About this place Zur letzten Instanz

Zur letzten Instanz is a traditional Berlin restaurant on Waisenstraße beside a surviving stretch of the medieval city wall, a short walk from Alexanderplatz. It claims to be the oldest restaurant in the city. The menu is old-Berlin cooking: Eisbein (pork knuckle), sausages, sauerkraut and rote Grütze for dessert. It is a gay-friendly mainstream restaurant, not a gay venue. It is open Tuesday to Saturday for lunch (12:00-15:00) and dinner (17:30-23:00), Monday for dinner only, and closed on Sundays. With more than 3,500 reviews it is busy with tourists, so book ahead for dinner.

I loved the place and the quality of the food and the service too. The person who was in charge of my table during lunch time (June 18th 2026) was very kind and cared to explain very well about the food and the ingredients. I highly value when the experience is more human and meaningful regardless how busy we get when traveling or working. So thank you

Unfortunately, I was not at all satisfied with my last visit. The Königsberger Klopse (meatballs) tasted good in principle, but the portions were far too small for the price. For what was offered, I feel the price-performance ratio is unacceptable. With a bill of over €160 (for four people), one shouldn't leave hungry. I hope this will be improved, as the dish itself has potential.
