L'Osteria in Bonn

We were there for lunch with 10 people. We had limited time. The service was exceptionally friendly and quick, and everything went smoothly. We especially liked the fact that English was spoken fluently, and special requests (no tomatoes, etc.) were no problem.

We dined at the Losteria Bonn Rheinwerk on October 15, 2025. Adrian was our server that evening, and we were very impressed with his service. He was not only very attentive, but also very courteous and friendly. We didn't have to wait long for the food, and it was delicious. The restaurant has a very pleasant ambiance with a great view of the Rhine. We would love to come back!

Waited 40 minutes for 1 single pizza for take away. It was a Sunday and only 1/3 of the restaurant was occupied. Unbelievable.

Beautiful location directly on the Rhine.

Very tasty food and super good service.

Super delicious food Very friendly staff

Super delicious pizzas and a fantastic atmosphere right on the Rhine. ✨

There used to be cheese on pizza 🍕... now it's just a hint of it. More like a large cracker.

Good pasta selection and fast service!

I was there last Friday with my daughter. We were both absolutely thrilled! The service was simply fantastic! Our pizza arrived very quickly and was incredibly delicious! A wonderful evening in a fantastic atmosphere 👌👏 We'll be back!!!

Nice reception and given option for indoor or outdoor. The service was very slow and not attentive at all, we had to ask for everything! The individual food, starters and main, all came at different times and took a very long time, we might as well been eating on our own. The pizzas were cold when they came out and clearly had been sitting on the side in the kitchen. The pasta dishes were very average and nothing special at all. Overall a very disappointing evening!! And I think the kitchen was simply overwhelmed.

I'm now quite disappointed with the service at L'Osteria. I don't want to blame the employees, but rather the managers, as I feel their work is poorly organized. There was a long line in front of the restaurant. I had reserved a table and immediately joined the queue (which is what an employee had initially told me). Most of the people in front of me didn't have a reservation, so we were only assigned a table after asking again. Unfortunately, the ushers only appeared every five minutes, so everything dragged on. This could be better organized. The drinks arrived after about 15 minutes, and the pizzas only arrived after about an hour. This also leaves a lot to be desired.

Pizzas are good, location is great..... But a large queue outside with 15 empty tables on the terrace (and very few people inside) makes no sense. Much better to be sitting down, waiting with a drink (and advice that the kitchen will be slower), than standing around in a queue outside. Very understandable that kitchens are busy, not as clear the logic of not letting people sit down.

It was good. My Italian friend collapsed over the Hawaiian pizza on the menu. We had to call the ambulance.

The two of us went to L'Osteria at Bonner Bogen and sat outside – the terrace is truly beautiful and invites you to linger. I had a goat cheese salad with beetroot, walnuts, apple, and fresh lettuce, along with two slices of bread. Very tasty and a great combination! I had a rhubarb spritzer with it, and my friend had a currant spritzer. She also ordered a pizza that you could even split half and half – one side with prosciutto, the other with rustico. The pizza tasted great – but was significantly too large for the plate. Since it's also served uncut, it was almost a juggling act to divide the slices properly. This deducts a small point, even though the quality of the food didn't suffer as a result. We found everything absolutely reasonable in terms of price, and the service was super friendly and attentive. Overall, a very pleasant evening with delicious food. We'll definitely be back!

The food was delicious, pizza and pasta. The service was attentive and prompt. It was nice that it wasn't too busy.

Beautifully situated on the Rhine

The restaurant offers a very pleasant atmosphere with a modern yet cozy ambiance. The menu is varied and well-thought-out, offering both traditional and creative dishes. The service was attentive but unobtrusive, and wait times were pleasantly short. The freshness of the ingredients, which you could taste in every dish, is particularly noteworthy. The value for money here is absolutely spot on.

The food was great as always and the service was very friendly. :)

Very friendly and attentive service. Only 4 stars for the ambiance, because I prefer going to the LOsteria in Bornheim. 😜

Today I was there again at Portlandweg 4 in Bonn. The pizza was good as always, but unfortunately, the waitress let the grease that had collected on the pizza drip onto my pants. It was pretty annoying. She apologized, but it didn't really help me for the rest of the day in those pants...

Friendly service. Food arrived quickly and always tasted great.

Nice and attentive service, the food very tasty and fresh

Great service and a great atmosphere! Just what you'd expect from Losteria.

Super delicious food, the staff was really friendly and accommodating!

Great as always Very friendly staff A loyal regular

The food was very good and the service friendly 😊

Good ambience, great service, cool location

Top notch as always. Typical L'Osteria. Unfortunately, one of the taps is broken, and they don't have any wheat beer on tap. Two weeks later: There's no cold bottled beer, and the tap for the pilsner isn't cooling properly. Conclusion: No cold beer. I have zero sympathy for this, and this was the last time I'll be here for a while. I have no idea how all the other L'Osterias manage it, except this one.

