Top 5 restaurants in Kreuzberg

 

Kreuzberg's restaurant scene has never been more vibrant than today. It’s part of the appeal of this much-loved district of Berlin. Also tenderly called xberg is in constant motion. I personally have seen a lot of restaurants come and go in Kreuzberg, but the best places always remain. That is why I have compiled a list of my Top 5 restaurants in Kreuzberg that come with concepts and delicious menus. Guten Appetit!
