Kanaan in Berlin - Telefonnummer, Reservierungen, Bewertungen

Extraordinary hummus and baba ganoush that blew my mind away!

Third time I come. But I have tried 5. Two of them we couldn't have dinner because, although it says that the restaurant closes at 10 p.m., at 9 o'clock they no longer cook... Now they have a menu for 30 euros that... Low... Without further ado... The good thing is that I'm not going back :)

I know Kanaan since many years and it has developed in a very nice way. My dinner for two was very delicious, very original with friendly staff and service.

We went on a special evening with entertainment. What a gem and gorgeous place 🤍 and yes, the Arabic coffee is DIVINE!! ✨✨

If you are passing through Berlin it is worth stopping for dinner. Good cuisine and a beautiful story of knowledge and coexistence

The food was good, service a little bit chaotic but they were very nice! We had a great time, defensively something to shear with friends

Lekker. Gewoon lekker. Wijn is goed. Muziek is goed. Bediening charmant. Publiek is minder hip dan je zou verwachten maar dat mag de pret niet drukken. Een plek om terug te komen.

One of my favorite go to places in Berlin. At Kanaan you don’t only get great food and nice interior. Kanaan is a place of cross cultural and religious solidarity and love. The service might not always be perfect but the personnel is also friendly (which is not very common in Berlin). You might have to squeeze a bit to fit all the delicious food on the table and all your friends around the table, but the atmosphere and what this restaurant stands for definitely make up for it.

Unique place for some great mid-eastern cuisine in Berlin. An eclectic menu and matching decor on the walls. Food was amazing and hummus was definitely the best (since I make a variety of this dish, this was in particular, brilliant). We had the weekend meal and just bowled over by the sheer quantity. The coolers had some artificial flavour more like a concentrated concoction. Service was good and she did warn us for the portion sizes. The pictures of the founders are on the walls and appreciate their thought in putting this place together. Can get busy very soon. Reservation helps. Must do place for vegetarians.

Nice staff but long wait even though it wasn't busy. My “salad” consisted of a halved iceberg head and a few pomegranate seeds, which wasn’t worth the price.

A great restaurant with very good food. Great idea behind it.

I used to really love Kanaan, but the more I would go, the more I realized how poorly managed this place is. The menu forces you to order too much food. You can only order the brunch if two people order it together. Then if there are 4 people, then all 4 have to order the brunch or no-one can order the brunch. The brunch is huge, so unless you are starving or like to eat a lot, it is too much food. The entrees on the brunch cannot be ordered á la carte, so you if you don’t order the brunch you can’t have it and are stuck with a selection of appetizers. It is so upsetting to be force fed all this food. I don’t understand their logic. They want us to spend more money by making us order in excess, but honestly if they would just let us order what we want, we would probably spend just as much. It’s not like they can’t accommodate, they can, but they have some crazy owner on a power trip. On top of that, the food is inconsistent, tasting different each time, so it’s hard to rely on it being good from one day to the next. I’ve talked to the managers and staff several times about the menu and my frustration, but they refuse to do anything about it. It is not even the money, it’s about being wasteful and glutinous. Every time, we leave food untouched because we simply can’t eat all the items they bring us. Look at the menu yourself and you will see what I’m talking about. It is simply too much food! I will not be returning sadly, as it is nice to support a business that has a message of peace, but they have lost the plot, if they are proponents of waste.

Food was quality, friendly staff, simple decor, bohemian part of city. Worth a visit.

The mood is very colorful. It is also a bit loud if you sit in the front area. But very nice atmosphere and attentive and quick staff. The food, we had the vegetarian menu four times, was also excellent the second time. The menu is a clear recommendation. There are really many different dishes. You can count on two hours for the three courses, and in the end the quantity was a bit too much for us. So it's best to come hungry. The concept of the store is great.

Closed - despite reservations - a shame

Incredible place, food and service. 10/10 I would recommend it to a friend.

Unfriendly! Loud! Not a good atmosphere. The main course was much too small and cold, with pressure the next course was brought because the table was taken again. No service. Just bad and expensive!

Delicious and super nice. We can only recommend it, and even more so from last Sunday.

