La Galleria Italiana - Antipasti. - Italian Near Me - Berlin, BE

This is an amazing little Italian gem in Berlin! I lived in Italy for about 6 months and this food is up there with some of my favorites in Rome and Florence. We started with the anti pasta and it was great! Fresh cheese and salami and prosciutto and in season veggies! Absolutely perfect. I ordered the carbonara...I usually never order creamy pasta but this carbonara is off the charts. It's traditional, the pasta was cooked perfectly with the egg and prosciutto. It wasn't too heavy or creamy because they didn't have to add cream because the egg did it for them. I don't think I've had carbonara better! I highly recommend it!! My friend ordered the spinach ravioli and she is Italian and very particular about pasta and she was also in heaven. The pasta was fresh the dough was light and the spinach just made the ravioli a delight. Overall a great atmosphere, good service and great find. If you're in Berlin and you're craving great Italian food this is the place to go. I wish I lived closer because i would become a regular. read more

I may be a little picky with my pasta but I was NOT super satisfied with my meal here. The atmosphere is pretty good and the fact that it is family owned and has FREE water is nice but aside from that and the appetizer I got (proscuitto and melon) I felt this place could have been a lot better. I got some of their handmade pasta (the one with mushrooms) and it was very lacking in the flavor department and the mushrooms were so small I could barely get them on the fork. It was very creamy and I felt like something green was missing... maybe some other vegetables? I don't know. My friend got pasta with shrimp and she said the shrimp was a bit dry and her pasta was slightly cold. Mine was steaming so I am guessing they waited for my food to be ready and hers ended up cooling while it waited. We got apple shorle and juice which is pretty inexpensive for the glass they give you. The waitress was busy and un-attentive and seemed stressed and agitated at times. I don't know if it was a bad night at the place because this it seems to have great reviews from a lot of people but I was just a bit disappointed and have no plans on returning. Wish everything else was as great as the proscuitto melon was. read more

Came here for my anniversary with the husband on our trip to Berlin and this turned out to be a perfect spot. What a lovely restaurant. It was a bit cold out, but not too bad, so we sat outside. We were pretty much the only ones, but inside was a little too noisy for us and we wanted the fresh air. Service was wonderful and attentive, we didn't feel neglected being outside. The food was outstanding and exactly what we were looking for. read more

Had a really good lunch here. Very friendly price with fantastic food. The Crabonara was amazing.

First dinner in Berlin...spectacular!! Service? Awesome... one gal took care of everyone perfectly well. Ambiance? Amazing... just like being in Italy! Food?...I mean...Out of this world! We had the fettuccine with veal, chanterelles &... wait for it...FRESH TRUFFLES! OMG! An absolute flavor explosion!!!! Hubby had linguine with parmesan butter sauce and...FRESH TRUFFLES! Super yummy fresh bread... smooth spectacular panna cotta...and the best Chianti I've ever had. A lovely little place...a real treat. GO!! read more

This little Italian joint looks rather unassuming, but don't be fooled. I'd been craving home-made ravioli for a few weeks and when my lovely suggested this joint, I was stoked at the coincidence. And boy, this ravioli was STUNNING! With spinach sheets of pasta on one side, and regular on the other, they were just little pillows of orgasmic delight. Drenched in butter and sage, with a sprinkling of parmesan (oh man, my mouth is watering just at the memory again!) I almost couldn't finish the plate, I was savouring each morsel so slowly... And as a bonus, the staff are cute, and authentically Italian - I'd happily have come back day after day ;) read more

This is a cozy original italian food trattoria...much better than many restaurants you could find now a days in Rome, believe me! They have great options for lunch menus. Their dishes are very authentic, original, and simple with great quality ingredients. I've been there for lunch and dinner. For lunch I had the spaghettis with sausage and tomato sauce...delicious! They totally nailed it! For dinner I had the spaghetti carbonara with truffle oil, it was creamy without being too overwhelming, just perfect! Recommended! read more

Excellent choice for my husbands birthday dinner. The perfect blend of authentic charming atmosphere and exceptional food. We highly recommend the antipasti and ravioli marscapone. The chianti reserve was a nice compliment in flavor and price! We will return again during our stay in Berlin. read more

