Restaurant Michelangelo in Rothenburg ob der Tauber

Yeah, it's like that... pretty average

The ambience was very pleasant and the food was impeccable.

Top Italian in Rothenburg. We reserved well in advance and got a nice table. Food was very tasty, large selection of wines and fast service.

Stopped in there for dinner on a vacation trip. No parking problems, food okay. I can recommend the restaurant.

Super service, fast and gentle staff, the food was very tasty. I will recommend to everyone

Very good food, pleasant atmosphere, friendly service, can be recommended

Nice place to eat in RodT. Stays open during afternoon. Close to one of the main city gates. No local but good Italian food. Service is OK on courtesy and attention on different languages. We have tried the tomato and legume soups and the Quattro estagione pizza and they were both ok

The noodles were a bit very garlicky, but it was still super tasty! 1A Italian

Very nice restaurant with friendly service and excellent Italian cuisine. We were lucky enough to get a table for four people without a reservation. But I would always recommend making a reservation because you can't miss out on such good food. Thank you very much for the wonderful evening.

Very friendly, bright and great ambience. We were very satisfied with the service. Highly recommend gluten free pizza. Restaurant acoustics very quiet. Comfortable seats. We'd love to come back when we're nearby.

Delicious food and friendly service!

Everything is just great. Nothing to complain about.

Our favorite restaurant in Rothenburg! The food tastes excellent, the quality of the dishes and service remain top for years. We eat here every time we visit Rothenburg (unless it's a Thursday, the restaurant is closed) and will continue to do so!

I can fully recommend the Michelangelo!

Top Italian, highly recommended

We've been there several times now and I can only recommend this restaurant!! All dishes are freshly prepared and have a very, very good quality 👍. The ambience is excellent.

Unfortunately our server was rude and unpleasant and the food was bland.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is quite modern and you feel comfortable. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The food is really tasty and recommended.

We were very pleased with our visit to the restaurant. The service was very attentive and courteous. The food came quickly, looked very good and tasted great. All in all great 👍🏼

Conditional. Service and ambience was good. The food looked appealing but unfortunately not to our taste. For us it wasn't worth the money. But everyone has to decide for themselves...it's purely a matter of taste.

Very good restaurant, prices are reasonable for the tourist town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber. Of course you have to order seats in advance, otherwise you won't get a seat.

I had aglio olio and seafood pasta. The seafood was fresh and the aglio olio was the best. It was delicious so I made a reservation for dinner!

I ordered seafood, olives, salad, gorgonzola, and arrabbiata and it was very delicious. I liked all the food.

Perfect food!!! Exceptional service with all the kindness provided by the waiter Olsi, who served us well and even lent us an umbrella when it started to rain. I recommend it!!!’ Ten out of ten

I highly recommend this restaurant. The food and service was amazing. It was the best crème brûlée I have ever had! Thank you for the amazing experience and dinner ☺️

Super lecker und sehr nett. Unkompliziert ohne Reservierung noch einen Tisch bekommen. Ging auch unglaublich schnell. Jederzeit wieder !

Highly recommended as it's incredibly tasty.

Surprisingly tasty. If you want to experience real Italian cuisine, don't hesitate, go!

I invited my husband to Michelangelo for his birthday and we didn't regret it. We were very enthusiastic about the food. We had bruschetta as a starter. It was very good. For the main course my husband had pizza with mussels and seafood. He really enjoyed the pizza. I had pork fillet with gorgonzola sauce, walnuts and butter tagliatelle, which was really great. I would order it again. For dessert I had tonka bean cream on fruity apple compote and roasted almonds. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The restaurant looks very elegant and radiates a pleasant warmth. If we come back to Rothenburg, we will definitely go to Michelangelo again. You should definitely book in advance, otherwise it will be difficult to get a seat.

We arrived late in the city and went out for dinner. We arrived at the restaurant at 9:15 pm and were told that the restaurant would close at 10 pm, and that only one glass of wine would be available…. We ordered pasta bolognese, which was lacking in salt; carbonara, which was good; and lasagna, which was good. Due to the time, we were only able to have one glass of wine. Dessert was out of the question. The waiter who served us at the end was actually nice. But we were in a hurry and couldn’t even eat half of it. Photos of the January 2025 menu.

Ein tolles Restaurant mit wunderbaren Essen und netten Bedienungen.

Restaurant Michelangelo is a delicious Italian restaurant. The interior is spacious and comfortable. When you sit down, the boss will turn on the small table lamp, which makes it even more romantic. We came here on 11/19/2024 and two of us ordered APEROL VANILLA SPRITZ, Bitter Lemon, Vegetable soup, Panzerotti ripieni di funghi porcini al burro e zucchine, guarniti, Spaghetti Mixed Seafood. Aperol is a nice drink, but I prefer Bitter Lemon. The vegetable soup is delicious, very fresh and sweet. The pasta is really delicious, the seafood is fresh and tasty, and the noodles have a solid texture. If you have the opportunity to visit Rothenburg, you should not miss this Italian restaurant.