I just love this place of love, amazing food, amazing people. It is giving me so much hope in these dark days. Love you guys ❤️

Delicious and super nice. We can only recommend it, and even more so from last Sunday.

Delicious meal - 9 course dinner! A bit more expensive, but the food was so worth it. I was absolutely full, but still found room for dessert because it was as fantastic as the rest of the meal.

I wanted to like this place, but left disappointed. We had to wait 20 mins past our reservation time to be seated, then we were asked to move tables around 10 minutes after they seated us. The food was ok, some starter dishes really tasty and the bread was delicious. Throughout our meal the atmosphere was loud and weirdly tense. The staff were friendly, but seemed busy and overwhelmed. The prices are high, and didn’t match the overall experience.

Our favourite Berlin restaurant - unfortunately you did not live up to our expectations this time around. Tonight we went for the belly dancing show and set menu offer. Positives first: Very generous portions, be prepared for a big feast and lots of lovely flavours! Their lemonade is very fresh and delicious, definitely recommended as a refreshing aperitif. The belly dancer show was so energetic, excited that we finally got to see it! Great fun! Our prior experience, both at the old location and new, has been nothing but positive. Attentive staff, busy vibe and amazing food. However, there were some issues this time around that has made us wondering if this was our last visit. Our reserved slot was 18.00 to 20.00. We were welcomed and seated immediately upon arrival but then had to wait nearly 20 minutes before staff took drink orders. The starter wasn’t served until almost an hour after we arrived. To our knowledge at the time this left us possibly with only an hour to finish a 9 course meal. The dessert was served at about 20.00, so luckily it wasn’t as tight as feared. Yet again when we had finished our meal we also had to wait a long time at the bar to get to pay our bill. Unfortunately staff did not have time to pay much attention to our table during our stay. By the time we left staff had not taken a single drink-order from us, we had to make the request and generally it took some effort and waiting to communicate, as they were super busy running back and forth. Even presenting the menu and taking orders they appeared in a rush, talking very fast and «on the go». Starter: The seasoned bread was nice but dry. Some of the dishes that we expected to be served warm arrived cold at the table. Unsure if it was supposed to be like that, but the grilled cauliflower, falafel and roasted potatoes would have been nice served warm. The potatoes were somewhat chewy and falafel was not moist like before, unfortunately dry. The hummus was lovely, like before, however served with much added tahini now which camouflaged the hummus flavour and made it somewhat bland. Mains: By the time our mains arrived we were starting to feel full already. So great value for money, but quite overwhelming. Dessert: Coconunt pannacotta with pistachio crumble and a fruit sauce was lovely, but then again we were very, very full at this point. All in all we spent the majority of our visit waiting, and less time enjoying the food and taking the time to process and taste the lovely foods and flavours. Such a shame. The large portions are great if you have a big appetite and are a fast eater. We could’ve enjoyed half the size and therefore miss the opportunity of a la carte. The belly dancer was definitely a highlight, thank you for the entertaining show and spreading love! Edit: Would like to add that the staff was very friendly also this time. They were constantly running and probably did as best as they could given the number of staff available and dinner set-up, serving a full restaurant within a very short time frame.

Unfortunately disappointed! Price performance for lunch is far too high. The hummus wasn't very creamy and the eggplant was rather dry. Condition very friendly and helpful.

Food is delicious as always but this place is a mess. I ordered food online one day before to be picked up at specific time waiting now 20min because they missed my order....

1st visit: everything was great! Food was excellent, everything went quickly, despite being full. That's why we really wanted to come back. 2nd visit: poor. Had to wait a long time, staff was unmotivated or overwhelmed. Starters were very tasty, but unfortunately the egg in the Shakshuka was still raw… You have to be lucky who is there that day. But after the second visit I think it will take a while before we feel like it again :/

I'll start with the food: We were here for brunch and had a menu with an appetizer. The starters were very, very tasty and you were almost full from them alone. You could choose from 4 main courses, we had omelette and shakshuka. Unfortunately, the egg in the Shakshuka was still completely raw, but was put back in the oven. About the service: Because our order was taken relatively late, we only had our starter on the table after an hour. Then suddenly everything happened in quick succession with the main course following, even though we were still eating the starter. You had a bit of a feeling of being “eaten to breakfast”. All in all, the staff seemed a bit overwhelmed at times - but they were still friendly and accommodating. About the ambience: The ambience is always a bit of a matter of taste, but I noticed a bit of negative things here and there. At first glance, the restaurant itself is relatively chic, but simply furnished - almost a bit of a shabby look. The floor in the toilets and in the restaurant itself was relatively dirty, especially in the corners. In the toilets, the door to the washroom was also open and looked a bit shabby. All in all it was ok, but I didn't really feel comfortable. The atmosphere was a bit tense and when you pay that much money the overall package should be good.

