The 10 best Italian restaurants in Stuttgart

Whether with pizza, pasta or pesce, but certainly with dolce vita: Stuttgart celebrates the art of Italian cuisine with a variety of authentic kitchens from boot heel to shank. The Falstaff editorial team has put together Stuttgart's best Italian restaurants for you.

For many, Stuttgart's number one Italian restaurant. And Vincenzo Gorgoglione does indeed provide a taste sensation. Homemade ravioli and whole sea bass are accompanied by mature wines.

Rotebühlplatz 29, 70178 Stuttgart, Germany

Elegant ascent up one flight of stairs. Classic Italian division of labour between men (service) and women (kitchen). Beautiful dishes from the stone oven, small wine list up to Tignanello and Sassicaia.

Friedrichstraße 41, 70174 Stuttgart, Germany

In the rustic ambience of this family business, excellent pizzas are made in the stone oven. The kitchen also offers specialities away from the standard dishes, including lobster weeks. Good wines.

Gablenberger Hauptstraße 20, 70186 Stuttgart, Germany

Not far from the Schlossplatz, people like to show off and eat well. Many classics, but also weekly changing specialities, plus wines from all regions of Italy.

Kleiner Schloßplatz 11, 70173 Stuttgart, Germany

The location behind is not ideal, but the new restaurant is spectacularly staged with light installations by Tobias Rehberger. The cuisine can hold its own: tartar of sea bass with marinated artichoke hearts or gnocchi with duck ragout; attractive and delicious plates

Kesselstraße 29, 70327 Stuttgart, Germany

Gaishämmerstraße 14, 70186 Stuttgart, Germany

Nice large restaurant, where you can see and be seen, although not so easily heard with the high noise levels. The menu offers more classics than rarities; this also applies to the (open) wines.

Ludwigstr 77, 70197 Stuttgart, Germany

A very small restaurant with 30 seats in a living room atmosphere. The menu changes every two weeks and offers mainly Neapolitan pasta, fish and meat specialities. High quality bottled wines.

Dobelstraße 2, 70184 Stuttgart, Germany

Over 30 years of family tradition and yet always evolving. The menu offers homemade pasta, for example, and shrimp cakes or saddle of venison. Good wines, classic ambience.

Stuttgarter Straße 39, 70469 Stuttgart, Germany

Nice ristorante with large glass front located near the university and well visited by students and others. The menu offers all the classics that Italian fans love, including pizza and, of course, homemade dolci.

Geschwister-Scholl Str 3, 70174 Stuttgart, Germany
