Ristorante Pizzeria Garda in Berlin

Delicious food, excellent service, and a great location. The staff are so friendly and make you feel very welcome - if we weren’t so full we would have devoured some dessert as it looked incredible. Highly recommend :)

Pizza Palermo, about 15 euros: Well, maybe this dish was "authentic", and I have no idea what you get when you order pizza in Sicily. For my wife and I, the pizza was very disappointing: within a thick bead of dough, a very, very thin dough, which was also sparingly topped. The dough should probably be thin, but you could probably see through it. And as a result, this thin center of dough on the plate, which was probably not preheated, got cold pretty quickly.

Fantastic food, delicious pizza and pasta.

Very nice restaurant. Excellent food. I recomend .

A nice selection of food, delicious pasta, attentive service and a nice ambience. Highly recommended!

Stopped in to warm up after an autumn walk. Nice atmosphere, delicious pizza, good friendly service. We would love to come back here.

We went to this restaurant yesterday afternoon to have something to eat. We ordered carpaccio and a tuna pizza. The carpaccio was OK, but I wasn't happy with the pizza dough; the dough was soft and not tasty. The location of the restaurant is nice and the place was clean. However, I have to say that the employees seemed very uninterested. Although the restaurant was empty, the service could have been better.

amazing food and service. grazie!

Bruschetta was very delicious, bread and ingredients were very fresh. I chose salami as pizza, but I was not satisfied with the dough. Lasagna was also pretty runny, I've had better ones, but the atmosphere was very cute.

Good italian restaurant, serving tasty authentic food and good wines at a fair price.

Found it by chance, great service and surprisingly delicious pizza with a fluffy edge.

Wow wow wow Were visiting Berlin and were looking for a pasta restaurant. As if it were fate, we came to Pizzaria Garda. An absolute experience from reception to payment! Every waiter is personable, humorous and incredibly friendly! The pasta, the tastiest thing I have ever eaten in my life!!! During the 10 minutes while I was eating, I can't count on eight hands how many times I said "wow"! I had a Pinot Grigio with it, a unique taste experience! The waiting time was incredibly surprisingly short! The drinks arrived about 4 minutes later and the food arrived relatively shortly afterwards. So you definitely won't stay hungry for long! The Tagliolini Garda, an absolute masterpiece Just like the Pizza Funghi! A little more hidden, but both in front of the restaurant and inside, an absolute oasis of well-being. Especially the fairy lights in the yard immediately give you a super safe and cozy feeling! The restaurant makes you feel like you are actually in a beautiful side street in Italy. On the whole, if it weren't almost 400km away from home I would be an absolute permanent guest! So an ABSOLUTE insider tip for a wonderful Italian experience!!!! An absolute recommendation with heart and soul!

Pizza frutti di mare is very good. Good house wine. A private atmosphere. Italian.

We were guests as part of a BPA trip. I liked the ambience and the friendly welcome. Unfortunately, the food didn't convince me because it didn't suit my taste. There was penne in a bland vegetable sauce. All the meat eaters in the group were hoping for a nice bolognese or lasagne and were bitterly disappointed. The dessert wasn't any better either. A scoop of vanilla ice cream without anything, served in a cheap plastic cup. Sorry Team Garda, unfortunately that was nothing. The stars are for the still very nice service.

Cozy in the wintertime inside, good outdoor atmosphere in the summer - perfect for an aperol spritz and some good authentic Italian food

Beautifully located in a leafy courtyard, very, very tasty pizza and friendly staff. Clear recommendation!

Difficult path, great restaurant! We were very surprised to spontaneously get a table. The pizza was incredibly tasty and very classic. You would have loved to eat more of them. Really highly recommended! The service was very present, you could have passed on your concerns directly. The only unfortunate thing is the way there. As a village tramp, the city is already "exciting" but we initially went up and down the street several times because we couldn't find the entrance to the inner courtyard. Unfortunately, Google Maps didn't even begin to help us except for the tram stop. Ultimately we had to call the restaurant again and ask for directions because an oncoming police officer didn't want to answer our stupid question. The gentleman from the restaurant explained it to us very well, we finally arrived and were pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere around the restaurant. Everything is very comfortable, from now on you know where to go

Abundant dishes, very friendly management, and also professional advice

Super delicious food and great ambience. :-)

Das Garda ist ein kleines, eher familiäres Restaurant, tatsächlich ist die Lage in den Heckmannhöfen ausgesprochen nett. Essen und Service waren gut, aber nicht herausragend. Mittlerweile haben die Preise in Berlin Mitte ganz schön angezogen, sind hier gerade noch okay.

