Rutz in Berlin

Pas digne d'un restaurant trois macarons. Assiette niveau un macaron et service / salle niveau deux macarons (et encore) Si je reprends le menu imposé du soir: Re-hydrated tomato & redwood tree - tomate sans intérêt mais bouillon remarquable Oyster & green strawberry - très bon Baked fish & Dill - très sympa MAGNOLIA & YELLOWTAIL MACKEREL, rhubarb - je n'ai pas aimé du tout BEETROOT & HORSERADISH, sumac - bon LEEKS, ONIONS & POTATO, pepperweed - bon GARDEN PEAS & ASPARAGUS, chicken skin - je n'ai pas particulièrement aimé WILD GARLIC, BUNTES BENTHEIMER & Koji - je n'ai pas particulièrement aimé WAGYU & GARUM, Kohlrabi - exceptionnel, seul plat vraiment à la hauteur du diner DRY AGED LAMB & BUN, BEANS - pas mal Truffle & buckwheat - frais et sympa FENNEL & VERBENA, clementine - je n'ai pas aimé du tout Knotweed & rose - je n'ai pas aimé du tout Aucune mignardise: ce n'est pas admissible dans un trois macarons Michelin (surtout après des desserts techniques plus que goumands)

Rutz is very good; but it isn't good enough. There's no denying the attention paid to service, sustainability, the quality of ingredients, and the creativity of their preparation. You'll likely see dishes here either completely new or reminiscent of other 3-star Michelin restaurants in Europe, and much effort is paid to keeping the list of ingredients short, simple, and rustic. Unfortunately, Rutz has passed the threshold of what haute cuisine can reasonably cost. The menu and wine tasting, even if you don't go for the add ons, surpasses 500€ per person; things as simple as still water get tacked on for an additional 25€. While the dishes at Rutz were tasty, and the effort in their culinary efforts is second to none, even those who enjoy exploring fine dining can't justify this kind of expense anymore. The service (solid, but not exceptional; multiple waters and the sommelier spoke varying fluencies of English) and atmosphere (quiet and spacious, but wholly uninspired from a decor standpoint, no different than any local fine restaurant) fail to make a case for why Rutz should continue to demand such a high price. Even if you're a person to whom money is no object in the pursuit of excellent food, you'd likely leave Rutz feeling as I did; impressed, satiated, but thoroughly unconvinced of its reputation.

A formidable experience: the lamb was out of this world, the pork chin was excellent. Very relaxed and competent service as well as excellent drinks accompaniment. Great overall culinary package.

We bezochten Rutz in Berlijn (3 Michelinsterren) tijdens het Paasweekend 2025. De ontvangst en service waren goed, de sfeer oké, al voelde de totale uitstraling wat zakelijk en afstandelijk. Wat betreft het eten: voor een driesterrenzaak teleurstellend. De balans in smaken was vaak niet in orde – meerdere gerechten waren veel te zout, terwijl andere juist veel te zuur waren. Qua opbouw en presentatie ontbrak het aan spanning of innovatie. Elk gerecht bestond uit één element met een los geserveerde saus. In vergelijking met andere sterrenzaken die we eerder bezochten, bleef dit duidelijk achter. De prijs ligt uitzonderlijk hoog. Dat wisten we vooraf, maar juist daardoor ligt de lat ook aanzienlijk hoger. Bij deze prijsklasse verwacht je bijzondere ingrediënten of uitgesproken technieken, maar die ontbraken grotendeels. In een stad als Berlijn zijn genoeg alternatieven waar je voor minder geld culinair meer verrast wordt.

A wonderfully successful evening

Geld mag vieles regieren, aber es kauft weder Stil noch Anstand. Ein 3-Sterne-Restaurant steht für höchste Kochkunst, erstklassigen Service und eine besondere Atmosphäre. Wer dorthin geht, sollte nicht nur Respekt vor dem Essen, sondern auch vor der Arbeit der Köche und des Personals haben. Kurze Hosen und Badelatschen zerstören genau diese Atmosphäre. Fine Dining ist nicht nur eine Frage des Geschmacks, sondern auch des Erlebnisses. Wer in Jogginghose oder Strandoutfit auftaucht, zeigt, dass ihm dieses Erlebnis egal ist – und das ist respektlos gegenüber allen anderen Gästen, die sich bewusst für dieses Ambiente entschieden haben. Stil und Anstand bedeuten nicht, dass man im Anzug speisen muss, aber ein gewisses Maß an Gepflegtheit sollte selbstverständlich sein. Geld allein macht keinen Gentleman – das zeigt sich in Haltung, Respekt und Benehmen. Herrn Müller ist das egal, jeder sei willkommen , es könnte sich ja hinter jedem noch so „ lässigen Outfit“ ein potenzieller CIO oder höheres verbergen. Geld regiert eben doch die Welt!