I really enjoy eating at Losteria during my lunch break and always receive friendly service. Steffi is particularly attentive and asks at appropriate intervals if I need anything else.

The service was very friendly and courteous. Unfortunately, it was completely packed yesterday, and we waited a long time for our food. My pasta dish was very small and completely dry.

Unfortunately, half of the order was forgotten and the food was very late. But it tasted very good.

Attentive staff and fast service! :-)

Beautiful ambiance, great location, and courteous, relaxed service. You won't be left alone. Plus a great pizza that tastes really good. A large one at that. You can also share it – either one of two pizza creations from the menu – or one shared on two plates for two people. 🫶 Pasta dishes and salads are also great, with a nice selection. Prices are moderate and okay. 👍 Great concept. I'd be happy to go again. 👌👍

About two weeks ago, my wife and I dined here on a Saturday evening. Even though the place was practically bursting with customers inside and out, we received a very warm welcome and excellent service throughout the evening. I have to give a huge shout-out to the manager (I think Stefan), who seated every arriving guest graciously and even took the time to chat and laugh with them at the tables. Chapeau, that's service! :)

Super friendly service, super food

Superb service!!! Great food too

Very nice! I'd be happy to come back!

I ate at L'Osteria and sat on the terrace opposite the entrance. I ate my pizzas, which the friendly bartender had brought me on plates. I then wanted to order something to eat from the waitress and was told that they weren't serving guests in the back part of the terrace. We asked the friendly bartender if we could order from him, and he served us directly and brought us our drinks. I've never been served on the terrace at 5:30 p.m. on a Saturday.

The service during our visit was truly outstanding. The food and drinks were brought to the table very quickly, and it tasted delicious. My daughter even got something to paint on and later real pizza dough to knead. The staff were incredibly helpful and very child-friendly. Thank you so much.

Great place to eat great service especially the waiter named Mats and Nasre top manager polite and courteous

We've been visiting L'Osteria on and off for many years and have been very satisfied with the food, especially the oversized and delicious pizzas and the option to share them with different toppings and enjoy an appetizer and/or dessert. The value for money is absolutely excellent. We were greeted, served, and bid farewell by very friendly and attentive staff, and we spent a lovely evening together. We highly recommend L'Osteria.

Delicious. But the service was a bit overwhelmed.

Service was very slow, but I don't mind that; it was busy and everyone gets overwhelmed sometimes. What isn't okay, however, is that I ordered the only vegan pizza on the menu, and it was topped with cow's milk cheese. The result: stomach cramps. That shouldn't happen, especially not in chain restaurants, where the kitchen has strict instructions on how everything should be prepared anyway.

Super friendly staff!!! Definitely recommendable. The price/performance ratio matches the lovely ambiance. Tim is highly recommended as a server.

As always, a relaxed evening. The terrace is lovely, with a view of the Siebengebirge mountains. The young service is attentive and friendly. The food is good and plentiful. A pleasant evening, in short.

A very nice restaurant for outdoor dining and chilling. Delicious pizza and a cool drink. What more could you want? Friendly staff.

A shout-out to Lilly, the waitress, who kept an eye on everything in such warm weather. I sat with friends between two tables who were anything but patient and constantly complained. It was very warm and quite busy. I work in the restaurant industry myself and know how difficult it is to please everyone -> unfortunately, not possible. We waited a good 45 minutes for the food, but it was definitely worth it. I'll have to come back to Bonn more often ❤️

A very pleasant atmosphere where you can feel at home. The service is very friendly and attentive. We'd be happy to come back 🍀🍀

We reserved a table and were told to just pick a free, unreserved seat. We waited about 40 minutes to even get served. We waited another hour or so for the food to arrive because we were "unfortunately forgotten." In the end, we weren't even given a goodbye. (Probably because there was no tip.)

Great location on the Rhine, very good service, and good to excellent food and drinks. Parking is a bit expensive, but the underground garage is right in the building. A walk along the Rhine before or after dinner is a great option, with a beautiful view of the Siebengebirge mountains. Highly recommended.

Typical Italian restaurant right on the Rhine, unfortunately without direct view, huge but averagely good pizza, attentive staff, nice interior

Not even at McDonald's are you treated so brazenly and unfriendly. Simply unbelievable....

The usual quality at this osteria is actually okay. However, since the service staff here was extremely slow and the atmosphere is worse than other restaurants in the same chain, I can't give it more than 3 stars.

Pizza Togo with a view of the Rhine 👍

The food was rather mediocre. However, the service in the restaurant was abysmal – we were served by a total of five different waiters, and everything was completely chaotic. There were messy tables everywhere. Several times a waiter told us he'd be right there to take our order, but in the end, we ended up waiting a total of 1.5 to 2 hours!

