EIVGI’S Orientalische Hausmannskost

EIVGI’S Oriental Home Cooking: Israeli Cuisine Without Compromise

This small eatery near Schöneberg Town Hall is both a restaurant and a catering service. It is run as one of the few truly kosher addresses for hummus in all of Berlin. The entire dining area consists of a single room with four tables and an open kitchen – simply nothing more is needed here. If you’re lucky, you can watch Shalom Eivgi prepare everything fresh. All dishes are truly homemade. The hummus follows the well-known Abu-Gosh recipe. You can taste it.

The restaurant is certified as a kosher meat establishment under rabbinical supervision. So, anyone looking for an Israeli restaurant in Berlin that takes this standard seriously will find one of the city’s most reliable options here. Falafel and hummus with salad and freshly baked pita are described by guests as the best they have eaten in Berlin.

Falafel, Shakshuka, and Why You Should Come Early

The menu includes Mediterranean classics such as falafel, shakshuka, and hummus. The falafel are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, served with homemade hummus and fresh pita. However, shakshuka should be inquired about in advance, as it sells out quickly. For meat lovers: a selection of meat dishes with chicken or beef is also available upon request.

Many guests emphasize the fair prices and good value for money, even compared to non-kosher eateries in the area. The restaurant is open Monday to Thursday from 12 PM to 7 PM, Fridays only until 3 PM, and Sundays again until 7 PM. It remains closed on Saturdays. For those also looking for catering for weddings, Bar Mitzvahs, or family celebrations, Eivgi can be contacted directly at the store or by phone.
