Trattoria Emiliana - Düsseldorf (Pempelfort) in Düsseldorf

The operator is very, very nice...as a service technician I sometimes have to do business on this street...and every time I was there there were very nice moments...I was always invited and nice conversations made the pizza even better...

I was last in this Italian restaurant in 2021 and had very positive memories of it - and this time I wasn't disappointed either. The store was full, which definitely speaks for the quality. The ambience is pleasant and cozy, with the red and white checkered tablecloths in classic Italian style. The menu offers Italian classics and a nice selection of desserts - in addition to the classic tiramisu, there is also a delicious Torta della Nonna. The prices are absolutely reasonable. The service was extremely friendly and accommodating. I felt very comfortable and can't understand the sometimes negative reviews regarding the service or allegedly excessive prices. The daily and weekly menu was very appealing - truffle pasta and pizza with burrata were priced between 25 and 30 euros, which is absolutely fair for the quality of the ingredients and the size of the portions. I was positively surprised by the Aperol Spritz: well mixed, which is unfortunately not a given everywhere. The pasta carbonara was solid, although the sauce wasn't quite as creamy and I'm not sure if guanciale was actually used. So overall it's good, but not outstanding - although that's certainly a question of personal taste and doesn't detract from the overall impression. The pizza, on the other hand, was excellent: great dough, great toppings – simply delicious! The tiramisu at the end was also great. I suspect that the sponge cake was homemade - not classic ladyfingers, not too sweet, nice and creamy and completely delicious. Conclusion: We will definitely be back!

Food was absolutely scrumptious. First they serve Bread with Garlic, olive oil n basil dip. Then i got my ordered vegetarian pizza with Burata (super tasty) . Ten time for some dessert where i ordered Tiramisu which was also super tasty

Delicious food, postive staff, good ambiance. 5/5

Food was quite okay. Pizza tasted very good, but was soaked in oil. My cola was not carbonated, which doesn't mean it was fresh, and the glasses were dirty. Service was good but I can't understand why in 2025 they still don't offer normal card payments. “Only from €20 with card” and “tips only in cash”… I won’t come again.

Very friendly, food very tasty, good prices 👍🏼

We had a great time at this Italian restaurant in Düsseldorf. It was almost full but we managed to get a table. Friendly Italian service. Food was good, the starter plate could have been better; on the other hand pizzas were great. House red wine was OK. I would come back and probably try other food options.

For me, one of the better Italians in Düsseldorf with an excellent pizza that clearly stands out from the others. In addition to pizza, there is a varied menu and various exciting daily specials. The service is very friendly, attentive and quick. Drinks and food are served with charm and humor. The ambience is typically Italian and you feel a little like you are on the Adriatic. We've been there twice so far and we'll definitely come back again and again.

Totally below average food with miserable service....on top of that, grossly overpriced! My recommendation: definitely avoid...my tip: go to the great trattorias on Rossstrasse, for example La Castagna with first-class service and TOP food AND significantly cheaper

Been there 20 times, received great service 20 times and ate very well! Absolutely recommended, thank you very much!

I was there alone yesterday. Super nice and accommodating. One of the tastiest pizzas I've ever had. I'd love to come back.

Great discovery with very good, family service and very tasty food as well as a good wine selection

Delicious food! Nice service. Every dish was tasty!

Great food, great pizza too ❤️ Always my pleasure!

Very nice little Italian where Italy is lived!!

Fantastic food and even greater service. Definitely my favorite Italian restaurant in Düsseldorf!

The combination of varied, delicious dishes, attentive service and an inviting ambience ensures a harmonious overall experience.

Child-friendly, which is unfortunately not often the case in Düsseldorf!

An Italian restaurant that is also open on Monday evenings. Somehow it feels like everyone else has their day off at the beginning of the week. Nice atmosphere and attentive staff, freshly cooked dishes and a great wine selection. Everything fine. I'd love to come back.

The delivery is simply canceled after 1.5 hours of waiting, other things are constantly being delivered than what was ordered and then very unfriendly!

