After two days of eating bland German food, we needed a kick to our palate. One can only eat…read morewiener-schnitzel for so long. A day of sight seeing in Köln rendered us tired and hungry. On the strip of Hohenzollernring where there is a different type of restaurants every 10 feet, Buon Giorno cafe caught our eye... mainly because of the vast outdoor seating and the enticing smell of pizza. There was no hesitation after looking at their menu, unlike the other places we walked by (what is that godawful Korean-Chinese buffet place anyway??) The man ordered a Quattro Stagioni and I ordered a Peperoni pizza. We devoured them like rabid beasts. Simply spectacular. A bottle of Chianti and two pizzas later these two hungry homos were happy and sated. Gut! Sehr Gut!! P.S Opens for breakfast at 7:00. One of the few places in that area that serves a full breakfast.

Pretty good Italian place with English menu…read more The Minestrone soup is not that good and far from authentic. The pizza is large and fresh and reasonably priced. The restaurant is very busy but they work fast. The menu is large with every type of pizza you could want on it. The location is great and easy to get to. There is a small dining room and large outdoor patio seating with good people watching. If you are looking for something familiar and don't want fast food, this is it.

Stopped here about 3pm on a Thursday. In Europe, it is hard to find a place which has the kitchen…read moreopen between the hours of 2pm and 7pm. We were hungry after a long travel day, we used Yelp's "open now" feature to assist us, but some restaurants were in fact open but we discovered their kitchens were closed. This was the first restaurant where the kitchen was open as we walked from our hotel. The menu was difficult to read when you don't speak the language but Google translate did help. As expected, the place was not very busy since it was mid-afternoon. We were seated promptly and ordered Kolsch beer, locally brewed in Cologne and water. The place appeared to be clean and the food came in a timely fashion. All of our meals were good, not great. We also never did get the water we ordered. We had to ask for the check and were told they do not take credit cards. We were not prepared for that. Luckily, we had enough cash and they were willing to exhange American dollars to Euro so we could pay. Overall it was a good experience, but just average.

This is quite a rizzy place that bespeaks a certain gourmand timbre. You really do get an Italian…read moreenergy with the manic enthusiasm that seems to buttress the place. The fresh meat and fish is on display as one enters the place (which is usually very busy). The menu is very extensive - with a speciality in fish, but also other things. Everything is carefully sourced, prepared, blended - venison, scottish salmon, truffles, and wonderful mushrooms are staples of the menu, having been 3 or 4 times now. The wine list is varied and the staff unstintingly friendly. Not a cheap, generic place, but the expense has never felt unjustified given the care, finesse and heterogeneity that define this place.

Let's start with the positive aspects: they really use hight quality raw ingredients: tomatoes, oil and mozzarella are very good!! A bravo for your shopping choice!! now let's talk about the pizza dough ... it's one of the worst I have tried in my life: soft, gummy even when it's hot, uncooked ... simply terrible! The 1st time I thought was a mistake ... after 4 different tries I sadly have to confirm. I will for sure carry on trying every now and then!!

You can find better pizzas easily in many places around Cologne. By the way, the crust looks good but was soggy, a bit to much burned on the bottom so too bitter.
