Katz Orange in Berlin

Magic place, with this story of the gourmet they let you happily pay about 30€ for half cauliflower grilled. Ridiculously expensive, hilarious if I remember that when I was a child cauliflower was a kind of punishment for misbehaving during the day. Please do not tell me that I do not understand your finesse, this would be not true as I am talking about the price of the dish as cauliflower is always cauliflower, at the most an intelligent management intuition to have good margins that I do recognize. There is a limit to everything, I will stop going around for restaurants, if this story does not end sooner or later. The service and the atmosphere is anyway cool. This was not the first time I went there, most probably the very last.

The place was beautiful and the service exceptional. The girl who served us was always very attentive and made it incredible considering we were a very large table. However, the prices caught our attention. On the phone, they told us the menu was €55 per person—it ended up being €68. They also charged for absolutely EVERYTHING, even the bottles of water (which they brought more without asking and took away before we even finished them) and the bread (which makes no sense not to be included in such an expensive dinner). Between that and what we had, it ended up being around €100 per person. While I really liked the restaurant, that price left me with a bitter feeling of lack of information and that it wasn't worth the expense.

The place is even more beautiful than the photos. Alina served us lovingly and guided us through everything. The menu combines ingredients in an original and exquisite way. The whole is not the sum of its parts. We tried ceviche, potatoes, salmon, and crème brûlée; everything was incredible. We ate at the bar, where the bartender was attentive to every detail. Without a doubt, one of our best dining experiences in Berlin. ❤️

I love this place for its atmosphere — it’s been my favorite restaurant for many years. But last time I didn’t enjoy the food. I had a steak — it wasn’t good, overcooked. Now I prefer stopping by for a glass of champagne at the bar.

wonderful food and great service

You're charmed from the moment you arrive. The building is superb (a former brewery), and the terrace is very pleasant. Very good homemade slow-cooked meat specialties.

We had a very pleasant evening. The food and drinks were exceptionally good in a very nice restaurant. We'd be happy to come back.

Staff was amazing, Joshua especially took great care of us, we had a great time, would love to come again, we had a perfect evening!

Had a nice IT event. Very good good and nice location . Worth visiting

The food was pricey but amazing. Loved the location, just be aware there are a lot of mosquitoes by the river. The service was unfortunately not good at all. We had a rude waiter who would rarely even take our orders, and if asked for something he would always roll his eyes or give a rude comment. Also had to look for the waiter all the time, I don’t really like it’s be in a restaurant where you permanently have to look for a waiter and then have to try to catch their attention.

The restaurant looks beautiful from the outside, and it's pleasant to relax on the terrace. We had both options for the long-cooked meat. It was quite tasty, but not particularly special. A few minor issues with the service: all two-person tables were still empty when we arrived with our reservations, and we were initially offered a table near the kitchen exit. The dishes consisted solely of the meat, and the waiter insisted that it wasn't enough and that a side dish was needed. That's fine, but if the standard portion is too small, I would adjust that to the normal portion. It seems like a trick to stack dishes to justify a higher price. The fact that a mini container of sauce with the fries was another €2 extra adds to that suspicion.

Very good experience for our Anniversary Dinner. The food was amazing, drinks were creative and the staff were attentive and polite.

Very nice ambiance and great food, but the service could be improved. The courtyard is particularly beautiful, but the restaurant is quite noisy, making it difficult to have a conversation at times.

Unfortunately, not what it used to be. I was with a group of colleagues and was very happy to bring them here because of my past positive experiences with Katz Orange. However, this time the service was sub-par to say the least. Two of my colleagues ordered the same dish and the waiter brought one piece of meat in one serving and quoted that, "Its two portions" expecting two people to "split it". Leaving the small portion side aside, the least they could do is to bring at least two servings (even if they cut it in half in the kitchen). One of my colleagues also ordered a drink along with the main course. First, they forgot it and on reminding, they still brought it 10 mins later and that too the wrong one! Another waiter started picking up the plates without asking while one person was still eating (and we were only there for 30 mins at a non busy time - the reservation was for 2.5 hrs) You don't go to such a place for "just the food", you go there for experience. Sadly - it was disappointing to say the least. The staff also had an antagonizing demeanor towards all customers there. I was quite embarassed in front of my colleagues at a place that I so highly recommended them. Not going back again. ++ Not surprised at other negative reviews. The management needs to rethink, how to train their staff better and teach them to ask for customer feedback.

