Especially when I found out they take credit cards as almost nobody else in Berlin does! The burrito didn't blow me away, but it was pretty damn good. I needed more kick, so I asked the girl working about the hot sauce on the counter. She warned me how hot it was, and mixed it with some salsa for me. I thought she was just being a typical European afraid of true spices, but no, this thing kicked my ass. By the end of the burrito I was sweating. Had a nice espresso too after the meal, which was better than half of the espressos I've had in town. What the burrito lacked was made up for with friendliness from the girl working, so a 4* experience all around.

I gave them two stars and not one because people around us seemed happy about the dishes which also smelled and looked not too bad.

This tiny restaurant in Neukölln is the stuff that hipsters dream of: succulents and other plants galore, rustic decor, food served on wooden slabs instead of plates, long waits, and Instagram-worthy food. I'll admit to snapping a quick pic or two of my food before I dig in, but to my horror, one of the diners actually whipped out his DSLR and had a five-minute photoshoot with his meal before actually eating. So... yeah. You should know what to expect from Roamers before you get here. That being said, some of the obnoxiously hip clientele shouldn't put you off from visiting Roamers because the food is more than pretty good -- if you visit at a strategic time, of course. (Swing by on a weekday morning!) Immediately after walking in, I had the impression that the owner must be enamored with California -- the state flag, a license plate, and the plethora of succulents sort of gave it away. But there was an out-of-place Southwestern vibe that didn't quite jive with this Californian aesthetic. I asked the owner about it before I left and he revealed that he was inspired by Joshua Tree in Southern California. The food reflects this Californian/Wild West/Mexican aesthetic -- kale on kale, jalapeño cheese sandwiches, french toast, avocado toast, huevos rancheros, etc. I had the french toast, which was absolutely impeccable. Roamers really takes it up a notch with their interpretation of this classic breakfast dish: caramelized pear, berries, jam, and greek yogurt! At €8, it was worth every cent. And having complimentary tap water is definitely a plus because it's such a rarity in Berlin!

There was a great atmosphere, fun bartenders (none of the same from last, but that's the name of the game)l and the cocktails are still SO delicious!!! They have a lot of very good "takes" on mojito .. I can recommend both the "vojito" which a raspberry version of the original, and the golden mojito in which they add Moét.. Definitively with a visit, both in the summer and fall. Heads up, you're allowed to smoke here, which is good for some, but if that's not your thing, then only go when the weather allows you to sit outside.

And if the döner joints on every corner didn't tip me off, the fact that the burrito I got at Taquería Ta'Cabrón looked more like a döner or some sad wrap with a dollop of salsa on it definitely did. Maybe the quesadillas or margaritas are passable, but my burrito was so pathetically wrapped that I've sworn off a return visit. In other words, everyone knows that a burrito's ingredients should at least be completely enclosed inside the tortilla... or whatever inauthentic tortilla substitute you end up using. C'mon, Ta'Cabrón. No partial credit. Because of the poor construction, the ingredients were poorly distributed throughout the entire burrito and each bite was a bland surprise. At €7.20, it's a bit pricier than a burrito at Dolores, but I'd go to Dolores over Ta'Cabrón any day.

The service as well, really friendly. I am glad to my colleague took me here. Not a bad place to have a lunch.

It is with sadness that I write this update, because--as indicated by the four stars I gave this…read moreoriginally--I was a genuinely enthusiastic Powwow customer for years. As I mentioned in my original review, I recommended it because it was a great place for both vegetarians and meat-lovers to meet and eat, plus the food quality was decent too. For years, I regularly ordered the vegetarian quesadillia, which was filled with veggies, pan fried and served with a salad. I'm not a big eater so that fit my needs perfectly. For years, I genuinely looked forward to eating that meal; when discussing where to meet with a group of people, I often suggested coming to Powwow with the specific intention of eating that meal. I returned again last Sunday, and though the menu seemed to have changed somewhat--the quesedilla no longer included salad, but came with tortillia chips instead. I ordered it nonetheless, assuming that the quesedilla itself would still be the same pan-fried delight, with or without the salad. What I got instead was a floppy cold white tortilla filled with what appeared to be guacamole and sour cream, with some pico de gallo on the side and a few tortilla chips. The tortilla itself had not, as far as I could tell, been fried in any way, shape, or form. "What happened to the veggies?", I thought. "What happened to the quesedilla?" "What is this?" Needless to say, I was appalled. The food was only partially edible at best, and I left most of the floppy white flour tortilla on the plate. I was at a loss for what to say, and despite nearly 10 years in Germany, I still can't bring myself to reply to the question "Hat's geschmeckt" with a more honest "Nein, gar nicht". So instead, I just finished the meal to the best of my abilities, and vowed to leave the place as fast as humanly possible. It was just so awful. What made it all the worse for me is that the dinner was a kind of reward for helping a friend. I felt deeply disappointed by the whole experience. I will certainly hesitate before going back again. I am giving the place 2 stars in this updated review, however, were I not giving Powwow the benefit of the doubt, it would be getting 1 star from me now. I hope my experiences are not representative and that this was just a one-off problem. However, I cannot in good faith recommend this place, especially not to vegetarians.