Very tasty food, a little expensive, but worth it. Very nice service, I'll be back!

I did enjoy my visit, service and food.

We had reserved a table. An older couple without a reservation was in the restaurant before us and invited themselves to sit at the table with us because they didn't want to wait until something became available. "You can share the table" - so much for a romantic dinner for two ( wedding anniversary) 😅 The waitress was also perplexed when the man said that, just like me. Unfortunately I missed the moment to reject it. Now we sat there. Everyone almost silent at the table. Then a table became available (after we all had an appetizer) and the waitress told the couple they could now change tables. The man actually said "No, that's fine" 😭 she then said again "Another table is free. Let's let the young people sit here alone". They then went to the other table. Another waiter later said to us, “Now you have peace and quiet” - everyone was perfectly able to read the atmosphere ❤️ Now about the food We had the bruschetta (2 larger slices) for the two of us - alone plus the main menu it might have been a bit too much in my opinion Wonderful taste 👍🏽 A pizza spaghetti bolognese And my highlight is the tiramisu! I haven't found such a great restaurant in a long time. Unfortunately we were only here for one night. But we will definitely eat here again on our next visit Thanks to all the restaurant employees ❤️

Six of us went, the pumpkin tortellini was just good, the duck dish interesting, the rigatoni was good, the bolognese ok, the carbonara unfortunately one of the worst we ate, they probably cut the egg, the spaghetti was muddy.... What can we say about the pizza with the hard cut egg and the white cookie-like dough? The crème bourlé is very good. Disappointment after the comments we read. Overpriced we'd say

Everything was really great, we would love to come back!

Very nice restaurant with great food! We were really excited! Thank you for the food!

Friendly and helpful staff. The pizza is good. Low noise. Cozy place

We recently went to Restaurant Michelangelo, and it was definitely worth our time and money! When we entered we were kindly seated by a very nice waiter. The place looked amazing and had a great overall atmosphere. It had a fancy, cozy and professional look. The food was brought relatively quick, and it tasted amazing at a reasonable price. Our waiter was nice and friendly just like the other people working there. It is a place definitely worth visiting. A great Italian restaurant you don’t want to miss out on.

We were at Michelangelo on Sunday and today. The food was very finely tuned, very tasteful, beautifully presented, the service was very friendly. Perfect all round and can be recommended.

Great gluten free pizza and pasta!

Unfortunately we didn't make a reservation and still got a place for about 1 hour. The food was super tasty and quick. Super great service, extremely friendly staff. Absolute recommendation. We shared the starter of beef carpaccio with buffalo mozzarella. Then ordered a pizza and a calzone. Great pizza dough! For dessert there was a tiramisu and a Dubai chocolate inspired tiramisu, both very tasty and beautifully presented. If we come to Rothenburg again we will definitely make reservations in good time. By the way, dogs are also welcome here, but it can be a bit cramped in places with large dogs. As a precaution, we didn't have the Bernese and the mixed breed with us.

The restaurant is not very big. The food is very delicious. Good service staff, good atmosphere, delicious spaghetti.

The fish (cod, sea bream) was fantastic, fresh, very little fat, deliciously served with salad and vegetables, the taste was an absolute poem👌. So you can go to the restaurant in a health-conscious way. Prices are completely reasonable, the atmosphere is very cozy and the service is very friendly and professional.

Nice restaurant, very kind staff, despite the delays regarding the reservations. Food is great and tasty. Watch out at chili oil😂 is real spicy! All the good reviews are true.

Very beautiful and delicious. The environment, service and food are all very nice. We liked it very much.

We didn't have a reservation, but were seated after a short wait. The food was of good quality, the price is in the upper segment.

Magnificent site and magnificent attention. Extensive menu and prices without abuse

Das Restaurant ist modern gestaltet. Das Essen und Service waren gut. Allerdings ist die Akkustik nicht gut. Es ist sehr laut dort.

Small, delicious Italian with handmade pasta, had mussels with spaghetti, salmon lasange with fresh salmon spinach, tiramisu, chocolate cake with a liquid center, great service

Although very nice food!!! The tortellini stuffed with pumpkin and porcini mushrooms, divine!!!

Fantastic food, good prices for the area and staff are excellent. Highly recommended.

Delicious, typical Italian food. According to my taste, the portions could have been a little larger. A reservation makes sense, unless you are lucky and a table becomes available. The restaurant is very busy. Definitely recommended.

