La Bottega Da Franco in Berlin

Pizza was very good only the chairs are a little uncomfortable

Very reasonable prices and excellent food, and the staff is very attentive and friendly. Highly recommended.

Delicious pizza at reasonable prices. Very friendly staff.

This has definitely been my favorite Italian restaurant for many years. The food is excellent, the Chianti is delicious, and the bread, which you can also buy on its own, is crisp and flavorful. I've never eaten such a delicious pizza, and the salad is also super fresh. If you're a little peckish, I recommend the tomato soup; the cappuccino afterward rounds out the meal. The service is very attentive and friendly. The only thing that loses a star is the prices; they would increase them by €1.50-€3.00, which is noticeable in your wallet.

Great welcome! We ate well. The service is very good and it's very clean. I recommend it!

The portions are very generous and the taste is excellent. They manage to satisfy both the eye and the stomach.

So far ok, but the salad dressing was nothing

A fantastic Italian restaurant with Italian staff and excellent food. You can sit outside in the pedestrian zone in Spandau's old town. The value for money is unbeatable.

The pizzas are delicious, authentic and very reasonably priced. The waiters are Italian originals and friendly

In the old town of Spandau the Italian restaurant!!!. An institution for me for over 20 years. It is centrally located, has a wonderful outdoor area and is also cozy and attractive with its interior design. All food is delicious and tasty and served quickly. The service is friendly and helpful. The price=performance ratio is absolutely correct and appropriate

Unfortunately a very disappointing experience. When I went to pay, I was suddenly informed that no credit cards or Visa debit cards were accepted - this was neither signposted nor mentioned before. I had to leave the restaurant to withdraw cash. When I asked to speak to the manager, I was shown to a table where he sat and only passively acknowledged my complaint - no apology, no explanation. We live in 2025 – it felt like a trip back in time. I have already asked my hotel to stop recommending this restaurant and informed my network. We come to Spandau regularly for business - but we definitely won't be coming back here.

Cozy, very nice service and the wine was surprisingly cheap considering the slightly high prices for the food.

The pizzas were delicious, unfortunately the drinks had to be ordered. The staff didn't notice that we sat at the table for about 15 minutes without any drinks.

Spontaneously looking for something to eat on Friday evening around 9:45 p.m. and found it here. Great service, delicious food. Was perfect for us.

Very friendly staff. Absolutely reliable quality for many, many years.

Bruschetta and Lambrusco are a delight, plus the spagetti a'la Chefo is an additional treat, it puts a smile on my belly fat! A loving pat on the shoulder and kind words from an older waiter makes the sun shine in me! Happy Easter!

Personally, I’d much rather dine somewhere with average food but warm, friendly service. Unfortunately, this place didn’t deliver on either front. The Carbonara wasn’t very tasty, and the staff came off as impatient and unfriendly. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Very good restaurant! Very good restaurant!

We sat outside and were served very nicely and with delicious food.

Great prices/performance, nice service. Great taste, whether pizza or pasta

Schön eingerichteter Italiener mit freundlichen Personal. Die Speisen die wir hatten waren alle lecker. Die Preise sind OK

Excellent spaghetti carbonara. There is also free bread and parmesan. Furthermore, the service is very friendly and the food comes very quickly. A must for anyone who visits the most beautiful district in Berlin.

Insanely good food! We were there with a large group and everyone had excellent food and great service. Pizzas, meat but also fries and salad everything was delicious and perfect! We'll be back

I ordered a Tiramisu, which i really enjoyed and a Cappuccino. Also one of the waiters was looking so handsome😅🥰.

Best Italians far and wide. Sometimes seems a bit overworked. But otherwise still authentic among all the fakes. 🥰

Yes, definitely very tasty food

Highly recommended Food was really tasty (pizza, salad and meat) We'd love to come back

The food here is so good...you'll love coming over from Tempelhof every now and then! The calzone is highly recommended!

Very tasty, had pizza and pasta. Carbonara here is more like the original, the pizzas here are delicious and very fresh. The crust as tender as a baguette, I was very amazed. Food came after 7-10 minutes, drinks after 3 minutes. Friendly service. Big praise to the service and the kitchen. PS: (we were only in the restaurant at 10:30 p.m. on Women's Day and there were only a few tables occupied, so I can't judge what it's like here when the hut is full)

The pizza tasted very good and the service was very nice

Nice Italian restaurant with very attentive and friendly staff. The food was good and plentiful. Ambiance could be a bit darker, but that's just my opinion. We'd love to come back.

Absolutely wonderful! Gladly again.

The service is friendly but I found the noodles/lasagna very bland.

We found it authentically Italian. The service was very attentive and the food was just very good. Our Lambrusco and Chianti were also delicious as open wines and not too expensive.

