SOLAR Sky-Bar Restaurant Lounge in Berlin

Cool bar with a great atmosphere, delicious drinks, and fair prices. The doorman is very friendly, and the service is attentive and quick. All around, it's a pleasant experience. Unfortunately, the smoking lounge has been removed, which is truly antisocial.

Truly the bar in Berlin with the most beautiful view, the best drinks, and super-friendly staff both at the door and in the bar itself. But whatever happened to the Solar? I always had to go downstairs in the cold to smoke. 🥺

Great team (Nick), fantastic food. We'll be back again and again. Absolutely recommended 😍😍😍

Luxurious and exclusive – Even at the entrance, the doorman ensures exclusivity with a stylish selection. Inside: sophisticated design, professional hospitality, and an ambiance of the highest standard. A true highlight in Berlin. Always happy to return.

I was here for a networking event and did not have food. We were very crowded in the space, but it had a great vibe and amazing views. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Tip top - clear recommendation 👍🏻🤩

Best place in Berlin. Leider wird die Bedienung mittlerweile sehr berlinerisch.

A very beautiful, breathtaking venue with a first-class atmosphere. The DJ played such beautiful music, and a few pretty girls in glittery dresses danced. The service and the gin were also excellent. We'll be back – thank you very much.

Beautiful food, service and setting. A lovely night out in Berlin.

That was one of the nicest meals I’ve had in my travels in Europe and that’s saying something. Stunning food with. Stunning a view.

You can't smoke anymore. What a pity!!!

The atmosphere is nice the drink is normal but the price is overrated which I guess it’s because of the view that you have over Berlin ✨ worth it to visit once n then decide if it’s your favourite place or not 🥰

It is a well trodden trope that restaurants with great views are complacent with their food, wowing diners with what is out the window, rather than what is on the plate. Solar isn’t one of those places. When we arrived, the security checked our booking, and sent us on our way up the elevator to the restaurant with a view. It is a cool space, and Berlin unfolds out of the large windows. We got there early, so saw the sunset, and watched the city light up as the evening progressed. Our evening started simply with a few drinks, the house Winzersekt Solar Rosé - was easy, crisp and light. I got a “Glorious Bastard” cocktail that was fun to order and drink. The food menu here is all about sharing. For starters we began with delicate tartlets and the croquettes. We paired these with a Riesling from Stahl, which was fresh and precise. The Warsteiner beer I also enjoyed. For mains, the Cordon Bleu, the Spanferkel (suckling pig) was tender and the crackling was satisfying. The half lobster was simply done and we enjoyed it. Each main was well portioned, well seasoned and plated with enough style, without being over thought. You have to get sides to complete the experience, and we went with the: buttery mashed potatoes, honeyed baby carrots, and the cauliflower. Each paired well with the mains and we left nothing for the kitchen to clear off the plates. We were sat next to a couple who got the Wagyu, and I asked them if they thought it was worth the cost, they said it was and was the best steak they’d ever had, they and all those around us were enjoying their experiences and sent their plates back empty and left happy. There were couples on dates, groups celebrating birthdays, and families catching up. People were coming here to celebrate, sharing a meal with people they love, and wanting a special night out in a special location. When I first arrived I was worried it was going to be mediocre and pretentious - but they avoid this well, and have made Solar into something delightful. The views will impress you, the food will comfort you, and the drinks and wine list are well considered. As evening progressed, we grabbed a last few photos of the city. On the elevator ride we left content, riding the elevator down to the wander back to the hotel glad we had found Solar, and made some memories there.

Unfortunately, the panoramic elevator was broken and therefore unusable. This, among other things, deducted one star for the ambiance. The food was excellent, not to mention a masterpiece. The service was top-notch, although, as is often the case, we didn't see it again after dessert and coffee. But throughout the entire evening, the staff were very attentive, present, and super friendly! We'll be back! Thank you for a wonderful evening!

Worst service we've ever had. The staff were extremely slow and disinterested. The view was nice, but getting a seat by the window was impossible. We ordered snacks, and after 20 minutes, nothing had arrived. We asked again, and after two seconds, we were handed a pre-packaged bag of chips. We don't need to talk about the doorman; he was very creepy. Unfortunately, we won't be back.

