The best street food venues of type "Italian Cuisine" in Germany
There really is no shortage of pizzerias in the cathedral city, but the Neapolitan pizzas here taste exceptionally good. Flavourful dough and super fresh, aromatic ingredients ensure pure bliss. What pizzaiolo Raffaele does differently remains his secret.
At Poelchaukamp, award-winning pizza chef Natalia Terracciano whirls the dough through the air: fluffy, matured for 28 hours, topped with classics or creatively with pear, gorgonzola and walnuts, truffle or scamorza, honey and lemon zest. Neapolitan pizza at its finest.
Pizza with a difference: the stylish Ehrenfeld bakery with the striking neon sign bakes crispy sourdough pizzas and rectangular Detroit-style tray bakes. The dough, dough method and baking style are a real display changer. Favourite: Double pepperoni with chilli honey. Really hot!
Benvenuto in Italia; host Salvatore Rimonti has been spoiling his guests with first-class dishes from classic Italian cuisine in a family atmosphere for over 40 years. The friendly service recommends the right wines from the well-stocked cellar.
A modern focaccia bar in the south of Cologne - with a lovely selection for a snack or more. The yeasted dough flatbreads, baked with plenty of olive oil, are topped with the highest quality ingredients and "crisped up" warm before serving, also available: deep-fried specialities.
Missing his beloved New York style pizza in Berlin, Jonathan Margulies opened his small restaurant Magic John's in Mitte in 2020. The menu includes classic margherita, truffle pizza, pizza with butternut squash topping or with vodka cream sauce and jalapeño.
Things are interactive at the Italian restaurant in the Rotebühlpassage. Guests first have to decide between pizza and pasta and then choose the ingredients. Artichokes or onions, mozzarella and salsiccia? Those with a sweet tooth can add a Nutella pizza.
There are many Neapolitan pizzerias. But the Calvello family really does come from the shadow of Mount Vesuvius. It's genuine, but above all it's delicious. Fluffy dough, a crust that makes you want to take a nap, and flavour! Rightly one of the top 50 in Europe.
For some Stuttgart locals, the best pizza in town is served nowhere else but here. Chef Nico Zingariello relies on classic ingredients - from fior di latte to SAVOURY salami and tuna - and knows that the dark bubbles on the pizza crust are a sign of quality.
Giuseppe and Luca Giugliano base their pizza creations on the recipes of their great-grandfathers from Naples. At Pizza Nostra in Prenzlauer Berg, you can enjoy authentic Neapolitan classics such as calzone, focaccia and pizza with burrata.
Stylish bar, velvety armchairs, golden oven - and pizza as if from Naples. With burrata, truffle, mortadella or salsiccia. Exciting: the "Pizza White" without tomatoes. A must-try: Truffle pizza. Served with Limoncello Spritz or Gin Basil Smash. That Italian feeling in Winterhude!
When it comes to Neapolitan pizza, there is no alternative to the Bestia. The dough - baked at 480 degrees for a maximum of 90 seconds - is tender and fluffy. The topping ingredients from Italy are of good quality. Particularly delicious: the white pizza with fior di latte, mortadella and pistachio pesto.
More than just an insider tip in a backyard: Salumeria Italiana impresses with its industrial-chic ambience, shelves full of authentic Italian delicacies to take home and the huge pizzas that you can eat on site. A culinary mini-vacation!.
Cold drinks, delicious Napoletana pizza and a lively neighbourhood atmosphere; the Büdchen am Südpark is a lively neighbourhood meeting place for young and old with the added bonus that you don't have to have good conversations here on an empty stomach. "Pizza Veganchen" for the win!
A candidate for a favourite restaurant, because the massive stone oven transforms the homemade sourdough into tender pizza, panini or bread with tinned sardines and fresh lemon juice. Served with home-made sour vegetables and a Cynar tonic? A strong performance!
This cosy restaurant serves the finest Italian home cooking. Everything is homemade with love, of course, using organic ingredients and original recipes. Pasta takes centre stage and is served in a variety of ways with excellent meat and fish.
Expand your pizza lexicon. Napoli Rush has creative pizzas, without much ado. The vegan "Chilli Padron", for example, comes with grilled bell peppers and garlic and turns your own body into a most enjoyable pizza oven!
First things first: Saluki is actually the name of a Persian greyhound. The best way to find out why the restaurant is called that is to ask on the spot while savouring the cuisine, with influences from Korea, Germany, Norway, China and Italy. Pretty good!
72 hours dough rest, 60 seconds oven time at 485 degrees: the pizza chain based in various cities also uses this formula to bake its Neapolitan dough flatbreads. The monthly pizzas can also be a little crazy. Pretty special: pasta in a pizza bowl.
The Napoletana pizza hype continues - even in this Cologne advert for the chain, which is known for its hip creations. If margherita, marinara and salami are too boring for you, try the specials: from "Royal Lobster" to "Vegan Beef Chimichurri", there's pretty much everything.
