Maroush is a tiny restaurant offering an affordable menu of casual Lebanese food. The Maroush…read morePlatter came with literally some of everything they offered: kofta (ground beef kebab), shish taouk (chicken kebab), makanik (Lebanese beef sausage), chicken shawarma carved from a rotating spit, fried vegetables (eggplant, cauliflower, zucchini, fries), falafel, halloumi, tabbouleh, grape leaves stuffed with rice, salad, pickles, hummus, toum, and spicy chili sauce, along with two rounds of pita. Everything was drizzled with tahini, which added an unctuous, earthy flavor to every bite, and while everything on the platter was delicious, I especially liked the flavors added by the toum and chili sauce. The seating here was extremely limited, but the value and the flavors of the food definitely made up for the lack of atmosphere!

And everything else was average ok. Not outstanding but also not bad. There are better spots in Berlin for sure. The service ... there is no service lol. It's all about go in, eat and leave. As native berliner I guess all the good ratings come from the fact that this is a pretty touristy spot and got a lot of online attention to get that hyped. Taste wise, it's not worth just coming for this spot!

Everything in the platter was delicious, but the falafel in particular was out of this world!!! It was so different from the falafels I'm used to. It's crunchy on the outside. And these falafels are HUGE! My friend lives in Berlin and this is her favorite place to eat. Come here if you have the chance, you won't regret it.

I think my review is probably going to be redundant. After…read morethe full star reviews and the wonderful photos, what does a true Yelper do? Locate the place and order the most recommended dish. Al-Andalos is located in the busy part of Neukölln, right on Sonnenallee. On a Saturday night at 10 p.m., it was full to the rim. No seats, stressed out staff, people fight for seats and the spot in the line to get the delicious food. We ordered the Al-Andalos platter for two (meat) for 11 EUR, which comes with an entire package of Arabic/Lebanese bread. We were barely able to finish the entire plate, there are many tasty things on this plate and even my companion that night, who is generally not so quickly to impress, admitted that it was probably the best he has eaten in a long time. Fresh, tasty, large portions and fair prices. Staff is super friendly and attentive! I think I will have to drive out to Neukölln more often!

Order at the counter, wait for your number to be called and voila: enjoy your Shish Taouk plate piled with juicy chicken pieces, a small salad, pickled veggies and accompaniments and a hummus so creamy you'd want to slather it all over yourself. The presentation is very rustic and I love that it filled me up for an affordable price. Sit outside on one of the benches and people watch: you might even see an Adonis walk by.

Restaurant Phoenicia is a place of contrasts. On the inside is a high-end, classy dining room…read morefeaturing white tablecloths and live music. And on the outside are a bunch of tables occupied by hookah smokers. But the one feature common throughout the restaurant were the delicious plates of Lebanese food going to all the different tables. My favorite part of any Lebanese meal are the mezze dishes. Forget the kebabs and mains--I prefer making a meal just out of these delicious dips and starters! So it was perfect that Phoenicia offered two different mezze mix plates--one with 8 cold mezzes, one with 8 warm mezzes. On the cold plate came tabbouleh (parsley salad), waraq enab (rice wrapped in grape leaves), hummus, muhammara, makdous (eggplant cured in oil), moussaka (eggplant cooked with tomato), hindbeh (cooked dandelion greens) topped with fried onions, and pickled cucumbers/radishes. The warm plate came with fattoush salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumbers, radishes, peppers, pita chips), makanek (Lebanese sausages), jawaneh dajaj (chicken wings), toum (creamy garlic spread), falafels with tahini, and three different kinds of filled pastries (sambousek): ground lamb, spinach, and my favorite, two feta cheese rolls. Every item on both of the mezze plates was fresh and delicious, and the dips went especially nicely with the rounds of freshly-baked pita bread that came on the side!