We visited solar yesterday. Our friends have been here a few times, and it was our first time. To sum it up: the visit was an experience! First, the location on the 16th/17th floor with a sensational view of the city. Then the food: we enjoyed the Summer Share menu, which was a flavor explosion, especially the vegan pulled pork! We paired it with a cocktail, wine, and sparkling wine. Everything was absolutely delicious. And to top it off, the extremely friendly and attentive service. We enjoyed the evening at solar to the fullest!

Really very good and nice staff. Interesting menu in an interesting place. Recommended

Great service, best food, super views, we'll be back!

Great restaurant, great food Cool, delicious drinks Great people Very professional receptionist (thanks Malik) Highly recommended, always happy to go back

Delicious food, nice service – absolutely recommended!

Amazing views, great drinks and good service. 100% recommended

Hip, busy, reservations are a MUST, but that's okay. The food was TOP-NOTCH.

Very cool view. Good drinks, but very, very expensive.

Food was good but overpriced: 3 mini starters the size of a chocolate candy, €16. Side dishes were extra, but way too expensive: a couple of fries for €7. Dessert: ice cream on a lolly, any Magnum was better. The worst part, though, was the unfriendly service. As a Berliner, you're used to a lot. But when the waiter gives you a stern, almost devastating look because you want to keep your menu so you can maybe order something else, no words are said. His snippy attitude made every attempt to call for service an adventure. We'd been there 15 and 10 years ago. This was our last time. With this level of service, it's only a matter of time before they close too.

My colleagues and I had an amazing dinner tonight. We enjoyed the wonderful hospitality and the views. Being from Amsterdam, friendliness and hospitality is not something I just expect. It was a perfect evening with beautiful presented food which surprised my taste buds. I haven't enjoyed a dinner this much in a very, very long time. Compliments and thank you to the chefs and the serving staff.

⸻ A true culinary experience. Each course was a small work of art – finely balanced in flavor, creatively presented, and prepared with palpable passion. The dishes were explained with heart and knowledge, and the service was attentive, warm, and yet pleasantly unobtrusive. I felt not just a guest, but a valued part of a special evening. A place where enjoyment and hospitality come together at the highest level. Thank you so much for the wonderful evening.

Loved the place! The service was amazing. The chill-out music and overall atmosphere made the food taste like heaven! The traditional suckling pork knuckle, cordon bleu, and tartlets were all fantastic, but the mashed potatoes with raclette cheese were truly out of this world. Add a note on your reservation to request a table by the window - it's a great way to enhance your Berlin experience!

Very nice ambiance with a magnificent view over Berlin. We had the duck menu, and I highly recommend it. Simply perfect. The service is exceptional and very attentive. The bar upstairs is also a great place to relax. Absolutely recommend it, I'll be back 👌

The food is amazing and i can only recommend to go there and try the ceviche for example. One of the best in the city. But .. the door guy downstairs was so unfriendly, arrogant and aggressive that I doubt I will go again.

Very tasty, nice presentation, good food. Funnily enough both my table and table next to us wondered why the “snack plate” for two was accounted twice… the waiter just laughed and said that it was a bit ambiguously written in the menu… There were some little ambiguous things in the menu, but other than, great ☺️

This place is truly something special. If you find the hidden entrance, you can take a glass elevator and see Berlin from above. The restaurant is rustic but still tastefully decorated. The service that evening was true to Berlin. It was quite flippant, or rather, slightly condescending, but not rude. The selection of dishes and the combinations were very good. There were three of us, so we were able to enjoy three completely different meals. The presentation was different than usual. The quality of the food was very good. Unfortunately, the preparation was not. It was very salty/seasoned. When we noticed this at the end, we were simply informed that the chef likes to use a bit more spice. The club is directly above the restaurant.

We absolutely loved it. We had the half lobster and the medium Black Angus beef fillet, along with mashed potatoes, carrots, and scallops. Everything was perfectly prepared. The service was also excellent and gave us excellent advice. We'll be back!

Great location with first-class service. The view is impressive. We had a wonderful evening and would love to come back.

