Da Clà Restaurant in Düsseldorf

A wonderful restaurant experience! We sat outside on the terrace – wonderfully sheltered between the houses in the harbor, shady yet pleasantly airy. The welcome was very warm, and the ambiance was lovingly designed and cozy. Our waiter was the epitome of an Italian host: charming, attentive, and cheerful. The appetizers were not only a culinary highlight, but also beautifully presented. My fish was perfectly cooked, and the other dishes were also well received. The dessert – advertised as a cheese and pistachio cake – turned out to be a creamy dessert in a large bowl, more suited to sharing. Very filling, but also incredibly delicious! All in all, a highly recommended restaurant. Since Confettis in Düsseldorf closed, we've been looking for a worthy alternative – and I think we've found it here.

Very friendly staff and the quality of the food is highly recommended; we had salmon and sea bream.

Very good food and friendly service.

Anyone in Düsseldorf's Media Harbor should definitely stop by! The menu? Short and very well-stocked. Any special requests? Of course, anything will be accommodated. The food? A bit pricey, but all the more worth it. The ambiance is a bit too modern, but that's probably how it should be these days. In short: Italian culinary delights, you'll find them here.

Great experience in a nice atmosphere. The food was delicious and the service was excellent.

Authentic carbonara!! Good, affordable lunch. Nice atmosphere.

Very tasty. I'd gladly go again.

Recomiendo encarecidamente la Buratta! Es para morir. Quizás el mejor que he tenido en mi vida. Como la crema 💘 Así como la tarta de queso pistacho 😋 El servicio era bueno, el vino era bueno, el personal amable. En general, una comida sabrosa agradable.

The Da Cla restaurant is an incredibly familiar place where you feel welcome from the first moment. The food is authentically Italian, with carefully selected ingredients and traditional recipes prepared with love. The staff is extremely friendly, attentive and their warmth contributes to an all-round pleasant experience. The wine list is excellently put together and offers a wide selection of top Italian wines. I can particularly recommend the Cacio e Pepe with tuna tartare, an absolute highlight and a must for all gourmets! A visit to Da Cla is definitely highly recommended - here you can experience Italy at its best!

Da Cla is a cozy and welcoming restaurant offering authentic Italian flavors. The staff are friendly and attentive, and the menu list is excellent. The tagliolini truffle is a must-try! A perfect place for a true Italian dining experience.

excellent service, excellent food, like feeling like family, recommended

Muy buena comida. Restaurante agradable y tranquilo. Preciosa decoración. Servicio súper discreto por italianos de Sicilia. Fue una noche encantadora.

We ate fantastically. Everything was just right here. Many many thanks! The noodles were a poem, mega attentive service. Gladly again.

Kleine Karte, Schönes Ambiente, netter Service, tolle Speisen und Getränke. Komme gerne wieder! Insbesondere das Vittello ist zu empfehlen

La verdad que nos lo recomendaron unos amigos y la verdad que nos ha sorprendido la bien que se come ,la calidad de la comida y el servicio muy bueno los camareros muy atentos y agradables .

Sehr schönes Ambiente & netter Service. Die Spaghetti frutti di mare kann ich sehr empfehlen. Wir kommen definitiv wieder.

We had the pleasure of having dinner at Da Clà today and celebrating my best friend's birthday there - and it was just perfect! We received a warm welcome as soon as we entered the restaurant, and the service was exceptionally attentive and friendly throughout the evening. A particularly nice gesture was the Prosecco on the house to celebrate the birthday, as well as the delicious dessert that we were served as a surprise. The food was excellent, prepared with fresh ingredients and great attention to detail. The starters and main courses were excellent, and the atmosphere in the restaurant was simply wonderful - stylish, cozy and just right for a special occasion. Many thanks to the entire team for this wonderful evening! We will definitely come back and can highly recommend the restaurant!

One of the best Italians in DUS, certainly at the Medienhafen. The pasta is homemade and super tasty 💯

A chic but sterile Italian restaurant in Düsseldorf's harbor district - unfortunately typical for the media harbor, where everything is a little sterile, anonymous and touristy. Food was okay - but for this price you can get a much better dinner from many other Italian restaurants. But the service was very good and attentive!