The two of us spontaneously got a table. We were greeted and served in a very nice and friendly manner. The pizzas were delicious, the dough was nice and fluffy and the base was tender. Plus the location in the backyard. We felt very comfortable!

Amazing! The place is cozy, the hospitality and service were awesome. The food was amazing.

Classic Italian with excellent service.

Every time I visit Berlin I come here to eat. Very tasty, nice hospitality. Very nicely located in the inner courtyard, quiet location even if you sit outside. I can recommend

Pizza over pasta. Dough was very nice and their people were kind

The pizza was very tasty and the service was super good. There is a nice atmosphere. You can even order a cappuccino here after 10:00.

If you don't have a reservation, you'll end up standing there waiting for a while. Yes ok pizza was very tasty. But the lasagne is more for those with a small appetite. You won't get full.

Located by the river in Mitte, Berlin. The ambiance is nice, the service staff is friendly. We only found the dough of the pizza we ate to be thick.

Prachtig verborgen gelegen in Heckman Höfe heb ik heerlijk gegeten in een goede sfeer, met humoristische bediening! Zelfs op de dag van de eenheid Was het geen probleem dat ik alleen een tafel bezet hield! Complimenten!!!!

A little gem in an unlikely place. Very good down-to-earth Italian food at fair prices, warm service and professional management. Even as a group (we had reserved for 16 people) we received the entire à la carte selection without any problems, which is not a given. Gluten-free was also possible. Plus the cozy location in the Heckmann-Höfe. We'll be back...

Came here for dinner, super fast service and great food. The bruschetta was delicious, Mozzarella very fresh but the pasta & pizza capped this off. Really puffy crust + generous portion

We had a very good dinner and enjoyed the good atmosphere. We will return for sure.

Italian food, not outstanding, they charged me €3.50 for a glass of ordinary tap water. His explanations were inappropriate, it seemed very bad to me, it seemed like theft.

Very good service. Price performance very good

Typically Italian with excellent cuisine and very good service. The saltimbocca was extremely good. Highly recommended…! Any time.

We ordered two lasagne. The first one was hot at the beginning and shortly afterwards completely cold as if frozen. The other lasagne was completely cold. It tasted worse than frozen lasagna. We both felt sick afterwards. 1 time and never again.

We really liked the pizza, especially the dough was very tasty. The Lassange was also good, but as is often the case in a restaurant, it was very well cooked. Tiramisu is always good, but we missed the taste of coffee. The service was really good and, despite the store being full, quite quick and attentive. It's a shame that it's so cool outside in the evening, because it looks very cozy there.

Good service. Good location. Good environment

Summary: I am torn between 3 and 4 stars opting for the 3 as the dishes were generally good but there was an element lacking in every dish; I would actually go again for a fairly price easy and child friendly dinner with very friendly service and beautiful seating outside in the courtyard Best dish (- negative / = ok / + positive): = pizza with salsiccia and porcini: delicious taste, but the pizza was not crunchy and a bit soggy and that’s a key reason to eat pizza out and not at home because it always arrives soggy; I assume the likely frozen porcini mushrooms lost too much water - a small issue easily ameliorated Dishes: = spaghetti with porcini and shrimps: ok taste but not well-seasoned so I had to add salt; quality of porcini mushrooms again mediocre, there are better frozen options available, the same goes for the quality of the small shrimp - salad: the sauce is not good but not bad, but definitely too sweet and the presentation is not appealing to the eye with the brown sauce and the silly “decoration” with crema di aceto di Balsamico, I think it just looks cheap Service: + very friendly and fast and attentive - great job! Price: + fair price for value Atmosphere: + beautiful outside seating in a traditional Berlin Innenhof (interior courtyard) + very child friendly: your kids can run around in the courtyard while your eating

Complete jerk. Noooooooot do it

There was spontaneously a place for two outside on Saturday evening. Nice, quiet atmosphere. Polite, courteous and quick service. The food didn't take long to arrive. Sufficient, tasty portions, typically Italian delicious and the aperitif as it should be. Due to the central tourist area, we had a nice American conversation with the nearby table next door  There is no doubt that a reservation is guaranteed. We recommend the restaurant and will come back!

Great Italian restaurant, delicious food, very nice location.

Cozy, beautiful and small pizzeria with a great terrace. Super great pizza, light beer and nice service.

Outstanding pizza and beautiful spot

It's generally nice on the terrace. The chairs don't have any cushions and so it's not quite as comfortable. The service is good, waiters often ask if everything is okay. The food is good, the pizza dough is very fluffy. The salad was impressed by its taste and less by its appearance. Basically there was nothing to complain about. Certainly a down-to-earth option for those not looking for culinary experimentation. Personally, I wouldn't go again, it didn't blow me away. For the price, the noodles were very close to home cooked.

