Vapiano is a European restaurant franchise that offers Italian cuisine in a casual dining setting. The brand is known for its "fresh casual" dining concept, where food is prepared in front of the customers and tailored to their preferences.

History[edit]

Vapiano was founded in 2002 in Hamburg, Germany. The concept was developed by Mark Korzilius, Gregor Gerlach, and Klaus Rader. The first restaurant opened in October 2002, and the brand quickly expanded across Europe and beyond.

Concept[edit]

Vapiano's dining experience is characterized by its open kitchen format, where chefs prepare dishes such as pasta, pizza, and salads in front of the guests. Customers receive a chip card upon entering, which they use to order food and drinks. The card is then used to pay at the end of the meal.