I can only agree with the previous reviews regarding service and quality. The team is probably seriously understaffed and therefore stressed. Arguments are played out in front of the customers - in my opinion, that's definitely the main reason why it only gets one star - as a guest, you come to have a good time, and that's what you pay for. Long waits, completely bored service. No greeting when you arrive, no 'ciao' when you leave. The friendliness and attentiveness that you're used to from other branches is not there. The restrooms smell of sewage, and the floor was covered in toilet paper (which is obviously the customers' fault, not the staff's, but still not inviting). Some of our pasta was cold, the portion was very manageable, the pizza was typically large, but not as tasty as in other restaurants. The drinks were good. The meat was tough. It's a shame, because the location is fantastic and the seating is nice, especially in the back or outside.

Thank you for the wonderful time with delicious food and charming service in a wonderful location. The price/performance ratio is definitely right. Sincerely, Britt & Alex

I honestly don't know why we keep putting ourselves through this: It's happened so often now that the (mostly semi-trained) service staff/waiters "don't get anything done" or refuse to do their job. After ordering our drinks, we were kept waiting over 20 minutes for our food order, which we then declined because we preferred another pizzeria and were tired of it. This was preceded by the request to "please clean the table." We suspect that they intentionally made us wait for this reason. They don't need employees like them. In any case, their kind should go there. We are turning our backs on this place for good.

A very nice location with a great view. Unfortunately, it's the only thing that could be praised here. The service is rather lackluster, untrained and possibly totally overwhelmed. We sat outside and there were only two waiters for the entire outdoor area. It's almost understandable that you completely lose track of things here. Drinks are brought to your table without enthusiasm, as if you were in a drive-through. We also ordered food. Pizza of the usual size. The salad we ordered with shrimp was barely edible. The shrimp were dry and the salad tasted as if it had been prepared for someone else who didn't want it. The leaves were almost drowned in the sauce. Unfortunately, under these circumstances I would not visit the restaurant again.

We stopped by the restaurant spontaneously, knowing what we were getting. It was very busy, the pizzas were quick and delicious, and the service was also very good. It was perfect for a spontaneous evening, and the location was nice.

Great atmosphere and really great service :) really recommended!

Delicious food and very good service!

Tasted great and service was also top👍

The pizza tasted bad. The pizza dough was tough and couldn't be cut with a knife, only shredded. The toppings were indefinable. The chicken breast strips listed as a topping on the menu were few and far between.

The place to be ;) Very tasty food. The waiters are super friendly, and the ambiance is lovely, too. Especially with the Rhine right outside.

Super nice lunch and great service

Cozy on the Rhine and a world apart from Losteria in Troisdorf-Spich. You can have a pleasant conversation here, and the atmosphere is great. Parking is easy, for example, on the nearby street. In Spich, you wait to place an order, the food takes a long time, and you wait again to pay. So, if you have a choice, choose Losteria Rheinwerk when it's sunny outside and not just inside!

Our waitress Beccy was very friendly and accommodating

Highly recommended. The prices are reasonable, definitely not a bargain. The pizzas are huge. The location is beautiful, right on the Rhine. It can take a while to get served if it's busy.

L' Osteria am Rhein is beautifully located and actually a nice place, but it always seems very hectic, bustling, and loud. The service is mediocre. The drinks weren't left for the person who ordered them, but rather on the table. Nothing was poured from the bottles into the glasses, which is normal in most restaurants. We generally didn't have to wait long for our food. The pizza was ordered with extra corn as an added ingredient. There were only a few kernels of corn on the pizza, which I think is pretty cheeky to charge for. The bruschetta bread was charred black all over the edges. The tomato soup wasn't good. A well-made tomato soup is divine, but this one was far from that. When we finished eating, the dirty dishes sat on the table for ages, and our glasses were empty. Although the waitress ran past us several times, they didn't notice. After we asked to pay, we had to wait another long time for the bill. When we finished paying, there was no thank you, no "good evening," no friendly farewell. You really can't ask for a tip... The staff often seem sluggish and more concerned with themselves and each other than with the guests. They really should be more on their toes. Conclusion: You can do it, but you don't have to repeat it.

I recommend it to anyone who likes Italian food. But also coffee or salad.

I've rarely experienced such poor service. As always...it's not busy, so the waiters don't have to be attentive. Great location, everything else was below average.

Right on the Rhine. Great food.

Super friendly staff and good service. The food was delicious, but unfortunately, some ingredients were unavailable. The ambiance takes a bit of getting used to, and the noise level is quite loud. It was difficult to hold a conversation across the table from our seat. But otherwise, great!

*Additional*❗️ Thank you for your response! I think it's great! 👍 Especially since I've always had really good experiences with l'Osteria...I think this was a negative exception! So, I'm retracting my review... Please do better next time...