Had enjoyable pizza here on Sunday lunchtime

Super delicious thin pizza with crispy edges and fresh sausage and forest mushrooms, and and and. Hidden in a Berlin passage. Staff super friendly and a nice terrace.

Danger! Unfriendly and disrespectful waiters! After making a reservation, we were in the restaurant as a couple with our 20-month-old child! We hadn't been sitting there for 2 minutes when the waiter greeted us unfriendly and shook his head because our daughter had moved a piece of cutlery at the table opposite us! When we then asked for a high chair, the response was unfriendly. The high chair was brought to us and then we were lectured in public by this extremely unfriendly waiter in his mid-50s about how we should treat a child, with a statement like: it hurts my heart to see how you treat your child! At this point we had only been in the restaurant for 3-4 minutes and so we can also say as parents that we don't like it when strangers who still have to earn a living by working as waiters interfere with our upbringing Interfere with your child! We then got up and left! I have a management position at a bank in Berlin and we have often had our meetings in this restaurant, which we will definitely not do again and we are also annoyed by the rude behavior of the waiters (we noticed this again and again during our visits to this restaurant ) communicate that it's better not to go there! It's an outrage to behave like this!

Salami pizza and negronis were very very gooood

We enjoyed wonderful Italian food (Pizza Margharita, Penne Amatriciana, Tagliatelle with porcini mushrooms...). Nice service. And the restaurant with the sun coming in looked like a small village in Italy. We were all enchanted by this oasis.

Beautiful place to sit in nestled in Heckmam Hoff with amazing food and friendly service. Finished off with some lemoncello 👌🏻

I can highly recommend this restaurant. The green inner courtyard is an oasis of calm to linger. The food, service and ambience are very great and inviting. We would love to come back. If you are visiting in the evenings with more than 2 people, I would recommend making a reservation.

Very rude staff. For some reason, they do not allow to order just drinks, because “we are a restaurant”. Go somewhere else

The server spoke good English and had great sense, which was really nice. And the food was really delicious too.

Just a typical Italian restaurant in a beautiful green courtyard. It's worth it and the red wine 🍷 Primitivo is an enjoyable recommendation. Pizza is super delicious!!! Thanks to the nice team ❤️‍🔥I come back, ciao tiamo 😘

Amazing! The hospitality and service were just wonderful. While the place was crowded and full, I asked for a table for one. Within a few minutes, they brought a table from somewhere, a chair and a menu, and created an extra spot just for me. It was perfect to dine there in the pretty garden and the food was delicious. Very thankful for the staff and their hospitality!

Delicious food in a very attractive place

Good pizza. However tiramisu was a deception

Very tasty food and great service. Gladly again!

Unfortunately I cannot confirm the 4.6 stars (August 24): buffalo mozzarella was good - cherry tomatoes were quite tasteless. The spaghetti with scampi also had very little taste and the penne amatriciana needed more pecorino. The food was ok. up to good - but unfortunately not 4.6. The biggest point of criticism, however, was the wine: at €9 per glass, the price-performance ratio is far too bad even for Berlin. It's nice to sit outside and the service was (typically Italian, one might say) distant and friendly.

Great quiet place in an inner courtyard in Berlin!! Great evening atmosphere Excellent pizzas and great service I recommend

Hidden in the Heckmann-Höfe, but surprisingly well attended. Reservation makes sense. Attentive service. A bit restless outside due to the passing traffic and the court theater. Food and drinks are okay in terms of price, although rather touristy.

Pizzeria in a cool interior patio in the Jewish quarter of Berlin, the pizzas and pasta are very good. The bad thing is the wasps on the terrace.

My friend and I are both very fond of this 🇮🇹Italian restaurant. We particularly enjoy their pizza🍕 with bacon and chanterelle mushrooms(PIZZA MIT SPECK UND PFIFFERLINGEN), as well as the 🥂Frizzantino, a delightful sweet wine. Each visit is consistently enjoyable.

Very good minus star because my friend was still chewing food when waiter took our plates

It may be okay by German standards, but for any Mediterranean the quality is mediocre. Also they made a mistake when charging us because they didn't know which table we were at and they put borders on it. Very expensive for what it is.

Das Ristorante IL Garda ist echt klasse! Das Essen hat mich richtig umgehauen – die Pasta und Pizza sind super lecker. Der Innenhof ist wunderschön, da kann man richtig gut entspannen. Das Personal war total nett und hat den Abend perfekt gemacht. 5 von 5 Sternen – absolut empfehlenswert! Schaut da unbedingt mal vorbei. "

Great service. Great food. One of the nicest little squares off the main road. Pizza's are really good. Prices are reasonable. One of my favourite spots in Berlin.

