Cana Restaurant & Catering in Berlin

A wonderful Turkish breakfast brunch that left nothing to be desired, the staff was very friendly and attentive, the atmosphere was cozy and relaxed...very good value for money...absolute recommendation

Very good cuisine, very friendly service, the mezze were fantastic, I had a vegetable grill platter as my main course, everything was on point, the restaurant itself is clean, but it needs a facelift. However, you sit outside, right on the Märkisches Ufer, in a beautiful setting.

This restaurant was our friend's recommendation, and we also let her order everything for us :) so I don't know the exact dishes, but the lamb leg was something else, as well as meat / cheese mini-pies. I couldn't stop eating after I was waaay beyond full, didn't feel my stomach and refused breakfast the next morning. Totally worth it, will repeat

Friendly service, delicious food.

Had a very great Sunday brunch here. The place is clean, nice and cozy. Plenty of choice at the buffet. Various fresh dips, very tasty pastries, meat and hot dishes, some salad and at the end there were very tasty sweet dishes. And everything for 19.90€ - price performance is completely fine 👍🏻. The only thing that was personally missing was fresh fruit 😅. But overall we were quite satisfied. I will recommend the Sunday brunch and will come again when we are in Berlin again.

It was my first time there with my husband and we were pleasantly surprised. Very nice, cozy atmosphere. Beautiful music that reminds you of home. The staff was very nice, the food was reserved quickly, very tasty and reserved with love. The kufta was also very tasty, but it was too thick and could have been made a little thinner. At the end you get a delicious dessert reserved on the house, it's a shame there wasn't any Shai with it.😉

We were there for the business lunch. Price-performance ratio unbeatable! Definite recommendation

Great food! Greatly seasoned / beautifully homemade. Plenty. Unfortunately the meat wasn't added. Drink service still has potential.

very poor condition, main dish was dry, drinks orders were forgotten, not recommended

Great atmosphere! Recommended! Dishes are absolutely to be enjoyed;) In the warmer seasons they are located directly at the historic harbor Seating. The restaurant has access to the hotel. Parking spaces in the immediate vicinity. (Affordable parking) Top walking area.

An excellent choice if you want to eat oriental food. Very good quality at fair prices. The cuisine is not limited to one country, but includes various oriental countries, e.g. Syria, Lebanon or Tunisia. The furnishings are much more sophisticated than in many Arabic restaurants.

Excellent restaurant for Arabic brunch on Sundays (€19.90 per person), the selection of dishes leaves nothing to be desired, including a lot of vegetarian options

Very good restaurant. Large portions, delicious food. Went here for a team lunch. I had the Palestinian national dish which was fantastic. Highly recommend.

Best Arabic restaurant in Berlin. Super friendly staff 😍❤️🥰

We were delivered a really delicious buffet. Every finger food bite is a pleasure! We chose vegan and vegetarian. But even the biggest meat fans didn't miss anything. Absolutely recommended for all occasions. In addition, it was very easy to order and delivered on time. Always my pleasure! THANKS!

Server brought the wrong meal than admit it and argue for me to eat it. Food was very average. Taste of premade - re heated. I would not recommend. Though I've heard good comments. Maybe a bad night.

We really like being at Cana because we love Arabic cuisine and everything is just right.

I regularly order catering from Cana and I can't praise the company enough. The food is delicious, inexpensive, healthy. The staff are very competent, professional and friendly. It's the first restaurant I recommend to visitors!

Lugar perfecto para un descanso del chucrut. La comida es deliciosa y el personal amable. No tuvimos problemas con propina pre-cargada como se menciona por otros. Le entregamos la máquina con opciones disponibles para agregar una propina.

Very diverse and delicious starters. For the main courses, the grill plate is highly recommended! The employees were also very friendly.

Short stopover in Berlin. After a strenuous day of travel, we stopped at Cana because it was within walking distance of the hotel and well rated. Table reservation online is possible at short notice and is easy. The food was great... We had a four-course menu so we didn't have to choose. Service was on point, great service, food came quickly. Everything is fine... We have saved the address.

Food, staff really recommended, everyone was really friendly, simply phenomenal

The food is really very good. Both couscous and rice dishes are recommended. The service (Salem) is very friendly and you got your food quickly.