Recommended venue, venue in a former Bavarian brewery setting, suggestive summer exterior, welcoming interior, refined cuisine without exaggeration or extreme pairings, excellent raw materials, highly respectable wine list

Overall not recommend. Ordered the specialty pork, which was very dry and came with no side, for almost 30€. The salmon was "meh" in the sense that it's cooking style is very similar to what you would make at home for a quarter of the price, or buy in the average lunch place for a half. The waiter openly rolled her eyes at us in disappointment when we opted not to drink booze. We were sitted on the upper floor, which is noisy, facing inwards and so didn't even get to truely enjoy the location. We had to get something extra to eat afterwards. Disappointing. Unless you are sitted outside - don't bother.

We had a relaxed dinner yesterday at Katz Orange. The location is beautiful and offers a wonderful atmosphere. The service was also very friendly and attentive, we felt very welcome. Unfortunately, the food didn’t quite live up to the setting. We ordered the 10-hour braised steak and pork. While the atmosphere and service were excellent, the dishes were almost disappointing: the pork was so dry it was almost impossible to chew, and overall the meal felt like something I could have prepared at home. A real pity with such a great atmosphere, I had hoped for more from the kitchen.

Modern and well-prepared cuisine. A gift for German cuisine, which is too repetitive.

The courtyard seating is very comfortable and more quiet than interior seating so we enjoyed our conversation over dinner. The service was expert and attentive. All our dishes were correct and arrived in order; kitchen is organized. Flank steak and the onion side dish were excellent. We will make a point to return.

Best espresso martini in Berlin along with a great atmosphere! Music is bumping

Katz Orange is an absolute gem in the heart of Berlin. The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between cozy and sophisticated — warm lighting, beautiful décor, and a welcoming vibe that makes you feel instantly at home. The food is simply outstanding: every dish is crafted with incredible attention to detail, full of bold flavors yet wonderfully balanced. The slow-roasted pork is a true highlight, tender and packed with taste, but even the vegetarian options are just as thoughtful and delicious. The cocktails are creative and expertly mixed, complementing the menu perfectly. What really sets Katz Orange apart is the service: the staff are attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do, which elevates the entire experience. Whether you’re looking for a romantic dinner, a special celebration, or simply an unforgettable night out in Berlin, Katz Orange is a must. Highly recommended!

This is a great restaurant in Berlin. Super friendly, accomodating and professional staff. Amazing food and cocktails and wonderful atmosphere. Next time im in Berlin I'll be making a point of returning. Thoroughly recommend 👌.

Still one of the best place in Berlino

Attentive service, cozy atmosphere, very good brisket.

Really good food, with decent portions size. Great drinks and they were very accommodating in the typical German way.

such an amazing place, great food and very kind service

Dry aged beef brisket was amazing.

Service and food just perfect 👌

Many thanks to Giovanni, who gave me a warm welcome when I recently purchased a voucher for a wedding there. Not only did he go to great lengths to make a lovely gift out of the voucher, but he also left me a delicious welcome from the kitchen! The atmosphere, as always, was wonderful!

Great service and great, creative cuisine

Great atmosphere, great cocktails and amazing food!!

Very nice ambiance, creative food, and friendly service. Portions could be larger.

Thank you, we'll be happy to come back. Good food, friendly service – perfect all around!

A very welcoming and characteristic place, with a top-quality menu, truly excellent wines and spirits, and a friendly and organized staff. I recommend it to anyone visiting Berlin 👌

Beautiful place with a dreamy ambiance! The food was truly, truly, truly delicious—every bite was a delight. Our waitress, Sarah, was warm, attentive, and even charmingly resolved a small "bee situation." Thank you so much for this wonderful evening—I'll definitely be back!✨

Great atmosphere and delicious (vegetarian-friendly) food! I'd love to come back.

Great shop, I just felt comfortable, top service, delicious food

Just wow. Tried most of the starters and seconds. All were prepared and served to perfection. I wholeheartedly recommend the duroc pork and cauliflower. Shaved ice cream for desserts was a top. It goes without saying they've got great wine selection and culture to match. Service was just on the other level. Kind and very experienced staff. Table felt attended and cared for at all times even when we came at busy night. The outside seating was comfortable, easy to talk, good distance from other tables. Overall amazing experience. Happy to have had an opportunity to pop by.

