Ristorante Ciao Ciao in Timmendorfer Strand

Very tasty food (Pizza Capricciosa and Tagliatelle with salmon) very friendly service and normal prices!

Nice atmosphere, very nice service and delicious food

Very attentive and friendly. Food was a little too salty. Restaurant interior very nice.

Service: 3 stars, well-intentioned, because the waitresses were very friendly. Waiting times for food and service when it's busy can be over 20 minutes. The space is okay. The food: The pizzas were good, not exceptional, but good (they tasted almost like they were freshly baked).

Authentic Italian food... pasta all dente... fresh Bolognese, delicate red sauce... simply delicious 😋 Lasagna the same. Very tasty 😋. One star deducted because the staff could have been a bit friendlier. We felt a bit rushed.

Truly excellent and authentic Italian cuisine. Thank you very much, and we'll be happy to come back.

I have no idea why there are so many 5-star reviews here. The service is unfriendly and gives the impression that they don't want to serve guests. And the food: pizza tastes bland and unseasoned, and the spaghetti is a disaster (pre-packaged food is better). Sorry, I haven't had food this bad in a long time.

We visited Ciao Ciao again with a somewhat larger group. As always, the food was delicious and the service was friendly. Unfortunately, this time, everyone didn't get their food at the same time. The pizzas arrived much later. Oh well, that happens sometimes. We'll definitely be back.

What a shame! We were here today (June 26, 2025). The service was perfect. The starter was Bruschetta al Tartufo, sensational. For main course, we had Pizza Mare e Monti, incredibly delicious, and Spaghetti Bolognese, which was surprisingly bad. We (over 50) have never eaten such bland pasta and sauce. Even with pepper, salt, and Parmesan, it couldn't add any flavor. Without the Spaghetti Bolognese, I would have given it 5 stars, but it just doesn't deserve more than 0 points, which is a real shame.

Very tasty! Without a reservation, we waited about 15 minutes for a table.

I got a seat 15 minutes before closing time. The waiters were very friendly and cheerful. My Arrosto di Agnello was very tender and aromatic. The desserts were well-portioned, balanced, and delicious.

I'd say it was okay to good. The waiter was super friendly, even to our son. The ambiance—especially from the outside—could be a bit more polished. The pizza was okay—but my wife's salad, unfortunately, lacked flavor and the dressing was lacking.

Typically Italian with friendly staff, always up for a laugh, top service with a feel-good atmosphere

Closed on the day we wanted to visit Ciao Ciao, Tuesday! I don't think a place in such a touristy place can be closed!

A good Italian restaurant, but nothing exceptional. The price/performance ratio is decent considering the local standards. Advance reservations are recommended.

Very good food, very friendly service. Food: Mixed salad, bruschetta, spaghetti bolognese, spaghetti ciao ciao, pizza pescatore, tiramisu

The pizza base is particularly good. The service is very friendly. The baked mushrooms are delicious.

It's a manageable Italian restaurant with extremely friendly service. Very good food with a good price-performance ratio. We felt very comfortable.

We ordered a lasagna to go for €16.90. We lived right across the street from the restaurant. The lasagna was small, cold, and tasteless; it tasted very watery! We won't order anything from there again!

We were looking for a little dessert. The chocolate cake was perfect for us and was delicious, as was the beer. Great service, friendly waiters, we like it.

Super nice staff, even if you come without a reservation, they try to make everything possible. We felt very comfortable there...whether it was bruschetta as a starter or the pizza...it was great...thanks for everything

We liked this restaurant so much that we chose the Ciao Ciao restaurant four nights out of our six days of vacation. It offers a good selection of delicious dishes at a very good price-performance ratio. The incredibly friendly staff deserves special mention! Absolutely fantastic, keep up the good work! We'll definitely visit you again.

I ate here with my daughter today. A small pizza for her and a regular one for me. Very friendly service. We got a table right away without a reservation. The pizzas had a great, crispy, thin base, and were very tasty. I highly recommend this place.

