We waited for 15 mins to have a waiter coming to ask for our orders, and an additional 45 more mins for the food to arrive. The waiter that served us was very unfriendly and rude. He gave us a conscending look and an attitude, which we don’t understand where it comes from. We see him smiling and friendly to other tables, just not to us (group of Asians and a German). The restaurant is very loud, if you want a conversation and peaceful environment this place is not it. The food quality was okay, the pork knuckle was pretty good. Considering all together it was not a good experience. I personally do not recommend the place and would not come back here.

Has the pork knuckle and schnitzel - both meats cooked to succulent and juicy perfection. Great flavours and complimented amazingly by the fried potato, bacon and leak side. The schnitzel also comes with a tomato based vegetable sauce on the side for the extra layer of deliciousness. Excellent service with constant beer refills almost as soon as the glass is empty. Recommend!

I visited this restaurant twice in one week! It has a really good atmosphere. I recommend their beer. All the food I ate was absolutely delicious. The only disadvantage is that I think the waiters work a little slow.

Central of Berlin, nearby every where. I am not focused food any more , also will not drive for hour to get delicious. So choice restaurant between my hotel and attractions, that’s it. It is very good management restaurant, they take tour group for diner. Which short of seat as walk in. But bartender/ waiter / manager, guy does three job, very experienced and professional. We r happy be there. Thank!

Really nice place to experience cologne culture and food is also good. Beer is excellent and served in the traditional way. Would recommend the beef stew and pork chop , and apple strudel for dessert 🍨

So glad I wandered upon this place. A traditional Kolsch house that serves them fast and incredibly fresh. The beer is light and crisp and goes down very easily, so keep an eye on those tally marks! My first introduction to German food also could not have been better with their Blutwurst. Loving all things wurst, I assumed I would like it but absolutely loved it. Great service to top it all off, when in Berlin again, I will be back!

Very very tasty, very traditional, very smooth beer, liitle crowded, little nosy..but seems it is also traditional )

Really good German food and drinks. Their staff is friendly, and the restaurant is cozy. Their service is fast and efficient. Dessert is a most! 🍰🍰🍰🥧🥧🥧🍨🍨🍨 Definitely not the last time visiting.

Had the house kolsch and then black pudding with potatoes apples and onions. Best black pudding I’ve ever had. Good choice for my last supper in Berlin. I’ll probably get dessert too, but didn’t wait to write this. Nice beer policy: they refill until you put your coaster on the glass. Funny though. When I arrived there were two policemen escorting a fellow out. He walked without help but wobbled a bit.

Wir haben kurzfristig einen Tisch reserviert und das würden wir beim nächsten Besuch, der auf jeden Fall wieder stattfinden wird, wieder tun. Es war einfach richtig lecker, Dankeschön nochmal dafür. Hier bekommt man noch richtig altdeutsche Küche. Wir haben vorab eine leckere Soljanka und dann hausgemachte Frikadellen und Königsberger Klopse gegessen. Kleiner Tip zum letzteren: wenn es dazu noch rote Beete gegeben hätten, hätte es von uns eine 6 Sterne gegeben 😉 alle MitarbeiterInnen waren sehr aufmerksam, toller Service, danke nochmal und macht weiter so !!!!

The place was prepared in the spirit of Christmas and this touched my soul, the people around had a special warmth and cheerfulness. The food rose lived up the expectations , being the first experience of the vacation in Berlin.

First time visiting Berlin, Saw this place highly rated on reviews and decided why not try it. And I'm glad I did, the service was quick and prompt, polite throughout Towards the end of my stay, there was a local music group that came in and started singing with the crowd that was well recieved, despite not knowing that much German you do still feel a part of what's going on there The server Ioannis was great, gave excellent food and drink recommendations, really helped me live a bit more locally and do what I set out to of trying the local flavours. Will definitely come here again when I'm next down, maybe will lay off so many pints next time!

Nice place. The service was nice, the portions are big. On the other side I thought that the food will be more exceptional.

Went here twice while staing in the nearby Maritim Hotel. The food was excellent and the beer (Kolsch) is superb. Very friendly staff. Great decore. I'd highly recommend the schwenhaxe and or the schnitzel cordon blue. The pork slice is agreat too... more like bacon than pork, but a huge portion and served with delicious gravy and mouth watering mashed potatoes. Suggest you finish your meal with either the Kebekuss or the Schwester Herz!! Well worth a visit.

Koln drinking tradition: 0.2l thin tall glass, finish it, they will refill. Once enough, cover the empty glass with the coaster and they'll tally the total cost. Cosy, great beer and food.

Found this place by chance and it was awesome. Very friendly waitress, wide choice so accommodated different tastes. Funny small beer 🍺 0.2ml, excellent flammkuchen.

Ate here with a work colleague whilst in Berlin on business. We didn't book, but they managed to squeeze us in eating at the bar. Would recommend booking though. The food was fantastic as per the norm with the cuisine from the Rhine region. Beers were crisp and fresh, went well with the food. Absolutely spot on. Having cravings sat here in the UK under lockdown! Will be back at some point!

