"People who love great, but not necessarily experimental food, will be in heaven at Facil, which does a pretty tasting menu. While there’s nothing earth-shatteringly innovative about the food, it’s all excellently prepared and pretty as a picture, with dots and squiggles of sauces lining the plates. Many of the mains are international—Icelandic salmon, French octopus, Wagyu beef—and paired with seasonal, local veggies. Speaking of that salmon—it’s melt-in-your-mouth, so snap it up when you see it." - Liz Humphreys
"A real oasis of calm in the middle of Berlin! Up here on the fifth floor of The Mandala Hotel, diners can sit on the pleasant little terrace amid the chestnut trees and fountain. It belongs to this elegant, light and airy rooftop garden restaurant, where even inside you almost feel like you're outdoors thanks to the all-round floor-to-ceiling windows. Beautiful bamboo plants give a nod to Asia. As well as the great location, Facil also boasts incredible food courtesy of Michael Kempf (culinary director) and Joachim Gerner (chef de cuisine). Rooted in classical cooking, it also skilfully integrates Asian and Mediterranean influences. Creative dishes brimming with flavours and aromas. All this is rounded off by the smart, professional service." - Michelin Inspector
"Three-course set menu, served Monday–Friday – €78. A real oasis of calm in the middle of Berlin, the fifth-floor terrace of The Mandala hotel houses an inviting and intimate restaurant with a retractable glass roof, where Michael Kempf and Joachim Gerner cook classic cuisine with Asian and Mediterranean influences; Roderick Sloan hand-fished Norwegian scallop with sea fennel and lovage is a good example." - Le Guide MICHELIN