Utterly serviceable. Arugula salad generous, as was the pasta carbonara. Did I fall in love? No, but it hit the spot even if a bit boring. Service was great but there were only five diners (Sunday night after New Years). read more

We found this restaurant by chance and it was fantastic! Some of the best Italian food I've had outside of Italy. I visited in the summer and sat on their patio. Almost all of the tables were full but they were quick to clean the tables when someone left so it helped with turnover. The menu came in English and German, making it easy as a tourist to order (even though this was off the beaten path to find to some degree). They offered a wide variety of pasta dishes, I went for the pasta with chanterelle mushrooms and it was really good. Served with more of a tomato sauce instead of a creamy alfredo type sauce that I was expected. I was pleasantly surprised. They brought bread at the beginning of the meal and provided us free water. The service was good when we needed something but otherwise gave us space which was also appreciated. I definitely plan to go back next time I'm in Berlin! read more

My favorite Italian restaurant in Berlin. You feel like in Italia. The prices are very cheap for the neighborhood. The best dishes are for me the ravioli. The service are very nice with a nice italian accent ;) read more

The food is delicious. No matter if you're, like me, not a great fan of Italian food, this is crazy delicious. And those tiny portion will make you full but still craving for more. I'm amazed of the quality. It's very tiny, so better reserve a table. The service is ok, it's more of a "family/friends"-hospitality. Not that stuck in norms, they are friendly and nice. Although they could work out a smile once in a while. The rock classics playlist is not expected at a place like this, but it works well, it brings you in the mood. But why I wouldn't go all the way to a 5th star is that the music was...extremely loud...as I was there. And it wouldn't get any lower as the evening progressed.. read more

OMG Berlin ... aMaZiNg, really ... Quaint, delish, friendly and romantic! The food was fabulous, the service was suggestive and helpful, the ambiance exceeded all expectations. 2 Americans, a bottle of wine, casual yet sensual~ #tastebudsgoneCray read more

This place was a bit empty at 6:30, when we arrived, and we were a bit worried that it wouldn't be as good as we thought. But the waiter was really friendly and we got served really quickly since we were pretty much the only ones there. It filled up soon enough and was getting busy by the time we left. They brought us olives and fresh hot bread which were both great. I had the spaghetti bolognese and my mum had ravioli and both our dishes were AMAZING. Very flavourful, the spaghetti was perfectly cooked. The portions were really generous, we were very full by the end of the meal. Overall great meal! read more

This is a small restaurant on Torstrasse. They offer a good choice of italian pasta dishes. We went for the 2 daily specials, pasta with truffles and pasta with scampi. Both dishes were good, but not great. They somehow lacked a bit of bold flavours and left us a little disappointed. The prices for the regular pasta are very good, around 6 EUR, the daily specials were considerably more expensive around 15 EUR. Given the ingredients this is ok. I will go back there and try the anti pasti plates, they looked delicious. read more

This was the best Italian meal I've eaten outside of Italy. I was blown away. The service, atmosphere, wine, and food were all first rate. I wish I lived in Berlin, or at least close by, so I could enjoy it again. The next time I cross the country to visit Berlin, this will be a stop. I recommend a reservation for dinner, as this little place filled quickly. Luckily we made one for my birthday and I'm so pleased we did. read more

Really good pastas and antipasti. Some of the best Italian food I've eaten in Europe, including Italy.

Mediocre place at best. Appearance and taste wise. We had the tagliatelle with truffles and the pasta Siciliana. Both were not flavorful and made without love. Would not recommend as you can find much better in the area. read more

This rather small place but with a nice terrace in summer serves italian dishes at its best. I tried many italians this one is on the top of my list. Big portions, tasty dishes and very reasonable prices. Close to perfection ! read more

Bedienung sehr nett, Pasta ist wahnsinnig lecker. Leider alles ein bisschen eng und klein, aber die Qualität stimmt und es lohnt sich hier einen netten Abend zu verbringen. read more

Don't be fooled by the crowd. This is italian food designed for German people meaning big portions, cheap, and strong taste. If you are looking for authentic italian food, I would not recommend it. There are many better options around. read more
