Restaurant Maxwell

MITTE. Modern Med-inspired cuisine earns top billing at Maxwell, which occupies the circa-1878 Josty Brewery. Its mid-'90s redesign is punctuated by contemporary artwork by Brit-born artist Damien Hirst. In fact, the restaurant even pays homage to the artist with popular Duck à la Damien Hirst, served with black pepper sauce and vegetable rolls. Other superb entrees include grilled sirloin steak with ratatouille and parmesan-crusted breast of corn-fed chicken with black mushrooms and potato-rocket flan. In the summer, the secluded courtyard is a popular destination for couples. Terrific wine list too. Reservations are encouraged. S-BAHN: Nordbahnhof; U-BAHN: Rosentalerplatz
