littleNONNA in Köln

Little Nonna is a 12/10! Great service, great food, nice atmosphere. You can have a good conversation despite the restaurant being full. Any time! 🥰

Delicious food, very attentive staff and great ambience. Card payment is possible!

Visited Little Nonna for a work event, and it was a lively experience. The restaurant itself is spacious, with a bustling yet welcoming atmosphere, even mid-week. The staff were friendly and spoke excellent English, making the experience smooth and enjoyable. We shared a selection of antipasti to start, which was flavorful, with a nice mix of cold cuts, burrata, and vegetables. The local beer was refreshing, almost like drinking water! For mains, I went with the ravioli, which was rich and creamy – maybe a touch too oily, but definitely packed with flavor. Others who had the pasta enjoyed the unique presentation in a copper pot, and the pizzas were massive – definitely filling! Overall, I’d recommend Little Nonna for the ambiance, which is vibrant and enjoyable, perfect for a casual night out with friends. The food is good, though not exceptional, so I'd give it a solid 3/5.

Very Nice restaurant on the corner of the street, with the BEST Italian food especially the ravioli was amazing. The people who work there are proficient in English and are very Nice. It is not expensive and the toilets were clean. 😁

I tried the truffle pasta and I have to say that the taste was really outstanding. Unfortunately there was a bit too much cream for my taste. The ambience of the restaurant is simply super cool and contributes to a great overall experience. However, you should definitely make a reservation as the store is often packed. Despite the minor criticism of the pasta, we will definitely be back to try the other exciting dishes on the menu.

Very suitable for a date in Cologne, we were there without a reservation at around 7 p.m., which meant we had to get a table relatively in the middle, but that wasn't a problem and the ambience wasn't much deteriorated by the waiters/waitresses sometimes passing by and was still romantic. The food was great, there are also some very good options for vegetarians and the service was always friendly and helpful. It probably makes sense to make a reservation if you want a seat in the corner or on the edge.

Quite expensive, although hip. Waiter top. Food was already better

Cute little restaurant - excellent flavourful food - polite friendly service 👍🏻

Very tasty and very friendly staff

Honestly a really nice shop, great service and very good food. Only recommended if you want the evening to be good! :)

Gleichbleibend tolle Qualität. Der Service ist sehr gut aber trotzdem locker und entspannt. Essen ist auch nach mehrfachen Tests einwandfrei. Insgesamt ein super Lokal für einen entspannten kommunikativen Abend.

Very tasty 😋 food and good cocktails 🍸 in a very nice atmosphere.

Great restaurant. Food and price performance is great! Very nice service. Child friendly. You can also sit outside. Thanks to the radiant heater, even in autumn.

Went there very spontaneously without a reservation, but still got a small table on the edge on Saturday evening. Absolutely delicious food and very, very friendly service, very attentive :)

Really awesome cocktails at fair prices.

A dream during the day, not recommended in the evening. This applies solely to the Service. Inattentive and sometimes even unfriendly. We were served by the dark-haired little waitress. We sat in front of our empty plates for an hour. Then pointed this out and ordered another wine. Didn't come, asked again, still didn't come. When we mentioned it while paying, the answer came: "I had to collect myself after the handover. There's a lot to do now." Ah yes. Note: It was half full outside and inside. The service has to be right for the prices. Food, ambience, drinks top. Then now only during the day. Too bad.

Food good, service good. Nice little outside area.

Visually it is demanding, I like the lighting design. You can't really have a good conversation in a larger group, the music is quite loud, which is very tiring in the long run. So I left after two hours because I got a headache. The food was very good - ravioli with pumpkin - but brutally overpriced. the dessert - brownie - was average. In total I paid 55 euros, which I think is a lot for the meal plus two glasses of wine and a small water. The staff was very friendly.

Very tasty and very good service 😚

Nice atmosphere and super nice employees. The pasta dishes were also delicious and authentic but a bit too greasy. Still recommended

Casual atmosphere, very nice, competent service. 4 different pastas. All really good. 5 wooden spoons for little grandma in the kitchen.

Great ambience, great service and very tasty dishes.

