Lokal in Berlin

One of the best place in Berlin.

Small portions and very expensive. But still creative dishes. You can try it. The shop itself is very cozy and the staff are nice. You always have to reserve in advance. Not for spontaneous visits.

For higher prices (main courses €24-40), the restaurant offers really tasty and interesting food in a wonderfully pleasant atmosphere. If the service were a bit friendlier and I didn't have to pay an extra €5 for extra bread on a bill of €190, that would be 5 stars.

I have visited the restaurant in 2013/14 and then again in 2024. What remains the same is an unpretentious style, full focus on ingredients quality and freshness, local & bio origin, and creative appeal to the meals. What changed is the value for money: the prices went through the roof, somewhat spoiling the experience. Also, service is rather unexperienced / uninspiring. Still, it is a great please, for me though a little biased by nostalgia.

What a find! I was travelling on my own in Berlin and this was the perfect place for a solo diner. The staff were so kind & friendly as well as professional. The food was terrific especially the duck breast entree and the cheesecake. If I lived in the neighbourhood, this would definitely be my Lokal.

Overall had a lovely time at Lokal. Started with salmon and bell peppers - the salmon was the pick of the two as the bell peppers was a bit one note after a while. Mains we opted for the ginuea fowl and pasta. Pasta was a bit meh but the fowl was amazing. Excellent crispy crust and so much flavour. Got the gratin and salad on the side - was a lot of food! Probably would have skipped the pasta and salad and it would have been perfect. Menu changes often so what we had last night may not be what’s on offer! They have an English menu on the second page of the menu booklet and service was lovely and attentive.

Very good food. Here for a work dinner.

Local, local cuisine. First class. Daily changing menu!

Amazing (but...)🔥🥰🫢 Lokal is a very cool & cozy place where you can feel good and eat very well!❤️‍🔥🤗😍 Everything is amazing and there is a really nice list of wines (and cocktails)... 💥but "relax and arm yourself with a lot of patience"... of the 5 appetizers, 3 were finished (and it wasn't the end of the evening) even the entrecote was finished and the service is still let's say "unripe"😊... That said, I personally recommend it because you eat deliciously and you feel just super fine! (and it could also be that it was a bad evening...).💕💕🌞

Very nice place. Good food and social and knowledgeable staff.

We celebrated our anniversary dinner here, and it was absolutely delightful! The food was exceptional, with a fantastic selection of natural wines that perfectly complemented the meal. The service staff were attentive and courteous, adding to the overall wonderful experience. The restaurant itself is cozy and intimate, making it an ideal spot for a romantic date night. We will definitely be returning!

The meat is cooked perfectly, but the combination with the side dishes is not always successful. The wild boar was perfect in combination with the melon. Veal with oysters sound good, but instead of oysters you could also use sea salt. And the radish should be cooked and not half raw. There was no dessert. The service is very friendly and takes great care of the many guests.

Service is outstanding. Food and menu is good. Still there is room to improve and getting a bit finer in taste.

Ate here on the recommendation of a friend of a friend. The restaurant is tucked down a quiet side street. The service was friendly and welcoming. The menu was small, but the food was excellent as was the wine recommendation from the waiter. A great place to eat.

Good rest of Berlin It is in an area where only bicycles circulate so it is super quiet The food is very well prepared with seasonal products. The waiters are very attentive and jovial.

Food was flawless, staff is friendly and the wine is nice. What's not to like?

Phenomenal. Went in not knowing what to expect, since the menu changes regularly and were absolutely blown away. We had the chicken + scallops and the pasta of the day. Both were equally as flavourful and fresh as hell. This has to be the easiest recommendation I've given for a restaurant in Berlin and sincerely doubt I'll ever regret it, if they keep it up!!

It is fashionable and has a lot of Berlin atmosphere; The food is not good considering how basic German restaurants are, they change the menu daily and use a lot of seasonal vegetables, they get overwhelmed when they are full

The food was creative and super delicious! We were there with 25 people, which wasn't a problem for the service. Super relaxed, friendly and well organized.

Top quality of the entire menu. Unusual but ingenious combinations of ingredients. Unfortunately very, very loud.

I cannot recommend this place enough. The service staff are incredible and the food is unforgettable.

Great food, service and atmosphere. Fair pricing. Will be back

Great food? Checked ✅ Great staff? Checked ✅ Great wine selection? Checked ✅ Will I come back? Ohh yes!!!!