It was a very special experience. Everything was right. I came to the restaurant feeling disheartened and grumpy and left a happy person after a wonderful meal with a good wine. Thanks also and especially to the service team.Thank you

Spectacular experience in a world of flavors in a class of its own. The service and wine recommendations are in no way inferior. Thank you for this extremely successful evening.

Thank you, everything went great 😊👍

It's a very nice shop, I can only recommend it.

It was a great evening, the staff was very friendly and everything was perfect

We visited Rutz for the first time at the end of January. An all-round successful evening. The very well-trained service was always friendly and warm. We didn't take part in the wine accompaniment, but we were recommended a wonderful wine by the sommelier Sebastian. The menu was truly excellent with every plate. Creativity paired with a closeness to nature was a wonderful surprise on every plate. Despite the high level of the “Rutz”, there is a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere. If you want to experience an unforgettable evening, you should definitely go to the “Rutz”. We would like to thank the entire team for the fabulous evening.

Extraordinary and Enormous. Everything was right. I can't say more.

“Love for nature meets food culture,” writes Rutz. We can sign that. Warm hospitality (special thanks to Falco Mühlichen) paired with a menu that really inspired and the perfect wine pairing made this evening something special. Thanks to the entire team for this fantastic performance.

Food creative and surprising but always tasty. Best restaurant experience in my life so far. Staff friendly and fascinated by the food they serve. Only minus was the atmosphere, there are no barriers like plants or so between tables, that felt a little less comfortable. Also the chairs were not ultra convenient. Overall highly recommended!

Great! A birthday party took place here and all the dishes were uniquely delicious! Thanks to the thoughtful, friendly staff and the kitchen! It was an experience!!!

I have never been so disappointed with a Michelin star restaurant and I weigh my words carefully. So much so that I waited almost 4 years to lose my temper and write this comment. We came to celebrate a birthday. We were offered glasses of a second rate sparkling wine as an aperitif for which we were charged an exorbitant price. The service was unworthy of a restaurant of this standing, neither the welcome, nor the absurd explanations (name the lobster langoustine in English, when we ask for explanations about the garum for example the waiter shows us a photo of a siphon, did the waiter understand English? etc...) The dishes were just as disappointing, no or few noble products, at this price, who are we kidding? The pinnacle was a barely cooked pork dish, a signature dish... but why??? Soulless food and wine pairing. My experience was traumatic, since then I no longer trust the Michelin rating in Germany. I would like to end on something positive... I'm still looking...

The six-course Berlin Size menu with beverage accompaniment surpasses anything we have experienced in terms of gastronomy. Exciting dishes offered taste explosions that can hardly be put into words. The extremely attentive service increases the enjoyment through precise explanations of the dishes and wines. The greetings from the kitchen make the Berlin Size menu de facto a ten-course menu that is so filling that in the end we were glad we didn't order more courses. Even if the fun isn't cheap, you have to say: the price-performance ratio is good, also because there are no surprising additional costs. We left the restaurant feeling very grateful!

