I am not much of a breakfast person, but I wanted to check it out since it was the last morning we would be able to. I was gonna a solo breakfast, but luckily the hubs woke up and joined me. (Or maybe I kinda woke him to join me. Lol!) There is a full on huge buffet spread along with an a la carte menu, coffee, etc. (No alcohol included obvi, but you can purchase separately.) All was included which was awesome. Since I don't eat much in the morning, I only made one plate and the hubs and and I shared an a la carte dish. Got the a la carte item, we got the Truffle & Egg (€28). Came with 2 poached eggs on brioche bread with pastrami, arugula, truffle hollandaise and fresh truffle. It had a good amount of truffle aroma / flavor. I typically like my pastrami a lil fattier, so this was a touch too lean for me. It was also a little sweet. The arugula helped with that tho. My buffet plate was a mish mosh of smoked salmon, veggies, a piece of bread, etc. I also got a coffee. I believe the buffet itself costs €55 per person. I'm glad we were able to check it out during our stay. If this comes with the room, definitely hit it up once. REVIEW #4099

We are staying at ritz Carlton so decided to have dinner for the first night in Berlin at their…read morePots restaurant. Good atmosphere and friendly staff. I ordered 4 course menu and my BF ordered meatballs. It took more than 1 hour for the first food to arrive at our table. They did offer us a complimentary glass of wine when we enquired about the delay but we're not big drinkers. This food was actually my 2nd course (cod). When I enquired about my first course (burrata) that was then offered to me 60 seconds later after I had started on my cod. This is totally different experience than my previous experience in other cities in Germany when I was impressed with German's punctuality but not this time. At least, Cod was delicious. My beef came out rare when I ordered medium well and I had to sent it back. Overall the food was fine, the ambience lively and the staff were nice. Without prompting one of the managers on clearing one of our courses did apologize and state that our entire meal would be comped however the delays and confusion were very unexpected at a Ritz Carlton and disappointing.

Plus, we were able to get a table right away upon entering on a Saturday evening. We both ordered a beer and started the meal with some traditional Goulash. YUM! Even my husband loved the soup. I chose the sausage platter for my meal and my husband ordered the Weiner Schnitzel. Everything was so good. Lots of food- I couldn't finish. The German potato salad was surprisingly really good! We are big fans now. Our server was awesome and was so attentive to our table despite how busy the restaurant was. This is a great spot!

As someone from Northeast China, I found this place weirdly familiar…read more One funny thing I realized while eating here: German food actually has a lot in common with food from Northeast China. Big pork knuckle, sauerkraut, potatoes... I felt surprisingly at home. I started with the beef tartare with egg yolk. I'd give this one around 3.5/5. It was good, but the portion was huge, and I couldn't finish it. Then I had the potato soup. Very hearty, but a little too salty for me. The best dish was definitely the classic boiled pork knuckle (Eisbein). This was the highlight. Very traditional, very rich, and the sauerkraut was excellent -- sour enough to cut through all that fatty pork. That combination really works. What makes this restaurant interesting is the whole concept. It focuses on old Berlin food from around 1900, so the dishes feel like real working-class food from that time: big portions, heavy flavors, simple ingredients, very filling and very direct. Basically: no tiny fancy plates here. The food arrives like it has a job to do. If you prefer light and delicate food, you may find some dishes a bit salty and heavy. But if you want to experience traditional old-school Berlin food, this is definitely an interesting place to try. Overall, I'd give it around 3.8/5. The Eisbein alone was worth trying.

Food comes up in a new gangles tech auto mat. ...but the best surprise is how well it's prepared and how wonderful it tastes. We had the pumpkin ginger soup. It was magnificent. The flavor of the soup was robust and defined, topped with a texture variation of finely chopped fresh apple, lightly cooked carrots and a drizzle of sour cream. The best salad I've had since landing in Europe. Fresh interesting and varied greens. Feta olives mini brown bread croutons and virgin olive oil and vinegar dressing. Then a deconstructed beef stew called stroganoff style. Tender beef well cooked beef on a bed I'd smashed potatoes and a hint of red beets. All topped with pearl onions mushrooms and a savory pickle relish. To die for flavors. All set in peaceful modern setting, great internet, music and helpful low key staff.

We went…read morearound 6pm without a reservation and I didn't think we'd be able to get in given it was a Friday night and the place is usually quite busy, but I think we were early enough to manage to get it. We opted for the Dinner w Friends and drinks menu where the chef decides which meals will come out and unlimited beer/wine are included (for 75€ which is a great deal!). You have a 2 courses where multiple dishes will come out at once - a nice balance of appetizer and fish, meat and vegetable plates. All are shareable and very delicious. Everything was so flavorful! I especially loved their salmon ceviche which was more like a salmon poke, in a Bloody Mary sauce which was so unique and interesting! The sesame seed "bagel" with the pickled veg and tahini sauce were also phenomenal. Throughout our meal, our waiter would come by to check in on what we'd want to drink also while offering shots haha. Everything was fantastic but I'd say the only thing that was just okay was the dessert. They brought 2, one was a chocolate truffle dish and the other was some sort of "cake" made from sorghum flour topped with pistachios. The truffles were good but much too rich and the cake was a little bit of an interesting texture although fine flavor, but nothing that exciting. Otherwise it was a fabulous place to eat and I'd totally go back!

Kari's Rating 8.5/10…read more TLDR: -No reservation, group of 6 waited 15 minutes -Free honey and liquor shots while waiting -Upscale mediterranean restaurant with decent prices Came as a group of 6 around 7:55pm on a Thursday. We walked in without a reservation-lucky for is- the host Ahju told us to wait half an hour and wait upstairs in the coach house and they would bring out free shots while we waited for our table to be ready. There were actually two other larger groups upstairs and we all ended up bonding over family members and friends who were running the Berlin marathon this upcoming Sunday. Since a lot of of us ate earlier, part of our group did a top of style share plates The other two of us ordered à la card as we had big lunches. The group that shared ordered the bagel, the skewer, the cauliflower dish, butter bean chicken and a rice dish. This was more than enough food for four, as the bagel was quite larger than we had expected and came with a spread or two. They seem like a very upscale place as there were quite a few individuals waiting outside, tables were constantly full and the service stuff were rushing around at a seemingly busy pace. The music was a little bit loud-a little harder to have a normal conversation, but it was also a Thursday evening so there may have been excitement in the air. Best dish was voted the butter bean chicken as it was sweet and very flavorful. The bread pudding was a very generous helping and the Joe was soft and sweet with a light dusting of powdered sugar and pecans. A very filling delicious dessert that is a bit uncommon in America. This was a very pleasant place to stumble upon on a Thursday!
