Casa Luigi on Hohe Straße is much more than a classic Italian restaurant. The name of the restaurant in Carlstadt alone sounds like a friendly invitation, and in fact, you can quickly feel at home - or rather, like you're in Italy - in the restaurant, which opened in 1997.
Gianluigi De Maio, owner and host, welcomes his guests with open arms. The aroma of homemade pasta wafts from the equally open kitchen. And when the sun is shining, the Mediterranean terrace in the inner courtyard beckons. La Dolce Vita in Düsseldorf. The menu, which is updated daily, impresses with exquisite dishes made from fresh ingredients. A constant highlight: the homemade gnocchi with prawns and pistachios. The combination of tender gnocchi, juicy prawns and the nutty, earthy flavour of pistachios tastes particularly good after a colourful antipasti platter.