Very good beer and potato and sausage soup

A very nice establishment serving great tasting German food. Had the famous Currywurst here and it was wonderful. Great chips too. Friendly and professional staff who aim to please. Reasonable prices and a wonderfully designed somewhat quirky inside. Lots of space too. Only thing, they should have the option to have beer in a 1 litre stein.

Pretty good place. Nice for tourists. Large area to accommodate many. Food quality was good. Beer was good. Highly recommended

(Translated by Google) I ate at this eatery tonight. A great place to try both local dishes and European cuisine. Most of the time it will be meat, but there is enough seafood and desserts there of course. Very pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff. Cooking just wonderful! Everything was delicious and appetizing! Thank you! (Original) Ich habe heute Abend in diesem lokal gegessen. Ein großartiger Ort, um sowohl lokale Gerichte und Europäische Küche zu probieren.

Alles war lecker und appetitlich! Danke!

(Translated by Google) Very nice place. Attentive and friendly staff. The food and drink are also really delicious. Definitely worth a visit. (Original) Sehr schönes Lokal. Aufmerksames und freundliches Personal. Auch das Essen und trinken ist echt lecker. Auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert.

Spent nice afternoon here 2-4pm. and met up with friends visiting Berlin. Waitress very nice. We would go back just because of her. Always about staff. Good local German menu and of course all about the Kölsch Beer!!!!

Amazing food, drinks and desserts. Friendly staff as well. Absolutely a must, when you visit Berlin!

The food and the atmosphere. Friedrichstrasse is out a little from the centre of Berlin and the Gaffel Haus is set amongst a mixture of residential and numerous other restaurants. They serve genuine Russian and Jewish food and an easy underground ride from the centre of twon. You should have some meal in this place. Really good. Everything very delicious. Highly recommend

So lucky this beautiful restaurant was right by my hotel. Excellent service -the friendliest, fastest and most effective staff I encountered in Berlin. Delicious food and reasonable prices too. If I am to recommend a plate I particularly enjoyed the veal snietzel! Great experience overall, highly recommended!

Authentic German food. They were so nice to celebrate the birthday of a friend too. Nice atmosphere. It was packed on a Thursday night and although they were a bit late to serve. The waitress made sure to come and let us know that food is on its way.

This is a great place to visit for German food in Berlin. We had the Cordon Bleu and Apple Strudel. Both were excellent. Our server was super friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back the next time we visit Berlin.

Good Food and good happy Service with a great price, I would definitely recommend it

Very tasty flammkuchen and good beer! Staff is very friendly as well.

Excellent restaurant. Traditional German cuisine, and they also have a classic East Berlin potato soup which is delicious. Pork knuckle was moist and perfectly crispy on the outside. Mashed potatoes were PERFECT, a must-try.

Fabulous German restaurant, authentic & traditional with great choice of food, beer and wine - Riesling was particularly good. Service efficient, friendly and professional. Highly recommend for authentic German-experience. Close to Brandenberg Gate.

There are lots of decent currywurst and even some really good ones on the streets in another shops and is I've sampled most of them. They have redeeming qualities and some even have great attributes but Gaffel Haus has a very delicious and unique twist to their curry sauce that puts it above the rest. In addition to this, the staff the service, the ambiance of this place is so much fun. So helpful and kind, attentive and caring. This is a low key. Must visit great place in Berlin. Lyft will now be a staple for all return visits.

(Translated by Google) Top! Delicious! I was there many times with my brother. (Original) Top! Sehr lecker! Ich war oft mit meinem Bruder dort.

Very nice restaurant with a good selection of various dishes.

This place has very good food and they provided great service.

Considerate & efficient service. Delicious & sincere German food in a restaurant full of interesting cultural references. The schnitzel was incredible, and we finished off the meal with some tasty schnapps. Very reasonably priced too!

Had a great meal here. And the beer was nice too. Fair price.

All three dishes I've ordered were really tasty, especially I liked the soljanka, it's almost the same as back home, definitely can recommend.

(Translated by Google) Great restaurant and attentive staff. Was very tasty 😋 (Original) Tolles Restaurant und aufmerksames Personal. War sehr lecker 😋

We were lucky to get a table. Great food and beer.

This place is fantastic! It's my favorite restaurant in Berlin! Let's start by the arrival: there's a very nice gentleman who direct you to any open table. Once you sit, quickly someone come to check and take your order. I ordered a pork knuckle and a glass of merlot. It was insanely fast!!! It took literally only 2 minutes for both to be delivered. And it was nicely warm and wine was great too! Then a nice servant would come to check on me, but not too often so it could become annoying, which made me feel cared. I tipped them 25%, so appreciative I was! It's just simply a great restaurant in Berlin! With a huge selection of traditional German dishes. Very nice experience, will come back next time I'm in the area! For sure!!

Nice and good restaurant in Centre Berlin, right by the Maritim Hotel. Very friendly service (not necessarily a given in Germany) and reasonable prices. German food with more flair than usual and filling portions. Great decorations inside, nice interior.

What an incredible place. I really enjoy German food, I think this is the best I've ever tried. Endless supply of beer on tap. Leave your glass empty and you'll get a new one. The prices are extremely decent for what you get. Locals eat here. What more do you want?

