Little Italy - Osnabrück in Osnabrück

A really cute restaurant! The service was very attentive. The pizza wasn't overloaded with cheese and therefore tasted very good 👍 We'd love to come back!

Ah yes, Litle Italie, comme ci, comme ça. My family and I neither liked nor enjoyed the food at Litle Italie, and we will avoid the place in the future. There are plenty of much better restaurants in Osnabrück and the surrounding area, and we assume that the reviews here are not always accurate. See for yourself and take a closer look and compare them with other restaurants in the Osnabrück region. We leave you with three personal alternative recommendations for international, affordable, and authentic food in Osnabrück: • Pizzeria 'La Puglia', an authentic pizzeria with a wood-fired oven! Highly recommended on Sutthauser Str.: Pizza Margherita, Pizza Tonno, or Lasagna! • Aroma Restaurant Ocakbasi, Johannisstr. Highly recommended: pizza, pide, grilled dishes, or the Aroma Burger from the charcoal grill! Last but not least (on the recommendation of a friend), a little insider tip for the truly daring: the small, unassuming Chinese restaurant at Iburger Straße 7: • Kim Long, we recommend this delicious dish: Double-baked pork, a poem! See for yourself! Best regards and Bon Appetit! H.P. Rosenkranz

Unfortunately, the price-performance ratio wasn't right for us at all. What a shame!

We visited you for the first time today. (A visit to the zoo left us with the usual hunger afterward.) We were all thrilled. Osnabrück isn't a small city, but we hit the nail on the head at the Bull. Wow, wow, wow, the little greeting from the kitchen was very sweet. And then the pizzas—they look... absolutely amazing 😉, the taste—amazing, you can't get any better than that... we thought, but there could be even better, namely... the service, super friendly, and the pizza chef, amazing. What would our Hans Rosenthal say... You're brilliant. So if we're in Osnabrück again, you're a must for us 👍👍

Small, manageable menu, unfortunately no pasta and little for vegetarians

Waiting two hours for two pizzas is simply too long. The pizzas weren't cooked properly afterward. Maybe it was just a bad day. However, I find four shrimp on a whole pizza for €21 more than a little cheeky.

We had a great visit, found a spot spontaneously, and the pizza was delicious and served super quickly! The chef was very helpful in accommodating my intolerances.

We spontaneously went there one evening and were immediately greeted warmly. The pizzas we chose were delicious—probably the best pizza I've ever tasted in a restaurant in Osnabrück. Thank you so much!

We probably just had a bad day. We waited almost two hours for our food and then left it because the pizza wasn't cooked through. The very friendly waitress offered to put it back in the oven, but after such an enormous wait, we politely declined. The service was very thin, but still very friendly and accommodating.

The wine was excellent and went perfectly with the food

The burger was large, juicy, and delicious. One of the best I've ever eaten.

In summer, a slimmed-down menu and, unfortunately, no pizza. The shop is nice and gives a good first impression. The selected dishes were very tasty and generously portioned. The pre-service greeting from the kitchen is no longer a given, and it was also delicious. The prices, despite the nice ambiance, were unfortunately a bit too high overall. The service could have been better. Unfortunately, the dishes weren't served exactly as ordered. There was no follow-up to check whether everything was satisfactory. Having to report to the cashier to pay feels more like fast food. Here, too, the rule applies: if the price is high, the service must also be top-notch. I expect the service to come to the customer, not the other way around. All in all, a nice shop with good food, but significantly overpriced. (Pasta dish €21, 0.2l ginger ale €5, latte macchiato €6). I wouldn't even pay that on Sylt with a view of the water. I might try the pizza again on a second attempt, but it won't be enough to become a regular Italian restaurant.

The food was very good, and the pasta and pizza were incredibly delicious, but the desserts were simply too small and too expensive! Please reconsider the portions. Or make them cheaper. The panna cotta is very easy and inexpensive to make, and so is the tiramisu. It was delicious.

The food was absolutely delicious, the best spaghetti carbonara! For the price, I expect attentive service, and unfortunately, that wasn't the case, even though it was pretty empty during our visit.

The evening started promisingly. We arrived about 20 minutes before our reservation time, but were able to be seated right away. The menus arrived promptly, and our drink orders were taken. The drinks arrived fairly quickly, but we waited about 45 minutes for the food. The welcome from the kitchen was good. The portions were modest; the spaghetti carbonara was tasty, but it was heavily peppered, which overshadowed everything else. The pasta with salmon wasn't great either; the salmon had died twice. The staff did their best and were very friendly. Overall, though, I wouldn't recommend it.

