Restaurant Tim Raue

Historic Mitte


Now here’s a double-Michelin-starred restaurant we can get our mind around. Unstuffy ambience and a stylishly reduced design with walnut and Vitra chairs perfectly juxtapose with Berlin-born Tim Raue’s brilliant Asian-inspired plates, which each shine the spotlight on a few choice ingredients. His interpretation of Peking duck is a perennial bestseller.

In 2017, the restaurant came in at 34 on the top 50 list of the world's best restaurants. The same year, Raue was featured in an episode of Chef's Table. The kitchen closes at 1.30pm for lunch service and 9pm for dinner. Book at least a couple of weeks in advance for dinner.
