Cozy Italian Lunch Spot in Mitte: Giotto on Friedrichstraße
Mitte is full of Italian restaurants. You’ll find Giotto at Friedrichstraße 132, right across from the Friedrichstadtpalast. It’s open on weekdays from 11:30 a.m. until midnight. The lunch menu runs from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. and is very reasonably priced — for just €9.70, you get a soup or salad, a pasta dish, a soft drink, and coffee. The soup and bread were quite good, but the seafood pasta felt a bit plain to me. The pasta options with tomato or cream sauces looked more appealing. The house wine was okay, nothing special, but fairly priced for Mitte. Inside, the seating is very comfortable, and the restrooms are spotless.
