eatalio Dortmund in Dortmund

Very rich buffet. Very attentive staff. The lady in our area was especially very nice. Come again.

Very large selection for young and old, something for everyone. And the food tastes really good. The location the “old prism” in a beautiful Italian style

Food still tastes very good. It is also beautifully presented. The service staff was very friendly and accommodating. The ambience is very nice, it invites you to linger.

We were there for the first time yesterday. Overall we were very satisfied. A good selection of dishes with something for everyone.

We were very surprised and very satisfied with everything, food was delicious, large selection of everything, nice and friendly staff, very unusual place, but also very interesting and beautiful, we can recommend it and would love to come back 👍

The ambience exudes a charming touch of Italy, and the service was consistently friendly and attentive. In terms of taste, the food was solid, but unfortunately the selection was very limited for the price I had to pay - especially for me as a fan of vegan dishes. Most of the pasta variations had meat, which to be honest disappointed me. I would have liked there to be at least simple alternatives like penne with tomato sauce or cheese cream sauce. A real highlight, however, were the truffle pasta🍝 — they were really delicious and the portion was absolutely appropriate Nevertheless, the price-performance ratio leaves a lot to be desired. For that price, I might even have gotten a flat rate for drinks in other restaurants. All in all, it was an expensive experience, especially for a Friday evening.

A generous selection of Italian dishes. They offer pizza, pasta, burgers, fish, seafood, meat, and vegetarian dishes. The antipasti were varied and excellent. The main courses were also delicious and varied. The service was very good and friendly. The price is quite high at €36.90 per person (March 2025). Children under 12 eat less here.

Price/performance top. Very attentive, friendly service and top food We would be happy to come back

It was my first time here and ever at an Italian buffet. Were here on a Saturday evening. I was absolutely thrilled with this evening. I was there with my daughter and we feasted extensively for a good 3 hours. In my opinion there is something for everyone. Whether you're a meat eater or not. There is a plentiful selection of starters. Almost countless main courses and fantastic desserts. As I said, we are absolutely thrilled. Likewise from the location. Is a former factory building. Very simply but very originally furnished. The service is absolutely impeccable. Very friendly, numerous and quick. The used plates are always cleared away immediately. I have now read that there are other buffet locations for other styles such as Greek, American and Spanish. I'll definitely try one or the other at some point, but at least I'll come back here to Eatalio.

Super pleasant atmosphere. Great buffet. The service is excellent. I'd be happy to come back again.

great and very cozy and pleasant place

Very good. Further recommended.

Good food and great selection in an industrial setting. Value for money is good, I'll definitely be back.

It's OK but a few years ago it was much better and of higher quality

We were four adults and two children. The buffet was plentiful – a large selection, even for vegetarians, so we couldn't try everything. We were there on a Friday evening, and they also offered steak! It's also very suitable for parties (e.g., Christmas)!

Great selection, very tasty Gladly again

Highly recommended, very varied food Staff very nice Ambiance 😀 excellent

We were quickly assigned a place, probably only because we had reserved. The first round of drinks were served quickly. It is a very loud and hectic atmosphere, some guests stretched so much that they were lying with their arms on the table with us. When the buffet has been refilled, you are almost run over by the staff and their trolleys. The second round of drinks took ages to arrive as there was no staff available. Most of the dishes only tasted like garlic or were swimming in a cream sauce. For the fact that this restaurant was so advertised, it was a pure disappointment. Apart from the fact that at €60 per person with a drink it is very expensive for the quality offered.

Food really top, service friendly and attentive. I just found the commotion and noise to be a bit annoying, but that's the case in all the buffet restaurants I know. Absolute recommendation 👍🏼

Staff tend to be more self-absorbed

Great food, very nice and attentive staff, but I personally don't like the commotion and noise of a buffet restaurant. Nevertheless, I can recommend this

It was my first time there and I really liked everything. The staff from service to the chefs were very kind and nice. It's definitely worth it!

Rich buffet with delicious dishes. 😋 If you like it relaxed and informal, you're in good hands here.

