osteria sippi in Berlin

Delicious Italian food with great service ! Highly recommend the place for dinner.

We've had the best dinner ever! The owner is the nicest, most accogliente person ever, helped us with wines, took amazing care of us, checked on us every step of the way. The food was delicious. We had gnocco fritto, panzanella, roast beef, and two pastas. It became our favorite Italian place in the area, we'll definitely be back. Grazie mille ✨

Best casual dining experience I've had in Nuekolln in years. Wine recommendations on point. Food perfectly simple. Service was great!

The food is pretty good but the service is not. It‘s Italian food but Berlin service I guess.

Good food and good wine! That shouldn't be more!

Apparently the owner or manager treated me badly. It seemed to bother him that I was trying to order something in his restaurant. He took my order and never brought it to my table. I left the place practically as if I had never been there. His attention is selective...

Very unfriendly employee. The music was too loud (for such a cozy restaurant) and I asked politely if the music could be turned down a bit and I got a cheeky answer that when you go somewhere you're not allowed to say what the music is others have to do. He completely turned off the music and at first I thought it was a joke. I said again that he was welcome to turn on the music, but only a little quietly, but then he was totally rude again and said, didn't you get what you wanted?!? Then he was rude again and loudly gossiped about us in Italian (good thing I know Italian). Of course we left. Very very rude and not recommended. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Guests of the taste police: cappuccinos are not served here in the evening and beer sales have also been stopped. Here guests are protected from themselves!

Tolle Weinkarte, sehr gutes Essen, großartige Stimmung. Hier wird mit Liebe und Leidenschaft gekocht und verköstigt!

Got seated and tried to get the waiters attention for 15 minutes. All attempts were unsuccessful so we left. Won’t be back.

A beautiful piece of Italy ❤️ must try it!

We had a wonderful dinner with fantastic food and service!!

The food is great, the atmosphere is really nice and i like their wine menu, so i really do not get why this place is only rated 4.2. Def recommend to go there :)

Update: The owner desperately attempted to insult me after my relatively neutral review. Get a life dude. 🥱 Updated to a one star because the owner clearly deserves it. Don’t go here. Original review: I'm sure they're hand making their pasta and using really good ingredients. The food is good. It's just not that special. And for this price you can get high quality ingredients AND interesting dishes. It all sort of felt like something I could make at home. The charcuterie was good, but that's not really something they cook there… just well sourced and delicious ingredients. But still, it was good! The rest of the food was pretty good but nothing special. And at 20€ for a plate of pasta, I expected better. The service was very nice but also pretty bad. I got the 30€ menu that came with two glasses of wine. The two glasses were served at the same time (and I already had a cocktail). We were so confused about who the glasses were for, someone else at the table drank one of the glasses and so when I expected my next glass she said she already had served it. Really confusing, never heard of anyone getting two glasses of wine at once… why? Also one person at our table got a glass of water while waiting for the rest of the group to show up and we were charged 7€ for a bottle of water. Besides it being wrong, who charges 7€ for a bottle of water…? They gave us the 7€ back after we noticed it. Honestly the place isn't bad but it's not great. I'd skip it.

authentic Italian, Very good quality

Welcoming atmosphere, excellent selection of wines, varied menu. Always a great experience.

Nice place, nice wine. Alessandro, the owner gave us the best wine recommendation and made our experience fantastic!!!

The food and ambiance were excellent, and our server was delightful, helping us to understand the menu through combined Italian/English and German and making great food and wine recommendations. We also loved the musical playlist (early 60’s American soul on this evening ). Overall we had a great time and highly recommend this great spot.

Authentic Tuscan cuisine for which you have to be willing to take some time. Freshly cooked and high quality, friendly service and a diverse wine selection. This makes every visit something special.

