I had the hummus plate with beef. The hummus was a big serve, I was unprepared for how much hummus the serving was and regrettably only managed to finish half of it. The tahini with chilli and spinach pesto style topping was absolutely delicious with the bread. Ordering a side plate of salad to go with the hummus would be ideal just to add some freshness to heaviness of the hummus. The only downside to the experience for me was that the place was smokey with the grill smoke that you could see it in the air. I'm not sure if the extractor fans were on or whether they were just ineffective. They could have opened a window at least. We walked out of there smelling of the grill smoke, not ideal if you intended to go out afterwards to an event.

Grilled salmon, sweet potato fries, regular fires, hummus and falafel - delicious!

I visited this small quirky restaurant with my boyfriend whilst in Berlin for 5 days. Both being pescatarians, fussy healthy eaters, and with nut allergies it was difficult to find restaurants which served fresh fish as most were meat based (I searched online for restaurant menus for hours!). Djimalaya ticked ALL the boxes. We ate here 4 nights out of 5 we enjoyed the food THAT much - plain hummus, pitta bread, falafel, sweet potato fries and salmon with a fresh salad for the main. Amazing and so tasty!! All food was made to order and the serving staff were ever so helpful and pleasant - something which we found to be rare during our stay at other restaurants! Especially the Polish server, she was great and really attentive - I wish I caught her name! This restaurant really doesn't get the credit it deserves on Yelp which is a shame because we would have over looked this restaurant with such low ratings. I'd highly recommend to anyone visiting the area. 10 out of 10!

djimalya ... discovered a few months ago - looking for some more Healthy and lowhistamine Restaurants I could Go to for Dinner with Friends (or lunch). since then it became a good Dinner Choice and hummus is really nice there. so is the chicken! (maishänchen) and the Sweet potatoe fries. tbh it's not cheap but it's Mitte .. so what can you expect. it's a 5,90€ for Fries but they do come healthy and crispy:) plus you always get a free starter. it's really nice israelian authentic Kitchen and you Should defo try it! plus they have a Great Choice of wine and fresh juices too!! sadly the service hasnt always been the best. Sometimes it Takes Quite a bit until a waiter comes (again)... but well... i still like it;)

Went by a recommendation, the hummus was very average and a small overpriced portion. My boyfriend remained hungry. We're not coming back.

Our waiter was able to speak English and that helped a lot. Menus was both German and English again making it easy for us. The special menu had tune tartare and it was very good. I added a combination of oysters that were delicious. Then main menu of salmon for my wife and lobster with spaghetti and lobster bisque sauce was wonderful. No room for desert but had caffeine free cappuccinos that were very good.

The bartender here can pretty much make any drink you want so my dirty martini and my friend's old fashioned were perfectly poured and presented. We started with a couple of the appetizers- the beef tartar is a little different than what I normally get as it is prepared table side and really had a wonderful flavor and texture. The other appetizer we had was the halibut ceviche and this too was very tasty and light. For my entree, I ordered the Sea breeze which was salmon, white fish and prawns and my dining companion went with the surf and turf. And for dessert we had the apple strudel (huge piece) and the creme brûlée which were both delicious. But what pushed this to a 5 star review for me was the level of service that we got from our server Armondo. He was attentive, pleasant and seemed to anticipate what we needed before we even knew we needed it. We actually went back another night just to sit in his section! And finally- the ambiance of this place is artsy and contemporary. A wonderful place to enjoy a nice dinner or even just to grab a drink at the bar.

Overall, this restaurant is relying on its name and history instead of food, quality and service…read more Food: we tried the venison goulash and the roasted goose. The goose was so overcooked it was like goose jerky. The venison goulash was decent, but by no means exceptional. Service: rather mechanical and simply checking boxes instead of actually paying attention to customers. For example, we told her waiter we were ready to order. But instead of taking our order, he said wait I must first bring you bread. He disappeared, brought us bread, and then allowed us to order. Ambience: classy ands classic. Overall cleanliness: excellent Bathroom, cleanliness: below average, papers left all over the floor. Free Wi-Fi available

This place is overhyped. Locals recommend it. Visitors recommend it. I recommend skip it…read more Arrived: made a reservation and arrived on time. Host was friendly and greeted us. Our waiter was struggling to keep up. Drinks: ordered a beer because I don't like wine Food: we wanted to order but told wait till we get bread. Okay. I asked the waiter goose or wiener and before I finished the word, he said the goose for sure. I ordered the goose. The plate was lovely to look at. The goose was overcooked and so dry that it was so tough to cut it and eat, thank goodness for the sauce or it would have been inedible. The cabbage was the best part of the dish. The kale was overcooked mush. The puff of dough was interesting texture to the topping. Worse goose I have ever eaten. Bathroom: downstairs. Cool staircase. Clean until you went into the stall. The stall had toilet paper all over the floor. Restaurant: very clean

We arrived around 5:00 pm but since we had no reservation, the host informed us we would have only one hour to enjoy our meal before we had to leave. I speak only for myself as i was disappointed in my meal. I do not read German so had difficulty determining what I might want to eat. Our friend said no English menus were provided, so I decided on Vienna Breaded Chicken and salad with a lemon vinaigrette dressing (26,50 €). My plate arrived with three pieces of heavily breaded crispy chicken strips, a lemon wedge and a small bowl with butter lettuce coated with tasty dressing. The chicken, however, was dry and required a knife to cut through it. In the U.S., such chicken strips one might find at a fast-food restaurant like KFC and would come with a dipping sauce to heighten the taste. Fortunately my companions had no complaints about their food, so I'm supposing I simply ordered the wrong offering for my taste and the cost for such a simple meal.

Lutter & Wegner knows how to seduce…read more From the moment I sat down to a table covered in spotless, crisp, starched linen that practically whispered you're in good hands, I knew this was going to be a slow, delicious affair. The Brandenburg duck arrived looking like it knew exactly how good it was. Perfectly cooked, glistening, and confidently posed beside lush red cabbage, a tender dumpling, and a half caramelized apple that leaned in like it had a secret. One bite of the duck and--oh yes--succulent, rich, and finished with skin so perfectly crisp it crackled ever so slightly before melting away. Pure seduction on a plate. Our waiter was attentive in that smooth, unhurried way--patient and charming as I ordered in English, never rushing, always present at just the right moment. The kind of service that makes you linger longer than planned. The atmosphere? Romantic without trying too hard. Candlelit energy, soft murmurs, and the kind of elegance that invites close conversation and another glass of wine. Reservations after 6:00 pm are absolutely necessary--this place doesn't stay a secret for long. Lutter & Wegner doesn't just feed you... it flirts with you.
