La Galleria Italiana in Berlin

Perfect morning espresso ☕💥 — strong, rich, and just the right kick to start the day. Loved the quiet outdoor seating and the authentic Italian vibe. Highly recommended for true coffee lovers!

A true highlight! La Galleria Italiana impresses in every way, from the warm service to the authentic Italian cuisine. From the moment you enter, you feel welcome; the staff is attentive, friendly, and always there with a smile. The food was simply fantastic. The chef knows his craft and serves Italian cuisine just as you would expect: authentic and delicious. Combined with the pleasant atmosphere, La Galleria Italiana is a restaurant you won't just want to visit once, but will definitely want to return.

The food is okay. The staff is unfriendly. During our visit (2 people), more than half of the restaurant's interior was occupied by a party of more than 25 people. During the course of the meal, very loud party music was played from the restaurant, which led to the group dancing, even though other guests were present. We were offered a table outside, as everything inside seemed to be reserved. On the table (see picture) were various oil bottles from the other tables, which no one cleared away even when asked. We waited a total of over 10 minutes for the bill. The manager was present throughout our entire stay, but he, too, didn't care about the bottles or our well-being. Other groups of young, neatly dressed women who arrived after us received preferential treatment (e.g., being offered a table inside even though there was no reservation), especially by the manager of the restaurant. Overall, we felt very uncomfortable and would have preferred not to pay at all.

Super good pasta shop! I haven't had better pasta in Berlin! Anyone who gives this place a star because of supposedly bad food can only be from the competition.

A slice of Italy in the heart of Berlin. The best homemade pappardelle with veal and truffles I've ever eaten. The antipasti and wine pairing are top-notch. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. You immediately feel at home here, which more than makes up for the street-side location.

I honestly don't understand why some people give it "only" four stars (very German). What else do they expect? This small, charming restaurant impresses across the board: The service is attentive and warm, the waitresses friendly and accommodating. The food? Simply outstanding! Freshly made pasta, outstandingly flavorful sauces – each one with character and depth. If you love bold flavors, this is the place for you. The antipasti platter was also great and easily fed three people. The Aperol Spritz is highly recommended – mixed just right. The atmosphere outside is truly lovely, a real highlight, especially on warm evenings. The value for money is absolutely spot on here – especially with this quality. For me, this is a clear 5-star case. Anyone who leaves here with four stars should consider whether they're dining in Michelin-starred restaurants too often. For a restaurant of this type, this is almost perfect. We'll definitely be back!

A very nice restaurant with a friendly staff. The food and atmosphere are excellent. We'll definitely be back.

Great italian pasta restaurant!

Great experience, the people working there are very hospitable very great people, it is family owned. The food is absolutely amazing, their pastas are great, every single one of them and they also make great meat.

Homemade noodles, very tasty, the ambiance outside was perfect in good weather, very nice, absolute recommendation in Torstraße 👍😊

Amazing food, so happy we went here for dinner. All of our dishes were excellent. Great service, incredibly nice group of guys running the place. Highly recommend!

Everything is perfect. Seriously, it's so delicious. It's more delicious than mainland Italy, so definitely come here. It's really crazy delicious and sexy food. You can drink wine by the bottle for 30-50 euros. Definitely go and try it. And the older sister and brother who serve you are handsome, pretty, and kind. It's really the best. I almost confessed.

This place was seriously good. We got the brescola to start. Delicious. For our mains we had carbonara and penne bolagnase. Both were quite good, but the carbonara was tops. It's one of my favorite dishes in general and I've had it throughout Europe and this one ranks up there for best I've had. So creamy and the meat was just perfect. We ended with tiramiso and espresso. Worth a visit.

Great hosts, delicious church, the bread is homemade and the prices are really fair. Changing cuisine but everything is typically Italian and the portions are such that you don't have to leave hungry. Eating with Amore.

Great linguine with parmesan cream and truffles. Small shop with a few tables, nice unobtrusive service. Definitely recommended!

Sweet little restaurant. Unfortunately we had to wait for the food, but it was worth it, it was very tasty and the portions were more than enough. The waiters were very nice and funny.

Very pleasant and small Italian restaurant on Thorstrasse. Spaghetti Salsiccia very tasty. The Sicilian Grillo is highly recommended. Tiramisu as dessert, very large portion - more suitable for sharing 😉

Good food, semi Italian id say.

