L'Osteria Essen in Essen

Very nice staff. Top food. We liked it very much.

Everything was great and very tasty!

Food, service and ambience was great. Our waitress Linda was very personable and accommodating, would happily come back again.

Great atmosphere, very friendly service. Her name is Linda and she was very attentive. Very nice evening, we would like to go there more often.

Food tasty, but only lukewarm. The service staff has become somewhat scarce. Nice atmosphere.

The waitress Chantal was (is) really nice, only topped by the size of the pizzas. Really delicious, anytime again…

It was a very nice evening! In addition, despite the store being full, we were served very well and quickly. Great praise goes to Chantal, who really gave us a very polite and lovely evening. And nothing was missing and we didn't have to look for service or ask questions countless times.

The food, service and ambience are great here! Antwan in particular was super friendly and accommodating! We like coming here. Even without a reservation, you can usually get a seat. The staff are very friendly!

A little too loud but all in all good

Ser good pizzeria! The Antwan served us very well!

Antwan was very nice, even brought food to the table! Otherwise you have to pick up your food from the kitchen yourself.

The pizza is excellent and the atmosphere is very nice

We recently had an Antipasti della Casa delivered to our home. We often order this dish and unfortunately discovered yesterday that the ham and eggplant slices were completely spoiled and therefore inedible. It's a shame, we enjoyed ordering there...

Food was great, we didn't have to wait long Service Chantal was also super nice 👍🏼

The Pizza Bo was great 🍕🍕 The service was also very friendly and accommodating!! @chantal

A little trip to Italy every time 😁🙏🏻 Very great waitress - Linda 😁

Thank you for the lovely evening ☺️ We came to Essen from Munich for a congress and felt very comfortable here. The food was very good and the service was also very accommodating.

Everything is great. Highly recommended.

As always, very tasty and super nice service.

Top service, atmosphere for L'Osteria was very nice and cozy, food was great, special requests were catered for

Very nice service, fast and tasty food. The ambience is also very nice, especially since you can look into the kitchen and see how the pizzas are being prepared. It's usually not crowded, so you can have a good time👌

Delicious food, great atmosphere, would love to come back! :) Dear Chantal took good care of us, very attentive and super friendly!

The atmosphere was very cozy. The food and service were great! Chantal served us very nicely.😊

Super tasty pizza and the service was very good!

Alles prima. Kellnerin Chantal war sehr nett und aufmerksam. Essen war sehr lecker. Kommen auf jeden Fall wieder, sehr zu empfehlen.

Super nice service, Chantal 👍👍👍 Thanks. Pizza was very good. 👍

Despite the full restaurant, Antwan was very friendly and always had a smile. Food was very tasty.

Fast service even without a reservation on a busy Saturday. The food was super tasty, large portions. Antwan took great care of us and was super friendly and accommodating the whole evening :-)

the service was great (especially chantal)

A dream Everything is just right here, it couldn't be better, you feel as comfortable as anywhere else in Italy Chantal looked after us more than perfectly. As expected, the food was more than great Once again we had a great Italian evening in the middle of Essen, thanks to Chantal Thanks

Very, very friendly, courteous staff and a wonderful atmosphere. We really enjoyed our stay in Essen and dinner with you rounded off the day. Our waitress Chantal also helped us come back here and let us be completely pampered.

Excellent food, great ambience and great service! A big thank you to Chantal

Great service, child-friendly and delicious food! Chantal was our server and very accommodating. The ambience, atmosphere and music were great, we will definitely be back 😊

The food was fabulous and very tasty The staff was very friendly and nice I recommend everyone to come here And there was a huge selection of food

Food great, staff great, everything great

Very good and prepared food, big compliments to the kitchen. They know how to create great dishes. In addition, the service is extremely nice and friendly. I would love to come back here again and again.

Very good pizza that is quite tasty and large, the place is pretty and modernly furnished, the staff is friendly and helpful, I have eaten there 3 times and I recommend it again and again.

Delicious food as always… If you don't know where, L'osteria always goes!!

On the 1st delivery, the Uber eats driver couldn't find our house number and the food arrived cold. On the second one, half the order was missing and the other half was only lukewarm. Sorry, but that's really not possible for the prices.

The l'Osteria in Essen is great, like all the ones we have visited so far. The service staff is competent, quick and always friendly. The food came quickly and was, as expected, delicious. Price-performance ratio is excellent. Only the acoustics are once again bad, i.e. it is very loud and conversation is hardly possible.

The food was super quick and tasted great. I would love to come back! The service was very attentive and friendly.

Great Pizza, portions were huge.

The food was fantastic. We booked every night for 7 days in a row. No regrets.

The food was good, the service too. What was a bit strange for us was that we were politely escorted out after two hours, despite free tables that had been reserved for hours. Reserving tables is great, no problem, but if the reservation is timed completely wrong by the staff and these tables then remain unused for hours, something is wrong.

Ate here for the first time. We ordered pizza. The pizzas are huge and well topped. Fast service! We will definitely come back when we are in Essen again.