This is very tasty, the size is more than enough. I can only recommend the burschetta. The service was very accommodating, polite and attentive. Unfortunately the atmosphere seems a bit dated. The drawback is the toilets. The steep stairs are not for everyone. We will definitely come back.

Cozy restaurant, no long waiting times Top ♡Super attentive service staff ♡ highly recommended ♡

Whether it's a starter, pasta or pizza, great Italian food. Service very friendly.

Friendly restaurant with classic Italian dishes.

Fantastisk service, trevlig personal väldigt god Pizza, precis som i Italien. mysig restaurang mitt i Alt stadt. Bra priser!

Came here from belfast,northern ireland for a competition and came here 2 NIGHTS IN A ROW for dinner it was that good! The waiters welcomed us and tried their best with english which I appreciate. I got a tomato based pasta which was OMG…A M A Z I N G. Good prices and the waiters were so kind and welcomed our huge competition team with smiles and good service. If you live in berlin or are just visiting the La Boggeta is the restaurant to go to! (P.s im very sorry to the waiter who had an argument to my teammate over carbonara without the cheese)

Very very tasty with my Italian neighbors

Very tasty food and courteous staff.

Always very tasty. Great ambience. Only recommended. Especially pasta with fresh truffles from Mario.

Un agradable restaurante que sirve comida tradicional italiana sabrosa, Buen precio. El único inconveniente es que sólo se aceptan tarjetas bancarias alemanas, así que el dinero en efectivo sólo es para los turistas.

It was wonderful, the service and food were great

After a negative experience at another restaurant, we went to La Bottega where we received a very friendly welcome. Despite it being Boxing Day, the food was on the table quickly and was very tasty. If you are looking for a good Italian, La Bottega is the right place. We will definitely come back ;)

Food and service very good, Prices reasonable, restaurant was furnished with a lot of love. We felt comfortable!

Great shop in the old town. You are warmly greeted with a smile. The tortellini with Gorgonzola was really tasty. The bruschetta was also very tasty. Recommended.

If you get a frozen molded schnitzel for €17.00 with a really disgusting consistency and the only apology you get is I'm sorry, I think that's cheeky. We always enjoyed eating there but I think that was the last time.

Simply invincible... Spaghetti al Ragout is highly recommended!

A very friendly welcome, a very good price/performance ratio. The Foccacia Bruscetta was great for sharing and was spicy. The pizza was rather neutral, but you can order spicy or spicy when ordering. The waitress (who felt like the boss) was very open to my feedback. Very pleasant atmosphere, I'll be back!

I've eaten here several times now, always delicious and everyone is helpful and very friendly. Today I ate the most delicious pizza in forever and even my husband thought it was particularly tasty and well topped.

Very nice service and excellent food (lamb chop) highly recommended!!! We'd love to come back.

Excellent service and not to mention the dishes! Veggie options, good prices and abundant! We went twice during our vacation

Nice Italian with great staff and good price/performance ratio

Deliciously priced, pretty Italian as far as service goes

Very friendly staff, Good Italian food

An Italian like before, narrow and loud atmosphere, but very sociable and still cozy. The food was excellent, especially the appetizer platter and pasta dishes were great. A well-rehearsed team and good service. Very happy again.

Simply great! Overwhelmingly friendly, fast service, the food was fresh and incredibly tasty, we had pizza, pasta and dessert. There is really nothing to criticize, we can highly recommend the restaurant.

The food is quite good, the atmosphere could be a little more authentic.

Pizza bread is great, pizza okay but nothing special. Beer ok but nothing earth-shattering. Card payment possible but only EC and no credit card.

Food frozen and then microwaved. Onion pie bad. Tea pot is the same size as the glass. Maybe cakes are fine but the rest besides location is not remarkable.

Best spaghetti Napoli ever!!! So easy... so incredibly delicious! The salad... a dream! Very fresh and crunchy... The service was super nice! We will definitely come back when we are in Spandau again.

Nice pizzeria with nice staff. Prices ok

Almost always satisfied, no matter what the occasion

An Italian with real spaghetti carbonara, which was super tasty. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

As always, super delicious food and family service! A place to feel good and enjoy. See you next time

Very friendly staff, accommodating, delicious, homemade pizza and super tasty spaghetti Bolognese. We would love to come back.

Super nice waiters and good food 👍

A cozy restaurant with very good food. Unfortunately there is no yogurt salad dressing. Too bad 😢 The service is very friendly and accommodating. We immediately felt comfortable. 👍🏼

Very friendly service, the food was prepared quickly, was very tasty and even tasted better than in very good restaurants in Milano. The dishes are varied and you can't complain about the price, as you now pay the same in “cheap” restaurants

The food isn't bad, but it's a smart place... no credit card and the ATM doesn't work 🤔. Lots of Italian style!

