Sushi and yakitori, done the Danish way. That’s what Sticks ‘n’ Sushi is all about. Just a few hundred meters from Rosenthaler Platz is where the Copenhagen sushi pros have made themselves at home at their third Berlin restaurant. Its design is inspired by the architecture of Japanese residential neighborhoods, with warm, earthy colors and eye-catching lighting. The menu has undergone a culinary upgrade, offering sushi mainstays and classic grilled yakitori (fish, meat or vegetable skewers grilled on a lava stone), as well as a range of vegetarian and vegan creations. These include crispy uramaki with avocado and sesame seeds, smoked beetroot tartare with deep-fried artichoke wedges, and shishito yaki sticks with padron peppers, spicy gochujang, tsume and lime sauce, served alongside grilled edamame with sea salt or spicy miso. Skillfully arranged and served on modern tableware, only fish and seafood from sustainable and certified sources are featured here. Be sure to leave enough room for dessert, because the green matcha marzipan balls with chocolate and yuzu sorbet are reason enough to visit.