Once again, my husband and I are completely enchanted by this wonderful restaurant. This is love in every way. The food really couldn't be better, and the service tonight...wonderful, the attentiveness and hospitality of the two ladies were simply fantastic. For us, Little Italy is the best restaurant of its kind in Osnabrück and the surrounding area. We look forward to our next visit.

The pizza was good—fresh and delicious. We found it a bit pricey, but the pleasant atmosphere and friendly service made the visit enjoyable.

Nice little restaurant. Good food, excellent service. Stylishly decorated, although a bit too dark for my taste.

A true highlight in Osnabrück! We were completely thrilled with Little Italy. The food was not only incredibly delicious, but also lovingly prepared – you can simply taste the passion that goes into the cooking here. The service was excellent: super friendly, attentive, and pleasantly relaxed. We especially appreciated the warm gesture of our waiter, who immediately brought our dog a bowl of water to the table; that's something you don't take for granted and shows how animal-friendly and guest-oriented the team here is. We felt completely at home and will definitely be back. Highly recommended! 🍝🐾🍷

We ordered for the first time this weekend for a larger group. It was ready to the minute and was absolutely delicious! It was the best pizza I've ordered in Osna so far - definitely not the last time! We were also very pleasantly surprised by the interior design and want to eat there again sometime. Highly recommended, with its open kitchen.

Little Italy is a true piece of Italy in the heart of Osnabrück – where authentic Italian cuisine meets a family atmosphere. The restaurant is lovingly decorated and exudes a cozy atmosphere, making you feel immediately welcome. Particularly noteworthy is the friendly and attentive staff, whose charm and wit ensure a thoroughly enjoyable evening. The menu offers a fantastic selection of homemade pasta, crispy pizzas, and delicious desserts, all prepared according to original family recipes. The ingredients are fresh, the dishes are prepared with great attention to detail, and taste simply fantastic. The coffee and desserts are also highly recommended – a perfect end to a successful restaurant visit. The prices are fair and offer excellent value for money. The family-friendly size of the restaurant is particularly pleasant, creating a relaxed and intimate atmosphere. If you're looking for an authentic Italian restaurant with a feel-good factor, this is the place for you. I'd be happy to return and can wholeheartedly recommend Little Italy!

Our son played in a soccer tournament in Hollage, and we stayed overnight in Osnabrück. While looking for an Italian restaurant, we came across Little Italy because it was within walking distance of our hotel. On the way there, we were initially skeptical because the restaurant is located in an industrial area. However, when we arrived, we were greeted by the very friendly owner and equally friendly service. The menu is typically Italian, with pizza and pasta dishes and a sufficient selection of appetizers. The food was simply phenomenal! We had a truffle pasta and a spaghetti carbonara. Both pasta dishes were spot-on, with more than enough truffles on the pasta, and the spaghetti carbonara was prepared according to an original Italian recipe—simply a dream. Add to that a delicious aperitif and wine, and we had a more than successful evening. A definite recommendation!

Delicious truffle pizza, Very nice service, nice pub

Very nice little restaurant. The staff is very friendly. You should make a reservation.

A street where you wouldn't expect to find the shop. Slightly higher prices, but tasty food. Card payments only!

Very tasty pizza! Very cozy atmosphere. Great host!

Very cozy pizzeria. The food was delicious. The service was also friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is pleasant – ideal for a relaxed evening with friends or family. I'd love to come back!

Nice little local whose staff also seem to enjoy their work. The food is very tasty, the greeting from the kitchen is a very nice surprise. Not the cheapest in terms of price, but you can treat yourself every now and then. In my opinion, the drinks in particular shouldn't have any more than the "usual" prices. I didn't think it was justified that these were significantly more expensive even though there was nothing "special" about them (the main reason for the star deduction). It says on the board when you come in that only card payments are possible, but the information is quite far down on the website (I actually didn't see that until late). It wasn't a problem for me, but for people who prefer to pay with cash, this might be a little clearer. Otherwise: Clear recommendation to go out to eat!

Visited here for the first time today. TOP food, good, friendly, warm service. Stylish ambience. Thank you.

We come here regularly and are always thrilled. Absolute recommendation!

Food, drink, staff top! Not zero eighteen fifteen! We definitely recommend Little Italy!!!

Yes, recommended. Carbonara very good. And the pizza al cioccolato.

Why is the number of stars actually limited to 5? I would have liked to have given more. Everything is just right here. See you soon :)

Here food is lived and celebrated. Really good!

