Star Wine List Restaurants in Berlin

Anabelas

Berlin, Germany

A Portuguese restaurant on Pestalozzistraße in Charlottenburg, Anabelas brings the warm visual vocabulary of Lisbon to west Berlin: walls washed in deep green, dark wood furniture running toward an open kitchen, and glass sphere lamps overhead. It occupies a niche that Berlin's broader dining scene rarely fills, positioning it as one of the few dedicated Portuguese addresses in a city better known for its Michelin-laden German and pan-Asian tables.

Bandol sur mer

Berlin, Germany

1 Michelin star

A former kebab stand on Torstraße, Bandol sur mer has held a Michelin star since 2012 with a format that inverts almost every assumption about starred dining in Berlin. The space is small, deliberately low-key, and densely packed, while the kitchen produces a vegetable-forward creative menu with influences drawn from fermentation, smoking, and Far Eastern technique. It is one of the more considered value propositions in the city's top tier.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Barra

Berlin, Germany

Barra is a Berlin address for modern European cooking where the pull is less ceremony than focus: a compact modern-cuisine format, Daniel Remers in the kitchen, and a wine program repeatedly recognised by Star Wine List. Its Michelin Bib Gourmand status places it in the value-conscious serious-dining tier, a useful signal in a city where casual rooms can be more interesting than formal ones.

CODA Dessert Dining

Berlin, Germany

Enoiteca Il Calice

Berlin, Germany

On Walter-Benjamin-Platz, a few hundred metres from Kurfürstendamm, Enoiteca Il Calice operates as Berlin's Italian wine specialist in a setting that feels transplanted from a northern Italian piazza. The wine list anchors the experience, supported by a kitchen that treats the cellar as its editorial voice. For those working through Berlin's broader dining scene, this is the city's clearest argument for the Italian enoteca format.

Also recognized by Falstaff, Star Wine List

Estelle Dining

Berlin, Germany

In Prenzlauer Berg's low-key dining corridor along Kopenhagener Strasse, Estelle Dining has built a following on the kind of cooking that resists easy categorisation: serious pizza alongside generous sharing plates, with a weekend brunch that generates consistent word-of-mouth. Chef Jared Bassoff runs a convivial, flavour-forward menu where half the appeal is the format itself, designed for the table rather than the solitary diner.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Ezsra

Berlin, Germany

In the Neukölln district of Berlin, Ezsra operates on a farm- and forest-to-table principle that treats wild foraging and regional sourcing not as a marketing position but as the structural logic behind a daily-changing menu. The kitchen's commitment to hyper-seasonal cooking places it among a small cohort of Berlin restaurants where what you eat is genuinely determined by what the land produces that week.

Berlin, Germany

Wine Spectator Award of Excellence

Hafenküche

Berlin, Germany

Hafenküche sits directly on the Rummelsburg Bay at Citymarina Berlin, combining a waterside terrace, fireplace, and relaxed atmosphere in one of the city's more atmospheric eastern-district settings. The address at Zur alten Flussbadeanstalt 5 places it away from the central dining circuit, making advance planning worthwhile. For Berlin waterfront dining outside the tourist corridor, it occupies a distinct position.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

2 Michelin stars

A two-Michelin-star restaurant on the Kreuzberg canal, Horváth places Austrian culinary tradition in dialogue with seasonal German produce under chef Sebastian Frank, named Best Chef in Europe in 2018.

Irma la Douce

Berlin, Germany

1 Michelin star

On Potsdamer Straße, Irma la Douce has held its position as one of Berlin's most consistent classic French addresses for years, drawing a loyal following with boeuf bourguignon, a French-weighted wine list, and room warmth that borrows more from a Parisian bistro than a German capital.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

JAJA

Berlin, Germany

JAJA on Weichselstraße occupies the more relaxed end of Berlin's natural wine scene, pairing a minimalist rustic interior with shareable plates built on organic ingredients. Dishes like mussels with XO sauce and pork belly with red cabbage sit alongside a sommelier-led wine list that anchors the room's identity. The result is a neighbourhood spot that regulars return to for the food as much as the glass.

Also recognized by Falstaff, Star Wine List

Jolie Bistrot

Berlin, Germany

On a corner of Kollwitzplatz in Prenzlauer Berg, Jolie Bistrot translates the rhythm of a Parisian neighbourhood restaurant into distinctly Berlin terms. The space reads as a deliberate design statement: compact, considered, and built for the kind of unhurried lunch or dinner that the square's residential pace encourages. For the city's French-leaning bistrot tier, it sits in a category with few direct local rivals.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Katz Orange

Berlin, Germany

Katz Orange occupies a converted courtyard building in Mitte, where the rooms feel assembled rather than designed — mismatched furniture, warm light, and the kind of deliberate imperfection that signals someone cared deeply about comfort over spectacle. The kitchen draws on seasonal German produce with a farm-to-table sensibility that sets it apart from Berlin's more technically driven fine-dining tier. Booking ahead is strongly advised, particularly for weekend evenings.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Berlin, Germany

Kurpfalz Weinstuben on Wilmersdorfer Strasse holds consecutive Michelin Plate recognition in 2024 and 2025, placing it among Berlin's more consistent addresses for regional German cooking at mid-range prices.

Also recognized by Falstaff, Star Wine List

Lovis

Berlin, Germany

A Michelin Plate-recognised contemporary restaurant occupying a former women's prison building on Charlottenburg's Kantstrasse, Lovis trades on architectural contrast: candlelit intimacy inside a structure with a harder history. Priced at the €€€ tier, it sits a step below Berlin's €€€€ tasting-menu circuit while sharing the same neighbourhood ambition.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Macionga

Berlin, Germany

Matthias

Berlin, Germany

1 Michelin star

Matthias earned its first Michelin star in 2025, the same year Star Wine List ranked it number one in Berlin, a double signal that places this Kollwitzkiez international table at the sharper end of the city's fine-dining tier.

Berlin, Germany

Berlin, Germany

Nobelhart & Schmutzig

Berlin, Germany

1 Michelin star · Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence

Nobelhart & Schmutzig on Friedrichstraße operates under a strict regional sourcing philosophy: if an ingredient does not grow within roughly 20 kilometres of Berlin, it does not appear on the plate. The result is a six-course set menu that reads as a precise argument for Brandenburg produce, backed by a 9,250-bottle wine list and a place in the World's 50 Best Restaurants (No. 59, 2025).

Rutz Altes Zollhaus

Berlin, Germany

Few Berlin dining addresses carry as much continuity as Rutz Altes Zollhaus, a half-timbered house on the Landwehrkanal that has held its reputation for over thirty years. Now operating under the creative direction of Marco Müller, the three-Michelin-starred chef behind Rutz Restaurant, it occupies a specific tier in Berlin's fine dining conversation: heritage setting, serious kitchen lineage, and a postcode well outside the city's fashionable core.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Schmidt Z&KO

Berlin, Germany

The sister venue to Berlin's Michelin-starred Rutz operation, Schmidt Z&KO trades the city-centre intensity of its siblings for a cosy, lived-in room in the student neighbourhood of Steglitz.

Standard

Berlin, Germany

Standard on Templiner Strasse has set its sights on a specific, measurable target: Neapolitan pizza that holds up against Naples itself.

The Catch

Berlin, Germany

One of a small number of restaurants in Berlin where modern Japanese cooking and izakaya-style hospitality converge, The Catch in Charlottenburg positions itself at the intersection of European seafood culture and Japanese technique.