Very good truffle pasta & the non-alcoholic drink Italian Passion was very tasty. The atmosphere there was also great and the waiters were all very friendly, although despite repeated requests we had to wait a long time until we could finally pay... but definitely worth a visit! 🤩

My granddaughter had dinner there with us on Friday evening, it was very tasty 😋 the price for Cologne was also right, we will come to you when we are in Cologne again, keep it up

It was my first time at LotteNonna, and today I finally got the chance to try this restaurant. Our waitress, Lisanne, was extremely friendly and accommodating, which made our visit very pleasant. The atmosphere was inviting and we really liked the service. I look forward to coming back!

We had breakfast at Little Nonna's for the first time yesterday and unfortunately we were super disappointed! The scrambled eggs with rolls were both totally dry and unfortunately super boring in taste. When asked, there was butter, which helped. Orange juice and ginger shot were completely overpriced for the size. Unfortunately the price/performance ratio wasn't right here at all...

Very nice shop, the food was great, nice service. I would come by again. Clear recommendation!

The waitress was very attentive and we were really happy with the food and service. The truffle pasta tasted very good 😊

I was there last Saturday with my friends and I can't complain. Great from start to finish and perfect for a relaxed evening with friends and family. The service and especially Tara are so personable and attentive that you can only feel comfortable. The ambience and food are so great! See you next time!

We come back every year on vacation. The food is great and plentiful. The service is always attentive and in a good mood. Great restaurant 👍👍👍

Delicious food and nice staff, the food didn't blow me away but I would come back.

Super leckeres Essen. Wir haben jeder eine Pizza gegessen und uns als Vorspeise noch Brot geteilt. Alles war sehr frisch zubereitet und schnell fertig. Wir waren mit unserer kleinen Tochter da. Sie hat einen extra Teller bekommen und es gab auch einen Wickeltisch.

Wir waren letzte Woche am frühen Abend bei diesem Italiener und konnten wg noch warmen Wetter draußen sitzen, haben es sehr genossen. Ich hatte ein kl Rindfleisch-Gericht und mein Mann ne Pizza, es war alles bestens und die Mitarbeiter:innen sehr freundlich. es war sehr viel los an dem Abend weil die diginet x stattfand und daher viele hungrige und trinkfreudige Leute unterwegs waren. Es wirkte aber niemand dadurch überfordert oder in Hektik. wir kommen sicher wieder wenn ich mal wieder in Köln zu tun habe.

Food was very tasty. Service was great too. The price is a bit high - still reasonable. Minus point - it's too narrow inside the restaurant... you sit too close to people because the tables are very close together. It's very uncomfortable, it would be great if you could change that.

Best pizza and the tomato sauce was hmmm delicious 🤤❤️❤️❤️

Super tasty and a really well organized team. But it's better to make a reservation because a lot of people seem to have the same opinion.

Super friendly, friendly service. Pizza very good, although a bit expensive.

Delicious food and friendly and good service.

Great evening yesterday at the bar, greetings & thanks to the bar manager!

We love Little Nonna! Food great, service top - However, there is one thing to complain about, which the restaurant cannot do anything about, but it is still annoying. Many homeless people come begging when you sit outside. They come very close to you. Yesterday a group of girls had their food taken off the table “Stolen” passing by. Nevertheless, we will of course come back - but sit inside ;)

Here for the 2nd time today. The food is of good quality and the portions are large enough. The service is usually attentive and focused on the guest.

Food was very tasty, but portion was too small, paid over €20 and still left the shop hungry 😪 We ate in the restaurant and it was a bit too cozy, you couldn't eat that comfortably

Our breakfast on a Sunday lunchtime was excellent. Courteous and super friendly service, delicious breakfast plates and a pleasant atmosphere. Despite the outdoor area, we sat inside despite the good weather and were lucky that it wasn't too crowded, so we were able to have a great time.

The food was great & the service was really nice, but on my last visit I was charged 5/6 euros too much? I was briefly surprised, but didn't think much of it until I did the math again later and I think I was clearly charged €5.90 too much...🥲

We had a really nice evening. She wanted to sit outside, but since there was no space available, we sat inside first. When a spot became available, we scurried outside. Unfortunately, the table tilted so much that we wanted to change seats again. That wasn't a problem either and the friendly service quickly filled up a vacant seat. The fact that the table was so crooked was due to the surface or the sidewalk on which it was standing, so you can hardly blame the restaurant for that. The food was served quickly and was very tasty. The meat was tender, the truffle noodles were creamy and very well seasoned. The drinks were also good and served quickly. The only thing that was a bit annoying was the noise outside, but that was also due to nice people with fast cars/motorcycles who had to show off how loud their engines were. So if there is something that the restaurant has neither influence nor can do anything about, you just talk a little louder. The restaurant is also easily accessible. There are parking garages within walking distance and public transport will also take you there quickly, especially in Cologne. All in all, a very nice evening with delicious food and a small (but very bearable) buzzing in the ear.