Die Enttäuschung begann bereits beim Entree, bei der Musik. Nervig südamerikanisch, irritierend nah an der Hörschwelle dahinscheppernd. Stimmungskiller. Das Ambiente achtlos und sehr öde. Kahl und sachlich kann gut sein, siehe Cookies Cream, im Rutz sieht’s aber eher aus wie in einer Kantine. Man bräuchte einen guten Innengestalter. Je voller der Laden, desto lauter wurde es, was eine Unterhaltung manchmal anstrengend machte. Wir mögen Sternerestaurants mit mehr Abstand zu den Nachbartischen, denn Platz bedeutet auch Luxus. Deutlich die Gespräche der Geschäftsleute nebenan mitzuhören, ist es nicht. Wir hatten das 8-Gang-Veggie-Menü gewählt, ohne Weinbegleitung, was schon für hochgezogene Augenbrauen sorgte. Die Grüße aus der Küche waren spannend und versprachen Hervorragendes. Dann allerdings ging es eher weniger spektakulär weiter. Kreativ ist die Küche zweifellos. Für’s Auge wird was geboten, Küche mit der Pinzette eben. Aber wir vermissten das geschmacklich Besondere, Außergewöhnliche. Besonders ärgerlich empfanden wir das „Trüffel“-Upgrade eines Ganges. Ein Gericht mit ein paar Scheiben schwarzer Wintertrüffel, die wenig Eigengeschmack hatten – für 49 Euro extra. Das „Pflaumen & Kernöl“-Dessert war einer der Höhepunkte, ebenso wie der abschließende Gruß aus der Küche „Herbstprinz & Grüner Wacholder“. Der Service war von Anfang an aufmerksam und recht professionell. Wir wollten zwei besonders interessante Gläser Wein vom Sommelier. Der eine war es tatsächlich, der andere irgendwie beliebig. Wir diskutierten auf dem Nachhauseweg darüber, ob wir einfach zu ungeübt sind in der Bewertung einer 3-Sterne-Küche (Das Rutz war erst unsere 2. Erfahrung), aber im Ergebnis zählt doch, ob man begeistert aus einem Restaurant kommt. Das 2-Sterne Restaurant der Woche davor hatte für uns einen Maßstab gesetzt, den das Rutz deutlich nicht (mehr?) erreichte. Unsere Rechnung belief sich – ohne Trinkgeld – auf 890 €.

Very exquisite, very very good compositions and variety of tastes of the extraordinarily creative combinations of the individual dishes and drink accompaniments.

The Rutz is a gourmet restaurant in a class of its own. The works of art that Marco Müller and his team celebrate for his guests serve all sins equally. He uses pretty much all the ingredients that the local flora and fauna have to offer. The whole thing is accompanied by a charming and friendly staff who are always present without being intrusive. All in all, the perfect ambience for a magical evening that you would like to repeat. On that note, see you soon.

Relaxed, casual and excellent cuisine

A culinary experience in a class of its own! The Rutz lived up to its excellent reputation in every respect. Each course was a perfect composition of flavors, textures and visual presentation - true works of art on the plate. The service was at the highest level: attentive, competent and yet pleasantly unobtrusive. The ambience of the restaurant creates the perfect setting for this exceptional dining experience. The three Michelin stars are more than deserved. A special evening that will be remembered - we will be back!

Great service. Staff absolutely impeccable. Very good wine pairing, great wines selected. Anti-alcolic drinks are also very imaginative. Unfortunately the food doesn't have enough WOW effects, with 3 stars.

Had an absolutely great New Year's Eve dinner there. Beforehand, a tour of the restaurant and introduction to the kitchen members. Then a really stunning menu with explanations of the individual courses. The best culinary experience I've had so far.

Very disappointed with the whole experience .. understaffed , snd over rated restaurant .. food was served very delayed.. spoiling the appetite.. did not offer any meaningful apology when we complained. Very inconsiderate, they even served my birthday cake while my boy friend was in the toilet .. they spoiled the surprise.. very shocking and disappointing .. on top of that, over priced !! My recommendation is to AVOID.

Service and food was top notch as expected from a 3 star Michelin; however, there was no AC and it was hot

My girlfriend (now fiancé thanks to the wonderful evening at Rutz) and I had a very nice experience here! The food, service and wine pairing are perfect! We thank you for a wonderful evening and will definitely come back!

Das beste, was wir bisher erleben konnten. Nachhaltig aufgebaute Küche, lokale Zutaten, noch nie gehörte, geschweige denn probierte Geschmacksvariationen, eingebettet in perfekten Service rund um Gastgeber Falco Mühlichen und perfekt abgestimmte Weinempfehlungen.

A dream. Everything perfect, but still relaxed. Thank you

The flavors of each food was perfect and Ruts is difference between the whole Michelin restaurant I’ve gone there and This was the best dining experience. Absolutely if I travel again to Berlin, I will come there and suggested to my friends

Nice fine dining experience, the only 3-star in Berlin. They have a very local menu based around mostly ingredients from the region. I've seen that in some restaurants in Germany and Austria and it feels risky as you kind of expect to get premium ingredients at this price range. However, they pull this off pretty nicely, so I can recommend it. The menu had plenty of fish, which was all around great. And the meat was also really good. In general the mixture of textures was noticeably good. Place is nice, albeit I would expect a bit more space for a 3-star. The staff is attentive and professional, overall a nice experience.

We enjoyed the 6-course Berlin dinner menu. Creative dishes and pleasant surprises throughout the evening. Great drink pairing with both wine and non-alcoholic offerings. A very enjoyable experience!