Absolutely incredible food, the best roasted cauliflower of my life

So, we were at Kanaan on Saturday, 15th June for brunch. The food was excellent and the staff exceptional and so very warm and welcoming, especially the lovely lady who served us. Only who appeared to be the boss was…well, lets say that there’s room for improvement. Some words for consideration for the man in charge: you have a great restaurant and brilliant staff maybe start treating them with some respect. Nobody feels very good about themselves when you shout at your cooks and and interrupt your waiting staff while they are taking our order, especially when the restaurant is not that busy. It’s okay to feel important but putting that behaviour on display did nothing for you. I’m not telling you how to communicate but a good rule of thump is to treat and speak to others as you would like it done to yourself. I understand that as a boss you need to have authority but if everybody in your restaurant is wincing at how you treat the ones who hold everything together - you’re doing it wrong. I do hope you are reading this...maybe think about it and let your staff know how valuable they are...

The food is awesome, the waiters are, it's a safe and inclusive space too. Everything was perfect

I have no idea why there is such a hype about this restaurant. Is it a political statement to eat there? Minimal menu, quite expensive, tastes good so far.

The best vegetarian food I have ever tasted. Great service. Big portions (don't you worry, there is plenty of food). We got 9 dishes to share and it was perfect from the starters to the dessert. A must-visit when in Berlin.

It was a great evening, I can only agree with Lars. Unfortunately 600 km away

Very good Israeli cuisine with a twist.

Everything was amazing. Best hummus I’ve had in Berlin. The portions were bigger than expected

The food was one of the best Middle Eastern meals I’ve had. I recommend the hummus to anyone that goes here.

Fine cuisine and very friendly staff

We were there for the first time today and it was actually more than just nice and tasty. The service easily deserves 10 points, we felt so welcome and had a lot of fun because everything was easy and great! Even the music was cool! The food and drink left nothing to be desired, it was really good! We left there full and in a good mood, it was a really great experience and worth every cent! Thank you very much and best regards! Keep it up ♥️ see you soon!

So I can't understand the hype surrounding the restaurant. Maybe we just had a bad day. The atmosphere in the restaurant was not really hospitable (extremely bright light, garbage is carried out of the kitchen past guests, used dishes constantly bang on the floor at the kitchen counter, in the men's toilet there is a huge garden hose in front of an open junk room with a washing machine rum etc.) nor the service. Everyone is running around like zombies. Seems like it was a rough night before... The menu had no concept that I could recognize. What is the differentiation between starter and main course? Not at all taste-matched. A menu should tell a story, is a journey. Then it's better to put everything on the table straight away. Then I am my own travel guide. Overall, far too much. Everywhere at the tables around us there were moans about the amount of food. Better less and a little more quality. Overall, the food was pretty average. Not bad, but nothing special. It obviously didn't meet expectations at the neighboring tables either. There are definitely better addresses in the neighborhood for this type of cuisine. Prices are ok (menu 35 euros, bottle of Pinot Gris 29 euros) It's a shame, we were really looking forward to the evening. But unfortunately it was rather disappointing.

This might be the best food I've ever had. We ordered the business lunch and there were five of us and the waiter brought what they thought we would enjoy which was a little of everything. A huge amount of food and it was so delicious. All of the bread is the absolute best. My carnivore dad didn't even realize it was all vegan. They even brought some sugar-free hummus for the baby! He also loved this place!

