Restaurant Pasta & Passione in Berlin

Pizza and pasta are very tasty. The dining room is a bit cramped. The path to the restroom is steep, so drink with caution.

Bruschetta tasted a bit bland and the pizza was ok, but didn't taste as hoped. No Italian service. I was culinary disappointed.

First ordered bruschetta, it was so dry and unseasoned. We didn't get any olive oil/balsamic vinegar like the other tables. The pasta was really nicely prepared but was very oily and the noodles were hard. We also had to constantly add salt because it tasted so bland. When we asked to pay, we were often ignored and the waiters just walked past us.

Simply fantastic! 🍝✨ The food is very tasty, the pasta is perfectly prepared and the sauces are full of flavor - a real piece of Italy in Berlin! 🇮🇹 The boss and the waiters are incredibly nice and attentive, you immediately feel welcome and well looked after. We always enjoy coming back, no matter the occasion - whether it's a birthday, a date or a cozy meal with friends. Have already recommended it to all of our friends and they loved it just as much! Definitely a favorite restaurant! ❤️🍷

Super tasty, fresh pasta variations...

I ordered the chef's suggestion of cheese ravioli with pumpkin sauce and truffles, the truffles had no flavor. And raviolis taste like frozen store bought.

best italian in this area. great chef, great service and very kids friendly

Het eten was wel ok maar allemaal een beetje liefdeloos. In deze hippe omgeving zijn ongetwijfeld betere restaurants te vinden.

The service was good and quick and the atmosphere is also pleasant, although the tables are a bit very close together. I was disappointed with the food, even though that's always very subjective, the pizza wasn't to my taste and the lasagna was just okay. Too bad for me.

Definitely the worst pizza I've eaten in the last 20 years. Totally pale and cold, no tomato sauce, the cheese (looked like analogue cheese) not melted, the topping thrown on carelessly (walnuts), parmesan shards like wood chips and everything together absolutely tasteless. A saltless rice cake has more flavor than this pizza. I couldn't eat this cold tasteless thing. The lasagna was dripping with fat and, despite all the fat, absolutely tasteless. Maybe the non-Italian temporary chefs should buy an Italian spice mix so that you can at least feel a hint of flavor. Diagonally opposite there are two pizzerias where you pay a lot less for a lot more taste. The service was friendly, but the seating is so cramped that you practically elbow your neighbor in the side and you inevitably overhear all the conversations from the table next to you. In short: a restaurant for tourists and newcomers, Berliners can find an Italian restaurant on every other corner where the food tastes much better.

Friendly atmosphere, delicious food, great location. Nona is my favorite waitress👍🏻

Food was nice, service was appalling. After finding a hair in my salad, they bought it back out to me on a napkin to rudely tell us it was my hair. I honestly couldn’t believe the cheek what kind of business does that.

Pizza was ordinary. The service is fast. There was uncomfortable seating as the tables were very close together. Still, the ambience was nice and we enjoyed the homemade wine.

The homemade pasta was excellent.

Great quality of food and service!!!

Det var dejligt at være ude at spise. De var søde, gav extra rødvin og grappa da de desværre glemte forretten. Men det var altså bedre da vi var der for 1 år siden.

Es sieht äußerlich aus wie italienisches Essen. Italienisches Essen hat Geschmack, Aroma, Würze. Das hier ist ohne Aroma, ohne Geschmack. Es ist nicht so, dass es schlecht schmeckt, es ist so, dass es gar nicht schmeckt. Es gibt keine professionelle Küche, keinen professionellen Koch.

Place is small and cute, nice atmosphere. The food is ok but that's all. They make their own pasta but that doesn't mean they're amazing. I had the truffle tagliatelle and they were a bit too thick, also the serving is usually done differently for this type. The service was also not the friendliest.

Everything was right here. Delicious homemade pasta, friendly service, good prices. Furthermore, the kitchen has a very long time. Gladly again!

Very good Italian restaurant with a lot of choice and quality, however the price is a little high.

