La Bussola - Herzogenaurach

We had been to this small Itaiian restaurant for lunch upon hearing about it from a local friend. since the place is in the middle of nowhere amidst farms and a private airfield, we were not even sure if it was open for business. We were surprised to see quite a lunch time crowd inside when we opened the door. Staff were very friendly and courteous, we were seated very close to the window so we could see the planes take off! they had a good selection of wines, we tried their house red wine which was really good. we ordered 3 pasta dishes which were all very good, the portion sizes were quite generous to our surprise! especially enjoyed their linguine with aglio olio! Overall its a must visit place if you are in Herzo next time!

The restaurant is located in the aeroclub of Herzo, a bit distant from city center, but very conveniently opened on Sundays. Food is great and also good value for the money.

Excellent italian food, varied menu with seasonal ingredients. Family friendly and a nice view to the small planes of the airport.

Some locals took me here for lunch - I wouldn't even have known there was a restaurant here by the airport. By now I would have had tried a few Italian restaurants already so I wasn't necessary here to expect some amazing meal. The meal itself was nice. I had the lasagna while the others had the seafood linguine. The best part of it was the nice big portions compared to other restaurants on our trip. The seafood linguine had lots of mussels compared to similar dishes here in North America. I wish I had ordered that myself. Definitely a place to try if you're in the area.

Always a fun spot with reasonable and good food. Always make a point of stopping here. Interesting environment and cash only.