Very good 🍕 in a pleasant atmosphere

Great value for money, staff very friendly

In any case Very good, tasty pizza, I really liked the Bianco Tuscany pizza

In any case, I can only say good things. All around very satisfied. Will appear there again. 👍👍👍👍👍

Best Italians and very friendly

The food was excellent, we couldn't complain about it. We had to wait an hour for the food. Service was friendly and came to the table regularly. It took a while to get assigned to a table.

Great food. Tuna steak at its best. Waiters are super nice and real Italians. The walk is definitely worth it.

Great food, nice service staff. You can't go wrong here.

Super delicious food and very friendly staff.

A very inviting restaurant, with very friendly staff. The children are given something to paint and the food is prepared quickly. We were very satisfied.

Food was delicious, plentiful and nice staff. You should make a reservation

The food is really good and the service is awesome. We can only recommend a visit here

Super friendly atmosphere. Unfortunately the food wasn't for us and we can't recommend it. The noodles were still way too hard.

Very nice and friendly service. Food very tasteful and good, plenty of drinks to choose from. Gladly again.

An Evening of Light and Shadow Overall, it was a lovely evening – the ambiance seamlessly matched the holiday mood and created a pleasant atmosphere. However, the culinary experience left much to be desired. The pizza was unimpressive, and the lasagna was quite small for the price. The service was particularly disappointing: After the meal was served, our table seemed forgotten. No questions were asked about dessert or any other requests – in the end, we had to actively make ourselves known to even pay. I would have liked to try the homemade tiramisu, but when guests are ignored like that, it gives the impression that there's no need to generate sales or even regular customers. Equally noticeable was the constant change of waiters – a certain restlessness in the service that further tarnished the overall impression. Well, I guess you can get away with that with tourists. However, I won't be visiting this restaurant a second time.

Very tasty and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

We got a seat without a reservation, the pizza was great and the service was very friendly.

The price/performance ratio is good. The service is very friendly and attentive.

Great food and a very nice cozy atmosphere. Very nice, cheerful staff. Great value for money. We'll definitely be back.

I really like it here, unfortunately you have to make a reservation, spontaneously it is rarely possible

Very friendly service. Good Italian food.

Very good food at reasonable prices. The service is also very good. Absolutely recommended.

Great restaurant. Authentic, super friendly and accommodating. Great service. We sat outside, under the heater no problem and our dog was also pampered. We had pizza and pasta and ate very, very well. Total recommendation.

Very nice service and delicious food! :) Unfortunately we didn't have a reservation and sat in the porch, which was a bit cool despite the heater. However, this had no impact on the visit, we'll be happy to come back :)

Very tasty and friendly service. We'd love to come back!

Very friendly staff. Service was attentive but not intrusive. The food was perfect. Thank you very much and I'll be happy to come back!

In search of a good Italian restaurant, our trip led us to Ciao Ciao. We really liked the covered outdoor area with the trees integrated into the roof. Overall, the order was quick and the food came quickly. The portions were "normal", the taste was below average for an Italian. Not a disaster, but not really good either. Little taste and spice, little creativity and no concept on the plate. So we skipped dessert and left after almost exactly 30 minutes.

Found the portion size of the lasagne to be too small. Otherwise there were plenty of tables, it was easy to find space.

Good service, food was served quickly. Pizza is very tasty

Simply delicious and super friendly people. Always my pleasure

Very highly recommended. Extremely friendly staff, excellent food, fresh and tasty, great value for money. My girlfriend and I are coming back on Thursday. Update: Went here again after 2 years and it was just as delicious as back then. Pictures attached, look forward to next time

Wonderfully loud, nice, familiar Italian who just always goes and has fortunately survived all adversities such as Corona, inflation, etc. so far

Classic German Italian Restaurant. Ideal for strengthening yourself after a long day at the beach. The food is consistently delicious and at a good price, but nothing particularly out of the ordinary. But you can easily visit.