The service was great! Enjoy the food and it’s amazing that the menu changes every day. Great ambience to enjoy good modern European food!

Very tasty food in a great atmosphere

The food was wonderful, the ingredients and flavors are on point. The space on the right side (facing the bar) is a bit cramped and very hot and stuffy (even when outside is chilly). I would suggest you ask for a table on the left side of the restaurant. The service is a bit slow and cold, but not to a point is unpleasant. We ordered sparkling water, duck breast, mackerel, veal schnitzel, cheesecake, rhubarb, tap beer and cider. It was about €102 and they did tell us we can tip them up front (which is fairly common here as per our experience), but it’s always a bit awkward to tell them the exact amount you are tipping 😅 Overall, we enjoyed the food very much and would recommend this place!

I had an amazing dinner here with work colleagues and was delighted to find multiple vegetarian options. Beautiful space and wonderful wine list, I’ll be sure to return whenever I am in Berlin!

It is at a corner of a building, super packed with locals and some tourists. Dim with warm light for a diner. Served authentic German food with their signature - Cheese cake which I remembered. One again, you can tell the style of the food with the waiters. They are all hip, responsive looking. Worth visiting.

Overly complicated plating made for a mushy meal . My glass was always empty. I experience bad stomach cramps not long after eating. My complaint was met with, “It must have been something you ate yesterday.” I was not impressed.

Great contemporary farm or whatever to table cooking. Excellent meal and an interesting, in a good way Menu.

Fantastic evening spent here. Small, cosy but buzzy restaurant so would recommend booking. Menu changes daily and the ingredients are all fresh and everything we had was delicious. The staff are friendly and my husband found another wine lover in Matt and so we got to try some great local wine that we otherwise wouldn't have known about. All in all a really fun evening in what felt like a local restaurant. Can definitely recommend.

Very good service, sensational food and a good wine selection!

We had a fantastic evening here. Relaxed modern environment with a menu that changes daily. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Matt looked after us extremely well and was very interested/knowledgeable in wine - which was the icing on the cake. Would go back in a heartbeat. Oh - and the food is delicious - lots of fresh flavours and beautifully presented. Definitely recommend eating here - good idea to book though as it’s quite small.

Amazing combination of flavors and textures. Loved the White Bean and Beet dishes. And the cheesecake was heavenly. The hosts are very kind and overall there are great vibes.

The food was light and fresh that was pleasantly unexpected! I loved the way the vegetables were prepared and enjoyed every bite! Looking forward to dining here again soon!! 😍

Wonderful surprise to have a beautiful, tasty and well thought out meal in the form of several small dishes. Yellow beet was particularly good. (Larger mains also an option of course!) Very good value too. The waitress was quite attentive and friendly. We tasted two white wines both flavoured. Recommend & would like to return. Thx.

We had an excellent meal and the atmosphere was great. We would definitely come back again. Thank you.

Very good food, great wine and friendly staff

Amazing amazing food. Best meat I've had in a long time and great attentive service.

Orgasmic ribs today. A pleasure for years. Familiar and ordinary, extraordinary. The people make the difference.

Fun, hidden gem. Service is amazing. Food is delicious and seasonal. Soup - 4/5 Fish - 5/5 Cheesecake - 4/5 Very old school restaurant vibes. Service was great. Menu was interesting. Food was good.

There were live parasite larvae in the fish. After we called the waitress, they immediately removed the plate to throw the fish away, even though we asked them to at least take a photo so that a doctor can identify the parasite later. Terrible experience! The parasite was still moving around in the fish. Absolutely disgusting! I will never enter this restaurant again.

DANGER!!! PARASITES IN FISH!!! I recommended this restaurant to my partner after having had a nice experience there before. So he took his mother there for dinner last night, and this morning I get a text from him saying that they found a live parasite squirming in the fish she ordered. Absolutely disgusting, these people have no clue what they are doing and are endangering their guests. Their restaurant needs to be shut down!!!!!!!

It was fine. Not a fine restaurant, it’s rather lokal food and cozy vibe restaurant. We liked some food, the combination between ingredients were interesting but not balanced super well. Im not saying it bad but not the top level. I could recommend to my friends this place.

Was a good place... Interesting food and good preparation. Nothing jumped out at me that drive me to the fifth star though but a good choice nonetheless.

Excellent. Particularly. Yummy.