Excellent dishes and calm atmosphere. We can see that the restaurant is of good quality because the servers remember who ordered what.

die gerichte waren sehr lecker besonders die frische pasta und meeresfrüchte waren hervorragend zubereitet das personal war sehr freundlich und aufmerksam das interieur des restaurants war schlicht aber elegant die lage war ebenfalls sehr zentral und gut erreichbar die preise waren angemessen für die qualität der speisen

I've been there twice now and am very satisfied. The restaurant is a hidden gem in Düsseldorf. One of the few places where you can still get a table every evening without a reservation. No matter where you sit, you have a view of the open kitchen. The food is very tasty, fresh and authentic. The menu has just the right amount of selection, so you have variety but aren't overwhelmed. Given the surroundings, you are at the beginning of the upper price segment (around €20-35 per main course), but in contrast to one or two restaurants in the Medienhafen it is justified and not utopian high. The small drawback is that the service is very nice, but could be a little more attentive, especially when the restaurant is not particularly full. But that is also my personal preference.

Ich war mit einer Gruppe von Freunden im Ristorante Da Cla in Düsseldorf, und es war eine absolut wunderbare Erfahrung. Das Essen war hervorragend – besonders die Cacio e Pepe mit Thunfischtatar war ein echtes Highlight! Eine Kombination, die perfekt abgestimmt war und einfach fantastisch geschmeckt hat. Die Weinkarte war beeindruckend, mit einer großen Auswahl an hochwertigen Weinen, die perfekt zu den Gerichten passten. Der Service war ausgezeichnet – freundlich, aufmerksam und sehr familiär. Man fühlt sich sofort willkommen und gut aufgehoben. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis war wirklich top, vor allem wenn man die Qualität der Speisen und des Services berücksichtigt. Es ist selten, eine so authentische italienische Küche außerhalb Italiens zu finden, aber hier erlebt man den echten Geschmack Italiens. Ich kann das Ristorante Da Cla jedem empfehlen, der in Düsseldorf nach einem besonderen kulinarischen Erlebnis sucht. Ich komme definitiv wieder!

Simply wonderful. We can only highly recommend it. Top Italian!

We spent New Year's Eve 2024 there. We enjoyed a lovely evening in a pleasant atmosphere and a well-put together 4-course menu. The service staff was very courteous and attentive. The dishes were very well prepared and to the point. Really extremely successful in terms of taste. It was a shame that the quantities of the individual courses were too large. This made it impossible to enjoy the fourth course and dessert. Here we would have been happy about a slightly cheaper per capita price and smaller portions. All in all, it was a successful evening and we would love to come back!

Not very inviting, not very comfortable. Extremely loud and outrageously expensive!

Super quality food, large portions and friendly staff. Had a great evening.

the welcome from the director Daniele is always excellent and warm, the environment is beautiful, elegant and the food is exquisite... Super carbonara!!

Great Location, a bit loud at times, but perfect as it is an italian restaurant. Great food and great service.

Great restaurant, staff and food was exceptionally good. Especially the pasta carbonara stood out. Really recommended if you visit Düsseldorf!

Very tasty meal Very friendly service We will definitely come back

El restaurante me lo recomendó el conserje del hotel. Es un pequeño restaurante íntimo con un ambiente acogedor. Usted tiene visibilidad total de la cocina y el personal es muy acogedor. No tenía una reserva, pero como estaba comiendo solo, pudieron acomodarme. La elección del menú es limitada ( no hay pollo en el menú ) pero lo que usted elige no decepcionará. Tomé el salmón con crema de calabacín y estaba delicioso como era mi postre. Excelente servicio y buena comida

Maandagavond 8 december hier gegeten leuke wandelroute langs de Rijn vanuit de Altstadt naar het restaurant. Zonder reservering kregen we heel behulpzaam toch nog een tafel. Mooie Italiaanse gerechten, goed op smaak, correcte bediening en mooie wijnen! We komen zeker terug!