The food was nothing more than ok, especially for the prices charged. The hummus was relatively tasteless, which was a big disappointment. Moreover, we felt we really didn't get the same level of friendliness or attention (regular check-ins if everything was ok, big smiles, some chit-chat) from the staff as the table of French tourists right next to us got, which felt weird and uncomfortable, as if we were less welcome than other types of customers (we were a PoC group). The cherry on the cake, however, was me bumping into a kitchen employee in the toilet, who had just used the urinal, and who thought it was ok to leave without washing his hands. Pretty shocking and, of course, extremely unhygienic. With all that said, even though I love the concept and philosophy behind the restaurant, I'm afraid I'll take my business somewhere else next time I want to eat tasty Levantine food.

The food was excellent!!! Unfortunately, we had to wait a long time for our food and then it was accidentally served to the neighboring table instead of us. When we wanted to order something more, we were told that unfortunately that wasn't possible because the kitchen was preparing catering - that's understandable, of course, but a little warning would have been nice so that we could order more from the start. In the end we went home a little hungry...

They still exist, the extraordinary gastronomic experiences. We were there for dinner with seven people. Everyone was thrilled. The food is authentic, the service is excellent and the atmosphere is great. Always my pleasure.

We had the menu for €33 per head. All in all it was tasty, although we were hoping for a little more. Because all tables eat the same course at the same time, it sometimes took a while. The location is rather uncomfortable, lacks a bit of ambience and is very loud. The food was eaten on plastic plates. Despite a reservation, we were seated at the farthest table, with a view of the shelf for the dirty dishes. That was really uncomfortable, but we were able to move around when asked.

Mouth watering food. And the staff are very friendly and describe all the dishes in a very fun and interactive way. We really enjoyed our visit 😄

9 course meal, delicious food, great presentation, friendly snd happy staff. The food was so well presented and tasted wonderful. Shared plates of 6 starters were so tasty, I wrote notes so I might try to replicate at home. We loved it- highly recommended. Oh, by the way, the effort of exhibiting Israeli and Palestinian kitchen and staff working together is applauded. Thank you.

We visited on Monday for brunch. We paid 31€ per person which included a drink. Tea, coffee or lemonade but unfortunately we all left hungry. The portion sizes are small. Starters were to share and not enough when you are in a larger group. The main dishes were not much better. The food was tasty we just wish there was more. Service was ok. A smile would have been nice.

We really enjoyed it and were more than full. We'd love to come back.

The food is very very good. An authentic dinner with Mediterranean flavours. All the guys are young, professional and very very kind. Perfect!

an Israeli-Palestinian mix that is truly magnificent these days. The food is excellent, the staff warm and friendly. Really highly recommended.

delicious food + reasonable prices + waitress is such a sunshine

A visit here is a must for connoisseurs of the Berlin restaurant scene. Because Canaan is a place where tolerance is celebrated with special food. We always come here with family or friends when we want something special. The menu selection in the evening has recently been simplified. There is simply a vegetarian 9-course evening menu for €33 per person for everyone. The 9 courses were all an excellent culinary delight and we were full and happy afterwards. The change to the menu also makes the service very efficient. The team here is always friendly. We therefore found the price justified. An additional plus point is the easy online booking and the option to pay by card. See you soon!

I found this place pretty average. The hummus was ok but not much flavour. The falafel also had a lot of fibres inside - apparently a herb, but in my food they knotted together into an Inedible knot 🤢 the pommes were tasty. Just overall a bit over-priced for pretty average food. Update, Kanaan have tried to have my review removed because they say I never visited their restaurant. So I have attached a photo of the meal I had. It's a shame they put more effort into having bad reviews removed than listening to their customers. It was a 3 star review because the food was average, but for trying to silence constructive feedback, it's a 1 star...

When I first discovered Canaan, I came back the very next day to eat more of the best hummus in the world! Whenever I'm in Berlin, I plan a visit there. It's a bit of a shame that the beach feeling of the guest garden has been lost due to the move - but the interior of the new location is larger and much more beautifully designed. The hosts are warm and as I said, the cuisine is excellent! Above all the hummus, but also baba ganoush, falafel & Co.

Beautiful evening in Canaan. Clear map but tasty. Food is served on the table as a kind of buffet. Everyone eats it.

Amazingly delicious food and lovely staff!

