Vapiano Italian Restaurant 7.3

Are you hungry for Italian food? Come and check out the restaurant called Vapiano.


This is the chain restaurants, which were first originated in Germany.


What is interesting about this place is that this restaurant been created by Germans, but offer Italian food. The concept is very unique. Right form the first when you walked in the host will greet you and will give you the red Vapiano’s plastic card.


You need to give this card to the cook.



Eventually you will have everything you ordered on this card, and on the way out the same host will check what you have on this red Vapiano’s card in order to charge you. Next, you go to the kitchen station, where you order the food you would like.





They have the menu, and additionally everything is written on the black board up on the wall. You make a choice what do you want to eat: pasta, salad or pizza.


There is a specific station you need to go, depending on you choice.


They offer choice of white or regular pasta, any additional seasoning with it, and different type of sause.



Cook made everything in the front of you. So much fun just to observe this process! Can you imagine that somebody making the food specifically for you, and more than that in the front of you?


Many people still do not get the concept. And you will see a lot of bad comments online. But it is just matter of time. Last time I have been there last week, for lunch.


My favorite dish there is Pasta Carbonara. Yumm!



Regular pasta, beckon or other sausage, prosciutto ham, eggs, creamy white souse, and a little bit of chopped parsley. Bellissimo! Bravissimo!


I tried pizza too. I was not too impress, will tell you truth. Their salads are good, but not too great. You can create you own salad or pizza. This is not a something new and creative in the USA world in now days.



This restaurant has a nice lounge in the front.

You can have a meeting there or just have a good time with your book.


I like this place in general. It is something new and fresh in the US. The way they run the place is different and unique.


People are nice, and customer service is definitely too.


I am personally is not a big fan of pasta or pizza, but I love to hold my meeting there with great cappuccino, and absolutely superb traditional tiramisu.

They have a couple of location: in Arlington, next to my family restaurant Grand Cru, DC area, and Dulles International airport area.

Try it and let me know your opinion. I am sure, that you will fine this place not ordinary, inexpensive, and just simply fun.
