Katz Orange in Berlin

Best restaurant I have ever been to. If you haven’t tried it, definitely check it out!

Good restaurant but the acoustics need to be reviewed if you have large tables.

Beautiful and interesting building, fabulous, varied and novel food offer, and really great, friendly service. Top atmosphere

In a charming side street in Berlin lies a restaurant that at first glance looks like an urban oasis. The atmosphere is immediately impressive: an artfully arranged mixture of rustic charm and modern chic welcomes guests. The decoration is detailed and stylish at the same time, with a perfect balance of warm wood tones, soft lighting accents and lovingly selected accessories. Everything looks extremely well maintained, right down to the immaculately clean tables that invite you to linger. The food is undoubtedly delicious, but it falls short of the expectations set by the high prices and surroundings. There is a lack of courage to try something new and that special spark that makes a dish unforgettable. Although the quality of the ingredients cannot be faulted, the execution of the dishes seems a little too confident - that certain something is missing. A disturbing point was the service. While he certainly tries to maintain a professional touch, the execution remains rather average. What was particularly negative was that towards the end we were charged for an unopened bottle of water, which was only put on the table after the meal and shortly before paying. Such details leave a bad aftertaste that spoils the overall experience. The bottom line is that the restaurant seems to live more on hype than on actual performance. The atmosphere may be tempting for a special evening, but if you expect culinary creativity and impeccable service given the prices, you might be disappointed.

Excessive prices for a very small card that somehow acts more high quality than it is. We had bratwursts that were lukewarm, the spare ribs, which also had a large layer of fat between the meat and the crust, were completely cold. The fries were hot and crispy, but extremely salty. The impudence - a charge for water for 3.50 euros per person - so the five of us had a bottle of water for 17.50 euros. It doesn't work at all. As an apology for the cold food, there were three mini pieces of cake. The service was nice. We still won't come back.

Good Food, nice Table but bored Service staff

Great cuisine & very cozy atmosphere

Great service and great food, as always, unfortunately there was an extremely loud company on the 1st floor, so the conversation about food was a bit difficult...

Great restaurant with the most delicious little things in town 💕

Food and service are wonderful. We were bothered by the noise level - it was a full evening - in the upper area, which made personal conversation very difficult. We would rather sit downstairs. See you next time

Great again! We were very lucky to have the same great waitress as last time. And it was just as great! Attentive, in a very good mood, competent and made great recommendations. The delicious food is again top-notch. Sustainable food prepared to perfection. The reception alone was a bit bumpy, due to a language barrier that we couldn't imagine. Definitely going to Berlin again next time. Thanks for the great evening.

Lovely place. Interesting menu. Friendly staff. It’s not cheap but felt like a good treat. We had the cauliflower - it was very tasty but very big (smaller would have been better) and ideally served with a green side vegetable

Super nice shop in a charming courtyard! Not exactly cheap but everything tasted very good

Super cozy and nice restaurant with really good service. The food was delicious, well prepared and plentiful. The sound level was very high, but otherwise a fantastic experience.

Delicious food. Gracious service. Very enjoyable

Had a lovely dinner with colleagues and business partners here, everything was top notch and the service was attentive and friendly.

We were thrilled! A great restaurant!

Great food, great service, great location. Once again a very nice evening here.

Food is very good! The ambience is different depending on where you sit: The extra room on the right is too warm and not comfortable, in the middle it is nice, sitting upstairs is again very warm.

We haven't been to such a great restaurant for a long time: the food was excellent, the service was excellent and the ambience was stimulating and very creative and attractive. We'll definitely be back!

I recently dined at Katz Orange for the fourth time, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. The main dish was served cold, which really impacted the quality and taste. I expected a warm, freshly prepared meal, but it seemed as though it had been sitting out for a while. The slow-cooked pork, which I remember as tender and flavorful, was lukewarm and lacked the tenderness it’s known for. Beyond the food quality, the service fell short. The waiter seemed rushed and didn’t take the time to answer our questions. Basic courtesies were missing—he removed our plates without checking if we had finished, leaving us feeling rushed and unwelcome. When we paid, he didn’t even wish us a good evening or ask if we had enjoyed our meal. It was disappointing to experience such low hospitality, especially since it was my French friend’s first visit to the city. Overall, this experience did not live up to my previous visits, and I hope the restaurant considers enhancing both the food quality and service attentiveness.

Really nice meal, great waiters. Super fun atmosphere. Would definitely go back!

