Castos Emden in Emden

Fantastic Neapolitan pizza and Maradona worship, nothing can go wrong here. It's crowded, reserve well in advance.

Ambiance and service are top. The asparagus was disappointing. Supposedly 250 grams. The quality was mediocre. Partially overcooked. The fillet steak was not medium rare and was difficult to cut with the standard knife. And hey, please never put cold fried onions on an expensive piece of meat. This acts like cooling fins. The coffee was terrible. In the end 4 stars because of the good service and the pizza, ravioli, bruschetta. That was good. The price is justified.

A great shop. We had the starter and main course on the table within half an hour. Service was great, not intrusive at all and absolutely nice. The restaurant is very chic and modernly decorated. The prices are reasonable for the quality. But people like to spend their money here, everything is perfect here from start to finish. We'll be back!

We were spontaneously there with 8 people, including 4 children, and were given a great welcome. The waitress was friendly and immediately conveyed that she would like to host us. The seating and the food, whether pizza, salad or burgers, were great and the children were happy. The interior is modern and rather upscale. We are not from here, but would come back at any time if we had the opportunity. Thank you.

First visit to the Castro yesterday. Professional, very friendly service, good house wine and delicious food 👍

I've been wondering for a long time whether I should even write this review. A lot went wrong that evening. First, at the request of the staff, we vacated the assigned table after 15 minutes and moved to another one. We waited almost 1.5 hours for the main course. The avocado was missing from my bowl. At least I didn't have to pay because there was a large, sharp piece of glass in my drink glass. Of course, mistakes can happen anywhere. But this mistake almost cut my neck open. The staff made an effort, yes. But an unforgivable mistake also happened in the catering industry. The botched evening still cost 250 euros. We asked to pack leftovers from our food. We then had to ask after 20 minutes. After the incident, I would have at least wished that we wouldn't be forgotten again. Please everyone should form their own opinion. I'm sure many people are happy here. It is clear to me that I will no longer feel comfortable here. By the way, when we left, there was a group at our original table that consisted of at most one more person than ours.

If you want to enjoy really good Italian cuisine in a great ambience, this is the right place for you 😊

I've never had better Italian food... and then Otto. Autograph and photo no problem... seems to be a REAL Frisian boy. THANKS.

Wow, the redfish fillet, legendary

Very good service and amazing food!!! The pizza and burgers were so delicious, words can't describe it. We'll be back!!!

Really absolutely great.....everything fits perfectly. Price performance completely OK. Super tasty 🤤👍👍👍

Beautifully located and great ambience

Great restaurant - very tasty food, good wines and friendly, competent staff

Today we went to this great restaurant. We got the tip from a good friend. The ambience is nice and harmonious. You immediately feel at home and can enjoy your visit. I think you can also spend really long evenings there. The food is highly recommended. There is a large selection of starters, main courses and desserts. All the dishes we ate were super tasty, beautifully prepared and an amazing taste experience. We will definitely come back to try the other great dishes. The staff is really friendly and makes the visit a great experience. Everything is taken care of and there is never a long wait. Price-performance is perfectly fine, as the quality and size of the food and drinks are appropriate.

We had dinner with 4 women today. Great atmosphere, nice waiters, very nice decor and great food. Delicious and fresh. Toilet great. There is no parking lot but you sit right next to the water. Top location. Keep it up!!!

Unreservedly recommended. Four of us were there for lunch. All dishes were very good, from the presentation to the taste, the portion and the price, which I don't consider to be overpriced. On the contrary, some pubs in the area have a disproportionate impact, simply because of greed. As already described many times, the ambience is great, inside and out. Gladly again. Oh, I almost forgot the friendly, competent service.

Delicious. Great Sunday savings offer. Super well attended. It was a little too cold for my mother. But I found it warm enough.

I don't think we've ever eaten pizza so well… super nice service. I can understand that Saturday was fully booked. Luckily, we were also able to “experience” Pizza Sunday on Sundays… thanks for that!

Had a delicious meal here with my wife. The menu was very clear and the daily selection was very good. The food was of excellent quality and very tasty. So price performance is justified. The service was great. Attentive, very friendly and courteous staff. The ambience was nice and appealing. We would be happy to come back and recommend this restaurant to everyone.