Friendly waiter, very tasty food.

Super nice evening Brilliant food Very, very friendly staff and phenomenal food. Definitely a must

The food was good, but the service was horrible. The waitress was rude. When we arrived and told her we had a reservation, she didn't bother to check the computer and just said they were full. After insisting, she finally checked and seated us without apologizing. Another waitress who served at our table didn't ask who ordered which dish and just placed the food without any consideration. Overall, the service was a 0/10, especially from the female waitstaff. They need to be trained on how to greet and serve customers respectfully.

Unfortunately we are only guests in Berlin, best Arabic restaurant where we were, very friendly staff, super delicious food, dessert and cocktail are impressive.

I participated in the Sunday brunch along with my wife. It was a fantastic culinary trip to the Middle East, with a great variety of treats at a fair price. The food was excellent quality and heavenly in taste. Regarding my gluten intolerance, I received detailed instructions about what to eat and what to avoid, which proved to be trustworthy. This is an absolutely recommendable restaurant.

All vegetarian dishes are available in large quantities and selection and are incredibly well done, breakfast on Sunday is a banger

Good service, amazing food and really nice atmosphere.

Traditional shop with oriental mezze. Hummus was great, the Batata Harra were crunchy and tasted very good and the garlic paste (thum) tasted as it should. Unfortunately, the main course was disappointing across the board. We ordered Mansaf with lamb and what came to the table did not meet my expectations at all. The dish was almost past its expiration date and smelled strong. After we pointed this out to the waitress and we actually lost our appetite, she just offered us another dish. When we explained to her that we wanted to go and that she should please cancel the court, we were brushed off with a “that’s not possible”. They insisted on paying the court which shocked us. We finally paid everything and left, however I can't get over the fact that I had to pay in full for a smelly lamb dish and feel obliged to warn the people out there about it! We won't be here anymore. Too bad.

Everything about this restaurant is brilliant.

The sign says Buffet, that's why you go there but they only have three bowls of soup and you're told you're out of luck. There is a real buffet on Sunday. Isn't it a scam???

Very friendly reception. Wide choice of oriental dishes. Very refined cuisine full of flavor and with sublime notes of oriental herbs.

En general muy bien, buen ambiente y buena comida, nos atendió un chico brasileño qie hablaba un buen español, muy agradable.

Comida increíble con grandes especias. El personal sabía lo que era sin gluten. Las opciones vegetarianas también son muy buenas. El personal era muy agradable y el ambiente es adecuado.

We booked A table at this restaurant but it was closed. No notice that they were closed. We travelled more than 30 minutes. Really bad service avoid this place.

Unfortunately the food got a bit shaken up during delivery, but this is by far the BEST Lebanese/middle eastern food I’ve had in Berlin. The chicken and lamb were so juicy, potatoes super flavourful and the starters and desert were incredible. Would highly recommend! @osofoodies

We had reserved. The 3-course “Morgenland” menu was chosen. The young waiter was very friendly and accommodating. The food was good. But unfortunately we didn't feel comfortable because we were treated third-class. Probably because we were 2 women..? The men were served much more quickly. Dessert just didn't come. The restaurant was busy inside and out and we really understood the stress. Then 3 cookies arrived. The dessert should be “Sweet Sin of the Orient” and include variations. We spoke to the waiters rushing past, including the boss, several times. This kind of disregard and condescension detracted from the birthday evening. After the 4th response, we were given a dessert cream with coconut in a glass. We went to the front to pay so it wouldn't take any longer. For the first time in our lives, there were no tips and that means something to us.

Ristorante mediorientale situato nel quartiere Mitte con piacevole affaccio su un canale. Menu con ampia scelta; piatti veramente buoni , servizio rapido; il cameriere molto simpatico e gentile.

It isn’t unfortunately special and authentic. But with this price I can’t say bad. When you have some huge hungers on labneh or baba ghanoush, here is definitely the restaurant where you can have and enjoy them as much as you need.

Food was mediocre at best, but the service was horrible. They do not know nor understand the concept of customer service, and few on the wait staff seemed to understand allergies like lactose and gluten to know what is in their menu items that didn't include these things.

