    Fried potatoes and sausage with curry sauce

    We stopped by Nante Eck because it was on the shady side of a main street, great for a cold beer on a hot summer day! We ordered their 2 offerings of Pilsner beer and 2 non-alcoholic beers. The drinks went down well with their sausage with curry and fried potatoes. Everything was delicious and made us feel like we were indeed in Berlin! Next time we will try their gelato offerings.

    I had seen this place online, but it was by luck that I happened to end up back on the street Unter den Linden around dinner time on Saturday in Berlin. I had just finished a 4 hour walking tour and while I was shopping for souvenirs, I was keeling an eye out for a place to sit. I was recognized the name of this place and saw that many people were seated in the tables outside, so I assumed it would be a good choice. I was greeted warmly and led to a clean table outside. Inside felt very fancy compared to the outdoor dining, which was fine with me. The bathrooms were also very clean. My waiter was very friendly and spoke english, which was very nice. He gave me a menu (which included english translations or a QR code for other languages), and left me to decide. I ordered an aperol spritz and the Charlottenburger Wurstparade, per my waiter's recommendation. Both choices were very good! I think the aperol spritz was a little expensive, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. My plate hit the spot after all the walking I did earlier. The steamed and grilled sausages were my favorite (the two smaller ones). I am assuming the larger sausage was the smoked option, explaining why it wasn't my favorite. The mashed potatoes paired well with the gravy, and you cannot go wrong with German saurkraut. My meal left me full, but not uncomfortably stuffed. Convienently located along one of the most famous streets in Berlin, about in the middle between the Brandenburg Gate and the Museum Island, this place is a great stop after a day of sightseeing. They have wifi for their patrons (just ask for the password), options for everyone, and even ice cream you can grab if you need a snack!

    Stopped for beer and appetizer. We ordered two pilsners, cold and good. Ordered the meat and cheese tray, great variety and more the the two of us could eat. Bread was crusty and great accompaniment. Waitress was very attentive. Pizzas we saw looked thin and crispy .

    A great food start to our visit We had just arrived at Berlin on holiday and after checking in at our hotel, went to the Brandenburg Gate. Very powerful. We headed back along Unter den Linden looking for a place to eat when we saw Nante Eck. We stopped in. We were greeted and shown to a table. There was a large but well-behaved dog at the table next to us that startled us for a second, a reminder we are not in the US today. Someone brought us menus with English descriptions. Nante Eck offers a good selection of dishes, including some traditional German dishes. I decided on Nantes Flettopf, or slices of pork fillet with mushrooms, onions, and mashed potatoes. It seemed to take some time but our food arrived. I thought the plating of my dish was nicely done with the meat and other items in a gravy and three stacks of the mashed potatoes. It also tasted very good, the meat tender for pork and I liked the brown gravy. There was also a small amount of slaw, which balanced the heaviness of the meat and potatoes. All in all an excellent dinner. Again, service seemed a little slow in the end, partly due to our inexperience with flagging people down. But while the meal itself ran longer than we wanted, it was very good and filling. We even picked up a slice of plum cake for later enjoyment at the hotel.

    I ate here with a large group of people (teachers from the U.S.) for our farewell dinner in Berlin. It was very easy to get here from the Ostbanhof train station and has a good location amongst shops. (None were open on Sunday though.) We were promptly seated and the waiters took our drink and entree orders. We had a set menu, which is convenient when you have large groups of people. Our appetizer was tomato soup. It was good, but not as good as Restuaration 1840's. I had vegetable lasagna. It was delicious, but a bit creamy and cheesy for me. Dessert was a crepe with berries. It would have tasted better with Nutella, but I gobbled it up. The restaurant was clean, servers were nice and patient, especially since we were a large group. You have to make sure you ask for "tap water" or they will bring out bottled, which ends up being expensive. (6 Euro for a large bottle!) Nante-Eck had a "Library/Newspaper" theme to it. There were books and printed papers as part of the decor. They do speak some English, but always ask first and try to speak as much German as possible. If I find myself in this neighborhood of Berlin, I'd return.

    When in Germany have to have some Weiner Schnitzel! This didn't disappoint! Cooked perfect, moist inside. Super tender. Yum. Instead of a salad I went with sauerkraut since the good stuff is hard to find. Finished sharing an apple strudel with fresh whipped cream and a side of vanilla ice cream. Add a couple Berliner Pilsners with outdoor seating, a fun waitress made a great first dinner in Berlin. Just down the street from the Brandenburg Gate. After a long day of travel this hit the spot and no problems sleeping after that meal!

    I was looking for a place to eat when I was on Unter den Linden in Berlin and this place caught my eye. There weren't too many eating establishments directly on that street and this one stood out and had a fair sized crowd inside. When I came in I was told I could have a table if I would be there less than an hour -- apparently they have a lot of reservations that take up their tables after 6 PM or so. I accepted the condition and got a nice table. They have a good menu with German dishes. I got a dish that had roasted pork fillets on a skewer served on a bed of potatoes and peppers. It was excellent, very hearty and filling. I had a large dark beer to go along with it. The total price was under 20 Euros. This was a very comfortable and relaxing place to have a meal with traditional german cuisine while visiting the main tourist area in Berlin. I highly recommend it!