Super delicious food. The pizza was excellent. Good taste. Delicious appetizers. Attentive service. Be sure to reserve in advance ;)

We love Little Nonna and the atmosphere there 😍 the whole team does a great job and the food never disappoints!

Insanely great service, and incredibly tasty pizza and pasta. great special menu

My regular restaurant in Cologne. The service team and host read every wish from your lips. The drinks and menu couldn't be better thought out either. With seasonally changing highlights you can never go wrong.

Food delicious, service friendly, location great.

Super friendly waiters and the food is also very tasty!

The food is super delicious! Fast, friendly staff and nice atmosphere!

I just wanted to have a nice drink. I was told that there were currently no tables available and that I should sit at the bar until something was available. I was simply forgotten or they didn't care. When I asked, a waiter apologized and I was offered a table, but since it was later I was no longer able to choose freely. When I got a table I still had to go to the bar and order myself because no one took care of my order. Very bad service there

Today we ordered pizza, salad & pasta. All dishes were very tasty. The staff was really friendly and tried hard. Always my pleasure.

We love Little Nonna and the atmosphere there 😍 the whole team does a great job and the food never disappoints!

Great pizza! Very nice staff, everyone friendly and extremely competent

Soooo delicious! A piece of gold in the heart of Cologne ❤️

We haven't experienced such nice staff in a long time! the food is a 10/10 every time. always happy 😋😋

I've been there several times and am gradually trying my way through the menu. Finally a pizza tonno with onions and capers, just like it is eaten in Italy. The ambience is reminiscent of the farmhouse with beautiful old tiles on the floor. Service was great, quick and attentive. Little Nonna is now my favorite restaurant.

In addition to the delicious food and the lovely service, it is also a real insider tip for the best espresso martini in the city. In general, the drinks there are simply great, and you get great advice from Eric (who develops all the seasonal drinks himself). He really manages to transform any spirit into a delicious drink. One of the main reasons why I always enjoy coming here.

Very good. It's a bit noisy outside, but there are a lot of people there. The service was extremely friendly and attentive! I had a pizza that really surprised me in a positive way! The drinks are a bit expensive, but the atmosphere is good, especially inside, and the employees are numerous and well trained.

Great ambience, super delicious food, absolutely capable and competent staff! Always happy!

Great pizza, great staff! Both in the kitchen, in the kitchen and at the bar!

I love the food and the super nice staff at this super cute Italian place 😍

Great concept! We ate excellently and the reception and service were top class 😍

Very, very tasty food, but with one minus point. I think there should be more “simple dishes” on the menu. Many dishes are very fancy, which is cool in itself, but I just miss the classics. Still great quality and I would come again :)

Very nice busy place to enjoy good food. The only thing that is disturbing is the really absurd wine prices that are now common in gastronomy. Therefore points deducted. I understand the problems some restaurants face. But making a profit through such rip-offs is dishonest. Then I'd rather have a Kölsch.

Very nice authentic restaurant. The food was very good and the service was nice and quick. We'll definitely come by again, great to grab something to eat before the cinema. The Filmpalast is right around the corner! Note: Be sure to reserve early!

Incredibly good service and very tasty food! Always my pleasure:)

We wanted to take advantage of the breakfast special via Neotaste at the weekend. It was then said on site that it does not apply on weekends. Unfortunately, this is not stated in the conditions and is misleading. Otherwise we wouldn't have come given the relatively high prices. The same situation happened at the next table. The food we ordered was relatively tasty. Price performance is medium.

Very very good!!! Great service, very friendly staff, although true to the original, modernized Italian cuisine!!! Bravo!!!

