Bonvivant Cocktail Bistro in Berlin

We were there for brunch. The dishes were exceptionally good, imaginative, but perfectly flavorful. Great, very friendly service. Absolutely top recommendation! Foodies might wonder why only one star. We'll be back and are already looking forward to it.

Nice place, service was very slow, food was ok, coffee came with oat milk without the menu or the server saying that they don’t have normal milk.

We had a wonderful evening with many delicious snacks. The service was extremely friendly and attentive, and we would be happy to return.

Michelin starred vegan restaurant where natural colors, animal-friendly flavors, and sustainable liquids bang and mix in your delighted mouth. Some of the edible flowers are picked in a Berlin public park, pine needles from a neighbor's tree, and the chef grows his yuzu on the balcony. Not only is the approach thoughtful with hyperlocal ingredients but the result is spectacular. Try the pairing, with or without alcohol, and don't miss Chef Berger's signature dish - burnt broccoli and "Parmesan" tuiles.

We went to the vegetarian/vegan Michelin-starred restaurant Bonvivant Cocktail Bistro for both brunch and fine dining – and both were simply amazing! You don't even know where to begin: the combinations of ingredients are creative, sophisticated, and simply perfectly balanced. Each course was an experience in itself – and you can see that in the photos. And then there were the cocktails! Not only a visual highlight, but also a taste sensation of the highest quality – incredibly delicious and exceptionally well-crafted. The ambiance is stylish, modern, and cozy at the same time – you immediately feel at home. We would also like to particularly highlight the service: attentive, professional, warm, and highly trained. If you're looking for special vegetarian or vegan cuisine in Berlin – you can't go wrong here. Absolutely recommend it!

The best restaurant with exclusively vegan food that we've been to several times. Attentive service with only young employees ‼️😃 We can wholeheartedly recommend Bonvivant ‼️

We went to Bonvivant for holiday brunch. The absolute highlight was the 'Crispy Fried Oyster Mushroom,' which was incredibly delicious and I highly recommend it. The 'Eggs Benedict on Sourdough Bread' was also very tasty, but a bit overpriced in my opinion. The 'Smashing Granola' and 'Brioche Pancake' (all in the photos) are very interesting and good. We were a little unlucky with our drinks. Unfortunately, they arrived after the main course, and I found them a bit watery. So, unfortunately, I can't recommend the 'Vincent Spritz' and 'Way Better Than Aperol,' but the drinks menu has other promising options, maybe next time ;)

Can’t put stars as thought it’s too much price for us £150 for five small courses

Excellent brunch. Good creative food and drinks run by a passionate team in the kitchen and in service. Service is also very good and not your typical Berliner style. Also love the decoration. Need to come back for lunch / dinner.

Had Not a French toast and a Brioche pancake (shared between two). Food was so good and fresh. Really good coffee and cocktails too.

The 7-course menu was a magnificent treat! The service team was absolutely professional! The 1-Michelin star is absolutely deserved, and there's still room for improvement!

Everything was great. Service was excellent. Would recommend.

A really good brunch spot with top-notch vegan options. The bread with crunchy oyster mushrooms tasted fantastic! Good service, I'd be happy to come back. Reservations are best on weekends...

I loved it and recommend it to all my friends! I had such a great experience, both for the delicious food and the very welcoming and prepared staff. They accommodated all my allergies and delighted me with the tastiest vegetarian food! Thank you!

Overall, breakfast at this restaurant was positive. The decor is tasteful, and the atmosphere is elegant yet relaxed. We particularly enjoyed the drinks. Unfortunately, my personal dish, the Crispy Fried Oyster Mushroom, was a disappointment. The mushrooms were significantly oversalted, which I didn't like. It's a shame, because the concept of the dish sounded promising. I would come back, but order something different next time.

A wonderful evening at Bonvivant! The menu was excellently put together and the flavors were truly impressive. I was particularly impressed by the creative cocktail pairings – perfectly matched to the individual courses and a real highlight. The service was warm, attentive, and pleasantly unobtrusive. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable experience with great attention to detail. We'll definitely be back!

