Searching for good restaurants when international can be very, very difficult. As I soon found out, when I was looking for a place that was decently-nice, reasonable-priced, and light-on-the-ice (I don't know what that means either, I just wanted it to rhyme). Tip #1: Quaint, cute interior. It's nestled at the end of a little courtyard. Tip #2: Accepts online reservations, which is especially useful for foreign travelers like me with no cellular plan. Overall: Delicious food, good vibes. Reasonable fancy while still keeping a homey environment. read more

The restaurant itself is beautiful, cozy, and inviting. My server was attentive, friendly, and helpful with recommendations. The food was tasty, but the portions are among the smallest I've ever seen. I had the herb salad starter (fine) and slow roasted pork main (delicious but tiny portion served in a small dish alongside 2 cauliflower florets and a few crispy onions). (The pork main is meant to serve 2, but the waiter kindly allowed me to order a half portion since I was alone.) I had to scarf down all the bread because I was hungry by the end of the meal. The woman eating next to me also commented to her server about the small portion sizes. The prices are quite high (the small serving of pork was 22 EUR, the sparkling water was 6,20, etc.). Items ordered: gin and tonic, sparkling water, herb salad, slow roasted pork, americano. Total cost: approx. 45 EUR. read more

Went there for the second time and I doubt that I will come back for a full meal. The restaurant itself is beautiful and the cocktails are amazing. It's the food that kept me disappointed again. It is simply overpriced for what it is. The supposedly famous fries were just bland, and my 18 Euro cauliflower was a sad old veggie. We did not eat the meat as 2 people need to order it. It seems to me that the restaurant is not really for Berliners (I am one). We are used to mediocre food in restaurants, just not for those hefty prices. read more

So much has already been written. Loved the atmosphere, the friendliness and casual feeling associated with a tinge of luxury - when considering the wine list, which by the way is splendid. Its a different way to dine and works well for any occasion read more

Five stars for food, 4 for service. I recently traveled to Berlin on business. Whenever I do get the chance, I like to seek out the best local fares possible. The ones that are off the beaten path, serve not so standard food, and offer a little bit of ambiance I can't get anywhere else. Katz Orange offered all of those things. Before that I had a hard time finding any sort of restaurant I enjoyed that offered anything better than a decent currywurst. I reserved a table for two online but ran late in making my reservation after finishing up a city tour late. They let go of my reservation as guessed, but seemed to have plenty of open tables available. We asked the hostess if we could still get in, and they said they had availability at the bar, so we took it. I normally don't care about sitting at the bar to eat dinner, because hey! usually results in faster service. In this case scenario however, it mainly led to faster drink service than food as we waited a good 15 minutes before anyone came to us with menus before I decided to give in and just ask the bartender for help. We didn't the change to try the Katz Orange lamb as we hoped because they ran out, so it your wagon is hitched to that star make an earlier reservation than we did. We were however able to order the pulled short ribs and I found that I probably enjoyed that more. Do not pass on the sauce served with it. Other winners were the duck fat fries and my favorite of the meal was the hibiscus margarita, or which we both had to have two rounds. read more

One of the best meals we have had in Berlin. It started with cocktails from the specialty menu. The bartender was a Doctor of Mixology. He had sprays, sprigs, mists and a host of special recipes. Quite a treat to watch him work his magic. The meal was just delicious, The wives were able to have vegetarian dishes that were quite unique. My buddy and I split the lamb shoulder. It was so tender and sweet.! We ordered all the sides, which each one was better than the next. Can't rave enough about the Chef and his staff, Real talented wait staff and the vibe was outstanding. read more

Stunning location, beautiful crowd, good (good, not great) food and delicious cocktails.. You can't get wrong at Katz Orange. Very popular place so be sure to make a reservation in advance.. read more

I dropped on pretty late on a Saturday after the opera, expecting to be turned away for not having a reservation, but I was seated at the bar in less than 5 minutes and had an incredible night. The wine list and cocktail menu are top notch, the proteins are slow cooked and super tender, the vegetables and side are just impossibly well done. There was even a DJ spinning funk, soul, and Motown. I can't wait to go back. read more

Fantastic location for our final evening in Berlin. The 2nd floor dining room is the place to be. There were a lot of large groups but that did not detract at all from our enjoyment. Fantastic wine a suggestions from "my colleague who knows more about wine". A real neighborhood find for those looking to get out of the tourist traps. read more

Amazing atmosphere. We had the group meal and it was so much food. Fresh ingredients and amazing taste. Very much recommend.

