Lo spaghetto d’oro in Esslingen am Neckar

The food tasted really good, nothing to complain about! The service was unfortunately nonsensical. We weren't even asked if we wanted anything else; people just kept walking past us. My beer came in a wine glass?! I've never lived a lifetime. And the two waiters didn't have a friendly smile on their faces either. So, 5-star food - 1-star service.

Drinks a bit expensive but I understand that in the middle of the city

Great. I don't usually give reviews or comments. But when you're so friendly and offer such delicious food, you simply deserve it. This was our first time at this restaurant in Esslingen. The restaurant owner immediately conveyed the flair of Italy in a friendly manner, even with broken German. Fantastic. He brought us three of his personal favorite wines and let us try them. We then chose one and bought a whole bottle. The meal, with two pasta dishes (pasta from the Parmesan cheese and pasta with salsiccia), was phenomenal. Light but very flavorful. We also shared a pinsa with mortadella burrata and pistachio pesto. Awesome! We were very happy and would love to come back. Thank you very much.

A super nice restaurant with a great location in the city center. You can sit comfortably outside and even just have a coffee. The coffee tastes very, very good, and the desserts are excellent. The owner, Riccardo, takes care of his guests, and Terence is super nice and attentive. They also have good limoncello 🍋 Bella Italia in the heart of Esslingen 🇮🇹

Ahmad was very friendly and helpful. Would gladly come again.

I had a pasta dish from the daily menu, accompanied by an Italian beer. Although it was served in a red wine glass, which was rather unusual, it was delicious, as was the well-prepared pasta dish. I followed it up with a glass of red wine, which also tasted very good, in a matching glass. The service was always friendly and attentive, and I never had to wait long for anything. Whether you sit outside on the street or inside, it has a cozy, pleasant atmosphere. I highly recommend this small restaurant.

There are no gluten-free pasta dishes.

We've been here several times and have been completely satisfied every time. The food is very good – especially the pinsa and the truffle pasta are highly recommended. The owners and staff are always very friendly and try to accommodate every request. We love coming here!

Scandal! Shitty parking situation in the city center 😂😂😂

Very nice conditions, delicious food and a lovely atmosphere.

Excellent food and attentive service! We enjoyed a thoroughly enjoyable evening and would love to return!

Worst restaurant I have ever seen in my life, I don't even give the service a star, the employees there really need to be trained on how to deal with people, it's really cheeky, it was the wrong decision for me to eat there, even after the bad reception from the waiter I still didn't eat and ate at his neighbor's place, it was definitely not comparable to that, you are supposed to work in the forest with the animals but you have no chance with people.

I love this place, great Italien food.. service is superb 👌... highly recommended

Really unfriendly service. Were there with our family. We even ordered from a lady and 10 minutes later an employee came and sent us away and said they should do it… never again

Unfortunately disappointing - rude treatment of guests Today we were in the café with 9 people and sat outside. About 5 of us also ordered something. At around 8 p.m. a waiter came to us - unfortunately very rude - and said he had to clean up outside now, we couldn't sit outside anymore and had to leave. None of us had a problem implementing ourselves or changing something. Instead of politely asking us to take a seat inside or telling us that there were other seats outside, we were simply sent away - without any consideration. What was particularly unfortunate was that my grandmother was there because she doesn't walk well - changing clothes was particularly difficult for her. We really would have liked to continue spending our evening there, but the waiter's tone just didn't make us feel welcome. It's a shame - we were actually looking forward to a nice evening together. (Of course we didn't receive our order)

Everything is super mega delicious, always with pleasure Very nice staff

Just wanted to order us 2 hot chocolates, the “waiter” without saying hello just “10 minutes”…. He asked in a completely unfriendly manner whether the two people behind were also with us. He was also totally unfriendly to these two people who asked if there was steak here, as there was a lot of large meat in the food display. He then just said, “We don’t have steak here, we’re in an Italian restaurant.” The two then left without a word. And we did after we asked again whether he really needed 10 minutes for 2 hot chocolates. Never again!

