Cardinale in Kaiserslautern

Well-attended Italian restaurant, which unfortunately can also be seen in the food. Unfortunately, our dishes 3x pizza and 1x pasta al forno were in the oven for too long. We had the voucher blocks with us, which fortunately made the price bearable for the quality of the food. Unfortunately, an ingredient was forgotten in a pizza and peppers from a jar/can are unfortunately not possible at all. Unfortunately, the prices without a voucher book are far too expensive for the quality. It's a shame because the service and the location are actually great.

Mega delicious meat! Nice service! Fair prices!

Very nice staff. Cozy outdoor area. The steak was cooked to perfection and very tasty. There was no extra charge for reordering the supplement, which is not the case everywhere. We'd love to come back

Nice restaurant, you can enjoy the good weather outside. Staff are very friendly, food was quite good. Small negative points: the waiting time for food is a bit too long (maybe it was a lack of staff that day), we waited about 40' for the main course after the starters. On weekends you can only pay with cash…

The food was delicious. Reservation recommended as it is very busy.

A very nice beer garden. Food was overall very good. Staff was very friendly and helpful. It has to be mentioned here that the boss also says that they need to have more staff. Would benefit everyone. Reservation of seats is an advantage. A successful evening.

Enjoyed the evening in the inner courtyard with good food and drink when the summer weather was nice. Great service, everything served quickly and hot. Staff always friendly. Prices are also appropriate. What more do you want? But that's also possible when it's cold and you're sitting comfortably in the vault. And again today 👍

We ate here with a larger group and unfortunately had to wait over an hour for the food. The pizza didn't suit my taste, but as we all know, it varies from person to person. Overall, the restaurant is a bit old and could use a little more care.

This restaurant is definitely to be avoided!! The bruschetta was without salt, oil and any kind of flavor. The oil that was then given to us turned out to be sunflower oil and the pizza was so salty that it was almost impossible to enjoy. In the end we were told that everyone had different tastes and that everyone loved their bruschetta. We went after a slice of pizza. Never again!!

Great outside seating. Food and service were really good!

Service was nice and all special requests were met. Food ok, thought the dessert was great. The day we were there: only card payment, it was very loud, dark...

Nice atmosphere in the vaulted cellar. Delicious vegetarian pizza with side salad eaten. Courteous service. Gladly again

A visit to this restaurant feels like a short vacation in Italy. Definitely a restaurant where people and animals feel welcome. My husband and I were guests here for the first time today - but definitely not the last time! Great food, courteous service and a welcoming atmosphere. We are already looking forward to the next visit. 🙏🏻

Very nice atmosphere and the food was excellent.

Super delicious food, cozy atmosphere and friendly staff!

Very friendly staff. The ambience is also very pleasant and modern. We always enjoyed the food very much and varied Italian daily specials are offered at a high level. Price-performance ratio is also good and fair.

The pizza was tasty but a bit poorly topped. The staff was friendly and we received some attention from the house at the end. The wine cellar has an Italian charm and invites you to linger longer. The restaurant still has a courtyard when the weather is nice. Unfortunately, card payment is not possible but this will be pointed out at the entrance.

The food is always delicious and you sit inside in a cozy atmosphere. The service is very courteous and you feel completely comfortable.

Very nice cozy restaurant. Super friendly service, food was delicious and despite the house being full we didn't have to wait long. Always my pleasure

Excellent food and I loved the Cassatta cake dessert. Nothing like what I grew up with, and it was amazing!

Always enjoyed being there again.

We felt very comfortable and warmly welcomed in this cozy vaulted cellar. The veal was very tasty and the starter plate was surprisingly rich. The boss himself serves and gives every guest the impression of being warmly welcomed. Oh yes: and he’s a fan of Betze too!!

A visually stunning restaurant with delicious food and great service

Very attentive, nice and friendly staff. Pizza, salad and the homemade bread were delicious! See you soon

Very friendly and cozy atmosphere. Food delicious 😋 I can recommend it 👍

In short, reception was TOP, service was TOP, food was TOP, atmosphere was TOP. So all in a 10 out of 10. Highly recommended 👍🏼

Fish and steak as well as the tiramisu were delicious, the vaulted cellar is cozy and the service was very friendly. Gladly again.

A wonderful place for dinner. Ambiance, food and service are all top!!!!! Come again……

Very friendly staff, great ambience and the food was really good. The salad and the bread that was served with it were fresh and there was nothing wrong with the pizza either.

Great evening at the regulars' table and El Cheffe was super friendly. Food delicious, service on point. Cozy atmosphere in the vault. You don't need anything more for a convivial evening. Thank you Skendo, we would love to come back 😎

Was there for the first time, very rustic from the outside. Great inside, very cozy and just as unique. Also the food, very quick and excellent quality. Bruscetta as a starter and then the house pizza Cardinale. Both highly recommended. The staff is also very friendly. Looking forward to next time. Be sure to reserve!

