La Fontanina - Gilching

I travelled from Italy to Germany for a work transfer at DLR Obferf. for 2 weeks. During this time, I ate at different restaurants (in Munich centre and around , but when I discovered La Fontanina , I appreciated a lot the quality of the food, the quantity of each course, the kindness of the owner, the professionalism of waiters. To highlight the quality/price ratio is very high. I am talking as Italian, and I know if an Italian Course is correctly served or not. In addition, La Fontanina proposes a large menu, but each week, a given selection of courses is offered at lower price with respect to the base price, so it is possible of getting special courses at very low prices, without losing the quality of the Italian food. Furthermore, if you take a first course like Spaghetti, you also receives an additional soup or salad for free, like you prefer. All the staff was kind and available for any request. I also appreciated the wines and beers selection. On next transfer, I will know where to eat : Grazie davvero, sono orgoglioso che esistono ristoratori italiani che rendono merito alla cucina Italiana all 'estero. Ci tornerò sicuramente!!! UPDATE On the last visit on 2022, the quality was not as the one I found on my previous travel. I was suprised mainly on the final cost, because the waiter gave us a menu in German language (even he knew that we were Italian as a flying sheet and there was a price on main and on second courses. When we went to pay, the costs were higher than the ones expected and reported on the sheet. The waiter explained us that on the sheet several sentences (in German and we did not speak German said that the costs observed were only valid at lunch (not for dinner . For dinner another menu was applied. So my doubt; why for a dinner did he give me a menu with several costs when this was not valid for dinner... mmmm? This was not gentle for me. Furthermore, the quality was lower than the one on my first visit, I do not know why. Concluding, La Fontanina is for me a medium-quality restaurant, valid for a lunch some times. But for an ordinary restaurant, where you can eat with higher frequency, I would like to suggest other ones.

I used to eat pizza a lot here, it is not bad at all, at least compared to what you can find nearby. However, I have noticed that every time I eat here I need to drink lots and lots of water and cannot stop being thirsty. They probably use lots of salt. I stopped eating here.

Very tasty pizza and lasagna. Good prices. I will come back.

I've now been a couple of times here, mostly because my prefered italian was closed on that day of the week. The Staff is very friendly but serves extreamly slow, the food is of good quality but the pizzas are too fat.

Chef has always new ideas in his daily menu. Pizza is outstanding and you can watch the pizza guy doing his job, as the oven is right in the public area. Small restaurant (they added the store right next to it and knocked down the wall some years ago.
