On the Middle of KuDam, this nice restaurant is highly recommend! Nice staff, nice winelist and very nice food! Book in advance!

Solid restaurant in Berlin. They had really good pizza, and they had really good cognac. They also provided blankets for people sitting outside, which was a...

Loved this old-fashioned, elegant Art Deco cafe where we found not only a plentiful and tasty breakfast, but a wryly funny waitress. We were the only people...

We came across this restaurant on exiting "The Story of Berlin". it had immediate curb appeal and on viewing the menu we saw that they did a two course Business lunch including espresso on work days for 9.5 Euros exceptional value. The choice changed depending on the day. Today being Friday we opted in as the main course was Monkfish on a risotto: I had a salad to start my wife a chicken soup. With two beers the total bill came to under 25 Euros without a tip.Service was extremely good and very friendly. Highly recommended.

I'm afraid this review can only be about the awful service we received here because we didn't stay to eat after the staff were so rude. We tried to place a reservation online and were promised a reply to confirm but this never arrived. As it was a Sunday evening and restaurants in the area didn't seem too busy we decided to go anyway to see if our reservation had been made. On arrival we were confronted with one waiter who looked at us angrily as we stood near the door to ask about a table. He didn't bother speaking to us and simply waved an arm in the general direction of the bar.We went in and we're totally ignored for a few minutes by a waitress making a personal phone call. We then explained that we'd placed a booking online and wanted to check if a table was available. It was clear that there were several empty tables for two but we wanted to check against the reservation to be sure they weren't holding a table open. She looked at us without a smile, handed us a business card and promptly disappeared. The original grumpy waiter then appeared behind the bar, totally ignored us and even deliberately looked in he opposite direction when we tried to talk to him. He poured two drinks and stomped off past us again. By this point we'd enough and found somewhere else that actually had people there who appeared to want to serve their customers. . .
