👍👍 Very small restaurant with only a few tables and a small changing menu. A beautiful old building in the Luisenviertel. The tables are close together, but that didn't bother us. If that bothers you, I recommend going out to eat right at 6 p.m. Be sure to reserve in advance!!!! You can also order a me...

    Excellent diner at San Leo in Wuppertal. Perfect quality at a moderate price and friendly service in an intimate location in the Luisenviertel.

    Very small restaurant with only a few tables and a small changing menu. A beautiful old building in the Luisenviertel. The tables are close together, but that didn't bother us. If that bothers you, I recommend going out to eat right at 6 p.m. Be sure to reserve in advance!!!! You can also order a menu with several courses a few days in advance. We felt very comfortable in this great atmosphere with high-quality food and top service.

    (Translated by Google) The best restaurant in Wuppertal and the surrounding area! For very special occasions (and if you like fish and want to try everything) the menu is recommended - each course better than the last, and wishes and allergies are asked beforehand. But the premises are tiny - be sure to call/reserve in advance... (Original) Das beste Restaurant in Wuppertal und Umgebung! Für ganz besondere Anlässe (und wenn man Fisch mag und alles mal probieren möchte) ist das Menü zu empfehlen - jeder Gang besser als der vorherige, und Wünsche und Allergien werden vorher abgefragt. Aber die Räumlichkeiten sind winzig - unbedingt vorher anrufen/reservieren...

    (Translated by Google) The service was underground. I have never experienced such bad service, the plates were thrown onto the table, so that a glass and a fork flew off the table. The waiter kept ramming the chair I was sitting on...completely gross motor. We sat in front of empty glasses for a long time. The waiter seemed completely overwhelmed. The food was O.K. , we have eaten much better. Conclusion: We cannot recommend the restaurant at all (Original) Der Service war unterirdisch.Ich hab noch nie so einen schlechten Service erlebt, die Teller wurden einem auf den Tisch gedonnert, so das ein Glas vom Tisch flog und eine Gabel. Der Kellner hat ständig den Stuhl auf dem ich saß gerammt…komplett grobmotorisch. Wir saßen lange vor leeren Gläsern. Der Kellner kam mir komplett überfordert vor. Das Essen war O.K. , wir haben schon viel besser gegessen. Fazit: Wir können das Restaurant gar nicht empfehlen

    (Translated by Google) We have been going to this small restaurant for several years, which consistently offers excellent dishes with consistently high quality. We recommend the menu. It contains many small treasures up to the main course and a fantastic dessert. The red wines are also excellent. We can recommend this restaurant with a clear conscience. :-) (Original) Wir gehen schon seit mehreren Jahren in dieses kleine Restaurant, das durchweg bei gleichbleibend hoher Qualität vorzügliche Gerichte anbietet. Wir empfehlen das Menü. Es enthält viele kleine Kostbarkeiten bis hin zum Hauptgericht und einer fantastischen Nachspeise. Auch die Rotweine sind vorzüglich. Guten Gewissens können wir dieses Restaurant empfehlen. :-)

    (Translated by Google) One of the best restaurants far and wide! Special cuisine and still originally Italian. There is an excellent menu which I particularly recommend. The only point of criticism would be the somewhat uncomfortable seating, after all one likes to stay seated with a glass of wine. We'll be back! (Original) Eins der besten Restaurants weit und breit! Besondere Küche und dennoch ursprünglich italienisch. Es gibt ein ausgezeichnetes Menü,das empfehle ich besonders. Einziger Kritikpunkt wäre die etwas unbequemen Sitzgelegenheiten, schliesslich bleibt man gerne noch bei einem Wein sitzen. Gerne kommen wir wieder!

    We were there at the weekend on the express recommendation of a local who has known the owner for many years and was only able to get a table at short notice. Otherwise the waiting time will probably be several weeks. Touted as the "best Italian", the ambience initially surprised us a little, not to say frightened us. In a small, very simple (not to say unadorned) space there are rocky tables for around 18, perhaps a maximum of 20 guests. Comfortable and beautiful are different, but that quickly became a minor matter. A menu of 15 courses ensured complete enthusiasm. Small snacks, usually eaten in just one bite, made me initially doubt whether I would be full - spoiler: yes, I was, very much so! Fish and seafood came to the table in quick succession and in a wide variety of variations, as well as well-known classics such as vitello tonnato, burrata, a sorbet, a raviolo with truffle, finally steak and veal rolls with asparagus and a wonderful dessert with many lovingly prepared components. Actually, I'm more of a rustic type who devours a huge mountain of meat at a Greek restaurant, or who needs a good schnitzel with a double portion of fried potatoes to fill me up... but this menu, this way of eating was a wonderful change that I didn't know that before. With a menu price of 79 euros plus drinks, it's not something for every day, but something worth enjoying on a special occasion. The price is absolutely justified. The service is warm and friendly, you immediately feel welcome. I deducted one star for the ambience, which, according to the praises of my friends, didn't meet my expectations (spacious, stylish, cloth napkins...) - but maybe I just didn't understand the concept and should consciously feel like I was at the kitchen table of an Italian mom? No offense ;) However, there is absolutely nothing to complain about about the food itself or the value for money; I would even give it 6 or 7 stars if that were possible!

    It was really a nice cozy spot. The Steak was perfectly well done & the suggested wine a nice fitted in tast :-)

    The food was very disappointing and I'll start with the negative. We opted for the course menu and shared small portions. The taste got worse and worse, so we didn't eat the entire menu. We then asked for the bill amount and couldn't believe it. 168€ for a course menu which we mostly shared and two bottles of water. We then politely asked for a discount because we didn't eat everything and some of it wasn't tasty. The chef seemed offended and said it wasn't his problem and there was no discount. On the positive side, the staff was very friendly. We are very disappointed and would have liked some accommodation. I can't recommend this place more.

    Das Essen im San Leo ist klasse. Wir hatten das Menü, jeder Gang war ein Genuss. Die Vielfalt ist unglaublich... hier ist essen ein Erlebnis. Schön! Die Atmosphäre im kleinen Gastraum ist gemütlich, beinahe familiär. Der Service ist nett und entspannt. Auch die Weinkarte ist zu empfehlen.Ich freue mich schon auf das nächste Mal.

    Person who answered the phone was very impolite and didn't speak English. I expected otherwise for a restaurant with good reviews.