As a guest of the Rutz restaurant in Berlin, I can confidently say that my visit there was unforgettable. From the moment you enter the elegantly decorated interior to the highest level of service - everything here makes you feel special. The menu is a composition of masterful dishes, prepared with the utmost care and attention to the smallest details. The dishes are not only beautifully presented, but also incredibly tasty, bringing your taste buds to true ecstasy. The service is perfect - every waiter is professional, polite and knows everything about wines and dishes. The wine list is impressive, offering a wide selection of excellent bottles that pair perfectly with the dishes. The atmosphere at Rutz is elegant, but at the same time pleasant and casual, which makes the time spent here pass very quickly. This is a perfect place for a romantic dinner, a business meeting or a special occasion. A visit to the Rutz restaurant is not just a meal, it is a real culinary experience that stays in your memory for a long time and leaves an indelible impression. It is worth visiting this place and enjoying the unique taste and atmosphere.

We visited the restaurant in August 2023. It was indeed a unique experience. All the dishes were delicious and very beautiful in appearance. We enjoyed an explosion of flavors on our palate. The staff polite and helpful. Well done to the chef and his team. Keep it up. I hope we have the opportunity to enjoy your creations again.

Rutz takes such a different approach to food from other Michelin places, all in Bavaria, that I have been to on my current trip to Germany. They say that they are into preserving food and being sustainable. One of my waiters also told me that the kitchen is not into making anything sweet. The techniques that they use on their food are quite interesting, and that leads to a somewhat unique dining experience. For example, the usual table-side saucing is replaced by table-side sprinkling of freeze-dried sauce droplets. The flavors of each element in their dishes seem to be intense on their own, but are quite harmonious when experienced together. The food is borderline ingenious vs self serving. My favorite of the menu were the bitter salad and the kohlrabi. The caviar can be skipped; even though, the Berlin royal caviar is quite different from the Thomas Keller one that I am used to in California. Oh, and they served cat fish... Service is top notch. Ambience is quite interesting with a display of jars which are full of preserved ingredients. Tableware has this earthen tone that intends to give out a more sustainability and demure vibes.

Everything was great, highly recommend wine pairing

What an absolute treat to eat at this restaurant, that is, without a doubt, a culinary experience. Everything on the menu is part of a well thought out journey through nature. The plating, the ingredients, and the wine pairing created one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. Not to mention the service while we were there! The waiters we are extremely friendly, the sommelier, Klemet, was excellent and answered all of our questions. We asked to see the kitchen, and they allowed us to enjoy a course at the counter in front of the kitchen to watch the chefs at work. We also received a birthday cake surprise at the end. Overall, this restaurant is well deserving of the 3 stars it has received. If you have the opportunity to dine here, you will be more than pleased with the effort that the staff at Rutz provides you. My only regret is eating everything before I could take a picture of it.

Llevaba a mi madre para celebrar su jubilación, su primera experiencia en un restaurante de tres estrellas Michelin. La comida es espectacular. El sabor y la presentación del plato estaban en nariz. Los problemas que tuve que enfrentar fueron con el servicio - cosas que nunca he experimentado en otros restaurantes de tres estrellas de primer nivel. Algunos de ellos son errores inexcusables. Me fui muy decepcionado. En primer lugar, nuestro servidor nos dijo que tenemos una prueba antes del vertido, así que pensamos que esto se aplica a todas nuestras bebidas en lugar de solo los vinos. Cuando nos dieron nuestro primer maridaje no alcohólico, no había instrucciones de que este es el par real y no un sabor, también el plato llegó unos 10 - 15 minutos después, así que lo bebimos. La sirvienta que trajo el plato estaba confundida porque no vio el maridaje en nuestra mesa y tuvo que preguntarnos si ya habíamos probado el bagre. Le dijimos que pensamos que era una degustación para ver si nos gustaba la bebida, así que ella amablemente había ido a preguntar a la somm si podemos tener una recarga con nuestro plato. El somm había dado instrucciones a nuestro servidor que podíamos obtener una recarga solo si queríamos pagar extra. Por supuesto que sabía muy bien, el costo de hacer el jugo de verduras es insignificante en comparación con el vino. En segundo lugar, cuando queríamos usar el baño, nos pidieron que esperáramos hasta después del plato principal, ya que iba a llegar pronto. El servicio debe funcionar alrededor del huésped, no al revés. En tercer lugar, me di cuenta de que recibí la factura ERRÓNEA - era más de lo que se supone que debo pagar. Le he dado esta opinión exacta al restaurante cuando me enviaron un correo electrónico por ello. Ha pasado más de una semana y aún no he recibido ninguna respuesta. Este es otro ejemplo más de la falta de servicio.