Had a wonderful evening. Super location. Tasty food. Only point of attention. Make sure the description on the menu is correct. We ordered a brisket and got pulled pork. That was super tasty but not what we expected.

Note: I have updated this review with respect to how courteous of a reply they had to the original raw review. The feed back has been received, thus I'm writing a much lighter review. Arriving at the beautiful building was quite impressive, the staff were extremely welcoming and the resturant beautiful. We had the family style dinner, it was a bit hard to hear our server at times, but the starting cocktails were exceptional, unsure what they were, but they were great. The initial starters were great, well executed though hard to figure out what exactly the cuisine is. Odd mix of dishes. The pumpkin soup is amazing, but the mains for me were very disappointing. The signature, while can be broken down with two forks, it's more a crumble than a fall apart braise. Though this could be what's considered tender in Germany. The desert was also interesting, though odd still. A sort of shaved ice with toppings, similar to Kakigōri shaved ice in Japan. Cocktails again exceptional. The team care deeply about the resturant, I personally found the menu confusing and unbalanced. With certain items ruining my time. I will say I'm very critical of meat bring South African, so it's unlikely that others would have the same experience as me.

unbearably hot, no draft or air, although food good and staff pleasant- was so hot could not enjoy

It’s hard to review this restaurant. The food was superb but the experience was far from satisfying. We arrived at 8.00, by 8.15 the orders had been taken, the starters served and cleared (before the wine arrived) and the main courses had been served. When I enquired whether this excessive speed was normal, the vaguely disinterested server said the kitchen had been busy the night before and just wanted everyone out as soon as possible. Charming! So if you you want great food with minimum atmosphere or sense of occasion the go for it. If you want a more rounded experience then I’d give it a miss.

Great cuisine, great location, great wines and very nice staff

Great evening and great service, enjoyed it. The location and the food would be excellent.

Since it was a Saturday evening, the restaurant was busy and therefore quite loud. I really liked the design of the rooms! It was stylish but also comfortable at the same time. The welcome was warm, the coat rack was removed and we were seated at a table for two, which was honestly tiny and stood in front of a pillar in the middle of the room (so not exactly the nicest place in the restaurant). The staff was friendly and attentive. The map is small and clear. I had a portion of breaded cauliflower with potatoes for 23 euros. That's a steep price, but it was definitely very tasty. I found the prices of the water outrageous. A refillable bottle of still water was placed on the table and was charged per person... so at 2 x 3.90 euros that makes a price of 7.80 euros for water. That gave the whole thing a strange aftertaste. Despite everything, it is a great location.

Eten prima maar te duur. De huiswijn van 42 euro is niet bijzonder. Bediening vergat een hoop. Kortom, niet genoeg. Mooie entree maar daar houdt het voor mij op. Ik vond het niet de moeite waard allemaal

Very nice restaurant, great ambience. The food is good but not very good. The food and drinks are too expensive for the portions served and the standards that the restaurant has. Without asking, the staff replaces the water bottle that has not yet been completely drunk (sparkling water in an open carafe). This will then be charged with a further €6.

Just an exceptional dining experience. Everything was so flavorful. We did the tasting menu and essentially tried everything, it was a lovely experience, but to be honest the desert was the most underwhelming part. I'd recommend skipping the dessert tag on.

Very pleasant atmosphere and very well attended. We were just unlucky that the people sitting next to us at the table were incredibly loud so that we almost had to shout at each other to understand each other. But this is not the fault of the restaurant but of the guests. But the food was great!

Incredible from start to finish. Each dish was so flavorful and really complimented one another - it was all so delicious!! Excellent wine and cocktail menu, as well. Wonderful staff and ambiance. Just walking up to the restaurant is really warm and picturesque. I cannot recommend more highly! This is my second time going and cannot wait to return!

Wonderful evening in a great atmosphere, with very attentive service. Patrick gallantly accompanied us through the evening :) We'll definitely be back.

Really a cozy place - really good food👍 Good service and a nice informal atmosphere. A little hard to find, but highly recommended 😊 We got the long-roasted pig and it was good👌

Amazing food in a great location. We really enjoyed the wine selections as well. Had great help from the Italian sommelier, we really enjoyed our evening here.

Simply a fantastic location that you wouldn't suspect when you stand in front of the entrance to the courtyard and take a seat in the tastefully warmly furnished rooms. Let yourself be surprised 😉 Great, fresh, courteous service that brings very tasty and lovingly prepared dishes to the table. We were thrilled & very satisfied and will be back very soon.