Disappointing Brunch Experience – Not Worth the Michelin Mention We chose this restaurant for brunch because it was listed in the Michelin guide and had high expectations. Initially, things looked promising — the coffee was good and the ambiance seemed pleasant. However, the experience quickly went downhill. We ordered shakshuka and eggs Benedict. Despite the restaurant being far from full and at least 6–7 servers visibly idle, it took 25 minutes for our food to arrive. When it did, the shakshuka was inedible — the taste was strange and off-putting. My boyfriend took one bite, called the server, and asked for it to be replaced. We asked what could be prepared quickly, and were told eggs Benedict. The eggs Benedict I had was served cold and drenched in hollandaise sauce. The flavor was mediocre at best — heavy, fatty, and underwhelming. After another 30-minute wait, the second eggs Benedict arrived, and it was again cold and just “okay.” It honestly felt like they were waiting for a chicken to lay a fresh egg. To make matters worse, when the bill arrived, we were charged for the shakshuka — a dish we sent back after one bite. The server’s reasoning? “It was cooked, so you have to pay for it.” This was shocking. After a 10-minute argument, he finally agreed to remove it from the bill, but that should never have been a point of debate in the first place. The bathroom floor was sticky, like it hadn’t been cleaned in days, which further tainted the impression. While the general atmosphere was fine, the overall service and food quality were nowhere near Michelin level. The staff lacked basic customer service skills, and the experience felt unprofessional and frustrating. We left very disappointed and confused as to how this place made it into the Michelin guide. Definitely would not recommend — and we won’t be returning.

My partner and I went there for brunch. First of all, the food was really bad. I initially ordered a green shakshuka but didn’t like the taste, so I asked the waitress to change my order and bring something different that could be prepared faster. I chose the Eggs Benedict. After 30 minutes, they finally brought it—cold. At the end, we asked for the bill and, surprisingly, they included the dish I didn’t like and didn’t eat at all. The person who brought the bill introduced himself as the manager and started arguing, claiming the issue wasn’t with the food but with my personal taste. After several minutes of arguing, they finally charged us only for the two meals. Besides, he also explained that their kitchen is small and they can’t provide quick service for everyone. In that case, I would honestly suggest closing the restaurant if you’re not able to serve simple egg-based dishes in a reasonable time. The service, the attitude, and the quality (taste and temperature) of the food were all very disappointing. Would not recommend this place if you value good service and good food.

Awesome staff but it was honestly too pricy! The water is given for free though which is nice:)

The visit to Bonvivant was great. We've been there several times and the menu just keeps getting better. The courses are very well coordinated with both the alcoholic and the non-alcoholic accompaniment, the quantity is neither too much nor too little and you can notice the sophistication of each individual course without there being too many impressions. Add to that the world-class service. The staff is super nice and you can have a great chat and feel very comfortable as a guest. It was a really great evening, many similar priced (and excellent) restaurants can still learn a lot.

We were guests in the outdoor area on a Saturday morning and were able to enjoy a really successful breakfast! The brioche pancakes were really great! The prices are a little higher but it's worth it! We'd love to come back! Thanks for the great breakfast!

Very good vegan restaurant, we have tried the 6 dishes menù with cocktail pairing; an excellent experience

We were there for breakfast and really enjoyed the food and nice service. Everything grest and strongly advice to visit when in Berlin.

The food and especially the sauces are so incredibly delicious. I never thought that vegan cuisine could be so diverse and tasty. We had the non-alcoholic drink accompaniment and in combination with the dishes it was simply excellent. The service was attentive and relaxed - it was nice that fine dining is no longer so stuffy. Great evening - thank you very much.

The breakfast is simply incredibly delicious and the service is very friendly and helpful. It's also great that there is a water flat rate (still or sparkling) for just 2.50 euros per person. Absolute recommendation!

Excellent, perfect service, perfect craftsmanship

I'm still excited. Vegan food can be so exciting. Was here for the fourth time and I was always thrilled

Delicious drinks and especially delicious food 😍

Great food, great staff, a work of art!

I was here for brunch (make sure to make a reservation!) and everything was super aromatic and delicious! Service also quick and attentive!

I have been a frequent guest at the bistro for several years and have always been more than satisfied. Absolute recommendation!

Very pretty place with delicious food and cocktails! I was here for brunch and I can totally recommend Green shakshuka. I also tried one cocktail Wacholder & Schaum which was excellent! I remove one star from food because I didn’t quite like the taste of coffee (maybe it’s because of pea milk, which I chose since they don’t serve a cow milk and I haven’t seen soy one) or maybe just grains… but it didn’t spoil my experience at all. Also as a quick note, I see that online menu is a bit outdated in comparison with the restaurant one, for instance it states that in hot beverages section there’s a soya milk, however I didn’t see it in the options on a menu at the restaurant.