Questo è uno dei migliori ristoranti italiani in città, ma i piatti sono un po’ troppo saporiti e i prezzi decisamente sopra la media. Consiglierei di cambiare il menù di tanto in tanto…

Slightly smaller but fine restaurant with really nice and courteous service. Very friendly and helpful. Starter (salmon tartare with avocado, burrata) and the bread with olive oil were really tasty. The main course was a sensational carbonara with super crispy pancetta, highly recommended. There wasn't enough left for dessert. All in all, a successful evening with friendly hosts and excellent cuisine

Für mich das beste italienische Restaurant in Düsseldorf. Preis/Leistung hervorragend. Gerade der Mittagstisch ist zu empfehlen für einen spontanen Besuch. Geheimtipp: Cabonara

Überdurchschnittlich gutes Essen zu fairen Preisen bei dieser Qualität. Auch das Auge isst hier mit. Das Personal ist zudem sehr freundlich. Insgesamt passte alles.

Excelente comida y un servicio excepcional! Sabores auténticos y un ambiente cálido hacen del Cla una visita obligada en Dusseldrof. Carta de super vinos : - )

Das Lunch ist immer sehr lecker und preislich sehr fair. Die Lachsnudeln sowie die Garganelli mit Doradenragout ist besonders zu empfehlen.

Ristorante molto Bello servizio top cibo super. Lonconsiglio vivamente. Varta die vini molto assortita. Daniele e Claudio ottimi padroni di casa

Definitely worth a visit. Very high quality food 😊

Burratta for starter, then a NY Strip, and finished with pistachio cheesecake. All delicious.

Da Clà is an authentic and elegant Italian restaurant located directly at the Media Harbor in Düsseldorf. In addition to Italian classics, you can also find well-thought-out new interpretations on the manageable menu. In addition to the great dishes, you can also find an exquisite selection of wines here. The friendly and knowledgeable staff and the beautiful ambience are also important to mention here. This is the second time we have spent a wonderful evening here and we are looking forward to the next time.

Unfortunately, my last visit to this restaurant was extremely disappointing. We were a group of four and paid 320 euros for our dinner. However, instead of a pleasant experience, two of us had food poisoning. We suspect that the fish dishes we ordered were the cause. I would also like to point out hygiene in the kitchen. The kitchen is open to view and we didn't notice the chefs changing their disposable gloves regularly. I am an opponent of the use of such gloves because, according to the regulations, they should be changed before preparing each individual dish. However, it is often the case that employees put on the gloves at the beginning of their shift and wear them until the end without changing, disinfecting or washing them. This not only violates hygiene standards, but also increases the risk of food contamination. Spending 320 euros on dinner and ending up with such disappointment is extremely frustrating. I hope that the restaurant management will take measures to improve hygiene and quality standards so that such incidents are avoided in the future and other guests do not have to experience the same. I recommend being careful when choosing dishes and ensuring compliance with hygiene standards in this restaurant.

Very good food. Strong recommendation.

Sono ritornata al ristorante Da Cla Dusseldorf dopo essere stata nel 2017 per lavoro avendo avuto un'esperienza super positiva. In maniera sorprendente, quest'anno, trovo la cucina di un livello ancora superiore e piacevolmente sorpresa per l'introduzione di piatti nuovi eccezionali ....come la super carbonara! Sono felice di avere a Dusseldorf un punto di riferimento stabile di alta qualita'e grande ospitalita'. Grazie a tutto lo staff per farmi sentire sempre a casa!

Went there yesterday for a small birthday party. Unfortunately, 2 out of 4 guests had an unpleasant night on the toilet and severe stomach pain. It's a shame because everything looked good, but in the end there was probably something wrong.

Ich wollte mit meiner Frau einen schönen Abend verbringen, doch sowas unfreundliches, was wir da erlebt haben, wird mir bestimmt kein zweites Mal passieren. Nie wieder.

