PiGa - Pizzeria Gallo in Köln

Very nice atmosphere with a great feel-good factor. The pizza is by far the tastiest in all of Cologne. Really recommended pizzeria.

Great food. Pizza with salsiccia is highly recommended .. and very friendly and polite staff (+ owner!). A must!

Super tasty pizza and pleasant atmosphere! La pizza is davvero buona!

In the middle of the vibrant life of Sülz you will find a small restaurant that feels like a secret treasure with its sweet and warm interior. The tables are placed close together – in the style of a Parisian café – which creates a convivial atmosphere for many guests. Some may find it cramped, but we are among the lucky ones who appreciate this intimate comfort. Here you can come together, laugh and enjoy life. The outdoor area reveals its true splendor, especially in summer. It invites you to enjoy the evening with a glass of wine in your hand and exchange stories while the sun slowly sets. It is this special magic of the place that immediately captivates you. The staff? Friendly, warm and always trying hard! That's how it should be in a restaurant with such a charming atmosphere. You immediately feel welcome and in good hands. But let’s get to the heart of it – the food. Here you are in a solid midfield: neither a culinary fireworks display nor total disappointment. The pizzas are quite tasty; They bring a touch of Italy to the plate - even if the topping here is rather sad and modest: just four prawns on a pizza is almost a provocation for the hungry stomach! A small hint that the calculations may have been a bit stingy here. The other pizzas also had really sad toppings. PS: You can see and taste cans of Champions!!!! Despite all the criticisms, I can still recommend the pizzas; they are the highlight of the menu! However, I have to note: the authenticity often tastes more like German-Italian fusion than real Italian flair. But that shouldn't bother us - after all, it's all about enjoyment and conviviality! Overall, one thing remains clear: This restaurant is a good choice for Sülz if you want to eat something delicious in a relaxed manner. In terms of price, it is more in the upper segment; but unfortunately this does not reflect either the quality or the quantity of the food. In conclusion: This restaurant has its own charm and offers a pleasant opportunity for social evenings - even if some aspects could still be improved. A place to linger and enjoy – whether with a glass of wine or a pizza in the open air!

Order a 🍕 pizza online and pick it up yourself for 16 euros 💶 Pizza almost has more crust than anything else and salmi pieces were mini Pizza is delicious 😋 👍 But in my opinion it's way too expensive for the size and weight

The restaurant impressed us and is particularly recommended in summer thanks to the outdoor area.

Very tasty pizza & nice service!

Pizza delivered via delivery, pizzas arrived completely destroyed due to incorrect transport. Called immediately, was blamed on driver and that was it. The pizzeria received money from us and not the driver. They're doing so well that they don't care about a complaint.

My daughter went to this great location yesterday! It was a really nice evening with great food in a lovely atmosphere. The staff was outstanding! Super friendly and attentive! If I were from Cologne, I would have a new favorite restaurant from now on 😃

This pizzeria is simply great! No matter whether you eat on site or take something to go: the quality always remains at the highest level. But what really makes this pizzeria special is the boss and his team. So warm and authentic – you immediately feel welcome. If you're looking for good food and a warm atmosphere, you should definitely stop by. It's always worth a visit and we'll definitely come back!

The pizza mortadella is uniquely good. Please do not remove it from the card.

A jewel in Sülz, good pizza, good pasta, value for money simply excellent. We always ordered and were there once yesterday. We will celebrate every future event there. Thanks!

Super delicious pizza and pasta.

Very tasty pizza and pasta combined with great service and a great atmosphere. Gladly again

We had a great evening with delicious food. An Italian that is worth it! Lexi was a great server and we will continue to enjoy going here.

The most delicious pizza and pasta in a beautiful atmosphere and top service!

Mega delicious pizza and great service! The young man with dark curls (I mean his name was Fabian) met all my needs 👍

The food and the waiters were very attractive. Here you get your money's worth.

Without question the best pizza in Cologne. Plus super nice service and a cozy atmosphere! Really absolutely nothing to complain about - a great recommendation for anyone with a heart for Italian cuisine!

Super delicious pizza, great service, simply recommended ❤️

We go to Piga a lot and it's always a great experience! 😍 The food is great, the service is a dream and the terrace is simply great!

