(A love of cooking brings happiness to life.)
In the centre of the charming Werden district of Essen lies a real gem for lovers of Italian cuisine - the da Omero restaurant. This restaurant epitomises authentic joie de vivre, which you can feel as soon as you step through the door.
Authentic ambience with Mediterranean flair
The restaurant welcomes its guests in a warm and inviting atmosphere that immediately conveys the feeling of being welcome. Designed with great attention to detail, the restaurant radiates a mixture of Mediterranean charm and familiar warmth. Here you don't just feel like a guest, but like part of an Italian family.



Cordiality throughout the team
As soon as you enter the restaurant, you are greeted with a warm smile and genuine hospitality. The entire team - from the greeting to the service at the table - ensures that you feel completely at ease. Every gesture, every word and every moment is characterised by warmth and attention, making you feel like you are visiting friends.
Culinary delights at the highest level
The culinary offering at da Omero is a feast for the senses. The menu offers a varied selection of classic and modern Italian dishes:
- Homemade pasta prepared with love.
- Crispy pizzas baked to perfection.
- Exquisite meat and fish dishes that perfectly bring the flavours of Italian cuisine to the plate.
The seasonal specialities are a particular highlight. Fresh seasonal ingredients are always used here, giving the dishes a very special flavour and surprising guests time and time again. In November and December, for example, there are excellent white truffles, which are served in many variations on the dishes. During the asparagus season, guests can expect fine dishes centred around this popular vegetable, and during the chanterelle season, refined creations provide culinary delights. In addition, the kitchen surprises guests all year round with other seasonal delicacies that are always freshly and creatively prepared.










A varied selection of drinks
No good meal is complete without the right drink. At da Omero, guests can expect a carefully curated selection of wines that harmonise perfectly with the dishes, as well as refreshing non-alcoholic drinks. Whether red wine, white wine, Prosecco or a fruity aperitif - there is something to suit every taste.
Outdoor enjoyment: The covered outdoor area
A special highlight of the restaurant is the covered outdoor area. Especially in the warm summer months, this space invites you to linger and offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the delicious food and drinks in the fresh air. The Mediterranean atmosphere in the open air lends a relaxed lightness to every visit.

Celebrate at da Omero - Unforgettable moments
The Restaurant da Omero is not only a place for an excellent dinner, but also the perfect location for celebrations. Whether birthdays, anniversaries or other special occasions - here every moment becomes an unforgettable experience.
I have already organised my husband's birthday there and the whole evening was simply amazing. Every course, every detail, every gesture by the team was perfectly coordinated. The guests were thrilled, as I am every time. The attention to detail and the excellent organisation make celebrations at this venue something very special.
One of the best restaurants in Essen
For me personally, the restaurant is one of the best restaurants in Essen. The combination of excellent cuisine, warm hospitality from the entire team and an atmosphere that makes every visit a highlight is simply unbeatable.

If I had the chance, I would come here every week to enjoy the culinary delights and the unique ambience. It's a place where you can leave everyday life behind and simply feel good all round.