Despite having a reservation, we waited 30 minutes for a table. There was no explanation/apology. The food was okay, but there are apparently no spices in the kitchen.

Lovely place, tasty food and very nice service. We come to Essen for the Spiel fair and this is the place when you're hungry and need a nice rest.

Food top, service person Mobina (?) Ultra nice and on point Music in the store a bit too loud.

Very tasty food. Unfortunately the volume was a bit loud. But Morbina made up for that with her competence and friendliness. A loving woman

Great evening, everything was perfect, many thanks to Mabina

Big praise for the friendly service. The pizza was huge and super tasty, as was the spaghetti ice cream. Highly recommended.

Service was nice but not really attentive. Food is the classic L'Osteria standard, nothing special.

The pizzas are very tasty, but always come into contact with the waiter's hands or arms. This is not hygienic 🤢 How about appropriately sized plates?

We celebrated my daughter’s 13th birthday with her friends at L’Osteria Rüttenscheid. Thank you very much for the good food and the great service.

Very good! Mobina, one of the waitresses, is very nice and very good at her job!

Pizza was very tasty, staff seemed very uninterested

Delicious, reasonably priced and always open.

Super tasty pasta, delicious pizza, nice atmosphere and very nice service. Our food arrived quickly.

Too few staff at 1 p.m. We didn't have a lot of time and waited 40 minutes to place our food order. The colleagues here really step on the gas and are quick, but two employees at this time is not enough! Are there any cuts in personnel here? It was great weather and therefore maybe busier, but that was clear for a week. Poor planning from management.

I totally recommend it , especially the back yard, a very nice atmosphere. Best pizza in Town 💖

Beautiful terrace in the middle of the park. We felt comfortable, the waiters were very accommodating and the food was delicious. You can share a huge pizza with two toppings between two people and be full.

Nice garden restaurant, especially when grandpa is out and about with his grandson! Playground and lots of greenery around. 👍

Fantastic food and great atmosphere! The L’Osteria in Essen-Rüttenscheid is simply great! The pizzas are huge and taste great – crispy base, fresh ingredients, simply a dream. The atmosphere is super cozy, perfect for a relaxed evening with friends or family. The service was also absolutely great: friendly, attentive and everything went quickly despite the hut being full. If you love big, delicious pizzas, you should definitely stop by. I'll definitely be back! Absolute recommendation.

We were on vacation in North Rhine-Westphalia. And had dinner here. What should we say? 5☆ for ambience 5☆ for the service (here's a thank you to our service person Mobina) 5☆ for the food. The pizza was as you would imagine a pizza to be. Price->performance absolutely justified. You get a pizza that is at least 45 cm tall. There is a sandpit with toys in the yard for children. Which is great. And you can also order a children's portion. We'll be back.

3x 5 stars for this restaurant. The service was extremely friendly and quick. The food was perfect and we were in the middle of the most popular district of Essen, a beer garden with a Mediterranean atmosphere. We would like to thank you very much 🥰. The restaurant used to be equipped with washing machines, but today it invites you to dream. We will come back.

Food is great, but service is just bad. We waited over 30 minutes for our drinks (despite the almost empty restaurant) and it also took almost 30 minutes before we could finally pay. In order to take the leftover pizza with us, we were at least allowed to fold the pizza box ourselves...

Visited an Osteria again after a long time. We were satisfied 😊

Very nice beer garden, the waiting time for drinks was very okay even though it was full. Food was good, all in all a nice evening. Thanks to the L'Osteria team. We'd love to come back. Highly recommended.

Great ambience..And the beer garden is great..It gives you that holiday feeling..And the pizzas are legendary...huge size for big appetites...price performance and service top..If you can't manage the pizza...you'll get it packed up ..I was very satisfied and felt comfortable there..

A really nice place to stay, especially if you have children. Because the outdoor sandpit brings parents a touch of relaxation. However, you can expect system catering here, which isn't a bad thing. However, you should be aware of this. In terms of price in the upper segment, quality in the middle range. Every Italian would never make a carbonara with cream. The bruscetta was extremely hard and tasteless. The Pizza Formaggie was tasty, but very thin. The waiters tried to serve every guest quickly, which is why the atmosphere was quite hectic. You can certainly eat there for a quick dinner or spend a nice evening with friends. However, if you are looking for traditional Italian cuisine and a certain style, you have come to the wrong place.

We were at L'Osteria on a wonderfully warm day. The outside area is nice but no reservations are accepted for outside. We were there with a larger group and had to sit in the restaurant and that's how the "disaster" began. All the service staff were so busy outside that we were put to the test with our orders with a long waiting time. After eating we didn't have the opportunity to order any more drinks. We sat near the counter and repeatedly called attention to ourselves without success. The managing director didn't accept any drink requests, but he did buy us a Limochello to settle the matter. Long story...we paid and moved on for more drinks, that's quite possible in Rüttenscheid, Conclusion: There are good, huge pizzas, the risotto was great, but the service unfortunately detracts from a positive impression.

