There were three of us eating and we didn't make a reservation. We got a table in the back room. Unfortunately there was a foul smell coming from the kitchen. A menu only is offered for €29.00; you cannot order dishes individually. We were looking forward to visiting the restaurant because Kanaan was recommended by “With pleasure”. The cuisine is said to be Israeli-Palestinian. So we expected fine Levantine food and were disappointed. The beetroot was not fresh and completely tasteless, the cauliflower was overcooked and watery, the coconut milk dessert also tasted watery. There was little good in this “menu” worth mentioning. In short, tasteless food for too much money. The very friendly service was positive, although - as in Mitte - they only spoke English. We were asked if we enjoyed the food. After we politely said no, the price for 1 menu was waived.

Too much hip, not enough top! December 16th, reserved at 6:00 p.m., for 5 people, got a table for 4. None of the photos so far show what it looked like at our table: the plates were piled on top of each other, there was hardly any space for the cutlery on the left or right. Tasty, but too expensive. Despite promises to the contrary, we constantly had to put our empty plates on an empty neighboring table ourselves. Nobody asked for a second drink until 7:40 p.m. - I had to get up and ask for a coffee. But the invoice was presented at 7:45 p.m. because the second round of bookings was due at 8 p.m. At 7:50 p.m. we hadn't had our coffee yet when the completely blasé, arrogant request came to vacate the table. When I remarked that we would finish drinking first, the woman suddenly couldn't understand/speak English anymore and sent a colleague. In the back part (towards the toilet) of the guest room there was a cloaky smell. Repetition excluded.

Very nice restaurant. We were there for brunch and did order two different dishes. For us already the starters were too much but everything was very tasty and we enjoyed it a lot. We will definitely come back to test the dinner options, but I can highly recommend coming here and enjoying the food. Especially in summer when you can sit outside. Also, we liked that it is a card only restaurant.

Food has been great and I like the one menu concept. Unfortunately it's been cold inside and it's been loud. Two things that can easily be changed. Service was nice and friendly but rather occupied and some confusion who was handling our table. Unfortunately we had to wait almost an hour until we were served that meant we had dinner 9 pm.

I visited this place for the first time tonight and it was an excellent experience. The menu was set and consisted of seven vegetarian dishes. The hummus with the vegan ragout was simply spectacular, but all the other dishes were delicious too. The waiter was extremely friendly, served us immediately and explained the menu in detail. I will definitely come back! Sono state stasera per la prima volta in this locale and is state an'ottima esperienza. The menu is now fisso, constituted by several vegetarian dishes. The hummus with the vegan ragù is in your heart's content, but it also has a very delicious taste. The camera is gentilissimo, it serves subito and it has an illustration of the menu in minute detail. Ci tornerò safe!

There were three of us and we had dinner quite early or lunch late. The rooms are small and simply furnished, but with a charm of Canaan, the biblical landscape. There is a hint of Arab-Israeli flair. If you need mica, you should go somewhere else. We liked it very much. Everything clean. The team was very friendly towards us and we immediately had a good impression. Great menu. Selected and got food quickly. Everything was good so far, but then things got significantly better. The food was incredibly good for all of us, no, excellent. We were thrilled and the portions were more than enough. Beautifully prepared and served in the dish from the oven, the food remained pleasantly hot. A fascinating taste. We were given great advice about dessert and enjoyed it even more to the fullest. It wasn't cheap but it wasn't expensive either, but it was certainly appropriate for the taste experience. In short: we were thrilled. We cannot confirm all the negative criticism read here. We'll definitely be happy to come back. P. S. I treated myself to the cookbook and have already read a few things. It's worth it. We'll be cooking with it next week!

The food was beautifully explained and described when served. Since we didn't know what was available beforehand, it felt a bit like we were staying with friends. The many small dishes had very varied flavors, some of which were new to us. A feast for the palate. And the result was a very pleasant satiety and wholesomeness. Absolutely recommended.

Disappointing Experience: Unprofessional Staff, Poor Atmosphere, and Bad Service Our visit to this restaurant was a complete disaster from start to finish. The food was utterly unappetizing, as we found hair in our dishes not once, but three separate times. When we brought this to the staff's attention, instead of apologizing or fixing the issue, they were incredibly rude and pushy, going so far as to accuse us of being responsible for the hair—despite the fact that the hair color didn't match anyone at our table. The situation only got worse when a staff member followed us outside to "defend" themselves, insisting that none of their employees had that hair color. This level of unprofessionalism was shocking and made an already uncomfortable evening even more unbearable. The atmosphere was dull and uninviting, and the menu was extremely limited. On top of that, we were pressured into taking a set menu, which was overpriced for the poor quality we received. The price-to-quality ratio is terrible, and the owner strolling around the restaurant with their coat on added to the unprofessional vibe. Staff members also openly stared at us, making the whole experience even more unpleasant. Overall, I would not recommend this place. The food is subpar, the staff is unprofessional and aggressive, and the entire experience was extremely disappointing.

The food is great. I expected the various dishes to be served as courses. However, everything came at once. The dishes were very good and interesting, and you were very full. However, the ambience might not be convincing. The lighting atmosphere and the hustle and bustle of the staff gave the impression of a canteen. The mood was relaxed and stressful. We didn't even stay an hour and wouldn't come back. The dishes were served carelessly and therefore lost some of their shame.

