Don Giovanni Leipzig in Leipzig

I am positively surprised by this hotel! I would wish for everyone everywhere! 100% hospitality, very emphatic. A young-at-heart, older, smart, attractive and lovely lady showed me my room, which is typically Italian furnished. The inner courtyard, the restaurant is awesome! You feel Italy and think you are right in the middle of it, even though you are in Leipzig. Unfortunately it is not barrier-free, just for your information, as there are stairs. A warm atmosphere in general, the best reception I've ever had! Here you experience Italy, here you taste Italy. Breakfast starts at 8:30 a.m., for early risers...go jogging or have a relaxing morning😉. I can experience breakfast tomorrow and then continue writing!

Regarding the restaurant, we were seven people with reservations. The ambience is great, the food is very, very good (even gluten-free pizzas). So far, so good: After ordering a drink after the main meal, we were ignored by the staff for half an hour (!!). That doesn't work at all. We all sat for a long time with empty glasses and might have wanted to order desserts in addition to drinks. So we went to the counter, paid and left. Too bad.

We booked a cooking course here at the Don Giovanni Restaurant with dear friends and were there last Sunday. That was really great!! We prepared (almost) all the ingredients under the expert guidance of chef Marilu and were given a wonderful explanation of how and why certain dishes are prepared. The tips alone for a successful bruschetta were worth their weight in gold and how to distinguish good from bad olive oil gave us all an “aha”. The food was delicious and we enjoyed it in the cozy atmosphere of the restaurant. A real recommendation for everyone who wants to eat delicious food and learn something worth knowing about Italian cuisine in an entertaining way.

Very tasty food and nice staff. We always like to come back.

Very tasty food, super nice and courteous staff. We'd love to come back :D

Great restaurant and best Italian cuisine

Everything ok, gladly again! The Menu2 cooking course with the finest ingredients was a highlight that we remember fondly. Even little things like the olive oil test gave us valuable insights.

I was a guest at Don Giovanni from Friday to Saturday. I had a single room. WiFi is offered but unfortunately I had no reception in my room. The description offers “free parking and free street parking.” The hotel's own parking space still cost €9.50. Whether someone likes the ambience or not is ultimately always a matter of taste. Facts offered that do not correspond to this speak for themselves. The room was clean, the food was good and the breakfast was also very satisfactory. I give the three stars precisely because what is offered and what is available does not match. Either keep your promises or describe them in more detail - unambiguously - or just leave them out. The location - I was in Leipzig for one night on business - was very good for me. I found out about day Don Giovanni's website in advance and compared it with others. Unfortunately, these two points were not correct. Please work on it

Very good food and service. The staff is always nice, especially to the children. It's always a joy to see Grandma too!

Wir hatten die Reservierung an einem späteren Tag abgegeben. Das Team von Don Giovanni war jedoch an einem Freitag Abend so flexibel, dass sie uns kurzfristig einen Tusch für 6 Personen organisiert haben. Da Essen war exzellent die Pizzen ausgezeichnet. Das Don Giovanni ein Muss bei einem Leipzig Aufenthalt

Schon beim Reinkommen etwas schwierig: der Kellner, kein Italiener, am Empfang war der deutschen Sprache nicht mächtig! Der Kollege, der uns an den Tisch führte, hatte nicht gehört, dass nicht alle angekündigten Gäste mitkommen konnten und nahm die Bestellung erst nach Aufforderung auf - kann passieren! Der Wein -Nero d‘Avola- war seinen Preis wert! Die Vorspeisen : Tomatensuppe war gut aber nicht richtig warm! Beim Vitello Tonnato war das Vitello gut, das Tonnato schmeckte nicht ausreichend nach Thunfisch und Kapern, zu sehr nach Mayonnaise! Dann warteten wir auf die Hauptgerichte - im kühlen Gastraum und zogen, wie auch andere Gäste (etwas mehr als halb besetzt) die Jacken an - und warteten und warteten! Mein Essen -Wildschweinkeule mit Rotkraut und Klösen- war auf dem großen Teller etwas verloren! Leider war der erste Bissen Kloß und Fleisch zu kalt - gerade mal noch lauwarm. Habs zurückgehen lassen. Was auch freundlich angenommen wurde und versichert, dass es neu zubereitet wird! War dann auch gut. Parallel dazu hatte unser Freund sich auch über seine Calzone beschwert, da auch diese nur lauwarm war. Hatte aber Hunger und ass zwei drittel auf, ließ den Rest zurück gehen weil dann kalt! Schade!