The food was reasonably good but the service was so slow. There were two staff at front of house and they both just ignored guests completely. We were left waiting for ages for any service. Disappointing outcome.

Super local, mega chef in the evening and great atmosphere

Very cozy place. The waiters are very professional and pleasant. The owner is Italian and the food is Italian. While you eat inside, they play music. There is a very good vibe in general. Highly recommended, if you want to eat well and at the same time have a good time, it is the perfect place. At night it gets more lively.

Had a delicious dinner and wine at this restaurant for a really decent price! It’s very quaint and traditional inside and staff super lovely. The tirimisu is huge and a must get!

Very tasty 🍝 A great recommendation!

It's so loud in this restaurant that you can't hear your own words. So no trace of comfort. It's no fun going out to eat.

The restaurant would generally have a nice atmosphere. However, the mirror was very dirty and some of the bulbs in the lamps didn't work. But what was worse was the service. The young man was constantly on TikTok loudly on his cell phone and when we wanted to pay we couldn't make eye contact with him for 5 minutes because he was on his cell phone the whole time and it was very obvious. Unfortunately he was also very unfriendly in other ways. Unfortunately, this overshadowed the stay and the tasty food. The food was quite okay. I advise the young man to learn the principles of hospitality on YouTube.

Long waiting times. Over 2.5 hours, no service, no response. Eating partially burnt tough meat. Unfortunately not recommended.

We had such a great few nights here while in Berlin. The food was outstanding! Every dish was delicious. I’m still thinking about the pasta arrabiata. The staff were all really nice and service in general was great. Loved loved loved this place!

Top service, delicious food, simply recommended, price/performance ratio is excellent, we will be back

Great spot This was really good _ Tagliatelle Al Salmone _ penne siciliana

Very typical, reduced Italian food. Beck's bread is awesome with oil, pepper and salt. The pasta dishes are great. The service is very friendly.

An incredible place with an atmosphere of comfort and warmth. My friends and I visited the restaurant and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and service. Each dish was prepared with love and attention to detail, and the presentation was simply amazing. The staff was very friendly, helped with the choice and were attentive throughout the evening. It is ideal for both family dinners and romantic meetings. We will happily return and will definitely recommend this place to everyone

For me as a country bumpkin in Berlin, it was great 😍

Classics in Mitte...Best pasta and specials

We were warmly welcomed in, even though it was pretty late. Great food, comfortable atmosphere and an awesome cook 😁 we will be back soon hopefully. Grazie mille amici miei ✌🏼

Service was very accommodating, although perhaps a bit stiff at first. By the third order, however, things had relaxed and the lady at the counter was also more open-minded. The pasta "de la casa" and the "with salmon" seemed to have a very similar sauce preparation, but I could be completely wrong. Very good for a spontaneous visit!

A wonderful evening. Thank you!

Delicious food, tasty dishes. Terrace is cozy but noisy because of the road that runs past it. Very friendly staff, fast service.

Regular local. Very, very tasty food, best staff and always a very good atmosphere! Also perfect for larger groups (birthdays etc.).

Best Italian restaurant in Berlin! Really typical Italian restaurant, even the waiters speak Italian among themselves! The cuisine is simply killer! especially the carbonara pasta and the sauce ravioli! The servers and owners are welcoming and super friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Overpriced food, unfriendly staff. And the food isn't even particularly good. As I found out afterwards, the restaurant regularly has bad reviews deleted - that explains why it still has such high rating points. Stay away!

Awesome place, super food, super mice service. Love it!

Great Italian restaurant with excellent food, good daily menu.

Waiting for a long time, bad service, the waiters don't feel like it anymore and you can see it clearly.

Great food, nice terrace for outdoor dining

Definitely doesn't do justice to the prices. There were four of us and a friend got her food first while we had to wait 45 minutes for our food. (Were all pasta dishes) The waiter was unfriendly. Neither a "bon appetit" nor a "thank you" and "please" - and after my complaint when paying (the food was very salty) I only got a shrug of my shoulders. A pity.

The space and the staff are completely okay, unfortunately the food wasn't as good as expected, I ordered the carbonara with truffle oil and there was an incredible amount of parmesan on the pasta. And the sauce was more like an oil than a carbonara sauce.

Delicious and plentiful and great service.