Visited with 2 other friends of mine. We had booked it in advance. Hospitality is incredible. We were greeted with warm welcome and we had been explained about the course on table. Food tasted delicious, and here comes my but… Food was good but we were paying 29 euros per person. So the food quantity on table did not make justice to whopping €87.00 though the quality was good. NOTE: later when we started reading the reviews, it was mentioned in the some reviews that it‘s UNLIMITED food when you opt for their menu than. However, if thats the case then we should have been informed about it while explaining about courses. During dinner, We had asked for extra Pita bread. And overall, some Pitas were soft and some were dry and not warm which made an impression being served stale bread. Yeah we finished every last bit on the plate. As we were three but yeah one pita bread per piece but hummus quantity same all for 2 people on other tables compared to ours felt little bit not justified.

We had ordered for two hours and were not rushed by anyone. I can't understand the bad reviews here. We found the evening menu very pleasant and tasty because we didn't have to decide anything. The service even noticed that a birthday was being celebrated and dessert was served with sparklers and a very personal congratulation. Yes, it's not cheap, but is it even that anymore? Everything is more expensive, everyone wants more money, but you can get food for an apple and an egg? We liked it and would recommend it to others.

Expected really great things given the hype and the media coverage. A little disappointed with the food we received. Some context....our standard of comparison being Abla's (a Melbourne Lebanese restaurant of forty years standing) doing family style food with unerring precision, startling freshness and wonderful depth of flavour. Kanaan, while tasty enough and showing us dishes we hadn't seen before, simply (no longer?) deserves the accolades. Lacks the expected freshness and vibrancy the food is capable of achieving. Had the sharing menu so we saw enough to judge fairly. Was also if anything over generous quantity wise....would have been happy with less and higher quality. Would have given the restaurant a 3.5 rating out of 5 rather than a 4. Pleasant atmosphere and friendly service.

In today's world, a restaurant run by an Israeli and a Palestinian, promoting tolerance and acceptance between people. and welcoming of everyone is unique. Kanaan lived up to its promise of inclusivity and acceptance, coupling it with beautiful food in a comfortable environment. We were treated to nine tapas style courses plus an Israeli cheese plate, partnered with Israeli wine. The hummus was out of this world.

The food was good, but unfortunately nothing special. Arabic cuisine that we know and get more often in Berlin. It wasn't a menu that I thought consisted of several courses, but rather mezze that were all put on the table at the same time. In my opinion the price is overpriced, but at least you could order as much as you wanted and you were even offered food to take home. We became aware of the restaurant because it was touted as one of the best gluten-free restaurants in Berlin. Unfortunately there was no gluten-free bread and no other special gluten-free dishes.

Hier kann man problemlos einen wunderbaren Abend mit Freunden verbringen. Es gibt ein Menü, das regelmäßig wechselt und das man sich teilt. Unverträglichkeiten werden vorher abgefragt und dann wird darauf eingegangen. Das Essen ist super lecker, der Hummus der Beste, den ich je gegessen habe. Es gibt auch sehr guten Wein unter anderem aus Israel. Am Ende ist jeder satt und zufrieden. Das Dessert hat nur noch einer geschafft. Alle, die hier arbeiten sind sehr freundlich und entgegenkommend und die Atmosphäre ist locker und ungezwungen. Wir kommen bei unserem nächsten Besuch sehr gerne wieder hierher.

We had researched vegetarian restaurants before our trip to Berlin. This venue was highly recommended and we throughly enjoyed our visit. We booked a table in advance and we took a tram from the centre of Berlin and it was hen only a short walk from the tram stop to the restaurant. There were many people sitting around the pavements nearby eating food they had taken away from the restaurant.The food was excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful when we were deciding what to order, guiding us regarding portion sizes suitable for the size of our party. Were we to visit Berlin again, we would not hesitate to return to the restaurant.

My first visit to Kanaan left me sadly underwhelmed. The food wasn't bad, but there was nothing exciting or interesting that I hadn't sampled before or wouldn't be able to dish up myself after a visit to some better sorted supermarket or Turkish Deli. Basically a selection of cold Mezze followed by a good dessert. The hummus tasted good and was hopefully homemade. The added 'fake' chicken is readily available from 'The Vegetarian Butcher' Brand. Dolmades, Baba Ghanoush, lacklustre Tabbouleh, pickled cabbage. Where were the cooking skills? Judging from the size of the kitchen, probably not massively advanced. A word on the wine selection... I think they need to do better than selling a €7 Supermarket wine for a hefty markup. It's not that difficult to find some good wine dealer who can source extraordinary wines that one can't buy at Edeka. Kanaan as a Israeli-Palestinian joint venture is a great idea, but it could be so much better executed.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 😄

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.

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.

Very unfriendly service. We had a larger group of participants planned for the visit, three of whom canceled. After ordering, the owner came to our table and demanded that we pay a flat rate of 15 EUR for the no-shows. Our reserved table was already fully occupied and it would not have been physically possible for more people to be there. The food we ordered was ok but nothing special. The operation was slightly uncoordinated. During part of the evening the owner sat at a table in the restaurant and put his head on the table and slept.

Service didn't even talk to me and handed me a Falafel for 6€ thats normally like 4€ everywhere. When I asked why they said that Sauce (Hummus) was 1€ extra, they just put it in there without asking though. Don't go there.