Had dinner there for dinner. Reserved a table in advance. The service is super friendly and very helpful. When the first course came, I thought that the three of us wouldn't be full, but everything was so delicious and we were actually already stuffed after the starters. The main course was also super tasty. A lot of work is done on spices. Yes, this quality comes at a price, but we would come back at any time. Thanks 5/5

Beautiful location with a 9-course menu to share and feast on. Super nice service. The homemade flatbread with hummus and artichoke was particularly delicious.

It was hectic, fairly loud, and when we left after 2h we hadn’t received our third main dish. Also they give you the same amount of food for 3 people as for 2. Food was alright but 33 euros for each menu are just to expensive for that. I thought they might have had a bad day but other recent reviews state the same.

Do odwiedzenia tego miejsca skusiły nas dopre opinie w internecie. Nasze przeżycia i odczucia były jednak całkiem odmienne od tych opisywanych. To miała być pyszna, miło spędzona kolacja urodzinowa, a był męczący, bardzo długi wieczór. Czas od wejścia do wydania ostatniego dania wynosił 2,5 godziny. Start był całkiem miły. Mimo, że brakowało win, które chcieliśmy zamówić, przemiły kelner, może właściciel (?) przyszedł i zaproponował nam inne. Wtedy ostatni raz w tym miejscu, poczuliśmy się zaopiekowani. Koncepcja i pomysł narzuconego menu, w zasadzie jest bardzo fajny, ale nikt nie wytłumaczył nam tego w przystępny sposób. Mieliśmy dużo niepewności z tym co dzieje się wokół nas, kiedy i co zostanie podane. Obsługa. Nie czuliśmy się zaopiekowani. Mieliśmy wrażenie, że obsługa nas unika. Nie mieliśmy pewności kto jest opiekunem naszego stołu, bo za każdym razem przychodził ktoś inny. Kuchnia. Kucharze podczas wydawania wieczornego menu kilkakrotnie wychodzili na zewnątrz. Było wielu gości którzy czekali na swoje dania (my już około godziny na pierwsze jedzenie), a oni bez stresu siedzieli na zewnątrz. To może berlinska tradycja? 🙂 Klimat w barze przedziwny. Najpierw usiedliśmy blisko kuchni, ale zapach środków czystości z toalety nas szybko stamtąd przegonił. Znaleźliśmy stolik bliżej barku, wydawałoby się że już jest dobrze. Ale przy barze, obok naszego stolika obsługa trzymała brudne szmaty, jakieś opakowania, płyny do czyszczenia itd. Wyglądało to bardzo nieestetycznie. No cóż... Knajp weganskich w Berlinie jest mnóstwo, a my musielismu trafić akurat tutaj. Bardzo duże rozczarowanie. Przy płaceniu rachunku, opowiedzieliśmy obsłudze o naszych odczuciach, o niedopuszczalnym dla nas czasie oczekiwania i wtedy natychmiast usunięto naliczone napiwki z naszego rachunku. My jednak, wolelibyśmy zapłacić napiwki i spędzić wieczór w bardziej przytulnej i sympatycznej atmosferze. Z dobrym jedzeniem. Ach! Niestety przez te wszystkie niemiłe wrażenia, dania i przekąski, które były smaczne nie zrobiły już takiego wrażenia jakby mogły zrobić. Wielka szkoda.

ad the brunch there- the menu Taste was good but the volume was very small for the number of people and price. Service unfortunately very ignorant and slow. Main dishes were served totally different than in the menu said. The service manager gave us the drinks on the house for this. But I find it very strange that the service did not notice another dish is made and served, considering there are 3 items on the men

Food super delicious, like in a restaurant in Jordan! I was impressed by the vegan shawarna. I love shawarma with hummus, but had never had vegan shawarma. It convinced me, even though I don't follow a vegan diet. Another highlight was the dessert, a chocolate mousse that was not sweetened with sugar. Classic dishes are imaginatively reinterpreted. Service very attentive, authentic atmosphere. Definitely recommended if you like or want to try Palestinian/Arab/Israeli cuisine. I'll definitely eat there again!

B0YC0TT. There is no such thing as Ishrli food as it has no culture, no country and no nationality.

Loveless mass processing of plastic dishes. Hectic and loud. Overwhelmed staff. Eternal waiting time between starters and main course. Overall, not enough food per person. The taste of the first and main courses does not differ. The price-performance ratio is underground. Conclusion: Never again.

