Reasons to go

The restaurant sits atop the Reichstag, giving diners a way into the building without booking the standard dome-visit slots
Seating is limited by the Reichstag's security capacity, so the lunch sitting runs as a fixed two-hour reservation
A government-issued ID and security screening are required to enter, reflecting the building's status as one of Berlin's most secure sites

📖

Full description

The midday counterpart to Käfer's breakfast and aperitif sittings, this two-hour lunch service gives more time at the table than the shorter breakfast slot, making it a relaxed way to spend the middle of the day inside one of Berlin's most secure and recognizable buildings. As with the other Käfer sittings, dining here functions as an alternative route into the Reichstag, sidestepping the standard timed dome-visit queues in exchange for a restaurant reservation.

A 70 trendy score and 95 aesthetic score point to its appeal as a scenic, slightly indulgent midday break rather than a quick bite. It suits visitors who'd rather build lunch around a landmark view than treat the Reichstag as a standalone stop.