Nice atmosphere and food was very tasty. The service ladies were very attentive and friendly

The restaurant has relatively tight seating. Because of the many guests, very loud. The open kitchen means there is not enough ventilation. It smelled very strongly of burnt fat. Food very good. Staff made an effort.

We ate mussels and they were incredibly tasty... Greetings to this gentleman who masters the pan like a Sen master masters his sword.

Very good pasta dishes. Friendly service and good ambience.

A nice shop with a cozy atmosphere. You can even watch cooking through the glass pane to the kitchen. The service was very nice and the food was delicious. The homemade noodles were really tasty.

The food was really good, it was busy but not noisy in the restaurant! BUT I had to look forever for a free parking space. The restaurant can't change that, it makes a visit tiring and public transport isn't always an alternative. Clearly BVG before car!

Homemade noodles. A great service. Delicious food. Highly recommended! And the homemade pasta is often presented and shown. Made fresh every day!

Great service, nice ambience and super tasty spagetti carbonara.

On Saturdays at 9 p.m. four people got a table without registering. Friendly welcome and very good food. Can only be recommended!

Was there for lunch and was warmly welcomed! Had pasta cabonara and can only say it was incredibly delicious! Great portion, great ambience, very friendly staff! And all at a more than acceptable price. So exactly how you imagine an Italian restaurant! Definite recommendation!

Hello dear Restaurant Pasta & Passione, Unfortunately my last visit wasn't so pleasant, the owner is nice and accommodating but unfortunately when I eat at an Italian restaurant I want real authentic Italian cuisine and dishes, the fact that in an Italian restaurant the owner may not be Italian is actually not a problem All the staff were Italian, unfortunately they didn't seem to be and I'm a bit disappointed with the actually good pasta that was homemade and al dente but... Let's get to the points that could be improved: - the sauce of the truffle paste (buttercream) is far too strong and far too much of it just floats in it and unfortunately tastes like tube fat. - Salt & pepper was also missing in the dish - Unfortunately the truffles and the taste were not there - it only tasted like butter and tube fat... Regarding the good points: - Presentation great (visual) - Waiter and boss are nice and friendly - Amount of parmesan as extra is satisfactory - Bread is fresh and delicious One last drawback… At a real Italian restaurant there is always olive oil and balsamic vinegar on the table before the main course so that it can be eaten with the bread. Unfortunately, this was not available on our table.

The pasta itself is very tasty and you can really tell that it is homemade BUT the sauce from the truffle pasta was really not good. I've eaten truffle pasta in many places in Berlin and in my opinion this was the worst. It says butter sauce but I didn't expect the noodles to be swimming in butter. Unfortunately, the truffle taste wasn't intense either.

I had pizza, the tomato sauce came from a tetrapak, I thought I wasn't seeing properly. There was nothing special in terms of taste. The ham on the pizza tasted strange, at least it wasn't Italian ham. I'm not coming back. The service was nice though.

The reception and greeting were nice and accommodating. The restaurant was full. The food was delicious. The prices are not excessive. Gladly again.

Sehr leckere Pizza Diavolo und selbstgemachte Pasta mit Pesto. Freundliche Bedienung. Wir haben ohne Reservierung noch einen Tisch bekommen

Lasagna, pizza and mussels were very tasty. Service friendly and present. Price ok for Prenzlauer Berg.

Delicious food! Vegetarian lasagna was really excellent and so was the Pinot Grigio ✨☺️ cozy atmosphere in a very nice street. Recommended 👍🏼👍🏼

Everything homemade and delicious!!!

Wonderful Italian restaurant with a family atmosphere; Despite making a reservation at very short notice, we were still able to get a table for three. The unobstructed view of the kitchen increases the anticipation of the heavenly meal. The meat was cooked perfectly and the service was top notch. Absolutely recommended!

Beautiful food, fantastic host.

