What Dread Pirate dislikes about Pizzeria Da Cataldo:
Can't understand the positive recessions. Have food ordered to pick up. Restaurant is quite isolated on a farm, nothing for the eye. The musical underpainting suggests being next to you in the Dönerbude and not with an Italian. The food is okay, the pizza dough with corn flour or something was necessary for us. Pizza wasn't cut. Had taken a couple of beers, instead of asked two wheat there were Oettinger yeast. Lucki... View all feedback.

I would give 0 star but unfortunately this option is not available. We have seen the great reviews of this place and since we love pizza, we wanted to give it a try. Together with my wife and years old child, we drove tonight...from Strasbourg and arrived around hrs. We found a table straight away, although the place was superbusy. Actually in mins after we arrived, people were queuing at the entrance, which only shows how sought after this place is. Also, the atmosphere was good, lots of happy faces and good energy. That's when the disaster started. Firstly, we were seated at a big table alongside few other people, which we didn't mind, as we could see how full the place was. What was weird, was that waiters moved rows of customers from our table in minutes and we could see also other people raised from their tables in order to efficiently occupy the space to the maximum. Even though a little bit awkward, the atmosphere was friendly and the customers didn't seem bothered. We ordered beers one large and small, unfortunately being told that they don't serve small beers?! Ok, as I said everything was positive, so we didn't mind, we took two large beers, although my wife doesn't drink that much. We ordered two pizzas and could see ourselves still waiting after hour. Actually, at the one hour and minutes mark, I asked for another beer : they know what they are doing. Anyway, the atmosphere was still good and we didn't mind. After around and mins wait without being told when we ordered that the wait is that long, the pizzas arrived. Absolute shock! My wife's Vegetarian Pizza didn't have any mushrooms and my Quattro Stagione was actually a Duo Stagione only ham and olives!!!. No mushrooms, no artichokes. I was speechless. I wanted to speak to the waiter but I had to wait for another minutes till I could grab him, as he left pizzas and ran to other tables. I explained to him, he took the pizza, came back after minutes and admitted that they have no mushrooms but he could put artichokes and green peeper. Since I was exhausted by then, I said that's fine not a problem. Meanwhile, my wife and child were starving, they started to eat the pizza even if it was a Vegetarian with onions, peppers and mushrooms That was all! During my next wait another minutes I was wondering if they will make a new pizza or add ingredients to the old one? Even if the second option, I was saying in my mind that I will take it, I was pissed of at that moment. Of course, the second option was the chosen one, the waiter came back with same pizza I knew it as I started slicing it initially only on one side but what do you know?! the green peppers and artichokes were indeed abundant, however they were raw and the pizza was stone cold!!!! So what they did, they took it, threw the RAW VEGETABLES on it and brought it back! Without even heating it! I have to say that was the completion of my most disgusting dinner experience ever! I travel to so many places, not all my experiences were great but what happened tonight is beyond any imagination. The final shot was when we stood up, I took the pizza all the way to the kitchen, handed it in and advised that it was cold and vegetables raw and asked for the bill. I paid the bill and expressed my disgust toward this horrible experience toward the guy whom I was paying probably the master waiter ... who smiled very relaxed at me and said : I'm sorry! How can this be possible? It was the absolute humiliation. Their attitude was like 'we don't give a sh it about you, we have customers waiting in the queue to spend their money in here'. It is shocking, disgusting and incredible attitude. They might have thousands of customers but for sure they will not have me or my wife ever crossing their door. Even though many of the clients of this place are really happy, hence the reviews, I am sure that what happened to us tonight was not the first time or a mistake. That was despise towards the customers due to business doing too good

We visited this place while staying a night in Offenburg. We were pleasantly surprised. The staff was really friendly and welcoming although we did not speak German. We each had a pizza: it was delicious! The portions were very generous with fresh ingredients at a...fair price between and euros for the pizzas depending on the size small, big or XXL

We went looking for a good Italian place on our way though the area and this place popped up on TripAdvisor. The food was splendidly prepared, the staff did their best with limited english. What was truly surprising was that there was a person...brittish party at the large table and the staff were able to cater to them and all the other guests with seemingly few missteps. It was impressive to watch. So we got great food and a show. Absolutely recommended for anyone who enjoys proper Italian food

This was a pleasant surprise finding such good Italian food while visiting Germany. My litmus test for Italian fare is always lasagna Bolognese; and it was excellent. Served freshly made and piping hot, excellent flavor and content to the lasagna, and a generous portion size....My wife had their special, fresh muscles. She enjoyed them, but would have preferred a bit more character to the sauce they were served in the sauce was a plain white wine sauce. The pizza there is also very good, as another member of our party ordered that. Overall, it was a very pleasant dining experience and the food was certainly worthy of a return visit

Super food at super prices, the waiters are fleeting and friendly! Unfortunately, the ambience after modernization has lost a small charm. The cold white LED light is really unpleasant and you feel almost like in the practice of a doctor. Just one tip: Please change the LED lighting in warm white and put a few color accents, then feel much more comfortable! That's it!

Can't understand the positive recessions. Have food ordered to pick up. Restaurant is quite isolated on a farm, nothing for the eye. The musical underpainting suggests being next to you in the Dönerbude and not with an Italian. The food is okay, the pizza dough with corn flour or something was necessary for us. Pizza wasn't cut. Had taken a couple of beers, instead of asked two wheat there were Oettinger yeast. Luckily, they're just passing through here, the hunger has done its rest. Only to be recommended conditionally.

For over 20 years a family business. large selection of pizza, pasta, meat, fish, salads and fresh desserts like tiramisu, panna cotta, tartufo. what tastes great here is the saltimbocca alla romana. first a round cone and then a culinary treat. Mondays are quiet.
