La Gelateria in Lindau (Bodensee)

Attracted by the eye-catching pavement sign on the "Boulevard" in Lindau, designed to charmingly lure passersby into a romantic side street, we decided to give the advertised pizzeria a try. "The best pizza in Lindau" – or a similarly ambitious claim – was emblazoned on the sign and aroused high expectations. As a lover of Italian cuisine and a passionate pizza fan who has traveled many a distance for a good pizza – and has also worked as a pizzaiolo myself – I allow myself to claim a certain degree of expertise in this field. Our expectations of this small restaurant were correspondingly high. The menu is pleasantly concise: classic, simple Italian dishes and a wide selection of pizzas. The ambiance and service were solid – but the pizza, unfortunately, was only average. Of course, the dough is a matter of debate, as there are many different preferences and preparation methods. But for a truly good pizza, the quality of the ingredients – especially the toppings and the cheese used – is paramount. In this case: Fior di Latte or at least a high-quality mozzarella. The Quattro Stagioni was generously filled, but unfortunately with inferior supermarket salami and cheap ready-made mozzarella from a wholesaler – the kind you unfortunately find at 90% of "standard pizzerias" in Germany. Conclusion: All in all, the visit was okay – a solid meal in a nice little restaurant. But what was offered was far from "one of the best pizzas in Lindau," as the pavement sign promises. The expectations raised were not met – and that's precisely what leaves a bitter aftertaste.

Best Asian food in Lindau. Unbeatable value for money🤌

Ordered dinner for 5 people. During the 15-minute wait, we each received a free drink. Highly recommended for the service and ambiance alone. The food itself was also excellent.

Super friendly service Delicious food and drinks at reasonable prices
