Ristorante Classico Italiano Gaststätte in Dresden

Good restaurant, great pizza. I highly reccomend

Food was way too expensive. You also pay for the location to the Frauenkirche.

We had such a magical evening with you, so much friendliness, so much warmth! Such good food, great atmosphere! We would all love to come back

Great food, super friendly staff. It was a very nice evening. Many thanks to ARMEN!

Great food, nice service and the necessary peace and time. Can only be recommended 🤗

The location at the Frauenkirche is great. The food was fresh and good, not exceptional but OK. Unfortunately the service can be improved. We were not asked for another drink, even though all the glasses on the table were empty, nor were we asked for dessert or coffee after the meal. The empty main course plates sat around for ages before someone cleared them away. It's a shame actually.

Near the Frauenkirche - Central location

Where has Saxon hospitality gone? Terrace not completely full, five service staff but it took a while before someone sat down at our table to take the order. This now affects many innkeepers, but this year the team from Classico Italiano. Dear innkeepers, drivers only want a small sip of wine at lunchtime, not 0.2 liters! And if your small devices can't do that, go to the counter and make something like this possible for your guests. The competitor 50mtr further made it possible to enjoy a glass of 0.1 liter wine. Ambiance at Neumarkt was great, service wasn't good at all, we ate at Ausonia.

Customer service at an all time low. When my cloakroom card got lost under the rearranged tables, I looked for it myself, but couldn't find it at first. Instead of responding helpfully, the boss either demanded 20 euros or wanted to keep the jacket. He responded to my offer to pay the 20 euros with an EC card with unfriendly comments and complained about the ‘lost time’. I finally found the card under the table myself. Never again!!!

Very friendly and competent service. The atmosphere was very pleasant. The starters and main courses are highly recommended. I can expressly recommend the traditional carbonara. We'd love to come back.

Very tasty food and very courteous staff. Come again

A very nice, large, interesting restaurant, on several levels, with a large outdoor area, everything clean and tidy, very nice, friendly staff, there is very good food and drinks here, prepared with a lot of love, we had a very nice stay here. A worthwhile excursion destination. Right opposite the Frauenkirche. We can only recommend it.

Delicious food and nice atmosphere. Thank you 😉

The food was really okay, just a little expensive, but given the location, that shouldn't surprise anyone. The waiter was extremely annoyed (maybe he has a problem with young adults?) or at least that's how it felt. I'm definitely not going to spend my money somewhere anymore just to be hit on stupidly by someone else. There was no tip for that either

We spent our wedding anniversary here and it was a good decision. The attention and friendliness that you received as a guest here has unfortunately become rare these days. I enjoyed this very much. The food was great. Perfectly prepared and very tasty. The steak was on point, beautifully arranged plates and very attentive staff. Certainly in the higher-priced segment, but just right for a special evening. And the view of the Frauenkirche - sensational. The furnishings are very sophisticated with large mirrors and lots of photos that tell of times gone by. We felt very comfortable. Thank you.

The best truffle pasta I have tried, a restaurant worth trying 💙💙

Very nice restaurant, we ate pizzas (without a photo everyone knows what a pizza looks like) very very great base, tasted great. Very nicely located with outside dining. Attentive, nice waiters.

Been many times but have found recently that the food needs a bit more attention. Quality good but vegetables could be better and when asking for potatoes, nobody needs two pounds on their plate. Staff used to all be friendly but latterly the downstairs area are somewhat surly and it is all seems an effort.

We were very happy to be served outside here. But the egg pie wasn't tasty at all, it could be much better!

Very friendly service, food was great keep it up 👍

The only good thing about this restaurant is the location, everything else, especially when it comes to service, is a complete disaster. The men employed there have neither manners nor decency and if you criticize this you will be attacked. We work in service/catering ourselves and that didn't work at all. I'll save the rest of the words.

Central location and really good food

The restaurant can't do anything about the fabulous 😉 but the pizza is disappointing... the tomato sauce has hardly any spicy taste, baking pan-like patterns can be seen on the bottom, so the question of the "stone oven" pizza arises. Bruschetta is just a single 20cm piece of toasted brown bread with diced tomatoes. Pasta Calamarata is relatively little but tasty. Service was cool but attentive - but there was also very little going on.