Wir wollten mit Freunden gemütlich zu Abend essen und waren um 19:30 Uhr nicht die einzigen Gäste. Es schien gemütlich, vielleicht etwas zu viel Deko, aber das ist Geschmackssache. Musik lief und die Kellnerin nahm die Wünsche entgegen, die Lieferung dauerte. Das Essen kam, die Lasagne war mega klein und schmeckte säuerlich und das Hackfleisch war kaum zu finden. Die Pizzen waren ok. Gehen 20:30 Uhr verliesen die restlichen Gäste das Restaurant, die Musik ging aus und wir fühlten uns ulkig...sollten wir jetzt gehen? Auf Nachfrage wurde die Musik wieder angemacht uns aber zu verstehen gegeben, dass man dann schließen wolle. Ca. 21:00 Uhr löschte manum uns herum das Licht, die Türen wurden verriegelt und nach dem Bezahlen bat man uns, den letzten Ausgang zu nutzen. Ich glaube, man sieht uns hier nicht wieder. Schade, denn wir fahren sehr gern früher hier, als es noch an Illaienische Gastfreundschaft erinnerte...

Great family-run hotel with nice rooms

We spontaneously went to eat there as a couple. The food was very good and tasty. Friendly service always asked if everything was ok. Pizza and pasta very tasty. Tiramisu dessert is a dream. During the meal we had a nice chat with the Grand Dame and later when we left there was a short conversation about the ambience and the smoking room. We recommend. Always a pleasure when you are in Leipzig.

We were there very spontaneously without a reservation after years, at first they didn't want us there without a reservation. Then we were let in and lo and behold everything was empty. The service was okay, but the food was, like years ago, very little and cold. But well, it still seems to be going well.

I can't say anything about the hotel, but the food in the restaurant is excellent and the service is very good. Really Italian in terms of both the atmosphere and the food (keyword: carbonara without cream, as it should be!) Only recommended!

Great restaurant, very lovingly decorated and top food at a very reasonable price. Gladly again and again!

Well, we were there 2 years ago and stayed for 2 nights. It was really nice, from the room to the breakfast. Nice staff, everything was perfect. But this time, we were very disappointed. The shower head in the room was broken and the toilet service for the sink didn't work for us. The worst was the breakfast. €25 per breakfast for 2 people. We thought we were falling from faith. See picture. There wasn't anything else. The sausage was rancid and had probably been sitting for a while. We only had one cup of coffee. And not to mention the construction site in front of the door. Unfortunately we had no information about the construction site when we made our reservation. We were really looking forward to the hotel because we had a good experience. But this time it was a disaster. It's a shame, the atmosphere in the inner courtyard is really great.

We stayed here in the summer of 2022 when I was visiting to have a major surgery in Dusseldorf (I’m from the USA) when we checked in here we were very stressed and anxious. The staff did everything they could to make a short stay there (until I left for surgery) incredible! They helped us get our lost luggage back from the airlines, set up a romantic dinner for me and my husband to help us unwind a little, and so much more! The food was also delicious as well! Highly recommend :)

We had dinner in the restaurant. It looks inconspicuous from the outside, but the ambience and interior are wonderfully designed. The waiter was very accommodating. We had previously been in Italy for a week and wanted to enjoy some Italian food at the end of our vacation. And that is an absolute pleasure here. We'd love to come back

We pre-ordered and everything worked out great! The staff is very friendly and nice. The food was very tasty and highly recommended. The ambience was very nice and it is really well decorated. Prices are reasonable. So we recommend a visit!!! We will come back in any case.

