Il Valentino -pizzeria Pasquale Fabio Selvaggio

General As part of the birthday present, I invited my mom to the Italian, she had been in charge and opted for the small pizzeria Il Valentino in the city centre. Location Park situation Near the city centre you get to Pizzeria in the Herzogstraße by a side street, although you can park badly here, but you can travel well with the Öffis. The restaurant is located on a corner opposite a hairdresser. Thus, when waiting for food, you can also observe people cutting in the hair. Ambience The Il Valentino is two-storey, in the entrance area below just seems to have been converted a pub. On the right is the large wooden counter with marble plate, on the left there is a long bench with red upholstery and semi-high wood panelling, here are also the windows. In front of the counter is a huge wood oven from which you can also get its delicious pizza. Rather unusual in the guest room, but it doesn't bother. The counter is waiting with a large gastro coffee machine and some spirits. The tables are held in the same dark wood as the counter and fit to the long, red upholstered bench The walls have been embellished in red wiping technology. Current highlights of the map are presented on several slate boards. Everything seems simple. Here you can go after a day of shopping in the city. I found it very simple and I don't really like the wiping technique on the walls. For a nice candlelight dinner I would choose something else. To our arrival, the guest room was a bit empty except a few tourists, as it was very early. As time progresses, the space filled noticeably. Some couples, or even single men, who gave themselves a little wine. For later hours, a reservation is certainly useful, as there are not many tables in the basement. In the upper floor there is enough space for a larger group. The floor is yellow and the furniture is back in brown wood with red upholstery. The walls are painted here in Mediterranean orange. We were served by a friendly young waitress. And once chose Aqua Panna 0,75 mL to 4,50 € and once white wine in the carafe 0.5 L to 13,50 €. Both were brought to our table well cooled flight. As an appetizer we chose Carpaccio at 8,50 €. The Carpaccio was of good quality, cut hauchfein and appealed with plenty of fresh rocket, balsamico and freshly planned parmesan. My mother likes to eat Carpaccio and was thrilled as she had eaten the same dish at another Italian in the same week much worse. To this was served a crushed bread and a pepper mill. As the main course, it should be pizza. You can also order the smaller variant with a diameter of 26 cm, which we can look at the side table (small pizzas of more than 30 cm! also should not regret. My mom wanted to make herself a little extraordinary and ordered: Pizza Bresaola (with smoked ham, rucola and parmesan at €7.50 and I chose the Pizza Fantasia (with mushrooms, spinach, minced meat and salami instead of ham at €6.90. Both pizzas were hot and very luxuriantly served the edge crispy, coated with sufficient but also not too much tomato sauce. We had the water in our mouth and so it tasted! Here the pizza tastes and the goods are fresh! I haven't eaten such a delicious pizza for a long time. In addition to the usual pizzas and pastries, there were also some meat dishes that would irritate me. Cleanliness The toilets are upstairs. There was nothing to complain about. Service PLV The whole family is still working with us and you can see that. You'll be kindly worried and you'll be asked if everything's okay. It's just given attention to whether the guests feel comfortable and that's why the restaurant is well visited. We thanked each other with a good tip. The PLV is very good, you can even take the pizza home for 1 € less. Here you can also spend a nice evening with little money. FAZIT The service, food and PLV are certainly the absolute plus points here. Unfortunately, the ambience is not so beautiful that one would organize a great celebration here. That's better. However, it is rewarded by friendliness and fresh products. My recommendation to go to downtown for a pizza or to spend an evening with the friend. We like to come back!

Cannot fault this pizzeria! Small and quaint, perfect for a date night. The service was attentive and the waiter was happy to translate everything as the menu wasn’t in English (of course we’re in Germany! . Our food was amazing and the pizza’s are HUGE! I took half of mine away in a box because I was stuffed. Drinks were great and it’s very good value for money! Would definitely return!

Even though the building was going through some renovations, the service was splendid. We reserved online and quickly received a confirmation. Our server was super nice and was fluent in English. The food arrived fairly quickly even though the place was packed. Food tasted fresh and traditional. Would recommend.

As my wife has a dairy intolerance we found it difficult to find meals for her in Cologne. We therefore ate most nights in this lovely little place which looks just like a bar but also has an upstairs room. They did lovely pizzas and spaghetti dishes and we had no problems. The staff were really great and friendly also spoke English. Very reasonable prices and easy to find just off the main shopping area and a ten min walk to the Dom. Thanks for looking after us.