Der Besuch im Rutz (***) war in jeglicher Hinsicht absolut außergewöhnlich. Außergewöhnlich spannend, weil ich wohl noch nie in einem derart hochklassigen Restaurant gegessen habe, das eine so ausgeprägte Philosophie hat und auch lebt. Außergewöhnlich köstlich, weil trotzdem jedes Gericht einfach extrem gut schmeckt und oft Erinnerungen an Geschmacksbilder z. B. aus der Kindheit liefert. Und außergewöhnlich sympathisch, weil man sich direkt gut aufgehoben fühlt in diesem wunderschönen Restaurant, bei Küchenchef Marco Müller, der uns einen Gang direkt bei der Küche präsentierte und auch erklärte, und beim Serviceteam um Restaurantleiter Falco. Vielen Dank für diesen fantastischen Abend!

My first visit to Rutz. When I was greeted I was asked if I wanted to use the toilet before being taken to the table - wearing… Toilet: “No AfD stickers” - political statements in the 3-star restaurant, is that necessary? The volume and acoustics in the guest room on the 1st floor were rather strenuous You can clearly hear the explanation of each dish at the surrounding tables, which is both acoustically tiring and rather annoying at the same time. Stylish interesting restaurant. Neighboring guest was talking on the phone at the table and eating at the same time...it's shocking how ignorant and badly behaved many people are these days. Bitter lettuce and yellow beets - a wonderful taste experience Butter with fennel and anise - a wonderful combination! Apparently the boss doesn't greet all guests, only selected tables are greeted... not bad, but strange... Pepper herb - very exciting...a plant that is processed very interestingly here and is probably spreading widely along federal roads and motorways. Pastured chicken with umami - very awesome! Red deer calf interpreted in a summery way, light and flowery - a poem! However, perhaps a venison fillet would have been seasonal and the meat consistency more appropriate. When I mentioned the suggestion, I had the feeling that you were very confident in yourself / it could also be a misinterpretation on my part. Plum seed oil and milk cream topping - very complicated and incredibly summery! Unfortunately, I was no longer offered wine with dessert - I would have been very interested in the recommendation! Overall, a successful evening with delicious food.

"Liebe zur Natur trifft auf Esskultur" schreibt das Rutz auf seiner Seite. Das können wir mit unterschreiben. Herzliche Gastfreundschaft (besonderen Dank an Falco Mühlichen) gepaart mit einem Menü das wirklich inspiriert hat und der perfekten Weinbegleitung haben diesen Abend zu etwas besonderem gemacht. Danke an das gesamte Team für diese grandiose Performance.

Here is where your taste buds go to have a wild party. The menu is like a rollercoaster of flavors that’ll have you questioning why you ever settled for mundane meals. Each dish is a little masterpiece, and the wine list? Let’s just say it’s not for the faint of heart. The ambiance is refined but far from stuffy—perfect for showing off without feeling like you’re in a snobby food critic’s dream. If you leave without a satisfied grin and a new favorite wine, you’re probably doing it wrong.

Fine dining at the highest level in a casual, focused atmosphere. Precise creations with aromatic density, strong textures and great presentations. Clearer 3*

Wir gehen vornehmlich in Michelin Restaurants und waren immer begeistert,hier leider nicht, der Besuch war enttäuschend.Wir hatten das 6 Gang Berlin Menü mit Weinbegleitung. die Weine waren hervorragend, die Appetizer waren toll und brachten die Spannung auf die restlichen Gerichte und die waren leider allesamt mittelmäßig, alle mit Soßen überlastet, es fehlte der ursprüngliche Geschmack der eigentlichen Lebensmittel, die Soßen kippten alles zu, zu jedem Gericht, einschließlich der Nachspeise eine kräftige Soße. Als Fisch gab es Waller, der geschmacklich nicht erkennbar war, da er mit einer starken Pfeffersoße ertränkt wurde, man brauchte eine halbe Flasche Wasser, um den scharfen geschmack zu löschen. Das Lamm war wirklich daneben, oben lag eine kalte Wattauster und darüber 3 kalte Bohnen, das passte wirklich nicht, dazu war die Fleischqualität des Lamms mittelmäßig, da hatte ich schon besseres gegessen. Die Nachspeise war eigentlich geschmacklos. Schade um den schönen Abend, wir hatten besseres erhofft.