Very, very tasty and high quality food considering that it is a buffet. I'd love to come back! :)

Super large selection of delicious dishes. Absolutely friendly staff... always happy again

There is actually a good intention behind it! You can tell that they are making an effort in terms of food technology, exceptional, sometimes high-quality food is offered here in buffet form! The price is debatable! Children up to 12 half price over €18...well, what's a 13, 14, 15 year old more? Furthermore, in my opinion €36 (over 12) is slightly to moderately excessive, although a 0.5 hövels costs over €5! Furthermore, I found it unfriendly to completely block the parking lot directly in front of the door and to distribute guests to surrounding parking spaces without being informed! Anyone can expect an 8-minute walk, but this should be pointed out on the website in advance! When we were led to our table, there was another 2 minute walk and countless stairs and meters of elevation, so that when you climbed to your seat you were already wondering how you were ever going to get your food from the buffet below warm to your table! Below ok, above borderline reasonable in my opinion! Everything was delicious and fresh and obviously prepared with a lot of dedication. Ultimately, I would eat there again, but that said, it requires a little more sensitivity!

Pleasant atmosphere, very tasty food and friendly staff. We were served quickly. The food was hot at all times and there was a huge selection. We were here for the first time and would love to come back.

Not too loud despite a lot of guests. Very tasty food, gigantic selection.

We can definitely recommend it highly ❣️ our favorite Italian 🌟✨️🍷 is super delicious!!!! And very friendly, polite staff ❗️❗️❗️❗️

The store is large, but unfortunately far too crowded. When we were there we had to wait about 30 minutes for our drink order - that's just too long. The atmosphere also seemed hectic and it seemed as if the chefs had little desire to work. The shrimp counter was particularly disappointing: you are served directly by the chefs, but you only get 4-5 small shrimps. When you ask for more, you get the feeling that the chefs don't like it. That doesn't seem very inviting. Another problem is the layout of the tables: If you sit at the back and get food from the buffet, you have to expect that it will already be cold by the time you get back to your seat. The plates are also very small, which means you have to constantly get up and catch up. All in all, Eatalio Dortmund is perhaps something for people who like to eat in crowded restaurants and have patience. But for us it was more of a stressful experience. That's why I only give it 2 stars.

Buffet Everything your heart desires

Very good again and again. The variety is very good. And the quality is good too.

In addition to the fact that it is very full, I can note that the institution is very pleasant! Many dishes to choose from and an unusual interior, but really a lot of people. In general, we really liked going as a family!

We drove 1 hour to get here and have to say that it was absolutely worth it. Great food and great service. We will definitely come here again☺️

Very friendly service. The choice of food was very large. Everything we ate tasted very good. We'd love to come back.

This was my fifth time there and it was always great. We even got there at 8:30pm and everything was still hot and completely stocked up. Super tasty great service

We went to eatalion for the first time today based on a recommendation. We were thrilled by the variety and, above all, the taste of the food. Not only can you recommend it, you have to experience it once. Yes! That's right. You don't have to. But then you're missing out on a real treat. We are not gourmet freaks and just eat what tastes good. But being so enthusiastic about so many of the dishes we tried surprised even us. You should try a small portion of all the dishes, but then we have to and will come to eatalio three more times, the dishes are so varied. Of the 15 to 20 different dishes (bites) that we enjoyed, there wasn't one that we weren't thrilled with. Chapeau eatalio. Quality and great culinary art count here. And not to forget the very relaxed and friendly staff. We call this experience gastronomy. Thank you eatalio and see you soon.

Good buffet food. Lots of choice. Only the service could be more attentive.

The best all you can eat I have seen and eaten. Very good and high quality of the products, everything is simply delicious and above all hot, fresh and plentiful. Super nice staff. The dessert (Dubai tiramisu) best 10000000000……. Points

You can get better Italian food elsewhere. Lots of choice, unfortunately more quantity than quality. The acoustics are also more like a canteen. None of the dishes on offer were able to convince me 100% in terms of taste. However, the service staff is very nice and accommodating.