    Awesome place! Food was delicious as well. The location is close to tourist destinations. Staff were very welcoming.

    Currywurst
    Ian D.

    This place clearly catered to tourists, and we were tourists. We had a bit of a wait for lunch, but not too long. Most of us ordered Currywurst and potato-cucumber salad. I'm assuming it was typical. It was tasty. It was my first introduction to Berlin restaurants not providing tap water. As an American who drinks a lot of water, it was somewhat inconvenient. I would recommend any tourist to eat lunch here to tick traditional German food off the list.

    Boulettenteller: breads with beef pate, cheese, mustards, pickles, and greens
    Jamie H.

    i came here on my first night in berlin since i really liked the traditional german ambiance and cozy booths. i was seated by the window and really liked the decor and style of the menu, it is drawn up as a mock newspaper with daily events that are actually the food listings. the waiter was very kind and patient with my limited german. based on the low prices and after having spent the past few weeks in spain, i thought it would be safe to order a few dishes for myself along with a big glass of wine. i was wrong about this, the portions are quite large and i had way too much food! just a word of caution for those with big eyes. i started with the pot of pickles, which was literally that. almost a full size jar with about 5 full sized pickles of various variety. i was only able to eat 1-2, but they were really good. i also got an appetizer called altberliner boulettenteller that was some breads with a pate, cheese, mustards, greens, and small pickles. again i thought this would just be 1-2 pieces of small bread, but it was in fact a whole plate with about 10 pieces. the mustard was the best i'd had in a long time, and really enjoyed the nutty bread. for my entree i tried the pork knuckle (schinkeneisbein) since i really wanted classic german food. it was so large that the gentleman behind me asked if i needed his help. despite the size, it was absolutely delicious. it was juicy with a great mix of both fatty and lean meats. the sauerkraut was perfectly complemntary, and while i tasted the mashed peas and potatoes i was at this point way too full to try to eat more than a taste.

    We had the Charlottenburg plate which was three different sausages and the cured pork knuckle which was so tender! We didn't like the sauerkraut as it was very salty. However, portions are big and price is good. Service is very slow. We went at 3pm and it was crowded.

    Fantastic local place to get some low-frills eats and beer! Very friendly staff who accommodated us…read morewithout a hitch. We came here after having been turned away by an Indonesian restaurant that was "full for the night". We are so glad that fate brought us here instead of that Indonesian restaurant!! What were we even thinking anyway -- forget the Indonesian food, get the local specialities!! Ordered the schnitzel as well as the meatballs and both were executed perfectly. Schnitzel was hot and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside -- not overly salty either. Meatballs were juicy and packed with flavor from the minced onions that they had mixed in. The beer (we ordered a Pilsner) was the best that we had tried in all of the Berlin and Dresden restaurants that we visited. I believe it is from some small private brewery affiliated with the restaurant somehow. Whatever they are doing, they are doing it right, so definitely order the house beer. Super cozy seating (you'll probably be sharing a table with other guests) and packed all night long but amazing vibes and casual comfort food. Would come back if I ever visit Berlin again!

We tried to go to a nearby Greek place but they were full and kind of rude too. We walked over here and the place was empty at 6:30 pm so a bit worried. No need.