Stopped in today by chance for a pizza and a tiramisu. Simply good!!! Thanks for the hospitality

La comida era buena - la pasta estaba hecha a sí misma y la calidad era buena - la presentación en el plato no era especial - pero sabroso. Gran cantidad de fideos. Los precios eran un poco altos para ese lugar. Pero el servicio era muy malo - camarera grosera perezosa. Mientras tomaba el orden, ella parecía jugar en su computadora, no nos miró mientras tomaba el orden. No hay palabras agradables ni amabilidad en absoluto. No pedí postre o más bebidas. Gran comida en una zona llena de gente con mal servicio. Pero pasta casera italiana

The best Italian restaurant in all of Berlin!!! They COOKED and I left no crumbs.

It was my first day of vacation in Berlin. The beer garden was cozy. The service was great. The homemade pasta was very tasty.

Hemos visitado dos veces esta semana y destacadas ensaladas, pasta, pizza y servicio. Un almuerzo encantador y nuestro camarero fue una alegría y tan servicial. Gracias y volveremos!

Absolutely recommended. Delicious dishes, fresh pasta, salads etc. In summer you can sit outside nicely. The service is attentive and very friendly.

When the weather is hot, it is also hot inside the restaurant. But the pizza is very tasty and the staff is friendly and polite.

We tried both Pizza and pasta here. Both were quite tasty and prepared with good quality ingredients. The pizza dough was amazing. A gentleman served us very professionally even though the restaurant was full and packed. We felt so welcomed and enjoyed our food. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Great pasta! Specially the salmon

Nice restaurant with decent food.

Staff very arrogant and rude. Avoid it. Edit 2024: It seems the staff is still ridden with rude and unwelcoming people. Surprised to see this surivided a pandemic and is still afloat.

I unfortunately got served a small piece of glass alongside with my lasagna.

I actually avoid Kastanienallee when I want to go out to eat. Too many posers and too many tourist traps. However, with Pasta & Passione last night I had to throw all my prejudices overboard. The store is a real discovery. Price/performance ratio is spot on. The service was nice and the pasta was really fresh, homemade and very tasty. The restaurant ensures that Kastanienallee is better than its reputation!

Good atmosphere, good pasta, good service, good cocktails... really recommended, it is advisable to reserve a table as it was always full

Nach Recherche auf Tripadvisor haben wir uns für dieses Restaurant entschieden und wurden nicht entäuscht. Wir haben einen Platz draußen bekommen. Für Kinder gab es kleingeschnittene Spaghetti mit Bolognese in einer extra Schale. Die Kinder haben das Essen quasi verschlungen. Wir hatten einmal Nudeln mit Trüffel und mit Hänchebbrust. Beides war sehr lecker . Die 4 essen haben zusammen ca 50 Euro gekostet . Das Restaurant hat eine kleine Auswahl an Nachtischen. Das waren große Portionen und unsere Pana cota sehr lecker . Alles in allem ein sehr gelungener Abend.

Good pizza with OK service. However, Pizza Diavolo can get better strength without pure chili. Could have been better but could very well be worse.

Great Italian! Far ahead in terms of taste. Little beer selection, but fair prices for Pberg. We had a bit of trouble getting our order but everything was full. Great job from the waiters under the circumstances. Personally, I would like a little more Bella Italia feeling, but that's a matter of taste.

Good food and ambience, very friendly service

Great restaurant with a beautiful terrace right on Kastanienallee! The pizzas taste excellent and the prices are fair. Also highly recommended for a quick lunch.

Don't come here! We got poisoned very badly, and the waiters are completely rude.

Was delicious. You can also sit outside nicely.

Very, very tasty, I can only recommend it

Six of us ate here yesterday and had to wait a while until one of the two waiters finally wanted to take our order. Food came relatively quickly + the portions are large, but each of our dishes was quite oversalted (Carbonara, Lasagne, Pollo è funghi) except for the salami pizza. Unfortunately, it was clear to the waitress that she was in a bit of a bad mood and didn't really care for us, although we were easy to serve. We've eaten here before and there was hardly anything to complain about, but in the future I would prefer to go to another Italian restaurant because there are much better ones, such as Pizza Vira on Warschauer Str., which offers equally large portions for a cheaper price. The food tastes great too!

