Ristorante Fontana in Berlin

So far we have always been happy here. However, there was a fiasco on our literal last visit here. We had booked a table there for a party on the terrace long in advance for a festive occasion. When we arrived, however, there were long waiting times and a hectic atmosphere broke out because our table was simply given to other guests who had spontaneously increased their size. Instead of our original table, we had to sit at tables that had been spontaneously put together. For us and our guests, some of whom had come specifically, it was a failed lunch and we as hosts did not leave a good impression. How the restaurant treated its guests in this case is absolutely unacceptable. The child-friendliness of some waiters is also questionable.

Had a super pleasant after-show party after the wedding, delicious food and a nice time together! Always happy

Such an amazing place! The restaurant has a special room where you can celebrate in a large group and select music. My friend celebrated her civil wedding here and we were all blown away. A special kind of service and warm friendliness... always happy

Super delicious food and nice service.

Very tasty food in a nice atmosphere and always good-humoured service. Top address in Zehlendorf

Very nice Italian, nice ambience, great service. The food was exceptionally good, slightly more expensive and suitable for special occasions.

It was a pleasure to be able to celebrate an 80th birthday with a larger group. The support, food and service were very good. The restaurant is fully recommended if you want to eat Italian and not just pizza.

Great atmosphere, delicious food and very nice waiters!

A very beautiful evening, wonderful scallops, excellent fish, finely cooked, and a sabaionne to die for. A good cozy atmosphere even with a full room. Thanks again to all of you and see you soon.

Very tasty food and excellent service in an absolutely feel-good atmosphere. The staff is attentive and courteous. We all felt comfortable and would love to come back.

The service was really excellent, you felt very comfortable.

After several regular visits to the restaurant at La Fontana, which were always very nice, we now held a big celebration there. The preliminary discussion was competent, the food was very good - and above all the service was very professional and very personable at the same time. This impression was shared by all guests. The Fontana is a wonderful restaurant to have a good meal in a friendly atmosphere.

UPDATE: The portions of the truffle pasta have been drastically reduced, but the price has been increased significantly. Of course inflation goes back and forth, but if I can't even get enough anymore because they're so small, that's worrying. Everything else still remained the same. Great restaurant with an upscale ambience, pleasant atmosphere and entrance suitable for disabled people. The staff is always nice and accommodating, and reservations are also possible without any problems. The quality of the food is very good and has remained the same over the years. The size of the dishes is very good.

Very good food at a birthday party, excellent wine. Highly recommended.

Great store. The staff is super friendly! The food is simply incredibly delicious! Really stylishly decorated store ☺️

As always, it was very, very nice. People really enjoy coming here. The ambience is excellent as is the food! Top!

Always my pleasure. Warm atmosphere. Thank you! 😊😘

Great quality of the food, the skin of the pike perch is fried until crispy, the vegetables are on point and very well seasoned, the creme brulee is very tasty. Attentive service, nice ambience inside and out.

We can highly recommend the Fontana restaurant. Excellent cuisine, friendly team, good service and a very nice atmosphere. For example: white tablecloths, cloth napkins, flowers, and attractive decorations. We'd love to come back.

Very nice service!! I would love to come here more often.

Very authentic cuisine and passionate staff 🫶🏻

I had very tasty pasta with truffle parmesan sauce, the service is very warm and the restaurant has a very cozy atmosphere!

Das essen war sehr lecker beste pizzaria in berlin man kann nix falsches machen und das Dessert war top 🤤😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋

It was great again! Great food and perfect service.

