Just a few steps from Gendarmenmarkt, Austernbank resides in the vaulted strongroom of the former Disconto Bank. This elegant fish restaurant combines historic architecture with sophisticated French cuisine and is one of the capital's most stylish addresses for special evenings.

An Evening at Austernbank

The Berlin fish restaurant, located in the former strongroom of the erstwhile Disconto Bank at Gendarmenmarkt, is modeled after the famous “Grand Central Oyster Bar” in New York. The vaulted arches, tiled masonry, granite floors, and an open show kitchen lend the pillared hall a poignant, vibrant ambiance. Austernbank also offers private rooms for closed events – making it suitable for company celebrations as well as private anniversaries.

Fresh Fish, Oysters, and French Cuisine

The menu, curated by Executive Chef Muttalib Missmann and his team, impresses with fresh fish, oysters, seafood, and selected meat dishes. The relaxed French cuisine ensures an evening full of culinary delights. Specialties include a seafood platter with Fine de Claire Normandy oysters and aromatic Belon oysters from Brittany. Those who prefer not to eat fish will also find something to their liking: In addition to fish and seafood, the menu also features selected meat specialties. Furthermore, a terrace is available for comfortable outdoor dining – a nice bonus during the warmer months. For those looking to celebrate a special occasion in Berlin with dignity, Austernbank is a clear choice.
