ITA Bistro

I visited ITA Bistro recently with a friend. We walked in without a reservation and were seated right away, which was a pleasant surprise. We chose the chef’s sharing menu, which offered a good cross-section of the kitchen’s style. The sashimi-style starter was a standout. It was bright, clean, and lifted by a citrusy sauce that really worked. A clear highlight. Other dishes didn’t quite land. The egg salad on potato felt flat and forgettable. The spiral rotolo with goat cheese and pine nuts was fussy and overthought, more style than substance. The roast pork with chimichurri brought things back on track. The meat was perfectly cooked and the sauce was excellent, but the dish needed something like bread or tacos to do justice to that beautiful sauce. Dessert was an upscale dulce de leche with marshmallow cream, and it was great. Sweet, smooth, and nicely balanced. Service was prompt and friendly. The wine recommendation was also solid. Overall, a good experience with clear potential, even if not every plate delivered.

Atmosphere is very welcoming, the food is surprising, and the wine list is exceptional. Staff is kind and help complete the whole experience. The unique Ita is perfect for a date or dinner with friends. It’s worth waiting for a table at this place. I also want to highlight the relax, competent & friendly service from Luca which made us want to come back!

Insanely good with every sharing plate a winner! The people are genuinely fantastic, making you feel right at home. And the drinks? Impeccable. Great place to hang and eat with friends. Can’t wait to go back.

Lovely bistro with a short but thought through menu - enjoyed every bite. Make sure to make a reservation because the space fills up quickly. The staff was warm, kind and attentive and gave us great suggestions on which dishes to try. All the plates are meant to be shared as they should (!) but the portions are also very fair. Each dish had something special about them so it’s hard to select a favourite, but definitely consult the staff because they have great recommendations - plus the wine list is very nice!

ITA has easily become one of my top 3 favorite restaurants in Berlin. I love their vibrant, innovative menu—where cuisines are playfully mixed and they’re not afraid to embrace bold flavors. This is elevated comfort food at its finest. My all-time favorite? The “Flauta.” I have to order it every time I go. Their bread and butter are of very good quality—though I personally prefer a more sour bread, I understand that’s a matter of taste. The butter is delicious, but the portion could be a bit more generous. The pavlova was lovely, although slightly disappointing as I was expecting that soft, marshmallow-like center you get with a classic pavlova. That said, the Sencha flavor was a beautiful touch, and the meringue melted in the mouth. I’d also love to see a higher-quality tea served. It’s the final note of the meal and could really elevate the overall impression. As a non-drinker, I really appreciate that their non-alcoholic option isn’t just a lemonade or Saft. It was so good, it actually inspired me to look up the brand and buy a bottle for home. The staff is super attentive, and the vibe is effortlessly chill, even though what’s coming out of the kitchen feels like pure culinary art.

ITA was fantastic! The food was top tier, service was excellent and the atmosphere was amazing. Some of the best food I’ve had in Berlin. Definitely on the pricier side but it’s a good spot for celebration dinners :)

We sat outside. I loved every dish. It was fantastic. I like that they don’t have so many dishes but the ones that they have are really nice and delicious. The presentation and the colours were very appealing. I also like my non-alcoholic elderflower drink. Always good to have non-alcoholic options. I would definitely come again 💕 The deserts were also absolutely fantastic.

Great place for an informal dinner with friends. Nice wine list and very friendly environment. As it supposed to be: the food is the focus and it’s very well executed. A nicely build variety of different flavors on the menu.
