I was surprised to discover this place, something that happened when a friend suggested we meet…read morehere for our regular study date. I showed up not expecting much, to be honest. However inside it was cozy, although perhaps not all the seating is the most comfortable. There is a menu with drinks, desserts, and meals as well. Surprisingly, many of the dishes were vegetarian and even vegan, and all of them were labeled appropriately on the menu. Unfortunately the cakes themselves didn't seem to be vegan, so I settled for a hot drink instead. What makes this cafe a step above any other cafe, however, is the bookstore. In a room upstairs and a few downstairs, as well as on the patio area, are thousands of used books. Each one costs only €1. So you can browse while you sip your drink, or pick up a little something to enjoy while sitting in the cafe. Or you can just get a few books to go. Any way you slice it, the idea is pretty great. I ended up buying 7 books... My only real complaint is that they have WiFi but it's not set up properly to work with Macs... at least I am assuming that is the case, as my friend got it to work on her computer, and others with PCs also were using it, but it was not compatible with my computer (which, by the way, worked fine an hour later using wireless elsewhere). So needless to say, I didn't get much accomplished in the way of work. Still, I would recommend book lovers check Cafe Tasso out.

This week I decided to visit for the first time, since I was really hungry&lazy and was looking for a place nearby. And i'm so happy I did. The food is amazingly good (I went there 3 days in a row and every day ordered a different dish, each one was better than the last one), the prices are fair, and the staff is super friendly. I will definitely come back again.

My husband and I love this bistro. Adjacent is one of the best patisserie in town. We have been…read morecoming here for years for their mousse chocolat and fruit tarts. French pastries are intense and flavorful, rather than sweet and heavy like their German and American counterparts. Then we discovered the Bauernfrühstuck (farmer's breakfast).- lightly browned potato cooked with egg and bacon and served with seasonal salad topped by a delicately tart dressing and 2 pickle halves. The dish comes with my favorite(!) - baguette with butter from Normandy. I normally never eat white bread or butter, but these are so good that I wolf them down like I'm never going to have them again. The portions are generous and they will gladly bring you more baguette to soak up the rest of the butter. And all this for €7.90. Afterwards, go next door and get some of the best cakes you will ever eat to bring home. Life can hardly get better than this :o)

The food is extremely greasy and makes me sick to my stomach, so I stopped eating it; I just got coffee. Now the service has gotten so bad I don't want to come back. If you are looking for polite friendly service, this is not the place for you. The black girl that works is very nice, everyone else is not. The old lady always gives me very dirty looks every time I come in and they never smile. Berlin is a Servicewürste but this place is worse. Beware, don't come here!

I had the onion bread with early wine that was similar to the early wine we had in the Czech Republic. Refreshing and light--more bubbly grape juice-like than a viscous Gewurztraminer and not nearly as sweet. The onion bread was a perfect companion to the wine. They had salads as well as traditional German food but nothing overly heavy. There was a full case of wonderful desserts as well. Seating was available inside and out. The garden was beautiful as was the shop with a great selection of wine available to take. It was different than most German restaurants we had been to (except for Factory Girl in Berlin) and a pleasure to mix healthy with heavy.
