Welcome to MŌDAN.MNL
Tatler Dining 20 (2023, 2024)
Tatler's Dining Awards 2023: Best New Restaurant
Tatler's Rising Star 2023: Chef Jorge Mendez



MŌDAN means Modern in Japanese. We serve a progressive Japanese Degustation Menu focused on local and Japan-flown ingredients with the use of Neo-traditional Japanese techniques cultivated by Chef Jorge Mendez.

Our restaurant has an intimate omakase-style set-up. We are located in Cubao, Quezon City.
We are usually open from Wednesdays to Sundays, with 2 seatings at 5:30pm and 8:30pm


CURRENT MENU: FREE HAND

“Free Hand” is more than a process—it’s an invitation to express oneself without boundaries, to let creativity unfold without the constraints of reference or tradition. It is a journey of self-discovery, where each dish reflects a distinct and personal perspective.

As we reflect on the evolution of our menu series, we find that this latest chapter has become a true expression of who we are. It has been both liberating and fulfilling to challenge the conventions we once followed. In doing so, we respectfully reconsider what it means to follow the rules—choosing instead to reimagine them altogether.

Think of it as adding the perfect seasoning—not just to food, but to thought, bringing out something unexpectedly bold and clever.

Let us not merely bend the rules.
Let us break them—beautifully.

– Jorge