I've eaten better and the business has absolutely nothing to do with Italy, not even the owners or chefs are of Italian origin, the pizza was completely burnt at the bottom that an Italian wouldn't serve to a customer.

A very charming Italian restaurant with an authentic atmosphere. Our drinks and pizzas were delicious, and we received a small welcome from the chef beforehand – very thoughtful!

Delicious pizza, very good service, helped us choose the menu. Showed that true hospitality still exists.

A very cozy little restaurant with a "living room" atmosphere. The host and his team are very accommodating. Recommendations are made and there is also a “casual” conversation with the guests. The food is super delicious and prepared with love. In short: Thank you for the lovely evening, we'll be back

The food was very good as usual. The service was very attentive. Unfortunately the noise was unbearable. Conversation at the table was completely impossible. A company canteen, on the other hand, is pure luxury. Obviously, the focus here is not on the well-being of the guest, but rather on maximizing profits by cramming as many guests as possible into the restaurant. Unfortunately it was a bad evening for my family. Very unfortunate.

The food was very good as always. However, the ambience left a lot to be desired today. The noise in the restaurant was unbearable, probably because too many extra tables were set up to accommodate more guests. Unfortunately, the service also suffered as the kitchen was obviously overwhelmed. Very unfortunate. My recommendation: more class instead of quantity, then guests will be happy to come back.

We waited over an hour for our drinks and food. No one asked for new drinks or desserts. Unfortunately, very disappointing.

Top service (felt extremely comfortable with you!), really nice atmosphere and very tasty food! We'll definitely be back. Keep it up!

You get a very warm welcome and the food is really excellent! Very cozy and modern restaurant. We look forward to it every time we are there!

I had dinner with friends at your place today. Starter, main course and dessert a dream of detail and freshness. Everything served with love, really delicious! My insider tip in Osnabrück!

Extremely attentive and absolutely friendly service. It is certainly rare to find such employees. The food/pizza is also great. Highly recommended, even if a little higher priced. I will definitely come here more often.

Great food, very nice service. We'd love to come back.

A great restaurant for authentic Italian cuisine in Osnabrück. The food is always excellently seasoned, full-bodied, tasty and imaginative. Extra requests and questions are no problem. Children are welcome and receive a warm welcome. Good selection of vegetarian food. A hidden place, far from the city center, that is definitely worth visiting!

Hammer! We ordered pizza, pasta and dessert. 10 out of 10 🤩

The best pizza and pasta in Osnabrück! Great service! Cozy atmosphere. Thanks for the great evening. 🤗

I was there a few weeks ago! The food was delicious and definitely recommended! Unfortunately I am disappointed with the service! I waited a very long time (90+ minutes) for my food... it can happen, the problem was that many guests came after us and were served beforehand! We're talking about some tables here! This shouldn't happen in a crowd! I'll come back and take another look, maybe something went wrong that day! Recommended for food

Very nice Italian restaurant worth discovering! Stylish and quiet ambience with discreet music so you can have a relaxed conversation. I find the furnishings very tasteful. In summer there are also tables outside. When making the reservation, I discussed my intolerances and everything was dealt with in a very straightforward manner, including an alternative appetizer in advance. The staff is very attentive without being intrusive. It was a very tasty and cozy evening.

Very tasty pizza, service super nice

Little Italy offers authentic Italian cuisine with fresh ingredients and lovingly prepared dishes. The atmosphere is cozy, ideal for any occasion, and the staff is friendly. Absolutely recommended!

A masterpiece of Italian cuisine! The service was very attentive and warm. We'd love to come back!

“Bode Solarstrom Germany” had its Christmas party yesterday in Little Italy. I don't know how it could have been better. Various starters (carpaccio, vitello tonnato, Bündnerfleisch, ham, salami, shrimp, grilled vegetables), followed by grilled Wagyu beef in 2 different cuts. After an appropriate break, we had beef fillet with potato gratin and leaf spinach. Accompanied by excellent white and red wine. At the end, a dessert plate with various delicacies was served. All in all, rightly full marks!

It was so incredibly delicious. And very good service. Very, very nice service. Many dishes were works of art.

I've been looking for delicious carbonara for years and pinned my hopes on the name. Unfortunately none. Unfortunately it is also very loud there. Drinks were not refilled. Attention seemed to be more focused on regular customers. Cleanliness is very good. Everyone is very friendly.

