Cucina Italiana in Nürnberg

Not recommended. The cheese sauce was inedible.

We've been coming here for 20 years. Best Italian restaurant in Nuremberg. Family atmosphere and very high-quality food. Authentic Neapolitan pizza. Very child-friendly and generally welcoming, even if you arrive a little late for your meal.

The pasta with prawns, gnocchi, and bruschetta were excellent. The service was friendly and prompt. The ambiance is actually quite nice, but the tables are too close together. A little distance would have been nice, ensuring a quiet meal. Perhaps that will change.

Looks very good and the service is very nice

We both had a fantastic evening at this restaurant. The staff were extremely friendly and attentive, with a truly warm attitude toward the guests. The drinks were served promptly, and when the glass was empty, the owners and staff were attentive and politely asked if we needed anything else. The pasta was a treat! The steak was also perfectly cooked; grilled vegetables would have been a good alternative to the meat instead of the potatoes ;-) A truly beautiful and modern restaurant! Since it was quite busy when we were there, I still recommend calling ahead to reserve a table. Thank you for the delicious experience!

Restaurant run by a family, very attentive and friendly!!! Delicious food, ice-cold beer, and very good dessert!!!

Very friendly service, super fast service and the food was excellent and we had our pizzas within 10 minutes.

We come from Hof ​​and are always happy about the delicious food and of course the super nice conditions

Thank you for the delicious food and exceptionally good service! You feel like you're in Italy and part of a big family.

Excellent, typical Italian food, cooked by a very personable chef and served by friendly staff! A wonderful family business with heart!

We came here for dinner late Saturday afternoon and it wasn't busy, so we had our pick of tables. We ordered bruschetta, prosciutto pizza, and a sirloin steak with potatoes. Everything arrived quickly and tasted delicious. The service was friendly, and the price was absolutely reasonable. You can do it!

Wonderful staff Courtesy and kindness are their Wildcard

Super nice restaurant, fast service. The food was Italian and made with love. The tiramisu is homemade and highly recommended. I go there several times a month and am always satisfied. As a regular, you often get a homemade limoncello! It's worth it. Thanks and best regards

A truly great Italian restaurant! The ambiance is beautiful and cozy; you immediately feel at home. The food was absolutely delicious, freshly prepared, and authentic. I was particularly impressed by the impeccable service: friendly, attentive, and warm. I'll definitely be back; a true recommendation for anyone who loves good Italian food! 🍝🍷

We were lucky enough to get a table on a Saturday without a reservation. Dogs are welcome. Friendly service We enjoyed the food: pizza 👍 and spaghetti with clams 👍👍. We'll be back when we're in Nuremberg.

The food was delicious and the service impeccable. Friendly staff, quick service, and a pleasant atmosphere – highly recommended.

Our server was extremely friendly and prompt, and we thought the pizza dough was excellent. Even a minor misunderstanding was resolved without any complications. Furthermore, despite a special offer, a special request was accommodated. The pizza was ready in no time, late Saturday evening. They were also easy to reach by phone despite the weekend. We'll definitely be back 👍

Unfortunately, a complete rip-off. I was here twice within a week. The first time, I got a piece of tiramisu for €6 – a large and fair price. Just two days later, I ordered two pieces and was suddenly asked to pay €18. When I asked for an explanation, I got no explanation. The waitress was completely overwhelmed and just said she'd get the manager. After waiting forever, I left because I simply didn't have any more time – and I had to leave. Even worse: The pieces were tiny this time compared to before. The menu clearly states tiramisu for around €6, and yet they wanted to charge me an unrealistic price. In my opinion, this is clearly a rip-off and a customer rip-off! My conclusion: Pricing is completely non-transparent, service is no help, and in the end, I'm left with a very bitter aftertaste at the way they treat customers. I just want to warn other guests: Check the prices carefully before you order! Outrageous, and the impression that they're deliberately trying to rip off guests – for me personally, that means: never again!

We had a family celebration there with about 15 people. It was perfect: impeccable service, fantastic food, and absolutely child-friendly! They came by every few minutes to ask how we were and if we needed anything else. The whole family was completely happy!

Warm wine, floury pizza dough, and taciturn service that seemed uninterested in anything. The lovely evening was thanks to the location and the pleasant ambiance.

Beautiful ambiance. Lovely, relaxed service. Delicious food!

Very tasty pizza and extremely friendly hosts.

We had three excellent pizzas, and the entire staff was very friendly and helpful. The evening was enlivened by a singer who sang along with his guitar. Final rating: 10/10.

We had two delicious pizzas. The service was excellent. Super friendly, accommodating, and pleasant to deal with. We'd be happy to come back. Thanks also for the limoncello on the house 💚

The pasta with gorgonzola was very mediocre, very bland. The four-cheese pizza was very mediocre, with thick crusts that we left behind. Not recommended for dinner.

