Testa's Bistro in Northeim

Received an invitation to this great restaurant. Why didn't I know this before? Great food, great ambience and great staff. The boss always asks personally about satisfaction. Highly recommended!! There is a fridge magnet with a QR code where you can always check for current offers!! Tip: reserve a table, always very busy.

Super delicious! Pizza where the dough also tastes like AMORE! Very nice service! Absolutely recommended!

We ate a very tasty Napolitana pizza and pasta with a fillet/mushroom cream sauce. Everything was super tasty. We felt very comfortable and I would love to come back!

Very tasty Italian food and very friendly service, which is always in a good mood. We always enjoy coming here to eat ;)

Everything is just right here, the best Italian food and ambience, everyone is very attentive and friendly. Special requests are fulfilled promptly, or you can let the boss “conjure up” something for you. There is nothing comparable for us. You are the best.🥰

Great service, friendly and very attentive. The food was excellent. Reasonable portion. We'd love to come back.

We had a table in the winter garden with 8 adults and a toddler. The welcome was very warm and it didn't take long to order drinks and food. The food was served to everyone at the same time and hot. All dishes were delicious, perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. We would particularly like to emphasize how lovingly the service team looked after the smallest guest in our company. There was even a portion of fresh strawberries and a "children's schnapps" at the end of the evening at the house's expense. We can recommend this Italian restaurant without reservation and are already looking forward to our next visit.

Top Italian, probably the best in the area. Food was delicious, service was always friendly and helpful.

Unfortunately I can't quite agree with the good reviews. There were three of us there and we were greeted briefly and succinctly by the boss. A salad was accidentally served with the wrong dressing. When we kindly pointed this out to Ms. Testa, the correct dressing was visibly annoyed and slammed onto the table without saying anything. My companion asked for a new salad because the wrong dressing was still on the salad. A new salad was brought wordlessly and rather rudely. Not a kind word! Too bad! The pizza was delicious. The tagliatelle tasted relatively bland. Later the boss came out of the kitchen and mingled with the guests. That was nice, but it didn't make up for the unpleasant behavior of the waitress.

Very tasty pizza, fast friendly service. Nice ambience and good value for money. Absolutely recommended pizzeria.

Super friendly service, we didn't reserve a table and were still allowed to stay, it's recommended to reserve a table. We had a great meal and would come back again and again. The atmosphere is great, so cozy... I can only rave and the operator should sing more often...🫶

Good Italian. Very close to the highway, great alternative to take a break here. For people who don't feel like the usual range of rest areas and would like to enjoy good food, even on the go! Insider tip!

Been there twice and got a gastrointestinal infection both times...

Unreserved recommendation - everything fits here!

This was the best pizza I've eaten so far! Very good service too. Points are deducted for the noise level. Unfortunately, it was sometimes difficult to follow the table conversation.

In terms of quality, one of the best 'Italians' in the region, the food (both pasta and pizza) was very fresh and, despite being busy, quite quickly. The service was very friendly and professional. The beautifully presented desserts rounded off the visit. The heated winter garden is also good in the winter. (January 2025)

The restaurant was recommended to us by our customer, and we are grateful for that because: A great selection of food and drinks, coupled with the friendly and nice staff, the ambience and the uncomplicated nature of the restaurant as well as the good prices, made us (one Group of 10 people) had a lovely evening. I have added the restaurant to the list of good bars, cafes and restaurants and am already looking forward to my next visit. Kind regards and clear recommendation.

We always enjoy coming here. The food is actually always very tasty and sufficient. Prices are comparable to all others in this class. The boss and the team spread a good mood and are always friendly. Here the boss also likes to take the microphone. Unfortunately, you often only get one place with a reservation. It would be nice if the dishes on Instagram also had names so that they could be ordered.

Today we ate at Testa’s Bistro. We had ravioli with basil and have to say that unfortunately the food is not for those who are very hungry. A total of 4 pieces were delivered on the plate, which were also tasty, but were in no way enough. Despite the large number of visitors, the service was very friendly and attentive. Ambiance is also very nice.

We had our Christmas party here yesterday. A straight A in all respects. Great food, very tasty and great service. Thank you very much. We'd love to come back.

Oasis of well-being and very friendly staff. The food was outstanding - the dishes on the other tables also looked very good and it smelled so delicious there - it wasn't just because of my pretty companion. I'll be back! Michael from Braunschweig

We were there for the first time. Extremely friendly and attentive staff. The food was very good and corresponded to the price/performance ratio. We were very satisfied and anyone who writes anything negative complains at a very high level. Special requests were addressed and implemented! We'll definitely be back. Thanks for the great evening!

The new patio roof has become chic

The new winter garden is too cold this time of year

The food was very tasty. The service was friendly and the room exuded a lot of charm. Only recommended.

