Al Dente in Chieming

Superb pizza and pasta – the best view in the garden, and very friendly service. A great stop while cycling around the lake and feeling very hungry!

The view from the beer garden is always a dream. Delicious food and friendly, very fast service.

For a short break, a drink, and a piece of cake. We were warmly welcomed and served, and treated to a fantastic view and delicious food.

Absolutely fantastic Italian restaurant with a beer garden right on the shores of Lake Chiemsee. Delicious food and excellent service! Reservations are recommended.

Top service, top food, top view. No long waits, very friendly staff, and excellent food too. We had pizza and pumpkin ravioli twice, both very tasty! Thank you for the great lunch!

A very good Italian restaurant with a stunning view of Lake Chiemsee. The front-facing seats, facing the lake, are popular and quickly booked, but the other seats further back also offer excellent views. The small antipasti platter as a starter was one of the best I've ever had at an Italian restaurant. We will be back.

We spontaneously stopped by for dinner last Sunday after our arrival. It's a truly beautiful location right on Lake Chiemsee. The staff is very friendly, and even though the beer garden was completely packed, we never had to wait long for our food!

Great location, overlooking Lake Chiemsee!

Really good food, I would recommend it to anyone who is in the area.

Excellent Italian cuisine with a changing menu! Reservations are required, but you can now also book via phone! 😉 We were extremely satisfied, and the food was truly delicious! 👍🙏

The beer garden with the most beautiful view of Lake Chiemsee. The sunsets are unforgettable. The food is excellent Italian. The fish is especially recommended. Updated 2025. As mentioned, unchanged.

Top, very good cuisine and a very nice garden on the lake.

Very tasty pizza and nice service

The pizzas are good, the charm of my terrace by the lake

We've been to Al Dente many times and have always been very satisfied. We had visitors yesterday and wanted to please them, so we went back to Al Dente. There were four adults and two children. Unfortunately, the service this time was very, very poor. After the drinks arrived quickly and we placed our orders with the waiter, a main course of spaghetti with seafood and one of the two mixed salads we ordered arrived after about 10 minutes. The orders for the remaining main courses – Pizza Chef, Pizza Margarita, Rigatoni, and a fish platter (which was very limited) – only arrived after about 30 minutes when we asked the waiter where the rest of the food was. Then we had to wait another 20 minutes. The second salad didn't arrive at all! Nobody knows what the problem was. But no one apologized, which is completely unacceptable!

Everything was good. Very friendly staff and delicious pizza.

Really friendly staff and great food. I can recommend the Salmon Tagliatelle. It gets busy because it's so good.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We were absolutely thrilled with Al Dente in Chieming! The location itself is a dream – directly on Lake Chiemsee with a magnificent panoramic view under old, shady trees. You immediately feel at home and can enjoy your stay to the fullest. The service was super friendly, attentive, and incredibly fast – we hardly had to wait, which made the experience even more pleasant. The food also completely convinced us: great quality, fresh ingredients, and excellent value for money. Everything is just perfect here – from the ambiance to the service to the food. We will definitely be back and can highly recommend Al Dente!

Great location right on Lake Chiemsee. Best at sunset. Delicious pasta. The panna cotta is a dream. Super fast and friendly service. You can't make reservations, so you'll have to wait a bit for a table.

The view is the best! Right on the lake, in the shade, friendly service.

Super super super delicious pizza. We took it to go and didn't even wait 10 minutes. Every recommendation

Sign at the entrance says: You will be seated. However, you are simply left waiting for a long time and ignored. Not recommended. You don't feel welcome here as a guest. It's a real shame.

Unfriendly service and bad food

My 4-year-old daughter asked me to say again that the service was super friendly. Thank you for the great service! The food was also delicious, by the way! 😊

Great view of the lake, Super friendly staff, Short wait for food

A great place to watch the sunset over Lake Chiemsee. The service and food were also very good.

Super delicious! Great location.

Unfortunately, the pizza was only average and quite expensive. We ordered takeout, so no comments on the service or ambiance.

Very nice and located directly on Lake Chiemsee, with a nice beer garden. I made a reservation via the website tool, although I had the feeling it wasn't as busy as advertised. The food was delicious, the prices are absolutely reasonable for the location, the portions, and the quality, and the service was quick. Service: A smile doesn't hurt, and not everyone can handle the "local" sense of humor. It seemed rather brusque and taciturn, and the warmth and feeling of being truly welcomed was somewhat lacking. Hence only 3 stars for this area, but everyone can have a bad day sometimes. But definitely a place to go again on your next visit to Lake Chiemsee.