The ambiance and view are sensational. The food is excellent, and the service is friendly and very attentive. Breathtaking views

Here, we were treated to an unforgettable evening filled with incredible culinary delights. All the delicacies were tastefully coordinated with great sensitivity and attention to detail. The excellent service left nothing to be desired. Many thanks to the kitchen and the waitresses!

The food was very good, and the service was very friendly and competent. Highly recommended; we'll definitely be back.

It was a wonderful evening, super delicious food, and very friendly, attentive service! A beautiful view from up here! The food is GREAT! That's Berlin! Thank you so much!

We had the surprise menu with cheese for dessert for €70 per person plus drinks. The appetizers were delicious. The cheese platter at the end was also good and plentiful. The main course would have been delicious (boiled beef with various side dishes), but it was far too salty. We were told it was simply cooked with a kick. There's nothing wrong with kicking it with various spices and heat! Too salty is unhealthy, though. I'm much more tolerant than my wife, but it was too salty for me too. The service manager would do well to accept and pass on criticism instead of trying to argue it away. So, only a tentative recommendation.

A super nice rooftop restaurant. The menu offers a wide range of options (meat, vegan, and vegetarian). The food is really good and beautifully presented. The steak wasn't my favorite, but otherwise everything was really great. The view of the TV tower and Berlin is also truly outstanding.

Good views. Food quality not up to par for the prices. If you go sit on the second floor casual bar for better views.

Very nice, the view and the food are also surprisingly delicious

Stunning experience at Solar Bar in Berlin! The rooftop view is absolutely breathtaking — perfect for watching the sunset. Cocktails were creative and expertly crafted, while the staff struck the perfect balance between attentive and relaxed. Chic atmosphere without feeling pretentious. Ideal for an intimate date night or a casual evening out with friends. Can’t wait to return!

Very good food, the view was very nice, and a very GOOD service thx @Denise. The place you have to go when you visit Berlin.

Not worth the incredible price. I don't understand why this place is so booked. The food was delicious, but the prices are completely ridiculous (sorry!).

Solar has a very special value for me, not only culinary but also emotionally. The food is a dream… creative, sophisticated, and full of flavor. The ambiance is stylish yet cozy, and the view is simply magical. A place to enjoy, pause, and reminisce. My absolute favorite restaurant

A true highlight above the rooftops of Berlin! The bar was pleasantly busy, the DJ created the perfect atmosphere, and the cocktails were consistently excellent. The view is spectacular – especially at sunset. A little extra: the comfortable swing seat adds a special charm to the whole experience. A clear recommendation for a stylish evening with great drinks!

Nice place , service by Denise was great

The place was lovely and the wine was amazing. Big thanks to Denisse for her kindness and warm smile!

If you like a nice ambiance and bad cocktails, this is the place for you. The cocktails taste bland and like Metro quality or Getränke Preuss. Unfortunately, cocktail requests aren't accommodated, or are met with a resounding "no." With this ambiance and prices, no guest ever wants to hear "no." I assume the staff is paid fairly, so please make an effort and not just do your job by the book. Drinking an €18 cocktail from plastic straws is a bit like eating at a cheap Mexican restaurant. What's the problem with buying 500 glass straws and then cleaning them? It's a shame that you have to spend so much money on poor quality here. Apparently, they gradually lost sight of the "wow factor" and then accepted and tolerated it as a negative.

The food was amazing! We had wonderful service from Marie, Jan & Björn. The staff is extremely nice. Amazing cocktails from Juan. Get the Jess in Wonderland, it’s the best :)! Thanks so much!

Great shop with a fantastic view over Berlin!

Yes, a very nice location, not cheap but also recommended for visitors to Berlin

Hello dear Solar Team, Last night my husband and I redeemed our prize: a Berliner Morgenpost menu at your restaurant. We would like to thank you very much for the delicious menu. It was simply fantastic! Everything was just perfect, from the explanations of the food and the accompanying wine. We can only praise your staff; they were very friendly and always had a smile on their faces. THANKS AGAIN! KEEP UP THE GOOD THING!

