Rotisserie Weingrün is a rotisserie and grill restaurant in the heart of Berlin-Mitte.
Cuisine with flame.
Our specialties, with their unmistakable flavor, are prepared on the open-flame wall grill and the lava stone grill: Paderborn free-range chicken, Finnish flambéed salmon, and Barbarie duck from the open-flame wall grill, along with juicy beef tenderloin, tender entrecôte, and aromatic Duroc pork belly from the grill. Perfectly grilled for true connoisseurs. We also offer an extensive wine list as well as vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options.
Rotisserie Weingrün is a place that feels right. Perhaps because the roasted chicken reminds us of earlier times. Perhaps because Berlin still has a soul here. In a place that is more than just a street name. Just around the corner, at Petriplatz, Cölln was first mentioned in 1237, the origin of the city that later became Berlin. Those who look closely can still discern layers of the past here. Between old foundations, wells, and a Berlin that was once a village.
House with a soul.
A house that has survived history. Built at the end of the 19th century, it was the only house spared by the war. Today, it’s our home in Berlin-Mitte—a place for fire, wine, and authentic food. And right in the middle of it all: Gertraudenstraße, named after Saint Gertraud, the patron saint of travelers. A bridge, a statue—a quiet greeting to all who are passing through or have arrived here.
The rotisserie oven is our centerpiece. Grilled free-range chicken, Finnish flame-grilled salmon served directly on a board, Muscovy duck, spit-roasted celery. All prepared with embers, time, and love. Accompanied by sides like comforting hugs and soulful sauces.
Here, we grill, no messing around.

Up to 80 guests, open kitchen, authentic food, and drinks that tell a story. No banalities, no standing-table small talk. Instead, celebrations with fire & feeling.

What is a rotisserie, and what makes the Weingrün rotisserie in Berlin-Mitte special?
Rotisserie Weingrün is a rotisserie and open-fire kitchen located at Gertraudenstraße 10-12 in Berlin-Mitte. The focus is on open-fire grilling rather than gas or electric cooking: Specialties such as Paderborn free-range chicken, Finnish flame-grilled salmon, and juicy beef tenderloin from Simmental alpine oxen are prepared on the wall-mounted flame grill and the lava stone grill. The restaurant also offers an extensive wine list featuring around 50 selections from Germany, Austria, France, Italy, and Spain.
What is the difference between a flame-wall grill and a lava rock grill?
The flame-wall grill is an open-fire kitchen used to prepare whole or half chickens (Paderborn free-range chicken, black-feathered chicken, guinea fowl) as well as Finnish flame-grilled salmon, all with a distinctive smoky flavor. The lava stone grill is used for steaks and classic grilled dishes: beef tenderloin, entrecôte, Duroc pork belly, and BBQ spare ribs. Both types of grills are open and visible to guests, forming part of the dining experience.

The Paderborn free-range chicken is the signature specialty of Rotisserie Weingrün in Berlin-Mitte: a half or whole free-range chicken that is slowly cooked over an open flame on a wall-mounted grill until the meat is tender and finely grained and the skin becomes crispy. Mildly seasoned and well-rounded in flavor, it is, alongside the Finnish flame-grilled salmon, the second culinary highlight of the fire-cooked cuisine.
What sets a rotisserie chicken apart from an oven-roasted chicken is the technique: In classic rotisserie cooking, the chicken rotates continuously over an open flame. Thanks to the even rotation, the meat cooks gently on all sides, while the juices and fat that drip down repeatedly run over the skin, making it crispy on its own—without any additional breading or deep-frying. It is precisely this technique that Rotisserie Weingrün brings to its flame-wall grill: an open, visible fire pit where the grilling process itself becomes part of the dining experience.

What is the Finnish flame-grilled salmon at Rotisserie Weingrün?
The Finnish flambéed salmon is flambéed on a nail board with thyme honey and whiskey and served with a mustard-dill sauce. The dish costs €25 and is one of the signature specialties of the Flammenwandgrill.
How is flame-seared salmon prepared?
The salmon is cooked on a wooden board (nail board) directly over an open-flame wall grill and flambéed with whiskey just before serving, which gives it its characteristic smoky flavor and slightly caramelized surface. Thyme honey adds a sweet and savory note, while the mustard-dill sauce provides a fresh contrast.
-
Does Rotisserie Weingrün serve vegetarian dishes?
Yes. In addition to vegetarian appetizers and side dishes such as Sicilian Nocellara olives, oven-fresh rosemary bread, cheese spaetzle with fried onions (contains cheese and egg noodles), mashed potatoes, grilled vegetables, and mixed green salads, there is also a vegetarian main course on the menu. If you have any special requests, it’s worth giving us a quick call in advance—the team will accommodate them whenever possible.
Are there any vegan options?
Yes. There are several naturally vegan options on the menu, such as Sicilian Nocellara olives and grilled vegetables (wild broccoli, baby carrots, baby corn, pimentos), as well as a dedicated vegan main course—L'aubergine. For grilled potatoes, French fries, or leafy salads, it’s worth asking, as preparation (e.g., butter, dressing) may vary. We recommend speaking with the staff in advance if you have vegan requests. Please note: Käsespätzle is vegetarian but not vegan (contains cheese and egg noodles).
-
Does Rotisserie Weingrün offer gluten-free dishes?
Many grilled specialties are free of gluten-containing grains in their main ingredients, such as pure beef tenderloin, entrecôte, Paderborn free-range chicken, or Finnish flambéed salmon, as well as side dishes like grilled potatoes, corn on the cob, and mashed potatoes. Cheese spaetzle and rosemary bread, on the other hand, contain wheat. Since the sauces and the kitchen itself are not certified as gluten-free (cross-contamination is possible), we recommend that guests with celiac disease or gluten intolerance discuss this directly with the staff when making a reservation or upon arrival.
-
Is the Rotisserie Weingrün suitable for groups and parties?
Yes. The venue can accommodate up to 80 guests indoors and features a terrace right on the water, along with an open-fire kitchen with a grill that serves as a focal point. For groups, we especially recommend the “Three-Course Grill Platter” (price per person, featuring Paderborn free-range chicken, entrecôte, pork belly, and game bratwurst) as well as the “Ribs & Wings for 2” party platter.
How do I request a party or a group event?
The easiest way is by phone at +49 30 2062 1900 or by email to info@rotisserie-weingruen.de, specifying the number of guests, your preferred date, and the occasion (company party, birthday, dinner). For off-site catering, Rotisserie Weingrün also partners with Jolesch, which delivers Austrian specialties to your office or event venue.
-
Is the Rotisserie Weingrün a good choice for a business dinner in Berlin-Mitte?
Yes: a central location in Berlin-Mitte on Gertraudenstraße, an extensive wine list featuring about 50 selections from five countries, quieter seating areas next to the open-fire kitchen, and the option to reserve larger tables for business lunches. Upon request, the venue can also be reserved for private corporate events with up to 80 guests.