Lovely little spot that is clearly for locals. All food is sourced locally. Yes there is a theme emerging. Reservations are a must. Food was thoughtful, specific & elevated. My cod dish was cooked to perfection! The cheesecake is famous - absolutely treat yourself to one of these. I’m salivating just thinking about it. Service is swift, professional & friendly.

Cozy and warm place. The service was welcoming and friendly (we came without reservation on saturday evening). The food was average (tenderloin 37e and coalfish 27e). Not bad not very good. Tenderloin missed salt. We accidentally ordered extra sides, since we thought that meat/fish does not include sides😁

The restaurant had been on our list for a long time and so we were really looking forward to the evening. The room is very nicely furnished, but acoustically difficult, it gets very loud. My partner and I basically had to carefully yell at each other. The menu is varied and the plates are beautifully presented. The quality of the food is very good, we just found everything (except the deer) to be surprisingly bland. Given the prices and the appearance of the dishes, we definitely expected more. The cheesecake at the end was the right choice, it was really excellent! All in all: worth a visit, but that's it.

Poor service - doesn't know the wine list (at all) or the menu. Amateur only. Fish was raw… accidentally(starter) and meat (beef rib) dry. The gratin was also... dry Red wine carafed… no, poured into water carafe. We sat uncomfortably right at the checkout. But it was a better choice than directly at the door. Just cheesecake, delicious.

We were here for a business dinner as a large group. As we arrived, the staff was quick to take our drink orders and made us feel very welcomed. The drink, rhubarb spritz was very unique in its taste (different to Aperol) and therefore I would recommend it to Spritz lovers!! The bread in combination with the beetroot dip was absolutely delicious. The appetisers, especially the potato gratin, were also sensational. The Gratin was one of the best ones I ever had as the potatoes were tender and well coated in the cream. The “Schnitzel“ was crunchy and very delicious, however I thought the sides with the Schnitzel were a bit too hard(especially the cauliflower). Nonetheless, the other dishes including the duck and fish were absolutely delicious. All ingredients used for the dishes seemed very fresh, hence the name „Lokal“. The dessert (apple crumble and cheesecake) were also very tasty. My personal favourite was the cheesecake with the berry sauce on the side. Moreover, the staff was very friendly and took their time when taking our orders and were quick to bring out everything smoothly. Additionally, some of us only spoke English. However the waitresses were fluent in both German and English, making it very easy for us to communicate. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone that enjoys a more „high-class“ German dinner with fresh ingredients as the dishes were absolutely delicious and unique. Definitely a great spot in Berlin!!

The restaurant Lokal hosted us couple of weeks ago for a big group dinner (30+) and we had a lovely evening. I must underline that the service was particularly friendly and very professional - which is not always the case with such big groups. The food also was very good, and the atmosphere of the restaurant very cozy. I would definitely recommend it to friends and family!

Top quality and local ingredients.

The most beautiful place for the evening. Thank you!

Visit on Friday, January 5th, 2024 for four. German cuisine creative and at a high level. Small, regularly changing menu. Cheesecake exceptionally delicious. Comfortably furnished. Very nice service. Very well attended, be sure to reserve! No double seating! Unfortunately, some dishes were only served lukewarm. It was very crowded that evening, maybe that was the reason. The starter I ordered was supposed to be with potato, but instead it came with dumpling. Since I don't like dumplings that much, I didn't think this was that good. Some of the seating is very tight. All in all, I can recommend the restaurant!

Recommended to me by a colleague, it was a revelation. Typical German haute cuisine, excellent prices, courtesy of the staff. If you want a high-quality restaurant in the center of Berlin, this is the place you are looking for. Absolutely recommended!

Wow this place is stunning every time . We had a great meal with boar mushrooms and other high quality products. We had a great time at the lokal.

Great food you can't say more. Very courteous service, good advice and, although the restaurant was very full, service was very quick. It was a bit loud, but that was due to the day: New Year's Eve! Still lots of customers.

So gut gegessen, so gut getrunken, so viele nette Menschen… Perfekt 👌 Please visit - Perfect

Perfectly prepared local dishes in a cosy and friendly atmosphere. Everything we had tasted great: a clear emphasis on the flavour of every single element. The cheesecake was particularly outstanding. Service was also impeccable.

