Bella Napoli

Utilised this restaurant when staying in the nearby Mercure and not wanting to eat in the hotel restaurant. It’s situated in the fairly sleepy village of Traar north of Krefeld. There’s not a great deal going on in Traar and this looked the best bet from a quick scout round of the available eating establishments and a quick use of the near me now trip advisor feature..I entered fairly early on a Tuesday evening around 7.00PM and although there was only a couple of tables in operation at that time I was shown to a double close to the door. When I asked to sit elsewhere I was told the rest of the restaurant was fully booked. I initially thought this was a fob off for a solo tourist but owed the restaurant an apology an hour later when it had filled up with locals and people without reservations were being turned away. For a place as sleepy as Traar I was impressed by this, as I also was by the food. I went for the mozzarella caprese to start which was very good with whole mozzarella balls, and then on the basis that the restaurant also ran a takeaway pizzeria from the room to the left of the restaurant, I went for one of the seafood Pizza’s which was also very good. The restaurant has a decent décor and old school Italian service levels and with two courses and a couple of Alt beers coming in well under 25 Euro’s I had nothing to complain about from my visit here.In normal circumstances I would rate this as a four star experience, but for the benefit of other lost souls staying in the isolated location of the Mercure hotel I will give it a five to act as a beacon to attract you also..

Absolutely delicious food. Risotto con asparagi as a starter, main course of my daughter was grilled fish and mine was australian beef, both were extremely good. The beef was saignant and had an awesome taste. Finally the semifreddo torroncino was a nice dessert. The Santa Cristina red wine was superb as well.

I am one of the regulars here, I just can state --> one of the best places in town - doesn't matter if a business dinner or one with your loved ones --> a fancy place to be ????????????

The food was a real delight with daily specials as well as traditional Italian menu! The veal satimbocca was delicious and the cassata a delight!

A cosy restaurant that features nice pasta but also great meat and fish dishes. Besides the standard menu they always have a lot of specials. Pricing is reasonable. Service is great. If you are local or just visiting you will not be disappointed.