I actually really like Bonvivant, but the development is becoming more and more negative. Last year there was a surprising price increase to almost 150 euros for a menu, which unfortunately wasn't really visible on the menu, at least not if you weren't expecting it. Because it was already very expensive at over 80 euros for a menu. This led to very long faces from my colleagues. Now the next attack, there is no more milk with the cappuccino, only a substitute with peas, for example. So no more cappuccino, the espresso was very good. The friendly waitress warned me that breakfast will soon be vegan. That means no more eggs. Then I won't want to come anymore. Totally a shame. Since the restaurant is quite full, it seems to be working. In any case, the food tasted very good. And the drinks are fantastic. I probably have to say goodbye with a crying heart, there is a lot of choice in Berlin, and I'm a carnivore and keto eater, so this was my only admittedly loved plant-based eating place that I've accepted so far. You find your favorite guests. Thanks for a great time, I've been there so many times, including with our team for Christmas dinner back then.

Excellent 5 course menu. Big praise to Nikodemus Berger and the team.

A truly fantastic all-round package with great service, unique dishes, and special drinks. The young team does an incredibly good job and doesn't make it look like work. For me, it was an absolutely wonderful experience.

Great atmosphere and fantastic vegan star cuisine!

An evening at the Bonvivant Cocktail Bistro – full of flavor and emotion We were fortunate enough to spend an evening at the Bonvivant Cocktail Bistro in Berlin – and it was simply fantastic. From the very first moment, the team took wonderful care of us – attentive, warm, but never intrusive. You immediately sense that they love what they do. The menu (there are 5 or 6 courses; we opted for the 5-course option with cocktail pairing) was surprising – in the best sense of the word. Each dish had character, depth, and was creatively composed without sacrificing flavor. We were particularly impressed by the balance between elegance and down-to-earthness. Nothing was "too much"; everything was harmonious. What we particularly liked: the consistent commitment to sustainability. The ingredients are locally sourced, used thoughtfully, and treated with genuine respect – you can taste it. The cocktails, perfectly matched to the dishes, were not just accompaniments, but an integral part of the culinary experience. One small disappointment – ​​we were sitting in a somewhat chilly corner of the room, which briefly reminded us that even the most beautiful things can sometimes have a slight imperfection. But even that had something almost charming about it, and was easily overshadowed by the overall experience. Bonvivant isn't a place where you simply eat. It's more of a small, refined experience – unpretentious, but with a high level of sophistication. Anyone curious about exciting plant-based cuisine served with heart shouldn't miss this place. We'll definitely be back. And maybe you will, too.

The food was delicious, but I found the prices a bit high. The drinks, on the other hand, are absolutely exorbitant. 5 euros for 200ml of Fritz Cola... 7 euros for 300ml of lemonade... I really like the place itself, and the employees were nice, too.

I had high expectations when I went to this Michelin-starred restaurant for brunch and was very disappointed. You walk in and are immediately overwhelmed by the extreme noise level. No small corners or niches, just a large space, and the bar stools are fine for a snack bar but not for a renowned restaurant for dining. Furthermore, the tables are extremely small and extremely close to each other, so you're surrounded by guests and can hear every word loudly... Then, all of a sudden, there wasn't even any cow's milk left for the cappuccino my mother was so looking forward to. Eggs are also supposed to be abolished and everything is supposed to go vegan... absolutely fantastic. When the plates arrived, there were actually several chipped spots. THIS, too, is completely unacceptable for a Michelin-starred restaurant. The waiters themselves seemed irritated by their boss's plans to go vegan and expressed this. The restrooms are also just average, sometimes dusty and dirty. THAT too... Well, you can imagine. The crispy mushrooms were unfortunately completely overseasoned and far too salty, a real shame. I found the potatoes with hollandaise sauce unimaginative and unworthy of such a restaurant, even though they weren't bad. But mashed potatoes with a bit of sesame sprinkled on top with what felt like 300ml of sauce? Come on! Oh, and we just didn't like the oat cappuccino, even though we wanted to be open-minded and try it. The coffee itself was good, but cow's milk is and always will be delicious. And I don't like freedom of choice in a kitchen instead of rigid rules and prohibitions. Of course, I chose to have my own "vegetarian-only" restaurant myself, but despite the openness, I'll never do that again, at least not in this establishment.