Very good food, staff friendly and helpful. Gladly again

Friendly staff, good food and large selection of dishes.

The service was very quick and always forthcoming. The food was plentiful and always fresh. We'll definitely be back.

Incredible buffet that you won't find anywhere else. Delicious, diverse, fresh and always attractively presented! Never empty dishes!

Very tasty food, very tidy and clean, lots of choice and good quality of products. Service was also great and very attentive. We'd love to come back!

Such a gigantic buffet! All dishes taste great. The spaghetti in the parmesan loaf was particularly excellent. Everything was always replenished in a timely manner. Unfortunately we ate way too much 😇

Been there for the first time. Never had such a rich and good quality buffet. Thanks for the good service.

Well, we used to be there very often But now when I read the price I changed my mind. I find 7€ more than usual to be outrageous. If it were with a drinks flat it would still be ok but not just for the food

Definitely a mega buffet restaurant 😜

Huge selection and really tasty

We were at eatalio on a Saturday evening, it was incredibly crowded, loud and above all WARM and stuffy. After visiting there you smelled like a small, grilled steak. First of all: the service was great, the waiters were friendly and very, very quick! The food, however, was OKAY! The truffle pasta made from the Parmesan wheel was really good, as was the freshly grilled steak with a sauce of your choice, but the pasta dishes and starters from the buffet are just quantity and not quality. We didn't like the desserts at all! We won't come back for €36.90, I can't eat that much truffle pasta and steak. It wasn't bad by any means, but it didn't convince us.

Everything just fits 🤗 I would particularly like to emphasize the service, friendliness and attentiveness! It's rare these days

The food is great, I enjoyed it. We've been there three times now and will come back again. The price is high, but I still think it's ok. You don't eat there every day. All in all, I think it's good👍🏽

We were there as a family and were more than thrilled, the food was delicious and the selection was more than large. We were really excited about everything and it was something special, so the 2 hour journey was really worth it.

Everything was right for us! Food very rich and tasty. Service extremely friendly and eager. Everything went very quickly. Unfortunately we had very unfriendly, inconsiderate table neighbors, otherwise the evening would have been perfect. Thank you ❣️

Yesterday we were with 9 women and everything was perfect... Our waiter was super nice... We had table 59... the only thing we didn't like was the narrowness of the next table... especially with such a large group it was pretty tight when walking back and forth... We'll be happy to come back

The guy in the parking lot who opens the door is pretty much the nicest person we know. Made our day. Kiss goes out. Please give him a raise.

Very good and beautiful restaurant at an incredibly fair price. Very nice and courteous service. Certainly not the last visit.

Including the Spanish week it is worth a visit.

Very good food, great service, MA's very friendly, all around a great experience!!🥳💪🏻💯

The food was delicious, unfortunately the pizza maker behind the buffet was so unfriendly. Just cut the pizza better next time and you'll get it. The guy was really stressed out. Otherwise again at any time.

Again and again! Extremely large selection. Something for everyone.

A lot of fresh food to choose from and very good staff

Great location, very tasty food, an incredibly good selection and quality and excellent service.

I was surprised by my girls for their birthday. The selection of Italian food (pizza, pasta, antipathy, seafood) is unbelievable!!! Must have tested every time. Our blonde waitress was also super sweet and nice. We'll be back!!! But make a reservation urgently!!! Recommendation try the Hugo. Really delicious!

I visited this restaurant on Valentine's Day, and even though it was fully booked, we had our drinks very quickly, and the staff overall was also very friendly. I don't have to say much about the food: As a starter there is a large selection of bruschetta and antipasti (there were also various salads in small bowls, which my girlfriend really liked). When it came to main courses, it felt like there was really everything – really everything. I tried a lot of things and have to say that everything was really tasty. As a criticism, however, I have to say that I found the selection of sauces weak. The highlight for me, however, was the breakfast. I usually find breakfast at all-you-can-eat buffets rather weak, but this one - and especially the Kaiserschmarrn - really convinced me.