A lovely restaurant that combines good seasonal cuisine with a charming ambience. Definitely worth one or more visits.

Lovely food, very nice cocktails , excellent hospitality. We went there without pre booking. It took about half an hour to get a table. In the meantime we sat at the bar and enjoyed lovely cocktails. It was a great experience

It’s pricey but well worth it for foodies everywhere.

It was a perfect, unforgettable evening at Katz Orange, a precious pearl of Berlin, big thanks to EVERYONE! Barbara and Peter, Isabell and Michael

Nice restaurant with extremely nice service and very good food. The location looks particularly good in the dark with the illuminated facade. Always my pleasure!

Beautiful location. Decent food. Slow service due to overcrowding. Price a little high

We had a great evening. We had the family menu, which is super practical because you can taste everything. The wine advice was top! So all in all a great evening. Thanks to the team and kitchen!

The Katz Orange is a very nice restaurant with wonderful food and very nice staff.

A very nice, special, different place... Very good food, very attentive staff and fantastic atmosphere. The prices (if you don't drink wine) are very correct. Highly recommended!

Went there for a friend’s birthday. Service and atmosphere was immaculate. We’ve had a family feast which was super nice. Only dessert fell a little short our expectations.

Thank you for this unforgettable and beautiful evening with you. The food, service and ambience were excellent

Ein sehr schöner Innenhof, in dem man wetterbedingt draußen essen möchte. Im Gebäude auch ein schönes Ambiente und eine angenehme Beleuchtung. Das optisches Wohlfühlambiente wäre ungetrübt, wenn nicht gleich beim Eintreten auffiele, das häufig den Betreibern von Szene-Restaurants der Unterschied zwischen einer Disco und einem Ort (nein, nicht location), an dem man gut essen und sich angeregt unterhalten möchte, nicht klar zu sein scheint. Kein Gruß aus der Küche, sondern aus der Akustikabteilung. Das Gewummer im Klangbrei sprang einen geradezu an. Auf meine Frage, wo denn der ruhigste Platz wäre, lotste man uns in die obere Etage mit der Bemerkung, nur hier oben könne man es leiser stellen. Oben hinter der Theke wollte man davon zunächst nichts wissen und erst auf meine nochmalige Bitte hin wurde es etwas leiser gestellt. Gegen diesen unangenehmen Einstieg hob sich die Küche wohltuend ab. Wir waren zu viert und konnten das Menu wählen. Sehr gelungen. Kann ich jedem empfehlen es so zu machen. Vorspeisen und Hauptgänge sind eine kombinierte Auswahl aus der Karte, deren Zusammenstellung man bei der Bestellung besprechen kann. So entsteht eine Tapas-Geschichte, die Spaß machte und durchgängig auf gehobenem Niveau daherkam. Die offenen Rotweine, ich hatte, einen Potugiesen und einen Merlot, waren nicht erwähnenswert, das glich der japanische GinTonic wieder aus. Alles in allem ein gelungener Abend, wenn nicht, ja wenn nicht …..

Very stylish location, both from the outside and the interior design. We received an extremely friendly welcome from the service staff. However, a very loud group of ten people was waiting for us at the next table - a conversation between two was hardly possible. It's a shame that the service staff didn't intervene. At our request we were implemented. A service person seemed quite stressed and kept us waiting longer when we asked for the bill. Previously, she forgot the coffee she had ordered and ended up not having enough change when we paid in cash. Basically it wasn't that bad, but her colleague obviously noticed the unrest, which is why she apologized on her behalf. The food, especially the meatless courses, tasted excellent. We would particularly recommend the main course with cauliflower. Overall, a great experience, a successful evening and worth recommending. Gladly again!

We had a wonderful experience at Katz Orange. The food was delicious. From the Burrata salad, which my partner said may be the best she has ever had, and she's tasted a lot, to the slow cooked pork and beef brisket - perfectly done, to the buffalo milk shaved ice cream with various toppings for dessert which was a delight. The location in an old brewery situated in a beautiful courtyard gives it a low key, rustic atmosphere. Service was excellent, especially considering how busy the restaurant was early on a Monday evening. It is easy to see why Katz Orange is so highly rated.

Katz Orange is definitely one of the must-visit places. The building, the atmosphere, the service, and the food were all fantastic. I will definitely return and recommend it to others!

Food was delicious. Service was great certainly one not to miss

Located in a beautiful old courtyard, this was our most outstanding dining experience in Berlin. The service was welcoming, gracious and efficient. Our server, Patrick, is a star! He gave us good advice, cheerfully offered accommodations, and made us feel special. And the food was absolutely delicious, perfectly prepared and presented.