A very compelling concept, with regional, vegetarian, and sustainable cuisine wherever possible. New and creative cocktails than before, during, and after. And above all: very, very, very delicious, great crew, and the friendliest service. Deserves a Michelin star rating... Update after switching from vegetarian to vegan: Everything as before: regional, sustainable, but now vegan. Still highly recommended!

We had a beautiful exquisite evening in this vegan haut cuisine restaurant. Accomodating my allergy they lived up to although not the easiest and gave me alternative choices. While in a menu it's nearly impossible to match individual taste in all courses I must say they did an excellent job. Overall there was only one dish I wouldn't order again and one I found a bit underspiced. Props for the signature dish, whicht swept me off my feet. We're definitely coming again.

Vegetarian cuisine at a top level 😋

Top brunch, good drinks, friendly team. Always my pleasure.

Went there for brunch, the food looked nice, but unfortunately it didn't taste very good and the price wasn't justified for me, to be honest. The employees are really nice and friendly and the place looks very nice. Unfortunately it is very, very loud and overstimulating.

There were three of us here for dinner and the food was really of excellent quality and lovingly put together. However, we had a bit of a problem with the service. The drinks took forever. We had the food (ordered the menu) before the drinks, which was kind of stupid. Somehow things didn't work out so well with our waiter (interpersonally) and we sometimes felt a little (unnecessarily) being picked on. What I really don't understand is the colorful shirts that all the employees wear, which somehow seems intentionally casual.

A truly unique experience where the symbiosis of table service and food quality are at a level of excellence.

Modern, young and friendly. Great vegan Eat

Highly recommended. Fine, vegan cuisine, friendly and attentive staff in a relaxed atmosphere. A very clear recommendation for me!

The brunch was very tasty, but the prices were exorbitantly high for sourdough bread with two eggs… That's one thing, the other was the service. We got water on the table (actually very nice and attentive), but we were then charged for it - which is completely fine if you were informed about it in advance - we weren't. The same with cow's milk. I was charged extra for this for my cappuccino. My cappuccino arrived spilled and spilled. The waitress looked at us, smiled and said it could happen (but it shouldn't if I pay €5.5 for a cappuccino). When I asked for a review, I sent a message to bonvivant and nicely described that I was honestly dissatisfied with the situation - I was answered "[...] that's hard to imagine [...] ". What do you want to tell me? I didn't want to write a public review, but I'm really outraged by such a response and the fact that I'm not believed.

I've never eaten vegan so well. Thank you very much for this great evening with an incredibly diverse presentation and delicious vegan food. The most delicious thing was the greeting from the kitchen and the Douglas fir. Great flavors and wonderful to look at. The drinks were also very tasty. Three small points: Because we are in the high-end area of ​​gastronomy, other things should still be perfected... - The water ran out at our table twice - In my opinion, high chairs are not suitable for sitting for four hours - please check the drain in the toilet As already mentioned, we are in the high-end area here and the four of us left almost 700 euros on the table that evening. But the food, the ambience and the service were worth every euro! 🔥 I would definitely come back if there were new menus! ☺️🙌

It was a perfect evening. The food and service, the drinks, the ambience… everything is just perfect!

A wonderful evening with great service. All 7 courses were great

Unique menu served with delicious taste. Would go there whenever I get a chance.

Das Essen und vor allem die Coktailbegleitung war sehr gut. Sehr innovative vegane Gerichte, die sehr gut geschmeckt und harmoniert haben.

Great restaurant! Went for brunch twice and it was always a relaxed atmosphere, super friendly service and very tasty dishes. Always happy, maybe even for dinner - see you soon!

Unfortunately not a great experience. Unfortunately, a lot of what we wanted to order was sold out - we were later told that it was because we were there so late. However, we had a reservation for this time - so to blame this on us is not very professional. I also think that this can happen - but from a good restaurant I would expect the service staff to deal well with such a situation, which unfortunately wasn't the case here. The service was not very professional and inattentive. The food was served lukewarm and tasted okay, but nothing more. We have been here several times - the last few times we had good experiences. Unfortunately that was the last time - mainly because of the unprofessional handling of our feedback. I had already left feedback for the restaurant directly upon request because I had no intention of writing a public review - unfortunately there was a response to my feedback in which all of my feedback points were presented as not valid. This way of dealing with feedback is really very unprofessional for a high-class restaurant and has now led to me leaving my review here too. Maybe a little tip for the future: Try to learn from your guests' feedback and apologize for a bad experience instead of explaining to your guests that their well-intentioned feedback is unfortunately nonsense.