There was a huge selection of different starters, main courses and desserts. You definitely found enough that you liked. However, it was just TOO MUCH. The taste was ok, but nothing special. The pasta was drowned in sauce, sometimes there was too much pepper/garlic in the starters. Overall, I didn't think the price-performance ratio was appropriate because the amount of selection shouldn't influence the price.

We were there for the second time, but we weren't particularly impressed this time. The food was very salty, sometimes even inedible (chicken breast). The selection is very large and there is something for every taste. I am always particularly impressed by the choice of dessert. However, given the size and volume of eatalio, you shouldn't expect top-notch cuisine! The service was super nice, quick and attentive. Drinks were regularly replenished and the plates were cleared quickly. There's nothing to complain about there. We are aware that it is very crowded on Sunday lunchtime, but the tables in the middle of the walkways to the buffet are not particularly attractive. We were happy that we could sit at a table to the side or further back. This way the other guests didn't constantly walk past us behind our backs. Anyway, we were happy that we were sitting on the upper floor. It's much quieter there than down in the buffet area. What we noticed this time was the very dirty floor. It stuck everywhere and when you walked you had the feeling that your shoes were easily stuck to the ground.

The food is very tasty, there is a lot to choose from and the staff is very friendly. I would love to come back

Mega nice and cozy restaurant done in a rustic style. Absolutely top class food. If you don't find anything to your liking here, it's your own fault. Huge selection of salads, meat, fish, pasta, pizza, etc. For me personally, the dessert buffet is also top class. Staff very accommodating and very nice. Service terrific. We would love to come back

Went there for the first time today and it was absolutely great. We'll be back for a selection of food where everything was really tasty.

Tasty, good service!! Price is a bit high!

Very friendly service. Top service and a great selection of food. Always freshly refilled and an extremely clean location for this size We would be happy to come back

Bring a big appetite and time to try everything

We had dinner in the restaurant today. From the friendly welcome to the service to the end, everything was great. Very friendly. The food from the buffet was very rich and varied, offering something for everyone. It was always refilled immediately so that there were never any empty plates to be seen. The food was very tasty, only the spaghetti from the cheese wheel was unfortunately too salty and needs to be improved. The dessert is also very, very tasty. We liked everything. We'll definitely be back. The restaurant gets 5 stars plus. What we particularly noticed was the cleanliness of the restaurant and the toilet was also cleaned again and again during operation. Top!!

The haze from the freshly fried meat wasn't that nice.

Nice staff. Clean ambience. Very good food. Clean toilets

Very friendly staff, food is excellent if you pay attention to the quantities used. Empty dishes will be refilled promptly. As a little tip, if you sit in the upper area, the noise level is very pleasant. Was there several times and not the last time.

Great shop, brilliant buffet, friendly service

We had the Italian/Spanish buffet. Lots of choice, really tasty. It's a shame that we were full at some point. The service was good and courteous. The location is basically really good. Old factory hall, well staged. Unfortunately, the tables weren't really clean and the surfaces with decorations were very dusty.

The food was partly very good, partly rather mediocre. Since it is a huge buffet, this is logical and cannot be compared with the small Italian restaurant next door. The ambience inside is beautiful and really makes a difference!

Great staff. We have rarely experienced such friendly people. Fast service, everything was perfect. The food was good with a few drawbacks. What wasn't good was too crowded and way too loud.

Everything was perfect. I especially liked the noodles and the perfect steak. There was so much choice that unfortunately we couldn't try many dishes. Whatever, next time!! 😄

We have been to Eatalio several times but this time was unfortunately disappointing and also the last time. We had reserved a table for 12 people, unfortunately nothing was prepared and we had to push the tables together ourselves. The table was also right at the entrance which didn't make the whole atmosphere comfortable. The food (especially the pasta dishes and the shrimp) was very, very salty. We were there with 2 children, including a 3-year-old, and the waiter wanted to charge us half the price, although the homepage says that children up to and including 3 years of age can eat for free. Only after I accessed and showed the homepage was the position canceled. It's a shame that we have to discuss this first. All in all, it was very disappointing, especially for the not exactly low price.

