Perlacht Acht

Top choice in Augsburg


Run by a young local couple, this superb restaurant has its focus firmly on light, flavoursome dishes with a sunny Mediterranean bent. Take a seat at one of the hefty olive-wood tables to enjoy handmade pastas, tomato risotto with smoked mozarella and crispy pork belly with orange, fennel and gnocchi.
