"It should be pizza – of course a delicious salad before. A well-stocked, thinly baked, crispy pizza on the edge, well seasoned it may also be. This is how we – my enthusiasts and my avenue – imagined this and made us on the way to Königswinter, after Stieldorf – more precisely. Here's the Raiffeisenstraße, number 5, the Maruzzella, a Ristorante that we had visited years ago. But panta rhei – let's see how it tastes now! The ambience (4 stars ten minutes drive, and we stand in front of a three-storey, red-clinked, stately building, on whose ground floor the Russo family hosts its guests. Parking is usually not available at the Maruzzella, in front of the house is a wide park strip. The clinker construction is preceded by a spacious conservatory and also a fairly large terrace. Open the door, open the door, and we go, greeted by the padrone, in front of a counter into the guest room. The boss offers us a white covered table next to the entrance to the conservatory. We take place on comfortable high-resters covered with black artificial leather. We sit comfortably, more comfortable than in some Italian restaurants with vertical chair rests. We let the view through the guest room graze, along shelf walls, on whose dark-colored soils wine glasses, vinegar oil and spice massages provide a mirror image in the rear wall mirror. Door hoes, in bright Bordeaux red tinted balusters, which are not much wider than the shelves and in front of the walls, limit the shelves, emphasize doors and windows and carry the beige-colored upper strap running around the room. On this, wine bottles support the Mediterranean flair of the red brown stone floor. LED spots radiate from the bottom of the upper belt on contemporary paintings and give the room an indirect illumination. The guest room is directly illuminated by two huge lights hanging down from a powerful box opening in the beige-colored ceiling. It is a pleasant, Mediterranean ambience: note good and four stars. The service (2 stars A young lady supports the padrone in service. She gives us the menus. We order a bottle of Italian mineral water (the three-quarter litre bottle at 5,50 € and a pils from the Siegerland (0,3l to 2,50 €). The young lady served, we have studied the menu and the added table with daily dishes. The cryptic pizza names like Papa Lucio don't reveal anything about the pizzen's coverings, we ask. Is the young lady still learning? She asks at the Padrone, who then gives us information. We will be served by the service and the boss. Both are friendly. But at the end of the evening we look back on two mistakes in the service that rarely meet a guest at once. The food (3 star daily dishes, typical of a Ristorante, can be found on the table set at the table: ham and melon, salmon carpaccio, penne, fatuccine, sea bass, calf ridges. Typical Italian dishes can also be found in the printed menu: various salads, pizza and pasta, some fish and meat dishes and a few desserts. Prices seem appropriate, they are at the usual level of pizzerias and restaurants in small towns. We choose after the boss Papa Lucio, Pizza Maruzzella and the like explained to us – a Piccola Insalata mista (5,50 € and a pizza diavolo (7, € and – an Insalata 'Maruzzella' con Tonno (8,50 € and a pizza Maruzzella (9,50 €). The boss writes the order in his bell, the young lady brings the greeting from the kitchen. It is fresh bread, very tasty, and a bowl with inlaid, de-stoned, black olives and inlaid dried tomatoes. We gout. The latter have an intense tomato taste. Tastes like 'more', we agree. The salads don't let them wait long. My wife gets a handsome plate full of salad, as handsome and visual as my Maruzzella con Tonno , only that with me there are plenty of tuna pieces on the Salatberg. The salad is fresh and crisp. Various leaf salads, cucumbers and radish slices, ruccola, carrots, peppers and tomato slices are garnished with a tasty balsamico oil dressing. We are very happy with the salads, especially since the Piccola Insalata is not small at all. We do not yet know one of the service errors at this time. The boss takes the pizzas personally. My better half gets a pizza diavolo – now I say in the after again – and wonders about missing peperoni. But they could have hidden under the cheese. After the first bites, she becomes more skeptical: Is that a 'diavolo' at all? It regrets that there is a misunderstanding. He listed Papa Lucio's pizza. No trace of Diavolo sharpness in the Papa Lucio . For compensation, the padrone brings a peel with inlaid peperoni, which, however, cannot compensate for the impressible taste of the tomato, mozarella and olive lining of Papa Lucio. A last rescue attempt, my wife still orders sharp oil to get sharper to the supposed diavolo. But also the oil does not help what I can convince myself with a shot about my Maruzzella. My Pizza Maruzzella is abundantly documented: paprika, mushrooms, salami, prociutto, artichokes, olives. Tastefully it is o. k., but with both pizzas we miss usual features. They're too thick, almost American. Crispy are the pizza floors and the edges also not, rather soft. The good impression of the food that the salads have left is gone. Together with the salads that earned four stars, and the greeting from the kitchen, we rate the food with three stars, i.e. the Italian herbal liqueur, which I order after the sweet-filling pizza, is brought by the young lady flugs. Go to the house bill! , she says quietly, and I suffocate the ample alcoholic herbal elixir, whose amount significantly exceeds the four Hunderstel oak mark – a reparation for the pasted pizza delivery!? Still, we don't think about the secret of the oversized Piccola Insalata mista. Instead of the Piccola Insalata mista is an Insalate Maruzzella to 7. Euro listed, and the Papa Lucio beats with 9. Euro instead of the 7. Euro for the Diavolo to beech. We can see how the two salads differ only by the tuna line. The padrone apologises here too, he wrote the wrong salad. It reacts immediately to its errors and reduces the invoice by 4.50 €. Cleanliness (3.5 star tables, dishes and the best corners are clean, the guest room too. The practiced housewife eye discovers here and there dust on the mirror on the wall. We didn't use the toilets. For cleanliness, we have close four stars. The price/performance ratio (3 stars The boss regretted the service errors, reduced the bill and donated a drink. Nonetheless, for four ordered foods two incorrectly served are clearly too much: error rate 50 percent. The pasted service performance and the quality of the pizza trays allow us to judge the price/performance ratio despite the good salads just with o.k., i.e. three stars. The conclusion (3 stars We were not really satisfied with the evening. Well, I guess it's a good comment. There are three stars from us as a conclusion for the Maruzzella."
