MINA sits between the East Side Gallery and the Spree in a long pavilion, with floor-to-ceiling windows that open onto the riverside terrace when the weather plays along.
The kitchen crosses Italy with the Levant — hummus and fattoush sit next to handmade pasta, grilled fish and a truffle pizza on a paper-thin, crisp crust. Inside, marble tables and daylight — an open kitchen where pizzaiolo and grill station work in plain view. Lamb kefta on Sardinian fregola lands mid-menu, pistachio tiramisu at the close. The wine list runs from a Southern-Italian glass to a Lebanese Bekaa bottle, and the sommelier listens instead of reciting suggestions.