Very nice people and delicious food

Unfortunately, it sucks. Expecting a nice evening, you make a reservation for seven people and get a table for 6. You spend the whole evening chasing after the inattentive waiters. Cutlery is missing, glasses are missing...food is a disaster, pasta of the day with seafood that has been cooked to death...desserts don't include ice cream for the children and it takes 30 minutes and 5 requests for it to be delivered. It's a similar game with the bill, only the head waiter then becomes rude. Instead of apologizing for waiting times and inattention, he blames us, the guest...once and never again

Very dignified restaurant, nice to sit outside, the service was very attentive and friendly. I only ordered pizza 🍕 🍕 but it tasted great

Below average Kosovo Albanian with embarrassing accent! The salads drowned in balsamic sunflower oil have nothing to do with Italian cuisine, nor does the tough, inferior meat on them. This used to be a great Greek restaurant.

Schöner Sitzplatz unter der Markise, gute Stühle, saubere Tischdecke: toll Focaccia, Pulco, Rinderfilet, gut, wenn auch schwach gewürzt. Bemerkenswerte Gemüsebeilage, angenehm frisch Sehr gute Bedienung, bis auf die schreienden Kinder am Nachbartisch alles sehr gut

Delicious food and nice service, gladly again!

I had a delicious meal there and it was lovely to sit outside in the nice weather

Very good and quiet location in Berlin. The owners and staff are extremely hospitable and funny, so you can spend a pleasant time in peace with friends or family.

We have been living in Zehlendorf Süd for a good 10 years and the Fontana has always been our place to go. Recently (specifically the last 3 times) we have been very unpleasantly pestered upon arrival with the offer of aperitifs and water bottles that we will no longer come. We don't want to order water bottles or an aperitif! Whenever we politely declined with thanks, we were subsequently served less friendly and felt like we were left behind. I don't care whether the waitress gets a bonus on drinks or whether the margin on the water is high. That's not the way for me. If I order water for two people, I don't want the waitress to respond with "I'll bring a bottle of water." It's nice when things are offered, but anyone who asks has to be able to live with the answer: Thank you, NO water bottle and NO, we don't want Prosecco or aperitif. Not this time and not after. If we want that, we say so. PLEASE, dear Fontana team, refrain from this intrusive drink sale.

What a great Italian! I was there during the week and was lucky to get a nice spot on the terrace. Wow, what a beautiful terrace! There was such delicious linguini with shrimps and a hearty pizza for my companion. This won't be the last time. Really good cuisine, bravo. The restaurant is really very nice, large and tastefully decorated; This extends to the sanitary facilities. I really like it when everything is always nice and clean. There is also a separate lounge for special occasions. I really want to try it out, it looks really great. Well done! Thank you very much.

For us an absolute feel-good place - delicious food and excellent service. Again and again.

The terrace is new. The waiters are adorable. The food was great.

Wir haben einen sehr schönen Abend draußen verbracht. Gepflegte Atmosphäre, super freundliche Bedienung, sehr leckeres Essen (ich habe die Tagesempfehlung genommen, Schwerfisch), leckerer Wein (Gavi di Gavi). Wir haben uns extrem wohl gefühlt. Wir kommen von auswärts. Ansonsten würde das unser Stammrestaurant werden!

Super delicious food and nice staff :)

Super delicious food! Great service! Gladly again 🙏🏼

Great Italian restaurant in Zehlendorf (Southwest), Berlin.

During our spontaneous visit we were able to experience an excellent tuna steak, good wine and friendly service.

Best restaurant in all of Berlin, the best pasta, everything is of the finest quality, the service is great, the ambience is absolutely amazing, I'm thrilled with everything, so highly recommended, super, really great

The best Italian restaurant in the area!!!

We waited about 40 minutes for the starter. The food came after 1h10min. Meat was delicious and so was the wine. Pasta wasn't cooked properly. We paid 26.50 for a small steak and broccoli.

Very pleasant atmosphere and friendly service, highly recommended

Good food and good service! Can highly recommend the salad with the beef fillet tips. The meat was super tender. I'd love to come back.

Very tasty food. I can only recommend

We celebrated a wedding celebration with you today at Ristorante Fontana. Thank you for the excellent and very friendly service. The food was really delicious and the special requests were accepted without any problems. All in all a really nice restaurant - the separate room we rented was really nicely prepared and everything worked out great. Thanks for the service - see you soon.

