BRING CASH! We just arrived in Cologne today. We were not in the mood for German food. Found that…read morethe reviews here were excellent so went here for late lunch. Staff was attentive, friendly and spoke English. I'm Italian and can be discerning on Italian cuisine so I was surprised to find how genuine and delicious the meal was. Pizza was prepared with a thin chewy crust and sauce and ingredients were very fresh. The insalata rucola was also delicious and fresh with plenty to share with my husband. The restaurant was elegant, artsy but not too fussy and not too noisy either. My only warning to travelers is that this restaurant doesn't accept payment via credit card! You must bring cash.

Well in my head the calzone seemed like a good idea but once I saw it, it was not what I had imagined. It wasn't crispy like I like it and the ingredients were all in the middle not dispersed throughout the entire calzone. The flavor was eh alright and I enjoy sauce with my calzone which wasn't an option either. I would skip on the calzone and probably get pasta next time. Live and ya learn

We were greeted in Italian by a very nice & welcoming young lady. It turned out to be the perfect place for a light lunch. We shared the antipasto plate, a basket of delicious bread & a bottle of water (which, much to our surprise, cost 6 euros. Half of what we paid for the antipasto) We ended our lunch with a cappuccino & left totally satisfied. We'll definitely go back for another wonderful lunch before we leave Cologne. Next time we'll add a pasta dish . We highly recommend Enoteca. BRAVI.