Very family-friendly, with plenty of space. It was raining, and the waiters were very understanding. The food was excellent, as always at L'Osteria.

The food is great; the pizza is large, but not pre-sliced. However, the waitress, Becky, was very nice and accommodating.

Phone service is a little difficult to reach, but otherwise great.

Good calzone, friendly service.

Attractive ambiance, very friendly staff, and the food is top-notch 🤌🏼 The store manager is professional, friendly, and, above all, handsome!

Great service, great food, great dessert😜

We were greeted warmly by the waiter and asked, since we had made a reservation, whether we preferred to sit inside or outside. The young lady serving us was extremely friendly. The food was delicious.

250713 We stopped in when the weather was nice, so we could sit on the large outdoor terrace. The restaurant is located right next to the Rhine and is surrounded by lots of greenery. A friendly welcome at the entrance and escort to our seats. The service was very friendly and attentive. We ordered pasta and pizza. The pizza was very large and looked bigger than the plate. The pasta, on the other hand, seemed a bit small, but the portion was sufficient. It came with salad. Everything was very tasty and well presented. The restaurant area is very large, with appropriate divisions for large parties or semi-circular seating areas for smaller groups. Overall, everything feels very cozy and inviting. The restrooms were very clean, and there was a crash course in Italian over the loudspeaker (nice idea). We felt very comfortable there.

Small portion of pasta dishes. Unfortunately, a bit dry. Drinks (iced tea) were delicious. Service was excellent. From the greeting at the entrance to the payment, the food was always friendly and attentive. A very nice location. We sat outside, but the interior is also spacious and nicely decorated. We'll be back and stick with the pizza 🍕, which always tastes very good.

There's simply the best pizza here! I've eaten pizza all over the world, but l'Osteria Pizza was always better! Can't beat the taste! 👌🏻🍕😋

Very nice atmosphere. The food came quickly and the waitress was very friendly. I'd be happy to go again :-)

Nice and fast service Delicious food and a very nice atmosphere Top!

In my opinion, this is still one of the most beautiful locations for a L'Osteria restaurant. The food and service were once again very good during our visit. The only criticism was that the pizzas were a bit sparsely topped. Nevertheless, we'd be happy to come back again.

The atmosphere was great. Unfortunately, our waitress was completely unfriendly. When we politely complained about a beer that came instead of a shandy, she replied with an annoyed look: "Is it too bitter for you then..."

Becci was really great! I'd love to come back!

It was easy to have a good conversation despite the music. The waitress, Becci, was very nice.

A very nice restaurant with direct view of the Rhine

Beautiful atmosphere directly on the Rhine

We visited L'Osteria on a busy Saturday evening and were pleasantly surprised all around! The service was excellent: friendly, attentive, and quick. Our food was on the table in just about 30 minutes – truly remarkable during peak times. The location is very tastefully decorated, and everything appears neat and tidy – including the restrooms, which is an important detail for us. We particularly liked the fact that they checked in from time to time to see if everything was okay – you really feel valued as a guest here. One thing that also caught our attention: We absolutely don't understand some of the negative reviews. Our experience was consistently positive. Perhaps it sometimes has something to do with how you treat the staff yourself – respectful behavior often makes all the difference. We also liked the boxes for returning empty pizza boxes for those who want to enjoy their pizza on the banks of the Rhine. One thing is certain: We'll be happy to come back. Thanks to the entire L'Osteria team for a truly wonderful evening!

Beautiful place, great location on the Rhine, organizationally expandable and not customer-oriented.

Disappointing visit to L'Osteria Bonn Rheinwerk. We were there with four people – unfortunately, a thoroughly disappointing experience. Drinks were taken and served promptly. The food took an extremely long time to arrive: - Two children's pizzas and a carpaccio only arrived after over an hour. - The ordered salad didn't arrive even after 1.5 hours and repeated requests. - The service was completely overwhelmed, uncoordinated, and inattentive. The situation was not handled professionally. This is not what you expect, either as a family or as paying guests. Very disappointing and not recommended.

The salad arrived incorrectly, and a new one was immediately brought, along with an Aperol nectar on the house. The problem was handled very professionally. We'll always be happy to return to L Osteria.

You can enjoy delicious food there at a reasonable price. A cozy atmosphere, whether you sit on the terrace or inside.

Our class celebrated its farewell dinner here yesterday. The waitress who served us on the terrace was charming, and we felt very comfortable. However, it was a bit slow at first. Even though almost all the tables on the terrace were empty, they tried to move us inside. They told us that guests might want to sit outside later. My objection that 35 guests (us) wanted to sit outside now didn't count. It's a shame we had to discuss it for so long. 🤷🏼‍♂️
