The chef who cooks for
the Italian Embassy

Domenico has spent his whole life cooking Italian food the way it was meant to be — slow, generous, made by hand. So when the Italian Embassy in Berlin set its table, it called him.

The same pasta, the same southern wines, the same care — at Modi, every night.

A cozy place with
a big Italian heart

Modi is not a concept restaurant. It is a family place — cooked by Domenico, hosted with heart. You are not booking dinner; you are joining la famiglia for the evening.

From the Kitchen

Salumeria, Pasta &
the Italian South

Fresh pasta made by hand, salumi and cheese from small Italian producers, seasonal antipasti and wines from the family’s own south. Classic, generous, Italian.

What guests say

The pasta was made that morning. The wine came with a story. Domenico came to every table — not to check on us, just to talk. We stayed three hours and did not notice. The best evening we have had in Berlin in years.

Live Music Evenings

Not too loud.
Not too formal.

Once a month, Modi hosts an Italian evening — a menu by Chef Domenico, wines from the south and a live band playing under the Modigliani paintings.

Just the right sound for wine, food and conversation. The kind of music that makes you stay a little longer than you planned.

“Just the right sound for a perfect evening.”

Real Italian,
Not Restaurant Theatre

Modi is small because it is personal.

The food is not produced by a system. It is cooked by Domenico.

The wines are not chosen to decorate a menu. They come from the places and tastes the family knows.

This is not staged Italian dining.
It is a real family table — simple, warm and full of feeling.
