An English review in germany. this restaurant is flat from ingenious. best italian that I had. service and eat not to miss

Absolutely perfect. I was there for business and re rewarded my youngest trip to Italy. eating was fresh and very authentic, the prices were ok I mean. I had grilled oktopus and fantasia nettuna, which were some grilled meeresbass, garnel and skalops. as I sad, it tasted like I was in italy.

Really Italian restaurant at very good prices Really Italian restaurant Very good restaurant good food and nice place All the staff I meet there speak Italian at the lunch they serve some different kind of pasta and you can have a very quick and good...lunch choosing from the daily menu or a la carte The pasta is very good and Italian cooked the only difference is the coffee to long for Italian people but the can make in Italian style if you ask to the “boss” a really Italian coffee. what a pity for The location is good for quickly lunch but the industrial zone of Landau is not the place where invite someone for dinner

“Who stops being better, stops being good” stands as a introductory phrase on the first page of the menu. A credo to which you wrote in the “Piccola Italia” seems to be all with your body and soul. It fits like no other to the spatial and culinary development of this Ristorante on the outskirts of Landauer. What started in the middle of the 1980s in the heart of Landau is now one of the “Italo institutions” in the “Am Messegrund” trade park. The recipe for success also then: delicious pasta, Italian friendliness and an absolutely fair value for money. In the old, centrally located "Piccola", the rooms were still somewhat restricted. But even then, the noodle variations to the lunch table were absolutely good. For several years, the two managing directors Giuseppe Baorda (Servicemanagement and Leonardo Moschetta) have established themselves in Landauer Lise Meitner Straße with their idea of a “cultural welfare soase of the Italian embossment” and have also developed conceptually. With connected party service, urban chic guest rooms, a paralyzed summer terrace, flashing and well-launched service staff and an even very successful pasta kitchen, the characters here are clearly successful. This is particularly noticeable in the evening. Without reservation, it becomes difficult to get one of the places you are looking for. And inside the sound level can be erected, which probably make a romantic dinner two more difficult. From my own experience, however, I can say that it can be celebrated here with friends. Later I return to the “Piccola” (as the Landauer Regionalkulinariker would like to say in short, especially on the advanced Friday morning so between 13.30 and 14.30. For me a perfect transition to the upcoming weekend and also a delicious weekend break that can also be addressed with good colleagues. At this time, the big “Run” is on the lunch menu (the legendary “Pasta Mista” consisting of three different, constantly changing pasta dishes, with drink for unbeatable 7.60 euros, as well as a meat or fish-laden daily dish, which is just under the 10 euro mark, and the employees have already agreed to their well-earned lunch. In my last visits (it was certainly already 3 or 4 this year alone, I always ordered the mixed noodles, often only as “two combination”. There you just have a little more on the plate of his favorite pastries if you want to do without the "third pastry"... or can do. There are many variations. The “Spaghetti Piemonte” (with mushrooms in cream sauce or the “Fusilli saporiti” (with broccoli and ham in tomato sauce sounds just as delicious as they taste. And the hearty “Pasta alla Bolognese” is always available. Your spicy meat sauce makes you realize that you like to cook here with wine. It is nice that this classic is a kind of “fixed term” that enriches every lunch table. In the last Ma(h l there was Rigatoni with eggplants and spicy calabresian salami for the “Bolo share”. My accompaniment also chose the linguins in potato cream sauce. How to treat the noodles “old dente” despite “warm box” is a secret for me, but it is hard to deal with such questions when it sounds so tender. Order in the lunch menu at a food counter where the check card is also loaded with the amount to be paid. You pay for this at checkout in the entrance area. For my green side salad (with olive oil and mild balsamico I received a so-called "Pager", whose unpleasantly vibrating ringtone points me to the finished preparation. By the way, you get it for all “A la Carte Orders” and for the daily dish. When we meet in the evening with friends in the “Piccola”, the Bruschetta Tradizionale (fits from the name... with tomatoes, rucola and parmesan (5,90 €) is traditionally ordered. I do not share the criticism of my colleague, "Keeshond" regarding the complex complaint and the disproportionately calculated price. It comes to the products and they taste great – from fine olive oil to spicy parmesan. And you will move to normal level. What, by the way, draws through the attractive selection of dishes on the map as a red “price of the service thread”. On a whole range of appetizers classics, such as carpaccio from beef fillet (11,90 € or Vitello tonato (10,90 €) there is a proper selection of pizzas (with 32 cm diameter, price between 7 and 13 euros depending on the coating and paste dressing. The “Linguine ai gamberoni” (12,90 € come on the plate with a well lubricated curry cream sauce and are worth their money as well as the homemade “Involtini Emiliana” (11,90 €). In addition, there are also some ingenious meat dishes (e.g. the “filetto di maiale piccante”, pork lure on a pikanter sauce with rocket, parmesan and rosemary spices, for €16.90 on the map. The classic fish plates are even more Mediterranean. Regardless of whether you enjoy a kilo of grilled gambas with herbs, dips and fresh pizza bread (33.90 €) or opt for the grilled wolf barschfilet on Rosmarinrisotto (19.90 €), you get a little more on the pelle in a tasteful way to the sea, and this makes you right in summer. An additional monthly card adds the already large selection of dishes from the standard ticket Seasonal. In the month of June he included swordfish or lamb chops from grill (19,90 € or 22,90 €), Saltimbocca alla Romana (19,90 €, asparagus risotto (11,90 € and Auberginenauflauf (10,90 €). The service makes his work skillfully unattended. With a lot of routine and a real part of Italian serenity this can happen without great hectic. Many regular guests are welcomed and admitted by hand. The friendly, insurgent “Small Talk” is a good sound here. In previous reviews (on a portal whose formerly good name sounds a bit more like a broken toilet... showed the quality of the food that has risen over time, so you can also add the drinks. Cross over and over the Italian vineyards you can order glass or flax here. Via Apulia, Campania, Piedmont, Abbruzzo to South Tyrol the Italian wine tour leads. With over 10 different open white and red wines, friends of the “vino italiano” come at their expense. The wrong area (0.2 litres) is available from € 4.90. The bottle wine prices are in many cases below €20. With a new offer you will get the opportunity to discover more unknown pitfalls under the heading “Winzer of the Month”. From the Oberhausener Weingut Geiger, a dry Grauburgunder and a Chardonnay (both for 4.90 € 0.2 liters completed the well-sorted wine card in June. Finally it is worth mentioning that it is somewhat too bright in the interior, which is why I prefer the romantic atmosphere of the terrace in summer. With the good food quality, the rich range of Italian wines and the tasteful furniture, I always come with my friends and colleagues to the Landauer outskirts to be a little closer to Italy. And the whole thing without park stress!
