Reviews
A fantastic place to sit, a stonethrow away from the loud (and ugly) Potsdamer platz. It is quiet, space around the tables, you can actually sit outside with the sound of the water ornaments. The service is very good although some of the staff are very young and lack a bit of experience. The sommelier made nice suggestions. The food is amongst the very best you can find in Berlin. It is relatively refined with excellent products, but no goosebumps materials here. The amuse was a joke and not worthy of a Michelin star kitchen. Starters and mains were ok. Two stars in Berlin is not two stars in Paris, Tokyo, Copenhagen or Belgium. Berlin has a long long way to go to become a culinary hub, but clearly many restaurants in Berlin would benefit from working a few months in facil s kitchen. The lunch prices are on the other hand very reasonable for a 2 star restaurant. I will come back.
Facil, Berlin, Germany. A modern European cuisine with a French influence. With two stars under its belt one should be prepared for some experimental aspect. While some dishes are memorable signatures, others may not be. The items are presented beautifully and eye catching. The atmosphere is chic and elegant. Ingredients are of high quality. Service is professional and attentive. Rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5 Average PPP € 425
For years, consistently the best place for me for a relaxed, outstanding dining experience and wine pairing. Empathetic, friendly, and highly knowledgeable service that makes shared thinking and conversation genuinely enjoyable. And the bright spaces exude a sense of freedom and relaxation. Here’s to the next 25 years!
We celebrated a birthday at FACIL and it was a truly unforgettable experience. The restaurant is a stunning 'floating oasis' near Potsdamer Platz—surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass and lush bamboo, the atmosphere is incredibly serene and Zen-like The service was impeccable from the welcome drink to the final dessert. Each dish was a masterpiece, offering complex layers of flavor and texture that far exceed any ordinary dining experience. It’s clear why they hold two Michelin stars. We can’t wait to return and try their full gourmet menu. Highly recommended for any special occasion
We had an absolutely amazing experience at Facil restaurant Berlin. Delicious and artistically presented food and impeccable wine selection. We went for 8 course menu with wine pairing. The sizes of portions are actually quite good and large, everything was just fantastic. We do recommend to visit this restaurant when you are in Berlin.
