Dachgarten Restaurant

Style:

More:
The Cafe/Restaurant on the top of the Reichstag

Reviews:
Tirsomal writes that "It is a very modern bar/restaurant although it is not easy to find as it is not very well indicated. We were there in January, so the terrace was closed. If you go in the summer I bet they have tables outside.

If you are planning to visit the Reichstag, you must go there for a drink! :)"

Booking this restaurant is also a good way to avoid standing in the queue for the Reichstag.

The Basics:
Platz der Republik, 10557, Berlin-Mitte (U/S Hauptbahnhof)

Renger Patzsch

Style:
Franco-German

More:
The new name of the former "Storch" restaurant

Reviews:
Out of Town Local says it was the best meal they've had in Berlin, and writes: "We made our way to the restaurant but it was under a new name. Renger-Patzsch had taken over Storch but was still serving the same type of food. The space was contemporary with old world touches and lots of original artwork and photographs. [...] We started with a Kir and then shared two appetizers. We had the house special Flammenküche which is a broiled tart with smoked ham, cheese, and onion and a roasted quail with pumpkin risotto.

Reinhard's

Style:
German, Local (Berlin) Cuisine

More:

Reviews:
Fodor's recommends this place: "Friends meet here in the Nikolaiviertel to enjoy the carefully prepared entrées and to sample spirits from the amply stocked bar, all served by friendly, tie-wearing waiters. The honey-glazed breast of duck, Adlon, is one of its specialties. There's a nice outdoor area for dining."

Ron Telesky

Style:
Pizza, Canadian (?!) style

More:

Reviews:
This is considered to be one of the best pizza places in Berlin, or at least in Kreuzberg. The pizza is different from the basic Italian pizza, but is not as thick as American pizzas. It is a very small place, and in the winter, consider this (plus the fact that reservations seem out of the question): you might have to take your pizza with you or eat it outside.

The Canadian Press is all the rage. We liked it, but did not see it as heavenly.

Rikes Gasthaus (Rike's Restaurant)

Style:
Berlin Cuisine, German

More:
The restaurant claims to apply recipes from old cookbooks, reviving the old Berlin cuisine, and is appropriately located at a hotel called "Alt Berlin" (Old Berlin); allegedly recipes left to Rike by her grandmother

Reviews:
"Mediterranean Girl" writes in her travel journal, "the food was delicious. [...] traditional Wiener Schnitzel [...] which came with a huge salad and lots of oniony, pan-fried potatoes. It was huge – it absolutely covered my plate and it was very tasty. My partner ordered a traditional pot-roast of beef that was served with a rich gravy, mountains of vegetables and heaps of oniony, pan-fried potatoes. He really enjoyed it and I saw what the waiter meant about a starter being too much. The dessert menu was rather simple. [...] The atmosphere was rather cosy. [...] t appeared to be a place couples would go rather than large groups of people or families with young children. " Menus are available in English.

The Basics: Potsdamer Str. 67, 10785 Berlin-Tiergarten (U Kurfuerstenstrasse)