Bij aankomst al driftig een tafel aangewezen gekregen en andere gasten kregen eerder een kaart en drinken. Na 10 minuten geen ober langsgekomen zijn we opgestaan en weg gelopen.

My boyfriend and I are Italian and we didn't think we would eat so well in an Italian restaurant in Berlin. The owner and his employees put so much passion into what they do! Honest prices and lots of limoncello offered

Very tasty food for an affordable price. The staff was correct. It was nicely decorated, not large, which made it a bit noisy.

The food was very tasty, so it was a shame that the waiter didn't even ask me if he could clear away my food. After asking where my food was, I was told that they had already thrown it away. Normally you ask beforehand, you would have liked to pack it up and continue eating it at home :)

We love this place since we have visited the first time. The dishes are really really original and affordable, they offer lunch plates for 11 euro (bread and espresso even included). And in the evening the place gets crowded very very fast, the atmosphere is amazing and the dishes are even better at night. You should visit it when you are in town. The carbonara is insane : )

Bad quality food and rude staff

Awesome food!! Best tiramisu I have ever tasted (including a lot of Italian restaurants). Not a lot of space, but plenty of atmosphere 😊 (Our price incl. 18% tip)

Very cozy little delicious Italian restaurant, great staff.

Very tasty entrecôte calvados and the panna cotta was a good ending. Great shop, I definitely have to go there again.

Ein kleines italienisches Restaurant, was immer ein Besuch wert ist. Preise sind okay, für abends am besten reservieren.

Sehr lecker vorallem das Tiramisu

Super Flair original Italienisch 🤩

Hausgemachte Nudeln, leider war einiges von der interessanten Tageskarte um 17:30 Uhr nicht mehr erhältlich, obwohl das Restaurant noch völlig leer war… freundlich zurückhaltende Bedienung, ab 18:30 Uhr an einem Sonntag in den Herbstferien sehr voll, Reservierung zu empfehlen, witzig eingerichtetes, großes WC, allerdings ist von dem Behinderten-WC der Stützarm leider demontiert

Cozy spot, decent food. Incredibly ignorant staff. If you’re a tourist don’t go. They clearly don’t want your business.

Wir waren 6 Personen, hatten vorbestellt, da sollten wir in einen separaten unordentlichen Raum.Das wollten wir nicht. Der Service war sehr schlecht, lange Wartezeit auf die Getränke, auf das Essen auch, ein Essen wurde vergessen. Das Essen war sehr lecker, bis auf mein Rindersteak war leider durch, nicht wie ich es bestellt hatte.Die Bedienung hatten Jogginghosen an. Da es schon der Zweite Versuch war, steht für uns fest, dort gehen wir nicht mehr hin.

Buena pasta y terraza.... nada especial Los precios de Berlín

Imponerende. Ægte italiensk med alt hvad det indebærer. Godt brød. Frisk pasta. Cremet sauce!!! God service. Virkelig god drikkelses muligheder. Rimelig pris. Slet ikke dyrt for det gode mad. Fuldt hus på en hverdag. Meget snakkesaglige tjenere virkelig fedt! Kæmpe stor anbefaling!

It is a good place with simple and tasty Italian dishes. A perfect lunch spot. You have to wait for a while. Inside there is not so much space, but outside is a nice urban oasis.

Kleines aber nettes Restaurant mit leckeren Speisen

Délicieux menu du midi un plat et une boisson pour 11 euros - un vrai italien

12€ pour 2 cafés au lait, à fuir !

Das Essen war zwar sehr lecker, mussten aber sehr lange darauf warten. Da außerdem im Sommer leider nur die Plätze im Außenbereich genutzt werden, kann es gegen Abend kalt werden. Generell waren wir vom Ambiete und dem Service enttäuscht. Es ist sehr schade, da uns sowohl die Vorspeise als auch der Hauptgang gut gefallen hat.

Leckeres Essen, aber sehr schlechter Service.. Beim Empfang wurden wir nicht Mal begrüßt, es wurde bei der Bestellung nicht mit uns kommuniziert, der Kellner zeigte gar keine Euphorie beziehungsweise Fürsorge für unser Wohlbefinden und auf die Bestellung eines stillen Wassers bekam ich ein kleines Glas Leitungswasser und zahle dafür € 3,00. Die Trüffelpasta war sehr gut und ein andere Kellner zeigte mehr Einsatz, aber der Service lässt zu wünschen übrig. PS: AUCH NUR BARZAHLUNG!

