    Meyan, outside
    Sun-Rabbit Q.

    I used to love Berlin a lot but since I left it and moved to a dreamlike cutest little city in South Germany I don't miss it too much. I don't miss it unless I come to visit it and discover treasures like Meyan. This little cafe opened recently (guys, why didn't you open it two years ago as I lived just around the corner???) in a street where every second entrance leads you to a nice bar, cafe or a restaurant. Still if I would walk down this street now and then I would go there and only there. Imagine the combination of three factors: LOVE, TASTE and CREATIVITY, and you get an approximate description of Meyan, which by the way means liquorice. LOVE stands for the interior design, delicately oriental and elegantly urban at the same time. You can't oversee that every single thing has been selected, no, chosen with love. There is something old, and something new, and something handmade, all together creating an absolute harmony. East meets West, personal meets urban, vintage meets modern. TASTE stands for the yummy food, so fine and spicy at the same time, accompanied by a black tea in narrow-waisted Turk glasses or a nice glass of wine. CREATIVITY comes from people that run the place, open, friendly and authentic. You come in, you greet them, you chat, you feel welcome... What can I say more? Just go there and see for yourself. And if you like it as much as I do, you can take one little bit of Meyan home: just buy a colourful oriental bowl or a handmade soap. The second would support a women project in Turkey. Good for your hands, good for your inwit.

    Yes....! There's really not much to say about Meyan, because in total honesty, what do you say about a place that seemingly has it all? I was looking for a vegan/vegetarian-friendly place to accommodate my special out of town guest, and Meyan more than delivered. The ambiance of the hole in the wall is beyond special. The colorful plates, eclectic cushions, and bright flowers create a cheery and joyful environment, which very well complements the nature of the food--the flavors are bright and bold, yet fresh and surprisingly light! We ordered the chicken salad, the hot eggplant signature dish, and 3 small sides of beetroot hummus, baba ganouj, and a carrot walnut spread. Needless to say, we were hungry. The chicken was battered with sesame seeds and, despite being fried, was extremely light and fragrant! The seeds paired beautifully with the slightly-sweet-yet-slightly-acidic housemade dressing. A beautiful salad that was beautifully portioned, dressed, and seasoned! Hurrah! The eggplant in the signature hot dish was sautéed with onions, tomatoes, paprika, and olive oil... A flavor bomb if you can imagine one... Deliciously satisfying and again, very well portioned. This dish, I believe, also came with a basket of house made bread! Put the words home made and bread together, and you can definitely count me in every single time. However, the star of the show? The spreads. If you can, try them all. I haven't had a bad time with one... If your stomach or resources are limited, here are my suggestions: If you like beetroot, the hummus is a must! Slightly sweeter than your classic chickpea hummus, this spread was divine on the nuttier bread! Speaking of divine, the carrot-walnut spread came in close as the overall favorite. It was slightly sweet, yet savory, and immensely texturally satisfying with the carrot and walnut chunks. The baba ganouj was your standard. With that being said, however, the standard at Meyan is set exceptionally high. It's quality. Meets quantity... The best of both worlds, really. There's really not much more to say... If you don't believe me, definitely swing on by to check it out for yourself!

    Wanted to sample some Turkish cuisine while here in Berlin. Absolutely wonderful. Our server Joycelyn was a sweet heart. Hummus hit the spot. Baba ganouj was okay but I don't care for it normally so can't complain. We over ordered as usual. Kafta was great. The dolmas were tasty and some sort of stuffed pasta was wonderful. Please give it a try. Caution the kitchen closes about a half hour before the restaurant closing but they accommodates us.