Absolute recommendation! Service and food were really very good. Starter bruschetta, classic and with burrata was very tasty. The main course Frutti Di Mare topped the whole thing! Very attentive and friendly treatment of the guests, perfect for a nice evening for two or with the family.

Very good food, great wine and very friendly service!

I thought the food was okay, but I wasn't impressed. Too expensive for what was offered! Service was attentive, but - in contrast to the surrounding restaurants - there was nothing going on.

Every time we come to Düsseldorf we come to Da Clà for dinner, and the quality, service and friendship always leave us wanting to come back

Excellent Italian restaurant run by Italians. Try the Carbonara and the truffle tagliolini. Fair prices for a high quality dinner

Super tasty, attentive service and great ambience

Sono stato a cena con la mia compagna, abbiamo trascorso una piacevolissima serata. Ambiente accogliente, personale molto cordiale e sempre presente in sala. Abbiamo scelto la tartare di tonno, la "Cacio e pepe" rivisitata (su questo piatto eravamo inizialmente molto scettici, ma, dopo averlo assaggiato, ci siamo immediatamente ricreduti, era, a dir poco, squisito!) ed il polpo con crema di patate viola e fonduta di Parmigiano, i piatti che ci ha consigliato il maître ed è stata una scelta azzeccatissima. Ci ritorneremo sicuramente per assaggiare le altre proposte dello Chef!

By far the best Italian restaurant in Düsseldorf, very stylishly furnished, small but nice, with super friendly staff and owner as well as outstandingly good food, always a short short vacation in the Medienhafen - top!!!

Very tasty food, attentive service. Prices completely ok. We'd love to come back.

Wir waren zu zweit bei ca. 30 Grad. 100 % Top italienische Küche, Service und Weinkarte. Wir kommen wieder . Sehr empfehlenswert.

Very good Italian restaurant. Food very authentic. I liked the ambience inside better than outside on the terrace, due to the traffic in the harbor area. Fair price/performance ratio. The sanitary facilities are bright and clean.

Una experiencia muy agradable , lugar familiar y con comida de calidad para pasar un buen rato con amigos o pareja. Excelente servicio muy atentos y educados sin duda alguna volvería al Da cla

This restaurant has become one of our favorite addresses in the Medienhafen over the last year. On every visit, all dishes were absolutely flawless. My standard order is the sesame coated tuna steak. I haven't had a better one, even in well-known Düsseldorf fish restaurants. But the carbonara, especially with truffles, is also recommended. Here you can get it in the Italian original without cream sauce and with guanciale. All in all, the food is worth every cent, even if you have to spend a few cents more.

Professional service and cuisine at Michelin level. We recommend! We were there with our grandma, there is a ramp to the entrance and extremely understanding staff.

Food was super delicious Waiting staff was super friendly

The best food, service and staff! 100% recommended!

Das Restaurant unterscheidet sich stark von den Bildern. Der Ort ist klein. Essen ist diese Preise nie wert. Die Aussicht ist Null. Ich verstehe nicht, warum die Bewertung so hoch ist. Verschwendung von Zeit, Geld und Vergnügen.

very nice tasteful interior. Service very friendly and competent. Caponata to kneel down. Pasta al dente. Prices adequate. Gladly again

It was a perfect match! The service was great and the food was delicious. Absolute recommendation!

Visiting La Cla in Düsseldorf was an absolute treat! The highlight for me was their spaghetti carbonara. It's made the right way with egg yolks, not cream, and it's the best I've ever tasted. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce was rich and delicious. The rest of the menu was also fantastic. The appetizers were tasty and started the meal off right. Everything we ordered was fresh and full of flavor. Plus, the staff at La Cla were super friendly and really attentive. They made us feel welcome and took great care of us. La Cla is a must-visit for amazing Italian food in Düsseldorf. Whether you're local or just passing through, drop by for a meal that you'll want to come back for.

Delicious Italian cuisine and great service! 👌

Very good restaurant, a little bit expensive but worth it in my opinion. Superb service and good food. Recommend to try octopus.

