Rooftop dinner at Käfer in the Reichstag dome: 4 courses, aperitif, and Berlin’s evening lights, plus time to wander inside.
“Simply wonderful. The food selections offered from appetizer to dessert were DELICIOUS! Service was impeccable unlike many other restaurants/ beer gardens in Berlin. I scheduled dinner just before sunset... arrive early to enjoy the beautiful view atop the Reichstag because you are not able to enjoy the sunset sitting at you table in the Kafer. HOWEVER, you can enjoy the city lights and stay in the dome or roof top till midnight and view the city and lovely evening breeze.”
