I chose the Caprese salad with a delicious balsamic dressing. The fresh tomatoes with greens and hard cheese was outstanding. We also shared very crispy and hot. French fries that were wonderful. My friend had the mushroom pizza which I enjoyed a bite of. It was also delicious. This is a great place to sit and watch people walk by. Great place for any meal.

Apologized and gave change back at the end. We ordered a salad, pizza and a burger plain. Waited over 30 mins for food. When it came (and this takes effort) it was all wrong except the salad. The plain meat and bun burger came fully loaded, sauces, veggies, cheese and I believe a fried egg. Sent back and they brought it back plain but then left the fries in the kitchen and forgot to bring them back. Pizza was entirely wrong and after multiple errors and no real effort to make it up to us or a manager to visit the table to apologize I didn't have it in me to return the pizza with canned corn on it. Pizza ordered and charged for was the higher priced chicken pizza. Just not a good experience at all. Lesson learned. When we normally visit Heidelberg we have other places we usually enjoy but this was a busy evening and was a spur of moment decision. Cafeteria food at best. Many other places to enjoy. Pass on this one.

You sit down and then you go back to pick up your order, once your 'number' starts buzzing. While it is a hassle to eat here due to the parking and it being downtown, it's definitely convenient if you are already in the area or you just got done shopping at the mall. They have a separate entrance for strollers and a little area for the kids to play, color and entertain themselves - definitely appreciate this so they can do something with all that energy. There have been many kid friendly restaurants in Europe(more than in the US) - and you can add Vapiano to the list.

When you get there, you are given a card that you charge all your food orders too. There are pasta counters where you place your order to the chef at that station. After they ask you a few questions on how you want your dish modified, they begin cooking right there on the spot. Don't go too far away because, they are speedy!! Everything I ordered took no more than a few minutes to prepare. You really don't even have enough time to get bored and check your phone - that is how fast they are. I ordered two rounds of pasta because one wasn't enough. Not to say the portions were small, but the food was that good I had to go back for a second helping. My first course was the chicken alfredo, to which I added a second helping of chicken. I also ordered a side of the bruschetta. The Chicken Alfredo was everything and more that I was expecting. Creamy, Cheesy, the sauce was the perfect consistency and flavorful. I had some fresh shredded, not grated, parm added to the top and that really set it off. The bruschetta was equally as delicious. I'm not sure how they flavored their tomatoes, if they even did that, but they tasted very fresh and diced the perfect sized for a small handheld dish. I really have no major complaints about the Bruschetta because it was such an amazing dish, I was just expecting there to be some kind of mozzarella cheese and a balsamic reduction of some sort drizzled across the top. Again, not a problem at all because of how well it was executed without. After seeing what one of my dinner guests ordered (pollo picante w/ zoodles) I had a small sample and instantly knew I had to have a full serving to myself. I ordered mine with ziti noodles instead and I was far from disappointed. The sauce that it was cooked in is hard to describe, but it was sweet and tangy and really reminded me of what I think orange chicken from your favorite Chinese restaurant might taste like. Both dishes I would easily order again or recommend to someone coming for their first time. My experience at Vapianos was a very enjoyable one, and they are well deserving of a 5-star review, but I'm going with a strong 4.6 because consistency between dishes were very noticeable. There were two orders of chicken alfredo at our table, but cooked by two different chefs, and it was very clear one was better than the other. The difference wasn't as noticeable with the pollo picante, but there was still a slight difference between the two dishes prepared by those two different chefs. For anyone living or visiting the area, it is imperative Vapianos be at the top of your list of restaurants to dine at. Visited 1 May 2023

The antipasti plate was well made with a wide variety of items. Our main dishes were made in front of us with any customized ingredients we wished. Pasta was cooked perfectly and lasagna, even though pre made, was enhanced with extra cheese. The only downside to this "fresh made to order" concept was the wait staff. We were an intrusion on his day and made is life harder by being here. Don't come expecting good service but come for good food.