Nothing more to say that’s an amazing typical play where to eat! People are funny and amazing and dishes are delicious. We loved our meal here on our first night in Berlin - came across it by chance walking back to our hotel. The staff were nice and accommodated is without a reservation, even though it was busy.

A great dinning venue tucked away in the central business district... offered great German food (the pork knuckle was soft and tender below the roasted skin). The atmosphere was great with a good crowd after office hours!

(Translated by Google) Super rustic location in Berlin that tastes good food and from time to time a Kölsch is also possible. We recommend (Original) Super urige Location in Berlin, dass Essen schmeckt und ab und zu ein Kölsch geht auch. Sehr zu empfehlen

Lovely beer, great food. Huge portions. Loud in a good way, and v.helpful staff, thanks!

Very kind waitresses, excellent location and really good food! Highly recommended

One more dinner in Berlin during my stay. Liked the soup, the main dish and the dessert were great. Friendly service efficient - and important for me - not too noisy. The good rating is well deserved, and I was left a very happy customer. I'd say a definite recommendation for people in the area .

Wonderful place! Amazing service and tasty food. Recommend

Try as many menu as you can. Great taste and great vibe.

Very good typical German restaurant. They have their own beer. Can say not touristic as was full of locals. Good choice of German dishes. Reservation needed.

Edit: Of course: You refused entry to a guest who had a medical certificate against mask obligation.

(Translated by Google) We were there with a larger group and unfortunately we didn't like it at all! Our female waitress (short hair) was quite unfriendly and we had to wait ages for our drinks. We also asked if a smaller (group of friends) could sit down a table closer to us. The lady refused, although we had asked beforehand whether the table was free. (So ​​you are lied to as a guest?) Later in the evening our waitress became more and more unfriendly and she said at the counter that we would like to pay. (none of us said or claimed that) so in good German we were asked to leave. After the payment we wanted to speak to the boss; This only said; get along with our waitress or not, you are no longer welcome here anyway. (Original) Wir waren mit einer größeren Gruppe vor Ort und leider hat es uns überhaupt nicht gefallen! Unsere weibliche Bedienung (kurze haare) war ziemlich unfreundlich und wir haben ewigkeiten auf unsere Getränke warten müssen. Zudem fragten wir ob eine kleinere (befreundete Gruppe) sich einen Tisch näher zu uns setzen könnte. Dies lehnte die Dame ab obwohl wir vorher gefragt hatten ob der Tisch frei war. (Angelogen wird man als Gast also auch ? ) im späteren Verlauf des Abends wurde unsere Kellnerin immer unfreundlicher und sie sagte an der Theke bescheid das wir gerne zahlen würden. ( keiner von uns hat das gesagt oder behauptet) also auf gut deutsch gesagt wir wurden gebeten zu gehen. Nach der Zahlung wollten wir den Chef sprechen; Dieser sagte nur ; kommt mit unserer Kellnerin klar oder nicht, ihr seid hier eh nicht mehr willkommen.

(Translated by Google) Super nice place! Nice and brisk service. Any time. (Original) Super nettes Lokal! Nette und Flotte Bedienung. Jederzeit wieder.

(Translated by Google) Nice hearty German cuisine. Have been here a couple of times now and like the restaurant. The food is great, the prices ok and a beer / Kölsch. What more could you ask for? Only once did I have bad luck with a huge drunken British pack at the next table. But you have that occasionally in Mitte. Oh, and the staff is authentic in a good way. (Original) Schöne deftige deutsche Küche. War jetzt paar mal hier und mag das Restaurant. Das Essen ist super, die Preise ok und dazu ein Bier/Kölsch. Was will man da mehr.

Ach und das Personal ist authentisch auf ne gute Art und Weise.

Really nice friendly restaurant. Staff were very polite, reasonable price. Can definitely recommend the Weiner schnitzel. Well worth a visit

Excellent food, very tasty, great cologne food, and good beer. Easy to find. Helpful friendly staff

Good food, great service. My dish was great (schweinehaxe)but my partner said the Cordon Blue could have been better- for that reason it looses a star

German vibes all around. Great people, food and drinks.

Meh. Food OK, but -- like the decor-- unimaginative. (Beef stew, 12.50 EUR, without even onions?). Our waitress had at least 14 tables-- not her fault-- we asked for the bill 3 times and it took 30+ minutes to pay and leave after finishing; no one in management seemed to care. The 3* I'm leaving is perhaps too generous; generic international style with some German trappings.

The menu looked good and extremely varied, and we (two adults and a teenager) had three different courses; winerschnitzel, grilled chicken breast and flamm lichen. All three looked good when brought to us, but all lacked salt (we had to keep adding) and was, unfortunately, not very warm. The place is big and quite noisy and seems a bit like a ‘guest factory’ - guests in / guests out and not particularly warm atmosphere. The staff were not unfriendly but not very welcoming either. Will not be back. So many other places worthwhile in Berlin.

Terrible experience. Neighbouring table smoking marijuana. Food extremely slow and waitress totally indifferent. Final straw was burnt schnitzel served to son; and kitchen covered this up by serving non burnt side up. Avoid.
