WOW!! What a restaurant!!…read more We had no reservations, but our party of 6 was seated right away. The food was of course Greek, but it made a concession to German sensibilities by having colossal-size meat portions. The appetizers were terrific, the service was attentive, and even the salads were amazing. (My wife had one.) My sons couldn't make up their mind, so they got various variety platters which of course they couldn't finish. Many of their fun dishes had names like "Minotaur Plate" or "Centaur Plate", and they also had various 2-person and even 4-person dishes. I tried to get my wife to go in on one with me but she panicked. I ended up getting the lamb cutlets of which they had a half-dozen varieties. You get 5 lamb "cutlets" to a dish, but they are small enough that I was not completely swamped by them. I did give two away to my table-mates. Both quantity & quality blew us all away. By far the best place I ate in Germany this year.