Aside from the fact that the pizza here is first rate, the service is truly exceptional. Super friendly and very attentive staff

Very nice small restaurant, lasagna was good, pizza was excellent

I don't even want to describe it... Since the Gallo family and their concept are great, I'm taking the risk for Antonio's love of pushing the overall rating towards 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ with another great review. And therefore no longer getting a table in the future... I was a guest at PiGa several times. It's very simple: Food ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ambience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ________________________ Favorite Italian Antonio, I'm happy about your great shop and you and your team and about the best pizza in Veedel! It's nice that you exist 🧡 Update September 2024 New map. It only keeps getting better. Antonio, I love your PiGa!! It's just super beautiful and super delicious with you. Always happy again!

The food was very tasty, both the starters and the pizzas - on point. The service is perfect, the inner courtyard is a great place to spend a warm summer evening. Reservations are important as the store is quite popular!

My absolute favorite place in Cologne everything is perfect from start to finish! There is the most delicious pizza, a cozy atmosphere and the boss and all the staff are super welcoming, I will always come back 🫶🏼

20€ for pasta and no free tap water with wine, not even when asked?! 2024?

Nice, modern, hip. The starters (antipasti and focaccia) were good. The main courses, however, were far too greasy (pasta) or overloaded with cheese (pizza).

In the photo "mixed appetizers" and the "colored" pizza. The starter was truly exceptional as far as I'm concerned. Not much bread, unfortunately - dish to be divided between two people like we did, otherwise a bit too much. The pizza arrived to me first raw (it can happen, God forbid) and then with the edges all burnt. I would have appreciated something in between... Very kind staff, still fair prices for a restaurant in the area. Really beautiful atmosphere! From the paintings, to the music, to the wine (the presentation of the wines on the menu is very interesting!) I will definitely return to try the pasta with fennel and the pizza with pears. It intrigued me a lot! Small note: the pizzas that had mozzarella overflowed, it was really too much. It doesn't concern me personally as I have only consumed vegan, but perhaps it should be reviewed? Thank you so much for the evening 🙏🏻

The positive first: the staff. They're really extremely attentive and friendly about the food, but I'm not entirely convinced by the food. First of all, pizza: every pizza there is topped with a specific mozzarella, which is made from fior di latte. I'm missing a bit of variance here. There should be pizza variations with different types of cheese, such as Parmesan, Gruyere or Gouda. Because I think this mozzarella doesn't go well with every pizza. The dough is said to be particularly gentle because it has a long rising time. Me and my girlfriend have always had stomach ache from the yeast. Additionally, the pizza is just not crispy in the middle, it hangs down and that's what I think it should be different. We have already tried all three salads. None of these salads blew us away, on the contrary: two out of three are such that we wouldn't order them again. Too much dressing that doesn't really taste good. Overall, the salads are not really tasty. Have been there three times now and probably won't go there again in the future. And about your feedback, dear Piga: If Gennaro Contaldo puts different types of cheese on his pizza, then it's probably not a faux pas as you portray it.

Super delicious pizza! The service was excellent and very accommodating!

The best pizza in Cologne is worth every cent of its high price. Very well-selected, high-quality ingredients come together in a dough that is light and does not puff up. For the first time in 20 years I finished a pizza alone. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to PiGa.

Great ambience, especially the inner courtyard is spacious and takes you straight to Italy. The pizza is super tasty. Great service, friendly, quick to respond and always approachable We'd love to come back!

I've been to Piga twice now and I'm absolutely thrilled. Everything is just right here: you are given a very warm welcome, so that you immediately feel at home. You don't have to wait long for the drinks and the food, which tastes great. We will definitely come back more often

Hello, Last night I celebrated my birthday with you. When we made the reservation in advance, everything was simple and uncomplicated. However, the service was very poor throughout the evening. We had to go to the counter and order drinks several times. Nobody came to our table once throughout the evening without being asked to ask for drinks or requests. The table with empty plates was not cleared until we left the restaurant. The service staff was friendly, but completely helpless. Only the guests outside were served and we were left out. In addition, the drinks, aperol Spritz and Sarti Spritz, were not sufficiently cooled. It's a shame, I really remember the restaurant and especially the service.

Best pizza north of the Brenner Pass. Here you realize that cooking is an art and baking a perfect pizza is part of it. Not everyone can do it, but these guys have it. The best ingredients composed with love and passion to create a perfect dish.

Catastrophe. Very important: order via Wolt. I loved that you could order Italian-style spaghetti carbonara with egg. We decided on this and a salami pizza. The order was probably ready for much longer than it was finally picked up. When we arrived, all the toppings were stuck to the lid and the pizza was really ice cold. A plus point, hence two stars: scraped down, it tasted quite good. But the carbonara was a single hardened and unfortunately tasteless block from which I was able to cut slices. Really not good, tasty or appealing. The temperature problem and the sticky surface are probably more to blame on Wolt and the driver, but the carbonara itself was really not recommended. Wolt was also contacted directly.