So let’s start with the experience, was super nice and the guy who was taking care of us (maybe manager) was amazing compared to the rest that while they were serving us the plates we couldn’t understand sometimes what we eat. The wine pairing was incredible, and the girl who was describing everything regarding the wine. As we have visited other places with Michelin star around the world , I can’t say that it was unforgettable. But the whole experience was perfect.

Inspiring and very tasty dishes in their new ambience paired with flawless service made a perfect dinner. I have nothing to suggest they could do better. I fully recommend.

Excellent!!! We had so much delicious food and the wine paring was terrific. Thank you to all the staff, they were warm and clearly loved working with the exquisite food. We will be back when we visit next. Thank you!!

Really good restaurant with 5 star service - I can recommend the menu which has a very nice wine included

TL;DR: Disappointing. The menu is called an "inspirations menu", but at least for me, each dish at best had components that hit that note, never the whole dish. Whole evening was heavy on fermented things, so if you like that, your mileage will vary. The only two things out of the whole menu and non-alcoholic pairing _I_ would pay to have again are the blood sausage bread roll, and the citrus-y drink somewhere in the middle of the menu. I want to make it very clear that this is based on a specific menu, specific taste (mine), and specific day. 3-star restaurants should be - according to Michelin - "worthy of a trip in itself". For me, if I lived near there, for that kind of money (~500 EUR, without tip), I would rather eat really nice Ramen at Takumi NINE 100m across the street nearly every day of the month (depending on the Ramen it's 1/20 - ~1/30 of the price). Also, they ran into one of my personal pet peeves: if you do lay out straight edge knives, _do_ make sure they are sharp! The one I had at least was not. Yes, I know it's difficult, because depending on the care of the customer (and your tableware) you basically have to sharpen those things every other day. I would rather have micro-serrations, than a dull straight edge. Atmosphere & other patrons were okay, mostly nice & quiet, except for the Russian person on the phone two tables down from me. 🤷🏻 Servers/Hosts were professionaly friendly and seemed to enjoy their job. Twice however, they did arrive prematurely to clear the dish - while I was still chewing on the last bite. Unfortunately for the review of this restaurant I have eaten at a _very_ good 2-star restaurant in the last month (Dede in Ireland), and - at least for me - they win in about every metric I care about. So probably I should be mostly disappointed in Michelin for setting high expectations, but apparently having very different standards in Germany vs Ireland. All in all, I had an okay meal, I did finish every dish, some parts were quite interesting, but considering this is a 3-star Michelin restaurant (and somewhat expensive), that can not have been the goal. I left disappointed and had a chocolate Franzbrötchen at home to pick me up (thanks for coming to Berlin, Bäckerei Junge). To end on a positive note, if you think fine dining is all small portions & foams, at least there were no foams to be had this evening.

An experience in a class of its own. The simple/elegant ambience met my taste exactly. The service was competent and professional and made working fun. The food played a perfectly coordinated symphony with my taste buds. The wine recommendation rounded off the evening perfectly.

Dining at this three Michelin star restaurant was an unforgettable experience. It was indeed very expensive, but for us worth every penny. The service was impeccable, with incredible attention to detail. The sommelier was fantastic, enhancing our dining experience with expertly chosen wines. The food was outstanding—each dish was not only delicious but also had a remarkable texture, showing the chefs' dedication to the textural experience of each meal. The restaurant's focus on local products was evident and added to the overall quality. While the price is significant, the exceptional service and exquisite food made it a night to never forget.

Simply fantastic, this was the best dining experience I’ve had. The food was light and fresh, the flavours were excellent and the many different cooking techniques were perfectly executed. The service staff were super attentive and the wine pairing was amazing. The service was tight but not impersonal. I have only one word to describe the experience, impeccable.

“Love for nature meets food culture,” writes Rutz on its website. We can sign that. Warm hospitality (special thanks to Falco Mühlichen) paired with a menu that really inspired and the perfect wine pairing made this evening something special. Thanks to the entire team for this fantastic performance.

After living in Berlin for 10 years I finally made it to Rutz and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. I won’t write a paragraph about the food, although I could: it was just outstanding, both aesthetically beautiful and very tasty. I’d like to mention non-alcoholic pairings because it’s not a very common thing to be offered and my friend who couldn’t drink alcohol enjoyed these a lot and didn’t feel left out at all. Also a special thanks to Falco for being such a great host and assisting us with the dog accommodation.