The restaurant has improved tremendously since he got new servers. The quality of service was previously extremely poor. Now we like to go there again, also because the question for feedback sounds honest again :) The food is sometimes good and sometimes average. But good service definitely makes up for that ;)

Rating restaurant: Nice restaurant and friendly staff. Delicious and large gluten-free selection. All pizza and pasta dishes can currently be ordered contamination-free for an additional charge of €4. I was super satisfied and would love to come back.

The hotel is beautifully decorated with lots of small details without being kitschy. The restaurant was the first Italian to open in Leipzig after reunification. The daughter now runs the hotel and the restaurant. We really enjoyed our stay.

“Tra il dire e il fare c’è di mezzo il mare” (Between saying and doing lies the sea) says an Italian proverb, the same here.... My family and I have known Don Giovanni for a long time and unfortunately I have to say: it is no longer what it used to be. It used to be as promised on the website (... and spoil you in our stylish rooms with only the best of Italian cuisine... the chef presents you with dishes using only high-quality Italian seasonal products.) Today was either An assistant cook is at work, or there is other staff in the kitchen... The ingredients are still of high quality, but unfortunately very poorly prepared. The wild garlic risotto from the daily menu contained more wild garlic than rice and had the consistency of sushi rice. Furthermore, the cook was obviously in love with several women... It was almost impossible to eat because of the salt. Asparagus au gratin as a starter... top in terms of taste and seasoning, unfortunately the asparagus had the consistency of kohlrabi, it was actually raw. This was noted by the waiter and he promised improvement. The entrecôte with asparagus and rosemary potatoes that we ordered came and again the asparagus was practically not cooked. The meat was very good, but no questions were asked about the degree of doneness. An absolute no-go for a restaurant in a hotel. The potatoes were only lukewarm and pretty wrinkly; they had obviously been lying around for a long time. All of this for around 35 euros..... is clearly not a reasonable price-performance ratio. The CARPACCIO TRADIZIONALE had obviously been cut for a long time and the meat juice was already collecting on the plate. In the case of POLLO ALLA GRIGLIA, the mushrooms were so salty that unfortunately they had to stay on the plate. The same problem with the potatoes as with the entrecôte. The children present all had pizza. Unfortunately, this was the only one that was outstandingly good. However, the pizza was forgotten and only brought when asked. The children were the last to get their food. Unfortunately, the salami that was on the salami pizza still had the peel on it... Even in a restaurant that wants to have such a claim, it's an absolute absurdity. A Pizza Funghi was completely forgotten and then had to be taken away. The person who ordered this could not dine with the other guests. Regarding the ambience, it is typical Don Giovanni, actually very nice. Unfortunately, the beautiful glass ceiling of the restaurant was covered with green-blue cloths and all the guests looked as if they were sick, a little green in the face. It should be said that the waitresses and waiters were without exception very nice, friendly and accommodating. Unfortunately, a young colleague smelled strongly of sweat, which is not necessarily nice when he serves food. But he was nice. Conclusion: "Dove c'è luce, c'é anchore ombra" - Where there is light, there is also shadow unfortunately unfortunately the quality has deteriorated very much and can no longer be compared with previous visits. I really hope that the team manages to build on its old quality, otherwise in the long term I won't see any sun on the horizon, just rain clouds... This is the fabric of your fortune Addendum to the owner's answer: I assure you that my information is not incorrect. I also think it's a real shame that the owner reacts to criticism like a petulant child instead of using it as an opportunity to change something.

I can't say anything about the rooms, we visited the restaurant (spontaneously without a reservation on a Saturday evening). Incredibly tasty, absolute recommendation. Great and quick service, very nice boss. The next time you visit Leipzig, (at least) one meal in Don Giovanni's restaurant is definitely on the list.

In mid-May we booked a cooking course as a team event at Ristorante Don Giovanni. We were warmly welcomed by the Italian chef Marilu Natale and then assigned to chopping, stirring and kneading. Charmingly but firmly, she guided us through the preparation of the three courses, which also tasted delicious thanks to clear instructions and plenty of good olive oil. At the same time, we learned all sorts of interesting things about Italian culture, original ingredients, the process in the kitchen and that the best way to buy olive oil is in a 5-liter canister directly in Italy. We would like to thank you for the great evening and look forward to coming back. :)

Food was top, service trained and attentive. Small bread basket would have been nice.