What an evening! The food at Solar Berlin was simply incredible—a true taste experience unlike anything I've ever had before. Each course was a perfect blend of creativity, quality, and surprising flavors. Thank you so much 💞🌸

Incredible views, really nice cocktails and gin and tonics. The waitress was really nice and lovely! My friends enjoyed it so much. If I come to Berlin again, I'll definitely come back!

The food at Solar was exceptional — every dish was bursting with flavour and beautifully presented. The chef is truly talented, and the staff went above and beyond to make our evening special.

Beautiful view and the best food, service also very nice

Really great place, with a super panorama, delicious cocktails

A beautiful restaurant up in the clouds of Berlin. Delicious food and a wide range of delights to choose from. The service is friendly and helpful. On the 17th floor is the bar with a DJ booth. Enjoy a cocktail or two here while you watch the sunset.

If you want to eat and see Berlin, this is the place. The food is simply the best on the 16th floor. I would come again and again.

Simply perfect! The food was fantastic, the service attentive and warm, and the view was breathtaking. Absolutely recommended!

Super friendly staff, fantastic food.

Restaurant on the 17th floor, beautiful views of Berlin, great atmosphere, nice service, unconventional dishes, can surprise with taste. I highly recommend.

Great tips, thank you. Cool view

Great view, attractive, friendly staff. Prices a bit high, which was a shame. The music could be livelier. All in all, worth a visit!

Very good restaurant with great view, excellent service and excellent food

The food was overall great. The view is amazing and the cocktails are really good as well.

Great food, good service.... No soy conditioning. When it was 36C outside it was unbearable in there. They have fans that don't hit the seats as they are too high up and not angled down. Everything else was good, it'd be great in winter

We recently went to Solar with friends and family. We've rarely had such a lovely evening and felt so comfortable. Service was very attentive, the dishes were an experience, and the drinks were creative. Even our two vegans were delighted.

A somewhat pricey restaurant, but the food, service, and especially the view justify the price. 😁

The food was good and tasty, the service friendly, but completely overwhelmed by the packed restaurant, the noise deafening, and it was hot and stuffy (it was after 8 p.m. - how about a working air conditioning?!). Despite the great view, it's not enough for me to come back.

We went for the Morgenpost menu and were quite satisfied. Except for the meat. It was a bit overcooked.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at the Solar Sky-Bar Restaurant Lounge in Berlin, on my vacation and highly recommend! The service was exceptional, with staff members Mali and Gianni going above and beyond; their attentiveness and genuine friendliness was a highlight. The food was delicious! The menu offered sophistication and variety with many different options of dishes. The ambiance of the lounge is classic with stunning views of the city, the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal or a drink. The DJ was spot on with the music variety and played some of our requests. If you're traveling to Berlin, make sure to add Solar to your itinerary. It's a fantastic place to enjoy great food and exceptional service in a beautiful setting. And if you see Mali and Gianni give them a special greeting!

It was truly an incredible experience. We go to a new restaurant every week. Most of them are Michelin-starred restaurants. So, we have a certain level of culinary expertise. The ambiance, the food, and the service (Jens) were exceptionally good. I'd love to come back and recommend a visit to everyone.

We went to the Solar last night for the Morgenpost menu. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The food is significantly better than at the Adlon, the service is professional and relaxed, and the view of the sunset over Berlin is heavenly.

We had the Morgenpost menu. Each of the five courses was a delight, right down to the espresso, with wonderful flavors and a very well-chosen wine pairing. Excellent service, and the view is something special. The background music got a bit too loud at times.

Warm recommendation for the wonderful morning post menu!

There are 2 floors. Upstairs is more like a bar but we were shown to a table there for dinner. And it wasn't a nice experience. Avoid

We were attracted by the Morgenpost menu at this restaurant. It worked very well here. The service was quick and very attentive. Thank you very much. The food and drinks were perfectly reasonable for the price, with no real highlights. Some of the dishes were a bit salty or had an overly greasy taste. The view was fantastic, especially during a nightcap in the bar on the top floor.