I've known al Dente since 2019 and was a regular there until the change of management. My first visit yesterday. A different reservation, but it was great! It was nice to see familiar faces in the service after a long time. My pasta vongole tasted perfect; it could have been just 50-80g more spaghetti. My mother's small pizza speciale was also okay. I'll probably go to al Dente more often; I felt completely at home and at home again. Apart from that, there was nothing else to complain about.

Four of us went out to eat and after a five-minute wait, we got a seat in the beer garden right by the lake. The food and drinks arrived quickly. The food was very tasty, and there was something for every taste. We'll be back.

We had lunch there during a stopover. The setting is superb. View of the lake, in the shade of the trees. The bruschetta was delicious, the pizza was ordinary. The service was mediocre: 2 glasses for 4 because we only had a large bottle of water...

Unfortunately, the quality of the restaurant has noticeably deteriorated. The tablecloth was dirty – the only positive thing was the beautiful view. There were two of us and we ordered different pasta dishes. Shortly afterward, we both experienced severe stomach cramps and persistent gastrointestinal discomfort. Very disappointing and annoying.

Maybe we were just unlucky. We had rigatoni al forno. It was prepared with lots of cream and salt, but the Bolognese sauce was nowhere to be found. Unfortunately, it tasted very bland. On the other hand, the service was very friendly. We were seated without a reservation and received excellent service. The location is very beautiful.

The food was excellent, the service was perfect—what more could you want with such a great view of the lake? We'd definitely go back 💪🏻

The food was okay, not outstanding, just average. A typical tourist restaurant for one visit. I was very disappointed because the waiter "accidentally" didn't give us the €10 in change and left the money for my companion instead of me. Only after I asked for it did I receive the €10, but without any comment. We won't be back, even though we live nearby. What a shame!!!!!

Everything was top-notch from start to finish! Super friendly staff! The best pizza in the area for me. Always happy to come back!

We've been waiting for over 35 minutes for a pizza that should have arrived in 10 minutes at the latest. What a pity...

Truly delicious pizza. Rare, highly recommended. Lovely beer garden atmosphere right on the lake.

Well, I was just thinking about my first visit to Al Dente while having breakfast tea. So I'm going to vent my frustration now so I can wrap things up. A few weeks ago, I was there with two friends. The employee showed us to a table. I then politely asked if the table was really free because the sign said "reserved." The employee snapped at me: "If I say so," and pulled a face as if I'd just insulted his mother. The guests at the neighboring tables heard this too. We then ordered three dishes (pizza, salad, pasta). We waited an hour and 40 minutes for the food. The guests who sat down at the next table after an hour got their food 20 minutes before us (we had been forgotten). When it came time to pay, I politely told the waiter (not the one who showed us to the table) that I was not satisfied with the service because of the two points mentioned above. Therefore, I don't want to tip and want my change back (€0.50). The waiter slams the change down on the table with great force and snaps at me, "I don't need that," while pulling a face like it's been raining for three days. I don't know when I've ever experienced such unfriendly staff in a restaurant. But I want to be fair. There was a very large wedding party in the restaurant that day. They were all just running back and forth with the trays. Things can get a bit chaotic, and friendliness unfortunately falls by the wayside, and the bad mood is then taken out on the nearest person. We're all human, and everyone has a bad day sometimes. By the way, the food was absolutely delicious. The price was right, too. I would definitely recommend Al Dente.

Beautiful beer garden with a stunning view of Lake Chiemsee! The food was served very quickly. The pizza is delicious. The salad is super fresh :) We'll definitely be back!

Beautiful location - impeccable service - delicious food - everything was perfect! 👍 Large appetizer plate could be a bit larger for the price...!

This place is a disgrace! I've rarely experienced such bad service. They're way too fussy. Unfortunately, there's no point going there with two people. We stood in line for 40 minutes because they gave priority to larger groups. Finally, we were told we couldn't get a table for two. Thanks for nothing. A disgrace!

Not worth a star. Very unfriendly staff. Mass processing!!! You only get a table for two people if you sit with others. People with more people are deliberately given priority to make more profit.

Excellent food—especially the fish (Chiemsee char and catfish), attentive and friendly service. Great outdoor ambiance with a lake view. Very child-friendly! Highly recommended.

It was our first time eating at Al Dente, and it was fantastic. We got a table on the terrace. The staff was super friendly. Even when we asked to be seated closer to the lake after ordering, it wasn't a problem. The pizzas arrived hot and were delicious! Whenever we're in the area again...we'll definitely be back!