Very crowded and overpriced that's my personal opinion. I think Pizza Margherita for 13€ just because it's in the place is too high.

We were served by Mr. Hayek. The service was very personable, friendly and quick. We felt very comfortable on the terrace. Upon request, our pizza was adapted to be vegetarian. Highly recommended!

We just had a drink and then left.

Es ist ein schönes Restaurant allerdings fehlte mir, was ich vor einigen Jahren erleben durfte... Die Klavier Livemusik, das wäre der fünfte Stern gewesen

Ich kann das Ristorante Classico Italiano überhaupt nicht empfehlen. Wir waren letzten Samstag um 20:30 Uhr da und wollten noch ein, zwei...Cocktails trinken und dann eventuell noch ein Dessert oder Eis essen. Den ersten Cocktail haben wir auch bekommen. Da wir aber keine Hauptspeise essen wollten, wurde uns gesagt, dass wir den Cocktail austrinken und danach den Tisch sofort wieder freigeben sollten. Man gab uns 15 Minuten. Nach 15 Minuten stand der Kellner auch tatsächlich da und wollte uns abkassieren. Als wir eine Stunde später wieder da vorbeikamen, war dieser Tisch und auch einige andere Tische frei. Ich finde es extrem arrogant und anmaßend vom Gastronom, dem Gast vorzuschreiben, was er im Restaurant bestellen muss um da verweilen zu dürfen. Wir gehen sehr oft in Restaurants, es ist aber noch nie vorgekommen, das wir wieder gehen mussten, weil wir nur Getränke bestellt haben. Zum Glück gibt es ja noch viele andere Restaurants in Dresden, die ihre Gäste besser behandeln. Mein Fazit: Nie wieder Ristorante Classico Italiano Dresden!

My girlfriend and I wanted to have a few glasses of beer with a light snack (bruschetta) this evening. After we ordered we were asked to either leave or order an entree. Of course we went. To say I was surprised is an understatement... Very uncomfortable 🤢. Good luck with your business, but we definitely won't be coming back...

Hello. I've been to this restaurant twice. Both times I was just thrilled. Wonderful food in a great location. Very friendly staff. Truly the best restaurant I've visited recently. Great, keep it up. Best regards

Extremely rude staff. Avoid at all costs.

There are many options for Italian cuisine. Highly recommended. What's nice about it is that the restaurant is located right in the center next to the Frauenkirche.

one of the best Tiramisu i had in dresden. very good view just opposite to Frauenkirche. on a nice summer day you can enjoy it till evening with the view, right company beautiful pleasant weather and the right food.

Homemade pasta with salmon and a view of the Frauenkirche. Nothing more is possible. Attentive cellars, very good mixed drinks and the food tastes fantastic. Gladly again.

Waiters were nice and attentive. But the food has nothing in common with Italian cuisine. Unfortunately, neither spaghetti carbonara nor tiramisu tasted good. The double Ramazzotti was barely a simple one when you subtract the ice cubes...very disappointing.

The waiter was very nice and spoke good English. The food was excellent! We had a delicious large stone oven home made pizza with a bottle of good Italian wine and a home made tiramisu.

There is no shortage of Italian restaurants in Dresden. You can get a good pizza or pasta everywhere. The only difference is that this restaurant has a super nice location. Opposite the Frauenkirche and with a really nice terrace. The food is OK. The problem is that it is overpriced. That likely has to do with the location, but there are plenty of places around the church that simply offer better food & cheaper drinks. 0.75l sprudel for more than 8 euro? Service is OK.

Decent food, but an absolutely awful staff. I do not recommend! We wanted to ask for the bill and signaled to the waitress several times. The last time I signaled to him, he put his head down and started laughing and pretending that he wanted to enter the restaurant. Absolutely embarrassing and embarrassing. Plus they seemed very bothered that we only speak English.

