L'Arte in Cucina

The story

L'Arte in Cucina, Tuscan Italian Restaurant in Düsseldorf Gerresheim

L'Arte in Cucina is a Tuscan Italian restaurant at Gerricusplatz 6 in Düsseldorf, listed as Michelin Recommended in 2026. It sits directly across from the Basilica of St. Margaret in Gerresheim.

The Casini family kitchen

The Casini family puts fresh, high-quality products and attentive service first. They say they work to keep the traditions of Tuscan cooking intact. The Schlemmer Atlas gave the restaurant 2.5 Kochlöffel in 2026, and Gambero Rosso awarded it 2 forks in 2025.

Pasta, game and the changing menu

The menu changes often, so what you find may differ from the online version. Recent pasta includes pici with black cabbage pesto, Tuscan sausage and pecorino, pappardelle with wild boar ragù, and gnudi of ricotta and chard in sage butter. Main courses lean on Tuscan tradition: Eifel rabbit alla cacciatora with Taggiasca olives, and sheep stew with polenta.

Vegan dishes and desserts

Plant-based cooking is part of the Tuscan repertoire here. Pappa al pomodoro, the bread and tomato soup, and a spaghettoni with pumpkin, chestnuts and orange are both marked vegan. Dessert might be cantucci with Vin Santo and mascarpone mousse, or a reworked torta della nonna with pine nuts.