My heart belongs to these people 🫶 This review is for the brunch The food is incredibly good! You can taste the love in every bite and even as passionate meat eaters, none of us have missed meat. Ambiance is very calm, open and warm-hearted. The service is attentive, very friendly and extremely professional without being “uptight”. We were there with a baby and that worked very well as there is also a changing room. But the drinks... Guys, this is next level! So perfectly balanced and simply delicious 😋 And day drinking is very welcome here 😉 Thank you very much

It actually took me almost three weeks to write this review. Why? Because I had to think for a long time about what impressed me most. Was it the excellent food? Was it the innovative drinks? Or was it the absolutely convincing service? Now I have finally come to the conclusion that it was a combination of all the components that made it a very successful evening. We are really looking forward to the next time!

We booked the Valentine's brunch and were really happy. After a short wait we got a table. The food was very tasty and nicely presented, unfortunately that was it. A welcome drink (thank you for that) was only announced “with or without alcohol” - it was not said what we were served. Our hot drinks only arrived after we asked and after the meal. There was no way to reorder. There was no anything sweet or other drinks other than the first one. Unfortunately, the service staff wasn't available or made no attempt to serve us despite eye contact. So our bill remained quite clear, which is just a shame for every restaurateur. After the meal, the dishes and glasses were left on the table for 40 minutes; other tables had already put their dishes away. That's a shame, we wouldn't have expected that from an excellent restaurant at this location. We've had better experiences at dinner.

A pancake that you won't find anywhere else in the world. The host, Jules Winnfield, is an excellent restaurateur and knows exactly what the guests want. From now on I'll be stopping by every Wednesday for Pancake Wednesday because it's two for the price of one.

Friendly welcome, super delicious food and great ambience. You felt a bit like home. We'll be back!

We were there for brunch. Overall, a pretty successful thing. The price-performance ratio is good. The pancakes were great - they deserve an unreserved recommendation! The “Grilled Tomato Sandwich” has lost a lot of potential due to watery, tasteless tomatoes - actually a well-known phenomenon in the German winter. It's unclear to me why they don't offer seasonal alternatives here. Unfortunately, the fried potatoes were not available - which is a shame given the relatively small menu selection. The cocktails were okay, but nothing more. The young and committed service employees did their best - but overall they (perceived) were understaffed.

My go to brunch spot in Berlin. Good, small selection, good drinks and the best flat white. Highly recommended. I haven't been there for dinner yet, but it's supposed to be very good.

Great location with super nice staff and extremely delicious food. I would really like to go there again

brilliant - are all dinner menus now purely plant-based??

Wir hatten über "Taste12" Ende letzten Jahres einen Tisch für 2 zum Abendessen reserviert. Leider war ich am Tag der Reservierung richtig krank, und zwar so, dass wir definitiv nicht in das Restaurant gehen konnten. Aber Achtung: es gibt beim Bonvivant nicht alleine eine "No- Show" Gebühr, für die wir Verständnis haben. Nein, wenn man nicht mindestens 24 Stunden vor Reservierung absagt, zahlt man pro Person 75,-- Euro - für nichts. Leider hatten wir das bei dem Anruf nicht mehr parat, aber man könnte erwarten, dass einem im Falle einer Krankheits-Absage angeboten wird, die Reservierung zu verlegen. Kein Wort davon, kein Entgegenkommen. Einfach abgebucht. Insofern können wir leider das Essen und den Service nicht bewerten, werden aber so sicher auch nicht dazu kommen, das auszutesten.

Outstanding vegan restaurant with fine dining! The dishes are creative, artfully prepared and taste excellent. The ingredients are fresh and of high quality, and the flavors are perfectly balanced. The service is attentive and very professional. A highly recommended place for vegan foodies!

Excellent experience. Great staff, exceptional service and amazing food! They try to take into consideration all of your dietary restrictions and alter food as per requirements. My favourites were green Shakshuka, pancakes and the cocktails. Definitely coming back!