Wow!!! First of all, let's start by saying that the tag calling this place a German restaurant is so incorrect. I don't love German restaurants, and nearly missed out on this amazing gem because of this. This is an international and sophisticated cuisine restaurant in a chill and unpretentious environment. As soon as you walk through the entryway into the courtyard - you're transport to a different realm. The unique structure, which I think was a brewery once, is spectacular both day and night. We've had delicious burrata salad, soir doigh bread, fries, fresh ceviche, Candy on a stick (what they call their brisket), Salmon, and amazing drinks. Thr cocktail menu is creative and I wanted to taste everything! Ended up trying Parti a la Plage, Pickeltini 2.0 and Fabulous - all we're sophisticated and delicious. Service was spectacular as well. One note: the restaurant encourages you to taste everything - and as such, dishes aren't big. Take this into consideration, and order a little bit of everything :) You cannot come to Berlin and not try this place - this is gorgeous!!

The experience was beyond my expectations: the food, atmosphere and the knowledgeable and personable service. As a tourist from Australia, Katz Orange was a truly pleasurable way to experience local farm foods with all the contemporary appeal of texture, flavor, presentation and ambiance, packaged with impeccable service. Very highly recommended - thanks Ignacio and team.

We chose this place to celebrate our anniversary. If you go without a reservation, you're likely to miss out. From the moment you enter, the restaurant's ambiance and atmosphere truly captivate you. The food was truly delicious and fine dining. Since we couldn't get along with the waiter, he referred a Turkish friend and gave us some great recommendations. We were grateful. The prices were a bit high compared to the Berlin average, but it was a wonderful experience. They even gave us dessert as a gift for celebrating our anniversary. Thank you.

The cauliflower dish is fabulous. I recommend trying the pork, too. Excellent service and very attentive staff. I had a fantastic evening.

Beautiful location, high-quality food, and fantastic service. One of the best restaurants in Berlin. Highly recommended!

It was amazing, the best service thank you again

A wonderful evening with upscale German cuisine, focusing on high-quality products and minimal frills. Highly recommended.

Great service, very good atmosphere and of course very good food.

Food - nothing special and overpriced. Typical Berlin staff - nobody speaks German. Went with two people to have a quick dinner. Place was not that full and still managed to get some table in a cloaca with no view to the outside.

Cool ambience - great service - very good food

Food is very delicious and uncommon. Prices are fair. Ambiente was not fitting to the food experience. Loud Music, louder people, hard & uncomfy chairs. Service was bad. Always feel pushed to order more and the behavior was overall very unproffessional but friendly. Service personal should make guest feel pleasant and not the opposit way. The concept of the menu is not clear. It should be explained and recommandations for combinations & meal sizes should be given.

We chose Katz Orange to celebrate our first wedding anniversary, hoping for a warm and memorable evening. Unfortunately, while there were some highlights, the whole experience fell short of expectations. We were initially seated at a shared bench area with little privacy, despite mentioning our special occasion. After requesting a change, we were moved to a more comfortable table. The hostess and food runners were especially kind, but the main server was polite yet distant. Our drinks arrived late—only with the main courses—and my glass was chipped. After two requests, I drank from the damaged glass to avoid further delay. Food quality was mixed. The salmon ceviche was magnificent, while the asparagus lacked flavor and had poor texture. The brisket was tasty. Desserts were average, though we appreciated a complimentary second dessert. Overall, while some dishes stood out and the ambiance was nice, the rushed and inattentive service, combined with the portion sizes, impacted the experience. Considering the price of the dishes, we expected a higher level of attention and quality. For a special occasion, Katz Orange did not meet our expectations.

The location (and the bathrooms) is really nice: classic, warm, elegant, modern. The food was good, but the value for money was not entirely adequate. For four people, we paid €210 for one main course each, three side dishes, a glass of wine each, and a shared dessert that had initially been forgotten in the order.

This place is even better than it looks online. Intimate setting, attentive yet not overbearing staff and the very rare achievement - innovative locally sourced comfort food. If I lived in this neighborhood I could see eating here a couple of days per week. Extra points for getting to eat in a well cared for historic German building.

