Prätor-Haus - Da Luigi in Lübeck

Very cozy and genuinely Italian restaurant, whimsically good food and good wine that was selected by our waitress Peggy. The service was fast and professional! Peggy had a lot to do in a crowded restaurant but still gave each guest a smile and some small talk as she went around serving, very homely and familiar :).

A very tasteful and historic location. The service and food were excellent! Table reservation for 2 people went very smoothly. We will definitely come back to this excellent ristorante.

Very tasty food in a great atmosphere. The staff was very friendly and the food came quickly!!

Excellent Italian restaurant in Lübeck's old town with exceptionally good quality and excellent service for tourist centers.

Historical ambience, romantic atmosphere, friendly service, excellent fresh food

Cozy local, delicious food at good prices. But the best thing was the super attentive, pleasant and happy staff. Great recommendation from here

Best Italian far and wide - absolute favorite Italian.😍 Food 10 🌟 out of 5 🌟 💛 Beautiful ambience in Lübeck's historic old town. Mega friendly staff It's best to always make a reservation......especially when the garden terrace opens again.🍀😘

My girlfriend and I had a fantastic New Year's Eve dinner here. Fabulous

Despite making reservations several weeks in advance for New Year's Eve, we as a group of 10 people who had traveled to Lübeck specifically for that evening were turned away in a very rude manner. When we arrived at the restaurant at the agreed time, it was suggested to us that we had definitely not made a reservation at this restaurant and were asked to look for something elsewhere. However, we were able to prove on site that we had called the restaurant several times to register additional guests and make the reservations. A solution from the operator would be expected to quickly resolve the problem. This did not happen in any way and getting a table at another restaurant at short notice on New Year's Eve is an impossibility. Despite the otherwise good reviews, I have to say that the quality of service we received was subpar. We would have loved to dine in this restaurant but under these circumstances I cannot recommend this place.

We booked a table for 10 people for New Year's Eve. The order was even confirmed to us again by phone. Unfortunately we were in the shop that evening and all the tables were taken. Instead of an apology we were asked outside. Mistakes can happen, but in our case 10 people had a ruined New Year's Eve and ended up on the street...

Ladies and Gentlemen I had reserved a table two weeks in advance for December 31st, 2024, New Year's Eve - for 10 people. The lady on the phone was courteous and friendly. We were talking about a table that is available open-end. Full of anticipation, friends came who had traveled 2 1/2 hours and we made our way to the restaurant. When we arrived we were greeted by a lady who looked surprised when we said we had a reservation. A gentleman came over and asked me when I called and said that it couldn't be that we had made a reservation if we didn't know that a 4-course menu was offered. He presented it as if I had made it up. To check if I was calling somewhere else, I looked up the phone number, which was the restaurant's phone number. I am disappointed that the Lord has treated me as if it were my fault. That's not how you treat customers. Sorry, none. Unfortunately we won't be going here anymore.

We reserved a table early by telephone, but unfortunately we were informed upon arrival that the reservation had not been made, contrary to what had been agreed. Unfortunately there was no compromise response and instead we were sent away.

The restaurant does not meet my expectations based on the top reviews here. The food and service are mediocre at best. We certainly won't be coming back.

The place was great! The house is old and very atmospheric. It looks and feels cosy. The stuff was very friendly and very fast. The food was delicious and they offer a welcome drink which is rare in Germany. Would highly recommend to visit the place if you are in Lübeck.

I have lived in Lübeck for over 25 years and unfortunately I have not been to this restaurant until now. Today was the first and definitely not the last time! It was just great! Simply recommended!

Simply recommended, we tried the Christmas menu on Christmas Eve, absolutely delicious, great owner, here the guest fills up at home, again and again.

Won't come back, the good rating is a bit incomprehensible to me. The food was okay and was delivered quickly, but in my opinion there are much better Italian restaurants in Lübeck in the same price category. Unfortunately the service was weak and quite unfriendly. The beer we ordered was only brought on the third request (and then charged three times even though only one arrived), the food was served grumpily and simply pushed into our hands with a 'Here'. The female employees in particular were quite rude in their service; there was no sign of friendliness. The only positive thing to note is the nice atmosphere.

Very good food, very good service.

Were here yesterday with 7 people for our Christmas party for dinner. The food was good and tasty. The service, however, was more than bad. At the beginning the waiter showed great euphoria, but was not seen at our table for the rest of the evening. In between we weren't even asked for a 2nd/3rd. Round drinks, let alone asked for a dessert/digestive/espresso after dinner. Instead, we were repeatedly asked about our glasses and whether we still needed them. That's not what I imagine a good Italian to be (website: "Best Italian in Lübeck"). Unfortunately no recommendation...

Despite an existing reservation, a group of over 20 people were turned away at the door on the confirmed date. Completely inaccessible behavior with refusal to clarify with a responsible body. Never, never again!

