fine italian food

4 Posted on 04 / 05 / 2013

At 'La Monella' you will find fine italian food in a vegetarian way and a lot of vegan options. It's a nice and cozy restaurant with super friendly staff.
In addition to the real lovely food you have a great selection of different sorts of wine.

To sum it up, it's a pleasant place to have dinner!

Pros: italian food, wine selection, homely

nothing special

The food you eat there, is the same food you can find in every Italian restaurant.
There is nothing special: pasta, vegetables etc... there are no alternative to the meat (I mean proteinic food such as legumes, Tofu etc..).
It's the most expansive restaurant I've ever been. 2 plates of pasta (26 euro), one plate with 2 little spoonful of antipasti (4 euro) and one with 6 spoonful (almost 9 euro). a bottle of water: 43 euro and empty belly.
Ok, good atmosphere, friendly staff and well presented plates, but it's not enough.
And you have to take the s-bahn to get there (add 2.8 euro per person).
I don't recommend it.

Pros: friendly staff
Cons: price

Ooh La La (Monella)

Beautiful restaurant, absolutely top class interior, very professional but friendly with an atmosphere of warm welcoming. This is a superb place delightfully arranged and presented. The food is delicious with huge vegan choice. We had aubergine bruschetta which were sublime followed by a spaghetti arrabiatta and pomodoro which were both amazing. The house white at 15 EUR went down extremely well. I would suggest going here for a meal if you happen to be in Hamburg especially if Italian is a favourite of yours. It's run by Italians and they make you feel at home.

Pros: staff, food, interior

Nothing special

3 Posted on 12 / 02 / 2010

We were attracted by the news that it was a vegetarian restaurant with good gluten-free options, but in the end my girlfriend had to settle for a risotto, because the gluten free pasta was not home made and could not be applied in all dishes. Myself being vegan, there was not a lot of choice, so I had apasta with tomato sauce.
In the end we left a little bit disappointed, though the food was good, we didn't feel it was so much better than what we make at home.

Not recommended for vegans or gluten free vegetarians, but maybe the place for vegetarians who love Italian food.

Pros: nice staff
Cons: few vegan options, fewer gluten free options than expected

Italian moments in Hambug

If you visit Hamburg and you're hungry, you cannot miss this nice and cosy restaurant in one of the best Hamburg's neighborhoods. No matter if you are vegetarian or not, you'll fall in love with "La Monella" food. I had selfmade Ravioli with Mushrooms in Parmesansauce, a dream, and my boyfriend had a pizza....sooooo delicious!Wine was also good and the desserts were just awesome...tiramisu and pannacotta..so yummy!!!!And the people who work tehre, so crazy and funny..simply Italian!!!
