L'osteria - Mannheim

We had reserved a week in advance, there should be a nice lunch break with colleagues. The e-mail” was uncomplicated and relatively unscrupulous. On that day we arrived and turned to the cult. We were assigned a table that was not covered. Nevertheless, the place was quite fit, with the space distance on the bank already being a little narrow. Also we sat quite pressed between theke and window. The location owes, not otherwise the place is considered to be one of the most beautiful in Europe, just here are the rental prices for commercial usable units in Mannheim astronotic high, so that almost only chains can afford this exclusive location on the water tower. Yes, we see the water tower, but we don't see the menu yet, we have to wait. The L 'Osteria is a well-known chain, Franchise is the magic word. The owners of the branches save themselves the marketing costs, which is assumed by the founder of the brand. For this, the figures must be correct, because the franchise is allowed to transfer a certain amount (usually 7% of turnover) to the founder as a delivery fee, not to forget the mean six-digit entry fee. We'll get the card after a little break. The service draws us attention to the “Specials”, I study the map. But we are here because of the lunch table offer from the homepage. On request there is no one, there are “daily dishes” and the card. The dishes do not take anything, up from 9 euros. Many dishes cost between 12 and 15 euros, especially if it should go fast and is in front of the simple food intake, I find it a bit overrated. But good, to the Collini Center it feels only 300 meters, that's too bad. My office mate decides for the daily special Gnocchi (fresh) with saffron, our boss takes ne pizza, the two ladies choose Pasta Fresca with fish and a lasagna. On the homepage it is aroused that a new age enters Mannheim. Fresh pasta like the “Mama” (I already had in Berlin), I had little-no hope, because my mother could cook a lot, just not. As a liquid food, various soft drinks are ordered, the boss and my one choose a bright one from the barrel. First the drinks came, then the ordered dishes. Do my mother really stand in the kitchen? Much too big pizza, that doesn't make fun It was much too big, the saucer was too small, with the advantage that the pizza floor got cold pretty quickly. Mass instead of great. I've tried the pizza dough scaryly blunt. The lasagna (not worth a picture) dept as much too much cheese, the lady was too fat. According to the map a fine bovine rout with red wine, béchamel sauce, cheese, Mozzarella, Grana Padano DOP. Well, well described, not so well implemented. Praise words from my colleague who ordered the Gnocchi. I was allowed to try, by far, the best dish at the table. The sauce probably Convenience (it formed an artificial skin layer), and I don't like to burn my hand if the really fresh gnocchi were. They were too solid and too uniform. Cut the potato dough freshly with the fork and put in shape looks different. Similar to Orecchiette di Manzo al Limone, lovingly executed, totally overcrowded to my court. Whether I really saw the place of Limone in front of my eyes while I was allowed to go to work to look for the beef fillet strips? Al Limone standing for the lime in my court. I didn't taste, no lemon slices, no lemon slices, no juice. It would have been a good face to the sauce, the whole dish would not have been unconvinced in itself, as it is totally overcrowded. In the map standing “piccante” will not. The “i” bouncing the whole greenery upside down, I’m not a rodent that is made available to raw unprepared rocket. At least you could have snuck it a little bit, put it on the sauce. That was nothing. The most expensive dish with just 13 euros. At least. With such prices and such erroneous kitchen services, you will probably try to keep future guests in front of the restaurant. Conclusion: Pasta Fresca! By the way, I like to buy them from the fresh counter (250 grams of fresh pasta for 1.49). But they taste better with me 2-3 classes, so I don't have to give a new visit to the scene Pizzeria on the water tower anymore, the price of performance is just not right. For us no more alternative for the lunch break, not at all in the evening, where you can dip and turn off. No recommendation!!

Delicious pizza, fast delivery time and the driver was supernett!

The display of our inscription was displayed quite wrong on the map, after which the poor supplier had to run around for over 10 minutes until he had found the right address. despite the explicit order without cheese came a pizza with cheese.

The foods were delivered to the supplier 15 minutes after the order. the delivery has taken over an hour. when the supplier was addressed to the commentary “that is not my problem”. the food was accordingly cold.

We had ordered pizzas and noodles. the pizzas arrived cold and a drink was forgotten to deliver. tasty, but unfortunately cold. that's why only 3 stars were eaten. delivery came on time.