A fantastic restaurant, ambience, interior lighting, a completely different feeling The buffet was very varied. The only thing that bothered me was that the plates were so small and you couldn't fit much on them. You had to constantly get up from your seat to refill them because our seat was at the top of the stairs. It was a bit annoying for us. Dishes are labeled with ingredients but it would be much better to have extra visible vegan and vegetarian labels. Desserts were also full of variety. Service, service, friendliness, everything is great, price performance a little more than other all you can eat restaurants but a visit there is definitely worth it.

I found it very nice there We had a very friendly waiter, the food is always great We had a table with a quieter corner.

Went here with the family and found it very nice. We really liked the atmosphere and the service was great too. The music was pleasant and most importantly, the food was very good. The only drawback were the pasta dishes. Here we thought the noodles were too overdone. But as I said, the rest was very tasty and fresh. Full points

The food is very varied and also quite good. It was constantly being refilled. The staff is quick and very friendly. I would go again.

I was invited here by a German person and I must say that I found a pleasant environment and very kind and friendly staff. It is an "All You Can Eat" suitable for an audience that is not too demanding from a quality point of view, certainly not comparable to the Italian standard, where a place like this with Italian dishes could not exist. far from the "originals"... The most obvious flaw is the "cooking of the pasta", not suitable for a refined palate... Many dishes are seasoned with a lot of garlic, not typical of the Italian style... However, for those who arrive very hungry the place is fine. 😅

Great location in an old industrial building. Hugely large, over 2 levels, but we still sat comfortably with several people and were able to have a good chat (we sat upstairs). The buffet offering is awesome. From antipasti to zabaglione, everything is there. Cold and warm, sweet and savory dishes; everyone will find what they are looking for there. That's why I think the price of €36.90 (on Thursday, as of 2025) is justified. The buffet lasts until 9 p.m. At 8:30 p.m. everything was still stocked up and plentiful. (I always wonder what happens to all the food at the end of the day. I hope it doesn't all end up in the trash 🙈) The waitresses were quick, very nice and funny, despite the restaurant being full to the brim! Ultimately, I can only recommend it. Just try it out 👍

Very tasty and varied buffet, especially the pasta in a cheese wheel is a highlight.

Yesterday we went to Eatalio for the Italian and Spanish buffet We were more than thrilled So much choice You can't try everything but it's all prepared with so much love.. Simply great The meat, the fish, the sauces, desserts were all perfectly prepared I come from the catering industry myself We were thrilled Also the staff So attentive and friendly Everything was right It wasn't the last time we were there Thank you for everything

As always, very tasty, great selection, great service. Super friendly. We would love to come back.

It was our first visit today and definitely not our last. Everything was nicely and tasty and the service was very attentive and quick. Price performance is just right 👍 Thanks to the team 🙋🏻‍♂️

Everyone should have their own experience. I found some items were not Italian cuisine. Some things were too seasoned or had way too much oil.

The store has great food, but the pizzas are cut with a pizza cutter, there is no extra for pork and no pork. When we asked, we were just told it didn't matter to us, either we eat or we don't. I find it unacceptable! Please improve because it shouldn't be difficult to organize a pizza cutter.

Great restaurant can only be recommended

One thing can be said: Everything is excellent, simply great!!!

The service was very good and uncomplicated. Surprisingly we were 2 more guests and it didn't matter but it was made possible. Thank you. The selection of food is INCREDIBLE and what I chose was very good. Unfortunately I couldn't try everything because there were just too many different things. So we have to come again and are looking forward to it.

We were pretty disappointed this time. We sat at the top. By the time we got the food to the table it was cold. And very bad for people with knee problems and walkers! Somehow waiters were never there upstairs. Plates were piled up and we had drinks waited a long time. If you sit downstairs it's great