Amazing location, the restaurant is set in a beautiful building that was once a brewery. The food is organic and there are some interesting combinations and fusions, otherwise mostly staple contemporary German food. The cocktails are great, but the wine list better. The restaurant is just pleasant and beautiful to sit in - a real treat and you can spend hours sauntering down to the bar for the last night cap. The staff are disturbingly ALL goodlooking. But we are in Germany after all. They only do dinner. Order all the sides if you can! Best to go in a big group. read more

Cosy casual elegance in the heart of Mitte. We ordered the slowed cooked lamb and pork dishes with creamed corn and sweet potato mash. Hearty,filling, and tasty. Highly recommend for a relaxed dining experience. read more

Food was lacking originality and flavour considering our bill was over 120eur for two people. "Carlo's Vegetable Terrine" was bland, "German Saltwater Prawn" appetizer was 2 small grilled prawns on top of maybe 4 chopped snap peas with on the side a cup full of what tasted like melted butter. Beef tartare was pretty good, served with a kind of hazelnut purée, however the portion (for 12eur) was about the size of a ping pong ball. Duck fat fries didn't taste so special. Pulled shortribs had a nice flavour but I expected more for the price, this dish corresponds to what you might get in a pretty basic barbecue joint, not a supposedly gourmet restaurant. (Would recommend the short ribs from Cordobar instead!) No dessert for me, tried to avoid more disappointment. Service is good for Berlin and terrace is nice, but maybe this place is better for drinks. That said, I would not go back. read more

Excellent restaurant. The food and wine was just perfect. We really enjoyed the atmosphere.

Very cozy restaurant hidden in a backyard in an old brick building. Great service, and wonderful, tasty, slow cooked meat that melts in your mouth. They make great wine suggestions and the food arrives quickly. The atmosphere is buzzing and you feel very at home here. Best meal I had in Berlin! read more

I am married to a successful chef. She can't help but dissect every meal we eat and can vividly recall menus from 5 years ago. I am constantly trying to impress her. Katz Orange was recommended by 2 people when we made plans to come to Berlin. And much to my delight & amazement, it was the highlight of our entire 2 week European trip. I can not give this a higher recommendation. The whole space is really quite idyllic and charming. The outdoors is amazing, and all the rooms inside are decorated eclectically but tastefully. The cocktail program is delicious, the wine recommendations were fantastic, the food was off the hook (get the Duroc pork), and my wife is still talking about our great conversations with the sommelier. We were kind of on the fence about visiting Berlin, but it really rocked our world, and we would totally go back. Thank you again, Joshua, for making it such a special and perfect night for us. We hope to see you again sometime!!! read more

We had a wonderful dining experience at Katz Orange in Berlin. If you are an American in Berlin, it is simply a must try. The exposed brick and hip decor set in a stunning historic building make for an intimate dinner. They have an excellent sommelier to make sure you have the perfect wine to pair with your meal. My husband enjoyed the pork, while I had the lamb. The goose fat fries and roasted root vegetables refused to play second fiddle to the main courses. The entire evening was top notch from start to finish. Katz Orange was our favorite restaurant over the course of our 10 day Germany trip. read more

This place was recommended to us by friends in Berlin and it was BY FAR one of my most favorite meals...ever! I wish they had a second location in NYC. We had the 'candy on bone' and I can't stop thinking about it. The meat was perfectly cooked and they offer unlimited seconds. We also had pre-dinner cocktails that were mixed to perfection, wine with dinner, and the bread pudding for dessert. Our waiter was delightful, and full of excellent recommendations. The building is very beautiful also, and the vibe inside is perfect for a date night or nice dinner with friends. Katz Orange was the highlight of our trip to Berlin and we will definitely be back! read more

Love it. The meat was cocked perfectly. We tried all the starters i recommend every thing except fish based ones. Friendly staff and amazing selection of wine, we had a german red one which was very surprising. I recommend this restaurant !! My favourite one in Berlin read more