The food tastes great. The prices are reasonable for the quality! The service was inconsistent on our evening, with one waitress appearing friendly, another a bit condescending and another a bit insecure. However, there were many other regulars who warmly greeted the service staff and a few lost tourists and people from the outskirts who wanted to try something out. So, the food is great and everything else obviously leans toward extroverted authenticity. A space for people who like exactly that. Small addendum: We weren't there to look at the unsafe service, but to eat.

Amazing food! The staff was very friendly (and speak english). Accept cards above 30 euros

You know when they say: "If a restaurant has a small menu but a big wine selection, that place is legit? ". Well, this place embodies this. Less is more. Great quality, selection on point.

Authentic Italian place in Kreuzkolln. Prices are not cheap but absolutely justified considered the quality of the ingredients. Great wine list as well.

Grazie per averci dato la possibilità di avere un cenone di capodanno unico, come se fossimo stati a casa. Credo di aver mangiato i migliori cappelletti in brodo e lo gnocco fritto di sempre. La fregola con il polpo era qualcosa di divino. Servizio molto cordiale e staff al completo molto simpatico. Grazie ancora.

Immer wieder gerne! Kleine aber feiner Speisekarte sowie eine wahnsinnig tolle Weinkarte!!

The food is delicious. The service from the tall Italian guy outstanding. Absolutely recommended! P.S. Al cur no si comande ❤️

Great and (I might say) almost unique selection of wine served on glass.

Eine schöne Osteria mit freundlichem Personal, einer überschaubaren aber netten kleinen Karte mit leckeren Gerichten. Der Weinkeller dafür üppig mit großem Angebot.

Incredibly good Italian place in the heart of Berlin. Thanks for the warm atmosphere and great food.

it is worth the money you leave there, wine selection and curation is exceptional

It is a fantastic place with tasty quality ingredients in the food, great wines, warm service, and a quiet atmosphere. Prices are worth that.

Wir waren mit Verwandten meine Frau am Sonntag zum Essen bei Sippi. Ein uriges Lokal mit Top Speisen! Der mittelgroße Vorspeisenteller macht 4 Personen schon alleine fast satt. Dann noch 2 verschiedene Nudelgerichte zum Teilen und einmal Fleisch. Alles perfekt zu bereitet. Dazu sehr gute Weine. Die Bedienung Eloise und Barbara haben alles perfekt organisiert. Alles in allem ein super Abend. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Delicious food 10/10 & the best service. Thank you for the nice Italian experience. I can definitely recommend this place if you are searching for a Italian Dinner Night.

Vera cucina italiana, buonissimissima!!! E anche gentilissimi e disponibilissimi. TOP! Un po' caro... ma ne vale la pena.

Ein großartiges, italienisches Restaurant mit super Service und hervorragendem Essen. Wer hier Pizza und Standard sucht ist fehl am Platz. Die Osteria Sippi überzeugt durch eine sehr ausgewählte, gelungene und nicht überladene Speisekarte. Das Essen schmeckt großartig und die passenden Weine gibt es auch dazu. Wir haben uns bezüglich der Weine beraten lassen und durften vorher natürlich auch probieren. Die Empfehlungen haben hervorragend gepasst und trotz vollem Lokal wusste die Bedienung noch was unsere vorherigen Vorlieben war und hat wieder den richtigen Geschmack getroffen. Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt und freuen uns einen so schönen Abend gehabt zu haben. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder. Kleiner Tip noch an andere Gäste, da ich das hier in den weiteren Rezessionen gelesen hatte, nehmt nicht immer die gemischte Vorspeisenplatte...probiert einfach mal den Rest der Vorspeisen und teilt sie euch... unglaublich lecker und nicht zu verpassen.

Mittelmäßiges, überteuertes Essen. Schlechter, unkoordinierter, nerviger Service. Unnötiger Hipsterquatsch!

Really enjoyable and great food and wine. Service was also a fun and friendly!

Bien accueilli, service rapide et très à l’écoute. Bonne cuisine italienne. Le ragu était très bon. Cadre très agréable.

