Il Casolare, Il Ritrovo and I Due Forni are three Italian restaurants that as far as I know, are the same but in different neighborhoods.

The one that I like the most is Il Casolare, maybe because it’s the first one that I tried (among the three), maybe because it’s closer to my home or maybe because the situation couldn’t be better.

You can find it right next to Admiralsbrücke in Kreuzeberg. In summer, you can enjoy your pizza in the outdoor terrace and even enjoy live music.

The pizza menu is quite wide. I always go for the ones that have cream cheese on top.

And what can you find inside? Lots of people, so make sure to book in advance. On the wall you can find signatures, scribbles and punk bands posters from past shows.

Il Ritrovo in Friedrichshain is similiar, bigger than Il Casolare. Best place to have dinner with friends if you are around the area.