I recommend it...excellent service...everything delicious...I'm Italian and I was looking for Italian cuisine that was 100% satisfied and I will return again

Ordered from Lieferando several times and always received the wrong delivery!

Perfect for lunch on the terrace. I love the bread with garlic in advance.

Amazing service and food. We were 5 days in Dusseldorf and went here two times. Recommend a lot.

Very tasty pizza and salad. Great staff. We'll go back and try it us slowly through the menu. Thanks for a great evening

Actually you should give 6 stars everywhere. You immediately feel at home here.

Perfect food, very nice service, top service, 10 stars from me

Excellent food, both in terms of quality and taste. The pizzas are paper-thin and topped just right, starters are excellent.

Well located restaurant. Unfortunately, the lunch menu was almost the same price as the evening menu.

Very good restaurant, we were very satisfied with all the dishes and the service.

as always everything perfect, thank you

Small but fine Italian restaurant in Pempelfort. The food was super tasty. In addition to the normal menu, there was a large daily menu. The service is very good and you quickly feel at home. We'll definitely come back.

Very tasty, although the shop was packed, friendly and quick service.

Fantastic, delicious food in large portions, incredibly friendly and courteous service and a beautiful decor. I would like to eat here again!

Centrally located. Very friendly staff. The menu is large enough and the dishes are delicious. Thank you for the great evening!!!!

Very tasty, varied food with very friendly service

Visited 3 times and always ate well, Highly Recommended!

In fact, I've been going there for 24 years. I like the atmosphere there without any big frills and actually those typical white and red checkered tablecloths. The food is always great, and special requests are also taken into account.

Sehr gutes Essen, angenehmes Personal, realistische Preise.

On my visit to dusseldorf i was craving for a good italian pizza,, and the pizza i had here was just amazing like even in Rome it is hard to find a perfect pizza Margherita Con Bufala cheese, the environment of the place is just amazing very romantic perfect for a romantic candle light dinner date, the staff was very warm and welcoming and attentive about that everything should be perfect,, very friendly owner and staff,,highly suggested

Es ist ein absolut charmantes Restaurant, mit einem super Service und gutem Essen :)

Sehr freundliche Gastgeber und hervorragende Gerichte. Eine super abwechslungsreiche Tageskarte. Sehr zu empfehlen, authentische italienische Speisen.

Sehr leckeres Essen, toller Service, aber insgesamt sehr laut, obwohl es noch nicht mal voll war. Dazu Britney spears und andere Ohrwürmer und es wird schwer sich aufs Gespräch zu konzentrieren 😅

Cozy place, friendly staff. Good pizza, nice prices and a little desert on the house.

Wir waren mir Kunden dort und hatten im Vorfeld eine kleine Karte abgesprochen. Von der ersten Kommunikation bis hin zum Abend selbst, war alles absolut großartig. Das Ambiete ist gemütlich, der Service ausgezeichnet und das Essen ist eine 10/10! Absolute Empfehlung für Düsseldorf!

Essen sehr lecker. Service aufmerksam, leider sehr laut

Super netter Empfang, schönes Ambiente und super leckeres Essen. Wir hatten Salat und Pizza, zuvor Brot mit einem mega leckeren Aufstrich. Vielen Dank nochmal für den schönen Abend!

Sono Italiano e posso confermare che in questo posto si mangia veramente benissimo e veramente italiano. La pasta è freschissima e le ricette sono tradizionali e gustose. Lasciatevi un po' di posto per il dessert, il tiramisù fatto in casa è qualcosa di eccezionale. Bravissimi!

Terrible! We did reservation. But when we arrived in the restaurant, they had already given our table! Terrible! Not trustable people!

RISTORANTE AL TOP. CUCINA DI GRANDE LIVELLO. SUPER CONSIGLIATO.

Ottima cucina e servizio impeccabile Giuseppe persona meravigliosa ☺️

Ottimo cibo, servizio cortese e disponibile, ambiente molto accogliente e famigliare. Sicuramente ci torneremo. Un grazie particolare a Giuseppe il proprietario.

Vera cucina italiana! Posso solo consigliarlo!