Italienischer, netter Service. Bei den Gerichten gibt es keine große - aber genug Auswahl. Die Portionen sind für den Preis eher klein. Die Vorspeisenplatte wiederum ist sehr sehr lecker und die große Größe kann 4 Personen satt machen.

worst pasta ever and worst service as well

Nettes Lokal, wir haben Wein und Dessert bestellt und saßen sehr gemütlich draußen.

Outrageous & disappointing! The chef must’ve changed since I last came by. The first 2 times were amazing, the wine the pasta, the risotto Milanese and very kind waiter but Monday I took my partner and it was a disaster!! The carpaccio and the main dish (we wanted to share the fish) was tasteless on top of this I stipulated that I have a very SEVERE NUT ALLERGY and when the fish arrived, the vegetables under it was full of pine nuts!!! I am outraged by the lack of professionalism and the almost fatale mistake from the staff… Allergies are to be taken seriously !

Schönes Restaurant mit leicht alternativem Flair. Hier hat man Menschen die ihre Arbeit und ihr Essen lieben. Frische, hochwertige Zutaten werden liebevoll zubereitet. Essen ist sehr gut. Service cool, persönlich und authentisch. Wenn ich die Wohnung bekomme, dann sind wir Nachbarn und ich komme wieder und wieder und wieder ;-) Danke für den Abend!

This is an incredible place. They have a very exhaustive, excellent to the taste and affordable wine list. The food is always great; the menu changes quite regularly. The atmosphere is also very nice and the waiters are lovely. This is great value for money - mains are usually between 15€ to 30€ which is unbeatable for the quality of the ingredients and the quality of the service. One of my favorite places and go-to restaurants for a nice atmosphere, good food and reasonable prices.

We often come to this restaurant especially for the cold cuts and cheese mix antipasto. The products are of excellent Italian quality and the wine selection is amazing! The first and second courses are also very tasty. Pasta is obviously handmade. The vibe is always positive and the team and owner super helpful and very nice! Thanks guys!

Freundliche Bedienung und sehr schmeckliche Weine und mangiare.

Wonderful meal, lovely staff, great ambiance. Would absolutely come here again!

True Italian cuisine, one of the best in Berlin!

Very nice and warm staff. Music and atmosphere was really good. You will be sure to have a nice time

Was a very funny restaurant visit. I wished the food quality was a bit better though for the price.

Angenehmes Ambiente und einfach fabelhaftes Essen! Grüße an den Koch, der seine Arbeit mehr als gut macht!!! Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Ich würde es jedem weiterempfehlen.

Very nice wine recommendation, tasty food and nice service. Will come back!

Buonissimo! Great service, tasty wines and amazing food. What more can you wish for? Can only recommend: 10/10

Hele aardige bediening en heerlijke pasta!

Great food and drinks, lovely service and kind people, we had the most beautiful time here on new year's eve.

Sehr leckeres authentisches Essen!

Essen überteuert und Besitzer sehr unfreundlich. Das sieht man auch daran, wie er auf kritische Bewertungen antwortet. Kommt so rüber, als wäre er ein ziemlich kleines verbittertes Würstchen. Trotzdem alles Gute.

Mega authentisch und sehr gutes Essen !

Rundum perfekt! Leckere, frische und hausgemachte Pasta war super gut. Tiramisu und eine Art Nusskuchen zum Nachtisch waren unfassbar gut!! Der Service sehr nett, hat alles geduldig erklärt und war bei bester Laune. Kommen wieder

Mega leckeres Essen - Preis/Leistung ist sehr gut, Service top, freundlich & authentisch und das Ambiente ist sehr gemütlich. Unbedingt auch ein Desert probieren, der Hammer! Wir kommen wieder!

Bellissimo locale!♥️🇮🇹 Alex sei la migliore a fare i tortelli ♥️

Really really nice service Thanks Alexandro for doing your job so nicely I really had lovely time Food was just amazing 😍👌

Sehr nette und aufmerksame Bedienung die nicht zu aufdringlich ist. Das Essen war relativ teuer aber gleichzeitig sehr lecker. Pünktlich zur Öffnungszeit waren alle Tische gedeckt.