Wir waren hier zum Brunch. Das Essen war gut, was von Michelin-Restaurant zu erwarten ist. Allerdings versuchen die BesitzerInnen offensichtlich so viele Leute zu empfangen, wie es möglich ist. Als Resultat - zu viele Tische in engem Raum, zu Laut - man hört nur diejenige, die direkt daneben sitzen. Auch die KellnerInnen haben Probleme die Bestellungen zu hören und bringen deshalb falsche Getränke und Essen. Die KellnerInnen ist sehr freundlich und nett, man kann aber sehen das sie sehr gestresst sind, was bedeutet, dass die BesitzerInnen auch auf Personalkosten sparen. Nach 90 Minuten wurden wir gerügt, weil wir noch nicht fertig waren (bei der telefonischen Reservierung haben wir keinen Bescheid bekommen, dass wir einen Tisch nur für 90 Minuten haben). Also - keine angenehme Atmosphäre für einen Sonntagsbrunch. Gutes Essen gibt es auch in anderen Restaurants mit viel gemütlicher und ruhiger Ambiente.

Didn't get food because Manager initially completely ignored us, then after 10 minutes offered seats at bar. We requested to be free table but were refused under excuse that it will take too long to clear table. And then we were told that we aren't only people and other people reserve 3 weeks in advance so they couldn't give us free table despite we had reservation. Never again. Cancelled my plan to have wedding event there.

Terrible service to the point had to walk out without ordering. Had a reservation, took a long while for anybody to even notice us and after making us wait at the door until 15 mins past the reservation time they offered us seats at the bar despite having a clearly empty table. Asked for the table and their response was it'll take them a while longer to clean it and they are popular and booked 3 weeks in advance. Have no idea what kind of response that was, but they clearly have no interest in actually satisfying their customers. Would not recommend if you actually value your time.

A special place, just tried the brunch and it is absolutely worth the price. The service is fantastic.

Visiting this restaurant was a real gastronomic adventure for me. The amazing combination of flavors, the flawless presentation of the dishes and the attention to detail left a lasting impression. Each dish was a work of art and the service was a model of unobtrusive care. This evening showed that it is not just about food, but about true art that is worth experiencing at least once in your life.

Visited Bonvivant for brunch. Food was good but that’s it, nothing special or exciting, had higher expectations given the Michelin starred restaurant at the same venue. Quick service and friendly staff. Seating space is very narrow, small tables packed way too close to each other. Too loud to properly enjoy the brunch experience.

I don’t know why it has a Michelin star. Maybe dinner is better, brunch wasn’t worth going there. Food is ok, but not outstanding. There’re plenty of places without stars that serve better brunch. Service is ok, but, for example, we had an empty bottle of water standing on our table for half an hour. Again not a Michelin star level. I don’t think I will ever go there again and definitely not for a brunch.

★★★★★ Bonvivant is simply top class! The Eggs Benedict are the best I've ever had: perfectly poached eggs, creamy miso hollandaise, fresh spinach and aromatic wild herbs - a real taste explosion. I chose the brioche, and that rounded everything off. Great quality, lovingly prepared and a relaxed atmosphere. For everyone who loves breakfast: an absolute insider tip!

In the evening, Michelin-starred cuisine with innovative cocktails. The best breakfast in town during the day at the moment. The hollandaise sauce on the eggs benedict was the best ever. The drinks (iced tea, iced caramel latte) are smart, the service is relaxed and ultra friendly.

Frühstück in Berlin: da kann im Michelin Sternerestaurant ja nix schiefgehen… Weit gefehlt: Fast mürrische Begrüßung, da merkt man gleich, wie der Service abläuft. Man sah das Personal nie lächeln. Dann das wichtigste, das Essen. Es gab egg Benedikt in seiner einfachsten Form. Leider fast kalt serviert, das kann jedes Hotelfrühstück besser. Die Kartoffeln lauwarm frittiert und mit der gleichen hollandaise…das ist bei dem Anspruch zu wenig. Wieso bei der Aussage in der Karte, dass nur nachhaltige Lebensmittel verwendet werden, dann Ruinart Champagner serviert wird, erschließt sich mir nicht. Arg viel kommerzieller geht’s ja kaum noch… der von uns getrunkene Pinot Noir Sekt war allerdings hervorragend! Zahlen und raus, kein Platz zum verweilen…

