    We came across this restaurant by chance when we were looking for something to eat before a musical at the Theater des Westens. There were generous portions at reasonable prices. The service was friendly and quick. The food was clearly presented and tasted okay. The quality of the ingredients also left no reason to complain. I can't understand the many bad reviews. Luckily we only read the reviews after our visit. We had a delicious meal at a reasonable price and the accessibility and location are also very good. The only thing that could be worked on a bit more is the cleanliness of the restaurant itself.

    Unfortunately, the food wasn't very edible, the garnish on the plate, which consisted of perfumed cucumbers and a not-so-pretty tomato, was unfortunately the beginning of a not-so-great dish, the sliced ​​meat on the menu was different from what was on it table came. At first the pieces of meat were much too big, then you had a whole onion on the plate which was only quartered and the sauce was pure chemicals, so the skill of the cook wasn't evident from that, so you ask yourself whether he's tired of it or whether he's tired of it didn't pay attention to how to make your own sauce at school. So, as the manager of this restaurant, you should ask yourself whether you are making a change in the kitchen or whether you are still opening at all. The last sentence requires an apology from me, but I think it needs to be said. And I feel sorry for the waiter that he has to serve something like that.

    It was great, a very friendly and humorous gentleman served us, the food came quickly, it tasted very good and we weren't bothered by any annoying cigarette smoke. We recommend

    The food is excellent with generous portions. I've eaten here several times during my stay in Berlin and the food was delicious both morning and evening. My only criticism is that the staff could friendlier. They were pleasant, but it stopped there.

    Excellent food. Don't be fooled if it's empty, it's one of the best restaurants in the area. :)

    The food wasn't very tasty for the price. The meat was fried for too long and was very dry! Fried potatoes look different. No matter what positive things were learned from it...never again

    Love this place. We just moved to the neighborhood and discovered this local gem. We come here at least once a week now. Great quality food, good portions, excellent decor/ambiance/music, great service, and affordable pricing. My favorite dish is a filet trio of pork, beef, and turkey. Yum!

    Came across the restaurant by chance. Since we just wanted to satisfy a small lunchtime hunger, the low prices surprised us. For little money we got a huge chef's salad with large scampi and a chicken fillet as well as a vegetable gratine. The vegetables were fine cold and warm, the taste was pleasant, the service was friendly, the room was nicely decorated. Only then did I come across the reviews that seemed to describe two completely different places. Either the restaurant actually has two different faces, or something is wrong here. The price-performance ratio is so good that even minor defects would not justify a lower rating. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because we didn't order any top dishes and therefore such a rating would be premature.

    This was the best food I had in Germany. We waited for quite a while but it was soooo worth it. Our waiter was extremely nice. Vielen vielen Dank 🧡

    So I ordered a beef steak, and I asked for it be raw/medium. I got a very dried up steak which wasn't red at all. The lettuce had many brown spots, which looked so gross, and underneath it there was a little, moist, cold frie. (I didnt have fries just one big potato with sauce inside) Beside that, the waiter was rude, "coldish". He didn't have any emotion on his face or laughed. He didn't asked us "how was your food" or anything. I told him I didn't like the food, and its too well done, so he goes off to the kitchen, comes back and tells me "the cook said its a medium". I say no and he says yes and starts arguing with me. Thats the dumbest and rudest thing you can do with a customer. Just say "yes you're right" because I had to eat the damn steak and saw it with my own eye it wasnt red at all. Thats it. Bad food, bad waiter. Its kinda cheap but not worth it.

    The food isn't really that edible, the service is really bad, there's no space for movement... Most importantly there is no menu change, you always eat the same thing over and over (and it isn't really that good as I have explained earlier). You really don't want to eat here (unless you're forced to).

    We were there with a group for dinner... Some of us sent the food back because it wasn't really edible. Some of the food was cold, the meat was tough, the sauces (ready-made sauces) were still "powdery"... The staff present were surprised and unfortunately didn't really accept the criticism... gave at least one free drink... Unfortunately no recommendation...

    Nice people. Good food. Fun decor (art prints) and good jazzy music playing. We go fairly regularly and know what’s good there. Not usually crowded. They sometimes provide dinner for tour busses so you might get there when the place is slammed with bus tourists. They accept credit cards. Easy access to KuDam. We have never had the buffet (?) but the menu has good things on it.

    We made an reservation online, Got a confirmation. The day before we received Yet another check up to confirm what we still needed the reservation. On arrival the restaurant was closed!

  • 5/5 Jim R. 9 months ago on Google • 7 reviews
    A quiet little haven, with delicious food, just off the bustle of Ku'damm. I went solo, but I think this would be a great place for a special meal with close friends, family, or that special someone.

    The food wasn’t bad at all, I didn’t like something but all eatable

    We had breakfast here. It was absolutely lovely. Excellent service, very generous portions. This was a random find, ie we just found the place while walking by. So happy we came in here.

    I am a high school student in Denmark and about a week ago I was in Berlin with my high school for a little trip. We were about 87 students and 5 teachers. The teachers were planning a dinner for us to enjoy our time together as one big family. The teachers found this restaurant and emailed them asking if their food was halal, because a fair amount of us are muslims The owners of this restaurant had the audacity to lie to the teachers and claimed that they were pakistanis and that the food is halal. (Because a lot of pakistanis are muslims) When we then show up to the restaurant, one of our teachers, who is muslim, had a bad gut feeling, so he asked a waiter if the food is halal and he straight up said no it is not. Turns out that they are Indians and have nothing to do with halal food at all. Our teacher and all the other muslim students were annoyed and fustrated. We just wanted to enjoy a nice dinner. So we left the restaurant after half an hour and spend close to half an hour finding somthing to eat at 22 o'clock... If you know what's best for you don't visit this restaurant, because it turns out that their food in general does not taste good at all.

    One of my favourite places in Berlin. Morning, noon or night for food and drink. Just 5 mins off Ku'Dam.

    I wanted to go out for a nice meal with my girlfriend for New Year's Eve. We spontaneously saw the “restaurant”. NEVER AGAIN!!! Let the food go back. NOT tasty AT ALL! complete deviations from what you actually ordered. The sour cream was apparently diluted 3 times with water, milk, etc. The BBQ sauce was incredibly bad! Spareribs are not spareribs, but bone-dry ribs. In the end we left the food and left.

    Food is very tasty. Menu is clear. The restaurant has a nice interior and the service is very friendly. So I can recommend it.

    Meat fried until bone dry, frozen spinach cold, fried potatoes dripping with fat and not fried. Hygiene questionable with material cupboard in (!) the men's toilet. I let the food go back. Avoid!