    Their breakfast is excellent if you looking for good Turkish breakfast that fulfils and satisfies you. Everything was good and served hot and tasty! Only thing was they didn't have Turkish bread to complete the 5 star notch

    Mutter... The name alone has that feeling of homeliness about it, but you would be wrong in this…read morecase to assume it refers to the German word for 'mother'. Rather in this case it means 'Nut' as in Nut and Bolts or as I see it, the Nut that keeps my screwy personality in balance... keeping me fed and watered is not a job to be undertaken by the weak and faint hearted! Like a Nut it has many sides to its personality ... During the day Mutter serves as a café where you can enjoy a nice breakfast, one of the lunchtime specials on offer or a simple coffee and slice of cake. Sometimes I have lunch meetings here because there are plenty of nice quiet corners to set up shop in, especially if you need to get connected to the interweb! This is a bit like a home from home for me. The place is bright and airy with plenty of areas to choose from. Inside there is a main dining area upstairs with its own bar, the principle bar is situated downstairs and separated by a smaller area at the entrance of Mutter. From the Main Bar you can access the main outdoor seating area which in winter becomes tented complete with heaters. A little lounge area can also be found outside on the other side of mutter, nice to just hang with friends in the sun, shaded areas are also provided. In the evening it transforms itself into a lively bar and bustling restaurant noted for its Thai cuisine. The food is excellent especially for those who like their food sssssssssssspicy, perfect to extinguish with a nice cold beer or a tasty cocktail. My go to dish here is the Beef Pad Kee Mao, a Chinese influenced spicy fried rice noodle dish, aka 'Drunken noodles'... perfect to serve in a bar! For an alternative I might have the Beef Krapao Nua sab, a stir fried beef in chilli and basil dish served with steamed rice or the Pad Prik Suii, Beef in a thick spicy pepper sauce. But my all-time favourite is the Pad Kee Mao. Also available to go ;) Other tasty things on the menu include: Gaeng Pet Ped Jangt (a roast duck with red curry), Gaeng Pet Gai (chicken coconut red curry) served in a pineapple or a nice juicy papaya salad. Sometimes you might find a tender roast beef on the daily specials menu, also good. Prices are fair considering the quality and the portions. The Staff are very friendly and helpful! During major Sporting events, Mutter provides screens inside and out so you can watch matches live whilst enjoying a nice cool beer amongst a friendly local and international crowd... rewind to World Cup 2010... only England supporter in bar full of Germans apart from the Irish guy who was obviously also supporting Germany! What can I say...I survived...but then we did loose and there was that awkward moment when it seemed I was the only voice to be heard when England scored its only goal! Heavens this review might have taken a different turn had England won! By the way Mutter is also a great location for private functions and parties complete with DJs that will make you want to dance until all hours of the morning, well at least until the Ordungsamt arrive!

    I don't usually leave a bad review but I've just had the worst experience ever at a restaurant,…read moreespecially as an American tourist traveling in Berlin. Please save yourself and do NOT come here First the food isn't Thai food. My dish has a soup called hot and sour Thai soup but it's actually the hot and sour Chinese soup. The beef with vegetable dish was extremely salty and was very hard to eat and it was not either a Thai dish, it was a Chinese dish. I order a lunch special dish (7.90 euro) which includes an ice cream or pan cake dessert so I asked the waitress if I could replace it with hot tea instead - she agreed under my impression but when the bill came out they charged me 3 euros for the tea. I just said I thought she agreed to it, so why they charged me and she started screaming at me like insanity! You can't believe how rude she was. She could have told me it was a misunderstanding and I'd probably be fine, but instead she started yelling at me. What a freaking rude waitress. Please stay away from this restaurant and not eat here. Everything is bad, both food & service.

The good thing is, though, is that they also have a full-lowuor selection bar and is open til late at night (used to operate 24/7, but after COVID, they more or less changed to serving til 10 or 11Pm instead). The menu itself is a breakfast affair, with a variety of pancakes/sweet breakfast to yummy things like eggs Benedict varieties. I had Tower of Babylon, which was on a light side. But, having that with sourdough...it makes me feel so full that I couldn't really try some sweets/desserts as I initially hoped for. The place was busy and at times seemed understaffed. However, the staff was nice and polite. The bartender even gave me a cocktail drink on him, knowing it would take a little while for me to get my food the day I stopped by. The tower of Babylon that I ordered was perfect sized actually. It wasn't heavy and I felt great and not sluggish as I would normally feel with other breakfast foods after the meals. Check this place out during the breakfast/day time if you are looking for a trendy brunch spots..but the night/evening times offers a lill more intimate/swanky version of this dining place as well!