Food is fine. But be careful when you order the drinks! There are 2 sizes of wine glasses 0,1L and 0,2L, and if you not specified they automatically bring the more expensive of 0,2L (for 9,80€!). And 7,40€ for a water bottle of 0,75L should be just illegal!! If you are alone you spend more for water and wine than for the food 😕

We ordered pizza, which was served quickly. Unfortunately the quality of the pizza was subpar. The dough wasn't crispy at all and was cold on top of that. We complained about this. The friendly waitress then took the pizza away and brought it back hot after a short time. Microwave? However, the dough didn't get any better. Finally, we ordered an espresso, which wasn't very warm either. Overall, a bad meal for 55 euros.

littleNONNA is the place to be in Cologne! Not only the food has always been DELICIOUS, but the staff have always been helpful and friendly. Great cocktails and buzzing atmosphere. Located in the middle of the city, with plenty of options to go to by walk after the meal. 5/5 recommended.

We tried breakfast there. Everything was amazing and I highly recommend it.

I really enjoy being at Little Nonna, the service is always extremely friendly and the food is always delicious. The price/performance ratio is simply right here ☺️☺️

Poor quality staff, racist behavior. Even though we waited an hour, they gave a table to those who came after us. They removed us from the table we were sitting at. It's just a matter of being a foreigner here. Disgrace. 👎 We never recommend it.

Very good food Excellent service Pleasant atmosphere A highlight

Everything was great, the heart of the store, the nice brunette at reception and her team are doing a great job.

Unfortunately the pizza wasn't particularly good, too soggy and greasy. Even the homemade lemonade was more like water than lemonade. Since we were sitting outside it was also super loud right on the street. Unfortunately I can't recommend it, even though the service was really incredibly nice!

Had a good latte machiato here. You can sit well

Great food, great ambience and very friendly service! Can only be recommended :-)

Food is very tasty and recommended. The service was great, the employees were very friendly, courteous and flexible. The location is very welcoming and stylish. In summer it's wonderful to sit outside. :-)

Great restaurant, delicious food and especially the service lives up to the name of the restaurant... Thank you very much ☺️

very great restaurant! super nice staff and really really good food for not too much money.

Very good food and good, almost too much, portions.

We wanted to have breakfast with NeoTaste at Little Nonna and I called and asked when breakfast would be available. After I was told by 12 p.m., we were there at 11:46 and they said that the kitchen was no longer making breakfast. Apparently the last round was until 11:45 and we didn't get any more breakfast. It's a shame when a restaurant is so inflexible. We were really happy.

World class store, top service, very nice experience. Always my pleasure!

Great store, great food, great people. Conclusion: everything is great!

Highly recommended because of fast service and delicious food!

Very tasty pizza, fast and good service

Although you sit very close together, all the employees create the most beautiful atmosphere, especially the lady at the reception as well as the little waitress and the blonde, friendly waiter who made it a special stag party. We'll be back LG :)

Very unfriendly staff. Especially the waitress outside, please be careful about which employees you hire in the future. We were very disappointed.

I love the breakfast menu of littleNonna. Everything is so delicious and perfectly designed. The staff are very friendly and nice I enjoyed everything Strongly recommended

Completely thrilled. Were in Cologne with a total of 8 people and spontaneously came across this restaurant. Super friendly service, great atmosphere. Food, drinks, everything perfect. Incredible pizza, delicious pasta and bruschetta from another planet. We'll see each other again next time we visit Cologne. Many greetings from Plauen/Vogtland

Very tasty, atmosphere is great! We often go to the theater next door and like to eat here beforehand. Have often visited the restaurant with friends who come from out of town. Everyone was super happy. The best thing is that all pizzas can also be ordered as a vegan option. Totally nice, lovely waiters, despite the stress and the full shop. It's a pleasure !

Great new spot check it out, lots of people watching.

Everything here is perfect.Food and drinks are awesome. I strongly recommand it😍

The three of us were there on July 9th, 2024. Not the first time. But the first time I was treated SO RUDE by a waiter (black hair, earring). What was his problem? No hello, no nothing, throws the card down and thinks you'll say some stupid sayings? If someone doesn't like their job, then leave it alone. Your job as a waiter is to be friendly. Incredibly honest.

Food was quite good, service was outstanding. Super attentive friendly waiter (the one with the black curls and the tattoos), will definitely come back. Lg