I had the great pleasure of visiting Lo Spaghetto d’Oro and I absolutely love this Italian restaurant. As soon as you enter, you immediately feel transported to an authentic Italian atmosphere - warm, inviting and designed with loving details. The ambience is perfect for a cozy dinner with friends, family or even for a romantic evening for two. The food was simply outstanding. The pasta was perfectly al dente, freshly made and with a variety of delicious sauces that took the taste of each dish to a new level. I was particularly impressed by the homemade specialties - you can tell that they cook here with a lot of love and passion. The ingredients are fresh and high quality, which makes the taste clearly noticeable. The staff was extremely friendly, attentive and accommodating. They met our every need and made the service a real pleasure. The waiting times were pleasantly short and you felt very well looked after throughout your entire visit. Overall, Lo Spaghetto d’Oro is highly recommended for anyone who wants to enjoy authentic Italian cuisine in a beautiful atmosphere. It is a place where you immediately feel comfortable and would like to come back. I can only warmly recommend this restaurant and am already looking forward to my next visit!

Delicious food, fine wines, very friendly service

Super nice service, delicious food for a fair price and great location! :) Everything was great

The food was delicious. The employees are very attentive and kind. I liked the atmosphere. The prices are reasonable. I will definitely visit again. I recommend it.

0 stars for the food and the rude staff! Anyone who values their health will be happy to stay away from this delivery service.

We’ve been here three times in. It’s our local go-to for a nice eat-in experience. The staff are great and patient with our German. The menu has English subtitles. The food is fresh and delish.

Spaghetti d'oro is to be taken literally here, tutto molto bene!

The three of us visited the restaurant and had a very small table. Well, all the tables are small, but that doesn't make it any better. The food was rather average. The service too. It is also very loud in the restaurant. There was no soap in the toilet. I will not recommend the restaurant.

Why 3 stars? Food and service great. I can't complain. 3 stars because of the water prices 6.9 euros for 0.75 l of water 😱😱😱. In my opinion, far too expensive. Water must not cost more than 3 euros. For me that's a reason not to eat in a restaurant like this again. I like to drink a beer or a wine but I also want to have a bottle of water on the table if I'm thirsty. Not for 6.9 euros. When I left the restaurant I went to a kebab shop to buy water for 2 euros. Really a shame.

Zwei mal getestet, wir kommen nicht wieder. Als sechs Personen sind wir am Ende mit Wut im Bauch nachhause gegangen. Das Restaurant ist sehr schön eingerichtet, das wurde 1/1 vom Vorgänger übernommen. Das essen ist gut bis Okay. Service schlecht und extrem unfreundlicher Chef. Ich bin 1-2 Mal die Woche Essen, habe eine Gastronomische Ausbildung und habe Jahre in der Gastronomie verbracht. Wäre der Chef (Und ich nenne ihn Absichtlich nicht Gastgeber, denn das ist er nicht) nicht da gewesen wäre es okay gewesen. Service kam eben einmal zum Aufnehmen und dann zum Abladen, danach nie wieder, Rechnung mussten wir dann an der Theke anfordern. Aber sein Verhalten geht absolut nicht. Man merkt ziemlich schnell, dass er überhaupt keine Lust auf Gäste hat und wird sofort sehr launisch und beleidigend. Das Essen ist sehr gut! Auch wenn die Nudeln als frische hausgemachte auf der Karte stehen und man dann die üblichen Packungen in der Küche stehen sieht. Daher Okay und lasse ich durchgehen. Extrem schade! Tolles Lokal, gutes Essen (Zwar nicht wie versprochen frisch, aber Geschmacklich lecker) Der Inhaber sollte sich hier vielleicht eher zurückziehen, Buchhaltung oder Küche. Im Service hat diese arrogante, freche Person absolut nichts zu suchen. Ich mir meine Freunde reden jetzt, Wochen danach Noch von diesem Paradebeispiel „So macht man es nicht“ Zwei mal getestet und zwei mal beleidigt worden.

