Trad Bavarian restaurant with a theatre and cinema in the backyard: this was film director Fassbinder's favorite restaurant.

Sun-Thu 08:00-23:00, Fri Sat 08:00-00:00

Sushi+Soul

Japanese restaurant with a modern atmosphere and freshly prepared sushi and sashimi. They also have a large assortment of cocktails and Japanese whiskeys. Pricey, and some reviewers aren't convinced it's worth the extra.

Daily 18:00-01:00

Takumi

This ramen restaurant has moved round the block from its former abode on Heßstraße. It's a tiny place and waits of an hour to get in are common. They go heavy on the miso, shoyu or shio so some customers find meals over-salty.

Wed-Sun 12:00-15:00, 17:00-21:00

Mon-Sat 10:00-01:00, Sun 10:00-23:00

Deutsche Eiche

This hotel restaurant caters to non-residents and gets great reviews. Look for the row of flags, including an LGBT flag to mark the hotel's history in the gay community, and usually a platter of raw mushrooms outside the main entrance. Sometimes they display a poisonous mushroom saying that it's for the mother-in-law, that's how inclusive they are.