Positively surprised. Great conditions with advice and charm. Quality of ingredients fresh and in a good combination. Even though I'm rarely in Osnabrück .. the visit must be repeated. Can only be recommended. Super

Great, local. Small, which makes it very nice for a stay where you can have a good time. Invites you to linger for a longer period of time. Nice service, very good food with a good selection, including desserts and really great coffee! We had a wonderful evening and would love to come back :-)

We visited Alex for the first time on Saturday and were thrilled. Everything from the food to the ambience was excellent. We will definitely come back and strongly recommend it.

Super friendly and funny staff. The kitchen was also great.

We had dinner in this pizzeria this evening and absolutely loved it! The restaurant is cozy and lovingly furnished, which makes you immediately feel at home. It's not too big, which creates a pleasant and familiar atmosphere. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive. We ordered six pizzas, all of which tasted great - fresh ingredients and perfectly prepared! In terms of price, the whole thing is absolutely fair. We will definitely be back and can highly recommend this pizzeria.

Nice little restaurant with a great atmosphere. A reservation is clearly recommended. The service was friendly and attentive and, in addition to the pizzas, the greetings from the kitchen were particularly delicious. There is a small selection of vegetarian dishes and special requests are no problem. Great value for money!

Here you really feel like a guest. The employees are very competent and friendly. The service is very attentive without being intrusive. A nice word for every table. The little greeting from the kitchen may have been a given in the past, but it certainly isn't anymore and is therefore all the more pleasantly surprising. The food itself was excellent and the atmosphere was pleasant. We will definitely recommend the restaurant and would be happy to come back ourselves.

Finally a good Italian restaurant again. Excellent and absolutely recommended, even a greeting from the kitchen is served, service was nice and courteous, personal greeting from the boss (if it was him). Mega fond of children. Ordered pizza Margherita for our son and it came in a butterfly shape. Furnishings and design very tasteful and comfortable. Good wine recommendation from the boss, appetizers and food were very good in terms of taste and quality. Great value for money! Nothing to complain about, definitely come here more often

We went to Little Italy with friends for the first time today and were very impressed by the beautiful atmosphere. We would also like to give the chef a big compliment, we all enjoyed it very much and what is particularly worth mentioning is the really nice and courteous service there. We'll definitely be back.

The food was super delicious, the staff was really friendly. Totally worth 5 stars.

Very good food at a very fair price! Great service…! Changing weekly offers...

Authentic furnishings with loving details. The daily menu is always a good recommendation, and the quality of the products speaks for itself. The service is extremely friendly and is happy to fulfill any special requests. A real insider tip in Osnabrück!

Had a great evening here. The staff and the owner Alex put in a lot of effort and that made all the difference. The food was also absolutely delicious and we will come back often. Really great authentic shop, big recommendation!

#favoriteItalian Alex greets every guest as if they were his own family. The pasta carbonara is a dream, a 6 out of 5. Extra request or undecided about the dish - no problem! Ask, it's quick 😅 seasonal daily specials. The chef, who personally brings the "greetings from the kitchen" 🫶🏼 to every table, and the girls in service, all do a great job and bring a piece of Italy & dolce vita to Neulandstrasse. My heart and my dolce vita remain here

“Little Italy” says it all! Service, food and ambience: everything is perfect. Great evening, thank you very much!

It's hard for me to describe how incredibly delicious the food is because that's a huge understatement! What was particularly positive was the child-friendliness and the absolutely friendly service! Great recommendation!! :)))

Warm service, incredibly delicious food, always a pleasure!

It was our first time there and we liked it straight away. Nice service and delicious food rounded off a lovely evening.

We had a great evening with really excellent food. The wait was just a bit long.

Really nice cozy restaurant. Friendly attentive service!!

A great new discovery, great ambience and atmosphere. We ate very well and were served very friendly and❤️. We are thrilled! Thanks to Alex and his entire team! 👍 Keep it up.... See you soon Reiner and Gisela

A real little Italy in Germany. I had the Shrimp Pasta and it was very delicious and with a generous amount of shrimps on my plate. I want to try their Pizza next visit. Yes we will come back again soon.

We had a very nice evening with you. The food: Very tasty! And quality that you can also taste. Both in the ingredients and in the preparation. I'll try more than just the pizza on my next visits ;) The little greeting from the kitchen was also very good. Tip: If you are missing ingredients / there are too many, a different variation, something you would like is not on the menu? Ask! It's definitely worth it :) Service: Extremely attentive, courteous, friendly. Absolutely perfect. Ambience: Little Italy, which looks quite inconspicuous from the outside, turns out to be a real diamond. Inside everything is so lovingly, detailed, modern, etc. furnished. Very consistent. There is also an outdoor area. I hope you stay for a long time - I'll definitely be back more often.

