    Love this place. When I'm in the mood for some really good pasta, this is the place to go. I can add anything I want and it'll be made exactly how I want it and the prices aren't too bad. I'll give this branch 3 stars because they're always running out of pasta in the evenings with 2-3 hours left before closing time. And you're forced to choose between ordering pizza, risotto or raviolis. Not cool.

    Delicious food. But the place is small and there are fewer food preparation sectors. It's a bit dark in the eating hall. The city has a much more pleasant and cozy Vapiano's, with a much more beautiful interior.

    (Translated by Google) With Vapiano I'm beginning to have doubts. I can't remember the last time I was in one of the restaurants and the order was as requested. Ordered three pizzas today, unfortunately one was forgotten. It should be ready after four minutes, after 15 minutes it was still not there. So subtract another star. - The pizza was then forgotten again, ultimately took more than 20 minutes, only 1 star remains. So basically I recommend a visit to Vapiano to L'Osteria. I have never had any problems there and it is not more expensive either. (Original) Bei Vapiano kommen mir allmählich Zweifel. Ich kann mich nicht erinnern, wann ich das letzte mal in einem der Restaurants gewesen bin, und die Bestellung war so wie gewünscht. Heute drei Pizzen bestellt, eine wurde leider vergessen. Die sollte dann nach vier Minuten fertig sein, nach 15 Minuten war sie immer noch nicht da. Ziehe also noch einen Stern ab. -- Die Pizza wurde dann nochmal vergessen, hat letztendlich mehr als 20 Minuten gedauert, bleibt nur noch 1 Stern. Ich empfehle mal so grundsätzlich, einen Vapiano-Besuch zu L'Osteria zu verlegen. Da hatte ich noch nie Probleme und teurer ist es da auch nicht.

    (Translated by Google) Absolutely full restaurant when you are here in the evening. We were assigned a table in the middle of a landing and people kept walking past us. This is absolutely not pleasant when eating and has been quite annoying. Everyone looks at the plates and walks very close to the tables. Maybe you should go there at less busy times. (Original) Absolut volles Restaurant, wenn man Abends hier ist. Uns wurde ein Tisch mitten auf einem Treppenabsatz zugewiesen und ständig liefen Leute an uns vorbei. Das ist absolut nicht angenehm beim Essen und hat und ziemlich genervt. Jeder schaut auf die Teller und läuft sehr nah an den Tischen vorbei. Vielleicht sollte man hier lieber zu weniger stark besuchten Zeiten hingehen.

    Great franchise for pasta lovers! Decently priced and very tasty. However, during the evening it might get a little big too crowded with long waiting lines.

  • 5/5 Ioannis R. 5 years ago on Google • 213 reviews
    Very tasty as expected! Cooking staff were friendly and efficient. We got Salmon carbonara with Zoodles made of zucchini and arrabiata. Both tasty!! Waiting time was a bit long and the ground floor tables can hold 6 people but a bit tight.

  • 3/5 Prashant C. 4 years ago on Google • 205 reviews
    Because of crowded location quality of service is impacted. We ordered two pastas and one pizza. Pizza was good. One pasta was horrible. Not mixed properly. There is sufficient space to sit for everyone. Place is not very clean. You can prefer to go to a Italian restaurant nearby instead.

    Kann generell nichts schlechtes über das Essen heute sagen! Alles war auf den Punkt. Generell bin ich immer recht kritisch bei Va Piano aber hier hatte ich mich heute wohl gefühlt.

  • 3/5 Miranda L. 5 years ago on Google • 120 reviews
    The taste of my pasta is good, but the spaghetti is soft and sticky, not too well-cooked. The food counter is a little slow and the service is normal. Overall an easy meal in the center of the tourist spot.

  • 4/5 Rodrigo H. 6 years ago on Google • 100 reviews
    Nice place. Good portion size, tasty and fresh enough for the price. Good pasta overall!

  • 2/5 Richard G. 4 years ago on Google • 72 reviews
    Food was tasty and fresh, made with good ingredients, but the standing in line was interminable. The staff would only take on a new order after completing the order before. Since each pasta prep took 10 minutes, with 4 people in the line in front of me, this meant a 40 minute wait to be served my mushroom risotto. Despite the tasty food, I would rather go to a traditional restaurant and spend my wait time seated, sipping a good glass of wine and pay about the same. In my opinion, Vapiano does not have a sustainable business model.