The cosmopolitan in East Frisia. The exciting restaurant with delicious food, friendly team, despite being full and a unique ambience also fits well in New York, London or Melbourne. Definitely worth a short trip

Can we give 6 stars? They deserve 6 stars! The service was excellent, the food was excellent and the wine pairing was excellent! I had the best wine I've ever tasted (and the most exclusive). We trusted our host regarding the menu and wine, and we were not dissapointed. All of the dishes were so nicely prepared, with a lot of flavours going so well together and amazingly paired with the wine. Everything tasted fresh and like it was made with high quality ingredients. It is a very popular restaurant, with good reason, so I highly recommend booking a table in advance. They take so well care of you, always attentive even on a friday evening when the place is packed. I will have dreams about that "cappuccino" for a long time.

Delicious, professional and exclusive. Update 02/22/25 Everything is still great!

What can I say? Excellent, sensational, a dream. Since my wife likes to cook and cooks world class, I always have the problem in restaurants that I am rather disappointed or not always as satisfied as I had imagined. So it's rare that we go home satisfied. Not like that here. I don't want to start boring you with the description of the food. Just this much: 100% recommendation. I have never experienced Italian cuisine like this in Germany. We happened to be in Emden with the motorhome and had lunch here. I'm uploading a picture.

Excellent attentive service team, very good pizzas

Was there for a business lunch. Food very tasty! Service absolutely top. Come again.

Als Gast, der überaus zufrieden mit dem Essen und dem kleinen Tisch am Innenhafen war, bestellte ich den gleichen Tisch 14 Tage später. Zu meiner Verwunderung schickte man mich heute nach oben zum Chef, der mir einen Tisch in der hintersten Ecke zur Auswahl stellte. Auf meinen Wunsch, den Tisch vorne erneut zu bekommen, ging er nicht ein. Schade, zu einem guten Essen gehört für mich auch der bestellte Platz. Schade, ich war mehrmals dort Gast, jetzt nicht mehr.

You get damn tasty dishes served in this restaurant 😋 The staff are very attentive and always available if you need something 👍 And the ambience is excellent 😁 In the photo you can see dish number 35: Tagliatelle Avocado. Very well seasoned, you can taste every ingredient and there is enough quantity to fill you up 👍

I would love to give it 6 stars, everything was just perfect. I've never eaten so well in a restaurant. The entire equipment is super nice, the entire team is super nice and accommodating and the food is amazing! The children are warmly welcomed and completely included. There is also a children's menu. Just how perfectly the food is prepared and tastes... we'll definitely be back! I've never experienced everything being so perfect!

I visited this extremely nice and pleasant restaurant with my friends. Great food, service and good atmosphere. Kudos to Claudio, the owner of the restaurant, and please keep up the service in the future.

We were visiting Emden and went there on a recommendation Returned. The expectations have still been exceeded. Food and service great too the location is simply wonderful. Thanks again, Family Dittmann

Absolutely first-class cuisine, ambience and service. A smooth 10/10. The Carbonara 2.0 is highly recommended. Large portion and very very tasty.

This restaurant is absolutely recommended. The food and service are really excellent!

The food, service and ambience were extraordinary! We'll definitely be back.

Great food! Service can still be improved 😉 You can tell how stressed all the employees there are.

I visited this restaurant with my family and was impressed by the high quality of the dishes and the professional service. Everything we tried was fresh and tasted excellent. The menu is well thought out and the dishes are prepared with great attention to detail. The service was also first class: the staff was attentive and friendly. This restaurant is suitable for both family dinners and gatherings with friends. Absolutely recommended! 👍

Recommended without reservation, it may be better to reserve.

Was there for the third time now. The ambience is very stylish and varied. Simply different from the standard:) I would classify the food as upscale as well as the great service. We once had a complaint about something and the response was very professional and friendly. I will always come back when I'm in the area.

Top location, super friendly staff, very tasty food

Great ambience, delicious food, great service

Great food, great staff, always happy to come back 😃

The best Italian. The atmosphere is modern and very stylish. The service was attentive, kind and charming. It was very well attended, but you didn't feel any rush. The food... fantastic. The best Italian food. So tasty and every bite is a delight.

We were there in a larger group. The pasta dishes were very tasty, but the burgers and steaks were unfortunately only lukewarm when served. That wasn't all that great. But otherwise a great restaurant!

