TCK Cucina Italiana in Dortmund

Every review must be a lie. The food tastes awful... No spices at all. The noodles taste like water. And the order arrived wrong.

Definitely try it! Authentic Italian cuisine. I'll be back.

Outstanding Italian Cuisine in the Kaiserviertel ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ristorante Emilio has been our absolute favorite Italian restaurant in Dortmund for many years – and for good reason! What makes Emilio so special? The perfect combination of everything a first-class Italian restaurant should offer: attentive and warm service that makes you feel instantly welcome, an inviting ambiance that evokes a true Italian atmosphere, and fair prices that perfectly reflect the quality. The menu is intentionally small and refined, with constantly changing dishes that highlight seasonality and fresh ingredients. Here you'll find both timeless classics and exciting, reinterpreted Italian delicacies. The fantastic wine list and selection of Italian drinks – from various amari to the perfect limoncello spritz – are particularly noteworthy. The menu is intentionally small and refined, with constantly changing dishes that emphasize seasonality and fresh ingredients. Our personal highlights: The antipasti are always an absolute delight and a worthy start to the evening. The changing fish dishes are exceptional and highly recommended. The semifreddo is divine and the perfect finale. A small note about the tiramisu: It is undoubtedly excellent and very popular with most guests. For purists like myself, who prefer classic Italian tiramisu with mascarpone and eggs (without cream), it remains a long-standing quest – but that's probably more of a German market adaptation than a flaw in the restaurant. Special recommendations: In summer, be sure to use the outdoor terrace – pure Italian flair! The adjoining wine bar can be reserved for company and family celebrations. Reservations are recommended, especially on weekends. Conclusion: Whenever we are in North Rhine-Westphalia, a visit to Emilio's is an absolute must! A restaurant we always enjoy returning to and can recommend with complete confidence. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

The consistently excellent quality of the food, the warm and welcoming service, and the overall ambiance are always a wonderful experience! 🍷❤️

I ordered fish and it was delicious! But unfortunately the service was very slow.
