Restaurant Don Marcello in Krefeld

We were there with our little daughter and had a very nice evening. The food was delicious, we didn't have to wait long, the waitress was very nice, great atmosphere. All in all, highly recommended!

Yes, if the service gets better

!!Attention Watch out!! New owner and this year. So don't take all the reviews before 2025 too seriously! Went there for the third time today and a lot has happened, after a long time the long-awaited operating area is back. There are more staff at the front in the beer garden and they are super friendly. Prices are completely reasonable, and the pizza we ate there today was simply great. The beer garden is still being designed a lot, as I've heard, so it's ideal for families with the playground where the kids can move around freely. We will still test the operating area, but what we could see looked very good. Thank you for being able to enjoy delicious food and the beautiful weather there again. However, I hope that the opening times in the BEER GARTEN will change to benefit flight operations and guests who walk past it every day. Please keep it up ♥️

2025/03 Beer garden: Girls behind the bar are mercilessly overwhelmed! Don't understand the orders, calculate incorrectly! Cold currywurst, fries taste like dishwater, mayo drowns the food! And bad Italian hits are booming out of the loudspeaker in an obtrusive and loud manner!

The pizza was very tasty, the salad mista was also tasty, but had a lot of stalks. Super tasty aioli. Nice service, comfortable chairs, best view of the sunset 🌄

Very friendly and we will stop there often. Highly recommended

We were here completely by chance during our dog walk. We actually just wanted to drink a little wine, which was VERY DELICIOUS. The bruschetta and pizza rolls were OUTSTANDING, the service was super friendly and accommodating. We are VERY satisfied and will definitely come back!

Super tasty pizza. Can only be recommended! In summer the ambience is definitely a 10 out of 10. Unfortunately, one point deducted because the service is very friendly but unfortunately not at all well-established. (No bread at the table, no napkin with the chilled wine bottle and we were asked by 3 different waiters if we had already ordered food, but we were still ordering drinks 2 seconds before) But that will definitely change in a few months when everything has settled down. The boss was also present every now and then and went to a few tables, which we thought was really great. So overall, absolutely recommended! We'll be back!

We ate there for the first time today. The food was delicious at moderate prices. Very friendly service. The beer garden was also open and well attended. A great addition after last year's standstill.

Super good experience. The food was fresh and tasted very good. The landlord Marcello is very warm and from Calabria. When the many candles were lit it became romantic. There are always great dishes off the menu. Tomatoes and rocket from southern Italy tasted like you were on vacation. Offner wine Lugana was very good.

First is Tasty Italian Staff polite, dogs also welcome. Monthly menu, menu well structured. Guaranteed to come again. Ps it's time for the staff! Everything has to come in first. Kind regards. Maik .B Ute F.B. 👍😉

Excellent cuisine, simply delicious.😋😋😋

This is my second 1⭐ review. I walk the dog there at least once a week. Once I was never there again. As you read here, nothing has improved. You can just hope for a new tenant.

Is it open sometimes or permanently closed? Was there several times, always closed, at the snack bar it says it's not there, then vacation etc.....???? What's going on there?

Local excursion destination with beautiful surroundings

One of the best Italian restaurants in Krefeld. We are regulars here. The food tastes phenomenal and the atmosphere is always super warm. Marcello is a great host. We always look forward to the delicious food. Good and fair price-performance ratio. Totally recommended for families, as there is a playground right next to it.

Owner has changed. Is now excellent Italian cuisine. Best pizza I've ever eaten.

