Trattoria No. 1 - Leipzig

Delicious Italian food combined with great wines within a cosy atmosphere will guarantee you a perfect stay in this restaurant. Very friendly service and a personal host are welcome you here.

Overcooked pasta is not the best approach to an italian customer, but to be fair the sauce was good. Service nice but confused, made mistakes in bringing plates but misunderstandings may happen. Fish is fresh.

Not sure where to start. I am still puzzled by all the hype and good reviews on here. Location is poor, right on very busy street, very noisy. The tables and chairs are very ugly 80ies decor and there is entirely nothing of quality at this restaurant, starting with paper napkins, to poorly served beer and pasta that is undercooked, not al-dente but still cracking and the sauce straight out of a can. Very disappointed and surely will not return. Don't know Leipzig as this was only our second night out for dinner. Yesterday was marginally better but also only ok at best. Service was friendly and attentive at Tratt 1 and the owner standing out-front with a toothpick in the corner of his mount, playing with his smart phone was good fun watching. If you are looking for authentic Italian or good food - this is not the place for you.

Our idea of having a dinner here did not quite work out today. As for the aperitif neither a prosecco, nor an alcohol-free bitter (Crodino, Campari) appeared to be available. As for starter / main course the house could not provide the risotto (any kind) that was on our mind. Besides, we missed the welcoming attitude that characterizes Italian gastronomy in general. Perhaps we picked the wrong day, and have to try again at a later moment.

Great food, great atmosphere great service, Really cannot fault this place everything made for an absolutely fantastic evening Cant recommend highly enough an absolute must try.