Waren hier zum Geburtstag meiner Freundin in einer größeren Gruppe im Februar und sind nachhaltig begeistert!

Nice atmosphere and decent wine selection. Food was way too salty and highly priced for the area and quality. Fine to go, but wouldn’t highly recommend.

Yeah no. Super rude service. The woman who served us seemed so annoyed at everybody and everything. We were not the only guests puzzled by this palpable hostility. It ruined a b-day dining experience we were looking forward to. The food was hit and miss. Some was good, some wasn’t. Wine was really good.

Very good food, great vibes and great wines. Always good to be back at Sippi!

Vorweg: Das Essen ist durchaus lecker. Warum nur 3 Sterne? Wir waren heute (Sa!) 18:30 die ersten im Restaurant. Trotzdem haben wir geschlagene 1:20 auf unser Essen gewartet. Die Karte ist sehr (also zu) kurz, Bier gibt es gar nicht, wer nach einem Löffel für seine Pasta fragt wird angeraut. Zu allem Überfluss sind die Preise sehr hoch und der Service sichtlich permanent überfordert. Auf sachliche Kritik reagierte der Eigentümer sehr unangemessen. All das kenne ich so nicht aus Italien. Da es in Berlin eine sehr große Anzahl guter italienischer Restaurants gibt, hat Sippi meiner Meinung nach einen schweren Stand mit dem (An)Gebotenen. Scusi, aber wir kommen nicht wieder.

Nice place for a chill dinner. Highlight is the octopus dish

Such a nice Italian restaurant. The food is super good, a large choice of wine and the people working there are really nice. Inside or outside I always have a nice time in this restaurant.

Overrated and overpriced. For the quality and taste, I don’t think the pricing is justified. Also, service could be far better, the head waiter was rude and impatient.

This is one of my favourites in the higher end of restaurants in Neukölln. Fantastic authentic Italian food served with good humour and some amazing wines to choose between. If You are a temporary visitor You will be surrounded by locals when You eat here. Make sure to reserve a table!

The food was okay, but the price they charge for it is enormous. We’re waiting 15 minutes to pay, while the waiters just were speaking with his friends

Nice atmosphere but the Spargel main dish was 😯

Der Service war in Ordnung, die Karte ist ambitioniert, das Essen aber leider sehr langweilig zubereitet und dafür dann völlig überteuert.

Foods great! Too much grappa. Dead.

Buenisima la piadiana de Sippi!

Lovely authentic italian restaurant with amazing service 🥰

Arrogante Abzocke trifft es wohl, kann mich dem Vorbewerter nur anschließen, Preis- Leistung unverhältnismäßig, warteten lange auf Getränke, Aufnahme der Bestellung, lieblose Anrichtung der Speisen, Tortellini noch teils gefroren,

Hatte im Internet reserviert, das hatte wohl nicht geklappt, wenig professionelle Begrüßung, Service langsam, Tortellini teils noch gefroren, Preis Leistung unverhältnismäßig.

Had the best stake ever here, it's really classy and cosy with options of eats and drinks

Awesome steak and great service!

Très bien accueilli, plats excellents et les vins conseillés aussi. Merci, on recommande

Try the squid with polenta, it's really good. The wine list is handwritten, too long, and on the premium side.