Delicious and creative food, great ambience, courteous and friendly service, a great experience

Excelent and Jonas is the best.

Great German restaurant, especially when considering most ‘German’ restaurants in Berlin seem to focus on curry-wurst and schnitzel. The slow cooked pork and beef are elevated German cuisine, and worth searching out the restaurant for. The location and ambiance was great, though be prepared for it to be quite noisy. As for desert the crème brûlée was essentially two deserts as it came with a tea sorbet and peaches desert, which was really a desert in its own right.

Gorgeous inner patio in a beautiful setting for dinner. Cocktails are excellent and the food was great. I highly recommend.

It's not cheap but absolutely worth the price. Rarely have we had such a perfect price/performance ratio as here.

I do not know what was better, the food or the service. Genuinely of the best places I’ve dined at in Berlin, could not recommend more

Bellissimo il posto. Un po’ scarsa l’offerta alcolica, poche birre e poco vino per un posto del genere. La loro specialità, questa sorta di stufato, è buono e sopravvalutato. Costo un po’ esentato

Absolutely loved Katz Orange. Came here to celebrate a friend's birthday and very happy with the whole experience. The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating (special shout out to our fabulous waiter Patrick). Food was absolutely amazing and delicious, and the atmosphere is beautiful both the inside section and the outdoors. Highly recommend and will definitely return here.

Delicious food, something went wrong with the reservation system. So the place was overbooked, but we ate at the bar, which also went well. Delicious dishes, combinations and way of serving also appealed to me.

favorite restaurant. always great 🙏🏻

Culinary high-quality and extravagant cuisine. Location is also special and the overall package is also right here. The price is obviously higher, but it fits the concept. The food was very good and, above all, exclusive. Service was also great, a waiter explained the individual components of the meal and was always nearby and provided all the extras.

Eating excellently with 4 people, be sure to have the bread as a starter, I can recommend the Duroc pork as a main course, the meat is very tender and the sauce and side dishes are tastefully prepared with sophistication. What stands out is the service: extremely charming, very competent in wine advice, never intrusive, but always attentive - this also applies to the waitress, who had her first day at work. We will definitely and happily come back.

Nice location, our food was average

We were immediately welcomed very warmly and served very attentively throughout the evening. The food was extremely tasty 😋

Food was good. New young waitress great but Manager and Senior waiter were condescending and snooty. Won’t go back.

As always incredible food, impeccable service and one of the coolest places to eat in the world. We go every year for IFA and it never disappoints. Can't wait to go back again next year.

Pork was tough. Service was very nice. Atmosphere was beautiful.

The place is truly splendid! The food is OK, but doesn't necessarily justify the price. The staff takes great care, however, the pressure to consume, dispose of quickly or even order water (paid) is excessive. I understand that this probably doesn't come from the waitresses themselves, but it would be good to take the pressure off a little: your customers come above all to relax. This is the second time I've been here, and I noticed exactly the same problem.

Great place, wonderful service and every bit of the food was super tasteful. We’ll be back ❤️

The cauliflower dish at Katz Orange is hands down my absolute favorite meal. Every time we dine there we are amazed again. The quality and taste of the food is outstanding. The atmosphere of the restaurant creates an unparalleled experience. For us, Katz Orange is a place where enjoyment and ambience harmonize perfectly. We always look forward to eating there. :)

One of my favourite places in Berlin in a beautiful setting. The food is always lovely. You have to try the sourdough bread and butter, it’s divine.

Just a great shop! Always happy! If you're really hungry, the portions might be a little too small. But the quality is awesome!

Good food, beautiful location but prices too high for the amount of food they give you, I understand that it is a very chic restaurant, but 25 euros for 2 pieces of sausage, a bit of puree and a sauce and 17 euros for a bruschetta with octopus seem excessive to me, I understand that the quality is there but too expensive

I’ve been enjoying Katz for over 10 years. But what fall from grace. I proudly invited 3 friends to dinner and they kindly offered no comment on the experience. Our waiter was tweaked out. Yeah. Tweaking. Left the table before he had everyone’s order both for drinks and a meal. Just…ran off. Running around like a wild chicken. Saying random things. The food, apart from the buratta was entirely forgettable. I would have sent my breaded mushrooms on a waffle back to the kitchen as it was nasty. But I just wanted out. 150 euros I’ll never see again. Goodbye KO. It was a good run.

