About the restaurant
We are FABELEI, a bright atmospheric cocktail bar in the heart of Berlin-Schoeneberg. We run a non-smoking concept with bistro kitchen.

Our approach is creatively modern: we use the latest techniques to advance and enhance our cocktails and dishes. We centrifuge, fat-wash, ferment or perfectly cut ice sticks and cubes for your drink. Due to our sun terrace and the Mediterranean influence of our team, we pay attention to the establishment of the aperitif culture in Berlin. We handle booze, but you will also find a non-alcoholic selection.

Curious? Come and have a look. We are looking forward to your visit!

For renting the entire bar or further requests, please contact us via mail.

Please note that OpenTable requests credit card information in certain cases of the reservation. However, a fee will only be charged in the event of a no-show (non-appearance without prior cancellation)! Data is only stored for the purpose of reservation & deleted immediately.

About the restaurant
Traditionell und doch ganz anders: Deutsche Küche 'Tapas Style' im PeterPaul.
Wir kochen traditionelle hausgemachte Klassiker wie Königsberger Klopse, Sauerbraten, Kassler, Fischstäbchen, Thüringer Klößchen und einige andere Gerichte, welche alle in der Mitte des Tisches zum Teilen serviert werden.
So hat man die Möglichkeit viele deutsche Klassiker „en miniature“ zu probieren.

About the restaurant
Next to the beautiful terrace the pantry offers a cosy feeling with its comfortable brown leather seats. Artists such as Tina Winkhaus and original oil paintings from Aldo Christofaro and Paul Maier-Pfau create a relaxed atmosphere.
The cuisine surprises with Iberian- Pacific dishes.
All products are regional sourced as taste and freshness is very important for the Pantry offering healthy dishes with international flair.

The Pantry team is looking forward to your visit.

About the restaurant
FREA ist das erste 100% pflanzenbasierte Restaurant, welches bewusst auf Plastikverpackungen verzichtet. Alle angebotenen Lebensmittel kommen aus nachhaltigem ökologischen Anbau. Alle Zutaten der Gerichte, werden bei FREA verarbeitet und zu kreativen und leckeren Gerichten zubereitet. Unser reines Sauerteigbrot kommt aus der hauseigenen FREA Bakery. Die Reste die nicht mehr weiterverarbeitet werden können, landen in der hauseigenen Kompostiermaschine (Gersi). FULL TASTE, ZERO WASTE, das ist wofür FREA steht.

About the restaurant
Die Speisen im Macionga Restaurant & Weinbar sind unsere Lieblingsgerichte, aus den verschiedensten Regionen, die mit meist aus saisonalen und regionalen Produkten interpretiert werden. Die Basis und das Handwerk unserer Küche sind die französische Küche. Die Aromen Welt, in der wir uns bewegen, hingegen grenzenlos. Alle Speisen, die wir ihnen servieren, sind durch den täglichen kreativen Austausch entstanden. Unsere Gerichte werden sensibel kreiert, mit Zeit und vollster Passion . Es geht in unserer Küche nichts über den Geschmack. Schnickschnack hat auf unseren Tellern nichts zu suchen.
Der Starsommelier und Weinkreateur André MACIONGA hat mit dem sterneerfahrenen Spitzenkoch Christopher WECKER einen kongenialen Partner und Küchenchef gefunden. Maciongas berühmt berüchtigte wine pairings, seine Erfahrung des Cuvetierens eigener Weine in Zusammenarbeit mit deutschen, französischen und spanischen Weingütern, bilden dazu die Perfektion und den Hochgenuss an Weinbegleitung.

We decided on the 5 course tasting menu with a wine pairing. Every dish was as delicious as it was beautiful. The staff was welcoming and helpful and every pairing was well explained to us. One course even unlocked a childhood memory for my fiancé. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to any one looking for a lovely dining experience with amazing food and wine.

About the restaurant
Modern design, cozy ambiance, relaxed atmosphere: that's what the restaurant Le Faubourg is known and famous for - along with its location being next to the legendary Ku'damm. Their French cuisine combines haute cuisine standards with ideas of sustainability. Due to the moderate prices, menus are accessible to everyone. This is the reason because of their young and ambitious chef Lukas Hackenberg, who wants guests to feel at home when dining at Le Faubourg. He gained experience in fine dining at several first-class restaurants, such as the former 2-star restaurant Reinstoff, at Pots Berlin, and at the awarded restaurant Faelt. The menu at Le Faubourg changes seasonally and focuses on different dishes, featuring vegan and vegetarian creations as well as meat and fish dishes. In addition to the high-quality dinner menu, the restaurant offers a varying lunch menu on weekdays.