We didn't even wait 10 minutes before our food was already served. Very friendly and courteous staff (Ismael). I'm already looking forward to the next visit ❤️

Great place with a wonderful location in the Rüttenscheid Street, delicious desserts, beautiful music, gentle waiters and clear bathrooms! We were there at 3 pm, so there were not many people, but pretty many reservation carda on the tables, so if you're planning to come in the evening, I believe a reservation would be a smart decision. We ordered cappuccino, latte macchiato, chocolate suffle and a mascarpone creme with strawberries - everything was incredibly tasty! ☕ An immediate recommendation! I have in plans come back and try a pizza there or anything of the kind 🍽️

Nice restaurant. Unfortunately the pizzas were not well topped but otherwise ok.

I find the decor and the waiters very nice and personable. The food was excellent, there was no need to add any salt because they knew exactly how to season it perfectly. Simply great!!!

Food OK. Staff partly good, partly in need of improvement. Unfortunately, expectations and reality now diverge greatly. It was considerably better. 🤔

Very nice atmosphere And I can only recommend the waitress Mobina, so attentive and friendly Come Gladly again

As in every L'Osteria, Good food good service

Mobina was just personable and made us feel very comfortable. She was very attentive, quick and had a lovely manner. We would love to come back. ❣️

Nice evening in the Losteria beer garden with good food and delicious drinks with super nice service from Mobina!

Yesterday, July 19, 2024, I was there with my Mammutmarsch friends and it was a dream how the staff looked after us. As always, the food was great and arrived quickly at the table, as were the drinks. There was no problem with a dog in the restaurant. Any time again especially at this la Osteria and I have already been to a few. Greetings to all waitresses (Unfortunately I don't know the name but I have kept my promise)

Food was amazing and our server Susi was super helpful and was checking in with us regularly. A great place to visit if you’re in the city 😊

Our waitress Susy was really good with the service and the pizzas were amazing; they are enormous and really tasty 😋. If you want to have a nice price/quality pizza, this is the place to eat.

Nice restaurant for Rüttenscheid, the food scene shows itself here. Delicious 😋 but be careful with small portions.

You know the RÜ, but you don't know what's behind the restaurants (we definitely don't). There were 3 tables and chairs at the front, the waiter pointed out to us that there were still seats available in the courtyard at the back. We didn't know it would go any further. We followed the waiter through the huge, great restaurant, stood on a metal staircase and then wow... a really great beer garden with super nice staff. Even though it was full, it was really quiet. Almost a little holiday feeling. The food, pizza was amazing. Olive trees and lemon trees so warmly

Mobina is the best! Delicious food and really nice service!

I had the pleasure of being served by Mobina and she was simply amazing! Your friendly manner and quick service made my visit a wonderful experience. She really went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed and left a lasting impression with her attentive and professional manner. Thank you very much, Mobina, you provide great service – I'll be happy to come back!

Mobina is the best!!!! World class service

We don’t need to talk about the taste, I love L’Osteria. However, the staff at the Rüttenscheid branch cannot be surpassed in terms of unfriendliness. When you come in you are asked in annoyance whether you have already decided, last time my wife was asked why she was standing there in the entrance area and you were told “Just pizza” and not in a good tone. In any case, it was the last time. From now on to the city center.

A very nice and relaxed opportunity to enjoy good food and drinks in a green garden outside. Recommended!

The evening in the garden at L’Osteria was beautiful. The ambience is great and you hardly notice anything of the big city of Essen. We were served very nicely by Viviane. A noticeably friendly employee who obviously enjoys her job and her manner made our stay even better. Thank you 😊

Here's a little update. A great restaurant with fantastic pizzas. The atmosphere is amazing. Today I revised my previous rating upwards. A few years ago: Great experience, delicious food The pizzas are huge and very tasty. But they were so big that you quickly got cold. Sometimes something less is more. Still recommended. The service was ok.

Absolutely not recommended, we wanted to eat something there shortly after eight and sit outside on one of the few sunny days. Unfortunately it was explained to us that the terrace can only be used for a drink. It's a real shame, since there are hardly any nice days when you can sit outside, you would be even more looking forward to an outdoor dinner. Disappointing, but there are other good and friendly restaurants, such as Café Olive, which gave us friendly hospitality.

Great food and great service. I can warmly recommend it! Antwan in particular was super friendly!

Spontaneously reserved a table for 4 online and had a delicious meal. Great pizzas and friendly service. Prices and ambience were okay.

Ismail hat uns super bedient und war sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich! Das Essen war sehr gut. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Service super nice! Pasta world class 👆🏼👌🏼♥️

Super tasty food and a very attentive waiter and also quite personable. All around successful evening. Gladly again.

Very large, delicious pizza. You can also sit outside in the beer garden and the pizzas came quickly. Monika served us really well. Gladly again!

A really great evening in the garden. The food was very tasty, the service from our waitress Mobina was extremely attentive and friendly. We would love to come back and can only recommend this branch. TOP!
