CULINARY DESTINATION Lorenz Adlon Esszimmer Located at Hotel Adlon Kempinski Berlin Unter den Linden 77, 10117 Berlin, Germany +49 30 22611960 www.lorenzadlon-esszimmer.de By Markin Abras, Photos/Hotel Adlon Kempinski Berlin If you’re looking for the pinnacle of fine dining in Berlin, Lorenz Adlon Esszimmer delivers an exceptional culinary experience. Located inside the historic Hotel Adlon Kempinski, this intimate, Michelin-starred restaurant offers just 32 seats in the main dining room and 24 in the adjacent library, creating an exclusive and elegant setting. The space features an open fireplace with a bust of Emperor Wilhelm II and offers a direct view of the Brandenburg Gate—an iconic backdrop that elevates the entire experience. If possible, reserve one of the window tables, but plan ahead: bookings often require four or more weeks in advance. Head chef Jonas Zörner, along with restaurant manager Oliver Kraft and sommelier Hans-Martin Konrad, leads a passionate team dedicated to French-inspired cuisine with modern flair. The multi-course tasting menu is precise, aromatic, and layered with balanced flavors—salt, acidity, and umami working in harmony. Choose from a 5- or 6-course menu, with or without wine pairing from an impressive 1,300-label selection. Highlights from my tasting menu included hand-dived scallops with salted lemon and Guanciale, goose liver ravioli with black truffle, and A5+ Wagyu beef as the main course. À la carte standouts feature Kagoshima Wagyu served in two courses, wild Brittany sole with Imperial Caviar, and a luxurious caviar selection accompanied by blinis, crème fraîche, and miso vanilla ice cream. Lorenz Adlon Esszimmer is open Wednesday to Saturday, from 7 PM to 11 PM. Please note the restaurant is closed for a summer break from the end of July until the beginning of September.
