La Taverna al porto Ristorante • Pizzeria • Catering in Eckernförde

Wednesday 10/23/24 Best pizza in Eckernförde! Unreservedly recommended! Great service! Table reservation is strongly recommended.

I was there for the second time now. On the first visit everything was great, but unfortunately that couldn't be maintained because on the second visit we waited almost 2 hours for our food and then got the wrong one. Unfortunately, we received little attention from the staff.

A visit to La Taverna al Porto is a MUST for us!! Personally, I almost always eat salad with chicken or Parma ham, I can't get such a delicious salad with dressing here in North Rhine-Westphalia The wine (here Primitivo) also tastes perfect with it. For my son it has to be the Penne al Arabiata, he loves it

Very nice and attentive team! We were here on a Wednesday evening and were lucky to get a table for four people. Those arriving later were not so lucky, so it's definitely worth making a reservation. The food is delicious, the portions are decent and the prices are fair. Full recommendation!

We used to go to Al Porto regularly. The food is good, the staff friendly. However, prices have risen sharply in the last two years. Recently also clearly decoupled from inflation. Okay, staff is scarce and increasingly more expensive. Nevertheless, we find price-performance to be increasingly difficult, especially when it comes to drinks. It was always a nice and appreciative gesture that there was a schnapps or espresso on the house with the bill. Unfortunately, Dirk Lettmann recently abolished this. Al Porto was once a special place, now it is replaceable. We will be visiting there less often in the future.

Very tasty pizzas and friendly staff. Unfortunately, they are often booked too heavily and who knows that the day after tomorrow they will be hungry for pizza ;-)

We had reserved a table at short notice today at 4:30 p.m. We were warmly welcomed, our starters came together as did the main courses. The food was very tasty and the portions were good. The leftovers were packed up for us. The service took care of our wishes very courteously. Price/performance was appropriate. We'll definitely be back, promise. Thanks to the team and the kitchen

Very tasty, nice restaurant and really nice staff

Either on the terrace or inside. Attentive service. And then delicious food. I had a salad. The last time we had pizza and it was so delicious.

This review only concerns a visit and the consumption of a pizza and is therefore not generally transferable. Service, ambience and location are good. Opinions differ when it comes to pizza: some want a lot of dough, a thick crust, the base can be sappy, others like crispy pizzas with little crust. The former will be happy here, the others will not.

I had: Bruschetta for €8.50 Baked with tomatoes, mozzarella, garlic and basil. Bread was good, tomatoes were rich and gratinated with cheese too. But the tomatoes were almost lukewarm and there was no taste or sight of any basil or garlic. I've gotten better bruschetta for less money. Then as the main course: Penne gratinate for €16.50 Penne baked in minced beef cream sauce with ham, mushrooms and peas. Penne yes, but the dish was rather dry. I couldn't find or taste the cream sauce at all, and I could only see and taste the ground beef. And with ham and mushrooms I also found it exaggerated, little ham, few mushrooms. In short: I wouldn't recommend this restaurant for what I got.

It's was decent, but quite expensive. The fish and sauce was really good, but the pizza was kinda bad. Not bad bad, but not something you want to order again. The portions was big however, so that's something. But in the end, not good enough food to justify the price.

Beautiful old house, also inside. We had delicious pizza and salad. Highly recommended.

Today I had the tagliatelle with lobster sauce and salmon, I have to say it was the most delicious pasta dish I've ever had. I never write a review, but I liked it so much that I just had to get it off my chest.

Unfortunately not child-friendly at all. I've already been here with a group of adults only - everything was great. With two small children? Terrible! Children's chair? Only when asked by an annoyed waitress. Own glasses for the children? Only after repeated requests, even though we ordered our own large bottle of water just for children. As soon as the adults had finished their food, half-empty plates were snatched from under the children's forks. “I’m sure they’re ready too.” If you don't want guests with children, please just hang a sign on the door. Even small people notice when they are not wanted. Conclusion: Never again!

Very good pizza and friendly service. Prices are also okay.

Friendly reception. Attentive staff. Great food - my favorite is the fish soup! Toilets clean.

Very nice service and excellent cuisine. Cozy and quiet outdoor area, we were there for the second time.

We spontaneously ate here during a day trip to Eckernförde. The restaurant was quite full but we were served nicely and quickly. Very tasty and rich.

Nice Italian restaurant with a good and cheap lunch. Compact and well-stocked menu as well as alternating daily specials. Delicious. Recommended!

Went for dinner on 7/30/24 Due to our 31st wedding anniversary there. Had a great evening. Everything is great. Gladly again and again.

The hidden terrace is a real insider tip. Here you have the longest amount of sun to end the evening. The food is very tasty and the portions are really big.