Gezellige setting buiten, goede service en lekker eten (grote porties) aan een goede prijs. We waren met een groep van 16 en dit was geen enkel probleem!

We had a very pleasant dinner outside at this restaurant, where there are 9 or so tables on the deep sidewalk between side hedges. It was leisurely for us, although others didn't order salad and finished faster. We started with insalate caprese, delicious bufalo mozzarella on a bed of arugula and tomato slices dressed with olive oil and balsamic vinegar and topped with fresh basil leaves. Very tasty with slices of crusty bread. Then we had pasta, fettuccine with salmon for him and spaghetti marinara with frutti de mare for me. Plentiful and delicious. After we asked for the check, our waiter offered a complimentary digestif; we chose limoncello (schnapps seemed wrong after an Italian dinner). Just perfect! Great people watching, met some nice folks at the next table.

Leckeres Essen zum angemessene n Preis. Sehr wenige Tische und leider hängt häufig der Küchendunst im Gastraum.

Das die Bedienung gar kein Deutsch konnte war ein wenig befremdlich.. Nicht mal Aperol Spritz wurde verstanden und ein Radler war völlig unverständlich.... Das Essen war ok

Sehr schön direkt in der Innenstadt

Wir haben ca. 2 Stunden lang auf unser Essen gewartet, das gefühlt auch erst nach unserer Frage wo das Essen denn bleibt zubereitet wurde. Brot oder Ähnliches gab es keines vorab. Nach Getränken wurde auch nicht mehr gefragt in der Zwischenzeit. Als dann irgendwann nach und nach die Gerichte kamen, war das Essen jedoch wirklich ganz gut. Ein kleines Entgegenkommen vom Betreiber gab es nicht. Nochmal würden wir uns das nicht antun.

Essen ist nicht schlecht. Leider fand zum Zeitpunkt unseres Essens eine Geburtstagsfeier mit bestimmt 15-20 Personen im Restaurant statt, ohne dass das Restaurant für andere geschlossen wurde. Im Restaurant selbst sind mit gutem Willen 25-30 Sitzplätze gesamt. Während unseres mindestens einstündigen Besuches standen daher durchgehend Leute etwa 50 cm von unseren Stühlen entfernt und begrüßten sich überschwänglich, redeten lautstark und quetschten sich mit Getränken an uns vorbei. Liebe Betreiber, wenn ihr einer Geburtstagsfeier den gesamten Gastraum zur Verfügung stellen wollt, dann macht doch bitte eine geschlossene Gesellschaft draus.

Wirklich sehr leckere Nudeln, hatten alle Pasta bestellt und allen hat es unglaublich gut geschmeckt (Lachs-Nudeln und Ravioli). Definitiv empfehlenswert, man hat heraus geschmeckt, dass es frisch zubereitet wurde. Mitarbeiter auch absolut freundlich und zuvorkommend. Würden wir aus Berlin kommen, würden wir da definitiv öfter hin! Preis Leistungsverhältnis auch absolut gut!

sehr nettes authentisches italienisches restaurant mit guter pasta und annehmbaren preisen

Autentisk. Ægte italiensk med alt hvad det indebærer. Godt brød. Frisk pasta. Cremet sauce. Frisk trøffel (!) God vin. Stærk espresso. Rimelig pris. Slet kke dyrt! Fuldt hus på en hverdag. Stor anbefaling.

Place for all generations. Very cozy, delicious pasta. Highly recommend it for dinner.

Der perfekte Ort für ein ungezwungenes Essen - gute Qualität, faire Preise - und sehr nette Bedienung :)

Rustikaler Italiener mit guten Nudeln auf engstem Raum.

amazing and delicious! true italian in food, spirit and humor! had a great time and jokes with staff! will be back. p.s. bathroom is a masterpiece, guys!)

Bester Service und immer sehr gute Stimmung und Atmosphäre! Am Wochenende wird das Restaurant immer abends zum Party Italienern 😜

Very good food, small, authentic italian restaurant

The food is decently priced, the servings are well-portioned, and you can smoke if sitting outside.

Essen war eigentlich ganz gut, ab 22 Uhr wollte man aber nicht mal mehr einen Kaffe servieren weil „ die Maschine schon sauber gemacht wurde“ Die Tischdecke ( zu einem Geburtstag) war leider nur eine Papier - Wegwerftischdecke.