The Solar Bar impresses with exotic cocktails and a breathtaking view over Berlin's rooftops – definitely an experience to remember! The bartender was very attentive and friendly – ​​a real highlight of the evening. The general table service, however, could have been a bit more attentive, but this was more than compensated for by the bar service. The prices are on the higher side: we paid around €70 for four cocktails and two additional drinks. All in all: A stylish place for special evenings – not cheap, but worth a visit.

Finding it wasn't exactly easy (down an alley past Lidl). The view is truly beautiful (even more so for a sunset), the place is beautifully decorated, the service impeccable, and the food delicious! Like everywhere in Berlin, vegan dishes are on the menu!

I was here with a large business group last evening. We have a very nice 5 course meal that was fantastic! The presentation of each dish was excellent, and our waiter was top-notch. The interior could really use a big makeover, though. While the view is spectacular, the windows on both the inside and out need a really good cleaning for full appreciation.

This was our third time trying the Morgenpost menu, and each time we were pleasantly surprised. Of course, the view over Berlin is stunning. But for us, it's more important that the food and service match the view. We'd be happy to return.

Rui prepared our drinks. They were amazing! And he was really friendly and kind. Thank you, I will visit Solar again!

Nice high-rise location. A bit pricey but it's worth it.

The view over Berlin's rooftops is, of course, phenomenal, and one you don't often get in Berlin with such a pleasant ambiance. The service varies greatly in its interactions with guests, sometimes polite and accommodating, but also arrogant and ignorant. The price/performance ratio is not entirely commensurate with the quality of the dishes. The cauliflower was drowned in too much hollandaise sauce, the tartar lacked flavor, and the fish was a bit dry and simply too small for the price; it didn't deliver a burst of flavor. Of course, taste is subjective, but there's a certain incompleteness that permeates the dishes.

Wow, this view alone makes up for it. We went at night. Nice cocktails.

The bar has a great atmosphere...cool DJ booth (which can move up and down between two floors).. Mixed crowd...cool drinks that are admittedly on the higher end of the price scale...I'd love to come back.

Great atmosphere, great view, really great and attentive service from Jens!!

One of the best Morgenpost menus we've had so far. It would have been perfect if the amazing potato bread had been served as standard. Great service, good wines. Unfortunately, it's quite loud when it's full. But a real discovery; I probably would never have found this hidden restaurant without the menu. The view from above is great for Berlin guests.

Thank you for the wonderful evening! We will definitely be back! Excellent food & service, and the wine paired perfectly with each course!

The entrance is a bit hidden, and a doorman has to open the door for you. Then you take the glass elevator up. It's a cool place with a great view of the entire city. Prompt service and good drinks. We were there with our teenage children at 6 p.m. just for a drink (you can also get food). We all enjoyed it.

This was one of the best experiences I have had in Berlin so far. The food was amazing, atmosphere was amazing and the service was also top notch. ' Mr. Loris ' who was serving us was the coolest guy, we ordered the chef's special menu where I wanted vegetarian and my partner wanted the normal with meat. Mr. Loris made this happen for us and every course had atleast 5 different items and every item was a bust of flavors in the mouth. This was the best vegetarian food I've had in Germany till now, that too with all these varieties. The cherry on top was that the whole staff came singing happy birthday for my partner with the cutest most delicious cake ever and the whole restaurant sang along , this was a very special moment for my partner. Thanks a lot to the Solar team for making my partner's birthday so beautiful. P.s. we went at 8:30 pm in the summer, this way we were able to see the view in sunset and in the dark. This view of Berlin is the prettiest.

Something different Highly recommended

I was last there about 20 years ago and wanted to present a special perspective of Berlin to my visitors from another city. It worked out perfectly; the ambiance is truly something special. But we were both positively surprised by the food and the excellent service! It wasn't cheap, but definitely worth the money. Fine cuisine, but with generous portions. To finish off, we had a delicious schnitzel. The service was particularly outstanding; we received truly friendly service. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

System to share isn't for everyone, but we loved it. Thanks for the lovely evening.

DJ was super! Great good and awesome service.

Returned after many years. Unique view. Good drinks.

Super nice sky bar! Great vibe and beautiful view.

A wonderful, breathtaking view, friendly staff, and delicious treats. Highly recommended!
