In Los Angeles a salon pasta would come with little salmon pieces. Here the pasta came with 2 generous sizes of salmon and it was so good! The pizzas were amazing and large size. Made in a classic clay-like pizza oven, the dough was tasty and ingredients were fresh. We all left extremely full. Prices were low to me for what we got plus beer our bill was cheap. If you're in Köln and looking for a nice night out for Italian food then come here. Been around Köln for 5 weeks and this was the best restaurant here. I suggest making reservations ahead of time. Someone else said it on here so I did it. It was full the whole night. It's worth it to come here!

Trying to find an Italian in Cologne that has free tables on a late call, turned out to be a real…read morechallenge. After passing by a couple of Italian restaurants in Cologne, and calling a couple others, I had to settle down at this one, a quite hidden one I have to say, though it is in a really good location. The place is much bigger than it looks from outside, however a bit to many tables for the place they have inside. The atmosphere is really nice inside, and they also offer bigger tables, just perfect for bigger groups. The pastas are nicely prepared, and tasty, however I already had better pizza in my life, so maybe not the best place for the ones of you who fancy a great pizza. Wine selection is good enough, and the prices are OK for the place. Service is almost perfect, depends of course on your expectations. All in one, it turned out to be a good emergency solution. So if you want a good pasta, and don't want to give out a lot of money, this is your place.

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.

Die Begeisterung kann ich nur bedingt teilen. Bisher war ich zweimal da und es war einfach super…read moreund einmal schlecht. Das erste mal war es angenehm: ein netter Kellner, das Essen wurde verhältnismäßig schnell geliefert und war lecker. Beim zweiten Besuch wollten mein Begleiter und ich uns draußen an den Rand setzen. Ich muss zugeben, es war ein 6er Tisch, aber es war auch noch genug anderer Platz da. So steht ein schlecht gelaunter Koch oder Kellner (es war nicht so genau zu erkennen) in der Tür des Restaurants und fordert uns in einer unangebrachten Lautstärke und auch Wortwahl auf, uns nicht an einen so großen Tisch zu setzen. Selbstverständlich sorgte seine Ansprache dafür, dass wir von allen Gästen angeglotzt wurden, was irgendwie nicht angebracht ist. Warum wir nicht gegangen sind? Der Hunger war es und auch das gute Essen. Übrigens setzte sich eine dreier Gruppe an den 6er. Wir setzten uns an einen anderen Tisch, wurden von einer freundlichen Kellnerin bedient, mussten dann aber doch 40 Minuten auf Pasta warten. Wir hatten unterschiedliche Pastasorten bestellt, aber dann doch beide die gleiche bekommen. Nachdem wir so lange auf das Essen gewartet hatten (in der Zeit hätte ich es auch selber zu Hause kochen können), verzichteten wir auf eine Richtigstellung. Zusammenfassend: das Essen ist gut und preiswert, aber mit viel Zeit im Gepäck und der Chance auf unfreundliche Behandlung kann man im St. Angelo essen. Schade.

We made a good decision because the food was good! Sitting outside in the square was nice and offered up ample people watching opportunities. The pasta was good! The pizza at other tables looked like it was very very VERY thin crust, so if that's your thing you'd probably enjoy. Like everywhere in Cologne the beer was cheap and tasty. Good pasta, good beer - worth going back to!

It's managed by a charming gentleman who greeted me warmly and even though they had no table available (and certainly not one he was going to give up for just one person) he sat me at the bar, gave me a drink and the menu and made sure I was quite happy until a small table opened up. For my appetizer I choose my favorite dish of roast beef carpaccio which was truly delicious and perfectly partnered with a glass of their many wines. Of course with plenty of bread served with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. The menus are available via a number of blackboards which together with the stone pillars, cozy feel and Italian waiters and waitresses (who speak Italian, English, German, Turkish and probably more) all add to the rustic, authentic and welcoming feel of the restaurant. My main dish of pasta was equally delicious with ham and cheese mmmm. Plus a glass of red wine that he opened specifically for me (not from the 'open wine' menu). Coming from the US, I appreciated the attentiveness of the staff without the pushiness you often experience in the US, they truly would have been ok with me occupying the table for the whole night. All in all a truly enjoyable experience. I will definitely be back next time that I am in Cologne.

Als ich nachfragte stellte sich heraus, dass er es sehr wohl ist, nur eben ohne den üblichen Akzent! Ist es nun schlimm, wenn ein Italiener in der Schule gut aufgepasst hat, und seine Sprachen vernünftig gelernt hat?! Ausserdem finde ich es hier wirklich italienisch, mehr als bei einem in Deutschland geborenen, mit Akzent sprechendem Sahne/Gouda/Barilla Italiener! Hier fährt man zu Messen, kennt die Produkte und importiert alles selber. Wir hatten Gelegenheit uns etwas länger mit den Betreibern zu unterhalten, und Einblicke zu bekommen, die weit über die üblichen 08/15 Klischees hinausgehen. Schönes Ambiente, hochwertige Produkte (Bio-Parmaschinken usw) und echtes Italien, auch das ohne Akzent!

Only about 15-20 spaces in the entire restaurant. Not good for children. Good for a romantic dinner.
