The story
Verōnika is a European restaurant at Oranienburger Str. 54 in Berlin, and it received the Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence in 2025. The dining room sits on the fourth floor of Fotografiska Berlin, the city's photography museum, and the kitchen cooks in a Mediterranean-leaning European style.
Der Feinschmecker lists Verōnika at 2.5 for 2026 and credits Roel Lintermans, who once worked with Pierre Gagnaire, with a strong command of fish and sauces. The guide describes caper gnocchi with artichoke and spinach beurre blanc, and a turbot fillet set on paper-thin zucchini in a white wine mussel sauce. Saffron crème caramel is flambéed at the table.
The European kitchen changes its menus with the season. The summer menu is vegetarian and built on strawberries, apricots, fennel, chanterelles and burrata. The wine list leans toward newer producers from Germany and France, including Bernhard Huber in Baden and Henry Boillot in Burgundy.