It’s a nice restaurant, I didn’t like the food at all, at least my dish, which was expensive also, no doubt about the service because they were very friendly, other than the atmosphere is fine. Three stars because the friendliness of the staff

Wasn't planning on leaving a review but after being cornered, gaslit over my refusal to pay a tip on my bill of 150 eu and reading other reviews regarding tipping. I feel it is my duty to warn others. We had a reservation there were no additional remarks made about the reservation, concerning a table or a bar seat. When we arrived on time. We where left a the door in our coats. The restaurant was overbooked and staff was clearly working hard to catch up. We waited patiently opened the door for other guests, greeted them with a smile (we where having fun with our predicament). After 30 minutes we where seated at the bar, finally take our coats off, sit down and hastily look at the menu as the kitchen would close within 30 minutes. We orderd and they asked if we wanted to move to a table (we where not thinking about this particular remark in the moment but it will come back at the end). We were seated at our table, the wait staff was doing good enough with the volume of guests the manager aloud to he seated that night. But it was clear they where all under pressure. The amount of bumping bottles and plates into things on our table made is apparent they did not have the mental space to do there tasks mindful was noticable. We are pretty sure they took a way our bottle of wine before is was completely empty for instance. The food was nice but not great and not prepared perfectly for the price we paid. At the and they asked us if we wanted cheesecake as a dessert with himberen. In the end it contained raw apple, let that just be one of the things I'm allergic to and not mentioned when the dish was explained to us. We let that one slide as we noticed on time. But all together it was just a bit of a let down. When I paid the bill the waitress asked if I wanted to leave a tip I said "no", she ask "why", I then gave a general explanation. She already started to protest a bit. That felt a bit awkward. But when I got up to leave the restaurant. The waiters stopped me to tell me (after she spoke to here manager) that we where never meant to be seated at a table and we should have been grateful to be switched from the bar to a table. That last little ambush in the middle of the restaurant really was one of the most inhospitable things happen to me at a higher end restaurant. I don't think this is everyone's experience but this was ours, do with that information as you wish.

Kleine aber großartige, kreative Karte! Essen war super und dazu gab es eine passende Weinempfehlung! Wir hatten einen tollen Abend!

This restaurant is nothing special not worth going… The bread for starters is very old and hard. The main course of rabbit was extremely salty (as if they accidentally threw in half a pot of salt). We called in advance to make a reservation however, when we arrived we had to wait at the door for half an hour before we were seated… when we researched this looked like a good place to go to. But here comes the worst: when we were asked if we would be able to leave an additional tip after paying for the dinner, they cornered us because they did not appreciate us deciding not to. They wanted our feedback, we gave it to them and then they were trying to go into a discussion. when we tried to leave the restaurant after just paying for our food, the waiter stopped us again to start trying to argue on the fact we did not want to pay any tip. Mind you, we already paid the bill, said it was fine and just wanted to leave to our next appointment . It felt unprofessional and disrespectful. DON’T go here, there’s plenty of other places in Berlin where people will be treated with hospitality and respect especially for these prices.. bad service, very arrogant waiter, badly spiced and flavoured food. Never going here again.

In visita a Berlino,siamo stati invitati dai nostri consuoceri( mio figlio vive e lavora in città ed è fidanzato con una ragazza di origine svizzera/ tedesca)in questo bel localino con cucina tedesca.molto buono tutto ma i dolci superlativi..due ragazze in sala italiane,laureate!

mein absolutes Lieblings-Restaurant in Berlin!

such a cozy lovely place perfect for chill Friday nights in fall :) homey place and such nice and friendly staff. Asked for recommendation for wine and got perfect advice. Food was really great: the combinations, amount and also the way it was cooked - super delicious. Perfect for a date night or special occasion.

Recently in Berlin from London and had an incredible meal at Lokal! They were so accommodating as they were operating a fully booked night they let me sit and order the full menu from the bar. The entire staff was 10/10 and the Veal Chop was one of the best I have had. Highly recommend if you are visiting Berlin! Thanks, Maz!

Service is suppi, Ambiente genauso. Das Essen kann sehr lecker sein aber man muss sich ein bisschen in die häufig wechselnde Karte reinfuchsen und ein paarmal hingehen um aufs Konzept klarzukommen. Preise sind ein bisschen happig aber nicht ungewöhnlich hoch für Mitte.

Lovely restaurant in Berlin. Friendly staff, there was an English-translated menu and our server spoke to us in English since my mom and I didn’t speak German very well. We enjoyed every dish we ordered, but the name of the dishes escape me. In total for 2, we spent about €80-90 for 1 appetizer, 2 entrees, and 1 cheesecake dessert Portions are perhaps smaller than what Americans might be used to, but the focus felt more in the taste and texture.