Very good! Parking lots available. Winter garden and cozy outdoor area when the weather is nice. Very well-kept restaurant and great, attentive staff starting from the boss. You just feel comfortable!!! The food is great, it tastes and looks great. Keep it up!

Had a wedding reception here and rented an extra room and were thrilled by the friendliness of the staff. They decorated beautifully and provided us with the best Italian delicacies. Great starter platter with vitello tornato, freshly grilled vegetables, ruccula and much more. Excellent food, authentic, freshly prepared and there was also a selection of seasonal dishes. The staff is very helpful, friendly and humorous. We'll definitely come back :)

We held a wedding reception here. The restaurant provided us with a separate room. The atmosphere here was very pleasant. The food was also rock solid and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. We felt extremely comfortable here and were able to enjoy the celebration to the fullest! We can definitely recommend the Fontana!

Ein toller Italiener zu vernünftigen Preisen . Super nettes Personal , schneller Service , gutes Preis Leistungsverhöltnis , sehr schmackhaftes Essen Im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen Italiener hat dieser die Preise nach Corona nicht angezogen - das ist sehr sympathisch

really nice Italian restaurant with super nice staff, very good price-performance ratio, hasn't become more expensive after the corona crisis, very tasty food, definitely recommended!!!

Big family birthday. No matter whether pasta, pizza, salad, fish or meat. All dishes were excellent. Super Service. We'd love to come back.

Very tasty food! Good selection and great service in a nice environment. Easy to reach by public transport. For your birthday there will be sparklers and singing :) We will be back definitely!

Very good food. Service with Italian charm. Beautiful terrace on Sderotplatz with a fairytale fountain.

Super friendly and courteous service! Holiday feeling in the middle of Berlin! Pizza and saltimbocca were very tasty, free starter and grappa as an aperitif were included!

A perfect evening with perfect hospitality - always recommended! Definitely go. Kind regards to the great hospitality.

Attentive, fast service, the food was very tasty (spaghetti with asparagus). Bread and oil in advance. Would have liked a little more asparagus; but of course it is also expensive. Overall, it's a bit expensive. Nice, big terrace. Card payment possible; Unfortunately, tips are only possible in cash.

Very nice atmosphere, very friendly and perfect service👌🏼Food is highly recommended. The outside area is also cozy and beautiful. There are also enough parking spaces. Always happy to come back.

Wonderful service. Mega delicious. Great waiters. We love it!

Very good food and friendly service that always smiles and entertains you💙

One of the best restaurants I've ever been to! Vegetarian food is possible without any problems! Very good service! Kid friendly! And honestly: the best pizza (Buffala) in 20 years!!!!! Would come back any time!

Perfect food, very clean, very friendly service

Great location for high demands.

The food was absolutely great, the service was perfect and the atmosphere was more than cozy. Our new favorite Italian 👌🏽

We celebrated a birthday in the restaurant, we felt very comfortable, the food was delicious and the staff was very friendly, what more could you want

Thank you very much, we really enjoyed it

Great restaurant, great food, always a pleasure. Very clean and hospitable.

It was a pleasant atmosphere. Friendly and attentive staff. The food was 😋 delicious.

Delicious. Super Service. We always enjoy coming back with the whole family! ❤️❤️❤️

Fontana is the place to be. Interior of the location is top, service is professional and friendly. We had pizza, pasta and beverages ( cocktails ) we enjoyed the night and we celebrate with the staff my friend's BD. Thank you .

As always, very good. Only recommended!!

