TOMATO

Koestraat in Maastricht is bursting with charming restaurants and cafes, and Tomato is a must-visit. This small space boasts a large open kitchen, where you can dive right in and watch the Italian chef at work. Be sure to pay attention, because flavors like those you experience here will make you want to recreate them at home. The same goes for the homemade limoncello.

Chic Boiling Point

An Italian restaurant where you can also learn the tricks of the trade? We wouldn't say no to that, so make sure you get to Sjiek Kookpunt soon. Whether you go for the tempting little shop, a cooking workshop, or a delicious meal: you'll leave feeling full and very happy. A bonus: in the summer, you can dine al fresco at long tables.

Gio's Home cooking

At Gio's, they do things their own way: you eat what's on the menu. You choose fish, meat, or vegetarian, and leave the rest to the chef. From experience, we can confidently say this never disappoints.

Ristopub Paletti

An Italian pub—that sounds like music to your ears, doesn't it? We agree, and that alone makes this Ristopub a good idea. You've come to the right place for pizza and beer, but at a high level.