We were there for the first time yesterday. Everything was great, the food was very tasty, nice atmosphere and top service 🙌🏼👍🏼 We would love to come back 😍 Thank you again 😊

Nice atmosphere in the vaulted cellar. Food very good, friendly service. When the weather is nice you can sit outside in the courtyard.

The quality of the food and hot drinks in the restaurant was very low and the atmosphere was extremely unpleasant. The owner's treatment of his employees was not appropriate and often seemed condescending, which affected the mood in the entire restaurant. It seemed like there was a constant feeling of insinuation in the air, which significantly detracted from the experience. Such a work environment can have a major impact on the customer experience. I hope that the situation for the employees will be improved to create a more pleasant atmosphere for the guests.

The best Valentine's Day ever! Fireplace & candlelight, wine & the best food in Lautern. the hospitality is second to none 😘 LG. Nina

We particularly liked the beautiful ambience towards the vaulted cellar with fireplace. The gentleman serving was also very nice and entertaining. The pizza was okay in terms of taste and size, not exceptional but definitely edible.

A very nice Italian restaurant with a vaulted cellar. The food was served after about 20 minutes of waiting, which is perfectly fine. 2 pizzas were ordered. The food tasted great. Here fresh mushrooms are placed on pizza. We parked opposite in the Q-Park car park under the Pfalztheater.

I ordered Napoli pizza. It was so salty as if they served me to die. Food was disaster. Generally Italian restaurant they serve Bread and olive oil. I wish they could have served that so that I would not have left the place empty stomach.

Restaurant im Gewölbekeller, Service sehr zuvorkommender und aufmerksam. Excellente Pizza. Der Salat war auch groß und sättigend. Das Ambiente ist total romantisch. Bargeld zum Bezahlen mitbringen!

Bestens Restaurant weit und breit

The staff was well trained. They were polite and perceptive. I ordered 'Lasagna Al Forno' and 'Tiramisu'. Both tasted really good to my liking. We were seated indoor, it was quite inviting ambiance. Would definitely recommend.

Super service and super staff. Must check out.

Das Essen ist sehr lecker und frisch. Man wird schnell und freundlich bedient. Auf die Wünsche der Gäste wird eingegangen und erfüllt Immer wieder gerne

Wir waren, wie schon öfters, sehr zufrieden. Für uns passt alles.

Leckere Tomatensauce mit Knobi Toast gegessen, absolut sympathischer Service. Komme gerne wieder!

Es ist alles Geschmackssache und Geschmäcker sind verschieden. Ich fand das Ambiente top. Der Gewölbekeller hat absolut Charme und das offene Feuer hat alles sehr gemütlich gemacht. Das Essen war (leider) nicht ganz mein Geschmack; es war in Ordnung. Service war flink, freundlich und spaßig. Daher gibt es dafür auch 5 Sterne.

Die beste Pizzen in Kaiserslautern, kann ich nur empfehlen.

Wir hatten reserviert, waren aber, weil wir mit den Öffis gefahren sind, eine halbe Stunde früher dran. Wir wurden herzlich vom gut gelaunten Team empfangen und bekamen trotzdem einen schönen Tisch. Die Wartezeiten waren gering und als man bemerkte, dass wir mit dem ersten Gang noch nicht ganz durch waren, wurde das Essen noch kurz warmgestellt, statt es uns aufzuzwängen. Der Kellner war stets zu kleinen Scherzen mit allen Anwesenden aufgelegt. Mein Essen war ausgezeichnet, das meiner Begleitung gut. Zu meckern gab und gibt es hier gar nichts. Von Anfang bis Ende wurden wir gut umsorgt und fühlten uns wohl. Wir werden gerne wiederkommen. Meine absolute Empfehlung 👍👍👍

Insgesamt sehr schön! Alles super

This place is by far one of my favorite for their lasagna and or their baked pasta. Call ahead and make a reservation, it could get busy but it’s totally worth it.

Sehr schöne und tolle Location/Atmosphäre und das Essen schmeckt sehr gut ! Die Akustik im Keller ist etwas laut wenn es gut besucht ist.

Schickes Lokal im Gewölbe Keller

Love coming here with friends whenever I'm in Kaiserslautern. Great outdoor seating area and a lovely stone basement. Food is usually pretty good, some things better than others, but generally always happy. What's really outstanding is the atmosphere and the friendly service without costing you an arm and a leg! Definitely recommend and will come back!

Wie immer ein Genuss hier zu Speisen, der Chef immer gut gelaunt, das Essen hervorragend, kann man ruhigen Gewissens weiterempfehlen ...

Sehr gutes Essen , top Service und das Ambiente ist sehr schön. Der Kamin in dem Gewölbekeller ist super 🙂👍

Ein italienisches Restaurant mit tollen Ambiente entweder im Gewölbekeller oder im Hof, am Rand der Innenstadt von Kaiserslautern. Der Service war bei unserem Besuch an einem Freitagabend etwas überlastet. Wir haben unsere Vorspeise z.B. erst nach einer Stunde Wartezeit erhalten. Die Qualität der Speisen war leider nur durchschnittlich. Die Preise sind im normalen Bereich.

