"This cozy restaurant in the heart of Düsseldorf has left the best impressions! Hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, beautiful presentation, wide wine list and wonderful dessert. Although the menu was only in German we managed to translate it also with help of the hostess.
Wine was very good, the food delicious, for local people really away from tourists you can enjoy a traditional high standard restaurant, love it"

Wer Lust auf ein leckeres und durchaus exquisites Dinner in gemütlicher Atmosphäre samt Kerzenschein hat, der ist im Amabile goldrichtig. Das kleine Restaurant liegt etwas versteckt in einer Seitenstraße nahe des Rathenauplatzes und überzeugt kulinarisch mit moderner, französischer Küche. Aufgrund des gehobenen Niveaus ist das Essen hier nicht ganz günstig, aber das Geld wert.
