A really good steak forgives no carelessness: the quality of the meat has to be right, the doneness has to be spot on, and the surroundings should carry the evening. In recent years, Berlin has developed into a surprisingly versatile steak city. At Brechts Steakhaus on Schiffbauerdamm in Mitte, dry-aged cuts mature with a view of the Spree, while at Las Malvinas in Friedrichshain, Argentine grill culture has been coming to the table from the lava stone for over 25 years. Anyone who thinks good meat can only be found in the center should venture a detour to the Steakhaus Marzahn, which attracts guests from all over the city with its quality. From the rustic neighborhood spot to the elegant grill restaurant, everything is here. Which steak house makes it onto your winners' podium?

For me, a perfectly cooked steak is the most honest test of a kitchen. For this list I tasted my way across the city, from ribeye to fillet, and paid attention to what really matters: the origin and aging of the meat, a clean doneness right to the core, powerful roasted aromas without burnt edges, good sides instead of a lackluster standard, and a service that knows how to treat a piece of meat.
