Best restaurant in Tempelhof. We moved to Tempelhof 1.5 years ago and have fallen in love with this wonderful Italian restaurant. The staff are Sicilian, and every time we visit they are warm, thoughtful, and charming. The food is always delicious. The pizzas are outstanding (I like the Quattro Formaggio), the main dishes are large and tasty, and the daily specials are always a treat. The restaurant space is comfortable, not uppity, but classy and everything is reasonably priced. The restaurant is also extremely accommodating. We recently had a large group eat dinner here after our daughter's baptism and everything was perfect - even though we were late. They took such great care of us, our family, and our friends - and it became an unexpectedly big part of our special day. I can't say enough positive things about Trattoria Lauretta. I highly and emphatically recommend that you try it for yourself....

It came rather disappointing as none of the cheese from the wheel was melted into the pasta. They poured some kind of liquor into the wheel first and lit it on fire. I guess to melt the cheese beforehand but it didn't work when the pasta get to the wheel. They ended up having to scrape a few chunks of cheese onto the warm pasta which is soggy from the liquor. I would not recommend...