Always my pleasure. Those who reserve may have the chance of a balcony seat on the first floor and can enjoy the evening sun and sunset for a long time

It was our first time there, pizza was very tasty and we didn't have to wait long. The staff was really so friendly and accommodating, rarely experienced!😇

Ate here with 10 people. Everyone is happy, satisfied and fed up. The service is very courteous and fulfills special requests even during busy times.

Staff sometimes rude. Some people even got up at the next table and left.

The positive first...the menu came very quickly. Nothing more happened. The waiters stood bored at the front of the house and didn't even respond to someone waving. After 20 minutes we went to the pizzeria across the street.

Food is top notch, service extremely poor. Received the wrong dish twice, which of course can happen, but this was not handled very kindly. Had to wait a long time for the table to be cleared, eventually asked for the bill which also took 20 minutes. When I waved to the waiter and gestured “hello, are you coming?” the waiter asked if I could speak normally. Finally got the bill.

Great atmosphere but… I am shocked at the quality of the food. Middle class. The owner should control the quality of the food. Top location, prices at the top level. Quality of the food is middle class. I know you can do better! I am from Dresden. But that's just gastronomy for tourists. No longer for Dresden regulars!

We had to wait a long time for the recordings. The beer was warm and the food was cold, very small and expensive. Of course there is a great atmosphere right next to the Frauenkirche. Was ok but 1x is enough.

It's been a long time since I've been visiting Dresden and I've been to this restaurant several times. But this time it was unfortunately very bad and way too overpriced. The location is great, it's really nice to sit here. But, but, but! Waiters would rather chat than serve guests. The food-Penne all' Arrabbiata pasta, the simplest kind without anything, pure tomato sauce, €16.50, 0.7 liter Pellegrino €8.50, that's a complete rip off. If at least the quality had been right, the pasta was unfortunately still sauced stretched with water. Even when the waiter mentioned the shortcomings, there was no apology. But apparently the restaurant is only tailored to tourists, who come once and then never again. It's a shame, as a former Dresden resident I find this very sad, as I really enjoyed eating there when I visited again. Unfortunately not anymore. Just keep it up!

A little expensive at first glance... But only at first glance. Absolutely amazing food. Cutting pizza with scissors is a great gimmick in a great restaurant!!!

Nice ambience. Nice waiters. Two stars deducted for the portions that were much too small. I come to you to get full and not to be hungry after eating pasta! Almost no pasta under 18€, price and portion not justified.

Gestern wunderbar gegessen. Das Ambiente war einfach traumhaft. 🥰 Schnelle und sehr freundliche Bedienung. Danke wir kommen gerne wieder. Die Pfeffersoße war auch super lecker 😋 aber vergessen zu fotografieren.😄😘

The one star is for the location. Rude to the point of not being possible anymore. The food isn't great either, no better than in a company canteen. Not recommendable. There are much better options for eating and drinking in the surrounding area!

Everything tasted okay, everything happened quickly. The ambience is classic, unchic promenade seating. Unfortunately the portions are very sparse. We had the burrata and bruschetta for a total of €21, the bruschetta was a slice of bread with tomatoes 🍅.

Place to be! Little getaway at home with the best food and service!

Everything about this place was fantastic. The food was delicious and the service was friendly and helpful. All with a great view across neumarkt. We went back again on our stay and each time was wonderful.

Awesome restaurant with great food, service, and amazing ambiance on the platz. You will love it here! Best fish I ever had. Food variety is incredible too.

The food was very good, but the service not so much, the employees don't seem to like their work. And in a restaurant that claims to be Italian, charging for bread, it seemed strange to me.

Rude waiter. Do not eat here if you are American.

