Fantastic Restaurants Around Kottbusser Tor Berlin

A trendy borough like Kreuzberg has a wealth of pockets, and Kottbusser Tor, or Kotti in Berlin slang, is full of personality. Kotti might be a small section of this happening ‘hood, but what it lacks in size it makes up in flavor. We list some great spots to eat here.

Cocolo Ramen Xberg

Despite the abundance of ramen places or noodle houses scattered about the Hauptstadt, not all of them manage to produce the same level of quality. Great ramen is heavenly, bad ramen is ugly. With the number of people crowded into this ramen house, it’s safe to say this one falls under the category of the former. It serves up authentic and carefully spiced ramen dishes, in addition to other Japanese dishes, but mainly soups. The interior errs on the fancier side, but that doesn’t mean the prices are astronomical. Cocolo Ramen Xberg delivers on taste and price with well crafted, traditional soups between 8-10 euros.

1. Kreuzberger Weltlaterne

Restaurant, Greek, Vegetarian

This isn’t as much a Greek restaurant as it is hanging out and dining with friends, who happen to be top-notch Greek cooks. The place isn’t anything too fancy, which puts the spotlight on the excellent food. Inside are spacious benches and tables that create a cozy feeling that matches the overall warmth of the food that is being created. The food is simple but irrefutably tasty, it’s well seasoned and made from the heart. Kreuzberger Weltlaterne is an excellent choice for those who want straight-forward Greek food without having to sit in a replica of the Acropolis.
