Lutter & Wegner am Gendarmenmarkt

Asparagus Dining in Berlin: What the Menu Offers for the 2026 Season

During asparagus season, the kitchen at Lutter & Wegner is in top form. From late March to June 2026, Lutter & Wegner serves the highest quality asparagus from Beelitz and Kremmen asparagus farmers, fresh daily from the field directly to your plate. What we particularly like: The menu offers a real choice for asparagus dining. There is Beelitz white asparagus in the classic variant with parsley potatoes and freshly whipped Sauce Hollandaise or melted butter, optionally with Havelland boiled ham, a small Wiener Schnitzel of milk-fed veal, Fjord salmon steak, or Pomeranian beef rump steak. Those who prefer something lighter will also find a risotto with Beelitz asparagus, with white and green asparagus, cherry tomatoes, and grated Grana Padano. So, asparagus is not just a side dish, but the main star in several variations.

A House with Over 200 Years of Berlin History

What began in 1811 as a small wine tavern on Charlottenstraße has evolved over two centuries into a legendary meeting place for connoisseurs, artists, and cosmopolitans. Today, restaurateur Josef Laggner runs the house on Gendarmenmarkt as a destination for timeless wine enjoyment and cultivated table culture. Thus, Lutter & Wegner is not an ordinary restaurant, but a piece of living city history. By the way: After a roughly 50-year interruption in business, the company has been located on Gendarmenmarkt again since 1997. If you are looking for a place in Berlin for asparagus dining that is both a landmark and top-notch cuisine, you should visit here. The Konzerthaus and the German Cathedral are just a few steps away.