und zwar um es gleich vorweg zu sagen: ausschließlich positiver Geschmacksüberraschungen! Aber der Reihe nach: Nachdem wir vor ein paar Monaten zu Viert an einem Wochenende zum Brunchen im Bonvivant waren, wollten wir natürlich auch einmal das volle Programm testen. Ein Abend zum Erholen nach den Weihnachtsfeiertagen sollte es sein und es so war es dann auch. Die Atmosphäre im Bonvivant ist locker und entspannt, das Personal durchweg eher jung, aber sehr aufmerksam und freundlich. Das Eindecken der Tische ist sehr reduziert (man behält zB überwiegend sein Besteck), dieser zwanglose Ansatz soll aber offensichtlich dem Cocktail-Bistro Ansatz Rechnung tragen (wenn man unbedingt etwas meckern möchte, dann dass es direkt an den Fenstern im Winter ganz leicht "zieht"). Im Vordergrund stehen damit - und das völlig zu Recht - die Speisen und die sie begleitenden Getränke, und beides war/ist großartig! Ich behaupte von mir gerne eher im Team "Fisch/Fleisch" zu spielen und meiner Frau geht es ähnlich, im Bonvivant vermisst man beides aber keine Sekunde. Welche Fülle an (zT auch wirklich überraschenden) Aromen das Team um den Chef Niko aus Gemüse herauskitzelt ist schon sensationell. Es fällt mir schwer einzelne Gerichte herauszustellen, vielleicht waren die Gurke, der Sellerie mit Holzkohlebutter und der Laubporling (Hammer!) noch einen Tick besser als die anderen Gänge, wobei das die Robinienblüten zum Dessert zu Unrecht hinten anstellen würde ... :-). Die dazu angebotene Cocktailbegleitung (wir hatten beide die alkoholische Variante) war in dieser Form für uns ein echtes Novum, da wir sonst eher auf Wein zum Menü festgelegt sind. Sie passte allerdings bei jeden Gang sehr gut bis fantastisch (Dank an den Barkeeper Julik) und war so mit verantwortlich dafür, dass der Abend für uns ein echtes kulinarisches Highlight wurde. Ab dem neuen Jahr soll das Bonvivant dann übrigens vollständig vegan werden, bin gespannt, was dann aus den wirklich tollen Käsespätzle wird, aber auch dafür werden sie dort bestimmt etwas Neues finden!

Unbelievably good brunch, excellent service and amazing vibe! Highly recommend!!

Absolute favorite for vegetarian food in Berlin! Imaginative cuisine without showmanship, finely thought-out dishes, and the great non-alcoholic beverage accompaniment should also be highlighted. Attentive service and pleasant noise level in the restaurant.

One of if not the best breakfasts in town, super nice staff.

I had an amazingly pleasant evening 🙏 Thank you very much 😇🍾

Went there for Sunday brunch. The host was extremely kind, helpful and professional. We were seated in the separate room at a big round table with other guests. Loved the room and that it was away from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the restaurant. The food was good. We had the eggs benedict and the green shakshuka. The flavors were really rich and delightful. Unfortunately our eggs were overcooked, so the yolk wasn't runny. It didn't bother me enough to send rhe dish back, but it was pretty surprising since making good eggs seem basic for a place that serves brunch regardless of Michelin star. I had the espresso martini and another drink with basil foam. They were good but not outstanding. The lemonade, however, was really delicious! The chai latte was also great. I am glad we tried it, but the eggs and cocktails were underwhelming. The servers were nice tho!

Wie es bereits viele andere, begeisterte Gäste beschrieben haben, wird hier in entspannter Atmosphäre von einem sehr freundlichen und sehr enthusiastischen Team den Gästen eine wunderbare Erfahrung geboten. Dass das Bonvivant in diesem Jahr den ersten Platz in der Kategorie Restaurantbar gewonnen hat, ist absolut nachvollziehbar. Und der Michelinstern für die kulinarischen Kunstwerke aus der Küche ist genauso gerechtfertigt. Wir waren hier bereits zum wiederholten Mal und freuen uns nach diesem Abend bereits auf unseren nächsten Besuch des Bonvivant.

As many other enthusiastic guests have already described, guests are offered a wonderful experience in a relaxed atmosphere by a very friendly and very enthusiastic team. It is absolutely understandable that Bonvivant won first place in the restaurant bar category this year. And the Michelin star for the culinary works of art from the kitchen is just as justified. We have been here several times and are already looking forward to our next visit to Bonvivant after this evening.

Endroit cosy à la décoration branchée, étoilé Michelin , ça s'annonce bien...la carte indique brunch...que nenni, il s'agit d'une succession de plats végétariens proposés à la carte...pas mauvais mais loin d'un brunch...n'espérez pas un jus d'oranges frais ou pas...il n'y en a pas . L'expérience est donc moyenne comme le service nonchalant...prix élevés

Michelin starred restaurant with an affordable delicious brunch menu. Tried it, don't regret it, and will definitely go back!! Thanks team.

