Trattoria Da Paolo Munich

Delicious Sardinia

Stefan from Munich

""Trattoria Da Paolo" is a typical Italian restaurant in Munich, but real typical is not what you might expect... The owner is funny and the food excellent!"

If you look for a typical, traditional Italian restaurant, which fulfills all stereotypes, like offering Pizza and Spaghetti Bolognese, then you're wrong. Da Paolo is an exception, but it's still a traditional Italian restaurant. And yes you'll find some typical Italian items here, for example cookbooks, Sardinian wine, pictures of Italy and souvenirs and the atmosphere is warm and pleasant. So is the welcoming.

The owner spreads this funny and and charming South European spirit. After being seated, you get a hand written menu, with about ten to 15 different dishes with starters, fish or meat dishes and desserts. The menu changes every two weeks, so it's always a surprise going there for dinner, because you don't know what to expect. They are specialised in Sardinian food, because the owner is from Sardinia.

Sometimes it's difficult to choose, everything sounds so good. And, what a surprise, it's delicious. As a starter I had some homemade ravioli and as a main meal quail on red cabbage. Doesn't sound typical Italian and it isn't, it's even better. The Sardinian wine is very good as well.

But it's not cheap. All ingredients are fresh and if they run out of anything, they recommend another tasty option for you.

Please make a reservation before you go there. Have a funny and yummy evening (just for the guys: it's the best place for a romantic dinner!).

When I was 20 I started to work in a picture agency as a trainee, then I changed to an advertising agency as a picture researcher. After two years I went back to a picture agency specialised on the topics food and interior. There, I started as an editor and wrote lots of small articles about interior image series. After several years spent in the food industry, I started having my own restaurant. We are spec...
