Tim Raue Berlin

Had a dinner at Restaurant Tim Raue a few weeks ago and had the Berlin-inspired menu. The food was, with the exception of the chicken fricassee, impeccable. A great way to celebrate a birthday or anniversary.

Dear Tim Raue, Where to begin with this post? I vividly remember in 2018 sitting at the television in the living room of a home in Florida coming across your episode of Chef's Table on Netflix and upon starting it, I was instantly mesmerized with your restaurant, your food and with Berlin. I appreciated and connected with your story and felt so captivated learning about the winding road it took for you to open a 2-Star Michelin restaurant. That is all it took for me have the desire to experience Restaurant Tim Raue in person. And so, a couple of Fridays ago I finally did. It was better than anything I could have imagined. I was blown away by the service received at the restaurant from start to finish, as though everyone was moving in perfect harmony while playing a complex symphony. Upon being seated, we were tended to our every need and never felt neglected. I was looking forward to the menu being served and loved that I got a card outlining every single dish being presented that evening to me. Now, if we're taking food, I am so happy that I entrusted my palette to your kitchen. Every course was so perfectly presented and upon tasting it, I was met with a spectrum of flavors that worked so harmoniously well together. If I had to pick my favorite course, it would definitely be the Wasabi Langoustine. I had wanted to try it every since I saw it on Chef's Table and it was divine. I also tasted things I hadn't ever tried before, like imperial Caviar with sprat, which blew my mind with its umami flavor and wagyu beef cheek, which was braised to perfection. I really am so grateful to have had the privilege to dine at your restaurant. It is the single most memorable food experience I have ever had in my life and I will never forget how special I felt and how immaculate the food was. Please continue inspiring everyone at your restaurant to doing amazing work so that many more people can experience the unbridled joy I felt with every moment dining at Restaurant Tim Raue. With Gratitude, Dev.

An incredibly amazing experience!! I’d definitely give more than 5 stars if it were possible. Food, service, drinks, atmosphere - everything exceeded my expectations by far. It’s like something familiar, something you can relate to, but at the same time, something new and totally surprising. Thank you, Tim Raue & Team. When you enter the restaurant, you understand that this is not just another fine dining experience. The interior is well designed, has very tasteful art and decoration and some accents are set. Promising for the experience to come. Restaurant Tim Raue offers three different menus, Kolibri, Koi and a vegan option. It does not really matter which one you take - all of them are excellent. I also passed on the wine pairing, I preferred the recommendations. And these were excellent as well. Tim Raue is famous for a rather „in your face“ attitude than can be felt in his dishes. I‘d say, you realize his own signature, his own interpretation in the food. That’s why it’s so hard to pick a favorite course. The „Wasabi Langoustine“ (Kaisergranat) and „Peking Duck“ are famous and you should not miss them. Both were dishes that totally excited me: you know what they are supposed to taste like, you know the flavors, and you‘ll recognize them. But it‘s also different, like something you have never tasted before - in a very positive way. But enough of these words, I can only recommend to just go there and experience it on your own. The staff does not disappoint, too. Very friendly, very attentive, helpful - the entire team: just great. We had an amazing evening we will remember for a long time. And we will come back to create more memories there. Thank you for that experience!
