The story
At Via Monte Napoleone in Frankfurt am Main, the kitchen serves contemporary Italian cooking anchored by daily handcrafted pasta. Staff roll noodles each morning using varied shapes and vegetable-infused doughs that shift with available produce. These fresh creations feed directly into the piatti da condividere, shared plates arranged on central tiers for tableside passing. This communal dining style recently earned a two-ladle rating from the Schlemmer Atlas in 2026.
The lounge area channels northern Italian drinking traditions through a lineup of bitter cocktails and herbaceous liqueurs. Bartenders build standard Negronis and Adonis alongside bright mixes featuring prosecco, citrus, and fresh herbs. A dedicated selection of regional grappa, vermouth, and amaro closes out the meal, usually followed by espresso pulled from a Sanremo Renegade Café Racer machine that runs until midnight.
The dining room mirrors the cosmopolitan spirit of Milan while staying grounded in local everyday life. Carefully selected materials, distinguished forms, and muted tones create a calm backdrop for conversation. Large windows frame the busy street outside, keeping the space connected to Frankfurt’s urban rhythm even during quiet afternoon hours.