I can't say anything about the hotel itself. We ate with the family in the restaurant like every year...

A review can only be given for the restaurant - but this restaurant is a real asset to the south-west of Leipzig. The food tastes great, the bruschetta and pizzas are super tasty. Although the prices are a little higher than what you're used to, the quality of the food, the welcoming atmosphere and the friendliness of the staff make up for it all! We would love to come back!

I can only rate the restaurant. Rather inconspicuous from the outside, but inside it is large and very, very beautiful. The service was very nice and the food was delicious. We were very excited and would love to come back. Il miglior ristorante. Greetings from table 82 on May 9th. to Ariana😀

I can only rate the restaurant. Seeming inconspicuous and small from the outside. But inside it's big and very, very beautiful. I fell in love. The service was very nice and the food was delicious. We were very excited and would love to come back. Many greetings from table 82 today 😀

Thank you very much for the wonderful evening. We went to the cooking class as a handball team. We really learned a lot and definitely had a lot of fun. Plus it was absolutely delicious😋. I can only recommend the cooking course to everyone.

Very good, completely satisfied. ☺️

Wir hatten einen Kochkurs gebucht. Der Abend war ein voller Erfolg. Großartiges Menü, Tolle Köchin und Moderatorin, Personal gesamt super freundlich . Vielen lieben Dank für den tollen Abend, immer wieder gerne

Everything was fine, except for the parking situation... a disaster!

Rating for restaurant. I want to say thanks ! A spontaneous thought, a call and we got 2 places. Fast service, very friendly to your guests. My special request was also responded to. We enjoyed it very much. Any time. We are very happy to recommend Don Giovanni.

Well, I've known the restaurant for several years now, and unfortunately I have to say that it has fallen into disrepair. A candlelight dinner with 2 paper flowers in a glass, a candle on the table, and a buffet costing €10.00 is quite a feat. The food no longer tastes like it used to, the asparagus was still half raw and the creme brulee in the middle was ice cold. The ambience was still a dream, but unfortunately the quality was very poor. Too bad.

The toilet didn’t lock and the door was see-through. 3/10”

Great restaurant can only be recommended

Great cooking class...here we really cook with a lot of love! Great tips for at home. Absolute recommendation!

Were on April 14th. The cooking class was very nice. Detailed explanation, nice atmosphere. I can only recommend it.

I've been there every now and then over the years. This time I was really surprised at the price for less and less food. A pity. Painting supplies for children and the ambience itself were positive, even if it may seem overloaded here and there.

Kind regards to the lovely dad and the very nice colleague from breakfast this morning🙏🤣It was beautiful as always, room 8 was so pretty and the food last night was delicious! We'll be back, like every year!🙏🙏😇

Overall, unfortunately not a recommendation. Positive: atmosphere and rooms Negative: Operation and service; First we waited forever for the food, then the main course came while we were still having the starter and we hadn't even finished our pizza when we asked for dessert. A no-go! The pizza was also tasteless and the ice cream wasn't thawed properly. And at proud prices...

We were here for dinner today (March 31, 2024) with 5 people. The food was, as always, very tasty and the staff was very friendly. We always enjoy going here. Just a good Italian restaurant. 👍

Rating is for the restaurant because we were not in the hotel premises. Went there spontaneously for dinner this evening. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. The food is very well prepared and tastes fantastic. The portion size is just right so everyone gets full. The price is a little more expensive than average, but it is also an experience in terms of the furnishings, the atmosphere and the food on offer. Therefore highly recommended!

We had dinner there on a Saturday evening. Reservation was super easy via Open Table, just as you would expect. We were warmly welcomed and had a nice, comfortable table. The order came very quickly and it tasted really good. I can recommend the restaurant to everyone. There is also enough space for larger family celebrations and groups.

Es war nicht lecker und das Personal unfreundlich. Etwas klar war es auch. Im Großen und Ganzen kann ich es einfach nicht weiter empfehlen .

