3/5 Daniel V. 4 years ago on Google
I
visited
this
restaurant
on
a
saturday
afternoon,
because
I
was
looking
for
somewhere
I
could
eat
some
typical
caribbean
food,
which
I
had
not
had
for
a
good
amount
of
time
after
moving
to
berlin.
The
restaurant
itself
is
nice
and
cozy,
has
some
cool
decorations
and
good
music
(if
you
dont
mind
latin
american
music,
and
in
particular
cuban).
The
service
was
also
good,
the
waitress
was
very
friendly
and
happily
explained
the
dishes
to
us,
she
also
spoke
spanish.
The
atmosphere
and
the
service
are
the
main
positives,
however
the
reason
I
am
taking
two
stars
is
a
bit
because
of
the
food
and
the
prices.
I
ordered
the
"steak",
this
however
is
not
a
steak,
at
least
not
one
that
remotely
shared
the
texture,
size
or
other
properties
that
I
have
ever
seen
in
a
steak.
The
flavor
I
have
to
say
was
good,
however
it
felt
a
bit
rubbery.
The
rice
and
fried
plantain
that
came
along
with
it
was
very
good
though.
Lastly
the
main
negative
are
prices
I
am
sad
to
say.
This
place
is
EXPENSIVE.
The
"steak"
plate
I
ordered
was
17
euro,
which
I
found
to
be
a
bit
expensive
for
what
it
was.
The
entrees
as
well
suffer
from
the
same
problem.
A
small
portion
of
"toston"
is
like
5
euros,
which
you
can
almost
eat
in
a
single
bite.
I
just
avoided
drinks
all
together,
all
of
which
were
above
6
euro
it
seems
(a
common
problem
I
guess
in
german
restaurants,
all
drinks
are
small
and
expensive).
Overall
it
was
a
decent
experience,
but
the
prices
mostly
I
am
afraid
will
keep
me
away.
UPDATE
/
RESPONSE
TO
THE
OWNER:
Voy
a
agregar
este
comentario
adicional
para
responder
al
dueño
/
dueña,
y
en
español
para
darle
la
misma
cortesia.
Yo
he
comido
bistecs
de
todos
tipos
toda
mi
vida,
y
particularmente
en
el
area
que
el
restaurante
representa,
y
nunca
mezclamos
el
concepto
de
un
bistec
con
un
filete.
Normalmente
son
cosas
suficientemente
diferentes
para
no
darle
el
mismo
nombre,
lo
cual
este
restaurante
hace
llamandole
"steak".
El
principal
negativo
no
es
este
sin
embargo,
ya
que
señale
que
los
sabores
estaban
bien.
El
principal
son
los
precios.
Esto
es
un
restaurante
casero,
pero
los
precios
pintan
algo
mas
exclusivo.
Quizas
entienden
que
estan
suficientemente
lejos
de
latinoamerica
como
para
hacer
pasar
un
moro
de
habichuelas
con
bistec
(gomoso
y
mucha
grasa)
como
una
langosta
en
berlin,
pero
yo
por
lo
menos
entiendo
que
no
lo
vale,
y
ciertamente
no
vale
17
euros.
Es
lamentable
la
agresiva
respuesta
del
dueño,
basicamente
indicando
que
no
se
nada
de
la
comida
berlinesa
(se
supone
que
se
llama
la
pequeña
habana
el
restaurante
no?),
y
que
debo
aprender
mas,
porque
estoy
"empañando
negocios
honestos".
A
pesar
de
que
fueron
3
estrellas
que
le
di,
no
1.