Había hecho reservas hace 2 meses para 6 personas el viernes 29 de noviembre. El día anterior recibí un mensaje del servicio de reservas: "Gute Nachrichten, calvo steht Ihr Essen im Prator - Haus - el Luigi an. Pero cuando llegamos al Luigi a la hora reservada ( 18 : 30 ) nos dijeron que habían cancelado nuestra reserva enviándome un correo electrónico media hora antes ( 17 : 57 ) . Afirman que habían tratado de contactarme por teléfono, pero no lo habían logrado porque había enumerado un número equivocado e indicando así que era MI culpa que nuestra reserva hubiera sido cancelada. En mi opinión esta explicación es un claro encubrimiento para ocultar el hecho de que nuestra mesa había sido 'vendida' a otros huéspedes hambrientos. Vinimos desde Dinamarca para experimentar Lübeck en Navidad y para tener una comida extraordinaria y deliciosa. Pero la forma en que nos trataron en el Luigi fue una desgracia.

Vi hade bokat bord men fick vänta 1h på bordet sen ytterligare 1h på maten. Otrevlig personal och väldigt trång lokal. Maten okej men inte mer.

Vores reservering var blevet væk. Heldigvis kunne vi fremvise en messenger samtale som dokumentation. Vi ventede 1/2 i baren og fik et bord. Lækre pastaretter med rigelig mad. Hyggelig restaurant med god akustik og mulighed for at snakke sammen.

Appetizer plate covered in balsamic vinegar. Everything just tasted the same. The eggplant is a mixture of wobbly to raw. Saffron risotto without saffron. Salmon on spinach without spinach but on an unseasoned bed of vegetables - rum steak with Gorgonzola sauce without Gorgonzola but with herb butter. - Service worker who had to send a colleague because she didn't understand you. If you're not up to Christmas parties, you shouldn't do it. Apparently a normal visit is ok. Unfortunately we cannot recommend it.

Very tasty pizza, top service, super fast and friendly. I'd love to come back.

A restaurant on the old town island of Lübeck in a side street near the pedestrian zone. The restaurant is located in a historic old town house, beautifully renovated and attractively furnished. The staff is friendly, funny and very attentive. We had made a reservation, which was certainly important as the restaurant was very busy in the evening. The food was very tasty, the pizzas were large, well topped and well prepared. The pasta dish was also very tasty but unfortunately the quantity was rather too little. The restaurant is definitely recommended.

We were there the day before yesterday and it tasted great and the service was also perfect

Ordered table for eight weeks. Still didn't get it. Forgot my wife's food. Steak Gorgonzola without Gorgonzola, service friendly but helpless. We canceled our New Year's Eve dinner for eight people today.

Very good, authentic Italian cuisine with good wines and aperitifs.

Wir waren schon mehrmals im Luigi, waren immer begeistert und fühlten uns gut bewirtet. Beim jetzigen Besuch mit 4 Freunden waren wir doch sehr enttäuscht. Bedauerlicherweise war der Service-Mann komplett überfordert. Aufgrund der Situation, dass leider eine Person erkrankt war, wurde uns verständlicherweise ein 4-er Tisch gegeben. Wir waren gegen 17:30Uhr die einzigen Gäste. Danach haben wir eine Flasche Wasser erhalten und die Gläser wurden befüllt, obwohl wir noch keine Getränke geordert hatten. Irgendwie hat die Service-Qualität und auch Portionsmenge der Speisen deutlich nachgelassen, wobei die Preise erhöht wurden. Ferner fehlt auch inzwischen grundsätzlich der "DANKEschön-Gruß des Hauses (Espresso, Sambuca, Grappa etc.)". Das ist insgesamt sehr schade. Anmerkung zur vorherigen Reservierung: Leider ist es bisher immer bei Reservierungen per QUANDOO so, dass wir im Nachgang vom Reservierungsportal angeschrieben werden. Angeblich sollen wir nicht beim reservierten Termin da gewesen sein. Das stimmt aber leider immer nicht!!! Warum klappt es nicht? Woran liegt es? Zweimalige Nachfragen per Email bei der Chefin blieben leider unbeantwortet. Leider gibt es viel Verbesserungspotential. Zunächst wechseln wir das Lokal und beobachten die Bewertungsportale.

A really excellent restaurant. Brilliant food, great ambience. What is particularly noteworthy, however, is the exceptionally attentive and friendly service. Everything was always great for our group of 20 people. Whenever I'm in Lübeck again, I'm already looking forward to dinner there

Pizza with frozen vegetables (cauliflower) - wasn't that good... and: if a guest didn't like it, to be fair, an offer (dessert, drink, something) should come, but it didn't. I wouldn't go there again.

Excellent price-quality ratio!!

Can only be recommended. We were completely satisfied

Great location, very good food, great service, nice operators. A bit noisy when full. But that is due to the height of the room. A location in an (old) residential building - brilliantly implemented.

Thank you for the nice stay in your restaurant❤️

Thanks so much guys! Delicious, Beautiful and Very Strong 😋🥰💪 HI, D'Angelo family.

