Italian Restaurant

Sterzing’s culinary hotspot

“Flavour is the sense through which the soul touches the body,” said German philosopher Ludwig Feuerbach once. At this restaurant in Sterzing, tradition and innovation intertwine, blending recipes from the north and south into a delightful symphony of flavours.

The taste of “amore” in this restaurant in Sterzing

Delicious food and a trip to Italy go together like mozzarella and pizza or Pecorino cheese and spaghetti. Italian cuisine takes inspiration from the length and breadth of the boot-shaped country, creating unique taste experiences. That’s why we focus on the best of Italy from Brenner to Sicily in this unique restaurant in Sterzing – both on your plate and in your glass.

The menu of the Italian Restaurant at the Schwarzer Adler is a love letter to indulgence. The best products, creative recipes, South Tyrolean classics, Neapolitan pizza, and pasta sauces that make your taste buds sing – always authentic, lovingly prepared, and aromatic.

In the café bar of the Schwarzer Adler, you can choose between 12 varieties of homemade ice cream. Strawberry, chocolate … Why limit yourself to just one when so many flavours are just waiting to be sampled and savoured? And if you fancy something soft and sweet to end your visit to our hotel restaurant in Sterzing, our homemade whipped ice cream awaits. What will it be today?