Very good Italian restaurant. The homemade noodles are very tasty. Pizza as it should be. But the absolute highlight is the dessert. We had the panna cotta with pistachio cream, wow, simply amazing. The chocolate cake with the liquid center is also great. Highly recommended.

A wonderful Italian restaurant, with remarkable food and very attentive staff.

Nice Italian restaurant where the price-performance ratio is still right. Nice, friendly staff.

Super delicious! Great and friendly service.

We were at Ristorante Ciao Ciao on January 1st and January 3rd, 2025 and were immediately taken to a table both times (without a reservation) and served in a very friendly manner. The staff is very attentive and very friendly towards both children and animals, which we have observed several times. The food was brought quickly and tasted excellent. If we come to Timmendorfer Strand again, we will definitely come here again.👍🏻😋

Very tasty food, but not filling in terms of quantity, even though we usually leave something left over. The price is acceptable for the quality, but too expensive for the small quantity. Outdoor seating in the pavilion was too cool in the wind and storm despite the heater, which disrupted the ambience. Despite the justified criticism, we would recommend the restaurant because of the delicious dinner.

Very nice service. We enjoyed it very much. We will definitely visit the restaurant again this week.

Unfortunately today's visit was not pleasant. The waiter was completely stressed and annoyed. The card was quickly pressed into your hand and immediately taken away again. After asking about a gluten-free dish, a gnocchi variant was offered that didn't taste good. Too much dough and it became im Just mouth a lot of mush. Pizzas were very great, but what was overshadowed was that no one cleared away and no one was approachable about the dessert menu. We then got the menu ourselves and when I spoke to the waiter, he boldly said that exercise was good. This was not professional treatment of guests and also not hospitality. Apparently guests who you have known for a long time and where the tip is right were simply more interesting. It's a shame but we won't be coming here again because of the service

We felt very comfortable and welcome. The food was again extremely tasty and the espresso is always a pleasure. We'll definitely be back soon 😀

We all had pizza and really loved it!!!! Cross on the outside, super topped and very tasty! Super nice service, great evening. And yes, we'll be back!

Excellent food Service is partly very good, partly could be improved. We wanted to eat there on Sunday. The restaurant was well filled. It was impossible for the two female service staff to reserve a table for us later. On Wednesdays the service was significantly better. Good price-performance ratio

As always, great food and very nice service! As always, we were greeted warmly and got a table straight away, even without a reservation. We'll be back!

Very good Italian, friendly service, delicious food, gladly again!

A lovely evening with great service and good food. Employees very motivated. We haven't eaten such delicious pizza for a long time. Prices are reasonably good. We'd love to come back.

I haven't eaten such delicious Italian food in a long time. A dream. All the waitresses were super nice and accommodating despite the hustle and bustle in the restaurant. A special highlight was the chocolate cake with a liquid center as dessert

Warm welcome, relaxed atmosphere, the restaurant was beautifully decorated and the food was also very good 👍 is on the list for your next vacation

We were warmly greeted. Unfortunately, we were initially forgotten afterwards, which was probably due to the very full restaurant. We were then treated to a very friendly welcome. The wait was more than worth it! The lasagne and homemade pasta with vegetables and turkey in turmeric sauce were excellent. My companion even ordered a second portion of lasagna because it was so great. The house wine, the panna cotta and the chocolate cake were also a 10 out of 10. Gladly again at any time!

Top service: fast and super friendly. Very tasty food. Pasta on point. Carbonara tastes very good. Tiramisu perfect.

Very friendly staff, food was very tasty, all special requests were implemented.

Great service and super delicious truffle pasta. Absolutely recommended.

Eat like in Italy! Pizza is cut at the table! And special requests, such as Amaretto Spritz, were catered for!

Rarely have you received and eaten in such an unfriendly manner. I ordered a mineral water without bubbles and was given it, then the waiter was too busy to indicate this. Food arrived quickly after ordering. The pasta was too al dente and tasteless, with 5 overcooked shrimp. Even with some extra salt it was unedible. The lasagna, on the other hand, was overcooked and lacked the béchamel sauce that was described on the menu. Every table with pasta had cheese on the table. We did not see the service at the table again until we had already had our plates set aside for 10 minutes. Within 45 minutes we were gone again with a bad feeling. Staff didn't seem approachable or available for conversation, so we quickly left. I would have preferred to give minus stars, but unfortunately that is not possible. 1 star that by God's grace they had room for us. It was worth crying.