I come several times a week and feel like I'm in Italy. Best food in Nuremberg.👍👍👍

Tonight, Cucina Italiana had some initial difficulties with UberEats. However, a friendly employee took care of my order in a very cordial and courteous manner and made sure it arrived. The food was absolutely delicious, and I highly recommend Cucina Italiana!

Always good! We always enjoy coming here, and our special dietary requests are also taken care of excellently!

I ordered a four-cheese pizza and was deeply disappointed. The cheeses were cold, not melted, and the pizza wasn't served as hot as it should be. This is unacceptable from both a kitchen and service perspective. It's disappointing to see quality and presentation standards at this level.

The food tastes great and looks great too. We received friendly service, although I had the impression there was a slight language barrier and not everything was understood. The prices are on the higher side, but justified by the taste and location.

Family welcome, very kind owners, high-level restaurant where you eat with Italian flavors.

Very, very nice, very, very tasty. Highly recommended, always happy to go back. 10000 stars

Great food, generous portions, very nice and friendly staff. The price/performance ratio is completely justified.

Excellent service, great food ( fish could have appreciated a bit less heat, but otherwise absolutely great), wonderful Italian flair - loved it.

You'd expect the kitchen to make something delicious with Rigatoni Gorgonzola, but clearly, they just boiled the pasta and threw on a cheese sauce. The gorgonzola was truly unrecognizable. The cheese sauce was bland, so the dish was flavorless and incredibly boring. The pizza looked unkempt. The ingredients are definitely not top-notch, which gives the pizza a run-of-the-mill flavor. The wine is okay, but the food is simply terrible for an Italian restaurant.

A lovely Italian restaurant in a central location with very friendly service. The restaurant is located in the heart of the old town and has a lovely indoor and covered outdoor area. It offers a good, classic selection of dishes. From fresh pasta and pizza to a fine wine selection, anyone who loves Italian will find something to their liking here. The service is very attentive and friendly. The prices are reasonable for the location and quality. Paid parking is available in the area, both on the street and in the parking garage (it's in the city center, after all). We've had a good dinner there several times now and will definitely return.

Pizza and pasta, just the way we like it, incredibly delicious. And it's a feast for the eyes. A complete delight. Excellent service and a pleasant outdoor area (we only sat outside).

A restaurant found by chance on Google on a rainy evening when looking for a restaurant to eat Italian... what can I say, a fantastic experience. The family that runs it is very kind and warm and when my partner and I are in Nuremberg we never fail to go and say hello to Pina and her family and eat a fabulous pizza and a spaghetti alle veraci that you can only comment on by eating it! Highly recommended place!

My experience dates back to a few months ago (I think it was around October 2024). We both went in without a reservation and they gave us a table for two. So far everything was fine but after ordering an aqua panna with two glasses I noticed that there were traces of tomato on my glass. Disgusting, I had it changed, and they brought me a different glass than the one I had before, shape and all.. I don't know. Okay, apologize? What the hell. Then the waitress accidentally dropped the pepper breaking the glass container not even a meter away from us. We wanted to help her but She seemed really pissed off and I hoped she didn't trip over my backpack but I doubt it since I had put it under my chair.. in any case, the smell of pepper was terrible but we were not moved. My pasta was quite good but the calzone we ordered was still half raw. The inside was lukewarm and the dough not fully cooked. When we left I said goodbye before leaving the place but I was completely ignored, which is funny because until the dirty glass I didn't complain about anything. Given my first such negative experience I will look for other Italian places to eat.

Authentic Italian! Delicious espresso, amazing tiramisu, relaxed and friendly hosts. Bravissimo! 🇮🇹👏🏻

Great experience. After a week with a fairly questionable diet, hungry I was looking for a real Italian pizza, and to finish off finally a real espresso. Friendly, qualified staff, family-run place that is very Italian. Too bad my time was really limited and I didn't have time for a dessert and something else. Really good pizza from the dough to fresh ingredients. in short what can I say, as always when I'm satisfied I end my review with a Bravi, but this time Bravissimi.

Very fine Italian food and very friendly staff. You really felt at home. I can highly recommend it.

You can sit outside when the weather's nice. The service was friendly and quick. Prices were reasonable. I felt the food wasn't seasoned enough, but otherwise it was good.

El servicio era malo. Los medallones de cerdo eran pequeños e insípidos y el filete de ternera estaba duro y mal cocinado. La pizza estaba bien.

The food in the restaurant is good and tastes very good. We are satisfied. However, we had it delivered yesterday. The pizzas were incredibly watery and soggy. It was simply no longer edible and really annoyed us.