Such a fantastic place 🥰 Food top ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The carpaccio perfect 👌 Bruscetta too 👍 The staff very attentive and friendly 🥰 The prices are very pleasant, almost too cheap for this quality 😊 And on top of that, the extraordinary and beautiful ambience.

Delicious food Great service and elegant ambience I can recommend Castos to everyone

Very good, plentiful food, friendly, courteous staff, nice atmosphere with a great view of the harbor. Excellent crazy chicken burger (fixed with a knife on the wooden board - funny!!), deliciously topped, wafer-thin pizza with a very thick but fluffy edge (special, a matter of taste) and very good tiramisu with a pretty decoration (large! To share). (You can also see over the covered benches.)

Super nice atmosphere The food is exceptionally good 👍

A fantastic meal, very friendly and courteous service, just a really nice evening to enjoy, thank you very much.

Lovely staff, food very quickly despite being full... just a bit expensive

It was a very nice and delicious evening with friends where the food and service were perfect!

So delicious 😋😋. Pizza Salmone and Pizza Anina.🍕 🍕 The waitresses are also very courteous and nice. Beautiful view directly of the Delf and water

Super tasty food with great service.

Delicious food, perfect service, really highly recommended!

Perfect! And every time. Food always comes at the same time, tastes delicious and is always warm. The service is simply great! Not intrusive and yet always there. Simply the best restaurant in Emden!

Very nice Italian restaurant. Top quality in terms of food and service. Always my pleasure.

I have often eaten a lot in restaurants and am always very satisfied with the selection in Aurich. But your food at Castro’s is absolutely amazing – we were really impressed with what you cooked up here! And then there was the excellent service: my friend asked for an extra dressing, and hey presto – one was freshly mixed for her. Craziness! A big compliment to the entire team! Everything is really right here, and we will definitely make the trip to Emden more often in the future. We'll definitely see each other again! Thomas Bruns

Really very good food, very attentive and above all fast staff. Very satisfied!

Very good Italian cuisine. Pleasant atmosphere, nice staff.

For us the best Italian far and wide

Great conditions, even better food and the final touch is the ambience! Nice details on local attractions!

We were there twice during our vacation. Everything is just right. Great service and fantastic food. Price/performance definitely fits. Highly recommended!

A great pizzeria, everything was great. You only have to take a few steps if you are there by car. But it's definitely worth it.

Very good cuisine at reasonable prices. Spaghetti with shrimp from the lunch menu is highly recommended. Pleasant atmosphere. Located very nicely, right on the harbor jetty. Attentive and nice team. You really feel welcome.

Extremely delicious, particularly friendly and helpful service, plus outstanding, stylish furnishings. What more could the connoisseur want? Reasonable prices, especially since the portions are really filling. Be sure to reserve. For us, THE top location in Emden.

Went there for the first time and were pleasantly surprised. As a birthday child, you get a gift of tiramisu with a sparkler and the idea of ​​the extra-wide pizza crust + dip is a dream. Absolutely worth the price

One of the best vegan pizzas I've ever eaten. The wine was also great, as was the atmosphere and the nice service. I'd love to come back! Thank you very much and kind regards from Berlin

5 stars is far too little. Great food and great service. Gladly again

Great atmosphere, really good service and so far I haven't found anything on the menu that doesn't taste good! Whether for business or with family - always satisfied!

Just had a coffee there. He was excellent. Even though it was just before the end of opening hours, this wasn't a problem. We were greeted and served in an extremely friendly manner. Chapeau

The best Neapolitan pizza in the north. If the journey from Münsterland hadn't been so long, I would have found my favorite pizza place.

Very friendly staff. Everyone courteous and attentive. Food very tasty.

Great atmosphere and very good service

Just really good. Rarely have you felt so comfortable and eaten so deliciously!

I was only in Emden for one night but I would say probably the best Italian in the city👍mega ambience, very nice and courteous service and very tasty and high-quality food. We'd love to come back 🤍

Very great service and advice on food and drinks

With a wonderful view of the Delft, I enjoyed the excellent food served by very friendly staff. Highly recommended. Today I was there again. In terms of food, ambience and especially the staff, the restaurant is the best that East Frisia has to offer, far beyond its borders.

We were there yesterday with 8 people. Nice atmosphere, great service. Very friendly staff, the food was first class. We'd love to come back!!!

It doesn't get any better than that 🥰

We like being there. Friendly staff and good food.

