Welcome to Eiscafe Rizzelli, a charming café nestled in the heart of Mainz at Leichhof 32, just steps away from the magnificent cathedral. This delightful spot offers a slice of authentic Italian culture right in Germany, inviting you to savor the rich flavors and vibrant atmosphere that define its cuisine.

At Eiscafe Rizzelli, each visit promises a feast for the senses. Renowned for its extensive menu, the café is a true haven for lovers of Italian food. Customers often rave about the pizza—crisp, golden crust topped with fresh ingredients that transport you straight to Italy with every bite. Pair your meal with a refreshing spritz for the full Italian experience, as Francesca Mazzotta can attest, declaring it "such good PIZZA AND SPRITZ!"

If you're in the mood for a quick snack or a delightful dessert, look no further than their sumptuous ice cream desserts. Large and indulgent, these treats are a feast for both the eyes and the taste buds, making them a popular choice among locals and tourists alike. As Grant S notes, Eiscafe Rizzelli offers a "large choice of food" that also includes smoothies and drinks, all fairly priced given its prime location.

The atmosphere here is equally inviting. Imagine sitting in a cozy corner, enjoying a panino—which MariaJo Al. claims is the best in Mainz—while listening to the distant ringing of church bells. It’s the perfect backdrop for relaxation, making it an ideal spot to unwind with a friend over a hot chocolate or a glass of white wine, as experienced by oğuz ali ekinci.

The staff at Eiscafe Rizzelli are known for their attentiveness and warmth, ensuring that your dining experience is nothing short of exceptional. Their knowledgeable team is always ready to help you navigate the extensive menu, making every visit feel personalized and special.

In a world filled with cafés, Eiscafe Rizzelli stands out not just for its delectable offerings but also for its genuine Italian charm and welcoming environment. Whether you're seeking a leisurely brunch, a cozy coffee break, or a delightful dinner, this café is a must-visit destination in Mainz. Embrace the flavors of Italy—your taste buds will thank you!

Large choice of food, Ice cream desserts (they are big!) , smoothies, drinks etc. Fairly priced given its prime location by the cathedral. Staff attentive and helpful when trying to choose something from the wide selection.

Nice atmosphere, I think the favorite drink on the tables was white wine in a big water glass, I ordered one and enjoyed it with the ringing church bell in the background

Their coffee and gelato are fantastic. My husband ordered the lasagna and it was really good. I ordered the carbonara and it was too creamy. Friendly staff.

Having just come from visiting naples/Amalfi coast, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the Italian food! Excellent Panini and spaghetti.