Schöne Trattoria mit klassischem, italienischem Essen und Getränken. Es gibt Pizza, aber auch tolle Nudelgerichte und einen sehr leckeren Espresso.

Ein kleines, aber wirklich tolles Restaurant. Das Essen ist traumhaft gut und der Service ist ebenfalls super. Sollte es mich wieder nach Düsseldorf verschlagen, komme ich gerne wieder 😁

Super toller Italiener. Essen klasse, Kellner super nett. Total flexibel. Haben uns einen tollen Abend beschert. Danke!! Immer gerne wieder🤗

Se sei italiano e ti trovi a Düsseldorf devi assolutamente passare da Giuseppe. Posto bellissimo, titolare e personale davvero cordiali e disponibili. Se mai dovessi tornare a Düsseldorf, il suo locale sarebbe una tappa assicurata.

Sehr gutes Essen und tolles Team. Wir fühlten uns wohl. Mit kleiner Vorspeise aus der Küche und fairen Preisen. Empfehle ich.

Super lecker... und authentisch

Eines unserer Lieblingsrestaurants. Ein herzlicher Inhaber, ein tolles Team, eine der besten Pizzen in Düsseldorf und sehr leckere Nudel- und Fleischgerichte. Dazu ein Glas Primitivo und das Ganze zu einem fairen Preis, frisch zubereitet. Birnencarpachio mit Ziegenkäse finde ich auch sehr lecker und Gnocchi mit Büffelmorzarella in einer wunderbaren Tomatensauce.

Wir gehen regelmäßig in der Trattoria Emiliana essen und sind immer außerordentlich zufrieden. Der Mittagstisch ist erschwinglich und immer sehr lecker. Selbstverständlich kann man auch zu anderen Uhrzeiten super dort essen. Die Terrasse ist die perfekte Sitzgelegenheit im Sommer. Auch das gesamte Team ist super freundlich. Eine Empfehlung für jeden, der die italienische Küche gern hat.

First time to write a review. We visited for anniversary dinner but regretted that I decided to have a dinner in here. First of all, the waiter is rude and not professional. He dropped some part from our salad but didn’t say anything and just left. Even I called him and he saw it, he was just ignoring us and let us wait for more than 15min. Secondly, there was a insect I never see on the table. I really felt discrimination because I’m not an European. The only good point is that the pizza was good here, but their service was horrible.

Great food and a very nice owner. If you want to eat good Italian food eat here!

Wir hatten die Tortelloni mit Spinat und Ricotta, Spaghetti Carbonara und zum Nachtisch Panna Cotta. Das Essen war wirklich top und das Personal sehr freundlich. Toiletten sehr sauber! Ich komme gerne wieder. Danke für den schönen Abend.

Unser Essen war echt gut! Absolut zu empfehlen.

Ein klein bisschen Italien , in Düsseldorf.....

Mi trovavo a Dusseldorf con la mia ragazza e casualmente abbiamo notato questa trattoria italiana. Personale molto gentile e simpatico, inutile dire che il cibo era ottimo. Bravissima persona il proprietario, non appena gli abbiamo detto di essere italiani ci ha offerto un limoncello.

Excellent place to enjoy a deli Italian food .. available in all lenguajes !!

We had the best dinner at this place the other day, pasta there is incredible, and the atmosphere at the table outside was very romantic.

Die bestellten Pizzen waren gut, aber jetzt auch nichts besonderes. Andere Gerichte als Pizzen sowie Vorspeisen waren bei uns leider wegen der Preise nicht drin. Wir wollten außerdem noch ein Dessert bestellen und teilen. Das von uns anvisierte Dessert gab es dann jedoch nicht mehr. Service war aufmerksam. Leider waren die Fenster geöffnet und der ganze Zigarettenrauch von der Terrasse ist ins Restaurant gezogen. Ein No-Go für uns. Sind ja nicht in einer Raucherkneipe gewesen ...

Hier gibt es die besten Nudeln in ganz Düsseldorf. Wir lieben dieses Restaurant einfach, von der Weinkarte und der abwechslungsreichen Speisekarte und den besten Service überhaupt 😊

Amazing food with a great ambiance. The food was recommended perfectly and each dish was delicious!