Great food, great ambience and great service (+ the prettiest waitress I've ever seen)

Absolutely exquisite and delicious, tasty food of top quality. Very attentive and courteous service with good advice. Small points of criticism are immediately implemented to your complete satisfaction. The fish platter can or should be shared as there is a lot of high quality fish on it.

An unpleasant restaurant and most importantly the food is not good. They managed to ruin the pasta with lobster twice. 1x too salty, 2x the lobster is out of date. A strong ammonia odor could be smelled. Is that why it was too salty? I had to throw up at home hoping I wouldn't get sick. Never again..

The Italian restaurant has a really pleasant atmosphere and the staff is very personable and friendly, which immediately makes you feel at home. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite meet our expectations in terms of taste.

Well, it deserves 5 stars in all areas without a shadow of a doubt. Mr. Daniele would also deserve six for his level of education and courtesy.

Food: So I ordered some Pasta with Tuna fish. It was so salty, that after 3 bites, I couldn’t eat anymore. Service: one of the staff was nice n friendly, but the other one brought me the wrong drink, I ordered ginger ale and they brought me black tea, and they were insisting too much that they have heard black tea when I ordered my drink. (Ginger ale / schwarzen Tee) I mean what was the big deal? Just laugh it off and take the hot water and the sugar cup and bring me the ginger ale! The teabag wasn’t even inside the hot water.. so not even a costly drink to discuss this much about it! Atmosphere: it was a nice n quiet place. In general: I won’t recommend this restaurant, or at least this food. But for sure I am never going there again. I have taken my next 10 years need of sodium chloride already…

Classy Italian restaurant, friendly service, feeling quite authentic. The have a large wine selection and a good offer of per glas wines to match your dinner. Limited vegetarian offer. Make a reservation if you're eating there over the weekend.

Great food, nice service. Always been very satisfied so far.

Lively and exciting restaurant in the Media Harbor, but I don't really warm to it. Pros: Good ambience, very good menu and wine list, good, although very filling, food. Cons: Not very warm (but professional) service, open wines only upon request and overall prices that are excessive if you take the price-performance ratio as a basis. Try it out and form your own opinion.

Preis/Leistung stimmt hier nicht. Vorspeisensuppe war kalt (wurde korrigiert). Parfait als Nachspeise war steinhart gefroren. Service war neutral, aber nicht freundlich.

High level Italian cuisine. Courteous and fast staff. And in northern Germany this is not a given. Price appropriate for the location

We had a very pleasant evening at this restaurant. We felt welcomed by the staff and during the dinner they were all very serviceminded. We had a fantastic tapas plate for sharing, which we really recommend. 4 different main courses, all tasteful and big portions. All in all a very nice spend evening. To be recommended:)

Fresh, tasty food, and friendly waiting staff

Had a great night with good food & service

Very close to the Neuer Zollhof, the complex of buildings located next to the port and designed by Frank Gehry, architect of the Marqués de Riscal wineries, is a magnificent Italian restaurant that left its mark on us and that we recommend to those who visit Dusseldorf. Served by Daniel, a hospitality professional, elegant in manner, attentive and helpful, who throughout the evening rewarded us with a multitude of details that made us feel special. The music, interior design, exceptional food and special charm of the place did the rest. It was a success to enjoy the cooking and the conversation.

Fantastic, original italian food and an amazing service in one of the most beautiful spots of the city. A restaurant Not to miss in Düsseldorf!

Excellent food and wine. I very highly recommend eating here if you are in Duesseldorf.

The dishes are very appetizingly prepared and taste very good. Comfortable atmosphere and very friendly, attentive staff. Simply put: go and enjoy.

Good food good wine and proper service the only negative things it was too noisy

Beste Carbonara, sehr netter Service

Ein schönes Restaurant mit tollem Ambiente, sehr netten Personal und gutem Essen. Die Mittagskarte bietet eine Auswahl an Speisen, die nicht so hochpreisig sind. Dieses Restaurant lädt zum Verweilen und Wiederkommen ein. Empfehlenswert!

