Restaurant FACIL

Oasis of dining culture at Potsdamer Platz, Berlin

High above Potsdamer Platz, on the fifth floor of THE MANDALA, a light-filled space of glass opens up, surrounded by trees and bamboo. FACIL. An oasis in the heart of Berlin. A place where, through the interplay of atmosphere, cuisine, and service, nature becomes an experience.

Since 2001, the team led by Executive Chef Michael Kempf and Maître Manuel Finster has consistently operated at the highest level. Their aim is to combine lightness and complexity in both the glass and on the plate in a way that surprises on the palate.

Two Michelin stars, held continuously since 2013, stand for this commitment. Every service, twice a day. “My team and I continue to evolve consistently – with curiosity, discipline, and great respect for both the product and the people behind it,” says Kempf. Evolution instead of revolution. For 25 years.