Small and cozy atmosphere, the food is acuerdo very nice but the wine is a bit expensive for what it is. Servers are friendly and nice music.

Wij namen carpaccio en meloen met San-Daniele ham als voorgerecht, fantastisch! De ham was vers gesneden en had enorm veel smaak. Erna namen we de spaghetti met Italiaanse worst in tomatensaus en de gevulde ravioli met San-Daniele hal, opnieuw waren we weg van deze gerechten. Bereid met verse producten die veel smaak hebben in een gezellig kader voor een zeer schappelijke prijs. Wij komen hier zeker terug!

Essen maximal Durchschnitt, Service bodenlos schlecht. Auf keinen Fall nochmal. Bessere Alternativen um die Ecke: Papa Pane oder Nuovo Firenze

Lovely little Italian restuarant , limited seating inside. Food was amazing😍 I got the pasta and a glass of wine and my friend got the plate of starters !! So good !! 100% recommend

Due to some of the bad reviews, we were unsure whether we should eat there or not. However, the restaurant, the food and the staff surprised us very positively. The food is excellent and large portions are served. the staff is extremely friendly. the restaurant is very small and cozy. Inside there is space for about 30 people. the terrace is big. the menu is manageable but all dishes are freshly prepared. gladly again!

Ich war bei diesem Italiener zwei Mal, einmal mit meiner Familie, draußen sitzend, sowie mit einer großen Runde von Kollegen drinnen. Die Speisekarte ist überschaubar und das Essen lecker, die Portionen sind in Ordnung. Die Bedienung war stets freundlich. Das Lokal selbst ist jedoch sehr klein. Das macht es durchaus gemütlich, allerdings ist der Schallpegel bei voller Auslastung dementsprechend hoch, zudem ist die Musik ziemlich laut, sodass eine Unterhaltung schwerfällt. Unsere Gruppe bat zwischendurch um eine Unterbrechung der Musik, um eine kurze Ansprache an die Kollegen zu halten. Dieser Bitte wurde nachgekommen, doch direkt danach wurde die Musik wieder so laut wie vorher aufgedreht. Meines Erachtens ein guter Italiener, den man mit Freunden besuchen kann; für eine Verabredung zu zweit würde ich aber ein anderes Restaurant aufsuchen.

Very beautiful food definitely authentic Italian.. Friendly staff..

Ich war mit Freundinnen zum Abendessen da und es war echt nett. Solide Qualität von Essen und Wein, freundliche Bedienung, die auf alle unsere Wünsche eingegangen ist. Pasta war al dente, Sauce gut gemacht. Preis-Leistung absolut ok. Ich hatte eine Trüffelpasta für 17€.

Lovely small restaurant, where local friends come to meet. Had an excellent tagliatella and sicilian wine. Great arrival in Berlin 🤩👍

Italienische Nudeln. Man hat die Wahl auf frisch gemachte Nudeln. Eine große Auswahl an verschiedenen Soßen. Deutlich eigener Geschmack in all den Soßen, wer kräftige Soßen mag ist hier auch richtig. Die Antipasti Platte war sehr lecker, wir hatten die kleine bestellt und hat auch für 3 Personen gereicht. Sehr empfehlenswert ist der Aperol Spritz. Angemessener Service. Würde auf jeden Fall empfehlen draußen zu essen. Preise angemessen $$. Ist ein Besuch auf jeden Fall wert. Unsicher ob vegetarische/vegane Gerichte möglich sind.

Authentische Küche. Es war lecker, Highlight war die Trüffel-Carbonara. Essen war sehr schnell fertig, Service fix.

FOOD POISONING: my husband, friend and I ate here last night. (Salmon al Limone, pasta of the day, Truffle Pasta) My husband woke up in the middle of the night vomiting. I felt nauseous and sick to my stomach in the middle of the night but luckily wasn’t over the toilet the entire night. Our friend who had a bite of my husbands salmon also felt very ill but never to the point of hurling. I felt so bad for my husband as he had to work early the next day. My pasta was so buttery and swimming in its own leftovers. I left 6-10 tablespoons of pure grease and butter on my plat. Honestly it makes me sick thinking about it. Will never ever ever eat here again. Ever.