In short: top restaurant and great service. Thank you for the lovely and enjoyable evening

Yes, great. Just amazing. We had a really nice evening and felt completely comfortable. The variations in food were also great, very unusual but super tasty. The wine accompaniment and the non-alcoholic accompaniment were also very well coordinated and an experience.

Seit vielen Jahren frönen meine Gattin und meine Wenigkeit dem Genuss hochklassiger Cuisine. Nachdem wir dieses Jahr im In- und Ausland (Deutschland, Japan & Frankreich) schon in den Genuss von insgesamt sieben Drei-Sterne Restaurants kommen durften, verschlug es uns in der vergangenen Woche nach längerer Zeit einmal wieder in das Berliner Sternerestaurant Rutz. So leid es uns tut, dieses sagen zu müssen, es war das mit Abstand schlechteste Drei- und Zweisternerestaurant, welches wir in den letzten zwei Jahren in Deutschland erleben durften. Wo bitteschön war auch nur bei einem einzigen der acht konsumierten Gänge eine „geschmackliche Explosion“? An einem Nachbartisch, wo ebenfalls wie wir mitbekamen ein weiblicher Gast eine unzureichende Leistung höflich und nett anmerkte, wurde diesem zu unserem Erschrecken von Seiten des Restaurantleiters mit einer wahrhaftigen Ignoranz offeriert: „Wenn es Ihnen nicht gefällt, dann können wir ja gerne jetzt abbrechen“. Völlig erschrocken und in Tränen aufgelöst, nahm der Gast das Angebot an und verließ das Lokal. Ein unglaublicher und von uns noch nie zuvor beobachteter Vorfall. Vielleicht sollten sich die Betreiber des Rutz-Restaurant einmal vergegenwärtigen, dass die einmal geschehene Vergabe von drei Michelin-Sternen nicht ein lebenslanges Anrecht auf deren Besitz nach sich zieht. Ein ehemaliger Drei-Sternekoch in Saarbrücken kann seit 2021 ein Lied davon singen. Wir jedenfalls werden zukünftig das Sterne-Restaurant Rutz meiden.

When after 14 plates you can't say which one was the best because every single one sparked enthusiasm. Perfect service, also with genuine enthusiasm for the food. Rounded off by an excellent wine accompaniment. Thanks for a fantastic evening!!

Restaurant of the highest level. Above all praise.

I can’t praise Rutz enough. A definite three star experience, and definitely a green star experience as well. The service - on point. Friendly, helpful, chatty, flexible. The food perfectly encapsulates the spirit of Berlin - youthful, innovative, open, very modern but rooted in history. I loved the wine and juice pairings, as well. The new potatoes and marjoram amuse bouche was amazing. The flavours, aromas, textures, beverages flirted together so well, culminating in a perfect harmony in your mouth. Rutz and Marco Müller are doing a lot of things right. I would, no, I WILL, revisit.

We had a fantastic evening at Rutz. The food was inspiring, innovative and delicious. Fancy and tasty at the same time. The waiters were all extremely kind and made the visit perfect. The wine by glass is very favourable and the nonalcoholic beverages as well. I would love to revisit.

Indeed, a remarkable culinary experience. Local ingredients are artfully transformed into innovative dishes. The staff is both charming and knowledgeable, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. It is no wonder they have achieved their (proudly displayed) stars.

The worst experience in my life for a Michelin star Restaurant, don't deserve any star. The maitre was arrogant and did whatever he wanted. if he doesn't know what pescaterian means he shouldn't work at a restaurant he brought what he wanted and we couldn't eat anything because of our restrictions very bad and extremely expensive the worst restaurant the food the flavors disgusting.

Good. Really good. But if we had known what it was really like in the end - would we have booked? No.

The Rutz rightly deserves its stars. Our evening was absolutely successful. From the warm welcome to the friendly farewell, we experienced extremely professional service and cuisine that was at the highest level. Each dish was a masterful combination of different flavors, perfectly prepared and harmonious. The service was excellently trained and conveyed the kitchen's messages with exceptional competence. The sommelière impressed with her extensive wine knowledge and presented our selected wine perfectly. For connoisseurs of star cuisine, a visit to Rutz is a must. It was truly an exceptional culinary experience.

Exceptional cuisine paired with excellent service. The chef takes you into the world of fermentation. It was a great experience.