Friendly service, original, well-seasoned, fresh food, in a great environment directly in the Heckmann Höfe

The food and the service was excellent, happy to got here again!

Great location, cute courtyard, staff is very helpful and polite. Portions were really big, everything was super tasty and fresh. Always happy 😋

The food was super tasty, great pizza and truffle spaghetti. Service Italian hospitable. Unfortunately very loud, as the summer theater is playing right next door.

Nice Italian restaurant. Very tasty and fairly fast service. I recommend

Great location, good setvice and delicious food. Thanks

Super cozy backyard on Oranienburgstraße.

Er voorbij gefietst met een gids en er nadien, op aanraden van de gids, gaan eten. Lekkere Italiaan op een mooie plek! Vriendelijke bediening, schooiden bij ons niet om een fooi zoals hieronder te lezen valt.

Actually, I was just walking through the courtyard when what was on the other guests' tables laughed at me. And then I ate the best bruschetta of my life here! Absolutely recommended.

I don't think anyone can leave here without a smile on their face, what can be said about this restaurant, the intimate location in the center of Berlin, the very friendly and helpful staff, the cleanliness, and most importantly the delicious food.. for me one word. ..PERFECT...

Niceeeeeee!!!!! The pizza is the best food here, my favorite one is funghi! The clerk is also very handsome🥹

Exceptionally pretty and very cozy and friendly atmosphere, pizzas and pasta dishes fantastic, including the tiramisu

It’s been what I would call a dream that came true. Super friendly staff/people, great service and delicious food.

We ate here after the backyard tour. The food tasted very good and the service was excellent. Above all, the atmosphere here is very quiet, which is always nice to see in such a big city.

The Italian restaurant in the inner courtyard of the Heckmann Höfen convinced me. The pizza, a mix of Neapolitan style and stone oven baking, was really tasty - the dough was just right and the ingredients were fresh. The service was also very pleasant and attentive. It's worth a visit if you want to enjoy good pizza in a relaxed atmosphere.

Excellent original and hearty pizza.

A pity! For many years I have enjoyed coming here for the food and the atmosphere. I always put up with the arrogance and unfriendliness of some waiters, especially since there were welcome exceptions. Unfortunately this time it was too much for me. M Koch described this aptly in his/her review. Without a friendly atmosphere it's not for me. Good (Italian) food in a nice atmosphere can also be found elsewhere in Mitte. Anyone who is a little more “thick-skinned” will definitely have a good time here. For me it was the last time.

Splendid venue in the heart of Berlin. Welcoming staff who transmit the warmth of Italianness. Highly recommended

Pizza was delicious and the courtyard offers a nice atmosphere. Service was okay, but could be friendlier.

Pizza and coffee are so delicious

Nach dem letzten Besuch können wir das Lokal keinesfalls weiterempfehlen. Unfreundliches Personal und schlechter Service

Restaurant run by Italians, Italian is spoken.

A beautiful, slightly hidden place. The service was very nice and you can see that they were passionate. Food - the pizza is also wonderful, I have never had such a good one. Prices very adequate! I recommend!

During our vacation in Berlin we came across this small, beautiful Italian restaurant by chance. Very idyllically located in a backyard alley, you can sit like you're on vacation, either inside or outside. The food and service are also top notch. Super fresh and high quality products, superbly prepared and at an absolutely fair price. We stayed 2 days in a row and will definitely come back when we are back in Berlin.

Rarely have we had such a good pizza. Since we took a short trip to Berlin and it was so good, we went back the next day. Fresh pasta with truffles is a dream. Starters and dessert are also great. Friendly staff and very attentive. We will definitely come back again

A totally romantic place in the middle of Berlin. Service was great, food was good, ambience was a plus!

Excellent Italian food. Both our pizzas and pasta dishes were fantastic.

Unfortunately no food because we were there at 9:30 p.m. and the kitchen closes at 10 p.m. Waiter more than unfriendly!

Unfortunately not convinced. “Homemade” gnocchi tasted like soft German potato dumplings and didn’t go well with the sauce. Campari Spritz was water with Campari. The limoncello for €4.50 is out of proportion. Service was polite but annoyed.

Pretty basic Napolitan-style pizza. Salami was not Italian but some local substitute wurst-like and ham was not real prosciutto. Nice atmosphere and service.

Beautiful shop with exceptionally good service and extravagant food. Great, thank you, we'll be back!!!

Everything was delicious, great service staff were so kind and fun !! We had a great experience !!