I've never had Italian food as bad as here Food arrived after 1/1/2 hours and was cold, portions small and overpriced. There was no spices for seasoning. We were placed next to the toilets where the smell dominated. But the service staff were all nice

I had the opportunity to use the hotel and restaurant. At the beginning I was a bit overwhelmed by what I thought was a somewhat playful atmosphere. But as the process progressed, I had to admit to myself that everything seemed quite authentic. Details of the Italian lifestyle are hidden everywhere and you can easily escape from everyday life with the right music in the restaurant. The staff is very committed.

Very nicely done. Maybe the look of the ceiling is getting old. The most beautiful area is the entrance,...Super Italian. The food is also great. Can be recommended. VG

Super nice with a live violinist, very good service and child-friendly. Grandma entertained us very well. 😉

We celebrated our son's completion of his education with dinner. The restaurant was busy on Saturday evening, but there were enough and very friendly staff at the start... so the waiting times for food and drinks were completely ok. The starters and main courses were beautifully presented and tasted very good. So overall a very nice evening, I'd love to do it again

I had an excellent meal in the restaurant on February 4, 2024 and was very surprised by the lovingly furnished hotel room. All in all, a very good price-performance ratio for this beautiful ambience. I just had to wait a bit for service, which was probably due to the large crowd. A visit to this restaurant and hotel is therefore highly recommended.

Perfect, the staffs are amazing and super polite and friendly! The food was legit the best!!!

On January 27th, 2024, my girlfriend and I had the 4-course gourmet candlelight dinner. - Organizational matters: Exactly a week before this date, we made a reservation by phone and asked whether there were still places available. The lady was really very friendly and asked what the dinner was for. In our case it was the anniversary, which was later lovingly taken into account at the meal by creating a heart with the respective number on our plates. Arriving at the agreed time that day, we were then taken to our table. - Ambience: When you arrive in the main room, you almost get the feeling of being on holiday. The floor made of stone slabs, plants sprouting on the sides, some stretching along the ceiling and then of course a gigantic fountain with horses in the back of the restaurant create a very special atmosphere. The music in the background wasn't too loud and therefore not intrusive. Everything seemed very clean and well maintained. When we arrived at the table, which was decorated with fresh roses, a candle was lit and we were given a menu for the candlelight dinner we had ordered. The toilets were also clean and well maintained. There was a piece of paper on the floor, but it shouldn't be the restaurant's job to check every guest to see if they know how to behave there. There were trash cans. ;) - Eat: The food was fabulous. In terms of quantity, the portions were just right. In this case it was an advantage that the main courses were also a little smaller so that there was still room for the starter and dessert. We didn't have to wait long for our food either. The time in between was very pleasant. It wasn't too hot, so you could enjoy it straight away. But here too it wouldn't have been a problem to wait until they had cooled down. After all, it was freshly prepared. The combination of the different dishes went together fabulously. You could taste individual spices well. Since tastes are different, it makes little sense to describe this in more detail. You should think about what kind of food you are going to order beforehand. In the end, our expectations were definitely exceeded. We were very satisfied and full too. - Service/operation: Whether it was a waitress or someone from the kitchen who brought us our food, they were all friendly. We were also asked at comfortable intervals whether we were satisfied or whether we wanted something more to drink. Even towards the end it was easily possible to signal with eye contact that we would like to pay. A waitress was also nice enough to take a picture of the two of us. In the end it was quite full and we were still asked if everything was OK with the food. Again, praise at this point. - Conclusion: Because of our satisfaction, there was of course a tip and we went home more than satisfied with a nice memory of that day. In our opinion the price was appropriate for the effort involved. Many thanks at this point to the entire Don Giovanni team from Leipzig. Gladly again - Alex & Sarah

I went there with my family to eat in a nice restaurant. Pizza didn't blow your mind, nothing special I've had much better ones, quite bland

The cooking class was very good. Informative, funny, tasty and very educational. Highly recommended!