Years ago, Classico Italiano was our favorite restaurant. The singer/manager greeted everyone personally, he always made a few jokes, he sang (especially for the ladies, of course) and everything was peppered with Italian charm and typical Italian warmth. The young waiters (some Italians themselves) were friendly and just the few Italian words like Buonasera, Prego, Arrivederci and the singer's longing songs gave you the feeling of "being in Italy for a short time" in the middle of Dresden. Today we were there again after a long time. I no longer felt anything about “Italy”. It was quite a mass dispatch. The waiters still speak accents today, just not Italian :-( But, hey, that was part of the magic. The appetizers were just as good as before, but that was the only thing. The pizza (with seafood) was extremely "sparingly" topped (not to say "absolutely stingy"); our dear singer was there, but didn't sing a single song. It looked "worn out" (which is not surprising after so many years) and you no longer had the feeling of being hosted by a team of Italians. But guys, that's why I'm going to the Italian restaurant! Otherwise I can go to any pizzeria. The pizza and beer taste the same there. This restaurant has "grown"... lots of tables on the street, plus the Longue (PS: the boss personally took care of the Longue guests.), but the charm for us as normal guests is gone. I'll have to find another Italian so I can "feel on vacation" on a cozy evening.

Too expensive for the service provided, the bruscetta, well a slice of bread with tomatoes, is really poor for the price, the lasagne is overcooked and has no taste and the portion is quite meager for the price. Probably along the lines of, you won't see people again anyway.

Great experience - stopped off in Dresden on our way to Prague craving Italian. Food was beautiful and service was incredible. Thank you

We were in Dresden again today and were able to enjoy a lovely evening in this restaurant. Today we just enjoyed the drinks……Super tasty from the champagne to the cocktail……the service was also super nice and made good recommendations about the drinks. We'd love to come back.

We were in Dresden for three evenings and actually wanted to visit different restaurants. Luckily the first restaurant was this wonderful Italian restaurant at the Frauenkirche. It was so delicious and the service was so excellent that we decided to spend all evenings here. And it was the right decision. On the last evening we ate the fantastic truffle pasta and were spoiled not only by the culinary delights but also by the extremely attentive, polite and competent service. All the service staff are great. Our special thanks go to Mahmoud Hayek, who rounded everything off perfectly. Little insider to Mahmoud: chilled Bardollino really tastes better. Kind regards and a thousand thanks to the team. If we visit Dresden again, we would love to come and eat with you again. Gabi and Thomas

Suveren mat og veldig bra service av Kathlyn. Hadde classic spagetti carbonara som smakte sjeldenr godt. Også profiteroles desserten var fortreffelig.

Entering the Italian restaurant and not finding any Italian, very sad! Asking for a quick coffee at the counter and not being able to have it!!!!! Very sad !!!! But what Italian are you?

Excellent food, great service Yamen was very accommodating. The carbonara is a dream. Pizza great. The place right next to the Frauenkirche is mega.

Card payment from 20€… impudence

Nach kurzem Schock der tellergröse bekam ich die beste carbonara meines Lebens unser keiner Yamen und bajram waren so zuvorkommend und freundlich mega kann ich nur empfehlen

Super tasty, authentic food that I only know from Italy. The chef personally comes to the table and inquires and advises the guests, the boss also likes to sing accompanied by the piano and the service staff is always attentive and friendly.

Very chic restaurant 😊👍🏻 would love to come back

We had a delicious meal, with a great view right on the square. The staff was also very friendly and attentive 👌🏼

Food was good. A classic Italian restaurant. Since it is in the square, you can dine in a nice atmosphere.

Super Italian? 🤔 Is that supposed to be an Italian? Open a restaurant like this in Italy and see. In Italy this one will Food not cooked.!

Location, location, location and the food was also tasty, only the bruschetta took some getting used to. But I had my favorite wine in the champagne bar 🤤

Great location and really good food. We weren’t able to communicate very well besides in English but we got by ok. I would recommend this place if you want Italian.

The food was very good. The staff super friendly!

This is the most terrible place in this beautiful place. Service slow, no friendliness. The food was disgusting, the pasta was raw.

Completely overwhelmed, arrogant and rude staff, level like in the train station canteen. I was there twice, the first and the last time.

We liked everything! Gorgeous location! Fast, tasty, cultural, attentive!!!!

Price performance was not good. I received a pasta dish for €18 that was about two handfuls in size. I wasn't full. A pity.

A great evening with friends. Food was very tasty and the service was just great. We were there with dogs and they got food too! Super sweet! I couldn't think of anything bad about the evening, so 5 stars!🥰

Probably the best thing about this restaurant is the location. I enjoyed my vacation in Dresden for 3 evenings on the balcony with the fantastic view of the Frauenkirche. The food was very tasty. And the staff were so sweet, nice and friendly that you felt very comfortable. On my next trip to Dresden I will definitely eat there again.

