November Brasserie is a luxurious contemporary japanese restaurant that specializes in seafood.
The restaurant has a beautiful interior, featuring a open kitchen/bar where the chefs can be seen prepping and arranging various dishes.
My most recent visit to November Brasserie was on Valentines Day '24, where I took my beautiful girlfriend,
Tully
out on a romantic dinner date.
Needless to say it was an awesome valentines dinner with my favorite person in the whole wide world.
Due to the nature of valentines day, roses were of course involved :)
I had been to the restaurant once before and I was excited to try out the stuff on the menu that I didn't have a chance to, the last time I was there.
Similar to Kai Maison they had a wide variety of cocktails on the menu, so we had to try them out.
The drinks were fantastic, and my drink, the one in the picture, had an interesting mix of flavors. The top was foamy while the bottom was somewhere between bitter and sweet.
The taste was quite sweet but the slight bitter aftertaste counteracted the sweetness resulting in a pleasant concoction of flavors.

Next comes arguably the most important part of a restauraunt: THE FOOD!!!
We ordered nigiri, shrimp with heads attached, an excellent tuna tostada, a simple but delicious eggplant dish, a mouthwatering steak, and to top it off we ended the night with two tasty desserts.
They have an amazing take on a mexican tostada, which was absolutely delicious. If you ever go here I highly suggest you order the tostada
November Brasserie has some of the highest quality Nigiri you'll find in Berlin.
The Nigiri was one of my favorite dishes at November Brasserie by far, we liked it so much we ended up getting another portion at the end.
You'd be surprised by these tiny slabs of fish, as they were packed with an indescribable amounts of flavor.
Next came the mains, of which the steak was the star of the show. We ended up sharing the steak and I must say the visuals were out of this world, as you can see in the photo below.
This steak was perfection. First of all there as plenty of it, so it took us a while to finish it.
Secondly, it was cooked to medium rare, my personal favorite, and swam in a flavorful sauce.
After the mains were devoured we decided to order the entire dessert menu which consisted of two desserts.
Dessert was not the best dessert in the world, but it was not bad either. I don't think their dessert is what people come for that's for sure.
However I'll give you a photo to feast your eyes upon, because I am oh so generous.
In conclusion, November Brasserie is quite the impressive restaurant when it comes to modern Japanese food.
The price point is definitely up there ($$$$), however it is located in a wealthier neighborhood and is a fancy restaurant.
The dessert could've been better in my opinion, but other than that I have absolutely no complaints about the food that was served.
If you are looking for an upscale Japanese restaurant in Berlin, this is your spot.
