I've been nothing short of amazed at all the excellent Italian food I happen upon during visits to…read moreGermany; Boccadoro is such a place. Owner suggested that I must try the daily special, a simple salt and black peppered Sea Bass which tasted anything but simple. Cooked to perfection - really. Even the salad mista and antipasto were absolutely amazing - so much so that I asked why these taste so much better than what I've eaten at other places for the past 30 years. He smiled and shrugged his shoulders "I don't know. Perhaps those chefs weren't Italian?" I smiled. I know when a chef wants to keep his secret, kept a secret. Charming sidewalk setting when weather permits, church bells echoing down the cobblestone streets, smell of flowering vines and voices (in Italian) discussing the ongoings of football, the changes in menu or politics. The food amount is generous but not overwhelmingly large. Owner has a great sense of humor which made leaving that much more difficult. Fantastic place for hanging out over coffee, food, beer and/or wine.

The place is nice, but the price is not worth to pay. The food is ok (nothing special) and the…read moreportions very small. The service was ok...

THEY EARN (!) MONEY THANKS TO EURO 2024 WITHOUT GIVING ANY RECEIPT!…read moreOn the 26th of June, Vapiano in Göttingen displayed the CZE-TUR football match streamed on the public channel ARD. I stopped by to see my friends, who had already ordered their food and drinks. Since I had just finished a workout, I didn't want to consume any sugary drinks or food and didn't order anything. When the first half ended, I tried to leave, but the employees wouldn't let me. When they realized I didn't speak German well, AN EMPLOYEE AT THE DOOR YELLED ME AND TREATED ME VERY POORLY, HUMILIATING ME IN FRONT OF THE CROWD. I asked my friends if I needed to pay to watch the match (which I left during the half time), and they said there was no such thing. Despite explaining to the cashier that I hadn't eaten or drunk anything, SHE INSISTED I HAD TO PAY 5 EUROS. The match was on a public channel, so this made no sense, but THEY FORCED ME TO PAY AND ONLY GAVE ME A PIECE OF PAPER WITH "BEZAHLT" WRITTEN ON IT, REFUSING TO PROVIDE A PROPER RECEIPT. As I left, I told the man at the door that his behavior was rude and unacceptable. HE YELLED AT ME AGAIN. I got really angry knowing THEY GAINED MONEY FROM ME THAT WOULDN'T BE TAXED.

In Göttingen this is one of the best places to drink a good Italian cappuccino and the espresso tastes delicious and strong, too. The pizzas cost 3 Euros. The salads are a bit more, and I have found mine I last had too expensive for just green leaves. I will try it out again though. It is situated closely to the theatre - and maybe before a good performance at the Deutsche Theater Göttingen you would like to come here :-). CIAO!