Absolutely unreal, best food I’ve had my whole life , gorgeous area, amazing view, friendly staff absolutely breath taking. I could kiss the chef after my meal. Truly heaven

The restaurant was packed, with people even standing at the entrance waiting for a table, so I expected a longer wait for the food. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly the food came out. The place is clearly well-organized. Great location right on the lake.

The restaurant is beautifully located with direct views of Lake Chiemsee. There's a winter garden, as well as outdoor tables, weather permitting. Advance reservations are essential. The staff is very friendly, and the food is highly recommended.

A small restaurant with a winter garden and beer garden. The ambiance is stylish, bright, and Mediterranean-style. You have a direct view of Lake Chiemsee. In the winter garden, there are small heaters at each seat that you can turn on and off yourself. The service is very attentive, prompt, and friendly. The food was freshly prepared and beautifully presented.

Simply fantastic beer garden, delicious pizza, friendly service and all at absolutely normal prices. Great, keep it up 👍

A very beautiful and warm environment, and when the sun sets in fine weather, it warms your heart. Thank you for this beautiful place.

Unfortunately, the beautiful beer garden is apparently no longer served

Delicious pizza and great view😎!!!

The food is delicious and the view over Chimsee is really nice. The staff is friendly and although waiting time can be long it is well worth it. Highly recommended if you love Pizza and a good view!

Very great place, good service, polite waiters and very delicious food.

Very quick and friendly staff, beautiful view of the lake. Pizza and pasta, as well as coffee, 10/10 - we'd be happy to go again!

Worst pizza we've eaten in a long time. A vegetarian pizza with old vegetables, celery, and onions. The cheese is also old. Very disappointing. And all for €15.

We were there for dinner when a violent storm hit. While the world was ending outside, it was pouring with rain, and the storm made it dangerous under the trees, we were still thrown out of the restaurant because it was closing time 😬. We found that very inappropriate. Apparently, it's all about our money and not about hospitality and the safety of our guests. The whole thing happened in 2024, but I'm still annoyed about it today.

Good Italian restaurant. The view of the lake is fantastic, and there's plenty of shade in the summer thanks to trees and umbrellas. The service wasn't so good in this instance, but maybe he was having a bad day.

The food is absolutely delicious, whether it's pasta, pizza, or salads. The appetizer plate deserves special mention; it's absolutely delicious! The atmosphere is very cozy, and the view right by the lake is, of course, amazing 😊 The prices are a bit high, but still reasonable; we live in Chieming, a tourist town.

The location and view were beautiful. Service was subpar, and the food was okay but not good.

Child-unfriendly and disappointing service – we won't be back Unfortunately, our visit was disappointing overall. Our first impression: absolutely child-unfriendly. There isn't a single children's dish on the menu, not even something simple like fries or a small portion of pasta – although that would be really desirable in a beer garden with a family clientele. The service was also disappointing. The gentlemen serving didn't seem overwhelmed, but completely disinterested. Not a friendly word, no asking if they enjoyed their meal, no clearing or taking the menu – that's what you'd expect from good hosts. Additionally, we were served Campari carelessly in a water glass without a straw, a piping-hot Coke, and a side salad that seemed just as careless as the service. On the positive side, the very good pizza and the beautiful view in the beer garden deserve mention. Nevertheless, we're certain that we won't be returning here.

It could have been so nice if the totally greasy food had arrived at the same time and the tattooed, smelly waiter hadn't made stupid comments.

You don't have to wait long to get a seat in the beer garden and enjoy the sunset right by the lake. The food was delicious, and the service was very friendly.

The service is extremely averse. They operate on the principle of: what can I do to make the guest feel uncomfortable? The pizza was delicious. The location is fantastic. You ruin everything with the service.

There was delicious pizza, very nice service and mN sits directly on the Chiemsee and can enjoy the sunset

Nice place to linger. We went there for lunch; the food was good, but the service was a bit lacking. Unfortunately, the waiter that day was completely lacking in empathy. The view from the terrace is incredibly beautiful. I'll be back.

Food was okay. Nice atmosphere - BUT Disastrous staff, unfriendly, arrogant, and not at all professional!

Of course, you have the option of enjoying a great view of the lake. However, the service isn't quite our cup of tea. Quick, quick, quick Not welcome, but "Next please" The pizza was okay

The food is good. A fantastic view of Lake Chiemsee.

I cannot recommend the restaurant "AL DENTE." We were very disappointed with our visit. We wanted to order pasta al dente – the waiter said that they cook their pasta in advance and "you get what's on hand." This is completely unacceptable for an Italian restaurant, especially at these high prices. The service was poor: The waiters were unfriendly and reacted irritably to normal requests. My lemonade came in a dirty glass – you could clearly see lip prints. After we asked for a new glass, all we got was water with a slice of lemon, no syrup or flavor. We ordered a salad, a coffee, an apple strudel, and a lemonade. The bill: €40. Far too expensive for the quality and service offered. ❗️The restaurant AL DENTE is not worth recommending. Poor service, mediocre food. We won't be back.

