Or the complimentary espresso and Haribo candy. Or the kisses on the cheek by the handsome Greek waiters. ;-) Nope. Not at all. This is a solid 5 stars review simply for the value you receive for your money, the HUGE portions, the wonderfully prepared I can't take another bite, but I will eat anyway Greek food that just makes you shout YAMAS! all the way out the door. Cheers to places like Asteria.

After a long day of touring and shopping in Berlin we stumbled across Asteria and decided to give…read moreit a try based on the positive reviews. We arrived at 6/18:00 and took an outside table. The place was empty but we reminded ourselves that dinner starts a bit later here. We were greeted with a complimentary Ouzo shot (which continued to be refilled) & started with the Tarama. The dip came in 4 scoops and was pink. Although I've never seen pink Tarama, It wasn't the best Tarama that I've ever had and was okay. (But wouldn't order this one again) We also ordered Spanakopita which we enjoyed. For main, we had the "grilled meat for one"which was excellent (tasty grilled chicken, pork & Gyros!) but is really "Grilled meat for 2 or 3." We ended up sharing this which was a good idea as we couldn't finish it. After dinner, we received complimentary Cognac, espresso and dessert (fruit, yogurt) which was a nice touch and the restaurant was packed by the end of our meal. Overall, great service, food and atmosphere!

This spectacularly located, wonderfully set Greek eatery is the perfect establishment to spending an evening with your SO or enjoy a meal with a friend. Through the candle light you can read the menu and salivate over any number of the Taverne's mouthwatering entrees and appetizers. While I pondered seemingly forever over the options, I eventually settled on souvlaki with gyros in tzatziki sauce with a side of roasted Greek potatoes. If such a meal is possible in this mortal world of ours, I don't need to experience a meal in Heaven. To accompany my meal I went with a refreshing pint of the banana hefeweizen. Definitely recommended. After the meal, do yourself a favor and don't skimp on the desert. The chocolate lava soufflé with ice cream will send you off right. The staff is superb and efficient so be sure to tip generously as you take your leave and dream of the next occasion you have to frequent this glorious place!

The menu selection is extensive with daily specials to boot. Dinner portions are generous and in the 10 to 13 EUR range. Service is a little slow at times, as there were only two servers, both had their hands full, running around as quickly as they could. I ordered the grilled calamari, which comes with a side of rice and steamed veggies. I substituted my rice with a side salad. The calamari were tender and not greasy, although I would have preferred more grill marks. The veggies were surprisingly al dente, albeit the typical previously frozen mix of broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. I was relieved to find my vegetables were neither overcooked nor drowned in butter, as is so often the case in Germany. Dad ordered a pork braised in a red sauce with potatoes, which he enjoyed. The pork was tender and the sauce had an almost Moroccan spice mix of cinnamon and paprika. The traditional Greek salad is $8 and large for European standards, but too small as an entree by itself. Desserts are not very Greek, think roasted apples with walnuts and honey, or chocolate souffle. An entire menu is dedicated to ice cream sundaes, if banana splits and the like are your thing. I went Greek with Galaktoboureko, served with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. It was delicious, but the puff pastry to custard ratio seemed a bit off. I would have liked a little more custard, and the custard was firmer than I am used to. Different but enjoyed it very much. Free Ouzo shots before you hit the road, a nice gesture. I highly recommend this place, it is worth a trip on the S-Bahn and conveniently located right next to the Gruenau station.