Very good restaurant, nice atmosphere and real price. Nothing to complain about. When we made reservations with a dog, we always got a not so nice table. Otherwise highly recommended 😀

The location was great, right at the harbor but unfortunately a large group was guests on that day so the wait for the food was already very long. We didn't think the food was that great either, instead of fwta cheese we had some fresh cheese got fries and the currywurst was quite normal standard.

I was surprised that the prices were really okay in a holiday resort. My pizza was great and so was the service

Super delicious food, very courteous service.

We're still eating 🥘 But the evaluation doesn't wait for the end. GreatGreat food very good, rich and very good taste. We had a risotto with apples and Taleggio cheese, amazing. The salami pizza couldn't be better. The mixed salad was rich and very well prepared. All in all, a successful meal that cannot be topped by anything. We would dine here again and again. The service is very courteous and friendly, attentive and always keeps an eye on the guest. All we can say is thank you.

We actually had another plan, to go out to eat in Eckernförde on a Saturday evening, we were just visiting, but the fact that we ended up at AlPorto was an absolute hit. We didn't expect such quality of ingredients and preparation. The ambience, completely to our liking. The waiter team, always making sure that we don't miss anything without being over it. We were thrilled. Friendly, helpful, with great recommendations and always a smile on her face. We were accompanied through the evening. There was the antipasti plate (never had such good antipasti) and for the main course the risotto with beef, which was thin but still medium. At my request, the second risotto was served with salmon - without any problems and very tasty. The portions are more than sufficient. We were absolutely full and left happy. It's clear to us that if we eat in Eckernförde, we'll go there again! Thank you for your hospitality!

Very, very nice and delicious Italian. Service is nice but takes quite a long time for drinks. Still absolutely recommended.

Carbonara was very creamy. I think it was made with cream. Didn’t taste like much. But was nice al dente. Pizza with spicy pepperoni was good and the crust airy. Took some time to get a table and the staff seemed quite stressed. We were seated indoor and it’s extremely loud there. Difficult to have a conversations.

Pizza was very tasty, but for my taste there was little filling for a pizza. And not exactly cheap

I ordered two pizzas to pick up. In total I paid 30 euros for these, but they weren't worth the money: rubbery dough, cheap toppings and soggy in the middle. In addition, it was already cold when I picked it up. No recommendation!

If I want to eat mushy Aldi gnocchi with over-salted tomato sauce out of the bag (it should be a rosé sauce), I'll do it for five euros at home in a nice atmosphere, instead of in this run-down shed for fifteen. I haven't eaten so badly in a very, very long time. Cashing in also took what felt like an eternity. Criticism was absolutely not accepted. Thank you, never again.

We were warmly welcomed and got a table straight away. Good luck! Just a few minutes later, almost all seats were occupied. The food was very tasty. As usual, the children wanted a salami pizza, but on the recommendation of the waitress, the children should share a pizza. She was right, because it was a perfect fit. I had a delicious pasta dish, a small starter salad and a Coke Zero. The children each received a large KiBa juice. All of this cost me around 50 euros. Totally fine for a tourist spot. I didn't like the salad that much. The dressing was great, the vegetables just tasted like water. For example, the tomato tasted like the cucumber. Last but not least, my little son (4 years old) fell in love with the woman behind the bar and confessed his love to her. The situation was resolved quite nicely. I waited about 10 minutes for the food. No matter the service, everyone was very nice. There are also good parking options, although these are connected to a small footpath. Oh yes, the pizza was also very tasty.

This place is really worth visiting if you like good Italian food. Really tasty and plenty of it. And so was the service for UG.

We love it there! The pizza and the appetizer plate are really recommended. The staff and us are always very friendly and the price/performance is also right. It has become a little more expensive, but that can't be avoided if the quality is to remain 👍🏼

Service, food are very good. Unfortunately, the guest room is very loud.

Good pizza and delicious slightly 'Germanized' Italian cuisine. In a very old office building atmosphere.

As I learned, I slept one night before this review. My wife and I went to this restaurant for lunch. I had the house anti pasti, my wife Vitello Tonato. Almost all of my anti pasti came from a can or a jar and were also of poor quality. The aubergines were subterranean and the slices of Vitello Tonato, like my wife's, were dried out. The sauce from the Vitello Tonato I suspected that I had never seen a tuna before, the white sweet sauce for the anti pasti was unidentifiable. The cheese was chunky thrown on top. In addition, everything was carelessly arranged. As a frequent traveler to Italy, I have to say that any nonna would be ashamed of herself. We both pushed our plates away after the third bite. This performance was topped by the absolutely disinterested and unfriendly waiter and the price of 56 euros. I have also read the good reviews and come to the conclusion that Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hide have taken over the place. It's actually a shame, because we used to enjoy coming here, but won't anymore in the future.

Not only does it taste great, but the portions are very large and the staff is very helpful.

