The feeling: Most of the waiters had big smiles and were very welcoming, but it didn't feel very welcoming as no one cared when you walked in. Ambiance: Great interior.

Traditonal no, but we are in Germany not Japan! Everything we ordered was good beyond just edible…read morebut nothing ticked all the boxes as the flavors we love from Japan, gyoza was probably the most traditional. Hubby ordered ramen it's the reason I choose this place on a cold day and his love of ramen. He ordered #2 Gyu ramen, he asked for extra spice (which comes in a bowl on the side) and changed the beef for the rolled pork which was his favorite and most authentic part of the ramen. Noodles were obviously thinner and from a bag compared to fresh ramen in Japan, but he was happy to enjoy and slurp all the broth! I ordered Yakitori as our appetizer which was all white meat which i prefer typically but never had yakitori this way nor had it not coated in the sauce as part of the grilling process; came with a yaki dip that was okay nothing great nor memorable. I ordered the chicken gyoza which was great, To round out my meal as I prefer all the stuff other than ramen I ordered the Karaage which was served on quinoa (which I learned I guess I like) it would have been 5 stars had it been served with lemon and find ground salt and pepper like it should be! All in all if we were back here we might hit them back up, unless better reviews for another japanese style place was in the area.

Meals are fine, service is quite fast, although it took me some time before I could be heard, and…read morethen I wasn't sure I had been understood until the plate arrived, as the waiter must have made a wow of silence and constant movement that they probably find hard to break from, even for customers. In any case the food was okay, nothing special, and it's not really comfy enough to hang out there.

Ohhhh, yes. Another notch on my sushi belt!…read more Lets be clear, Shiki is a bit of a poshy place, located directly in the city center. The atmosphere is a cool, relaxed vibe. They have the option to sit at the center bar (with an awesome, huge fish tank) or at a table. The kaiten (merry-go-round bar) is super cute, with the sushi going around on little boats in water. Come on! Awesome! As for the sushi: what do you expect in interior east Germany? Obviously not the best sushi you will have, but very decent. I was not complaining, because it was still better than the majority of sushi I have had anywhere in the UK. Also, lots of options, including one for all you can eat. Score! Only drawback was that the staff were a bit slow and impossible to track down. Poor dining companion waited 20 minutes to find someone for a beer. Otherwise, worth it!