Wir waren schon oft im Luigi und sind dieses Mal total enttäuscht worden ! Alles ist anders geworden , kein echtes Lächeln der Inhaberin war mehr zu sehen und es kam mir lieblos vor ( das Essen leider auch ) ich hatte zb . Saltimbocca ( nicht gut ) Fleisch so dünn und lauwarm , Gemüse hart und nicht so dente , insgesamt nicht schmackhaft ! Mein Sohn Scampis ( Gemüse auch hart dazu ) die Pizzen 2 Mal viel zu dünn ! Wir mögen zwar keinen dicken Teig , aber dieser war wie Papier ! Prosseco süß und das Bier nicht kalt ! Was waren es noch für Zeiten , als Luigi noch da war ! Wir hoffen sehr , das es wieder besser wird und die Inhaber wieder Freude an ihrem Restaurant haben !

Fantastic food atmosphere like being in Italy 😃 Even the music was perfect. If you have to say something, the serving was a bit fast. But not the great importance, can only be recommended 👍🏼☺️

Pretty old town restaurant, great food, nice service with humor

Super friendly service. Good pasta dishes and excellent desserts

The best food, very delicious, good ambience friendly staff.,

Very authentic and delicious Italian. The food was really good and the service was also very polite and professional. Have rarely eaten such good Italian food. We'd love to come back!

Great Italian restaurant. Very tasty food, very nice service. Gladly again!

The best restaurant in the town.

RECOMMENDED! - HOSPITALITY is very important here: Dinner for 2 adults and 2 children could be easily reserved. The pizzas and the dessert were excellent, unfortunately the Diavolo pizza was too spicy for the youngest - the result: complete understanding for our son and another pizza could be chosen to eat, although NEITHER of the two pizzas had to be paid for. Something like that has to be praised. Thank you again from our family 😃

Had a lovely experience with my family. Staff were attentive and friendly. Would recommend

Delicious food,friendly staff.I would say the best restaurant in the town.I will go again soon.

Lovely restaurant.For sure i will go again .

This is one of the best Italian places I’ve been to! Top quality food and service. If you are visiting Lübeck, definitely avoid the boardwalk restaurants that pretend to be proper Italian, and come straight here. Very fair prices for very good quality!

Best Italian in Lübeck Very friendly welcome even without a reservation. Wonderful table on the "upper deck". The house exudes atmosphere and its owners are the perfect complement. Great fresh food, delicious daily recommendations and super attentive service. It doesn't get any better. A special compliment to the chef!!!

Amazing restaurant and very friendly staffs!! The foods are delicious!! 👌🏾 I will definitely come back again!

Auch ohne Reservierung bekamen wir einen tollen Platz auf dem „Oberdeck“. Der wirklich sehr freundliche Empfang war klasse. Nun zum Essen. Die tollen Empfehlungen des Tages waren vortrefflich. Der Koch versteht sein Handwerk und man spürt hier überall die Liebe zur Gastronomie. Das Ambiente des „alten Hauses“ ist nicht zum überbieten. Ich verstehe, warum der Laden hier sehr gut besucht war, und sicher auch weiter so besucht wird. Meine absolute Empfehlung und großes ein Lob ans Team. Grazie Mille a tutti

Very good address! Fresh and very delicious food! We had a blast! Attentive and pleasant staff, also very good atmosphere!

Like at home, Italy on the table

Tisch vorher bestellt und, sehr freundlich zugewiesen, auch bekommen. "Gemütlich" kann es nicht richtig werden. Dafür ist das Restaurant zu italienisch (zum Glück!) und auch zu beliebt. Also: Volle Bude hier! Mächtig was los. Musik, Hochzeitsgäste, und eben voll und entsprechend laut. Aber irgendwie auch ansprechend. Die nette Bedienung - vom Senior bis zu den aufmerksamen Service-Kräften. Eine solche Wertschätzung - egal, was von dem Besuch zu erwarten ist - das war schon angehnehm. Die Bedienung kannte nicht nur die Karte - sondern auch die Gerichte im Detail. Die Frage nach der Weißweinsose bei Saltimbocca alla romana wurde korrekt beantwortet - das kann nicht jeder. Auch das risotto frutti di mare waren perfekt. Der Caffé in den kleinen dicken Tassen war nicht nur typisch italienisch - der war sehr bekömmlich. So haben wir das Da Luigi sehr zufrieden verlassen. Alles war seinen Preis wert.

The pizza and tiramisu were very tasty, the atmosphere in the beautiful old building and garden was very inviting..

The best restaurant in the town.

Amazing restaurant, friendly staff, delicious food. I will go again for sure

Delicious pizza and very loving employees!

Very tasty Italian food!!! Good price-performance ratio. Tim, the waiter was very attentive and friendly. The ambience is exceptionally beautiful as the restaurant is in a particularly beautiful, ancient building. You can also take a seat in the garden courtyard, which is also very inviting.