Wholly recommend this restaurant to anybody in Düsseldorf - spectacular food with clearly high quality ingredients served by lovely, attentive staff. We had an amazing night!

Goed restaurant met 2 minpunten; de geur van de keuken die in je kleren trekt en de bediening was gisteren meer met zichzelf bezig dan met de gasten. Water vergeten en na het hoofdgerecht kregen we geen aandacht meer. Jammer want onaardig waren de 2 meisjes niet.

Ambiente: zweitrangig, kleine Gaststätte in den Schadow-Arkaden, gut zu sitzen und die Leute beobachten.....

Schönes, gehobeneres Restaurant mit tollem Service und ganz hervorragender Fettuccine Carbonara! Am Donnerstagmittag war das Restaurant gut besucht. Wir wurden sofort bedient. Die Getränke und Vorspeisen wurden schnell serviert, doch auf die Pasta mussten wir recht lange warten (ca. 45 min). Möglicherweise nur ein Einzelfall. Den guten Service kann ich aber nur betonen: Ein Kellner warf ausversehen mein Glas um, sodass es zerbrach. Er brachte aber sofort ein neues Glas und eine neue Flasche Wasser :) Schön finde ich, dass man von den Tischen aus die Köche beim Servieren der Speisen sehen kann. Allerdings riecht man nach dem Restaurantbesuch auch ein wenig nach dem Essen. Die Fettuccine Carbonara war sehr lecker - vor allem der Speck darin. Die Portion sieht zwar klein aus, ist aber sättigend. Definitiv zu empfehlen! Die Tagliolini Trüffel Parmesanfondue waren auch köstlich. Aber die Carbonara ist weiterhin mein Favorit!

Very nice service. Most of the dishes are tasty however tuna steak I get was extremely salty. Sadly it is too loud in there to speak comfortably.

wunderbare restaurant, mit gemuetliche aussen bereich , ruhig, grossartige meue, kleine aber sehr feine karte, thunfisch tatar ist eine absolute muss , due bedienung ist sehr freundlich, sehr gute auswahl an weinen. komme gerne wieder hin, virher unbediengt reaervieren.

Ein absoluter Traum - das ist definitiv ein authentischer Italiener, bei dem man nicht enttäuscht wird. Absolut was für Kenner. Das Personal ist auch immer freundlich und sehr professionell! Es ist auf jeden Fall einer meiner Lieblingsrestaurants

It is very good, their tuna sashimi is incredible, my girlfriend ordered a strip loin and it was wonderful, the staff's attention is excellent, I recommend it 100%, I congratulate their chef and waiters

A Cla’ ( because I suppose you are roman, having seen the name of the restaurant and the Jersey of Francesco Totti in the basement), nun ce semo proprio…. Now, or people eating in your restaurant don’t know Italian cuisine or we just had a bad night. You tell me. When we ordered our meal, first problems came up. Pappardelle with tomatoes and fillet tips weren’t available and rigatoni were proposed. Rigatoni? Then we asked for some risotto as indicated in the menu section “ pasta e risotti”. There wasn’t any. Wine by the glass, practically there is no choice. Cocktails almost the same. Anyway, we ordered tomato soup, vitello tonnato, tagliatelle ( yes, at the end a long pasta was found) with tomatoes and fillet tips, linguine all’ astice and pasta alla norma. Tomato soup and vitello tonnato were acceptable, nothing spectacular ( considering te prices) but acceptable. Linguine all’ astice were good ( not much astice for a dish of pasta for 32,00 Euros), the other two pastas a true disaster. A disproportionate use of tomatoes in both. The fettuccine were made with tomato sauce and not with cherry tomatoes as the recipe would indicate. Result was piastra swimming in tomato sauce with tasteless fillet tips. Same goes for the other pasta that betrays the original recipe with something incredibly wrong. Orecchiette pasta? So, a Puglia pasta for a Sicilian dish that foresees sedani or at least rigatoni? That’s a blue pencil mistake. I appreciated the little crostata offered for my bday. Yes, because it was my bday and the dinner wasn’t for sure a memorable one. A Cla’, famme sape’.