HEEL vriendelijk en super lekker!

Es war sehr lecker. Es gibt tolles Essen mit und ohne Fleisch das Ambiente ist toll und besonders die Nudeln waren lecker.

Das Essen war sehr lecker und der Service war auch nett . Wir fanden den hausgemachte Dip sehr lecker. Wir möchten das Rezept. Die Einrichtung ist schön. Aber die Uhr geht falsch.

Wir sind immer sehr gern dort. Immer lecker und immer sehr nett.

Eine wahre kulinarische Oase mit phantastischen italienischen Köstlichkeiten in zwangloser, familiärer Atmosphäre und überaus freundlichem Service. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Per una trasferta aziendale siamo stati diverse volte nella trattoria di Giuseppe, proprietario gentile, educato e premuroso. Il cibo è ottimo, di qualità e ben cucinato. Abbiamo assaggiato i primi, la carne, la pizza e i dolci. Tutto delizioso. Grazie per l'accoglienza calorosa. Alla prossima occasione torneremo sicuramente.

Super lecker, gerne wieder!!!!!

Sehr nette Inhaber super Service und vorallem lecker

Tolle Atmosphäre, toller Service, leckeres Essen. ♡ Wunschlos glücklich.

Super lecker , freundlich Vitello tonnato☺️ Antipasti👍 Hochwertige Produkte, Fisch, Oel, Zabaione👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Lange nicht mehr so gut gegessen 🙏❤️

Sehr gutes italienisches Essen, tolles Ambiente und lustiges Personal! Keine Billigkneipe aber super Preis/Leistung. Sehr zu empfehlen

Einen wunderschönen Abend mit einem super tollen Essen verbracht. Das Restaurant ist nur zuempfehlen. Wenn man in Düsseldorf ist, sollten man hier unbedingt essen gehen!!!!!! Der Service ist einfach nur toll und sehr familiär.

Spitzen Essen, sehr schöner Abend. Personal unglaublich freundlich.

On a quest to have food suitable for a diabetic... Spanish tapas often works.... This was lovely. The camembert balls OMG. Admittedly you might need to walk it off 😁 Really friendly staff, good food good wine....winner

Beste Trattoria, in der wir jemals waren! Antipasti waren unvergleichlich gut, Hauptgerichte und Dessert ebenfalls optisch sehr ansprechend und von bester Qualität - eben genauso, wie man sich das wünscht. Auch die Besitzer waren ausgesprochen freundlich, kulant und trotz vollen Hauses schnell in der Bedienung. Wir können dieses Restaurant besten Wissens und Gewissens weiterempfehlen und werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen!

Tolles Dinner mit Freunden bei Trattoria Emiliana! Extrem netter Service und köstliches Essen. Große Auswahl an wechselnden Gerichten, die am Tisch vorgetragen werden und auch an der Tafel zu finden sind. Alles war super lecker, von der Vorspeisenplatte, über Pasta und Pizza bis zum Tiramisu. Sehr zu empfehlen 👍🏻👍🏻

Real good Italian restaurant - even in the delivery.

Ein sehr gutes kleines Restaurant welches ich an dieser Stelle nicht erwartet hätte:-). Sehr sehr leckeres Essen!

Leckeres Essen, guter Service, leider etwas hoch preisig.

come a casa, cortesia, allegria, sapori di Italia, se cerchi un ristorante che ti faccia essere in Italia

Da parte del titolare Giuseppe il massimo dell'ospitalità lui è una persona molto raffinata .Il cibo molto curato e attento alla qualità ! Ottimo 👍

Amazing food and service, very suitabke price. I would definitely come back 😘

Super nette Bedienung Hammer Food Auswahl genial

Essen und Service prima, leider ziemlich laut

Great Italian restaurant. For sure diserves a visit.

Tolle Atmosphäre und lecker Wein 🍷

Ottimo ristorante italiano si mangia bene servizio veloce ..gestione italiana
