Editorial Review for Caffe Vittoria – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
On busy weekend nights, carefully coiffed 20-somethings fill Caffe Vittoria's four levels of seating to linger over cappuccinos and shots of limoncello. The menu of creamy gelato and rich pastries goes great with the extensive list of coffee drinks available. Libation lovers relax over a glass from the cafe's lengthy Grappa list.

everybody likes to go there. but i don't find this place stands out in any particular way. desserts and coffee are ok but nothing spectacular; wait staff is inattentive bordering on unfriendly (and we didn't even go in rush hour or occupying the table for hours w/o second rounds of food & drinks). i don't see why's the hype. one time i went there and was enticed by their considerable list of ice-cream flavors on the menu. but when i ordered it, they only had 2 or 3 in stock (not that they ran out but they actually don't make them). so why not take them off the menu already? :)
Pros: hanover hot spot, great people watching
Cons: confusing seating system (do i seat myself or what), items on menu not available, old furniture & decor

After dinner in the north end, my wife and I decided to check this place out. There was no wait, so we sat ourselves at a table. The waitress was very polite, and helped explain some of the items we weren't sure about. Everything on the menu sounded delicious, so we decided on cappucino, tiramisu, and a canoli. It was delicious, I've never tasted cappucino quite like this. Also the atmosphere in the cafe was great, it felt like you were right in Italy. Overall, I highly recommend this place, and would definately go back again. Also if you smoke, check out Stanza dei Sigari located right downstairs.
Pros: Cappucino, tiramisu, canoli, atmosphere, and service
Cons: none