Very tasty and good place next to the Frauenkirche 👍🏼

Delicious. Great location. We even had live music included.

Worst Italian restaurant we've ever been to...and at the same time the most expensive. The "cocktail" for 8 euros consisted of a glass of sparkling wine with a bit of peach syrup. The starter was ok, but also too expensive for the portion and the pizza bread we ordered was a dry, fake impudence. We ordered 2 pizzas, which we received after multiple requests after over an hour. The pizza was bone dry, tasteless and had the chef's hair on it...the service was simply non-existent...slow, unfriendly and insulted when there was no tip. We were here twice: the first and last time. It's a shame about the great location.

The taste of the food was okay, but we had to wait about 90 minutes for our food, which was only brought after we asked several times.

You clearly pay for the location, but the food was delicious so far. If you value the ambience, you've come to the right place.

Best bruscetta ever. No.33 ; ) With brown bread + buffalo mozzarella. Plus a great view of the Frauenkirche. And very attentive service team. Absolutely recommended!!

I can definitely recommend it! Tasty, fast and everyone is super friendly 👍🏼 Looks good as well as a nice view of the Frauenkirche.

The Italian restaurant with its diverse offering is a very good alternative to the "home-style" dining environment in the cultural city of Dresden, which is well worth seeing. The food is very tasty and the service is very attentive and friendly.

Great location under the shadow of the great Basilica of Our Lady of Dresden-Frauenkirche. We came here for Easter Lunch 2024. Food was classic Italian Fare. We had the grilled Octopus and Grilled Branzino with a bottle of white wine and a macaron ice cream dessert with some grappa as digestifs. Everything was fresh and well prepared. Price was reasonable. Service was fantastic.

Consistently solid restaurant in a good location. Pleasantly designed inside, the food was tasty if not excellent. The prices for an Italian correspond to the location. There is little reason for locals to go to the restaurant, but for tourists it is definitely a good idea.

Direct location with a view of the Liebfrauenkirche, great ambience, stylish restaurant with live music. Very tasty pizza in the upper price segment, appropriate given the location. However, the outdoor service still has real potential for expansion: - Only one ticket for three people. - Drinks placed on the table without being assigned to the guest, to be assigned and poured yourself. - There was no demand for food. - Service was very busy with itself and just scurried past and couldn't be contacted for at least 10 minutes to ask for an invoice, even though our place was directly at the entrance door on the outside area. Therefore overall not a full score. We'll try again...

Awesome food. Great outdoor and indoor ambience

A very nice restaurant, with delicious Italian dishes. The musical accompaniment makes you feel like you are in Italy. The view directly onto the Frauenkirche and the Neumarkt is brilliant. Always worth a visit. Thanks.

Service absolutely unfriendly. Ambiance is nice, right next to the Frauenkirche.

What can I say...if there were 10 stars to give, I would give 10! Food absolutely top 👍🏻 Service at it's best...simply great! We were with a dog..and you shouldn't believe it: the waiter came immediately with water AND a cake plate with cooked ham and vegetables/salad..unseasoned..and asked if our little one could have it..of course free of charge...we still have something like that never experienced it...great!

This has nothing to do with Italian cuisine, it's just a trap. I have never eaten such bad spaghetti allo scoglio in Dresden (didn't eat it back), overcooked pasta, 30g frozen seafood maximum, tomatoes sause even with canned acid, no love for cooking, disgusting. The waiter was really angry when we complained and left the food behind. We just wanted to get out of this place. I paid the full price, I wanted that too, but I said my opinion that it was bad with you. And we don't need to write about hygiene. Don't be ashamed?????????

This was the best pizza i’ve had. the service was amazing and everything came out very quickly

Good Italian food but nothing special. A bit expensive, which is probably due to the great location. The staff was friendly.

Vitello Tonnato was excellent, the pasta with truffle for 2 was very, very good, good service and a simple Chianti