Perfect dinner at Katz Orange. The pork dish was delicious, the staff was very friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was great. We sat inside because they close the courtyard after a certain time for the noise levels, try to eat there before 9pm for a chance to sit outside. We were very happy to be inside either way :)

Excellent food, especially the slow-cooked pork was delicious! A bit on the pricey side, but worth the money.

We were there for dinner and the service was clearly on point, the location is sublime. The food was super good, and the wine was perfectly matching. A bit pricey but it’s not a everyday restaurant so if you want to make yourself a nice night feel free to go eyes close.

Still an excellent place after all these years

Delicious! I hope to return someday

A wonderful evening with incredibly good food, drinks and service, thank you! We will definitely come back.

Great atmosphere in the courtyard! The service was excellent! Good wine recommendation. The food was great (we had the pulpo, the duroc and the beef). Everything very tasty! A second helping was not necessary, but it was a great offer from the restaurant. We would come here again at any time. Reservation would definitely be an advantage as it was very well attended.

Food very good, old brewery converted to restaurant. Sitting inside gets very noisy, almost annoying when busy. Very helpful staff, answered all sorts of questions thrown at them.

Great here. Very nice service, nice restaurant, good food

In short, everything was great! What struck me was the excellently organised, friendly and also warm and fast service, which, right down to the excellent food, revealed an explosion of taste for my palate - I would be happy to do so again at any time 👍😎

The food was very good, the waiter was friendly. But I agree with some previous comments, the portions are small, which means that the quality/price ratio is quite expensive. Furthermore, the fact of having to evacuate the terrace very early (we certainly suggest that you finish inside) is quite unusual.

Thanks for the delicious food and hospitally. Mr Joanne is very kind, welcoming and friendly. We will come again.

Great food: fine dining vibes but good portions. Lovely staff 💖 and the place is cozy and full of inspiration

Our favorite restaurant from our six days in Berlin. One of the most beautiful restaurants anywhere, with rustic decor and well-collected art. The expansive but cozy courtyard was buzzing with diners, so we chose to sit just inside, next to the window to enjoy both views. Per the waiter's advice, we chose to get one not two starter artichokes (plenty!) and split a great salad. My husband had a good salmon dish, but my 12-hour roasted pork and vegetables was the show stopper. We were too full for dessert but got two petit fours and some chocolate on the house. A sophisticated place but not pretentious.

I was here many years ago and back then the Katz Orange was simply delicious and great. Unfortunately this time it was very disappointing. From the impossible waitress to the food, unfortunately it's absolutely not my thing anymore. I found it way too expensive for the quality. The sophistication, taste and quality of the products are missing. It is interesting that dishes with the allergen soy are labeled and at the same time this should mean that they also contain gluten. What probably means is that soy sauce is used. Soy itself is gluten-free! It's not soy sauce! The dishes would have to ADDITIONALLY have the gluten label. Although you could also use gluten-free soy sauce without any problems. Unfortunately, this means that as an intolerant person you can only eat one weight. And unfortunately it ended up being contaminated as I didn't get it. The waitress will not have communicated the intolerance to the kitchen (given how she behaved). Too bad.

Very nice restaurant... you enter through a very hidden entrance, to find yourself in a welcoming, intimate and elegant yet casual internal courtyard The food is really excellent... the prices are a little high, but everything is brought back on track by the fact that, for the liters ordered, an encore is granted if requested... which we requested, given that the "dry" meat aged” was really excellent!! Another plus point was the service, the waiter who served us throughout the dinner was really kind, helpful and attentive to all our needs, considering that we also have a small daughter

It’s a really nice cozy place. Not overdoing anything. The staff was very kind and the food was really good!

Wonderful location. They closed the terrasse at 9pm30 which is understandable for neighboors. Cuisine however is not at all worth the prices. Simple not sophisticated, tasty and well presented enough.

Very good cuisine, the meat, the salad, the wine, the vegetables - everything was super tasty! Unfortunately, the waiters are a bit unfriendly when stressed. The restaurant is very elegant, but the service is not up to par.

Excellent food in a great atmosphere, most attentive, competent advice and friendly care. Highly recommended. Very nice and extensive wine selection.

Very nice location and very good service. Unfortunately, we were not at all convinced by the quality of the starter (salmon ceviche) and a side dish (bean salad) as well as a selection of red wine. The other dishes were good, so maybe expectations were too high :-) Still a very nice location for a nice evening.
