Ristorante Taormina - Wuppertal

Wonderful Veg Pizza and Quadroni with Truffle sauce. Very friendly staff, they served bread with olives extra as a starter with drinks. Amazing Italian restaurant, would like to come here again :

The service and food quality was awesome.. I would love to visit this but it is extremely expensive for students... I will suggest they have to give some student offers . All in one awesome...

If a family has been leading an Italian Sicilian restaurant for 40 years without interruption in a German city, you can talk about a tradition of Italian Sicilians. Forty years in the same place, opposite the Wuppertal swimming pool and not even an ideal location, about 1.5 kilometers from the city. We haven't been here for a long time, of course it's not 40 years ago, but two or three years ago. We have entered, like before, always full. The atmosphere has changed to the advantage. No southern European tourists Kitsch, more purist and therefore contemporary. A friendly restaurant chef welcomed us. That he wore a very chic short black pants (to the knee, surprised us first, but not disturbed us. His figure allowed to wear this designer piece in the German summer. He accompanied us to our beautiful 2 he table in a side room of the restaurant 's. They used to say Separee. In Separee there were two more tables, and especially more to the guests there later. The table was beautifully covered, including flowers and an LED light cube. There was a pretty, black-haired female operation and gave us the cards. The offer made a careful impression. Of course, pasta, also pizzas, but also various beef fillets and something from the sea. There is also a daily map. The description of the dishes went over the standard Italian Sicilians. Everything seemed very creative. Either the Ragazzi in the kitchen understood their craft or they could sell well. We ordered the drinks that were served immediately. In the meantime, we had made our choice. The Antipasto Taormina (12, Euro a Person , Filetto de Manzo (Rinderfilet mit Stein Pilz, 29, Euro und die Gamberoni a la Taormina (Riesengarnelen mit Parmaschinken, 26, Euro) While we felt a bit loud when entering the restaurant, it was in Separee (but much quieter) The pretty blacks quickly appeared at the table and served black olives with a chillie pot and some bread. In fact, only ETWAS bread. If you cut a small piece of bread into four parts, then the ETWAS gives bread. That didn't bother me. Olives are not my case, but are consumed by Hasimausi. And pure bread without dips, no thanks. My view migrated to the two adjacent tables. Vatter, mother, plus son just before the end of the primary school, plus publisher's daughter of the type uh datt is here the pure cycling year. Hasimausi weinte to me, now nothing to say. I could not want it, but the black-haired beauty served the appetizers. First impression: WAU! No, it was not a mass that was served, but a presentation that was amazed. A food list had to be active in the kitchen. Salami slices were crushed on roses, like ham from parma. The buffalo mozarella balls rest in a bed of basil leaves. In addition, Bruschetta is covered with inlaid paprika and mushrooms that are more reminiscent of tar. It was remarkable that the bread had a much better quality than the previously served bread the olives. What the optics of this antipasto promised then also created a lot of fun in the mouth. My dear Italian Sicily, a thick compliment. Antipasto can throw many on the plate. That was quite different. A very good quality of products, beautifully presented. We were completely satisfied with the appetizers as well as with the very attentive service. Always present, always immediately a reaction to empty glasses and between 2 or 3 times the demand whether everything is okay. Now in advance of the main dishes I had some time to take care of the neighboring table (with eyes and ears). And O Wunder, Hasimausi did not speak out of her dissatisfaction. She was also surprised by the behaviour of the (big family on the side table. Many people remember the television family Flodder. The student with his left hand on his smartphone while he tried to interrogate spaghetti in his mouth with his right hand. Various experiments were repeated. Finally, he used a fork. All this was crowned by the fact that phones sound audible to us. Eben Video Games live and in color. The boring daughter kept her head deeper and deeper into the deep pasta plate to put the spaghetti in the mouth with a spoon. She called to her brother several times: you're annoying. All this did not bother the mother who also combined cell phones with food of her food. I didn't know this circus number yet. Eating at the same time and serving the phone is already artistic. Only Vatter caught the phone in between. No one was still on the table (big family words like DANKE compared to the service and for each beverage order the formulation ICH WILL was used instead of ICH MÖCHTE. But you can blame such children. No, because parents always pretend to behave in a restaurant. The behavioral conformity, thanks to the sky, the fillet and the shrimps were served. The daily supplements of both dishes consisted of a very fresh salad, with well-tuned Mediterranean vegetables. The fillet was of excellent meat quality and was served well in place as ordered medium. The garlic mushroom sauce was guaranteed to come out of the bag. She was freshly prepared, a pleasure. My look went to the record of Hasimausi. Four vulnerable large huge plates, half open, ready to eat. Where the shrimp could only be seen, they were wound with parmaschinks. So almost Surf Turf in the Sicilian version. By Hasimausi an unlimited praise. In other words, great. Dessert? Dolci from the country, which had to experience 64 governments since the end of World War II in 72 years, was never my case, just too sweet for me. And there's my proposal to improve the Ristorante Taormina. Why are there no cheese dessert listed on the map? Formaggio by Berlusconi, Fiat Ferrari and Eros with Ramazotti is a top class, especially as the buffalo mozarella on the appetizer already convinces. I could have asked Formaggio, but I didn't. Instead, we restricted ourselves to Grappa Espresso. What else was noticed: On the map of Ristorante Taormina, the ignorant guest will explain exactly what the different cooking levels for steaks (Rare, Medium Rare, Medium, Medium Well and Well Done mean. Surely there are still eaters who don't know exactly. But what we found very funny was the explanation for Well Done: WELL DONE is quite fried. You have ruined a piece of nature, but if you want it so, order it calmly. Our conclusion: The service works friendly, flott and was always present. Five stars. If we were still convinced with a cheese plate, the 5 stars would be unimaginable. But so completely convinced 4.5 stars. Five stars, please. The ambience is simple, but as good as possible. For 3.5 stars. And what is served on the plate is worth the money without restriction. Therefore for price/performance 5 stars. We were particularly pleased that the restaurant does not promise culinary (health services) but rather appeals to the guest on the map rather locally and honestly. grazia tante. ps 1. The rest of the audience was completely fine and far away from the family Flodder, who probably lost himself here. I think it was the exception here. ps 2. The two deposited images for the Ristorante Taormina here at GastroGuide seem to be old and do not reflect what served us.

We are very happy and on occasion we are happy to come back!

It is recommended that the food is very tasty and good quality, beautifully decorated. Portioning is not big. Desert is very nicely served and tastes excellent.
