Salumeria Italiana Italienische Feinkost

We had dinner here with friends last night and were unfortunately very disappointed. There were five of us and we had asked for a larger plate of starters unfortunately the selection was clearly not enough for five people. (Two slices of salami, two slices of ham, two pieces of cheese.. Unfortunately, the choice of bread for the starter was also nothing very dry and not fresh. We were even more excited about the pasta with the figs... Unfortunately not a highlight either. Very very small portion, the sauce was watery and unseasoned. Unfortunately, for €16.50/portion there is not enough love and taste. Such a shame because the menu sounded very promising. The Pinot Blanc was very tasty. We left the store a little disappointed and hungry. For €36 per person, we thought we would leave the restaurant full and satisfied and would be happy to come back.

Update September 2024: Unfortunately, the quality of the food has declined. We had to wait an hour for our main course on a virtually empty Saturday afternoon. Risotto with mussels that only tasted of celery and white wine and a lukewarm chanterelle lasagne on the side. The service was forgetful and unfortunately a bit clumsy throughout. We always enjoyed coming here, but unfortunately the salumeria has become worse on several levels. Old review: Here you cook with heart. And recommends with heart. And did I mention that it tastes excellent? An upscale restaurant in Leipzig whose quality I really appreciate. Thank you very much!

Nachdem wir zwanzig Minuten an einem nicht abgeräumten Tisch gesessen hatten, musste ich zur Kasse gehen und darum bitten, den Tisch endlich abzuräumen und vielleicht eine Speisekarte zu bringen. Die Chefin stand dabei völlig unbeteiligt und nicht sonderlich gastfreundlich daneben. Die Kellnerin fand schließlich die Zeit, um den Tisch abzuräumen und uns zu bedienen. Alles in allem kann ich den Hype um die angeblich so gute Pizza nicht nachvollziehen. Die Pizza war mittelmäßig, nicht gerade günstig und von durchschnittlicher Qualität. Leider war der Boden völlig durchnässt und matschig. Der Service lässt wirklich zu wünschen übrig, die Kellnerin könnte vielleicht einmal an einem Benimmkurs (wie man mit Gästen umgeht) teilnehmen. Wir waren nun einmal dort, müssen aber nicht wieder hingehen. Es gibt wesentlich bessere Alternativen mit viel besserem Service.

We actually wanted to eat somewhere else, but the other Italians were closing on Tuesday. That's why we spontaneously found this small restaurant via Google search. Google location wasn't entirely accurate as it was in a backyard. But once you find it everything is great. The food was super delicious. Absolute insider tip! The map isn't huge but what they have is of quality and also costs you. But no more than in other restaurants and in my opinion the quality is better. The ambience was also super nice inside. It's basically a delicatessen with a restaurant area. Both dishes were really delicious and also very filling (I'm a glutton)! I'll be going here more often now. Service was also good. It was a shame that they closed at 7 p.m. on Tuesdays, but despite showing up at 6 p.m. we still managed it easily and without being pushed. Ps: I'm not really an iced tea drinker and the combination sounded strange but it was also super tasty and recommended Thank you and good luck

It was a very nice evening. Our friends loved it and will definitely come back. Unfortunately I can only give you 5 points, you deserve 10. See you next time.