I've been thinking about writing a review about last night for a long time... this restaurant has always been my favorite. We come specifically from Leer and have our expectations. Yesterday was unfortunately very disappointing for the first time. Well... we were there on time, just before 6 p.m., and it started with an unpleasant discussion about our reserved table... ok, settled... the atmosphere yesterday: completely overcrowded, stressed employees, bad air... we ordered drinks, a beer was missing... our starter plate ended up half on the floor and half on the bench, we cleaned the latter ourselves because it was forgotten... a fork was missing from the cutlery... the second drink delivery tipped over the waitress brought a - thank God empty bottle of beer - then our food was forgotten and we had to wait another hour... we were then told that as an apology we would receive a dessert or a drink. Unfortunately we didn't have the choice, a small pistachio liqueur came.... I almost sank into the ground when faced with my guests, I wanted to have a nice birthday evening, unfortunately that was nothing. We don't know that and the 200 euros weren't worth it. It's nice that they apologized, but hey, honestly... you can't accept more guests than you can handle. I was just sad 😞

Very friendly and professional staff, the fantastic food and the pizzas stand out the name of the place, the cocktails are really good and innovative, I recommend it, congratulations

Best restaurant in Emden. Nice ambience, great service and very tasty food. You can spend a great evening here. In the evenings (especially on weekends) you should make a reservation.

Beautifully decorated restaurant with good cuisine and very attentive service. The appetizer platter for two people was perfectly put together and for me the best I've had so far. The ambience invites you to a relaxed evening and the service was perfect. Finally, the delicious desserts, which are highly recommended.

Very nice atmosphere, very tasty food and friendly service. Very happy again.

I could sit wherever I wanted, which is why I sat on a corner bench with my dog. The staff was very attentive and friendly. Every single one made you feel welcome and that you could stay without stress. The food was very tasty, even if I don't know why there would be this purple crumbly stuff on the food. I think that spoiled the taste of the really delicious food. My dog ​​also got water straight away. I never had to wait long for service to come. The prices are high. But an evening in this restaurant right on the harbor is worth a visit. Thank you for the feeling of welcome.

Castos is just super delicious and awesome! The employees Michele, the new employee or the new employees, are just really nice and helpful! Better than The New Sergio! We always enjoy going back to Castros.

My wife and I always liked it 🤗

1a pizza and sophisticated pasta dishes Would love to come back

This restaurant left us speechless. The food was super delicious, with particularly tasty and different ingredients. We went on vacation twice and will definitely come back. The ambience and the service were extremely nice!

Very friendly staff. The food is very very tasty. Not a long wait. Great value for money.

The pizza is great. The homemade dough is especially great. In the pasta dishes, some of the noodles are too al dente. Unfortunately I had to reorder my drink twice. But the service is consistently friendly.

Dejlig mad, sød betjening,rimelige priser Bemærk at restaurant er flyttet til anden adresse i Emden og ligger ikke længere i Hotel am Delf

Very very good! From the starter to the dessert, everything was great! Staff very friendly and humorous. Great ambience!

The food was really delicious; from the main ingredient to the decoration, very finely prepared, simply a pleasure for the eyes and palate!! The service was friendly and accommodating, the location was right on the harbor. And from the entrance to the toilets: a journey of adventure; Everywhere there is something to discover, to marvel at, to dream about; and everything clean!! Of course, the whole thing is also reflected in the price, and rightly so!! Thank you for this experience.👋🏼

Very good lunch menu☝🏼 Everything's great 👍🏼 We often drive there from behind with the 🚲🚲 at lunchtime 🫵🏼

More than just an Italian...for me that is at the moment. best restaurant in East Frisia❤️ finally a reason to go to Emden again😂

A nice ambience at the harbor, tasty, eye-catching food, friendly service. We were here twice out of 3 evenings because we were very satisfied. Everyone who visits Emden should eat here once.

Were there again yesterday with friends, super friendly welcome, great ambience, great food, top service. Thank you for the lovely evening We'd love to come back

We ate in the restaurant on two evenings, both times with perfect service and great food. Both pizza, burger and salad were very good. The ambience in the restaurant is fabulous and invites you to linger, again.

It's always like coming home... very tasty and always very friendly staff

Very tasty pizza, friendly service and great location right at the harbor. Nice ambience.
