that meets expectations and is of high quality. Normally I would have complained straight away, but since it was a birthday dinner I didnt. In addition, the dessert we ordered (various things), which was promised as homemade, was not homemade but bought. Thats why Ill never go there again!