Gentilezza e cortesia ma cucina pessima, totalmente errati modi e tempi di cottura, pasta salata, piatti unti,sughi che strasudavano acquetta, cottura e scelta e della carne decisamente errati , una gomma da masticare; fatto notare il problema , dopo che il cameriere l’aveva riportata in cucina, esce un ragazzo, credo uno dei cuochi dicendo e tagliando davanti a noi la nostra bistecca, tagliandola a pezzettini piccoli e mangiarla davanti a noi dicendo che era buona e non dura, dicendo questo,neanche lui riusciva a deglutire; scena tragicomica, mi dispiace perché c’ero già stato con i miei colleghi in passato e non era assolutamente così. Per ora sconsiglio vivamente una visita ! Cortesia 10 cucina 0! Ps dopo la risposta del cuoco che risponde, non so perché invece del proprietario, se vuoi sentirti dire che è tutto buono dimostralo con i fatti, poi secondo te,perdiamo tempo ad uscire a fare i Masterchef perché non abbiamo nulla da fare??? Quando avremmo potuto passare una bella serata io e le altre persone quella sera? Cerca di scrivere almeno la verità, se i piatti erano buoni tornavano indietro secondo te??? Il rispetto che dici, che chiedi, impara a darlo alle materie prime ed ai clienti a cui li servi , questo è il rispetto! Se te la sei presa sul personale, ribatti, critica fai quello che sentì più giusto fare per la tua autostima è un paese libero, libero però è anche il mio pensiero e quello di tutti gli altri.

One of the best Italian restaurant in Kreuzkölln. I am Italian and i am also a restaurant owner and i know my fair share. We ate trippa alla Parmigiana and lamb in red wine sauce and everything was SPOT ON. Thank you very much for the hospitality.

Entrare e sentirsi in Italia. Sapori unici Incredibile selezione di vini Simpatia e cortesia Provato più volte, ti riescono sempre a stupire. Consigliatissima!!! P.s Fiorentina eccellente

Se vivi a Berlino, non hai una famiglia che ti mandi i famosi pacchi da giù, non hai mai imparato a farti la tua pasta preferita in casa e soprattutto sei disposto a pagare un prezzo stellare per farti passare la nostalgia del Belpaese, questo è il posto che fa per te. 500 euro in 9 per un primo a testa, un antipasto e mezzo da dividere, 4 bottiglie di rosso (le più abbordabili), qualche aperitivo, un paio di amari, un paio di dolci. A questa cifra erano stati erroneamente aggiunte 2 bottiglie d' acqua, prontamente depennate. Un errore ci può stare, ma è più accettabile quando l'acqua costa 3 euro, non 6. Menù disordinato senza distinzione tra primi e secondi. Questi ultimi, quasi del tutto assenti, lasciano spazio alla pasta fresca tipica della tradizione regionale del/dei gestore/i. La carta dei vini è ampia, amplissima, scritta a penna e con prezzi che arrivano oltre i 300 euro senza scendere sotto i 30, con ricarichi che si aggirano sul 200%. Le prime due bottiglie ci sono state portate al tavolo già aperte e, no, non si fa, neanche se il tuo locale si finge un'osteria. Non si fa se pretendi anche di vendere bottiglie di Barolo e Barbaresco a 350 euro. I vini naturali, triste trend del decennio, sono fortemente presenti (fortemente per i miei gusti, si intende) e non vengono segnalati: questa la ritengo una scorrettezza nei confronti di chi, come me, ama il vino ma non le filosofie magico-decresciste di una certa enologia. Ho avuto modo di farlo notare all'esuberante proprietario, non era ovviamente d'accordo e va bene così. Il mio piatto, dei tortelli alla zucca a 18 euro, era davvero ben eseguito e per questo sono ancora indeciso se mettere due o tre stelle. Abbiamo diviso un antipasto grande (lol) e uno piccolo composti da qualche salume, qualche pezzo di formaggio, un paio di verdure grigliate, una piadina divisa in (pochi) spicchi. Qualità da supermercato di fascia media a un prezzo iper galattico. Solo il comprensibile bisogno di recuperare risorse finanziarie dopo i vari lockdown può giustificare il conto finale. Non la qualità, non la quantità, non la distanza da "casa". Morale: io vivo a Berlino, ricevo pacchi da casa e so fare la pasta fatta in casa. Non ho neanche tanta nostalgia. Per questo, alla fine, di stelle ne metto due.