Very friendly and attentive staff. Very tasty food. The prices are reasonable. Somewhat unusual location for a restaurant.

Extremely tasty pizzas and very friendly service. Best pizza place in Osna.

Wonderfully relaxed atmosphere, so that we were able to spend a great, cozy and, above all, very tasty evening here, even with a small child. A pleasantly 'small' menu, but which offered enough choices. Both food and service were impeccable!

It was my first time at "Little Italy" and it was a really nice evening with excellent value for money. The food was really good and came quickly. The service staff was really friendly and the atmosphere is very pleasant. This was definitely not my last visit.

Food was very good. Waiting time a little too long. Waited an hour for starters

We were passing through and stopped here spontaneously because of the positive reviews. Starters and main courses were very good! Our children were also completely thrilled. The incredibly friendly service was particularly outstanding! Cheers!

Our visit to Little Italy in Osnabrück was a complete success! The bruschetta starter was fresh and delicious, as was the gnocchi with gorgonzola and beef strips, which was a real highlight as the main course. The margarita was also perfectly prepared. The food was very, very tasty and we felt completely comfortable. Special praise goes to the friendly and attentive staff, who made our evening even more pleasant. We'll definitely come back!

Service was great! Everyone was attentive and you could tell that it was important to them that the guest was satisfied. The food was also delicious. Unfortunately the carbonara had too much pepper on it and the noodles weren't al dente. Rather soft. We were probably just a bit unlucky. But complaining here is also at a high level. What we think is great: traditional carbonara: with egg and no cream! So great! We will be back definitely.

When I go to a pizzeria I eat a Napoli, simple, classic Pi but also difficult to top, it can quickly become too salty... The service here was perfect! Friendly and attentive service, the boss came to the table with his Italian carisma and humor and a free focaccia... Friendly and tasty can only recommend.

We were greeted very warmly and our dog was immediately brought water. The food was very tasty, unfortunately we couldn't eat it all, but we took the rest with us. All in all, we felt very comfortable in a small restaurant that invites you to linger. We also found the cook/waiter particularly charming, who leaned out of the window at the end and asked if it was tasty. A little bit of Italy in Osnabrück, simply charming.

Very interestingly decorated restaurant with very tasty food and drinks. The service is also very good.

The service alone deserves at least 5 stars! The atmosphere is very authentic, the boss and employees are very warm, humorous and hospitable. We were there yesterday with some colleagues and found all the dishes delicious and of excellent quality! Everything was clean and lovingly prepared. Finally a great, real Italian in OS ♡

By far the best pizza in town. Service and ambience also top. ❤️ The store is a 10 out of 10🔝

Great shop, great food and the owner is such a friendly and funny guy! I'd love to come by again!

We booked the restaurant for a 40th birthday - it was wonderful! The ambience, the service and especially the food! It was an absolutely successful evening and all guests were extremely satisfied! Many thanks to Alex and his team for giving us an unforgettable birthday. Strong recommendation for events, but also for any other occasion!

Great location with plenty of free parking. Unfortunately we couldn't redeem our city for two voucher because the boss wasn't there - very annoying that no one else knew how to redeem the voucher. As compensation we got two cocktails which was super thoughtful!!! In terms of taste, our pizzas really were 5 out of 5 stars, great base, crispy and thin with lots of toppings just like a good Italian pizza should be. Also visually just great. Beforehand there were a few appetizers with a dip - which was a bit too garlicky for our taste, but still delicious! Unfortunately, one of the waitresses wasn't quite as familiar with everything, but the others were even more so. Really cheap for the size of the pizza and the ingredients. Here, as stated on the homepage, the food is prepared with love! We will definitely come back!

We were there for the second time yesterday and we are thrilled. The food is fantastic and the service is really outstanding. So far we are still enjoying the fact that there are more regular customers due to the location. But that will soon change at this level in Osnabrück. The next visit is already planned.

Very, very nice owners and staff. Food looks and tastes excellent! Were there for the first time with 6 people. We'd love to come back.

Very good quality food! Service is OK. The music was definitely inappropriate and may only attract people who want to party afterwards. The restaurant is nicely decorated, but could use a little more individuality. We had a lovely evening, thank you very much.

We were immediately warmly welcomed and everything went great until the end. The food was surprisingly good and matched the wonderfully inviting atmosphere. The ingredients are really fresh and prepared with love. The pizzas tasted really great and you can tell that the chef knows his stuff. Seldom experienced such good service. We'd love to come back. 👍
