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!
Takumi is one of my favorite ramen spots in Nuremberg. The ramen is exceptionally delicious and of the highest quality. The karaage, which is expertly prepared, and the gyoza, which are also very impressive, deserve special mention. All the dishes taste fresh and high-quality. Add to that the extremely friendly staff, a pleasant atmosphere, and a beautifully designed interior. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable experience and highly recommended.
A very nice and friendly restaurateur, excellent cuisine (slightly adapted to German tastes). We like to stop by whenever we're in Bautzen or the surrounding area. Until next time!
The hotel is truly special! Chef Reiner gives you a very warm and personal welcome. He always has a quick quip, and the dinner was incredibly delicious. There are cell phone holders and charging cables everywhere. For breakfast, I even got a personalized egg. As a frequent traveler, I immediately felt at home and it felt like coming home. I'd love to come back.
Very delicious vegan food! A good selection of dishes, everything is beautifully presented, the service is super friendly, and the prices are right :)
I'll definitely be back and will recommend it!
My mother and I came from another city and were treated very unfairly. We had a reservation, but when we arrived, we were told to sit at a very small table right at the front. It was very cramped there because there was a large group of people sitting next to us, and we had to stand for about 15 minutes. After that, we asked if we could sit somewhere else. In the end, we were still sitting right by the entrance. Every time the door opened, a blast of cold air came in, and it was very cold.
We were told there were no other seats. But shortly after, two girls came in after us and were able to sit inside without any problems. Then two more girls without reservations came in and also sat inside.
My mother and I are foreigners and wear hijabs. That's why we wondered if we were being treated differently.
The food and presentation were okay, but this situation really upset me.
I've driven past it so many times, but yesterday I spontaneously stopped in for dinner. The atmosphere was lovely, the music was pleasant, and the staff was exceptionally attentive and courteous. Our meal was absolutely perfect!
They even gave us a little parting gift in the run-up to Christmas.
Thank you, and we'll definitely be back!
Fantastic restuarant with great food. They accomodated our large group at the last moment! Top notch and worth a visit especially for the Schnitzel and Vegan options.