It was busy but the service was friendly and attentive and the food was good

Excellent and very high quality food. True Italian cuisine in a perfect and easy to reach location. Welcoming, informal environment, with well-kept and extremely clean furnishings. Impeccable service, always smiling staff who welcome you with kindness, precision and speed of service. Chef Maurizio, star of the evening together with the beautiful Giovanna. At that you! Can't wait to go back, highly recommended.

The food is excellent, the service is always friendly Children are treated very nicely and even when it's full, everything remains relaxed and calm We'd love to come back

Very nice Italian restaurant. The food (we had pasta and pizza, as well as bruscetta and tomato soup) was very tasty and we didn't have to wait long. The service was very friendly. The restaurant is modern and comfortably furnished. We'll definitely be back.

Were there for the first time today. Pizza was very tasty. We can only recommend it

Absolutely great! Very good service, very tasty food and great ambience!

Simply delicious, very friendly service, any time again, absolutely top value for money

Best Indian restaurant Service very nice

The food is very tasty. The staff extremely friendly. Absolute recommendation.

This pizzeria is a real insider tip! The service here is excellent and the pizza is an absolute delight. The boss revealed that the special dough rises for three days before it is made into a pizza - that you can taste it too! The floor is incredibly fluffy and simply perfect. The other dishes, especially the starter plate, are also highly recommended. The atmosphere is cozy and the service is friendly and attentive. For me it's worth every euro and my absolute recommendation for everyone who passes by in Nordheim or on the motorway. A little tip: It's worth making a reservation!

We were visiting Northeim and were invited here. The service is extremely friendly, you feel very welcome. Although it was busy, no one noticed the stress and the food came quickly. The meals were excellent. We were extremely satisfied and it was worth every cent. Thank you for that! If we're ever in the area again, we'll definitely come back.

Great little restaurant, a bit hidden if you don't know where it is. Insider tip: the kitchen is great!!

We arrived spontaneously with 10 people. The staff super friendly and nice owners!! Thanks to the team for the really delicious hospitality. Gladly again at any time. Pizza was simply a dream

The pizza was super delicious! We were there on a Wednesday (pizza day) and only had to pay €8 for a pizza 👍 we'll be back!

We were returning home from Kiel to Bavaria and discovered this great Italian bistro near the motorway. Cool, likeable… boss who does everything with love. Pizza, salad…top quality and very good taste. Very nice bistro. I can only recommend it to anyone who has the opportunity to come by.

Great black ravioli with salmon. Authentic Italian kitchen.

The food was super tasty, the service was good. We sat outside, but unfortunately the atmosphere isn't as nice as inside. I find drinks slightly overpriced, almost like big city prices.

Super delicious food. One of the best dishes I've ever eaten. Super nice and humorous staff. Simply great

Located right on the highway. Permanent noise level. We have pre-ordered and are seated at a dirty, unmade table. Patty answers from the waitress. It was full, a little appreciation would have been in order. We left without eating. But in my opinion this restaurant is not recommended!!! We wanted to celebrate something and were not expected as guests despite having booked in advance. By default, the guest is now considered a problem. Very critical of criticism!

Fantastic food, pasta al dente, excellently seasoned, the chanterelles extremely fresh. Bruschetta is also super tasty 😋. Thank you very much, we'll be happy to come back. At least 5 stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 on it.

Finally, people smells and tastes 101% Italian😋 🇮🇹🍝🍷🇮🇹😋

If you don't get a place 😉 you can continue up the path and across the field to the campsite in the arbor. There's no pizza there, but there are good schnitzels. A great view of the lake.

Highly Recommended From the appetizer to the dessert, it was super delicious! The service was very friendly and on point. Earned 5⭐️👍🏻

Tip top, always happy, Mr. Neighbor!

We love Testas! Everything just fits here. We recently ordered a few pizzas for a party. Everything went great, we will do it again soon. Keep it up!

The ambience conveys a great holiday flair! The boss served us in a warm manner and very quickly! There were actually no waiting times, everything went really quickly! And the food was the cherry on top! We had probably the best pizza in Northeim! All in all, Testa's is highly recommended!

The food was delicious and the service was friendly, as you would expect from Italy. Reservations are very useful.

Had an incredibly delicious meal there! 😀

Super nice restaurant. The location could be more romantic, but the service, staff and food, makes it possible to dream away to an Italian restaurant in the beach.

I have to say that I was very pleasantly surprised yesterday. Normally I don't like to go back to restaurants where I've already been disappointed. After a long time I went back and lo and behold - the best food I've eaten in a long time. You could say it's by far the best pizza you can get in Northeim. The Aperol Spritz tasted like Aperol Spritz and the dessert was the cherry on top. Fast, friendly and the atmosphere speaks for itself. I would love to come back.

Just great, the food was great and arrived quickly. The service is super nice and the boss is a great guy 😁 If you haven't been a guest here yet, you've missed something School grade 1+

The food is super delicious. Service is super friendly and everything else is also great. Gladly again.