Today we were there spontaneously and were immediately offered a free table. We had penne all'arrabbiata, the taste was ok but nothing special. For the second menu we ordered Tortellini alla panna, it wasn't a real cream sauce, just a mixed white ready-made sauce. Without much kick, without taste, just salty. Unfortunately, the ham cubes weren't very appetizing either. Just add a few cubes of ham to the sauce. Our drinks Cola & Spezi were hardly carbonated. All in all rather disappointing and we missed the restaurant's charm & taste from a few years ago.

Yesterday we spontaneously went to eat here. Even though only three tables were occupied, the waitress seemed completely overwhelmed. She took our order in a relatively unfriendly manner. The drinks came quite quickly, but were completely unchilled. However, there was no answer when asked. The starter (bruscetta) also came quite quickly. Unfortunately, we had to wait a good 3/4 hour until we finally got our main course. However, these were not two elaborate dishes but just two spaghetti dishes. The taste was good and the portion size was sufficient. We noticed three waiter changes within our 2.5 hour stay. We pointed out to the last cellar, which ultimately cashed in on us, the rather long waiting time between the starter and the main course. He just smiled at us in a friendly manner and asked whether we were paying in cash or by card, which confirmed the first impression I had with the first waitress that 80% of the staff did not speak my language sufficiently to properly receive and understand customer criticism. Or, which I don't want to assume, that there is simply no interest in taking care of the guests' concerns. A pity!!! Food good, atmosphere really nice, but the service definitely needs improvement!

The Napoli pizza was very tasty, the pasta with prawns and porcini mushrooms was boring. What's really annoying is the unfriendly, disinterested waiter. That's no fun. Especially because it is also quite expensive, not to say overpriced.

First-class food in a very nice atmosphere. Highly recommended. It's a shame that the journey is so long (550 km).

Great food, there's just too much of it

Delicious food and very attentive service. Can only be recommended!

Delicious food in a nice atmosphere. Spaces are a bit tight. When the weather is nice, sitting on the terrace is lovely.

Very good food, not too expensive, very nice service. When it's full it's also very loud. Terrace very nice. The tables inside are a bit too narrow!

A decent Italian restaurant, clean, nice people and delicious food.

Very good pizza! It was our first time here and we were happy to get a place. It's always best to reserve in advance!

Very good upscale and nice atmosphere located directly at the harbor. Went there at short notice and got a table. Good food, freshly prepared, e.g. the lasagne with salmon and spinach; We recommend! Nice family-run restaurant with typical Italian service. We'd love to come back when we're back in Eckernförde!

Friendly service. A little restless. Food didn't all come together. Quality not so good.

Absolutely recommended - super delicious food 🍝…We recommend pre-ordering!

Friendly, courteous service. Child-friendly, great atmosphere with an acceptable price-performance ratio.

Food was good as always. Reservation of space is recommended. Staff is attentive and friendly.

The food was an absolute blast, I've rarely had such a delicious "Pizza Frutti di Mare" 🤩....

Beautiful restaurant in the city center area / harbor in Eckernförde. Great ambience, very nice and courteous staff and the food is very, very tasty. Whether in the interior of the restaurant in winter or on the adjacent terrace in summer, you just feel comfortable.

Very tasty and best service, reservation is recommended

Really good pizza! Great ambience! Reasonable prices! Thanks

Called at short notice and got a table...food was very tasty, super nice service.

Great shop, the food has always been delicious...BUT. .. As far as I remember the prices from last year (2023), many dishes have become around 4 euros more expensive this year. Even if the increase in VAT certainly justifies raising prices, I don't see that 4 euros is justified. As an example, a salad was previously €12.99; At 12% more VAT makes 1.56€, a surcharge of 2.20-2.50€ would be ok, but now the salad costs 16.99€😔. I now prefer to bake my own pizza and for €17 I can make a salad for 6 people.. Too bad 😔

Delicious pizza, one of the best seafood pizzas I've ever eaten

Beautifully located Italian restaurant with friendly service in a nice atmosphere. The pizza and salad were delicious and both were well priced.

Three people were there yesterday on a Wednesday. Thank God we reserved it - it was still quite full at 6 p.m. We sat in a smaller but nice side room. It was fine there. We had pizza, fish soup and lax pasta. Pizza delicious...thin dough, just good. Fish soup 1 A with asterisk. You could tell by the concentration that no powder was being mixed into the fish soup, but rather the stock was being reduced again and again. Lots of filling...lots of fish...really good. This fish stock was probably also the basis for the lax noodles... they were also excellent... with a lot of lax in them. Thank you. The price is rather upscale...more of a restaurant than a pizzeria. There are two pizzas on the menu for > €20. Respect...that's quite a benchmark that is broken - but I didn't have any of these parts. Also on offer is carbonara for €18. Also strong...but also prepared with guancarle and not tulip bacon, as well as organic eggs...says the table. Waiters/service friendly and attentive. There was a small mistake with our food - we all had to take a drink on the house. :-)) Thanks for that. It sometimes got a little louder/beehive-like in the main room as people came in to pick up their pizza order to take out. Good thing we sat next door. Can you go there now? Yes...you can do it very well... We had a successful evening. Thanks to the crew and the restaurant.