Das Ambiente ist wirklich sehr schön, ob innen oder außen. Leider muss man wirklich lange warten auf sein Essen, vom Hocker gehauen hat es mich leider auch nicht. Größe der 🍕 Pizza, ca Wagner TK, geschmacklich nicht viel besser als diese. Wir haben beobachtet dass alle anderen Gäste keine Pizza hatten, hat vielleicht seinen Grund.

Sehr sehr schönes Ambiente. Eine super freundliche Inhaberin und das Essen einfach suuuuper lecker. Alles in einem ein perfektes Restaurant. Kommen gerne wieder

Super lieber Service, leckeres Essen! Gerne wieder!

Essen lecker, Service freundlich, aber im kellergewölbe halt etwas stickig.

De bonnes pizzas. Les serveuses sont très à l’écoute et font tout pour satisfaire. Le patron passe auprès des tables. Nous avons même réussi à avoir une assiette de fromages à partager. Et digestif offert. Ne pas hésiter

Sehr gutes Essen in super Gesellschaft

Das Essen schmeckt wirklich super lecker und die Servicekräfte sind total aufmerksam und sehr, sehr freundlich. Im Lokal ist es auch richtig schön. Alles 5 Sterne + Leider war es im Gewölbe so laut, dass eine Unterhaltung nur unter extremer Anstrengung stattfinden konnte. Das Gebläse war ebenfalls sehr laut und hat zudem Dreck auf den Tisch darunter geblasen. Das Gebläse wurde dann zwar ausgeschaltet, das Klima dafür umso stickiger. Kopf und Atmung waren beim Verlassen dankbar. Da ich ja den Gesamteindruck bewerten soll, tut es mir echt leid, dass ich hier nur 3 Sterne geben kann. Schade :-(

Top Essen in super Ambiente. Freundliche Bedienung

Essen klasse, aber auf das Essen über eine Stunde gewartet.

Essen ist ok. Freundlicher Service. Nur Bares ist Wahres. Natürlich alles ohne Quittung...

Schöne Außenanlage,gemütlich und sauber,essen war gut,Service klasse,gutes preisverhältnis

Gutes Essen, besonders die Pizzen sind zu empfehlen, sehr nettes Personal, vor allem können sich manch andere von der Freundlichkeit des Chefs und Ivette vom Service mal was abschauen, hier ist der Kunde noch König! Das Ambiente ist auch mega. Im Sommer idyllischer Biergarten, innen toller Gewölbekeller mit Kaminofen.

Ein sehr schönes restaurant und so eine liebe nette bedieung die sich super toll bemüth und ein lachen hat

Gerne wieder!!! Sehr freundlich u aufmerksam. Essen war lecker. Die Blüten,die ständig von den Bäumen auf den Tisch fallen,kann man auch mit Humor nehmen.

Megagenial. Es passt fast alles! Ambiente, Essen, PreisLeistung, Service! Endlich auch mal ein Restaurant wo ein kleine Portion bestellt werden kann. Es gibt ein Mangel, für den der Besitzer aufgrund des alten Gebäudes schwerlich was ändern kann und das ist die Barrierefreiheit. Daher der Punktabzug.

Schöner Biergarten. Essen war gut. Preise waren fair.

Ich war schon einmal dort.damals war ich begeistert von dem Essen. Wir waren jetzt erneut da. Das Essen war gut, jedoch nicht mehr so toll wie damals. Ich persönlich werde nicht mehr hingehen. Zu wenig Servicekräfte - zu viele Gäste... Man muss auf alles ewig warten und versuchen irgendwie die Aufmerksamkeit des Personals zu bekommen. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und nur am arbeiten, jedoch nach meiner Meinung total überlastet. Mit mehr Personal oder weniger Gästen wäre es bestimmt wieder schön und diese Hektik wäre weg... Gemütlich ist es nicht dort und auch sehr laut

Super freundliches Personal und schönes Ambiente. Es waren fast alle Tische besetzt, sodass es doch sehr laut war. Für eine gemütlichen Abend zum Kennenlernen war es leider doch etwas unpraktisch. Das Essen war 1a!!!! Es ist etwas teurer , aber dafür war die Qualität top

We noticed that most people ordered pizzas, probably for good reasons. Took an hour to get tasteless and watery food. Better food 3 years ago. I ordered ravioli and the sauce was watered down and very thin. I couldn’t taste the Spinach or ricotta cheese in the pasta. The noodles tasted like nothing, as if everything had been frozen too long and served. Pasta noodles were more hot than the spinach and “cream” sauce. NOT WORTH 15. My husband ordered veal with cream of mushroom. He says his “cream sauce” was watery and veal had no taste as if it was also frozen or prepackaged. We asked to pay and were told that the chef wanted to speak to us. We waited more time just for the “chef” to charge us and NOT talk to us. Go else where.