Simply fantastic - many thanks to the entire Rutz team for this fantastic experience and the top service as well as the asparagus caviar surprise 💯 It was great to be able to enjoy the carp ribs, which shortly before had been the undoing of Juan Amador and Lukas Mraz at Kitchen Impossible 🫢. We'll definitely be back

So something very special to eat in this restaurant, highly recommended

We recommend! Reservation is an advantage

My 5 star rating is hereby corrected. Recently you have been contacted to give 5-star reviews blindly and receive money in the form of cryptos. Don't worry, I have the entire chat history with this company as a screenshot 👍. According to this dubious company, the restaurant operator is the client for the ones I bought!! 5 star reviews. General: Don't let reviews fool you👍

It was a lovely evening and I would love to do it again

Delicious food, friendly service, prices OK.

Delicious food. Exactly my taste. Gladly again

Absolutely good restaurant fully satisfied!

Excellent collection of wine and liquor!

This was something else. We had one of the best dinners we have ever had. From the beginning to the end we truly had a 3 (michelin) star experience. Service was out of this world and of course the food aswell. The expertise with our someliere was superb. Menu was created with such a detail that will leave you speechles. Wine pairing was on point. Even though we all have different taste and i did not like all of the wines egually i could still find the connections between the food and wine. Truely a one of a kind experience and huge recommendations for Rutz.

Bad rhythm of serving the food - simply too slow. The food was passable but nothing remarkable for a 3 star.

Simply incredibly good in all areas, thank you for the fantastic variety of flavors in the kitchen, the incredible work done and the attentive service team!

Cozy location, feel-good factor with the team, the wines and of course the food… Wonderful and unforgettable evening - highly recommended.

Very nice atmosphere, delicious food and nice staff 🥰

Thank you for a relaxed first 3 stars and experience 🙏😊

We were there recently by chance and everything was excellent.

The food is simply indescribably delicious and a must for every lover of good cuisine. The service from the staff is at the highest level. The ambience visually sweetens the delicious food Overall, everything harmonizes with each other

Anyone who is in this area should stop by and be enchanted by the chefs and the conditions, an incredible orchestra of flavors, perfectly balanced with fresh ingredients. The ambience is contemporary and modern, the touch of risk and romance is always there. All in all I would even give it 6 stars.

Great restaurant, everything good, absolute recommendation. I'll be back

Very friendly staff with good food in a friendly atmosphere

It was a great experience there, the service was unique as was the dinner. I am very happy to give it 5 stars and can only recommend it.

The food tastes really good and the staff is very friendly

A lovely evening that sometimes drags on for a very long time. The food is delicious, not everything tastes good but that's a matter of taste ☺️ overall a successful evening but 2 people €917 is not without it

My visit to Restaurant Rutz was an unforgettable experience. From the first minute we were warmly welcomed and taken into a world of fantastic cuisine. The atmosphere is inviting and cozy, with a touch of elegance that provides the perfect setting for an exceptional meal. The creativity and skill of the chef is clearly visible when selecting the dishes. Each dish was a feast for the senses, presented in a visually appealing manner and with an explosion of flavor in every bite. The wine selection is impressive and the sommelier gave us excellent advice on choosing the right wine. The service was attentive, professional and friendly, which made the evening even more enjoyable. Overall, I can only warmly recommend Restaurant Rutz. It is a place where you can dine exquisitely and spend a wonderful evening in Berlin. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

Great restaurant, I enjoyed it. Gladly again, great team!!!

Beautiful ambience, friendly staff, the food is excellent and has a wide selection.

Very tasty food and TOP service, I can really recommend it! Price performance in the upper segment but absolutely justified!

A culinary taste experience. The presentation of the individual courses is impressive. The whole thing is completed by the excellent service. Thank you for the unforgettable evening

The Rutz is one of the best restaurants in Germany. Our expectations were fully met. What Marco does in the kitchen with his team is top drawer. The service from host Falko is relaxed, precise and perfect. This is rounded off by Nancy, the sommelier, who also sets standards in Germany.

Very tasty restaurant and very nice staff. All in one It fits together very well. It couldn't be nicer!

Wonderful experience. the waiters were incredible and the service was fantastic. everyone should try Rutz at least once in their lifetime.

Inventive cuisine, great flavors and great presentation. The wine list also invites you to try it and what would a great meal be without a fine wine. Gladly again!

Beautiful location, fine staff... Always happy