Wir sind heute ganz spontan vorbei gekommen. Wir wurden sehr herzlich in Empfang genommen. Essen, Getränke und Ambiente waren super 🥰 die Kellner waren alle samt sehr lieb, nett und zuvorkommend. Auch kleine Gespräche mit den Kellner und den Chefs hat uns sehr gefallen. Wir kommen wieder 😊 bleibt bitte so wie ihr seid …. liebe Grüße aus Hennigsdorf und Velten

Der Laden ist ein Totalausfall! Das Ambiente mehr als gewöhnungsbedürftig, der Service unaufmerksam und arrogant, die 'getrüffelte' Kartoffelsuppe, die nach einer Stunde Wartezeit ankam, schmeckte genau so stark nach Mehl, wie das Brot und die Calamaretti waren zu lange gebraten und in einer Art Balsamicoirgendwas ertränkt. Absolut nicht zu empfehlen!

Sehr leckerer Italiener mit sehr authentischem und gehobenen Ambiente.

So willkommen geheißen habe ich selten erlebt. Ich habe mich sofort wohlgefühlt. Einfach schön. So nette umsichtige Bedienung! Und das Essen super. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

Ich bin hier spontan abends mit Freunden eingekehrt. Wir haben zu dritt einen Platz bekommen und wurden freundlich begrüßt. Die Pizza war super, die Bedienung war freundlich und das Ambiente vor Ort ist sehr angenehm und gemütlich. Daher alles in allem ein guter Abend in einem guten Restaurant.

Nothing in the menu was available and the waiter replaced it for what he think is the same the wine the starter even the main dish and i think i won’t come back again

Gekonnte italienische Küche mit Pfiff, die Atmosphäre ist so wie sie in einem italienischen Restaurant sein soll und das Personal ist zuvorkommend und freundlich. So geht italienisch!

War das 2 mal dort einfach Spitze ,👍👍👍das Essen ,der Service ,und die Atmosphäre 😁 einfach toll 👌

Es war ein sehr schöner Nachmittag. Der Service,so wie das Essen, waren hervorragend.

Ich lebe in der Nachbarschaft vom Fontana und bin dort sehr gerne mit Freunden oder der Familie. Freundlicher Service und leckeres Essen

Exzellent Danke schön für alles

Wir haben einen runden Geburtstag mit 15 Personen in einem hübschen separaten Raum an einem wunderschön gedeckten Tisch gefeiert. Das Menü bestand aus drei Gängen. Alle Gänge waren lecker und dekorativ angerichtet. Der Wein war gut. Das Personal war aufmerksam und sehr freundlich. Wir können das Ristorante Fontana sehr empfehlen!

Ein tolles Restaurant, mit sehr freundlicher Bedienung, schöner Atmosphäre und eher gehobener Küche. Ein kleines Manko ist der Weg zum WC. Dieser schlängelt sich als schmale Wendeltreppe nach unten. Aber es gibt auch ein ebenerdiges Behinderten WC, dass man sicherlich auch nutzen dürfte, wenn man sich auf der Treppe nicht so wohl fühlt.

Wunderbares Essen, angenehme Atmosphäre, freundliches Personal . Wir waren sehr zufrieden und kommen bald wieder mit Freunden.

Ist zu empfehlen. Man fühlt sich wohl und ob Pizza oder Pastar , es schmeckt gut. Die Portionen sind ausreichend und die Preise angemessen im leicht gehobenen Segment. Es ist auch Rollstuhl gerecht.

Alles gut, lässt keine Wünsche offen.

Schönes Lokal, die Tische sind nicht zu eng gestellt, es gibt feine Tischdecken, so dass die Akustik auch dann noch gut ist, wenn es voll ist. Angenehmes, gedämpftes Licht. Sehr freundlicher Service, man wird auch von echten Italienern bedient, was ja nicht selbstverständlich ist. Die Karte ist etwas ausgedünnt worden, was aber normalerweise für frische Qualität spricht. Ich mag die Pizza und Pasta, der frische Fisch ist auch gut, es ist natürlich kein Sternelokal, aber ein schönes, solides Restaurant in der Zehlendorfer Nachbarschaft. Im Sommer sitzt man draußen sehr schön.