Kind and friendly employees. Also, the ice creams are delicious. The waffle is very light and the light orange flavor inside adds a different flavor. Waffle size is really good, it comes as a big waffle😄😋

Accoglienza eccellente posto impeccabile il nostro calice di vino non era mai vuoto piatti ben curati semplicemente ottimi. Ci ritornerei sicuramente i miei figli lo adorano. Da consigliare …ci ritorneremo sicuramente….

Never again!!!! The boss was absolutely rude and arrogant to us, so we got up and left without eating. It's a shame, we always enjoyed going to the Italian restaurant that was there before. And we've never experienced anything like that before. One star is still too many.

Unfortunately the food wasn't good. The waiter was totally unfriendly and arrogant. Will never eat there again.

Food very good. Unfortunately it has nothing to do with the nice Italian restaurant around the corner. Table to table, which is probably due to the restaurant being in a pedestrian zone. Deserved something better...

Food was OK. However, service was poor. Unfortunately the waiter was very unfriendly and the wrong dish was charged. When this was pointed out, the waiter became even less friendly. Unfortunately a big disappointment with all the good reviews…

Authentic Italian restaurant with a great lunch menu Had the Pasta Amatriciana from the small but delicious lunch menu, highly recommended! The operators are also full-blooded restaurateurs and work on their restaurant with heart and soul. The new location offers a good setting for a cozy Italian meal.

Great pasta. Limited menu but fills your stomach and heart

We were there as a large group and were thrilled! The service was super friendly and very attentive, the food was great, and the timing was perfect! Highly recommended!

We were here over the weekend and had a really great time! The antipasti sharing platter was an absolute highlight!

Good spaghetti with truffles for a high price and unfortunately a very small portion.

We visited this wonderful restaurant with international guests. The coordination, service, and food were all perfect. Our guests were more than happy. The appetizers, pasta & pinsa, tiramisu, and drinks were all delicious and made with love. Fantastic - thank you so much!!!

We can highly recommend the Spaghetto d'oro. Both in the evening and for lunch. The starters are super tasty, but the various pasta dishes are also great (various ravioli or parmesan spaghetti). We really enjoy coming here and enjoying the delicious food.

We celebrated our Christmas party at this restaurant and were absolutely thrilled! The food was outstanding – every course was a delight. The organization was flawless, and everything was perfectly prepared. The team was friendly and attentive, making us feel completely at home. We are all extremely satisfied and can warmly recommend the restaurant. Thank you for such a wonderful evening!

G E S C H M A C K S E X P L O S I O N. Pinsa Salami

Super cozy restaurant with friendly service. The food was also great, I can recommend the pinsa with salmon and the truffle spaghetti. Everything first class!

The spaghetti was excellent. Unfortunately I didn't really like the Insalata verdure e bufala. The service was friendly and competent.

Very tasty food and super nice service. We'd love to come back.

Best pasta! Pasta is made fresh on site and served in the most delicious sauces. Gladly again and again!

Granola wheel spaghetti with truffle... Heavenly.... Unfortunately the white bread was initially dry. The fresh bread was the perfection. I'll be back! 😃

Top restaurant in a central location in Esslingen. Above all, the pasta is a dream, the guys do it really well. Clear recommendation!

Very tasty Italian restaurant, very good portions. Very nice and cozy furnishings and a good location. Nice staff

Nice fast food, I recommend stopping by for a snack.

Delicious truffle pasta made from a parmesan wheel - We really appreciated the great food and service here

Very friendly and the food is delicious. We had spaghetti in a parmesan loaf with truffles. It was very good and the portions were very sufficient.

Nice place, and the food is amazing. Excellent, fantastic managers.

I was here today with my son. We ordered the salad that was offered for lunch. However, there was no vegetarian version of the salad on the lunch menu, so we skipped the ham, but paid the same price for it. When the salad arrived it was just a ready-made mix from the supermarket, already washed and cleaned from the discounter...at least that's what it looked like. The salad was barely dressed. The service is also very bad. Tiramisu was offered on the menu, but wasn't available. The crowning achievement, however, came at the end. I wanted to pay, but no one came. When I got up and wanted to go inside, the employee came and asked for 22 euros, but suddenly corrected himself to 24 euros in the same sentence. I asked for an invoice because I wasn't presented with one. He then asked if I wanted it straight away or after payment. But then realized that it was probably appropriate to get the bill. Instead of the mentioned 22 euros or 24 euros, it suddenly became 25.30 euros. When I asked the staff how it could be that it cost 22 euros, then 24 euros and then 25.30 euros, I was told that I didn't believe him and asked for an invoice and that the paper on the invoice also cost money. Wow - I've never experienced anything like that. Conclusion: Very poor service and the food was of average quality at best!