Yesterday was a wonderful birthday evening including a little surprise for my girlfriend. The service was very friendly and the atmosphere was wonderful. The food was of course the highlight, meat cooked to perfection and, above all, a menu that went beyond the usual standard Italian offerings. Wasn't the last visit.

Linh Chi was particularly great for us today. Thank you very much Linh 🥰 The food, the ambience… We can recommend everything 🥂

Ganz toller Abend und super Zimmer.Besonderes Ambiente. Besonders war die Junior Chefin Marilu. Vielen Dank für den tollen Abend und das grandiose Essen! Vielen Dank auch an ganze Team! Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

Rarely have I eaten such bad “Italian” food. No bread basket, no olive oil/balsamic vinegar with the salad. The children's pizza was okay but neither the "original" carbonara nor the "tagliatelle" with "truffles" had any taste. No towels in the toilet, the disinfectant dispenser is empty. The waitresses tried very hard, that should at least be praised. For us, never again...

Freundliches, kompetentes Personal. Ariane war unsere sehr nette Bedienung mit einem unbeschreiblichen Charme. Vielen Dank für den schönen Abend bei Ihnen.

Nicht so lecker - mal milde ausgedrückt - und das Schwimmbad-Ambiente hat es auch nicht besser gemacht. Service war in Ordnung.

Gestern das erste mal dort essen gewesen und was soll ich sagen? Ich liebe das Ambiente und das Essen war wirklich gut! Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich und es ging auch alles relativ schnell. Ich für meinen Teil komme definitiv wieder.

Als Teilnehmerin an einem italienischen Kochkurs anlässlich einer Firmenweihnachtsfeier war ich gestern erstmalig im Don Giovanni. Es war ein sehr gelungener Abend - dank der vorzüglichen kulinarischen Unterweisung, der freundlichen Bedienung und dem sehr schmackhafte Essen. Ein tolles Ambiente und ein sehr gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis - meine absolute Empfehlung für diese gastronomische Perle im Südwesten der Stadt Leipzig.

Sehr schönes Ambiente,super nettes Personal und sehr gutes Essen!!

Tolles Zimmer, direkt unterm Dach

Finde diesen Ort vom aussehen her ganz entsprechend, die Dekoration waren ganz entzückt. Jedoch war das Essen nicht so beeindruckend, ich hatte eine Lasagne bestellt und als ich sie bekommen habe kam die erste Enttäuschung. Ich habe sehr geringen Käse gesehen, bis zu gar keiner Creme und zu viel Tomaten Soße. Fand ich sehr schade obwohl das Restaurant ganz Kinderfreundlich ist.

Sehr nettes Personal und sehr leckeres Essen :)

Sehr nette Mitarbeiterin Linh Chi , auch das Ambiente ist sehr empfehlenswert und gemütlich und die Preise sind ebenfalls gut

Leider unschönes Lokal, Als wir ankamen war unsere zuvor bestätigte Reservierung verschwunden, dann bekamen wir das falsche Essen. Nachdem wir das bestellte bekamen mussten wir feststellen, dass das Essen Bistroqualität hatte. Das gesamte Menü war für die Qualität völlig überteuert, allerdings sind die Räumlichkeiten und das Ambiente sehr schön. Auf Kritik würde garnicht eingegangen

Ich liebe die Atmosphäre in diesem Restaurant. Das Essen hält was es verspricht- die ganze Familie war wie immer begeistert. Absolutes Highlight war unsere Bedienung. Frau Chi. Alle unsere Wünsche wurden von ihr sofort und mit einem Lächeln erfüllt. Die ganze Familie hat sich sehr wohl gefühlt. Dankeschön!

Super Ambiente, große Auswahl in der Speisekarte, freundliche Bedienung, leckeres Essen

Mit abstand das beste Italienische Restaurant. Wir kommen gerne hier her. Die Meditaerane Atmosphäre im Wintergarten mit viel Grün und Brunnen ist einmalig. Auch einen Geburtstag sollte man hier unbedingt erlebt haben ;)

Vielen Dank für die Einführung in die Geheimnisse der (Süd !-)italienischen Kochkunst und das leckere Essen! Im Rahmen unseres Kochkurses durften wir viel lernen, ausprobieren, fragen, verkosten und wurden jederzeit sehr gut betreut!