A visit is definitely worth it. Very tasty food and friendly service. Spaghetti Carbonara like in Italy. Enough to fill you up and very, very tasty. Next time, again👌🙂

Great pizza, nice ambience, friendly service.

Food was very tasty and good. Would love to come back.

Nice atmosphere, very fitting. Our pizza was very good, nice and thin and with a crispy edge. The pasta plates that were carried past us, beautifully arranged, whet our appetite for more. Prices a little higher, but justified. A bit Italian hustle and bustle, but very friendly.

I don't know what could be improved here. Everything was just perfect! Thank you very much for the great start to your vacation!

Very nice staff and great service

Delicious food and good service. A reservation seems to make sense, the restaurant was completely full on a Monday evening in March.

Super tasty food, courteous staff, unfortunately it is very loud at times

Food and service great. Gladly again

Great service, nice shop and delicious food

Can't really complain about anything! Good food, a little expensive, but tasty. Service is great and the ambience is small, but there is a family atmosphere.

Service quite arrogant The food was rich and ok

The service was helpful and very friendly. The dishes tasted good Recommended.

Authentic food! Friendly staff. 💯🙏😘

Great food, nice attentive staff.

Best steak, everything down to the last simply the finest. Salad, pizza, perfect. It's just too loud for me in the big rooms.

Today we came to ask if there were free tables for two, but the look from the front immediately indicated a desire to stay there for at least another minute. It was very rude

Went there spontaneously for the first time yesterday, we were pleasantly surprised, very tasty food, perfect service and super cozy. We will come back in any case. Keep it up 👍🏽

Pleasant, top prices. Was really amazed. Service is very quick. The staff was happy and very grateful for tips. Solid calm clientele. GREAT! I k I'll be back several times!

The service was very courteous; a dropped fork was immediately replaced without being asked. The Tonno pizza was great, the tortellini a la panna was too dry and unfortunately not quite cooked.

I don't know if there was a change of ownership because of the new staff, but in any case we waited in vain to be served.

Very tasty food with friendly service.

Waren zum ersten Mal da und werden wohl nicht wieder kommen. Die Pizza ist nicht unser Geschmack. Fade, langweilig und nichts besonderes. Service war ok aber jeder Jeck ist anders.

Trotzdem fast alles reserviert war fanden wir ein Plätzchen. Nette Bedienung. Einziger Minuspunkt, teure Pizza. 20 Euro für die Pizza Parma habe ich noch nie bezahlt. Kommen aber wieder! 😊

Tisch reservieren empfehlenswert, waren in der 1. Januarwoche dort, fast alle Tische besetzt, schönes rustikales Lokal, freundlicher Service und sehr gute Pizzen. Leider etwas laut am Abend, zur Mittagszeit geht es eher ruhiger zu, kommen gerne wieder

Der kleine Antipasti- Vrspeisenteller war riesig und reichte locker für 2. Die Pizza war auch riesig, davon konnte ich am nächsten Tag noch essen. Die Reste werden selbstverständlich eingepackt.

Lecker, die Preise angemessen. Etwas sehr Knoblauch lastig, aber vollkommen in Ordnung.

Das Essen war mega und der Service total freundlich.

Leider hatten wir neben uns eine Weihnachtsfeier, die es zu unserem unangenehmsten Restaurantbesuch machte. (Von der Lautstärke her) Essen war leider auch überhaupt nicht lecker meine überbackenen Nudeln haben keinen Geschmack gehabt, die Soße wie als wäre es nur Wasser. Pizza Hawaii ging aber auch nichts besonderes für den doch sehr hohen Preis.

Sie sind bemüht aber 1x mittelmäßiges Essen reicht für die Zukunft

Essen OK. Gute Pizzen, Alles OK. Aber auch nicht überragend. Trotzdem, gutes Essen.

Super leckeres Essen. Die Kellnern waren alle sehr nett gewesen. Tolle Einrichtung und sehr gutes Ambiente

Super lecker, und große Portion

Sehr leckeres Essen. Toller Service und alles im Ambiente des alten Kontorhauses. Perfekt 👍

Sehr schön gelegenes Restaurant am Hafen. Die Bedienung sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Essen war ein Genuss, große Portionen und lecker angerichtet, 😋 der Geschmack einfach toll. Kommen sehr gerne wieder, Preis Leistung stimmt .

Super Italiener, wir gehen dort immer wieder gerne authentisch italienisch essen!
