"On 19.05.2022 the Italian restaurant Rilasso opened in the premises of the former Da Raffaele in Herdecke on the border between Dortmund-Kirchhörde and Herdecke. From a small room with a reception you can reach the spacious guest room via a stage. All tables were completely covered. Overall a very inviting modern-egant impression. Our foods: In front of the house there were fresh, cut-out ciabatta on a small wooden bowl, a small bowl with creamy hint with cut liquor and a small bowl with olives. Appetizer: As a daily offer, my accompaniment took three Irish oysters (piece 4,50 €), which were served on an elegant black plate with ice and lemon slice. Before I was able to take the photo, the caster was too big and wounded, one of the great fleshy oysters was already cleaned. Main courts: The separate slate map on the wall offers several day offers. Among others cod with horse sauce and supplements (28,90). We both chose this court. My accompaniment chose a crispy fresh mixed salad with discrete oil-eating dressing and roast potatoes. The creamy cream sauce was delicately flavored with horseradish and delighted my accompaniment excellent. On request I got a light butter sauce, the fresh lemon juice gave a hearty aromatic freshness. I chose roast potatoes with zucchini, wild bread and sugar beet. The potatoes were roasted golden brown and bite. The fresh vegetables were thrown in butter and pleasantly bite. My cord was fried on the skin, which was easy to solve. The meat was cooked in an optimally gentle manner and wonderfully disintegrated in lamellae with careful comminution. I think this absolutely fresh and discreetly seasoned fish was perfectly gentle. As the mother of my accompaniment said, “A food without dessert is not a food!” and he followed this statement. He wished the house a sorbet with a shot of Limoncello (7.50 €). This wish was fulfilled. Three balls of refreshing lemon sorbet with fresh raspberries and blueberries were served in a bright glass on a dark ceramic plate. He was happy. Our drinks: 0.75 l Opera Roses Valtenesi Riviera del Garda Classico DOC, Lombardy, 39 € 0.75 l Mineral water from Molinari to 7.60 € And finally there was a small baggage from the house, 1 glass heated Grappa and 1 glass Sambuca. Conclusion: High quality excellent cuisine services with first-class, competent, warm service thanks to Pasquale Oppido and his beautiful wife and son Luca Palmieri. For connoisseurs another reliable address as in the other shops in DO-Aplerbeck and earlier in DO-Hohensyburg. A restaurant with a beautiful, elegant ambience that we can certainly recommend. Repeat is planned. Reservation is recommended. Addendum on 06.03.2023: In the meantime, I haven't been there for months because I was disappointed in recent visits, especially through the services of the kitchen. The spatial change from DO-Hohensyburg to Herdecke did not meet the expectations of an upscale Italian cuisine that the owners had previously announced to regular guests. The prices collected did not correspond to the services of the kitchen. Shame!"