First of all, it must be pointed out that this is not a review of the Don Marcello restaurant. But rather an evaluation of the snack bar/outdoor catering at the Egelsberg airfield with a playground. Last year this snack bar/outdoor dining was run by someone else. Apparently the operator changes every few years and none lasts long. It's a shame, but partly understandable. This is definitely a session business, despite the adjoining restaurant. But it's strange that the operator changes so often. So far it's been a mediocre snack bar. You couldn't expect much. It's a shame, because the number of visitors is always quite high in summer, if only because of the great playground and the glider airfield. But today we found a place that, sorry... was just bad. Garbage everywhere you looked! Under the tables, on the playground there was rubbish and broken glasses, in front of the kiosk there was an open rubbish bin and the rubbish was flying everywhere. Then it smelled terribly like old grease. The coffee just wasn't good. And apart from fries, currywurst and ice cream there is nothing else on offer. But the highlight is the broken wooden plane. Rotten, broken and with detached nails. An absolute risk of injury. We hope the new operator has closed everything there after we informed us? Last year it was at least clean, even if the restaurant wasn't a highlight, but today we decided not to visit this restaurant again in the near future. I really hope that the new operator will bring the store into shape and run it for longer than 2 or 3 years. But for that to happen, a lot has to change and improve. Sorry that the rating is so bad, but it has to be made known, otherwise nothing will change.

Yesterday after a long time we visited the beer garden at Egelsberg airfield and we were surprised. A new Italian took over the catering and there was also indoor dining in the beer garden. What was positive was not only the friendly staff but also the very tasty food (pizza and pasta dishes). The new gastronomic offering makes this beer garden an even nicer place to linger, especially at the end of the day and on weekends. Above all, parents can eat here in peace while the children can let off steam in the playground. Fries, currywurst and other small items are still offered in the beer garden. We had a completely successful evening in one of the most beautiful places in Krefeld. We wish the new Don Marcello restaurant all the best and many new, satisfied visitors.

It feels like a different tenant every year and, to be honest, never a really good one. If it turns out that this restaurant has now been taken over by what, according to the reviews, is a really good Italian restaurant, then we will definitely give it another chance in the summer. Yesterday, however, it really wasn't nice. Above all, the playground is completely dilapidated (we have pointed this out) and dangerous, there is rubbish and glasses everywhere in the borders, unkempt lawns and neglected flower boxes and unfortunately the tables outside are stuck. Benches and chairs also urgently need to be cleaned. The offer at the kiosk is at least still very reduced. Coffee works like that and you shouldn't have to smell the grease for the fries so badly. Maybe the timing was just stupid, but it's mid-May... nice weather can be expected. We really hope that the new tenants get this under control because it is simply a great destination.

The kiosk will be active again in the summer. There are fries and currywurst. The prices are ok, the portion of fries is not overly large. It's served in plastic plates, which is a shame... The atmosphere at the airfield is great!

The cafe / snack bar with playground is usually open from 12:00 (except Mondays).

To everyone who likes good food, top quality food Pizza rolls great We had noodles with beef fillet that was a dream Can confirm the 5.0 reviews Keep it up

We visited the restaurant for the first time this week and we will definitely be back. Good service, fair prices and really great Italian food!!

Price/performance and food were very tasty, the service was tried hard but a bit confused (possibly 1st day/temporary help), the boss himself was very nice. The dining room has the charm of a sports bar, but the boss told us that he will be moving into a new restaurant nearby in the summer. We will definitely come back and are looking forward to the new ambience. Definitely a recommendation for good and typical Italian cuisine.

Great food and world class service at good prices.

I've eaten here a few times, with the exception of today the food was always great, today unfortunately there were charcoal residues under every pizza and obviously very old mushrooms were used. I couldn't actually let my family eat in good conscience. Because the other times were always great, four stars.

We were there on December 23rd and can only recommend the restaurant. Very good food + excellent, authentic service. We will be back.

We ate here for the first time on Friday. We had a mixed starter that was very tasty and authentic. My pizza was excellent and, for my taste, the best in Krefeld and the surrounding area. My partner's pasta was also super tasty. The chef... Everything was explained to us when we had questions about his dishes (ingredients). The service in the guest room was excellent and we felt like we were at home. We will definitely stop by again

Very familiar atmosphere, I "landed" there at the invitation of my daughter, food perfect, service ditto, individual requests are happy to be accommodated.