A wonderful restaurant with a superbly created menu. Husband and wife Michaele (in the kitchen), and Basia (front of house) treat customers to an amazing selection of Italian dishes. The food is delicious with the fresh seafood pasta dishes being a favourite. The pumpkin filled tortellini with porcini mushrooms was sublime. The fresh pasta lasagna tasty and filling. And to top it off there are delightfully delicate desserts such as crème brulé and Dubai style tiramisu. This place is a must during your visit to Rothenburg.

The location is elegant and at the same time you feel at home. The food is very good starting from the pizza to the meat. My husband and I travel 100km to come here to eat!! We highly recommend

Food excellent. Very friendly. Without a reservation we got a place for 4 people for 2 hours.

Our service was very relaxed and friendly despite the full dining room. The waitress's recommendations were excellent. Food was very tasty, the pasta was perfectly al dente. Would love to come back.

Michelangelo in Rothenburg may be on its way to earning a one star Michelin review. We dined there two nights in a row while in the city and it was magnificent both times. Our waiter Olsi was a superstar both nights in Service, hospitality, professionalism, composure, and we saw the love of his job with him. All other personnel at Michaelangelo were top notch in our experience. All our foods, the salmon in paper with vegetables, etc were so good that we almost ordered it the next night. The bruschetta, soup, green salad, were above the extraordinary. It was fine dining in a huge surprise way at reasonable prices. Classy Xmas decoration and Olsi also came Out as Santa Claus to a Christmas song and handed out candy to all at Every table along with great uplifting holiday music. We found out the Santa appearance was as Olsi’s idea. It was great!! Olsi Also Looked great by the way! I don’t have time to talk more, but you can trust me that Michaelangelo will Be referred by us to other friends who visit!! It’s a must dine while in the city.

Our waiter, Olsi was wonderful! He made is a fun dining experience. The food was amazing. I ordered the best gluten free pizza I've ever had. The creme brulee was outstanding.

Great restaurant, very attentive staff and delicious food. It was a great ending for us in Rothenburg. The stuffed ravioli with pumpkin was a delight.

I had a great time. They were able to provide me with a gluten free pumpkin soup and pizza. Both were very good. We had an excellent waiter (Olsi). I highly recommend Restaurant Michelangelo’s.

Had a great meal at Michelangelo tonight. Great experience and ocdi was a server and he was every good . I would definitely come back again.

Very nice café on the edge of Rothenburg's city center. Very nice service.

Wirklich sehr zu empfehlen! Preis -Leistung stimmt absolut, geschmacklich waren sowohl Vorspeisen, Hauptspeisen und Desserts sehr gut. Alles wird ansprechend und z.T. kunstvoll angerichtet👍🏻alle vom Personal sehr freundlich und gastorientiert!!! Wir empfehlen es gerne weiter und kommen gerne wieder.

The food is exceptionally good and promises high quality at reasonable prices. The waitresses are very attentive, friendly and accommodating. I can only recommend everyone to eat here.

Very friendly staff and very tasty food. We'd love to come back.

A feel-good atmosphere is offered here. Excellent food and professional, very friendly service. Highly recommended.

A True Italian Gem. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome—like we were part of their family. Their warmth and attentiveness truly set the tone for an amazing dining experience. The food? Absolutely incredible. Every dish was packed with authentic flavors that left us eager to come back for more. It’s rare to find a place where both the atmosphere and the cuisine shine this brightly. We’ll definitely be returning soon!

We got the restaurant recommendation from our hotel and were not disappointed. We ate homemade ravioli with mushroom filling and freshly grated truffles. Really very tasty. For dessert we had a dessert with tonka beans, not too sweet and therefore a successful ending for us (see photo).

Pleasant restaurant with very friendly staff!😊

The lady/staff seemed condescending and constantly watched us, which made me feel unwelcome. The food was okay, but the service unfortunately spoiled the overall impression.

An unpleasant atmosphere because the owner constantly watches us while we eat.

The restaurant is very good, close to the principal city gate, beautiful atmosphere! The food was delicious, I have ate pumpkin raviolis, amazing! The service is excellent, the waiter Olsi was very professional, polite and friendly. It was raining when we left the restaurant, Olsi even borrowed his umbrella to us! We returned it on the day after, but unfortunately we did not meet him again. We super recommended it!

Very friendly and the food was excellent.

We loved this place and our waiter was truly delightful and attentive. I think his name was Ocsi? Then there's the food...delicious! We started with a scallop appetizer that came with a tomato stuffed with shrimp. YUM! We also split a great side salad. Then moved on to the Branzino entree prepared with pumpkin and potatoes cooked in a bag. My wife had the Carbonara and it was perfect! You can't miss here. Really wonderful dinner.