Since 2014 I live in the neighborhood and go there from time to time. What changed? Nothing!! Since more than 10 years same good quality of food, same friendly people who serve you. Thanks for being (and staying) around 🙏

Homemade pasta is super delicious!

We were there spontaneously for lunch and shared a dish. The food came very quickly and was very tasty. There was also fresh warm bread. We felt very comfortable, gladly again!

There was only oil on the plate!

I was treated with a lot of disrespect! We had just sat down and the attendant came to ask us if we were going to eat there and then if we would pay for it. Even after all this, she said that we could only order from the pizza menu. We felt completely uncomfortable and left without eating in this GARBAGE place and service! I would never pay to eat in such a disgusting place that treats people like that for free! Foot

Trufle past just good. Mare monti and gnochi not good

I very rarely write a review, looking back on the day I didn't like it. Since we were under time pressure to miss our table reservation, I called, someone answered immediately and I was able to change the time to 15 minutes later without any problems. After arrival, when we asked, they provided us with a vase for the flowers, which we had with us, which was nice. The chairs outside were uncomfortable. Let's get to the food: my spaghetti was still hard and the sauce was quite salty, whereas the sauce in my friend's dish wasn't very aromatic. I was about to complain about what was being served to me. I've never been served hard spaghetti! The bruschetta bread was very dry and looks very sad. The waitress charged me for a tip even though I didn't say anything. I just left it at that because I definitely won't go there again, there are definitely better and more authentic Italian restaurants in Berlin!

They gave us very big portions but my pasta carbonara was great!

Heerlijk gegeten, leuke plaats binnen met de ramen open waardoor je een lekker buitengevoel hebt. Verse pasta, heerlijk huiswijn en vriendelijk personeel. Zeker een bezoek waard

A very successful, caring and delicious business👏👏

Horrible staff! So rude and they even gave themselves a tip without me asking for it. Would never go there again

Been there several times. I had everything from super tasty to “sporty” salted. Sometimes the pasta tasted very good, then again there was sooo little pasta, but there was a lot of side dishes and sauce, so that everything was floating on the plate and you were somehow "nicely full" for the moment, but nothing more and about 30 minutes. later I was hungry again. The pizza is homemade, you can taste it, you can see it. However, the knives that come with it are so blunt that it's just tiring to eat the pizza "sensibly". You would certainly be better off with a spoon than these "knives". That's no fun, but it takes away from the joy of eating. :( The waiters are sometimes friendly, sometimes annoyed. It also depends on the day of the week. Incorrectly delivered drinks are simply poured over, which is not what you would expect. That's why the pasta is homemade - and depending on who is in the open kitchen, you either have a full plate or go home hungry. The restaurant is otherwise decorated with large pictures, which, with the best will in the world, cannot hide the fact that the restaurant is NOT run by Italians. They are more Turks/Lebanese/Arabs. This is particularly noticeable when it comes to the choice of music. You feel like you're in a bazaar, like you're in an Italian restaurant. All in all ok, if it gets more expensive the prices are no longer justified and I'd rather go to Wilmersdorf to the Italian restaurant.

mi sono sempre trovato bene, cibo ottimo e personale gentile e disponibile. Una garanzia per quanto mi riguarda. Ambiente accogliente

A restaurant that makes its homemade pasta! The dish was good and plentiful, but lacked a little seasoning. The service is very long, even staggered (up to 30 minutes between two people at the same table)...

Rude staff and I had to wait 40 minutes for my pizza while people came after me and their food was served earlier.

Nice authentic Italian kitchen in a trendy part of Berlin. The pasta as well as the pizza were fresh made.

Incredibly delicious! Large portions, friendly staff.

We stopped for lunch at Pasta & Passion on a Sunday and were very happy to have done so. Feels like quite a traditional Italian place, with some cool pictures on the walls, and good service. The portions are generous. We have rosemary garlic bread and charcuterie, followed by a Mafiosi pizza and rigatoni with gorgonzola and walnuts. Overall, very satisfied.

