As my late-night döner habits can attest to, I wouldn't necessarily call myself a health nut when…read moreit comes to satisfying particular food cravings. (Carbs, carbs, meat, with a side of vegetables? Count me in--as long as you hold the tomatoes and throw in some extra grease for good measure.) So when it comes to fish and chips, I expect something equally as unhealthy and delicious. Dare I say even more unhealthy and delicious, as everything in this quintessentially British meal is meant to be fried. So maybe I was just barking up the wrong tree because I should've just hopped on a cheap Easyjet from Schönefeld instead of ordering a chippy in this corner of Prenzlauer Berg. After reading the other Yelp reviews, I realize that the most confusing thing about Der Fischladen for a first-time diner is that the side shop with the fish counter--the most intuitive place to enter--is devoid of atmosphere. And the other confusing thing? The meal itself. The fish in question was devoid of flavor because I couldn't taste the batter, though it was certainly tender. (A tad too tender, if you ask me though, as I questioned whether it was a little undercooked.) The chips seemed like frozen fries from a local supermarket and the ketchup tasted too much like curry ketchup for my liking, though I saw a later diner request what must've been normal ketchup from the server. Maybe we should just let British pubs do what they do best instead. And to be fair, it seems like Der Fischladen's specialities are actually the fish market on the side and all of the other fish dishes so the verdict is still out when it comes to the healthier seafood options.

Tried their fish and chips. They are more expensive than their partner restaurant "fischfabrik". 3…read moresmall pieces for 10€ compared to 5.90€ at fischfabrik. The batter is definitely better at fischfabrik. If you are looking for fish and chips and a better deal - go to fischfabrik

Got a mix of "shrimps", calamaris, and mussels. Shrimps really aren't straight like a log, are they. That's probably why the log-shaped shrimps, despite their nice batter crusty texture, seemed like some vague substance surrounded by crusty batter. The calamaris, if you strip back all the crusty breading to find an actual little skinny ring, were not only minimal, but mushy. The mussels were the best, because they did have more dark funky squishy mussels-like quality than the faux shrimp and the skinny mushy calamari. And the mussels did have some sort of vague flavor. The shrimps and calamari had no flavor, other then battery crustiness. This is not proper seafood - - it is a crusty batter vehicle, with mushy interior that reminds you somehow of seafood, but doesn't taste of it. It suggests seafood, but ultimately it is faux toy food.

After having a seat inside (it was just a bit too cool for me outside) and ordering a simple fish & chips from the waitress, it seemed like the longest time I've ever waited for such a dish. Then the waitress came over with this bowl and says "this is NOT what you ordered (which I could clearly see) but the chef didn't want you to wait any longer to eat something", your dish will also be here shortly and this is compliments of the chef". Now this was a great gesture (as that bowl of seafood was pretty awesome and kept me from writing them off ) but the really ironic thing is that, I had been just thinking to myself "I wish I had ordered some soup or something else"!! The soup was delicious and the fish & chips were really good too!!

We started with the lobster soup (bisque) which was great! I had the sea bass fillet and my friend had the salmon and we both had the mushroom risotto as our side. All was fresh and delicious and served by a well versed server. Dinner for two with drinks, soup, entree and dessert was E160 which was really a great deal for the quality of the food we had.