Restaurant in Prenzlauer Berg with oriental dishes and dinner for friends offer. A fixed menu is available at a price of 33 euros per person. served with several courses and mezze principle. Vegan gluten free options available, although identifying them was a bit challenging. Service staff were friendly, but also very monosyllabic in their contact. Drink selection includes delicious homemade iced teas/lemonades. Tasty in taste, but not outstanding in our opinion. It should be reserved. There is then a 2-hour time window. Was a bit tight. There was no dessert left.

The food was delicious, but the service was disorganized and lacked customer orientation.

Unfortunately, our visit to Knaan was deeply disappointing, marred by issues ranging from the service to the food itself. Notably, the customer service was lacking; a particular incident with our waitress using disinfectant spray to clean our table while we were still eating, without regard for our comfort or the food still present, significantly impacted our experience negatively. The pervasive smell of the disinfectant throughout our meal was also off-putting. Adding to our discomfort, the chef's expectation for us to express gratitude for the food, which felt uncomfortably pushy, compounded our dissatisfaction. This was particularly disheartening given that the food, especially the hummus we had looked forward to trying, was below par. The hummus was, frankly, the worst we have ever had, and the overall food quality did not live up to expectations in any way. We had hoped for a pleasant dining experience but were left with the strong impression that both the quality of service and food need substantial improvement. Sharing this in the hope that future diners will have a better experience.

everything is perfect, the food melts in your mouth, you think you are in Tel-Aviv on King David Street and eating an original falafel. It's a shame that you can only eat a full menu in the evening. Definitely recommended, reservation is recommended.

They made us wait for 45 min after our reservation for the table just because we had a baby with us. We got starters which were tasty. We waited another 2 hours and 30 min for the mains to arrive but they never came. Really disappointing experience and pretty ridiculous overall.

The food is delicious. We found the pickled white cabbage particularly special (no joke!). The atmosphere is quite spartan, it was quite cold in the dining room. For us, being comfortable is different. You should also have at least some knowledge of the English language, but if that doesn't bother you, a culinary experience awaits you.

It looks a nice place and good service, but the food is very pricey.

Our order was only taken after 25 minutes and after being asked. There was a strong draft in the corner of the kitchen. But we were kindly relocated. The appetizers came before the drinks. Unfortunately there was no serving cutlery and therefore no spoon for the hummus. The dishes were made of plastic. The cutlery cheap. The bread was old and cold. The main courses were no different from the starters. All in all it was an uninspired menu. We couldn't enjoy the 2 bottles of wine in the short time we had (served too late) or even think about dessert. There was also the loud music. :/ The price-performance ratio wasn't right either.

Die schlechteste Bedienung, die ich je erlebt habe, das Verhalten des Personals gegenüber meinen Gästen (es war ein Geburtstagsessen) unfreundlich bis unverschämt. Eine Ungastlichkeit, die ihresgleichen sucht. Gemessen daran und an den verwendeten Produkten und ihrer mangelhaften Präsentation waren die Preise viel zu hoch.

A restaurant with a special charm. Cozy interior, nice service and very good food. Thanks. I would love to come back. Small note: only card payment possible.

Very tasty Israeli-Palestinian food. Several different starters in advance. The portion of the main course afterwards is very generous.

Amazing experience! Amazing food and service! Thank you!

Concept, quality and price-performance are perfect. We were unusually late, but after consulting the very friendly service staff it wasn't a problem. There was a menu of starters and one of three main courses to choose from, all vegetarian or vegan and very plentiful. Plus a great small wine selection. I have to say, my expectations (which were already high thanks to the cookbook) were massively exceeded; I haven't eaten so well in a long time. A bit noisy as it was very busy.

A culinary delight. We were thrilled by the exciting, fantastically coordinated starters and wonderful main courses. The courteous and friendly service underlines the feeling of welcome. The local motto couldn't be more timely.

Tons of vegan options. One of the best hummus I have ever tasted.

Lovely place with great servers and a touching concept woven through menu and interior design. Well known staple dishes reinforced and rooted in owners’ ethnicity. Will come back.

