Trattoria Italiana
Benvenuto!
You can find our Trattoria Italiana City Hall right in the middle of the beating heart of the historic city center of Leiden. A place that carries at least the same amount of character as its iconic building that overlooks the famous Nieuwe Rijn canal. Italian cuisine is known for its authentic simplicity, yet preparing an excellent Italian dish means spending the whole day in the kitchen. Weโre in the kitchen all day, every day. With that typical Italian temper for excellent taste in food and drinks.