The food itself tasted delicious, but the portions were minimal. A bit sad for this price. Furthermore, the service was not particularly attentive.

The food is excellent and tastes like in Italy. The boss is Italian himself and welcomes his guests personally with his warm manner. The atmosphere of the restaurant and the outdoor terrace is cozy and you can feel very comfortable here. For me, definitely one of the best Italian restaurants in Cologne!

After several changes over the last few years, I'm really happy that something as great as PiGa has finally opened there. Great atmosphere, familiar, wonderful food (the pizza is remarkably good!), ultra-friendly team. I will be a regular... Five stars

I thought the pizza was really tasty and the waitress was very friendly and good! Enjoyed it very much. I felt very comfortable and would like to come back

The pizza was very tasty. The service from Lotti was very professional and reliable. Always my pleasure!

Absolute recommendation! Very tasty Neapolitan pizza with fresh ingredients. As a drink I can recommend the raspberry-lime spritz. You can sit both inside and outside in a cozy atmosphere. The service was super friendly and very accommodating 😊

A place with an interesting menu (you really wanna try it all), delicious meals & drinks and pleasant waitresses and waiters. Thanks and definitely see you soon! :)

Very tasty pizza, excellent wine, super friendly team!

Super delicious food and very nice service!! We'll be happy to come back, thank you very much

Mega pizza and absolutely great service. I wanted to have a quick pizza during my lunch break in the field and found a treasure for my lunch break :-). Good food, quick and great service!

The two guys at the pizza oven are already outstanding, but when it comes to antipasti and pasta they surpass many of the offerings from Bella Italia in Cologne. Antonio Gallo and his small team at PiGa in Sülz shine with a great concept, charm and lots of atmosphere - even in the open air.

Very nice atmosphere in the inner courtyard. Great food 😍. We will be back

Italy in Cologne Sülz. Wonderful family atmosphere with a typical Neapolitan pizza 🍕, delicious Italian wines in a great ambience. Splendid!

Food was tasty but prices were higher. As a starter we had a buratta with a bit of rocket, 2 small tomatoes, 4 pieces. Baguette and that for 13.90 I think is very borderline but next time please add a little more oil and balsamic vinegar. Pasta truffle and beef fillet supposedly taste really good but a few more pasta would be great.

Treasure of gold in Sülz! PiGa has become by far my girlfriend and I's favorite restaurant. Antonio and his team are extremely warm and friendly, which is reflected perfectly in the ambience of the restaurant. The terrace in the inner courtyard in particular is the perfect mix between lively and cozy in summer and you can spend wonderful evenings there. The waiters are always courteous and requests are reliably addressed. The exuberant mood of the team also rubs off on the guests, which is what makes PiGa so relaxed and familiar. Apart from the top service and the pleasant atmosphere, the food is also outstanding. Both the Neapolitan pizza with extremely fluffy dough and fresh ingredients, as well as the fresh and creamy pasta leave nothing to be desired. We are really happy to welcome PiGa to our beautiful Sülz and look forward to more beautiful evenings!

A real piece of Napoli in the middle of Sülz!! My wife and I have gotten to know a lot of the food culture there during numerous vacations in Italy and both said that this shop doesn't have to hide from the local cuisine in any way!! We came here out of longing and never want to be without this food again. But it's not just the food alone, but also the extremely charming service and the cozy ambience that make you immediately feel at home. Strangers became friends. And I hope for Toni and his team that this store gets more attention!

For me it's also the best pizza in Cologne. So far all the pizzas I've eaten there have been really tasty, especially the dough. The restaurant has a nice location. In summer you can dine comfortably and quietly outside in the courtyard. You can feel that it is a small, homely family business. The staff is always friendly and attentive. We always leave with a smile at the end and are happy to come back with a smile. :D

The terrace is nice, but the arrangement of the tables is a bit narrow. The antipasti plate was generous, but we were missing any ham or cheese. We had pizza spinaci with prawns and the lasagne from the daily menu. Both tasted great to us. Unfortunately we later had some stomach/intestinal problems from the lasagna. Will definitely go again

Super nice service with delicious food and good vegan options. We'd love to come back!

You won't find better pizza in Köln. The dough is perfectly fluffy and crispy. The toppings are high quality and just the right amount. Best pizza I've tried so far

The pizza we ordered was really bad, the Ricola was completely baked and warm and crumpled up. The pasta was far too small for 16€ - taste-wise it was a disappointment!

