Der Katzlmacher used to be located in Maxvorstadt (see reviews). In mid-2006 they moved to the premises previously occupied by Rossi. Although the place has a German name, the cuisine is Italian. The business lunch is quite pricey at €25.

This restaurant used to be in Maxvorstadt and is one of the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to. If it hasn't slipped up since moving to the city centre I am sure it still is one of the best.
Posted by: Uncle Jamal at 2:38 pm on 12.Jun.2007I was yesterday with some friends in Katzlmacher. Food and wines taste wonderful, exactly like in Italy. Belive me, I can tell it, because I'm Italian. The waiter Amedeo looks like Jean Reno (Film:Leon) and is top.
Posted by: "Anto F." at 2:30 pm on 24.Aug.2007Went there last night after reading reviews on this page. It was absolutely beautiful, we had a large group & entertained guests from home. The service was friendly and quick, food was top notch & atmosphere was warm & inviting. Can't wait till we go back.
Posted by: "fussy" at 9:48 am on 20.Jan.2008Ate here last week as a solo (female) diner and had an excellent three-course meal. Unlike some places where solo diners might be seated in a less-than-ideal spot, I was given a prime table. Waiters were attentive but not annoying. Good bread, a tasty amuse-bouche, a nice selection of wines. I can highly recommend the octopus "carpaccio".
Posted by: "soloista" at 5:36 pm on 21.Mar.2008We were there tonight and sorely disappointed. No better than any regular pizza place. The service was wonderful, but the decor was mismatched, the food uninspired (and lukewarm!) and it was half empty on a Saturday night. Maybe if you'd never been to the old Katzlmacher you wouldn't notice the difference... but what a shame.