Food started out strong and unfortunately faded away towards the end. To put it into perspective: I had a 5 course menu. -The starter consisted of various pastes and salads and was served with bread. The taste was definitely good, but the quantity was enough to be considered a complete meal. Must be reduced by at least 75%. It's better to have a few really good things than 10 different ones by the kilo. -The second course consisted of lamb served on the bone and again salad. In my opinion it doesn't belong here. The meat was well cooked and fell off the bone easily. No serious complaints so far -The third course was one of the most disgusting things I have ever been served in a restaurant. There was lamb and chicken. I have nothing wrong with the chicken, but the lamb... My lamb was 80% a huge blood vessel including branches. Since this wasn't the case with others at the table, I must have either had the waste on my plate or the cook had no idea or inclination. Absolute no go and just disgusting. The arterial disgust package was then served again with salad. For the third time. -The next course consisted of fish, a potato preparation and again the same side salad. The fish itself was well prepared, but one fish had a lot of bones, which it wouldn't have had to have if the cook had been up for it. The potato dish was delicious. -The last course was the pistachio knafe with sweetened cheese. Very tasty, I can definitely recommend it. Service: We had a young, dedicated waiter who always had a good saying on his lips and tried very hard to provide good service. I didn't notice much of the other two. Not because they did their job so well, but because they kept quiet and that was it. Unfortunately, my complaint about the third course wasn't taken seriously; they just nodded and took the food away. All in all, definitely not a bad restaurant. However, for me in a restaurant the food is the most important thing and that was absolutely inadequate in the fourth course and the fourth course was also inadequate after the third course. The menu composition also makes little sense from a professional perspective. You become overloaded with heavy food that sits in your stomach. The kitchen should look through the “young chef” again so that at least basic knowledge is available. Unfortunately my first and last stay with you.

We were there with a larger group (with reservation) and had a great time. The service is very friendly and the table was beautifully set. The food was very good and fresh.

Highly recommend. One of the best places to get middle eastern food. The staff is SUPER friendly. A bit on the pricey side but totally worth it!

They have a very delicious manssaf chicken

Buena comida en un gran entorno junto al canal. Servicio amable y buena relación calidad-precio - las porciones eran generosas, así que tuvimos más que suficiente para comer con un entrante y dos principales entre dos de nosotros.

Our favorite in Berlin! A special selection of oriental dishes (many vegan/vegetarian options are also possible). The dessert platter in particular is highly recommended. The waiters are very warm and the atmosphere is romantic! All we can say is: see you next time! (LG to Ahmet!)

This is a pure joy to visit this restaurant. One of the best lamb chops with crunchy potatoes ❤️ ok, all food is excellent here. Mezze to share with family as a taste trip. And there is always a place in my stomach for baklava (and one more glass of Aperol Spritz). The waiter was just the best service experience ever - friendly and funny at the same time. Thank you from our whole big family!

Everything was really good, the food was great, the service was really nice and our main waiter was great. It was nice and quiet and everything was fine. Nothing to complain about!

The food is very tasty there, authentic. There is a clear buffet at brunch on Sun (4.8.24). But I personally think that's better. Hmm, the ambience is good. The music took some getting used to in an Arabic restaurant. It was played in English. Rock pop. Unfortunately, we had bad luck with the staff. Drinks came to our table that we hadn't ordered. The waiter took them back or brought them to the right table. Unfortunately, we only found out when we got home that they were on our bill. Of course that gave me a strange feeling. So...delicious food...but be careful!!!!! when paying the bill, especially when paying by card!!!!!!!!!! Unfortunately we hadn't received any invoice beforehand, everything was done on their PC...

Nice location by the canal especially on a summer’s day, the food was excellent. The service was a tad bit slow at the beginning but then it was ok.

Authentic food that tastes great. You might want to reserve a table since it can get crowded.

I went to Canan spontaneously and got a table straight away. The staff is really super friendly and the food tasted very good!

Dinner was fantastic with some excellent options for authentic Lebanese food. We loved the mezze choices and they had a variety of excellent meats. Prices were very reasonable and we'd definitely recommend it to others. Also easy to book a reservation in advance if you have a large party like we did.

Authentic oriental cuisine. Ate the caravan of 12 delicacies for two. Delicious!

Great food, super friendly service, very nice staff, top quality!

