Small town Rerik is about 3.5 hours north of Berlin by the Baltic Sea. It's filled with salty sea…read moreair, happy Germans enjoying the sunshine (in the summer!) and the quiet relaxing vibe that all of us city people crave every once in awhile. While Berliners are used to seeing Asians in their international city, it's not the case in Rerik. I did get a few stares but the worst was when the staff at Captain Flint said "NO FOTOS!" Oops. Guess only Asians take photos of their food? o_0 My fiancé has been here before and does not recommend the entrees. However, their fish sandwiches are FANTASTIC! We ate here 3x over the course of 4 days that we were in the area. And how can I not? these sammiches are cheap! It's best to grab these to go and sit at one of the benches outside and people watch. My fave is the Backfisch and it's only €2.50! the fish filet is fried nicely, flaky and has a smidgen of aioli and a single lettuce. Super simple, super filling! I also LOVED the very very sour Matjes (herring style) with raw onions. Intense flavors sure to give you bad breath ;-) The maritime décor of the restaurant is so fitting for the setting. But the name made me laugh since where else can you find an American sounding restaurant but in the middle of small town Rerik?! Good times.

Hungry in Ostseebad Rerik? You'll better be hungry for seafood in this small and sleepy Baltic Sea…read moretown or you'll be starving to death. Captain Flint is one of the few restaurants at the "Haff" which is a market place-like square in the middle of the town. Here you'll get traditional Northern German cuisine which mostly consists of some sort of (fried) fish, fried potatoes, and green salad with an undefined sauce. Solid food, nothing special - you'll get a good idea about what the folks eat here every day of the year. Portion size is okay (see pictures), and so is the value (Brathering mit Bratkartoffeln, 9 Euro, Matjesfilet mit Bratkartoffeln, 10 Euro). The dining room has a nice maritime theme and it's pretty cozy in there. Be prepared that you'll eat with a lot of older folks - most of them seem to be bored to death. Funnily enough, they don't really talk to each other but will stare at you while you finish your meal. Oh Baltic Sea, you are so joyful and optimistic.

Great casual fish restaurant right at the beach! My dad was looking for halibut which was almost…read moreimpossible to find allover town. I guess they really did catch almost all of it? Too sad. This place still had it in the menu. Nice outdoor seating area friendly service and reasonable prices. Only rose wine they offer is California Zinfandel. oy! Why? If you don't like syrup don't order it. I had the split of cult like Rotkapchen sparkling wine which is local and if you order it in the " trocken" variety it's not sweet. No vegetarian or vegan options on the menu. I know it's a fish restaurant but I'm always surprised that no one offers a salad or veggi dish for those that accompany their meat eating friends.... still nice place

While we were walking the coast of Germany, we tried to find someplace to eat on a Sunday. This was…read morethe only restaurant that we found open. We decided to give it a try even though it was a seafood restaurant and we were in the mood for other type of food. I am really happy that this was the only place open because it was very good. Everything we ordered was great. I had the tiger shrimp with a good local beer. Our group had a variety of other dishes including fish and other seafood and all of it was cooked to perfection. If you get the opportunity treat yourself and come to this restaurant. The prices were very reasonable.