I'm visiting Berlin, staying just around the corner from here. I finally walked in tonight at 6:15 and was seated directly. The setting is beautiful. Off the street through a courtyard. Two levels and they walked me to the far corner upstairs. Place was full by 7. Brought my white wine in a red wine glass. Not sure why but I drank it. Food was fabulous. I created my own menu of short-ribs (melt in my mouth) with mashed sweet potatoes and cooked cabbage. Everything yummy. Definitely would recommend and come again. read more

I loved the place: the food, the atmosphere and the staff! The busy Thursday night was one best experiences dining in Europe. Me and y mom were so happy after leaving we turned back and had one more drinks at the bar! Go here! read more

You pay for the atmosphere. Place looks nice and fancy but that's about it. I gave it a chance several times and have to say the food is nothing special. Staff could be friendlier and less arrogant. read more

This is exactly the kind of place I don't like to eat at anymore - hip and foodie-trendy. We sat at the bar because there were no seats available. That is one of my favorite ways to eat, but we were seated right upon the bartender's ice-filled sink. That in itself wasn't fatal, but it was a poor choice. The menu looked somewhat promising, especially since its long-cooked meats were advertised as "candy on bone." To that end we ordered the pork and lamb with sides of quinoa and a rocket salad. The pork was tough and boring; the lamb, tenderer than the pork but also boring. The 'sauces' for the meat - boring. The quinoa, devastatingly boring with so much affectation. The salad, perhaps even more boring, with too much over-worked orange in the dressing. This was a thoroughly mediocre meal at a busy restaurant - unimaginative and uneven food for dull palates. The place certainly had the right 'look' and energy to the space, but dull, dull, dull. We received a free aperitif at the end of the meal, but that was too little, too late. read more

Friendly staff, unusually chic crowd, well cooked food that is rather too fusion kitchenish for my tastes. The place is beautiful. Make reservations in advance!! read more

Loved it here! Had a lovely evening here with my husband for our anniversary. Nice and cozy ambiance, very friendly staff and great food. Everything from starters to dessert tasted fresh, flavourful and delicious. Their fries are a must - best I've had in a while! Good portions and decent prices. Not cheap for Berlin but the quality is worth it. We sat at a very cozy table for two upstairs. Even though there were bigger tables around us it felt intimate. Great atmosphere for dates but also bigger groups as orders can be shared. Very nice exterior too. The staff was charming and helpful. Great dinner experience overall. read more

One of our favorite restaurants when we travel to Berlin. Located in an old brewery that looks like a cathedral. As you enter you must stop at the bar to try one of their unique martinis. I chose the Mescaline Mule, so tasty! Once seated we started with a couple of bottles of red wine and dived into the menu. Starting with the beef short ribs, the pork dish, can't place the name off hand and a cold salmon dish. Be sure to get a side order of their fries too, very tasty! Great atmosphere and beautiful models for people watching. read more

We had the slow cooked bbq pork "Katz Orange" and the fries with cashew pesto. We liked it but found it overpriced in the end. We had the chocolate cake for desert. It was good but, again, nothing amazing. I liked that the beer selection was local. Katz Orange's ambience is unmatched and the service is pretty good for a Berlin restaurant. We liked that it was no problem to order tap water (a known issue in german restaurants). All in all, a very good restaurant that makes you want to check it out a second time. read more

This restaurant was recommended to us by a coworker who has family in Berlin. The restaurant is quite popular so on our first try on a Sunday night, we were not able to get a table for dinner. We promptly made a reservation for Tuesday night for four. We had one additional person joining us last minute, and the restaurant was kind enough to accommodate us by giving us a larger table when we arrived. We ordered some drinks, some appetizers, some side dishes, and a dessert to share. Everything was incredibly delicious! You can tell the ingredients were very fresh, the flavor of every dish was unique and well-balance, and the staff service was wonderful too. Since many other Yelpers recommended the pork, that is what I ordered, and I enjoyed every bite of it! The meat was so flavorful and so tender, it was my favorite meals in Berlin. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I forgot to take a picture until half way through the meal! I also ordered the sweet potatoes side dish, also very delicious and the portion was definitely large enough for sharing. The outdoor seating area in the courtyard was really cute, and the inside of the restaurant was also tastefully decorated and cozy. Overall, a truly wonderful dining experience and one of my personal favorites. read more