Good and tasty Arabic food and drinks, friendly and attentive service. All of this in one of the most beautiful places in Berlin. Right on the shore of Fischerinsel. I ran one of my gallery locations in the middle of Berlin here until 2017. for 14 years. I was happy to come to you with friends and guests. Even after that. Although with slightly longer intervals, but always happy.

We were here for brunch: i.e. the buffet on Sunday, and were very satisfied. The selection of dishes was good. The food was fresh and delicious. Price-performance ratio was definitely right. You can sit outside by the river or inside in the restaurant. We'll definitely be back.

Super delicious food. Nice personel. Directly on the Spree. The brunch is recommended!

We regularly use both the restaurant and catering. Just great!

best middle eastern food tasted in Berlin, it was during middle of week, it’s next to a beautiful canal, staff speaks English as well, food is amazing a true taste of Middle East. staff is friendly and price is reasonable.

As always, it was very tasty. I was there with 8 customers - a table was reserved for us and we were able to eat relaxed from the buffet. The staff on site was very nice and friendly. Thanks, Marco

Great food (as a group of 11 we ordered pretty much everything on the menu), good service, friendly staff - a very pleasant experience!

Very, very tasty, great food also great as a vegan

I am absolutely thrilled with the standard of the cuisine. Arabic dishes taste on a new level. I felt like I was on vacation with the good service outside. Thanks !

The food is very good, the service is excellent but slow , staff is so friendly

A wonderful restaurant and delicious food. We had dinner on 5/31/2024, Friday. ESH33

Delicious food, friendly staff, great value for money.

We were there with a larger international group and everyone was very satisfied: the service was friendly, the food was delicious and the reservations/arrangements in advance were uncomplicated. Very clear recommendation.

Super delicious tea with milk, exotic coffee, very good food and friendly personnel

Loved their Ala Carte but their brunch/buffet is terrible. Update: Visited them again, Even their ala carte has gone down the drain. It tasted terrible that I nearly puked. Plus, when we complained, the waiter dismissed it and the audacity, he also charged us the tip without our consent. I mean are you for real!!!! A great alternative: Casalot at Oranienburger strasse.

Cana Restaurant's catering is simply AMAZING! For 10 years we have had all of our parties and invitations enhanced with culinary delights by Cana Restaurant. The food is incredibly tasty, varied, delicious and wholesome. Our guests always ask in advance whether there will be food from Cana again, it's a highlight. In addition, there is also the totally uncomplicated service from the friendly Cana team: great advice, absolutely reliable delivery, installation on site by charismatic employees - right through to picking up the dishes the next day. Cana's friendly team has become an integral part of our hosting and allows us to feel like guests at our own party in a very elegant way, completely stress-free and with a guarantee of success. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the 10 years of collaboration and looking forward to more.

Best middle eastern restaurant in Berlin.

A nice little restaurant with a small Mediterranean all-you-can-eat buffet.

Great food, friendly service and with a view of the water. Gladly again!

Very nice and above all authentic brunch buffet. Great selection and the taste is great. The price is top. We'd love to come back.

The food was very good, the service was very nice, we would like to come back.

Service?????? What a service. It started when there was no answer when we asked about certain ingredients because of allergies. It was only when a colleague came over and asked specifically that we got an answer. We continued with a jalten main course (Rice lukewarm, lamb cold). Likewise was Half of the drinks would be forgotten and after 1.5 hours the waitress remembered that desserts had been ordered but he had already forgotten them because he had to serve outside. Only after asking again was the dessert order taken again, although there was no sign of service. After another 35 minutes the desserts arrived and we are still waiting to this day for the schnapps at the house's expense to compensate for the waiting time. When checking out, it was also repeatedly pointed out that service was served both inside and outside... Even this one star is already too much of a good thing, but unfortunately Google doesn't allow negative reviews yet

I was there for brunch it was so delicious!!

This restaurant offers two dining options: a buffet, which I recommend, and à la carte selections from the menu. We opted for lunch here, finding the food tasty, albeit slightly oily. The buffet is priced at 10 euros per person, making it a great choice for a quick and economical meal. I'd suggest this place for those looking for value and convenience.

Arabic restaurant with excellent food and very nice service. I go there every time I'm in Berlin - an absolute recommendation from me.

