Irma la Douce brings a sultry, modern twist to French fine dining in Berlin. Located just off Tiergarten in Schöneberg, the restaurant blends classic Gallic glamour with a touch of playful irreverence—rich green velvet, brass accents, and an open kitchen buzzing with quiet confidence.
The cuisine is unmistakably French in foundation, but with inventive flair: foie gras with surprising pairings, delicate sauces, and bold seasonal ingredients. Chef Michael Schulz crafts each dish with precision, while the sommelier team delivers thoughtful pairings from an impressive wine list spanning Burgundy to biodynamic newcomers.
The crowd is as refined as the setting—well-travelled Berliners, diplomats, and cosmopolitan gourmets seeking a sophisticated yet vibrant atmosphere. At Irma la Douce, dining is equal parts theatre and indulgence, where every detail—from the amuse-bouche to the final pour—feels deliberately, deliciously Parisian.