Location: great atmosphere, calm but very appealing Eat: Unfortunately my vocabulary doesn't express what I want to express, so in one word, okay, two words... surprising and excellent Staff: I had the feeling of being welcomed by hosts Conclusion: definitely repeat

The first time in a star restaurant was very, very pleasant. The vegetarian/vegan courses with non-alcoholic (0.0) accompaniment were a crucial criterion for us when choosing a restaurant and a great taste experience. The employees patiently answered all of our questions. We felt very comfortable!

A real treat! In addition, loving care that explains what is served with enthusiasm and almost poetically. Pleasant, quiet atmosphere in a great ambience. A fascinating variety of flavors from the first to the last course! This is a restaurant for a very special evening!

Dinner was truly an experience. Very creative and lovingly prepared dishes, interesting and well-coordinated cocktails, as well as a very friendly and well-informed team made the evening something very special! There is a small deduction for the somewhat uncomfortable sitting on the bench against the wall.

Bonvivant is an incredible vegetarian restaurant with two michelin stars and a non-pretentious atmosphere. I have eaten dinner and brunch here numerous times and every time has been wonderful - the food and drinks are delicious and locally sourced where possible. The decor is gorgeous, and the service and atmosphere are top-notch.

So far we have always been very happy at Bonvivant and have had a good time there, especially on special occasions. I once celebrated my birthday with my family in the separate room at the back and it was really excellent. Both the food and service were more than top. Yesterday we went there for brunch (once again for a special occasion) and were unfortunately very disappointed. What we would once call the best Eggs Benedict has unfortunately turned into a real disaster. The dish was completely drowned in sauce and had nothing to do with the quality we know from Bonvivant. I couldn't finish it because everything tasted like this sauce and the dish was incredibly heavy on the stomach. However, as before, the service responded flawlessly and we received two free drinks. What also bothered me a bit was that, despite explicitly stating our wish for a quiet table, they wanted to place us at the bar and we ended up getting a seat in the middle of the room. Accepting a few fewer guests would be good for the ambience, as it is really noisy. Dear Bonvivant team, we really want to come back because we have really appreciated your brunch so far. But please bring the kitchen back to the old quality standard!

Best brunch place in Berlin, and the food is just delicious.

We had the 6 course dinner here. Some very interesting taste combinations in the menu. Cocktails were creative and non-standard. Really nice place to try if you want something very non mainstream. And of course the He-man meme in the toilets was a very nice touch. Totally recommended!

A very tasty brunch with great service.

Bonvivant Cocktail Bistro in Berlin's Schöneberg district offers an exceptional dining experience that seamlessly blends vibrant ambiance, exquisite cuisine, and outstanding beverages. The atmosphere is both fashionable and buzzing, adorned with deep aqua hues, delicate pink flowers, draped green plants, bright yellow artworks, and brass-coloured features. Patrons often perch at the bar, sipping mimosas and cocktails, creating a lively yet sophisticated setting. The culinary offerings are entirely vegetarian, with a menu that changes seasonally to highlight fresh, local produce. Dishes such as poached eggs with miso hollandaise, spinach, and wild herbs, as well as deep-fried oyster mushrooms with kimchi on milk bread with lemon cream, showcase the kitchen's creativity and commitment to flavour. The beverage program is equally impressive, featuring a selection of innovative cocktails crafted with precision. The Blue 81, for instance, combines gin, grapefruit, cava, and spirulina, resulting in a refreshing and unique drink. A standout aspect of Bonvivant is the exceptional service provided by the staff. Cocktail maker Joe, in particular, is renowned for his expertise and friendly demeanor, enhancing the overall experience for guests. In summary, Bonvivant Cocktail Bistro excels in every aspect, from its inviting ambiance and delectable food to its superb beverages and attentive service. It is a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a memorable dining experience in Berlin.

Probably the best meal we've had in Berlin so far - absolutely and incredibly outstanding! Every single course was so exceptionally yummy, so delicate, so beautiful, and so creative. And not to pale against the food, the drink paring features equally delicious and innovative cocktails or mocktails - yes, they have an entire paring of alcohol-free drinks that are incredibly complex and tasty and also not so sweet, a very rare feat for mocktails. Service was both warm and efficient and came from the heart.

Very tasty, very accommodating and attentive, very lively.
