I discovered this lovely restaurant today. The staff was very friendly, and the food was prepared quickly. The portions were large and tasted perfect. I'm from Cologne and will be back soon.
Disappointing! What does it say: the customer is king? … unfortunately no! After a completely over-salted main course, this was compensated with ONLY an espresso for my husband on the house. I had none of it! The main thing is that business is running. Pretty arrogant!
A big compliment to the super friendly team - the lady behind the counter in particular has great patience and is super friendly to every guest! We had the small gyro plate completely - super tasty and well seasoned...thumbs up 👍👍👍
We visited the Olivenhof for the first time by chance and were very, very pleasantly surprised. As is typical in a fine dining restaurant, the dining room is decorated in subtle colors and exudes a pleasant warmth. The service was friendly and unfussy from the start, very warm and accommodating.
Unfortunately, our chosen starter was sold out. The chef then offered us a much better alternative (for the same price).
The main courses were all excellent and much larger than we expected. The pasta dishes were very finely seasoned. Each dish had subtle nuances that you couldn't even come close to recreate at home.
The meat dishes were also wonderful! The schnitzel tasted exceptionally good, perfectly cooked, and served with delicious potato wedges.
The Wagyu burger is sensational! While it's almost impossible for one person to manage with bacon and a fried egg, the combination of the individual ingredients is a poem! The sauces and dips reflect the quality of the cuisine.
The prices for drinks are absolutely reasonable. A glass of wine costs under €5, which is really fair. The desserts and aperitifs are also reasonably priced. The time between meals was just right; we didn't have to wait or rush.
We will definitely dine there again. The five of us had an exceptionally good meal, enjoyed a pleasant and wonderful ambiance, and felt very comfortable.
Very nice atmosphere. Really nice people there.
Service perfect and the food is really good!!!
What can I say, I've been there twice now and felt super comfortable each time.
Absolutely recommended!! 👍.
We celebrated our beautiful wedding here. The food was very good, the service was great as always, we would love to come back. The guests felt very comfortable, so we were relaxed and were able to enjoy the day.
Typical Cologne corner pub. Most of them know each other and meet at the bar for a Kölsch.
There used to be a lot of them...today they are rare.
If you're interested in darts... you can play here.
Although according to Google the snack bar should be open, no one can ever be reached by phone. We couldn't order online either. You can always see a red clock, even if the snack bar is open for half an hour.
Unfortunately I can only give 1 star. The positive reviews are therefore completely unclear to me, unless everyone drives by and orders their pizza on site and waits for it.
Pizzeria Del Bajazzo – ein echter Geheimtipp in Bergisch Gladbach
Letzte Woche war ich bei der Pizzeria Del Bajazzo und wurde rundum positiv überrascht. Schon beim Reinkommen spürt man diesen charmanten, fast familiären Vibe – das kleine Fachwerkhaus strahlt Gemütlichkeit aus, und der Duft aus dem Steinofen macht sofort Appetit.
Ich habe mich für eine Pizza Diavolo entschieden – schön scharf, perfekt knuspriger Rand und der Teig: genau wie er sein soll – luftig und aromatisch. Mein Begleiter hatte die Pasta Combinazione, ein Trio aus Lasagne, Spaghetti Carbonara und Rigatoni al forno – alles hausgemacht, super gewürzt und reichlich portioniert.
Der Service war herzlich und unaufdringlich. Man merkt, dass hier mit Leidenschaft gearbeitet wird – sowohl in der Küche als auch am Tisch. Zwar war es recht voll und dadurch etwas laut, aber das hat eher zur lebendigen Atmosphäre beigetragen.
Einziger kleiner Nachteil: Nur Barzahlung – wer’s nicht weiß, steht eventuell blöd da. Aber dafür ist das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis top.

Fazit: Wer italienisches Essen liebt und keine Lust auf 08/15-Pizza hat, sollte Del Bajazzo unbedingt ausprobieren. Authentisch, lecker und mit Seele – ich komme auf jeden Fall wieder!