Great place, super fresh food and everything made from scratch. Logical for a restaurant 😉 you would think, but really make everything yourself, including the yogurt. Highly recommended, we had the mezze, cold and warm, and the baklava for dessert. The 12 mezze were all delicious! Super friendly service too. What a party. Look no further, go here.

I went to Iftar at Cana with friends and it was fantastic. We arrived just before Iftar as agreed. The food was served on time. Extra dates were also served. The Istanbul and Supper menu were perfect for us. Thank you for the delicious Iftar and the lovely evening. We'll be back soon. Ramadan Kareem 🌙

Authentic cuisine paired with friendly staff.

Probably the worst restaurant in berlin

Very nice people working there. Dedicated staff who make sure you and your guests are comfortable. Food is very good but could be great with some tweaks. Location is easily accessible by either U2 or U5. Coffee and tea are authentic.

Bad experience with very bad delivery with delayed ( at the end the food not arriving) , will not order or eat there again … un respectful at all , shame on the your delivery 0-10

Yet again, a delicious dinner at Cana: great food that never disappoints and super nice service. Highly recommended, despite the unexpected location. :)

I've been to Cana several times, most recently for the first time at Sunday brunch. Buffet is very rich and extremely delicate. Staff is very polite. Always worth a visit.

Best Arabische Buffet I had in Berlin so far. I would highly recommend that. Location is very central with canal. Very clean, great food.

It’s an oriental Lebanese restaurant with all decorations and vibes . The kofta was well seasoned and smoked. Chicken was tender and delicious. The meat was tender and the sauce was flavorful. The drink wasn’t as expected but not bad as well. The staff were really friendly with us They accept card payments and cash too.

I'm only giving 3 stars for one of the servers, I tried to be fair and you can't give it an average, so I'm rating it higher, because he alone was very nice and did a good job his work. A little curious about privacy though but I don't blame him because the intention wasn't bad, on the contrary. However, I didn't like the rest of the staff at all, cold and seeming jaded (perhaps not liking foreigners or certain types of foreigners?) but welcome and respect must count a lot, it is a group (the others only speak Arabic, no English, no German apparently, at the limit, it doesn't matter if they appear welcoming, friendly but it was really heavy, embarrassing at certain moments ). One of the staff members made derogatory remarks about me, whom he did not know and whom he only saw several meters from where I was. It was very intrusive. Apparently it started with a compliment from the waiter who took care of me, but which his colleague transformed into an insult against me, he said demeaning things, without knowing, and without looking at himself, without being aware of this. that it is ! It’s the hospital that doesn’t care about charity… How can it risk doing this without looking at itself? Speculating etc. I tried to act as if nothing had happened, especially for the friendly and cheerful waiter, but it was difficult, when I left, I had a very unpleasant feeling. It was very inappropriate and insulting in any case on the part of the others, even if it started as a compliment from the aforementioned kind waiter and even then I imagine that he toned down and did not say everything. And I deduced it myself too when I took a look at the bottom, it made me uncomfortable that it was speculating like this on my back. Because if I go to a restaurant it's more to feel good, on the contrary, without having to stress about this or that. The food is correct and classic when you know a little about Lebanese food but I have already tasted better too, it's just a shame that in general it is reheated but there is no obligation to "make house” when not indicated.

Love it, good Middle Eastern food

Very nice atmosphere. The food is absolutely recommended, as are the drinks. Pteis performance ratio is right. Friendly and very nice staff and service. We'd love to come back.

Very tasty, diverse and authentic food. The attentive service is particularly noteworthy; you really feel welcome here

In a big city like Berlin, we always look for cuisines that we can just as easily find in our own city. The Arabic restaurant Cana turned out to be a great hit! A lot of taste and great quality. The service was very friendly and attentive. The place was full but we never had to wait long; the timing of the dishes was perfect. Tip: order one of the menus and be surprised!

Today we had dinner at Cana a La Carte with 13 friends with a reservation. The food came together. The dishes were briefly explained to us. Top service. All the food was to die for.

Very tasty food, friendly staff, price acceptable, ordering takes a while but still ok. Recommended.

Very friendly service followed by a great meal! Quality of the food was amazing.