Small restaurant with great starters and excellent spaghetti with truffles. A very nice wine was recommended to us. All in all a very nice evening.

Best place for a lunch break if you are having a trip to Esslingen.

Fantastic food in a cozy atmosphere with friendly staff. Particularly noteworthy are the fresh pasta and the pinsa. Perfect for a little break from everyday life.

Very fine, small restaurant in the heart of Esslingen. Right from the start we come to the restaurant for afterwork. I'm always satisfied 😀 food is very good and tasty. Price performance 👌🏻!

We love this restaurant and really enjoy coming here. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is very cozy.

Top class! We ordered antipasti and tiramisu. 5 people from different countries and cultures found the quality and taste of the food to be excellent. That's saying something. Everyone enjoyed it very much. Big compliment. We will come or order again...

Great food and nice ambience. Very friendly staff. There are lunch dishes that change almost every day, very varied and always really good. The prices are fair. Cheap for Esslingen standards. I come here very often and for me it is the best Italian in Esslingen.

Cute little restaurant with great food and nice service. I've been there a few times and have always been completely satisfied.

I ate there for the first time today. We had reserved online beforehand, which worked great with confirmation by email. For dinner I ordered pasta fresca con salsicce e funghi misti, which included a small salad. We didn't have to wait long for our food. The pasta was perfectly al dente and the sauce was very tasty. The menu has a varied selection of antipasti, various salads, pasta and pinsa. Highly Recommended! It's definitely not the last time I've been there!

My second visit - an absolute disaster. We waited 30 minutes before we were even allowed to order (upon request). The drinks arrived another 20 minutes later. No cooler for wine and different wine glasses for four people. It was 20 degrees that day and we only got a cooler when we asked. An Aperol was warm, and according to the company they don't put the sparkling wine in the fridge because they "work with it". The starter platter for 25 euros was a joke. Two hams, some mushrooms and (questionably) salmon? The main course, the noodles were full of pepper. The owner and waiter responded to my feedback: “That hurts me.” Unfortunately that was it. Not recommendable.

I was kindly offered some champagne today while I was waiting. I politely declined this. When it took longer it was said: “You are now getting some champagne” and the waiter went to get it. Again I said I didn't want one. All I got was “Why?” I meant because I'm pregnant. When my three friends ordered a wine, I also got a glass (unprompted) and when I declined again I was told that I could at least drink a little. Absolutely not wearable for me. Whether pregnant, a sober alcoholic or simply someone who doesn't want to drink alcohol. This has to be accepted... In addition, there was no soap or toilet paper the whole evening.

Deliciou food, good atmosphere and great service.

Small, authentic, Italian restaurant. We'd love to be here for lunch.

Although the restaurant was hardly busy, we had to wait a long time and when the service came to the table, he didn't give us the impression that he was interested in guests - but the service consistently carried that out. The appetizer platter for two people was - to put it charitably - ordinary but for the price we would have expected more inventiveness. In the end one of the not so great Italian restaurants and prices that are too high for the service offered.

Discovered by chance - we were thrilled! Very friendly and personal service, delicious fresh pasta with salmon or Bolognese. Tastefully furnished, with attention to detail.

Best Italian in Esslingen: authentic atmosphere, delicious food and matching wine!! 🍷 Always a highlight!! 🤩 We can particularly recommend the pinsa with salmon, but the noodles are also super tasty 😍

Get your opening hours under control. I'm standing in front of closed doors for the umpteenth time, even though it says it's open both in the store and online.