The food is decent, and the ambiance right on the lake is, of course, first-class. The service was also good.

The ambience is very nice with a view of the lake, the food was ok but nothing special, good service

Extremely rude and unfriendly blonde lady at the bar/pizza takeaway stand. I actually wanted to order pizza, but was immediately turned away in a very rude and snippy manner, without even being given a chance to speak.

I was at Lake Chiemsee with my family and wanted to order pizza to go. No one was available by phone, so we stopped briefly to order directly. There's a large window that says "Pizza to Go." Behind it, a lady was preparing drinks. I waited a moment and asked if I could order pizza to go (or if that was the pickup area). Annoyed, the lady replied, "No, not now." I was a bit perplexed and looked at the lady in surprise. She then replied, "I'm too busy, come back later, in about half an hour." Well, not to pick up the food, but to place my order. So I can't comment on the food or the ambiance—the somewhat "different" service preceded that.

A beautifully located restaurant. The pizza was okay, but could have been cooked a bit more thoroughly. The shrimp tagliatelle, on the other hand, was extremely flavorless, and the pasta was overcooked. This dish should definitely be reconsidered.

Very good food and friendly service

Pizza tastes like a ready-made pizza, no thanks!

I haven't had a large portion of pasta at an Italian restaurant in a long time. It was really delicious, with friendly service and a great view. We'll definitely be back.

A very nice spot right on the water. Large, delicious portions. The server was right there, very polite, and pointed out the daily specials.

Got pizza in 5 minutes. Pasta and everything was super delicious! Incredible view 😍

Delicious food. Unfortunately, a female server behind the "take-out" counter was very unfriendly and unaccommodating. Although the weather was nice, it wasn't possible to order outside. So you have to order takeout and sit outside. This means that drinks (including Spritz) are only available in paper cups, and a panna cotta can't be taken outside because it's already in a glass. Strange – other people were allowed to take beer outside in beer glasses...

Great food! Always check the specials on board. Great food. Always check the daily specials!

Right on Lake Chiemsee, in a very beautiful location. The staff is very friendly and quick. We only had antipasti, but they were very good.

We reserved a table online a week in advance. The reservation was confirmed by Luca Leon Fleissner. We arrived on time, but were told that online reservations weren't a good idea at the moment because the terrace was always very full. (That's why you make reservations, right?) After a brief discussion, we were advised to wait in line. Very poor customer service.

Very attentive and friendly service

Our order wasn't taken for 40 minutes, and then we were told it was too late to eat. Service was completely overwhelmed. We left the restaurant hungry after an hour.

Great place with a great view to relax with very good food

Delicious fresh ingredients, a bit expensive but in the evening you can enjoy the sunset.

A very nice restaurant, and the food was incredibly delicious. They also served a shandy...wow, I've never had such a delicious shandy. The outdoor area is also very nice. Unfortunately, we didn't get to sit directly on Lake Chiemsee. It was rainy and cold when we spent a few days there. When we left, I grabbed a "Betthupferl" (a pizza) for myself. It was sooo delicious... :) The restaurant is highly recommended!

Really good food for the price and fast service.

A nice restaurant with a lake view. The pizza was so delicious. The best pizza ever!!

A very good Italian restaurant with fair prices. The food is very good 👍 and very tasty 😋. Al Dente can be recommended with a clear conscience. 😎👍😋

Wonderful pizza, right on the lake

Beautiful restaurant right on the lake. We paid just over €40 for a pizza, a large mixed salad, and two drinks. So, it's on the expensive side. The waiter could improve his friendliness a bit.

Beautiful location right on the lake. Good service and very good pizza. Overall, we were very satisfied with everything. The only downside is that there is no parking at the restaurant. Unfortunately, there are only paid parking spaces at the lakeside resort.

We (two adults, one toddler in a stroller, and a dog) were about to go to Al Dente for dinner, but were initially ignored for several minutes. After being rudely assigned a seat, we were again rudely verbally pushed out of the way. We can't comment on the food or the ambiance, but in the first few minutes alone, we felt unwelcome and went elsewhere.

I'm really disappointed. €32 for a small steak and a tiny portion of potato casserole. When I say tiny, I mean tiny. I wasn't even asked how I wanted my steak. The other dishes seem fine and tasty, but I'd advise against the steak... A huge disappointment.

Very friendly service, very good food, excellent ambience.
