Restaurant Casa-Vita

Visited here a few times when I was on hols with my partner in Schierke, central Deutschland. The place is a Spanish/Med restaurant in Wernigerode village with a nice cosy interior, log fire, water feature and all wooden/stone walls, plants and beautifully tiled flooring, in fact, you'd be forgiven for thinking you were in a designer cave, one can almost forget there is a planet Earth outside it's so encapsulating. The food is absolutely impeccable if be it for the rather small portions as the prices, are rather up there for what you get. However, everything is really fresh and bursting with flavour. The tomato soup was basic but effective, other vegan options were tasty but again rather small. The Mediterranean vegetables was absolutely divine but again rather small for the price, which is the same for the Red Curry and the Langos with Hummus. After all, how much does Hummus cost, not a lot and you don't get a lot either, when accompanied with just a salad at almost €13, ouch! it was a similar story with my partner, (who is vegetarian) her Flammkuchen (think pizza meets flat bread tart) which simply had cream cheese and a few red onions, that was it for also €13, again ouch! The problem I had with this venue was the service, get there early and you're OK, but when it starts filling up, the short staffing becomes noticeable and sometimes the waiting staff get stressed; the shortness in their replies to customers becomes apparent. As well as this, when we wanted to settle the bill, we waited, waited and waited some more. The waitress who served us finally admitted they have no cash system which made my eyebrows arise. Seems there is a bit of tax fiddle going on here. Small portions, high prices, low staff numbers, hmm, someone's looking to line their pockets methinks! In summing up, the food is amazing, but room for improvement would be the prices accompanying the small portions as well as a dodgy billing situation and short staff numbers. Otherwise good.

Very cozy place in the middle of the town. Beautiful outdoor seating in a small yard and relaxed indoor seating with lots of space. The food was delicious. I can recommend the homemade gnocchi with figs and goat cheese and the vegetarian flammkuchen. The service was very nice. Perfect for a warm summer evening

If you know anything about Pasta, just don’t take it here... I ordered spaghettini with tomato sauce and it was awful. And it was also more expensive than average pasta everywhere in Germany. Other dish, baked goat cheese, was good though.

Good food (vegan, veggie, gluten-free no problem) in Mediterranean style. Service a little overworked, but super friendly to wait a little. We're coming back!