Katz Orange was in a stylish beautiful old brick building with outdoor tables in a courtyard surrounded by the restaurants indoor seating on three sides. The hostess and wait staff were welcoming and the table was relaxed wood, beautifully set. The menu was small but appealing. I started with the watermelon, tomato and feta salad. It was a large portion super fresh, with the most amazing blend of savory and sweet flavors. I then had the beef short ribs with yogurt and gravy sauces. Fall of the bone delicious. The portion size was solid and more than enough for one, but it comes with 2nd helpings included, but I was full. I also had the potato and leek tartlet as a side, good size and perfectly crispy and cheesy. The waiter brough a few sweets and a digestive for me, probably because he disappeared for a while, a minor issue. A larger wine list by the glass (they could use a Sancerre and a Vermentino) and more expansive drink menu would be the only improvement I would suggest. By far the best restaurant so far on day 4 of a 6 day visit to Berlin from this veteran of the NYC fine dining restaurant scene.

A restaurant with modern, all-you-can-eat dishes, attention to detail, and very attentive service. Located in a stunning courtyard. I generally had a great time; everything was high-quality, and we received excellent advice on the wine selection, especially the drinks, which were excellent. It must be said that overall, I found the bill a bit pricey.

One of my favourite spots in Berlin

Fantastic! Food was delicious, especially the spare ribs and eggplant.

This place is just perfect. The outdoor area is truly extraordinary, beautiful and inviting. The inside is a bit less impressive, but still nice and pleasant. The service was fantastic, easily the best I’ve experienced since I’ve been in Germany. The food was also very good. Honestly, I have nothing to complain about. Highly recommended!

Not for those on a budget. It's expensive, but the food is delicious, and the staff is really friendly and highly trained. More for a special evening. Not a simple dinner. But that's not meant negatively. It was an incredible experience. It was really fun and delicious.

A beautiful location, we sat in the courtyard, the staff were friendly, and the food was delicious. We had the watermelon with feta and the burrata as starters. They were delicious. For our main course, we had the tagliatelle and the Duroc pork slow-cooked for 12 hours. Both were also delicious. Highly recommended.

Lovely elegant restaurant Friendly and helpful staff Great service

great food, very creative and still authentic taste

The ambiance is quite nice. The cocktails are very good.

Cute place with excellent food and friendly staff - a definite recommend!

The food was delicious and served quickly. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and the service is friendly.

Cool atmosphere and delicious home-cooked food. The wild boar goulash was great, but a bit expensive.

Hidden restaurant with fantastic pork belly. Hip, but not overcrowded.

Beautiful atmosphere in a historic building in old Berlin, excellent service, good food. Will return and recommend to others.

A great restaurant that's halfway between fine dining and a classic restaurant—stylish but not stuffy. Very good food, attentive service.

It was great, as always. We sat at the bar, which is always nice and fun.

Everything about this place was spectacular! food, ambiance, service - amazing! definitely a must in Berlin for amazing, modern food with local care.

Fantastic German Rest. Definetly go❤️

Wonderful food. Staff were very attentive. Atmosphere was excellent. Overall a great experience

One star deducted because the noise was so loud that even three people couldn't have a conversation! Perhaps there's a way to soundproof without ruining the ambiance. The food was great, even with seconds! Dessert was also very tasty.

Delicious food, warm atmosphere and that's all I want to say - definitely try this restaurant out - if you're not already a regular!

The patio, the house, the food, the waiters, the experience. Everything was a 10/10. The house, the patio, the waiters, the food, the experience was a 10/10. The waiter spoke Italian, Turkish, Spanish, and German in a magnificent way.

If I could give more stars for service, I would. From entry to exit, I was blown away by how kind and professional the staff was. Not only was the food phenomenal, but I would revisit just because I enjoyed being there

You step in thinking, “Is there really a place like this here?” But the moment you enter, a hidden gem unfolds—instantly lifting your mood. The staff is welcoming and attentive, and every dish exceeds what you could’ve imagined. Though the portions are modest, the flavors run deep—so much so that you’ll find yourself scraping every last drop of sauce. These days, it’s rare to find food that truly surprises you, but this place brought back that thrill. Order as many dishes as you can. They won’t just please your palate— they’ll dance across your mind and tongue.

Great, relaxed atmosphere, very friendly service, good food.