Very good food, friendly service and a very nice atmosphere! We have visited Lo spaghetto d'oro many times and are thrilled every time. You feel like you're on holiday in Italy, everything is very authentic and the ingredients are of the best quality. We can particularly recommend the pinsa with salmon. Thank you and see you soon! :)

This is a restaurant that must succeed because it deserves it! The young owners make you feel comfortable, the atmosphere is familiar and pleasant. The food is fabulous, the wine is good. It is an excellent Italian address for Esslingen.

Tastes great. Very good service!!!

Excellent place, very cozy atmosphere. Food is just top-notch. It's a little pricey but great food. You will never regret paying for it. Very kind staff.. had an amazing time.

My wife and I were here for the first time. She had vegetarian pinsa, I had pasta with salmon. The food was really tasty and the two waitresses were very friendly. It went pretty quickly even though there were a lot of guests and there was grappa at the end. The price is a little higher, but you also get fresh ingredients and nothing out of a can. If we are in Esslingen again, we will definitely come back

My wife and I dined here the first evening during our weekend visit to the Christmas markets. It started to rain so we wanted to dine inside somewhere. We ventured into this place without a reservation. We were happy to be seated right away. The staff was super friendly and the restaurant was bright and nicely decorated. We had already eaten in the Medieval market so we decided to split a dish of the spaghetti with some super large shrimp. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the shrimp were wonderful. The menu had an appetizer that I would have tried had I not already eaten something. We both had a glass of Chardonnay to enjoy with the meal. All in all, a great first meal in Esslingen.

I have to honestly say I have never had better Italian food and my partner and I try many different restaurants! The bistro is cozy and the atmosphere is familiar. I can simply recommend it.

Every bite is pure enjoyment, you eat extra slowly because you don't want the food to finish, it just tastes authentic. 😋❤️🍝

Bester Italiener!! Das Essen schmeckt hervorragend. Immer wieder gerne

Wer auf verbrannte Pinsa steht ist hier genau richtig. Der Rand war völlig verbrannt. Der Kellner zuerst uneinsichtig und wollte mir weiß machen, dass dies normal sei. Nach einer kurzen Diskussion hat er es letztendlich zugegeben und mir dann eine neue Pinsa gebracht. Service ist sehr schlecht, das Essen OK, wenn es nicht verbrannt ist. Wem Service und ein schönes Ambiente wichtig sind, sollte lieber einen anderen Italiener aufsuchen. Gibt zum Glück genug in Esslingen.

Meine Frau und ich aßen dort heute mit einem befreundeten Paar zu Abend. Als Vorspeise bestellte ich mir ganz klassisch Bruschetta. Diese war ansprechend zubereitet und angerichtet, geschmacklich jedoch nur durchschnittlich. Mein Frau hatte als Hauptgang die Pasta mit Bolognese-Sauce, die sowohl optisch, als auch geschmacklich auf ganzer Linie überzeugen konnte. 5 Sterne dafür. Ich hatte die Pasta mit Garnelen. Die Garnelen waren hervorragend zubereitet, auch die Pasta war schön auf den Punkt gegart. Leider war das Gericht für meinen Geschmack viel zu ölig. Es schwamm praktisch darin. Ansonsten geschmacklich gut. Ein Tipp wäre dabei auch ein Erfrischungstuch für die Hände, da die Garnelen erst noch geschält werden müssen. 3 Sterne für die Pasta mit Garnelen. In Summe 4 Sterne. Der Service war okay, aber jetzt auch nicht der Beste, den ich hatte.

Super Restaurant: Toller Service, leckeres Abendessen und ein wunderschönes Ambiente! Gerne wieder! 🇮🇹

Excelente cocina, además de un buen servicio. Con algún detalle, como el cambio de una copa adecuada para el vino. Las voces en cocina se comunicaban en italiano, y por qué no: unvalor añadido a productos de calidad. Carta no muy extensa, pero justo con aquello que vas a buscar cuando el nombre del local es una declaración de intenciones, a

Wir waren von Freunden in das kleine italienische Restaurant eingeladen worden. Zuerst gab es eine Vorspeisenplatte die keine Wünsche offen ließ. Es war einfach für jeden Geschmack etwas drauf. Danach hatten wir verschiedene Pinsas und einer von uns hatte die Spaghetti aus dem Parmesanlaib mit Trüffeln darüber. Alle Gerichte waren sehr lecker und dezent gewürzt. Dazu kommt das der Inhaber Riccardo super nett ist und wir rundherum sehr aufmerksam bedient wurden. Das war bestimmt nicht unser letzter Besuch bei ihm.

