Pasta Davini

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

Good, Honest Italian Cooking

At Pasta Davini on Heiligkreuzgasse in Frankfurt am Main, the philosophy is straightforward: bring Italian home cooking to the table in all its freshness and authenticity. The kitchen works exclusively with the finest organic ingredients, prepared by Italian home cooks following original recipes. The result is food that reflects how people actually eat in Italy — not a stylised version of it, but the real thing.

That commitment to authenticity has not gone unnoticed. Gambero Rosso, Italy's most respected food and wine guide, awarded Pasta Davini 2 Forks in 2023 — a mark of quality that places this small Frankfurt address among a select group of Italian restaurants recognised for genuine excellence outside Italy.

A Space for Private Occasions

Beyond the regular dinner service — Wednesday through Saturday evenings — Pasta Davini offers the full space for private hire for groups of up to 30 people. For those who prefer to celebrate at home, the team will come to you: they cook for smaller gatherings on-site, bringing their housemade specialities directly to your kitchen. Corporate events are also catered, with live cooking in front of guests.

What to Expect

The atmosphere is intimate and unhurried, suited to an evening where the food takes centre stage. Reservations are taken by phone from 16:30 on opening days, and groups of six or more are asked for a deposit. Both cash and card are accepted. Parking is available at the nearby Parkhaus am Gericht on Klapperfeldstraße.
