Brilliant view of Berlin from 200m above, the TV Tower gives you a chance to eat breakfast at the highest level. Good food, big portions and an excellence in view presentation. Your table goes round so that you can see all the views. Important to book online, as this is a very busy place. I had dinner with my partner at the restaurant on a Sunday night. The overall experience was amazing. Of course very pricey since you pay 57 (for both) only for the entrance but somehow expected! The starters were ok nothing special and I wouldn't even recommend the prawn cocktail. The main courses were both great. The taste was perfect, however I would like the texture of the meat and the fish a bit more tender. The dessert, especially the cheesecake was amazing! Miguel our waiter was very informative, attentive and friendly, yet very discreet. He was really taking the time to explain everything we needed to know. It was very much appreciated the fact that when we asked for recommendations he was very honest and didn't try to sell the expensive choices! We stayed at the restaurant for about 2,5 hours and were not rushed at all. The view is breathtaking and the rotation makes it even better! We paid around 250€ for the whole meal, a bottle of wine and the the entrance fee. However the experience was totally worth it. I would definitely revisit! Sphere restaurant, branded with Tim Raue’s name, offers a truly spectacular 360° panoramic view over Berlin — the setting is undeniably impressive. Unfortunately, the culinary experience doesn’t live up to the expectations. We booked the visit with Currywurst set menu at €42 per person, hoping for a gourmet reinterpretation worthy of the chef’s reputation. It was a letdown: curt service, long waits (25 minutes for drinks, 35 minutes for the food), and a dry Currywurst with a bland sauce that barely tasted of curry. The bread roll arrived only after we asked if something was missing. The whole experience felt like a tourist trap, far from what one would expect from a chef-driven restaurant. The most absurd moment? A beer charged at €10.50 — which we thought was included — justified by the waitress as a “beer with a panorama”… That line says it all. We ended up heading back into the city and found an excellent kebab to round out the meal — far more flavorful and satisfying. In short: the view is worth a visit, but not the food. It’s overpriced for what’s served, and frankly, it doesn’t reflect well on Tim Raue’s brand. It certainly doesn’t inspire confidence to try his other restaurants.

Entering Berlin’s High Society The highlight of our weekend trip was dining at 207 meters high at Sphere Tim Raue, offering one of Berlin’s most unique culinary experiences – a refined journey paired with a rotating panorama from the city’s iconic TV Tower. The menu celebrates authentic Berlin flavors, reminiscent of grandmother’s kitchen memories, yet elevated with Tim Raue’s modern sophistication. The three-course menu, enhanced by thoughtful touches from the kitchen and impeccable service, made the evening both memorable and delicious – all while enjoying dazzling views across the city. Simply a must when in Berlin! Thank you to the team for a beautiful evening and memory.

View is nice as you can get much closer to the windows than on the normal viewpoint below, (windows are also much cleaner). We asked for a table next to the window and the hostess said no (altough there were plenty free). We were curious about Tim Raue food but it was disapointing. Solianka soup had too much mustard, meatballs too much pepper and salad not fresh (brown spots all over the arugula, letuce was not crispy, Onions and carrots cleary came from a jar).
