Cavallino

Reviewed By PleoneIlForestiero

Siamo andati in questo ristorante italiano, facendoci convincere anche dalle recensioni. Il locale è molto carino, costruzione antica con travi a vista, e accogliente. Il personale è molto simpatico. Abbiamo mangiato dei spaghetti piccanti, era una porzione abbondantissima e piccantissima da averci anestetizzato la lingua. La pasta è in stile svizzero. Per i più piccoli il menù a loro dedicato comprende anche una pallina di gelato gratis se finiscono tutto il piatto.

Forchetta D'Oro

Reviewed By Ottokar3

This one is special. It’s quite small, opens only two days a week and has a bathtub in the restroom. Add the rather improvised decoration, and from the moment you are welcomed by the incredible warm and friendly staff, you feel like you were invited in a private home for dinner. The menu is small and everything on it is subject to availability of the fresh ingredients. Surprisingly, this is not one of those Italian places that stick to the basics but do them extremely well, this place doesn’t bother with serving the basics (mostly). Instead they offer seafood, steak and highly imaginative vegetarian options (try the homemade tortelloni with gorgonzola-chicory stuffing and chanterelles). Long story short: the food is outstanding.This being Switzerland, the restaurant might not be exactly cheap by international standards. But considering the quality of the ingredients as well as the heart, soul and skill with which the food is prepared, you would be hard pressed to find better value for money in the region.Oh, and don’t forget the book a table: It’s small, popular and more often closed than not ;)

We had the Pizza Julia and Pizza Vegetariana. Both were delicious and cooked to perfection. The chilli oil was also the spiciest we have had in any restaurant - wow!Will certainly be returning and recommending to others.

Super Mario Ristorante Pizzeria

Reviewed By SarahChh

SuperMario pizza is really delicious, the choice is very wide and the prices are very good. In the menu you can find every possible flavour combination.The staff is always very kind and friendly.Super Mario has a really convenient offer for students, every take away pizza costs only 10 swiss francs to take away.Since I am a student and I live close to the restaurant I am very often taking their delicious pizza also when I have group works with university peers.I will continue to visit this nice restaurant!

Restaurant Kolosseum

Reviewed By marcolX4708ZN

I came here with some colleagues from work. The place is nice and the staff in particular was very friendly and attentive. They really make you feel like in a warmhearted Italian place. The waiter even offered us freshly cut Salami on the table. Great gesture! For lunch you can choose between three lunch menues (and besides this they also have "à la carte menues") for a very reasonable price inclusive salad. I ordered a Pizza Prosciutto which was ok. Not a top one but i think the place also looked more like a pasta place than a Pizzeria. My colleagues who ordered Pasta where very excited about their dishes. For sure I'll cone again to also try different menues.

We went to this restaurant for our new year eve dinner and the dining experience there was very enjoyable. Despite the fact that only set meal was offered that night, the choice of food, the quality and the quantity were satisfying. Staff were very attentive and their service was warm and helpful. The food was not pricey given this eventful night and we had a great dinner in this restaurant. Reservation is required and we highly recommend this restaurant to other travellers.

Recommended by the hotel (Sorell) we enjoyed an excellent dinner in a very cozy, busy and plenty of energy place.Very friendly, multilingual and fast staff. Food was delicious, good wine list and reasonable price. Maybe because it was packed, we found it a bit too noisy. Seems to be a very popular place in St.Gallen.

La Vigna

Reviewed By Benoit_Vinum

There is no doubt this is one of the best place if you want to eat italian in the area. The pasta's are truly delicious and like it always should be... like in Italy! The wine selection is very good but I'm always sad to see that even such a place that presents itself like a wine bar brings you the glass with the wine instead of pouring it in your glass at the table... so, if ever the waiter made a mistake and poured you an Orvieto instead of a Pinot Grigio you may be deceived or surprised by the wine you are actually drinking. I believe this is a real problem that can be seen worldwide except in NY where customers are aware and would never accept this. I don't say this did happen to us but I say that if you are a true serious wine bar you MUST pour the wine at the table with the bottle so that the customer can see it. That's a minimum request but it's a serious one. Waiters were very friendly; central location is perfect and the decoration all in wood is pretty charming with a fantastic choice of great wines by the bottle (and a lot of stunning Magnums!). It is a small but lovely restaurant. Prices are in accordance with the quality. So it's not cheap but it's right.