Wonderful food and friendly service. Interesting salads including artichoke and celeriac. Bilingual menu and wait staff.

One of the best food and beverage experiences I’ve had in Berlin! The food is well portioned and cooked exceptionally. The flavours are smart and appealing and the drinks are matched well. The real magic here is the staff. We started as a table of 5 and turned into 10 (which we hated) but the staff went out of their way to create space and still deliver impeccable service. The atmosphere is relaxed and ‘local’ while being classy and smart. Such a gem to discover and should be a hit list on everyone’s lists of where to eat in this city! DANKE

Lovely spot in the heart of Berlin serving some German style food, although to be honest for me as a Berliner we never had this type of good food growing up ;) but they take local ingredients &dishes and just make them more delicious. This was my first time going here and will definitely come back when I'm back in town! I had the lamb chop and it was amazing 😍

אוכל יומרני, לא טעים ויקר. שירות ועיצוב מקסימים

cooles „In“-Lokal mit lokalen und internationalen Insidern. Wer einen Platz innen bekommt, will gar nicht mehr weg. Einrichtung mit Holz (Tisch und Stuhl) und viel weiß, gemütliches Licht, Stimmengewirr, Unterhaltung ist hier wohl Zweck aller Gäste. Das Essen ist teils ungewohnt und mutig in der Kombination, aber - wer auch immer dort kocht, versteht sein Handwerk! Optisch ansprechend, geschmacklich fein nuanciert, alles hat den rechten Biß - da gibt es nichts zu beanstanden. Kleine Karte, aber absolut gut aufgestellt. Es ist ein Lokal - bei Wein eher weniger Auswahl, aber absolut Ok. Das gezapfte Bier paßt. Alles in allem: für jedes Alter, besonders in der Stimmung für ein (auch kontemplatives) Gespräch unbedingt zu empfehlen

Abysmal food and confused service was there to celebrate my girlfriend‘s birthday and I have to say this was one of the biggest disappointment I had in Berlin. I heard really good stuff prior to my visit but all was shattered. The food looked nice but was horrible in taste. I couldn’t taste anything in both my starter (the veal heart)?and the main course (the roasted duck). I returned my main dish after having one spoon of it. My girlfriend had the pasta which was so thick and barely cooked! Just awful mix of ingredients that don’t fit together. Never again!!!

Great service. Lighting is mid. A dish, labelled in capital letters "PASTA" (€19), had a ratio of 9 apple chunks to 11 pieces of overcooked pappardelle. 81% apple. Intense. Was gonna give the food 2 stars cause I felt a little bad about writing this vaguely petty review, until I remembered the server looked me in the eyes and said "some people like it" and that "it wasn't Italian pasta but German pasta..." My dear, the entire nation of Italy agrees. -1 star for thinking I am insane. Mushy apple pie vibes aside, I left and made a fire cacio e pepe and brought balance to the Force.

Food is uninspired and totally overpriced for its quality, staff is friendly. Quite disappointed overall.

Heard good things about this place, love that the menu changes as they select seasonal produce and cook up a storm with it. Unfortunately the dishes they created on the night we visited just didn’t work. It felt like an episode of ‘Ready, Steady, Cook’ where a bag of random ingredients is dropped on a counter and the chef has to make something up on the spot. Each individual element of each dish was cooked well but the combinations of elements was not just odd, it was at times unpleasant. Maybe it was just an off night but disappointing.

I wanted to like it. I really did but food was edible at best and disgusting at worse. Menu constantly changes and I guess for this week the dishes were just no good. Maybe it's just for the german palate but both flavors and textures were just off. How this made the top lists of popular websites is beyond me.

Great location with cool food from regional products. It is not top notch but worth its price. Good wine menu and easy going service. Thanks a lot!

Innovatives Restaurant, Portionen könnten etwas größer sein.

Super teuer . 52 Euro für ein Abendessen

Amazing service. Amazing food. Matt and Maren were great hosts. Will definitely be back if we are in Berlin

casual fine dine mit Fokus auf deutscher Küche. Speisenauswahl ist spannend & angenehm überschaubar. Zusammenstellung wirkt erfrischend. Wir hatten sehr viel Spaß uns durch 2 Vor- und 4 Hauptspeisen mit Kartoffelgratin als side dish zu testen. Bis auf den Seeteufel (unspannend in der Zubereitung) und den Krustenbraten (ziemlich trocken) war alles lecker und handwerklich & geschmacklich rund. Insbesondere das Spanferkel als Appetizer, sowie das Rinderfilet waren die Favoriten! Auch wochentags ist Reservierung empfohlen. Der Laden war voll! Atmosphärisch toll - intim, modern und vor allem ungezwungen und unkompliziert. Kartenzahlung mit Split Payment kein Problem! Service crew sympathisch und aufmerksam!