  • 2/5 Samuel K. 4 years ago on Google • 31 reviews
    Hell’s Kitchen. Rather than ordering your food and waiting for it at your table, you are required to stand in line until the food is cooked in front of you. After standing in line for over an hour I was very disappointed to see frozen pasta used. The pasta was hard. The chef was impolite.

    (Translated by Google) A disaster, I was on 17 February to 20:00 there, it was waited too much on pasta and risotto. I wanted to have lasagna, but they ran out. I let myself be seduced by advertising and ask for a salmon pizza. 2 minutes after ringing my beeper, the waitress announced that the salmon they ran out! Could she did not tell me before? In the end I had a chicken salad, but was disappointed that way. I did not because your waitress once ate dessert at the bar dessert in full service. Never seen! I do not recommend this Vapiano. (Original) Eine Katastrophe, ich war am 17. Februar gegen 20 Uhr dort, es wurde zu viel auf Pasta und Risotto gewartet. Ich wollte Lasagne haben, aber sie liefen aus. Ich lasse mich von der Werbung verführen und bitte um eine Lachspizza. 2 Minuten nachdem mein Piepser klingelt, gibt die Kellnerin bekannt, dass ihnen der Lachs ausgegangen ist! Könnte sie es mir nicht vorher gesagt haben? Am Ende hatte ich einen Hühnersalat, war aber so enttäuscht. Ich hatte nicht einmal Dessert, weil Ihre Kellnerin an der Bar Dessert in vollem Service aß. Noch nie gesehen! Ich empfehle diesen Vapiano nicht.

  • 1/5 Sasha F. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It's not nice if the pizza maker doesn't speak German and asks his Arab buddy (not employees) what "chicken" is. The buddy extends over the tick and points to the ham. Result: I get a pizza with ham and I can't even complain to the pizza maker because of the language barrier and "That's chicken!" the only thing he can say on my query. I am a friend of cultural diversity, but at least interprets pictures that you can communicate with the chefs. This is really the bottom drawer (Original) Es ist nicht schön, wenn der Pizzabäcker kein Deutsch kann und seinen arabischen Kumpel (nicht Mitarbeiter) fragt, was "Hähnchen" ist. Der Kumpel streckt sich über die Tecke und zeigt auf den Schincken. Ergebnis: ich bekomme eine Pizza mit Schinken und kann das beim Pizzabäcker nicht mal wirklich reklamieren, weil Sprachbarriere und "Das ist Hähnchen!" das einzige ist was er auf meine Rückfrage sagen kann. Ich bin ein Freund der kulturellen Vielfalt, aber legt zumindest Bilder aus, dass man sich mit den Köchen verständigen kann. Das ist echt unterste Schublade

    Awesome concept. Chef cook your meal right in front of you. Tasty!

  • 2/5 poorva s. 4 years ago on Google • 24 reviews
    My one star is for the ambience. It has a nice greenary with lots of real and artificial plants which is a treat for eyes after you have been in the hot sun for a while. One star is for their self service card, where each one gets a card at the entrance and you can order anything you want from the counters until 50 euro and you can pay when u check out. But the prime thing you want in a restaurant is tasty food. We were disappointed in that respect.we ordered two spagetti dishes which were undercooked and not tasting that good. Also the pizza we ordered under average. The person on the counter was irritated for some reason which I think he took out on undercooked spagetti. I may not visit this place again.

    Amazing food but very confusing if you don't know what you're doing and dont speak German/with someone German. Woman at the door could of been more welcoming and less judgemental....

    (Translated by Google) Service and quality were better a few years ago. However, the food is not inedible. Therefore 3 stars. Please improve the service! (Original) Service und Qualität waren vor ein paar Jahren besser. Allerdings ist das Essen nicht ungenießbar. Deshalb 3 Sterne. Service bitte unbedingt verbessern!

  • 2/5 Valerie L. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Average quality of the food (the onions for the tomato sauce burned several times, pizza black below, the salads are ok), unfriendly staff, often overcrowded and all overworked. Vapiano used to be better (Original) Durchschnittliche Qualität des Essens (schon mehrmals die Zwiebeln für die Tomatensauce verbrannt, Pizza unten schwarz, die Salate sind ok), unfreundliche Mitarbeiter, oft überfüllt und alle total überlastet. Vapiano war früher besser

    (Translated by Google) Had a César salad with chicken for just under € 13, so you can expect a certain freshness and quality. Unfortunately, that was not the case.
