We were here again for the first time since the change in ownership and chef. Unfortunately, the quality of the food and therefore the price-performance ratio do not come close to its predecessor. My fish trio was dry and fried to death at a price of 28.50 euros. The vegetables were on point, but bland and carelessly arranged. A pat of butter and a little salt could have worked wonders. I also missed some love for the starter, bruschetta. Quartered cherry tomatoes are not what I know as bruschetta. When eating, everything fell apart because the pieces were too big. My mother had ordered spaghetti aglio e olio and when she finished the pasta there was still a huge pool of oil on the plate. So the chef has to get a little better. The service was nice and the ambience is great. We will therefore give the restaurant another chance soon.
Super nice, small and, above all, typically Italian cult restaurant with charm. The Luciano is an absolute must in Cologne, especially for fans of upscale, yet simple (good) cuisine.
Always happy with important business partners and loved ones in the family.
Bravissimo!!!
Nice atmosphere, but unfortunately the food was quite disappointing. The three of us were alone in the restaurant after work and none of us really enjoyed it. The white wine was good, the red wine was rather average. Only the prices were above average... It's a shame, I had very good memories of the wine shop. However, they are already over 20 years old. Certainly nice for a wine evening, but I would go somewhere else for food.
The pizza here has always tasted great! Sometimes it's made really quickly, which is perfect if you don't want to wait long. A little tip: The pizza is usually not cut, so it's best to say so straight away if you want that. Otherwise a really good address for delicious pizza!
Surprisingly good 👍 highly recommended. Very good, tasty, and attractively presented food at truly reasonable prices! 😀 As a welcome from the kitchen, you get fresh bread and even bruschetta, as well as an espresso, Sambuca, or grappa to leave. Consistently prompt and very courteous service. Mille Grazie!
€7.50 for a 0.75L bottle of “San Pellegrino” mineral water🤔 The bottle was brought to the table already opened. (completely without screw cap) Apparently the mineral water regulations are not being adhered to.... Food and service on April 6th, 2025 were OK, prices were very high, see photo of invoice
Unfortunately we were given the wrong starter and the waiting time was very long. We had to wait 1h30 for our starter. The ambience was very, very loud. Communication was hardly possible. We would probably still be waiting for the Fanta if we hadn't paid.
By far one of the best Italian restaurants, always warm and very tasty. Guests even come from further away to enjoy it again. Stay like this, you are great!!