Ресторан Don Giovanni — великолепное место, где итальянская атмосфера и роскошный интерьер создают удивительный опыт. При входе в ресторан вас встречает потрясающий итальянский стиль, который погружает в атмосферу страстного Южного Средиземноморья. Особенно впечатляющим является центральный фонтан, ставший душой этого заведения. Завораживающий звук воды и утонченный дизайн создают уютное место для ужина в тени старинных аркад. К сожалению, великолепное впечатление от интерьера немного омрачается кулинарным опытом. Пицца, несомненно, хорошо приготовлена, но качество некоторых морепродуктов оставляет желать лучшего. Видимо, в процессе приготовления не уделяется достаточного внимания свежести ингредиентов. Тем не менее, обслуживание замечательное, персонал приветлив и готов предложить рекомендации. Несмотря на небольшие недостатки в кулинарии, ресторан Don Giovanni всё равно оставляет послевкусие итальянской страсти и является прекрасным местом для тех, кто ценит атмосферу итальянского вкуса в самом сердце Лейпцига.

Ein freundlicher persönlicher Empfang , romantische Atmosphäre ,aufmerksame Bedienung, gutes Preis Leistungs- Verhältnis und richtig tolle italienische Atmosphäre. Wir kommen gern wieder. Diana aus Dresden und Ruth aus Aschaffenburg

The food was far from the promises of the menu. The meat came without side dishes with some salad without sauce, the bread had to be paid extra. We were just in Florence and can compare, please keep away from this restaurant

We have now eaten at this restaurant several times with our family. We have been hugely impressed with the warmth of the reception and the promptness of service. The interior of the restaurant is absolutely unique and there is always something new to notice. Some of the family were very taken with the pet rabbits who are in a cage in the dining area. Excellent value for money, we will definitely go again.

Great food and Great wines!! The service was perfect and The food came fast! The food was value for money and The taste was great! A truly Traditional italian restaurant!

We ate here on Mothers day last week. We live not far but had never been before, so gave it a shot. We arrived about 6 pm and the restaurant was not too busy. We wanted to sit outside and got guided to a great seat on the terrace. All the staff were lovely and provided excellent service. The food was great, very fresh and tasty, and served quickly without fuss. The Mrs wine was a bit off, or not what she ordered and this was replaced without a problem. The restaurant caters great for families and even has a rabbit hutch with two bunnies in the outside area. our 3 year old loved this, and keeps asking to go back so she can take the bunnies some carrots. The owner's mother spent some time talking with child about the bunnies, which was very nice of her. Overall, outstanding and we will be back.

So you have had lasagna in New York or Rome or your local Italian Restaurant - but that means you haven't had the best lasagna experience ever! First book your ticket to Leipzig then book or turn up at Don Giovanni 's Restaurant in Swartzestrasse 1 - 3 to find that lasagna that is made in Italian heaven. Except heaven is in Leipzig!! The lasagna recipe is from Marilu's Italian Grandmother who also taught her how to make a tiramisu supreme! Bari + Leipzig = Eating Nirvana! Customer service is top class. Ambiance enhanced the eating experience. All in all worth finding the Restaurant after all those Museums close! PS Finish off with Marilu's Grandfather's wine - Primitivo

We slept here and had dinner in this restaurant twice. Great italian food, well cooked! Pizzas are fresh, thin bottoms from the oven. Other dishes, meat and fish are well cooked very tasty and good portions. They have a great selection of wines but serve beers as well. Definitely eat here!

The ambiance is excellent, the menu is typical Italian, and the service is good. However, on a Saturday night it took over 2 hours to get our food. This is the second time I was here and refrained from writing a negative review based on only one experience but twice is deserving. I really love the decor and the fountain is very cool. The restaurant including the bathrooms are clean. I just cannot believe how long it takes to get your order. They need to either expand the kitchen or reduce the size if they cannot handle a full ding room. At least the food was very good, but the wait was extreme!! Twice even!
