One table · many stations · to share
Tavolata in Klagenfurt
The tavolata is Italy at its loveliest: one long table, many bowls and stations, everyone shares. Instead of a fixed menu the food travels across the table – sociable, generous and easy-going, quietly in the green at the Kreuzbergl pond. Ideal for larger groups who simply want to be together.
What is a tavolata?
Food that brings people together
“Tavolata” roughly means a big table: you sit together at one long table, and the food comes to the middle to share. Nobody has to decide in advance, everyone tries a bit of everything – which is exactly what makes the evening so relaxed and sociable.
With us the tavolata comes as a generous sharing buffet with stations – perfect for birthdays, company events and family gatherings from around 15 guests.

How it works
A tavolata with us – step by step
- You tell us the occasion, preferred date and approximate number of guests – we suggest suitable stations and a flow for the evening.
- On the night the long table is set and ready; the food comes in bowls and across stations to share in the middle.
- Nobody orders individually: you eat together and at your own pace, from the antipasti to the dolci.

Good to know
Frequently asked questions about the tavolata
From how many guests is it a group?
From around 8 guests we are happy to plan a shared menu or buffet. Smaller groups are of course welcome à la carte too.
How large can our celebration be?
We host celebrations of up to around 80 guests. To keep everything running smoothly at that size, large groups dine from a shared set menu instead of à la carte – we put it together with you in advance.
Can we reserve the terrace at the pond?
In fine weather, gladly. Just note in your enquiry that you'd like to sit outside and we'll keep the right area for you.
Is a deposit required?
From 9 guests a deposit of €15 per person is required. It secures your booking and is fully credited towards your bill during your visit. You'll receive the bank details by email once we've fixed the details together. If you cancel at least 48 hours before the date, the deposit is refunded or, if you prefer, issued as a voucher. Please let us know the expected number of guests about 7 days in advance; you can adjust the exact number up to 1 day before – after that it is binding, and for guests missing at short notice the deposit may be retained proportionally.
How quickly will we hear back?
Right after submitting you'll get a confirmation by email. We personally get back to you, usually within one to two days, with a proposal.
