Fodor's Expert Review La Gondola

The faded interior of this popular Italian restaurant in the Altstadt pedestrian zone may be at odds with the gold lettering and elegant window frames adorning its facade, but it's cozy and welcoming nonetheless. A local favorite for more than a quarter century, La Gondola serves homemade pasta, pizza (also family size), and salad. Note that it's closed from 2:30 to 5.