Best pizza in a long time and best truffle pasta we've ever had!!! Great service and great atmosphere :)

Very tasty pizza eaten, the prices are perfectly reasonable and the service is friendly but reserved.

For me it's really the best pizza in all of Cologne!

Really very good pizza with excellent and fresh ingredients.

Super nice restaurant with super good pizza! We spontaneously got a place on a Saturday evening. Nice atmosphere and very friendly staff. Definitely coming back!

Mega delicious pizzas, beautiful location and very attentive service😊

Nice location in Sülz, very quiet with the option to eat outside or inside. Friendly and smiling staff, very good pizza (I'm from Capri so I know what a Neapolitan pizza is). Bravissimi!

Rarely have I had such a good pizza. Plus a very friendly and attentive service. Great praise!

The five of us were in the restaurant at 6:00 p.m. The service as well as the food get a clear 10/10 We'll definitely be back.

Food was good, service was super nice. Unfortunately the tables were very crowded and therefore very loud.

PiGa is a cozy little Italian restaurant. The service is very friendly and the food is very tasty. We had an appetizer platter and then pizza. Everything was very fresh and the pizza dough was particularly tasty. Finally there was Cologne Limocello (Suurello). We will be back definitely

I'll make it short: the best pizza I've ever had! The taste is simply incredibly good. The dough alone is something very special and you should definitely try it! And at absolutely moderate prices. From now on I have one pizza day a week at PiGa!

Very tasty pizza from the wood oven. Pasta and pizza bread also very tasty. Friendly service. Nice atmosphere. In summer there is also outdoor seating in an inner courtyard.

Unfortunately we were a bit disappointed and probably won't come back. We had reserved for 5 people and were given a table for 4 with an additional garden chair in front of us, which was unfortunately in the aisle and thus hindered the waiters. The waitress who served us was very unfriendly and, among other things, placed the wine we had ordered in the middle of the table without comment and listlessness and then hissed off again. After 2 hours we were rudely asked to pay. The remaining waiters seemed friendly and were more attentive. The pizza was delicious, hence 4 stars for the food. It's a shame, we were hoping for a little more.

Went there yesterday with 5 people and despite having reserved a table in advance, we were only able to get a garden chair placed as the 5th chair at the table in the middle of the aisle. In addition, we were probably pretty unlucky with our waitress, the bottle of wine was simply placed on the table without comment, we had to proactively ask for dessert and after 2 hours we were abruptly and very briskly asked to pay now that our reserved time had expired. However, two other waiters who served the table in the meantime were very friendly. The pizza was good, the pasta was fresh but with huge chunks of garlic in a very sour white wine sauce.

Very tasty food with high quality products, the buffalo mozzarella is more than recommended. Good address for exquisite Italian cuisine and something for every budget Gladly again 👍

Amazing pizza, amazing people, amazing atmosphere… Always fresh, tasty, good quality, food made with love and respect.The staff is really kind and friendly! This is definitely a place where we always come back!

Very great tasty food, good PLV with friendly service and nice ambience. Highly Recommended!!

The classic pizzas are a dream, the unusual ones sound more exciting than they are. Unfortunately, pistachios and salsicha were both unspectacular. Overall still recommended :)

Sehr nettes Personal Essen war sehr fein & die Wartezeit war auch total in Ordnung.

Zum ersten mal probiert und super positiven Eindruck gewonnen. Das Personal war zuvorkommend und total kinderfreundlich. Sehr gemütlich und doch modern und offen eingerichtet. Die Pizza war toll!

Belag top Qualität, Teig etwas zu dick und nicht knusprig genug bzw. etwas zu weich.

Sehr leckere Pizza und auch die Pastagerichte haben klasse geschmeckt. Netter und aufmerksamer Service. Vielen Danke. Herzliche Grüße aus Bonn Friesdorf Sabine und Familie

Hier bei PiGa hatten wir bisher jedes Mal einen schönen & spaßigen Abend - gemütliches Ambiente, super freundliches Personal & natürlich sehr leckere Pizza! 🍕 Ab jetzt wohl eine unserer Lieblings-Pizzerien in Köln!