A truly great restaurant with exceptional cuisine. Small portions – similar to tapas – that you share with others. Really great, unusual, and very tasty dishes. The service was friendly and prompt. The only downside was that the noise level inside was incredibly loud, making it difficult to have a conversation. I would still come back.

The food was delicious. My girlfriend was surprised with a small dessert for her birthday :) All in all, a great experience

it was excellent ! best restaurant in berlin from far

We've been going to Katz Orange for years. It's always a delicious culinary experience.

We really liked the restaurant. The service is first-class. The food is excellent and the concept is very good. I highly recommend it.

Deliciosa comida y un edificio único con una buena variedad de vinos. no es un final alto, pero esto tiene su propia alma - joya escondida, por así decirlo

On our second visit in a week, I met Ignatio, the somellier. I enjoyed his knowledge on wines and also his friendly yet professional approach to our selection of wine.

Elegant and special location..kind staff and exquisite food. Highly recommended

Nice atmosphere in the courtyard but the food could have been better and more of it for the price. Limited beer options. Two scallops for around EUR 16, small steak for around eur 32. Service was also cold. Go for the vibes but don't expect amazing.

A lovely place with great food and friendly service

The seating area under the mirror is definitely too low. The mirror itself is annoying and distracting (more of a personal opinion).

What an amazing place! Location is super cute, both inside as well as in the courtyard. Food was incredible - we tried the tasing menu with 8 people and it was super tasty. Highlight was definitely the service - probably the best I have received in Berlin so far.

The food is poor in relation to the quality and quantity. The ambiance in the restaurant doesn't match the high prices either!

To find a spot like this in Berlin makes no matter how your day goes it a 10+ experience! In addition, the service, their attention/genuine interest and their advice, complete the picture! When we are in Berlin again, Katsorange will be on our menu ;-)

Cooking with a passion for experimentation The food is super delicious, with wonderfully well-combined dishes, beautifully presented in colorful dishes. The asparagus is crisp and spicy, the potato gratin melts in your mouth, and our other dishes are just as delicious. The service is delightful and very attentive. The decor is wonderful; just give it a try.

Wonderful as the first time I visited Berlin 10 years ago! Couldn’t wait to share it with my husband & son and they loved it too!!

The aperitifs were average in taste and somewhat poorly presented, and Ken felt like an urgency after the starters. The starters and the Duroc pork were excellent, as always. The Jutland salmon was steamed far too much and thus overcooked, but the crust was subsequently perfected. The petit fours and the sorrel ice cream with strawberries were very good, and the crème brûlée had a lot of room for improvement. Regarding the service: too many staff with little efficiency; you get the impression that half are semi-trained, the other half are new to the job, which was a shame. It seemed very confusing. The service staff's overall clothing seemed shabby; it was probably meant to be casual urban, but it is shabby. From the personal T-shirts to the partially dirty shoes (Converse, for example, which were past their best), which was a shame. Otherwise, a very pleasant evening, as the outdoor ambiance is very pleasant.

Great food (the ceviche!), fantastic cocktails (Umami Midnight!), and great, unfussy service! Perfect all around!

A glass of sparkling wine on the house to start – it makes you feel like you're paying an honorary visit to Mother Merkel. Speaking of which: High-ranking politicians were sitting at the next table, and we were right in the middle of it all, between the filet and the office gossip. The food? Absolutely delicious! The taste was top-notch; you can tell the kitchen's got it. It's just a shame: we'd barely ordered and the plate was on the table – it was almost like speed dining at a deli. We would have loved to indulge in all the fancy stuff for another round. Not exactly cheap, but hey: you get something on your plate and something to look at. Katz Orange? You can do it – and with style. Full marks, eh!

Unfortunately, the food was only lukewarm, both the warm starters and the main courses. The taste was only "okay," but not as good as my first two times at KatzOrange.

A great location with a fair price-performance ratio. Given the current warm temperatures, we were offered a nice spot on the spacious terrace. Unfortunately, the table rattled, and the chairs weren't particularly comfortable either. The food was regional and highly recommended. The service was friendly and attentive, but "only" English-speaking. Not a good impression for a restaurant of this price point. Overall, we'll definitely be back, but we would appreciate it if the staff spoke better German.

I've been a regular there for years. The ambiance is outstanding and the food is fantastic. The service is truly world-class. As a regular, I was kindly given dessert as a gift. A truly top-notch restaurant. I'll definitely be back next year.