Nette Personal, Pizza, Pasta, Grazia!!

Great menu, with interesting variations, well prepared. Great, fast and friendly service.

A great restaurant. The price/performance ratio is very good. Friendly service and the food is very tasty. Definitely worth a visit.

Good food, good price, great service in a simple atmosphere. Here you can get great food at fair prices. The atmosphere was characterized by the people working quickly and friendly. You have the feeling of eating in a family restaurant.

Very tasty Italian dishes such as Vitello Tonnato. And prices are moderate for Timmendorf. Table reservations are necessary as there is a lot of demand.

Have eaten in the restaurant repeatedly. Really great service and the food deserved a straight A. Thank you for that.

Nice waiters and operators. Delicious noodles

We've been there several times now and tried different dishes. All I can say is, it's a shame it's not around the corner from where I live. Very tasty and very nice staff. We always sat in the winter garden in front of the actual building and with the tree and plants around it it is idyllic. First point of contact when we are there on vacation.

The two of us were there without a reservation and got a table straight away, even though it was quite full. The waitresses were super friendly and attentive. The food (bruschetta, pizza and gnocci) was very tasty. We felt very comfortable. Clear recommendation.

You get wonderful food here, everything very tasty and tasty. The employees are all very nice and accommodating...we would love to come back here 👌

The food is good but the service is very slow.

Food came very quickly and was very tasty. Service is attentive, friendly and quick.

I think you should and must make a reservation. We made reservations and it went great! Afterwards we saw at least 3 couples being sent away because they hadn't made a reservation. And believe me, the reservation makes sense. You get very good food here!!! I had veal liver with sage. The liver was absolutely on point, super tender and delicate sage flavor. So my request to the chef: Please, please keep it up!!!

Friendly, quick service. Food prepared and tasted great

We were at Ciao ciao today and wanted to enjoy a nice end to our stay in Timmendorf. We specifically booked a table there again because the pizzas were delicious the last time we were there! Unfortunately nothing came of it. The drinks are simply touched at the top of the glass and placed on the table! I had ordered a small bottle of water and received water (already served in a glass) that was already stale!! Unfortunately, our food (Pizza Mediterranean and Pizza Mare) was cold and totally dry! The dough is very sticky! The waiter didn't even ask if everything was good! When we complained, the service employee told us that the main thing was that they were full!!! In this house, the idea of ​​service should be reconsidered! It's a shame, only measurements apply here and no longer class as before!

This restaurant impressed us twice during our vacation! The atmosphere is warm and cozy and you immediately feel welcome. Although you can make reservations, it was no problem getting a spot spontaneously on both visits. The food is absolutely delicious - from the fresh pizzas to the homemade pasta dishes, everything is prepared with love. The service is attentive and friendly, which completes the entire experience. You can dine on site or order take-away meals. A real insider tip for anyone who wants to enjoy Italian cuisine in Travemünde!

The staff was very friendly and nice. For an Italian restaurant you just had to order spaghetti and it was delicious with the apple juice. The prices were okay. (€13 for spaghetti, €3.50 for apple juice) Definitely recommended.

We enjoyed a very nice, cozy atmosphere there...our pasta dish was extremely tasty...the staff were very nice and accommodating 👌...We would love to go back here

Were not served when out of the house, even though there was nothing going on in the restaurant

Service very good, my noodles very tasty

We got a spot straight away without a reservation. I have some intolerances, but that wasn't a problem at all. Everyone in the service team was super nice and the food was also super delicious! A big recommendation for delicious pizza with good service! :)

From A to Z extremely friendly and comtent and very tasty food. If you can't wait a moment, you should make a reservation in advance.