One of my favorite Italian restaurants downtown. Since a modernization a few months ago, the inside has become even more comfortable, and the outside has a quiet outdoor area under umbrellas and trees. Nice and shady. Great value for money, especially with the lunch dish. The espresso at €2 is actually extremely cheap if you look at others in the area. The service is always courteous and friendly. My recommendation.

Nice to pick up pizzas more often. Always taste delicious.

The food was as expected from an Italian restaurant - good cuisine and a sufficiently large portion The service needs to be improved a lot: We were a group and would have liked to have ordered a second and third drink - but they didn't really want to serve us, which was a shame and "dry". The guest room is ok, but cannot be ventilated, i.e. the windows cannot be opened, which leads to extremely poor air quality - the ventilation system does absolutely nothing.

I ate here with 4 friends, 3 pastads and a pizza, all three pastas tasted like watered down noodles, the pizza was okay and the price was an absolute joke! The only reason for 2 stars is the extremely nice waiter.

True Italian cuisine. Both the pizza and the gnocchi were very good

The best pasta I have eaten outside of Italy, top-notch service, best atmosphere and with the pleasant company of friends from Milan.

Cucina is simply the number 1 in Nuremberg. The food and service are simply top-notch.

THE Italian place outside Italy! Summer and winter - food is ALWAYS great! Tuto bene :) Grazie

Atmosphere and location is good Staff couldn't speak English very well and Menu is not detailed so we had hard time order But overall quality of foods and vines are okey I recommend it if you looking Italian cousine in Nürnberg Made reservations before go !

Cucina Italiana in Nuremberg is a shop where you immediately feel at home. The food is really NOT run of the mill, but first class. Toni and Davide ensure a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, always with a saying. The service is always friendly, even when it's full - no one looks annoyed here. Perfect for a relaxed evening with really good Italian cuisine. Anyone who has been there once will definitely come back! PS: Apple juice tastes good too🤫

The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was pleasant. However, the pizza didn’t stand out, as it was quite ordinary, and the price was well above average. There are probably more affordable options with better value for money.

Unfriendly staff Manageable portions Unfortunately not to be missed

Very good Italian food, good wines, super friendly service! Thank you! 😊

We've been there for years. On a Thursday evening for two. A handful of guests were in attendance at 7 p.m. We wanted a comfortable table for four. The waiter said there might still be guests who needed it. Of course, hardly any more guests came later. For the service, smiling is a "foreign word" and the language "German" hardly exists. The pizza was okay and the spaghetti carbonara too. But very clear. I wanted parmesan with the pasta, which should be normal for an Italian. The parmesan arrived late. I only took a full spoonful of it. When we looked at the bill later we noticed that it cost 3 euros extra. Luckily we didn't have to pay for the toilet and place settings. Price performance doesn't fit at all. Don't be surprised if the store is empty. Will not visit this location again.

Always a nice experience to dine so well in the Cucina! Familiar, attentive service, delicious and fresh food. Grazie mille!

A beautiful restaurant. Service and food was at the highest level. Others can learn a lesson from this

Italian cuisine for export... simple, linear, like at home. The boss is very nice!!!

Very tasty and great service. Gladly again!

Delicious food and good wines. Only the service could be a bit quicker.

The food is good, the service is nice but it's rare.

Very good pasta i would come again. Recommend it!

Offer delicious gluten-free pasta

Beautiful place, great food and the staff are fantastic!

More of a spot for tourists, it didn't impress me much. I ordered a salad and there was no dressing, they just put oil and vinegar on the table, even when I asked. There would only be that, I found it rather weak. You always had to make yourself noticeable in order to be able to order drinks.

The pizza is very delicious. We ate mushroom pizza. The atmosphere is nice too. We went early, but if you are going for dinner, you need to make a reservation.

I can only give the service one star. Since she was only there once to record and we didn't see anyone else except when the food came. The taste of the food was OK and nothing more. Simply micro-portions so that you can eat again afterwards. The highlight is the salad that comes without dressing. If I offer salads without dressing, it is advisable to write this on the menu or communicate in advance. Otherwise, the atmosphere is simply a canteen and you can understand everyone who is in the room. Overall, a disappointment.