Top service, hardly any waiting time, after about 10 minutes we all (5 people) had our food and the price is definitely worth it too.

Very friendly service, great food (we LOVE the focaccia bruschetta as a starter for 2) and great prices. We have been there about 15 times in 3 years and are already looking forward to the next time!

Good restaurant, with good service. Unfortunately it's a bit old. food was

As always, good quality at solid prices. Down-to-earth and tasteful.

When I entered the restaurant, it reminded me of the past. It was pretty full, which is good for the operator, but also very loud. There was no music playing, so you could hear people talking from all sides. The service was very courteous and the food was delicious. I would eat there again and again.

Bien moyen, le service n'est pas à la hauteur et encore moins le comportement des serveurs. On demande 2 bières on nous sert 1 bière il faut réclamer la 2ème, on demande une grande bouteille d'eau avec 2 verres on nous apporte la bouteille et un verre, il faut réclamer le 2ème. Les plats sont bons et copieux. Au moment du règlement refus de nos 3 cartes bancaires veulent absolument du cash ou une EC impossible de savoir de quelle carte il s'agit probablement une carte allemande. Donc obligé d'aller retirer des espèces à la banque en face et en plus on se fait insulter par le serveur alors qu'on ne laisse pas de pourboire. Messieurs il faudrait bien comprendre avec une telle qualité de service et d'attitude vous n'aurez que très peu de pourboire. Bref une adresse où l'on ne retournera surtout pas.

normal Italian restaurant there were few people and a long wait for a grilled steak at the time of the bill they didn't accept the credit card 😱😱😱but it's 2024!!!

Tastes very good, nice service. Only the knives 🔪 could be sharper 😊 but a very kind waiter said to me, please eat with your fingers like we do in Napoli, plus the Italian accent. I had this sentence in my head all day with a grin on my face. 👍👍👍

Everything was great, no complaints, always recommended

We were there on Sunday lunchtime, it wasn't really full, but the service wasn't particularly good. First an incorrect drink order arrived - for which we had already waited 15 minutes. The starter was forgotten and the main prizes also took a long time and were presented completely carelessly. The taste was ok.

Nice restaurant with fair prices and delicious food. The service staff are all nice and attentive. You can sit inside and outside.

It was okay, food was good but it took more than an hour to arrive at our table

The food was delicious, but the service was not. We had to wait over 2 hours; drinking, eating and paying took the longest. I won't come here again.

Very good Italian cuisine 😄 Price acceptable. Located right in the old town of Spandau 🥰

We just drank an Aperol outside in the evening.

The reserved table for six people was not prepared upon arrival. The completely dirty table was only wiped down when asked. We waited a long time until we got the tickets and were finally able to order. The food was delicious.

Oh no, a real pizzeria is what I thought when I walked past LA BOTTEGA and the staff spoke Italian. Added to that a pleasant smell and my stomach convinced me to sit down. As soon as I sat down, the card arrived. Less than 2 minutes later my drink and 5 minutes later my extremely delicious seafood pizza. Everything just right, not too much garlic and a little bit of everything, perfect! You can sit comfortably in front of the shop and enjoy your food and drinks. The pedestrian zone in Spandau's old town always offers funny freaks to smile about. I was impressed by the shop and when I'm in the area again I'll definitely grab a seat for a delicious pizza!

Very tasty food and reasonably priced. Everything was possible for us to get a table! We'd love to come back next time we're in Berlin!

We sat outside, which was fine. The food was very good I had a tomato soup and a pizza with anchovies capers and ham. The pizzas are very large.

You can't drink beer here, like almost everywhere in Berlin, and it's a long way to the toilets, still up the stairs, but otherwise fine.

Very individual, slightly marred by a Christmas party that was a bit loud... but no obstacles to coming back😄 The wood-fired pizza is super🥰, Insalata pollo and tons of our summer hit😄😄

Great Italian restaurant, the whole family enjoyed it. The restaurant is also open until midnight, great! Very happy again

Maybe our waitress wasn't having the best day.

Very tasty, unfortunately very long waiting time

Nice service but the food wasn't good, we had pasta and pizza and both didn't taste good, the food was also ready very quickly, which also made us suspicious, it was very fast food-oriented, we will NOT be coming back But nice service

The food is pretty bad by Italian standards, I wouldn't eat there again the service is very nice but the food is really bad, I don't understand the positive comments...

The service was top notch, food and drinks are cheaper here than elsewhere.

Very tasty food, friendly service that remains totally relaxed despite the stress!
