In comparison with other (Italian) restaurants within a 20km radius Herr Tutto is only midrange. The quality varies a lot. We had a recommendable starter plate for 2p. For main, my wife went for a salad with ham. Although the ingredients were ok, everything was covered under the bitter taste of cheap olive oil. I went for a schnitzel (beef) with chips in Marsala sauce. Over all it was ok but not spectacular. I really complain about the drink policy. No offense on the waitress, she was very kind, friendly and mindful. However, when I ordered a new beer, I only got a new bottle and had to go with one glass over the evening. This is absolutely unacceptable and can be treated better.So, in the end Herr Tutto is a quite expensive restaurant with dishes of only mid range quality.

A very nice Italian (but not exclusively, definitely more than just pizza and pasta) restaurant. Not too fancy but also not too casual. Decent prices and good food. I personally recommend their deer (if it's the season for it obviously). Calling for reservation is recommended (but that's normal at most restaurants nowadays).

Really nice place with amazing food. This place was so many times recommended by my friends but I never had time to stop by. Today was the day. Fantastic pizza and this is said by a huge fan of this dish! I tried roasted potatos with meat and veggies - the way how it is serve makes my mouth dry:) Great service and acceptable prices are cherry on the pie. Good job!

Small town in Germany is a home to one of the best Italian restaurants. It has great service, no matter what language you speak, eventually we got really mixed up and ended speaking German, English and Italian all at once. Dishes are nicely sized, food is fresh, tasty and very Italian in taste and character. In addition to the menu items they have specials written on the board and those tend to disappear quickly. One of my favorite dishes were porcini risotto and insalata di mare (seafood salad). To round off the meal coffee is mandatory and their espresso is fabulous! A little italian gem in German countryside.

We have enjoyed every meal we've had at Il Genio. The food is fresh and delicious and the service is wonderful. Eating here has become a Sunday tradition for me and my husband, it's that good. The pizza is fantastic but we enjoy the pasta dishes even more. We try something new each week and we're always impressed. If you're in the area, you should definitely give Il Genio a try, you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic restaurant...We've been here several times and I must say they serve freshly prepared & authentic Italian food for a reasonable price and the quality is always good! We absolutely loved every single dish; delicious shrimp salad for starter or pasta with seashells, pasta seafood, pizza with spicy sausages and vegetables, calzone and the delicious gnocchi with sun-dried tomatoes, pesto and spicy cheese... oh and the Pasta Dello Chef is too die for...Sooo Yummy! The local house wine is also very good and very fairly priced...also the 0.5 Ltr. Erdinger beer for just 3,50 is a absolute joke! And when you ask for the bill, you always get a extra treat...a glass of sambuca, grappa or ammaratto...they really do like to pay good attention to good service. I can highly recommend this restaurant!Extra Note; We always ask for a seat in the middle section, it's a lot more cozy and comfortable..... compared to the front of the restaurant..there it's a bit more noisy, less cozy and next to the bar en kitchen...you'll see ;-)

Great pizza made from fresh ingredients in clean kitchen. The place is small but nice and cosy. There is only two tables inside but most of orders are taken away. The service is very pleasant, you can talk with them in English, German and Italian. It was one of the best pizza I have ever eaten!!

This may be good for takeout or delivery. Eating in was not the best pizza I've have by any stretch.

The place was full but we were shown into the rear 'store' room complete with old bikes and cupboards and seated at a table. After what seemed too long a time they took our drinks order - I then had to chase them up for my Weis beer that they had forgotten to bring!. The lady of the house had a face like a wet weekend in Weathersfireld and a demeanour to match. We were moved into the main restaurant area. Waited an eternity to order food. They eventually brought over 2 small punnets of bread to tide us over. They delivered a pizza to a collegue that was obviously burnt and when we complained they insisted that it was 'the way it should be'. Eventually they replaced it. No more bread with the meal!. I ordered one beer....was given two and made to feel it was my fault! This from the same sour faced lady as before. Bit of a faff with the bill but that was language more than anything else. I have travelled the world and this is the worst service I have eved had. Needles to say I shall not return!

When we want/need an Italian food fix, we come to or take away from Il Genio, as it's the real deal. The staff speak Italian and German and some English, but the most important thing is the food is excellent. There's also enough space in the restaurant for larger groups. Highly recommended.