Pizzeria?? ridiculous!!! Pizza with pork or vegetarian! When I asked for an alternative to pork I was told there wasn't one. This is the first time I meet this! Waiters are just a separate point! The waiter Nelo is not customer oriented at all, and my girlfriend and I waited 20 minutes to pay (we called him three times and he just said, "in a moment"), and then he said that we didn't call him. seriously?? And the waitress with the short black hair always pretends to be “stupid”. No matter what you ask, she answers “no German, no English, only Italian”! Excuse me!!!! Am I in Germany? I want to enjoy the food, but here it's also at 0! We ordered bruschettas and wine (I liked the wine), the tomatoes in the bruschettas were wilted (which had been waiting to be served for a long time or were frozen), in the summer I ordered tomato soup - I didn't like it at all, the chicken salad was terrible ( the meat was definitely not fresh and smelled), and the pizza was terrible, even a friend who went there often said that the 4 cheese pizza was really not tasty this time. I gave him a second chance, but it was definitely the last time I was here. By the way, in the end I was told about my complaints: “Okay, but maybe you just forget about these situations?” .just a terrible place

Great authentic Italian restaurant with very good food, very friendly staff

Great service. Very warm welcome. Very good dishes.

Very nice, cozy and delicious ❤️

Nice people, owners and staff... Wonderful welcome, tasty food ❤️

Really delicious food, nice conditions, just great

Everything was very good, I will come back soon. Arrivederci!!!

A very nice Italian restaurant, delicious food and the service was very attentive and super friendly.

Dear Cucina Italiana team – Anna, Pina, Maria, Carlo, Eugenio and everyone else: With your passion, you manage to make the Cucina the shining heart of Nuremberg. Your service is like a hug, and the food – a poem. Keep it up!

Great Staff. Very nice wine selection. Delicious Tiramisu!

Un angolo della nostra Italia a Norimberga (città bellissima). Titolare e dipendenti italiani. Pietanze e pizze a dir poco ottime. Una citazione a parte per Anna, addetta alla sala, sempre accogliente, simpatica e molto attenta alle nostre esigenze. Ti fa sentire a casa. Un saluto a lei ed al simpaticissimo proprietario del ristorante, grande tifoso napoletano. In sintesi, ottimo ristorante veramente italiano!

A corner of Italy in Nuremberg. Both the dishes and the pizzas were excellent. Italian and welcoming staff. A separate mention for Anna, the waitress, for her friendliness and advice on what to eat. Always attentive to our needs, she made us feel at home. Greetings to the very nice owner, a great Napoli fan. In summary, great restaurant!

The assigned chairs were full of large shards, unfortunately I also cut myself on a small one. When we pointed this out, the waitress rolled her eyes and shrugged her shoulders. She said it wasn't her problem since it was the last table and wasn't willing to pick up the pieces or apologize. Disgusting behavior

We were there with 12 people. Very tasty food and great service. Price/performance fits. If we come to Nuremberg again, we would be happy to do so again.

The staff and the owner are very kind and welcoming, with 5 star service. Unfortunately my wife's grilled calamari was too grilled with a burnt aftertaste and my pasta is vongole had top quality ingredients, but the chef dropped a lot of extra salt into the dish, I recommend always tasting before putting the dish on the pass! The children's pizza was ok. Eugenio the proiterio is a true and very kind Italian.

Scostumatezza unica sia dal padre che dal figlio. Pasta scotta e pesce da corsa in bagno. Peccato che anche quello era sporco. Il tavolo praticamente era al buio. Un ora e mezzo per mangiare ( forse il tempo che ci hanno messo a cuocere la pasta tanto era scotta) Di italiano hanno solo il nome. Potrebbero fare degli ottimi wustel (forse). L. un italiano vero

We were there with friends who are regular customers. It was very great and delicious 😋 Great food, great service, great location.

Excellent! Only one thing that was less fresh air was inside.

The food was amazingly delicious, the service was wonderful. I will experience a culinary adventure here

Great place, great atmosphere and delicious food 🤗

Excellent cuisine, we showed up when the restaurant was closing, despite this they welcomed us politely and we ate the best Italian cuisine in Nuremberg

Today was the first time I ate there with my daughter. I can only say that it was one of the best Italian restaurants in Nuremberg!!! Fritto misto mega delicious pizza great and pappardelle with shrimp tasted perfect. Totally lovely, friendly staff as we are used to in Italy, we will definitely be back, thank you dear Cucina Italiana.

Were here as part of a family celebration. There was an aperitif beforehand. Had different starters: none of them were seasoned, antipasti without olive oil, tomato mozzarella not dressed. Pizzas quite good, pasta ok. I had the pork medallions. Here I have to agree with a review from 5 months ago: there were no medallions, but three small flattened dry slices with very little potatoes as a side dish. No revelation in terms of taste. Service in our case was very good and attentive

Very tasty and highly recommended!

The best pasta in Nuremberg and the location is unbeatable

Unfortunately, the food was not recommended, the pizzas were too dry and simply very expensive. But the service was very friendly.

A great restaurant with very good food and nice service.

With the best pizza in Nuremberg

Great service, delicious food. It's definitely worth eating here when in Nuremberg, I recommend it!
