The story
Mariona brings Catalan cuisine to Berlin through a space shaped by founder Josep Troiano’s original vision. He built the restaurant around shared tables and familiar flavors that felt like home. The kitchen continues to serve Mediterranean plates that prioritize fresh ingredients over complicated techniques. Guests at this Kreuzberg location still taste the influence of his time in Spain.
The dining room favors simple wooden furniture and an open street terrace where neighbors gather for casual meals. Every order leans toward traditional small plates and seasonal mains that pair easily with Spanish wine selections. The Schlemmer Atlas awarded the venue one ladle for maintaining this straightforward approach to Catalan cooking. Visitors consistently note how the menu stays rooted in Catalan recipes rather than trendy fusion concepts.
Staff members keep the original spirit alive by preparing dishes exactly as Josep first designed them. The kitchen operates without pretense, focusing on traditional preparations that honor everyday Spanish life. Even after the founder passed away, the team maintained the same unhurried pace and warm greetings. You will find the door off Skalitzer Straße waiting for anyone who wants a quiet table and honest food.