Das Trüffelpasta, das ich bei Ihnen genossen habe, war einfach köstlich. Vergleichbar Gutes habe ich bisher nur in Florenz erlebt. 👌

Wir waren nach dem Weihnachtsmarkt zum Essen in dieser sehr netten Location - absolut frische Ware, lockere Atmosphäre und super netter Service - wir kommen gerne wieder.

Sehr nettes Personal! Ich hatte Pasta mit Trüffel, die mega lecker war! Wir waren zu fünft im Restaurant und hatten verschiedene Gerichte. Alle unsere Speisen hatten uns sehr gut geschmeckt. Dieses Lokal kann ich nur empfehlen! Immer wieder sehr gerne.

Tolle italienische Küche! Essen war frisch zubereitet und ein Genuss. Wir wurden freundlich und zügig bedient und hatten hier einen tollen Abend! Tolles Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Italienisch Essen wie bei Mamma? Ja, vielleicht, die Mamma müsste dann aber schon sehr gut kochen können. Auf jeden Fall ein Ristorante ohne Übertreibungen, weder kulinarisch noch einrichtungsmäßig oder preislich. Und vielleicht gerade deshalb so zu empfehlen...

Das Essen war sehr gut, der Kellner ausgezeichnet. Grüße an Riccardo von den vier Frauen ussam Ländle.

One of the best pastas I have ever eaten. It has a reasonable price and is very original. Their behavior is also very friendly and decent. I recommend that you definitely try it.

Das Essen war sehr lecker, sehr freundliche Service, die tiramisu war selbst gemacht richtig lecker und beste was ich jemals hatte

Sehr leckeres Essen und wir kommen gerne wieder vorbei!!!

Wir waren nun schon einige Male hier und ich kann ohne zu übertreiben sagen, dass hier das leckerste italienische Essen Esslingens serviert wird. Originale Familienrezepte aus Italien und perfekt gekochte, frische Nudeln. Bisher war alles herausragend lecker und die Bolognese ist die beste, die ich je hatte. Wir kommen zum italienisch essen nur noch hierher. Bitte weiter so!

Zu viert einen schönen Platz bekommen. Vorspeise (Antipasti) und Hauptspeise (Ravioli an Salbei) sehr lecker. Getränkekarte völlig ausreichend. Kommen wieder.

Ein super tolles italienisches Restaurant. Es hat ein Bistro-Character, aber eine hervorragende schmackhafte Küche. Die Spagetti aus dem Parmesanlaib sind einfach jedesmal aufs neue einfach *spitze*. Wir empfanden das Essen und das Ambiente sowie die Besitzer so super, sodass wir vor paar Wochen entschieden hatten unsere Hochzeit dort mit ca 20 Personen zu feiern. Es hat alles problemlos geklappt. Wir hatten uns für ein kleines 3 Gänge Menü entschieden. Einer der Highlights waren die Vorspeisenvariationen, die wir selbst so nicht erwartet hatten. Einfach klasse. Alle Gäste einschließlich uns waren sehr zufrieden. Wir empfehlen das Lo Spaghetto d'oro für jeglichen Anlass mit gutem Gewissen weiter. Macht weiter so... Wir kommen noch öfters zu euch ;-)

Pinsa sehr lecker! Sehr freundliche Bedienungen und gemütliches Ambiente!

Zufällig entdeckt. Uns hat das Essen sehr gut geschmeckt und der Service war auch nicht zu beanstanden.

Autêntico restaurante italiano. Deliciosos pratos, muito bem servidos e com ingredientes de ótima qualidade. Um ótimo custo benefício.