Always a pleasure! In addition to delicious pizzas and pasta dishes (Pizza Frutti de Mare & Pizza Testa's are our favorites), we always try a dish from the daily menu. Today: Homemade linguine with veal liver and mushrooms. Super delicious! Maurizio & wife are great restaurateurs. Super nice and hospitable. The new winter garden is great.

As always, very tasty. The pizza was already half gone before I could take a photo of it. Grazie mile Mauricio.

The pizza was delicious. The service was top. It doesn't get any better. Unfortunately we live 300 km away. When we travel again, we would love to come back.

Super delicious pizza, Wednesdays are pizza day with €8 per pizza. Service is attentive and quick.

It was truly a pleasant surprise. The owners are 100% Italian, the food unexpectedly exquisite, the location also has a beautiful veranda suitable for eating outside in any season. At the end of the dinner, an incredible gift from the owner who sang for his customers. Highly recommended!

Very friendly and quick staff. The food is of a very high standard.

The panna cotta was a poem. A light, tender one.

The food is delicious, the service is simply amazing, 5 stars are still not enough

Great pizza... It's great to sit under the new roof

Always great, great food, great service. Best Italian in 100km radius....

Eat good. Drinks good. Mood good. Nice and friendly service.

Warm atmosphere, excellent service, great cuisine!

Very good pizzeria, very nice atmosphere. And soon also with a covered terrace :-))

Good,food, good prices, and very much vhild friendly team.

We decided on Testa's while we were passing through because of the exceptionally good rating - and it was absolutely the right thing to do! Super delicious food, everything fresh, very courteous service, child-friendly, all in all an absolute recommendation! ☺️

Very tasty food, great atmosphere and a boss who is always in a good mood.

Top Italian restaurant, very well located on the motorway, very friendly staff and delicious pizza with high-quality ingredients. Worth a stop!

Very nice atmosphere, very friendly staff and really excellent food Can be recommended without reservation

Very tasty food and a friendly innkeeper...; It was fun, I'd love to do it again...

I think the food is super delicious. I can only recommend the alternating dishes if you want to try something different. In the evening you have a great view of the Leinetal.

Very tasty food and very friendly service. We were definitely not there for the last time.

Really great really..! Staff friendly, family treatment Very sympathic. Sad food, delicious and great presentation. Someone really appreciates their guests, thanks to the whole team

Great atmosphere... great food...

The food was delicious and the service was very friendly... We were very pleasantly surprised...

Top restaurant, I can recommend it to everyone

On Thursday, January 25th We were at the restaurant at 7 p.m. after making a reservation. It was very loud. Like being in a train station, almost unbearable. No staff knew exactly what wine went with the grilled salmon. A weak picture!!! I'm from the hospital staff. Can't recommend the pizzeria at this time.

Super delicious food in a great ambience with a view of the Kiessee! The restaurateur always has a smile on his face and likes to sing Italian songs. We look forward to every visit and celebration with his team!

Delicious Italian food with great service and good value for money. There is also a charismatic boss who completes the ambience. Always my pleasure…

Mega delicious food, exquisite wines, friendly, funny service including the boss and boss. Always very, very nice with you. Price-performance ratio just right. We are always happy to come to you.

Really delicious Italian food. The pizza is simply amazing! The most friendly service! Definitely coming back! Did I forget to say about the 🍨?

Very nice and well-kept restaurant on the edge of Northeim. Very good service and a very nice waitress who remembers you even if you haven't been there for a while! The restaurant is dog friendly!!

Sehr freundlich, aber Essen war nix. Völlig verkochte Nudeln, die in Soße ertränkt waren. Geschmacklich auch nicht gut. Da hilft dann auch der niedrige Preis nicht.

Klasse ! Bestes Team ! Essen super Lecker ! Top Qualität 👍

Erste Wahl. Das Essen ist der Wahnisinn. Das Team super freundlich. Man kann sie nur empfehlen.

Ein wirklich sehr gutes italienisches Restaurant und absolut zu empfehlen. Das Essen ist lecker, frisch und für die Qualität auch echt preiswert.

Sehr netter, aufmerksamer und höflicher Inhaber...mittwochs ist Pizzatag...das Restaurant konnten wir von der Straße aus nicht sehen...Geheimtipp in Northeim...

Immer hervorragende Küche toller Service und das Ambiente stimmt auch wir fühlen uns sehr wohl im Testas.👍🍀

Sind auch der Durchreise angehalten, haben ein Getränk an der Theke bekommen bis ein Tisch frei war. Super netter Service , essen kam sehr schnell und war Mega lecker. Das nächste mal mit mehr Zeit !! Vielen Dank

Tolle Pizza und Pastagerichte. Nette Bedienung und rundes, authentisches Gesamtbild. Auf jeden Fall weiterempfohlen!