Delicious food and nice service!

Well, the kitchen was open very late in the evening and the portions were stable. Asparagus soup was very tasty, the best of 3 dishes we ordered.

Immense choice and so I should actually come back a few more times... Unfortunately I only have one day left in Berlin. Delicious food, friendly service and nice setting...

Fantastic food & service as always😀

Fast and friendly service. Asparagus soup very tasty

Excellent pasta and pizza. A sure value.

Both pizza and pasta were bland and subpar. We had calzone and pomodoro. It wasn't terrible, but not something I would recommend to anyone.

Very delicious pizzas, very well served and good price. I RECOMMEND IT

Good food, but the waiter seemed angry and was rude. We didn't get the drinks we ordered, but they were on the bill. She took our plates before we had chewed and brought the bill before we had asked for it and before we had drunk our wine. She was quite bossy about us tipping, which we didn't think she deserved.

very bad service, waiter was super ride and unfriendly, 0 recommendations

Every time I have the opportunity I visit this charming restaurant, which stands out for its exceptional menu and the warmth of its owner. Particularly noteworthy is the salmon tagliatelle, a dish that always impresses with its freshness, the perfect balance of flavors and the exquisite preparation. The salmon, tender and juicy, harmonizes perfectly with the gentle creaminess of the sauce and the perfectly al dente tagliatelle. It's this dish that keeps me coming back week after week. But what makes this restaurant truly unforgettable is the owner's unparalleled hospitality. With a sincere appreciation for every family that visits his establishment, he creates an atmosphere that radiates warmth and warmth. His way of responding to guests' needs and wishes makes them feel truly welcome. This combination of excellent cuisine and the owner's sincere friendliness makes every visit a special experience that will be remembered. ❤️❤️❤️

The Italian restaurant offers a cozy atmosphere in a relatively small but charming dining room. The typical Italian music in the background creates an authentic atmosphere, while the pizza and pasta are prepared right in front of the guests in a showroom. The pizza was particularly tasty and the price-performance ratio was very good. We enjoyed our visit and would like to come back.

Very tasty and everything freshly prepared.

We had a lovely evening. Good food and the cocktails were delicious. FOOD was delicious.

It's not hard to find Italian restaurants in this part of Berlin, so I consider myself lucky to have found this one. There were no recommendations for me to go by, just looking for a dinner place close to my hotel. The aroma from this location and the fact it was packed with locals brought me inside. Guidebooks generally advise finding small neighborhood places with lots of locals and that formula worked for this spot. Pizza would have been an obvious choice, but instead I elected one of their pasta dishes for my first meal. Spaghetti with prawns. Prepared perfectly for my taste. I returned two nights later for their rendition of lasagna, and it was apparently a more authentic version without the defined layers, but more of a loose combination of the sheet pasta and meat sauce and cheese baked together. The pricing was reasonable, the service attentive, friendly and efficient. There were lots and lots of pizzas being ordered for dine in and take out. I have to think the quality was responsible for that. If you're in this part of the city, and want Italian that seems to be authentic, this is a worthy choice

Sehr schönes Lokal, extrem freundliche Bedienung und gute Pizze. Das Preis- Leistungsverhältnis ist sehr gut. Ideal, dass man auch um 22:00 noch Essen kann!

Super tasty pasta with a great price. Shrimp, porcini mushroom and white wine source makes a magical combination for gourmets, and homemade pasta. What more do you want? In my opinion, the restaurant deserves a much better rating - a 4.8 is appropriate.

So delicious, and homemade pasta where you can watch. The waiters are old school, classic Italian charming. And prices have remained stable despite inflation. I love this store

Good Italian restaurant in a good location. Both pizza and pasta tasted good and were also reasonably priced. The pasta even comes from our own production. The service was quick and direct and humorous, it actually felt a bit like in Italy. One star is deducted because the restaurant doesn't really stand out from other good Italian restaurants in Berlin. That makes it interchangeable for me but that doesn't make it bad at all. If I'm nearby I would still come back.