So what more could you want? Cute hostesses, handsome and charming bar tenders, live music, hip music, subtle and warm atmosphere and delicious food. I can only imagine how lovely it would be to dive outside in the summer beneath the bell tower. read more

Our last night Berlin and so happy we made it to Katz Orange for dinner. Impeccable service! Food was great! We started with the sashimi & calamari dishes. Followed by asparagus, French fries & homemade ketchup, polenta, and the Candy On A Bone lamb and pork dishes. It was truly delightful and filling! We topped it off with two desserts: 1) peanut cheesecake (yes, as in peanut-butter!) with banana ice cream and 2) the rhubarb crumble. We really wanted to lick the dessert plates too. read more

Came here for silvester (new year's dinner) which was.. Well. Okay-ish... I guess. Several things came as a surprise( and i think quite well reflect the attitude ) - oversold - bad music ( reggae and rap for new years eve?.. Seriously? Life music was so loud and so unrelated to tbe cause that people started to leave at 23.50) - people sitting at community tables were had to share all of their dishes with strangers (why would you make your guest do that?) But yeah, the cocktails are nice, the place is beautiful read more

Just a wonderful overall experience. Appetizers, entrees, sides and desserts all were excellent. We shared the slow roasted lamb and the surprisingly good cornbread with mixed grilled veggies as our entrees. Even the French fries were great, which is a side dish. The wine list was good and reasonable, and we picked a nice Deutsche cab blend. The ambiance and layout were warm and comfortable. The serving staff was very friendly and helpful, though the first waiter we had told us he was a brand new waiter and turned us over to another waitress. Go there; it's memorable. read more

Loved it here. Super fresh items, both vegetarian and slow cooked meats. Quite the range. Duck fat fries... do it!

Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Overall: strongly advised! Got a four course dinner, and it was amazing. The fish - served as salad - was melting in the mouth, the soupe (pastinaken/topinanbour) delicious, the main course great (duck), the desert good. The service was really nice, knowledgeable about the menu and relax/authentic (for such upscale restaurant). Ambiance is cosy, with a lot of little details. read more

Loved this restaurant! Came here for dinner while in Berlin this week. The food was delicious and far exceeded expectations. I had the cauliflower dish along with burrata/French fry appetizer. All was great. Also the decor is super cute and cozy. If you're in Berlin for business or pleasure be sure to stop on in here. read more

Great Berlin restaurant , fresh , stylish and very comfortable to enjoy a great meal. Whole table enjoyed the family style on the menu. Great ... and Great cocktails... read more

I've been here for dinner twice - once by myself and once with a group of 4. The restaurant is beautiful and cozy, and the food is great. Had an amazing appetizer of mushrooms topped with shaved black truffles. Also - the Mexican Garden is super addictive. Try one. Or five... read more

Amazing food and great service! The slow cooked pork and the goose fat fries are simply amazing...

The food and the services weren't very good.. We returned 2 dishes, but still got charged for them..Didn't get all the dishes on time

No go. Me and an old friend went there last night to catch up on our lives. When I booked I requested a quite table, when we arrived we were seated in a big sharing table, next to us a large group of laud young men. That wasn't the problem when I asked to be sited somewhere else we were promptly escorted to a nice two sits table. Why didn't they sit us there in the first place? The ambience is very nice and cozy but food is nothing special and extremely overpriced. We had two appetizers and two mains, the polpo dish was ok, the Tafelspitz I couldn't eat. The lamb for two persons was ok but really too small for the price, 48 euros for two tiny pieces of meat. Side dishes are charged extra. Service was ok but not extremely friendly. The reservation was at 21:15 and according to our opentable confirmation we were allowed to stay two hours. Unfortunately the waitress was in a hurry at 22:15 she tried to pick up our mains while we were still eating it. At 22:30 she asked if we wanted to have a dessert, when we answered that we were ok, she started to pick up chairs and put them on top of the tables around us, getting ready to close. We felt very uncomfortable asked for the bill and left. I definitely not recommend this restaurant and I won't go back again. read more