Great food and amazing service. Highly recommend it. Portions are very big! ❤️

This place offers low quality food for high prices. Not worth the price. And it’s crowded with bad service management

Absolutely incredible food! This easily makes the list for one of my favorite restaurants in Berlin. Huge plus was that the service was also incredible. We didn't have a reservation (on a Saturday evening) because we had to find a new restaurant after the first choice didn't have gluten-free options. The staff was very kind and let us wait to see if a spot opened up. It only took maybe 15 minutes and we got a table from someone else's no-show. The entire meal was perfect from beginning to end. My favorites were the Spicy Peppers platter, Eggplant Roulade, and Jalil's Matawaame, which was a soy based vegetarian dish with a rich Palestinian sauce (see picture). And we were so happy that they were able to offer gluten-free options for my friend. I can't wait to go back!

Awesome food made with love, and it shows. The food is super tasty. The waiters are friendly, attentive and efficient. The vibe is inviting and bright. Highly recommended.

We spent a lovely evening here and ate and drank well. Very friendly service, we felt very comfortable.

Great brunch - everything was tasty and well presented! Would recommend the set menus (instead of ala carte) as you get to try more dishes and flavours.

Visiting Berlin from the UK for a few days and thought we’d try something a little different at Valentines. Very welcoming especially as we were early. Staff all helpful, food fantastic, particularly wonderful and delicious selection of starters. Love the concept and hope it continues to thrive esp in the current climate. Just wish we lived a little nearer!

Five of us went to dinner, we had the set menu (all vegetarian) and two bottles of wine, it cost about 50 euros each, the portions were quite generous.

We had a dinner here yesterday and after 2 hours we were told to leave because a group came in. We didn’t manage to finish our food and drinks. That is extremely rude and unthoughtful. The price quality is suboptimal as well.

I was very excited to visit this restaurant, but the experience wasn't that amazing as expected. To start with the positive aspects: - food is really great although choice of warm meals is rather small and it's definitely better for lunch than romantic dinner. - I also really liked the branding part and the interior design. - You have to pay by card :) As for the negative part of experience: - the food seems to be overpriced compared to other restaurants with similar dishes with similar quality. - menu is so hard to decode - meals are bundled in some lunch/dinner options, available in different hours, some until 16:00 some from 18:00 so in between it is really confusing what is available and what is not. We spent too much time starring in the online menu (the only available one) not knowing what we can actually order, what will be warm and what is just like an appetiser. It took us around 25 minutes to order. - absolutely the worst experience was a huge fight that took place in the half open kitchen - some guy was yelling, scolding harshly some employee and that completely ruined the experience, we felt stressed and we could see that the waiter also felt ashamed but he couldn't do anything; so instead of chilled, nice, tolerant place - it felt like a toxic workplace. We felt sorry for the person in the kitchen.

I dont think it is worths it's price. For a breakfast with already prepared dishes to wait one and a half hour doesnt worth it

The food was lovely and the taste of the hummus is just like in Israel and Waif is really fun and happy. As a vegetarian, the shawarma was really excellent, the spices were like regular shawarma.

The food is delicious. The staff is adorable, I went there for my partner's birthday and asked if they could put a candle (that I brought) on the dessert and they offered tge dessert, which was super thoughtful. I would definitely bring more people there and I highly recommend.

Ich finde das Konzept mit vielen Vorspeisen und nur 3 Hauptgerichten zur Auswahl eher unglücklich. Die Vorspeisen, auf die man keinen Einfluß hat, sind reichhaltig aber waren wenig gewürzt. Die Auswahl der Hauptgerichte limitiert auf drei Speisen. Zuviel Zeit verging zwischen Vorspeisen und Hauptgericht.

Great restaurant with a great concept and nice ambience. We received a very friendly welcome, great advice regarding food intolerances and the food (business lunch) was awesome! Would go there again and again.

Went today for brunch, everything was delicous! We love the brunch option.

Probably the best hummus in the city. All the starters were really good.

Very very tasty. A little pricey but the food is worth it!

Every single dish they serve is Palestinian I would love to know what is israeli on the Menu...?? They're trying to steal the gastronomy and the culture like they stoled the land

The starters on the menu were particularly great!