The main course didn’t arrive at all and the explanation (something convoluted about cutlery) didn’t make a great deal of sense. When it finally arrived, it was frankly mediocre. The food was fine but overall it was a disappointing experience. Nice wine.

Wow. Talk about dashed expectations. I have had this restaurant on my list since June 2022 and on my 3rd Berlin trip finally had the opportunity to go. I'm not sure if they hate out of towners, but this was terrible. The venison was inedible, the other dishes - tomato with a weird purple sauce; veal heart; beef tenderloin were mediocre af. Also they were out of multiple wines. Worst meal out of 4 trips to Berlin. Do not recommend. Go anywhere else.

Pricey but delicious. They also have options for vegetarians :)

I had dinner in this restaurant two days ago. The food, even though the menu being expensive and a bit pretentious, was good despite some errors (I had asked for a rare steak and it was served overcooked). The worst part however was the bill: we were mocked by the waitress because the tip was considered too low. I understand that leaving a generous tip is a local custom, but the waitress shouldn't judge or be ironic, also because she doesn't know my story and my financial resources. I have never felt so humiliated in my life. I advise you not to go to this restaurant. There is plenty of choice in Berlin and there are many places where customers are treated with respect and gratitude.

This restaurant was recommended in many of my usual online sources. It is a seasonal restaurant that changes their menu regularly based on availability of ingredients. Overall, I would say this is above-average dining with interesting flavor combinations, but I wasn't absolutely blown away. 1. Chicken & Merguez (pea, carrot, asparagus, shiitake, elderberry caper) 2. Rosefish (cabbage turnip, gooseberry, buttermilk, coriander) 3. Pea & cucumber soup (cress) 4. Pulled pork & scallop (bell pepper, pear, leek, bread) 5. Veal tongue (potato, radish, marjoram) 6. Codfish (broccoli, beans, melon) 7. Lamb top round (chanterelle mushroom, fennel, cucumber, blackberry) 8. Beef tenderloin (beets, bell pepper, sour cherry, marjoram) 9. Blueberry (yoghurt, granola) 10. Cheesecake (mirabelle plum, lavender)

Excellent fresh food with unique flavors. Our server Christian was personable, attentive, and very polite. We loved him as well as this exquisite restaurant! Get the cheesecake

terrible service and average food.. i came here with my business partner. upon arriving nobody took the time to take us to our table, had to wait several minutes. once seated, we had to wait 20 mins to get the menu. unacceptable for the price. food was simply average and the vegetarian options were very limited. never again

On a recent trip to Berlin, we have eaten here twice and are looking forward to a third visit. Superb modern restaurant with excellent food and service in a lovely ambience- all at a surprisingly affordable price. The food is very well conceived and cooked, with a range of very delicate flavors. As an example, the lamb shoulder I had last night was amongst the best I’ve ever tasted, with that proper distinctive taste of lamb that seems so hard to achieve. Service is thoughtful and intelligent (and helpfully bilingual). While the restaurant has many hard surfaces, it never got noisy and we could chat easily.

Quaint, local, cozy. Food: lamb should over salted, but well cooked. Fish was patchy in terms of seasoning. Dessert: pear was severely undercooked, cheesecake was phenomenal. As a local i would say visit but stick to the vegetarian dishes. As a tourist i would say skip this place, not worth it if you have limited time/budget in Berlin.

The menu is quite eclectic and expensive. Went here with a group of four friends and none of the dishes really stood out.

Das Essen war perfekt. Die Gerichte waren super lecker, kreativ, regional und saisonal. Zudem sympathischer Service; kleine, gut abgestimmte Karte; vorab ein Gruß aus der Küche und feine Drinks.

The place honours its name by being very lokal! It feels that you’re in Berlin without the tourism around. The wine list is amazing, the food excellent presentation, flavour, textures! The waiter was a little distant at the beginning, but once we were having all the food and wine, he got much better! The indoor dining room looks amazing! Happy to go back!
