A friend living in Berlin for 12 years had a list of Italian restaurants recommended to her from…read morefriends who are from Italy, and this was one of them. Located near Checkpoint Charlie in the center of Berlin, this very, very small but lovely little Italian restaurant makes amazing, authentic food. If you know a little German it will help you here. If you are a local or can get a reservation, that also would help. Otherwise it might be packed. We got the last table available when we came in. We had the Calamari Fritto app special, which was one of the all time best calamari we've ever had anywhere. We also had the Spaghetti con Gamberetti, which was excellent but could use more aggressive seasoning. People in Germany clearly don't like a lot of seasoning. I had the Penne con manzo e funghi stagionali, which was truly excellent. All the pasta was fresh, all the flavors authentic and appreciated. The only thing weird at all Italian restaurants is this spread they give you which I can only describe as sour cream and chives potato chip dip. I don't get it, but whatever. It's not like you get charged for it. Anyway, if you're in Berlin, put this place on your must try list and go!

This is a 4.5. Loved it. Started with well made Hugo spritz. Then got bread and olive oil- could…read morehave eaten that for dinner. Had brie with honey and walnut app. Maybe a little bland but still tasty. I had the pasta with broccoli and walnuts in gargonzola sauce. It was awesome; still craving that sauce. My daughter had the gnocchi and thought is was good not great. Loved the service and family feel. They were so nice. Definitely going back.

Well, you are in Bad Saarow after all, and Amiceria was recommended by two locals. The atmosphere…read moreis alright enough, so is the food, though the service, a mix of East German charm with a Frankenstein assistant thrown in for good measure, might torpedo the place. Not that there are many other options in town, though we heard several people speak well of "AS." Come with patience to Amiceria and good humor and all will be ok.

We went for the the antipasti plate and it really was delicious. I loved their vegetables and the fish selection was very good as well.

A pleasant Mediterranean island in Berlin. Great staff, peaceful location, gigantic portions (even…read moreif unlikely to be fresh) with rich tastes. The real attraction of this place is the staff. I haven't checked but they come across as Italians who lived in Germany for some time, offering us a warm welcome and a professional, pleasant service throughout dinner, while speaking a combination of Italian and German (with a good command of English). Their honest recommendations and attention throughout the evening have been of the highest quality. We had two main dishes from the specials menu: (1) sea food (scallops and giant shrimps) with black pasta, covered with a rich and heavy cream. The pasta was good, but a little on the over-cooked end of the spectrum. The sea food itself was good. (2) The other dish was pasta with cheese and truffles: prepared right in front of us with much showmanship (see the photos). My friend was satisfied with the taste. The restaurant is located in the middle of what seems to be a residential area. It was practically empty. The menu is long and diverse so the likelihood of the ingredients being fresh, locally sourced daily from nearby farms fields is pretty low. The portions are massive (think US-sized) using lots of cream - which makes the experience a test for your stomach capacity, less a test for your taste buds.