A good restsurant with very nicely decorated plates. The food was also good, as were the drinks😉. A very nice atmosphere, you sit nicely and not close to strangers. Thank you very much❤️

Michelangelo was an answer to our weary traveler prayers. No rez? No prob! They happily sat our fam of 4 and treated us like long-lost cousins. Food, drink, service all 5 star + an added bonus of a watch-lover waiter, bonding over rare American time pieces. Leave the gun, take the cannoli

The service was very friendly and attentive. Despite the full house, we quickly got a clean table. The pizza was very tasty!

Very nice restaurant. Very kind waiters, very good food 😊

Beautiful and welcoming place. Very kind staff and excellent Italian cuisine

Very tasty and also very friendly 😊

For lunch on October 29, I ordered seafood pasta, but the mussels in it were not fresh. Diarrhea occurred half an hour later. Not recommended.

The food was very, very tasty, not the typical Italian food you usually know. The food is always served personally by the chef and is generally upscale, tasty Italian cuisine. We'd love to come back!

Very good quality food, prices are reosanable. The Salmon Lasagne and Creme Brullee were really good. This is the perfect place for dinner in “ob der Tauber”. I would recommend making a reservation since there aren’t many tables.

Homemade pasta to perfection... A poem from the beginning, look at the pictures for yourself... delicious is all I can say... The dessert, a delicious feast for the eyes that enchanted the senses Excellent service, very friendly and attentive staff Italian delights in a family atmosphere, modernly furnished with style

On Saturday there were 4 of us eating there because we made our annual trip to Rothenburg. Unfortunately, this day didn't turn out well because of the food there. I specially ordered a gluten-free alternative which unfortunately didn't arrive. Basically, you are also advised that not everything is 100% processed. This wouldn't have been a problem either. The service was sublime. The middle-aged lady with very short hair took the crown with her unfriendly behavior and snippy manner. The ambience was ok, rather cheap. Dirty glasses rounded everything off.

Ate very tasty. Juicy sea bream and great lamb. Fast and friendly service

Service is unacceptable and unfriendly

A to Z was VERY FINE, thank you

Very good service, gluten-free pasta and pizza also possible. Food very tasty.

Big praise to the restaurant. The food was so delicious, a complete taste explosion. The staff was super friendly. If I didn't live so far away, my favorite restaurant would be found here. Thank you for the wonderful evening.

Food becomes art, from the ambience to the last bite. Thanks!

I ordered an aperol vanilla spritz before dinner - good and reasonably priced. We also ordered a bottle of water and the €16 caprese salad, and wanted to wait till see what other courses we felt like after the salad.  However the waiter "demanded" we order the rest of our meal and any wine if desired.  So we did.  Before, I had taken 2 sips of my cocktail, the caprese arrived.  Unfortunately, the tomatoes were tasteless, almost no basil, the bufala mozz tasted like store bought, and served with cold white flavorless bread!   Then,  the 2 glasses of wine arrived.  I still had over 1/2 of my cocktail!  So I had to hurriedly finish my cocktail. Too rushed - not conducive to relaxing for an expensive meal. Shortly after they removed our salad plates, our mains arrived.  I had a delicious salmon and porcinis ravioli, and my wife had an equally delicious linguine with porcinis dish, both reasonably priced at under €18 each. Thankfully they didn't rush us anymore, and the rest of the meal was very pleasant. So, in summary, the caprese was poor and very expensive, and the service at the beginning of the meal was "upsetting",  but the rest of the meal was very pleasant.

The best restaurant I've been to so far!! Everything from the food, service and ambience is really good here.

The service was a bit slow, but the waiters were attentive and it was probably our classiest dining experience. This was a good place to order desserts, because it was almost a stand-alone operation with elaborate concoctions, and I got some mint and whipped cream thing where the chocolate ice cream was plentiful, but buried at the bottom.

Great place to visit when you are in Rothenburg odT. I ordered a filetto di salmone that was delicious! Thanks for the kind service!

The food and drinks tasted wonderful. As a starter we had the spaghetti aglio oilo (forgive me for my bad Italian) and the spaghetti carbonara. For the main course there were 2 pizzas and pork fillet garnished with a pistachio cream. As a finish we chose the tiramisu. Overall the experience was wonderful and we had a very nice evening. P.S. Can only be recommended

Seemed very upscale for the area. Service was good, nice menu options, our spaghetti was was very good tasting and plenty for our lunch and some takeaway.

Very nice atmosphere and nice restaurant, you immediately felt at home when you walked in. The food was very good, the selection, variety and quality of the ingredients was really a bit surprising. Service was also very friendly, even though we had to wait a little longer for some things, everything was still within limits. Cocktails and ice cream can only be recommended and are really reasonably priced.