Scrivo di nuovo solo per rispondere al gentile gestore che ha replicato alla mia recensione. Se va contro il regolamento siete liberi di segnalarla. Caro gestore, premesso che sono 55 euro a testa, e non 50 (5 euro a testa in meno per 9 persone credo che avrebbero fatto la differenza, per voi), più le sostanziose mance che abbiamo civilmente lasciato, il conto non era la somma di "primi, secondi, antipasti ecc". Abbiamo preso UN primo a testa, visto che i secondi erano praticamente assenti quella sera, e abbiamo diviso UN antipasto grande (definito tale solo da voi) e UNO piccolo in 9. Non tutti hanno preso aperitivi e amari, e ricordo solo 2 dolci. Siamo quindi ben lontani dal luculliano pasto che tenti di descrivere. A proposito del vino: ho evitato semplicemente, interrompendo il tuo appassionato racconto, di farti aprire inutilmente due bottiglie, visto che sembra essere una consuetudine portare il vino aperto a tavola. Ti ho educatamente interrotto, me ne sono anche scusato, immagino che a te piaccia intrattenere i clienti (meglio quelli che son d'accordo con te), ma a me davvero le fiabe sul vino magico non interessano. Per concludere: io mangio fuori tutti i weekend, anche se a te, comprensibilmente, chi critica il fatto di dover pagare 55 euro per un primo, 2 fette di salumi e 2 bicchieri di vino, sembra un povero servo della gleba abituato a nutrirsi di pane nero. E sono davvero pochi i ristoranti in città che possono permettersi di avere quei i prezzi. Il vostro locale a mio parere non è fra quelli. Ma avete il vostro seguito, te ne do atto, e l'italianità si vende sempre bene. Soprattutto con le chiacchiere. Buon lavoro.

Such a small cozy place, nice relaxing atmosphere of family. Amazing hosts and great food, awesome collection of wines.

Die besten Cappelletti in brodo der Stadt!!!

L' Osteria Sippi è speciale. L' atmosfera accogliente, il cibo della tradizione italiana fatto bene e i vini sono davvero scelti con passione e criterio. Top!

sippi, you have my heart! Grazie for the always yummy food, wine and good vibes. 😋

Tagliatelle mit Rinderbruststreifen, unglaublich!

Very good experience! The food overall was very nice. They have an extensive wine menu but most importantly the owner cares about it and advises you on what to pick. A lot of negative reviews are related to their choice to opt for 2G regulation (From people who are responsible for restaurant being forced to close every winter).

Trattoria sans surprise véritable Plats bon sans plus Beaucoup trop cher pour le coin Carte des vins sur un bout de papier illisible à des prix vraiment délirants Pas de vins en dessous de 30 euros Avons pris une bouteille avec un goût de bouchon évident. Serveur un peu difficile à convaincre : Pas très professionnel Service très très agité !! Bref endroit moyen

Carefully prepared delicious food and impeccable and novel wine selection so good, plus I feel a bit of my sadness at not being in Italia subside when I come here. Pasta handmade and delicious seafood/meats!

Lovely Italian Osteria run by Italians, offering specialties from all Italy. The atmosphere is cozy, the service is amazing and polite (maybe a bit under staffed for a Friday night). The mixed antipasto with piadina, cold cuts and cheese is recommended as a starter. As main courses they offer typical dishes from Italy (not so easy to find in Berlin) such as Trippa alla Fiorentina, Baccalà (codfish) with Polenta, Passatelli in broth, Risotto and much more. Large selection of wines - ask recommendations to the waiter, he’ll knows a lot about wines and he will suggest a good wine. Pricey, but worth it.

Evvivaaaa!! Meraviglia!! Posto eccezionale!!

Super!!! Libagioni di ineccepibile valore. Servizio surreal impeccabile!! Vino .... Meraviglie!! Nessuno a Berlino.. Grazie Sippi!!!
