The Stage

The location alone is really something! It takes under 20 seconds for the lift to take you up to the seventh floor of the Dula Centre. Upon entering the restaurant, you can take a peek into the kitchen. In the chic, modern dining space, you have a fantastic view over Dortmund and the Westfalenstadion. The terrace is also gorgeous. Michael Dyllong and his team serve up a meticulously prepared set menu with four or six courses – you have the option to upgrade by adding Japanese Wagyu beef, N25 caviar or a selection of French cheeses. There is a vegan alternative, too. Additionally, the four-course Marktmenü, made with market-fresh produce, is also available Tue-Thu. The service is extremely professional, thanks in no small part to restaurant manager and sommelier Ciro De Luca, long-time business partner of the chef. Tip: Exciting events, such as the Table du Chef with Michael Dyllong, are organised on a regular basis.