Habe eine Spinat Pizza bestellt, kam mit verbranntem Boden und nach nichts schmeckendem Spinat. Der Appetit war mir vergangen, trotz Rückgabe bezahlen müssen, unglaublich. Nie wieder

Karte sehr übersichtlich und mehr als ausreichend an Auswahl. Vorspeise Anti Pasti Mista war überragend lecker! Lange keine so gute mehr gegessen. Pizzen sehr gut, a la Napoli 👌 Ambiente modern schick , 🔝. Bedienung immer aufmerksam und freundlich! Bei Piga fühlt man die familiäre Atmosphäre. A presto 👋🏽

Die leckerste Lasagne, die ich seit langem gegessen habe. Sehr freundliche Bedienung, ich komme bald wieder! Danke!

Eine der besten Pizzen, die ich in Deutschland gegessen habe. Zudem sehr freundlicher und aufmerksamer Service und gemütliches Ambiente. Sehr zu empfehlen - kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!

Kleines modernes italienisches Restaurant mit guter Küche

Das Ambiente ist gehoben. Das Essen war sehr lecker. Die Kreationen von den pizzas dir es gab waren nicht so meins. Es waren zimmliche Kreationen dabei. Meine Pizza 🍕 war die Fuoco usw. Mit Salsiccia und paprika. Obwohl das Fuoco (Scharf)sie überhaupt nicht war. Aber das bedeutet nicht im geringsten einen Stern Abzug. Es wurde auch nachgefragt auf alles zum besten ist. Guter Service. Alles im allem war es lecker und gut.

Absolut feudaler Pizzateig in unerreichter Qualität. In Köln kann man vermutlich nirgends einen Pizzateig finden der auch nur annähernd so gut ist. Der Belag war auch wirklich extrem lecker. Die Zutaten wirken wertig. Preislich leicht über dem was man von der Straßen-Pizzaria kennt, aber dafür geschmacklich Lichtjahre weiter. Ambiente ist gut. Der Laden gefällt, das Personal freundlich und aufmerksam. Auch gut finde ich die übersichtliche Speisekarte. Man wird nicht mit 100 verschiedenen Pizza-Kreationen überreizt. Das einzige was .ir gefehlt hat wäre hier noch das Bier vom Fass ;) ... Sonst wunschlos glücklich. Klare Empfehlung.

Jedes Mal ein "kleiner Urlaub" und ein schmackhaftes Erlebnis. Danke für Euren guten Geschmack und die tolle Atmosphäre, die auch IHR schafft.

Sehr nettes Restaurant. Gute, durchdachte, übersichtliche Karte die sich auf Pizza & Pasta konzentriert. Waren in einer großen Gruppe dort und das Essen war durchgängig sehr gut. Hochwertige Zutaten, gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Parken dort herausfordernd.

Ich war am Wochenende mit meiner Familie dort das erste Mal essen. Wir waren begeistert! Die Pizza war super lecker :) Kommen definitiv wieder!

Richtig guter Laden! 1a Service

Ein wunderschönes kleines Lokal, ganz modern eingerichtet. Die Speisekarte ist nicht riesig, aber es gibt eine gute Auswahl. Das Essen ist fantastisch! Die Pizzen suchen ihresgleichen - einfach ein Gedicht. Der Service ist ebenfalls überragend. Man fühlt sich, als gehörte man zur Familie. Absolute Empfehlung!

War gestern zum ersten Mal mit der Familie dort und als leidenschaftlicher Pizza-Esser kann ich nur sagen: Es gibt kaum ernsthafte Konkurrenz für diese Pizza in Köln! Darüber hinaus sehr nettes und zuvorkommendes Team. 5 Sterne! Immer wieder gerne! İ

Pizza war fantastisch. Es wurden offenbar sehr hochwertige Zutaten verarbeitet und die Pizza war super. Haben uns sogar noch eine mit nach Hause genommen, für den nächsten Tag.

Leider leider war eine unserer Pizzen sehr verbrannt am Rand sowie unten drunter sodass ich sie nicht essen wollte. Ist natürlich dann blöd, wenn man sich auf eine Pizza freut. Da wir sie abgeholt haben, leider erst zuhause bemerkt. Geschmacklich war die andere sehr gut.

Wir hatten einen super schönen Abend, mit unglaublich leckerer Pizza (in DE selten sowas gutes aufgetischt bekommen) und wirklich 1A Service (authentisch und null aufdringlich)! Sehr empfehlenswert, auch super faire Preise.

Der Laden hat mich umgehauen… habe mir mit meiner Frau antipasti, Pizza und pasta geteilt. Alles überragend! Das tiramisu war die absolute Krönung. Wenn ich in Köln leben würde, wäre ich Stammgast.

Pizza war klasse. Preise waren auch sehr OK. Service super nett. Für 5 Sterne beim Ambiente ist es einfach zu laut. Liegt an der Lokation.
