Nestled on a charming Kreuzberg street, Tulus Lotrek pairs whimsical decor with inventive multi-course menus and an extensive wine list for a uniquely delightful dining adventure.
"Tucked into a pretty residential street in Kreuzberg, Tulus Lotrek has whimsical green jungle wallpaper and fur throws—both dead giveaways that this isn’t your usual Michelin-starred restaurant. The second sign? Vivacious co-owner and maître d’ Ilona Scholl, who basically advises you to get drunk while eating your way through the thoroughly unconventional small plates like lamb belly with lemon peel and yeast and ocean trout with goat’s milk and jalapeno. Ingredients hail from all over the globe, and although you may not love all the dishes, you can’t say they’re not interesting. This is arguably the most entertaining and least pretentious Michelin-starred restaurant in town." - Liz Humphreys
"Why is this restaurant run by Ilona Scholl and Maximilian Strohe so popular? For one thing, there is the gorgeous setting. Housed in a pretty old building in Kreuzberg, the dining area boasts high stuccoed ceilings, wooden floors, artwork and original wallpaper. For another, the informal yet well-drilled front-of-house team, which is headed up by Scholl, fosters a friendly, laid-back atmosphere. But it is of course primarily the cuisine that draws diners in. The chef-patron and his kitchen team use premium ingredients to devise really interesting combinations. Their secret? Vibrant stocks and sauces that bring the different flavours together beautifully and give the dishes that certain something. The whole thing comes in the form of two 7-course menus: omnivorous or vegetarian. And don't miss the charming terrace." - Michelin Inspector
"Quirky flavors and drink pairings that somehow work The vibe Just this side of kitsch The crowd Adventurous eaters having a ball The drinks Everything under the sun The food Never-boring tasting menus" - Liz Humphreys