    German food can be hard to find in Berlin…read more You can find German food at Prater Garten. Prater Garten has a double distinction. Outdoors, it has the oldest biergarten in Berlin. Indoors, it has an upscale German restaurant of distinction. The biergarten is not my style. If I am going to spend all day sitting outside drinking beer, I want the location to be outstandingly beautiful. Prater Garten's Plain Jane courtyard doesn't cut it. The indoor restaurant though is a different story. This is the traditional German restaurant of your dreams. The Gaststatte was the culinary peak experience of a month of serious Berlin eating. * * * Prater Gaststatte looks just the way you would expect a German restaurant to look. Dark woods. Wainscotting. Cream walls. The menu for both food and drink are limited, although they do change seasonally. This means that they make the same dishes over and over and over again. They have brought them to a high level of perfection. They only serve three beers at Prater Gaststatte, beers they brew themselves. I have no doubt those beers are wonderful. However, Prater Gaststatte had the Holy Grail of what I had come to Germany looking for Artisanal German Schnapps and Artisanal German Distilled Spirits. Bars in Berlin just don't carry those. Prater Gaststatte had a curated selection of six. (Actually a curated selection of five. The sixth item was a traditional Czech rarity.) Indiana Jones had just found his treasure. German Spirits are strong. Judiciousness limited my consumption to three. I went with a Nordhauser Doppelkorn, a Dirker Hasselnussgeist and a Stahl Birnenschnaps. Doppelkorn is a German alternative to vodka. It is 76 proof, just slightly weaker than a traditional vodka. It can be made from any of five different grains, but the rye-malt combo is the most common. The Nordhauser is an eminently superior alt-vodka - consummately smooth yet full of taste. I could have done a string of those happily. The Dirker and Stahl were both schnapps: hazelnut and pear respectively. I have never had a beverage like the hazelnut schnapps. It was not a liqueur. It was a strong brandy. Nothing sweet or cloying here. It was commanding like a brandy but smooth like the Doppelkorn. The hazelnut taste was overwhelming. It was as baritone and nutty as an Amaretto. An utterly unforgettable beverage. I stuck my neck out by going with a pear brandy. Most pear brandies are awful. I had had one and only one in my life that was good, the Finnish product Xante. Nothing is as good as Xante. Xante tastes like the canned pears served in heaven. But the Stahl Birenschnapps impressed. Nothing cloying. A real fresh pear taste. I was a very happy guy. * * * Note that although my beverages were outstanding, The food was even better. Given the quality of my distilled spirits, that last sentence is saying quite a lot. Never mind the strawberries I had for dessert. It is the beginning of strawberry season in Germany, And my meal had been so substantial that anything other than fruit would have been a crime. Spring is asparagus season in Germany. German restaurants will have one third to one half of all the dishes be asparagus dishes. I ate my fair share of mediocre asparagus dishes elsewhere in Berlin. The cream of asparagus soup at Prater Gaststatte is utterly to die for. Nothing tastes more like asparagus than that cream soup. And good cream soups are one of the fundamental pleasures of life. However, the headliner act which blew me away was their Brandenburger Pork Chop. A Brandenburger Pork Chop is a thick double-cut pork chop. The only way to get a "good" pork chop in the United States is to go to a steak house and pay steak house prices. American steak houses typically cheat by cooking it in apple juice so the pork chop gets caramelized. You eat well, but you are still covering up a ho-hum pork chop. This was a we-don't-have-to-hide-under-anything superlative pork chop. Yes there was about a tablespoon of red cabbage on top of the pork chop. It was like a maraschino cherry on top of a huge slab of meat. That pork chop had nothing to apologize for. It was a magnificent piece of meat. Easily a third of it was outer fat - outer fat that had been broiled to perfection. The pork chop fat was the star ballerina. The pork chop meat was the male dancer holding up that ballerina in a romantic pas-de-deux. It was the absolutely perfect pairing. (Anyone who uses that pork chop and ballet to make a joke about "Swine Lake" will be thrown off Yelp permanently.) Suffice it to say, I liked the meat course. Accompanying that was the potatoes au gratin of your dreams, And the green beans with bacon of your dreams. I never wanted to wake up. * * * If you come to Berlin, Come to Prater. Skip the Biergarten. Eat at the Restaurant. Deutscheland, Deutscheland Uber Alles!

    Just noting that as of this review the hours are incorrect on Yelp so better check the website…read morebefore you go. It opens at noon, not 6pm on Saturdays.

Walking in the door gives you the feeling of dining in a Bavarian beer hall where there are plenty of locals enjoying the atmosphere.

The veal schnitzel and steak entrees were also delicious. My server spoke little English, so knowledge of German would be a plus if dining here.

Inside, the design leans toward a hybrid of a traditional German restaurant and modern luxury: dark woods, crisp table settings, and ambient lighting create an upscale but comfortable atmosphere suitable for all occasions ranging from date nights, celebratory dinners, or refined travel meals. The general vibe feels more sophisticated than casual tourist spots, with a bustling (yet not overwhelming) ambiance. Patrons range from international tourists to locals grabbing a drink after work, and a cosmopolitan mix of languages echoes throughout the space. After a 4-hour walking tour of Berlin, our group of eight was hungry for a hearty German meal. The same morning, we made a reservation for our party of 8 for 6:30pm later that night, and we appreciated the fact that the reservation process for large parties is easy and convenient. Additionally, When we arrived at the restaurant, we were immediately seated at a large table, and our waiter kindly directed us to a QR code with a translated English menu complete with pictures. The menu itself is extensive, with a range of options (from the more familiar pretzels and schnitzel to German classics like Pork Knuckle and Munich Bratwurst). Our server was charismatic and friendly, joking with us and guiding us through his favorites on the menu. When it came time to order, he asked us if we could order in the dishes' real German names (which we subsequently butchered), and he graciously corrected our pronunciation and explained any questions we had about some of the more traditional items. Some members of our party ordered their Ofenwarme Brezn mit Fassbutter (Pretzel with Warm Butter, €3,90): a generously-sized pillowy pretzel, generously salted and served with a creamy knob of decadent butter. For my entree, I selected the Halbe Haxe (€17.80), which is a half portion of crispy pork knuckle with Bavarian sauerkraut and a bread dumpling. For being a half portion, this dish was absolutely huge (with the bone, the knuckle was almost the size of my head!). The exterior skin had been wonderfully crisped up, almost like a German chicharron, whereas the interior was a mix of shreddable "pulled-pork"-like meat marbled with succulent fat, all served atop a rich, savory gravy. The Bavarian sauerkraut had a slight tang to contrast the decadence of the dish, and the bread dumpling was dense, yet soaked up the gravy perfectly. This was the tastiest dish I sampled during my time in Berlin, and certainly a great value as well. From asking my friends, other great plates included their Saftiger Schweinsbraten vom Schopf (€19.90 - a roast pork dish with bread dumplings, potato dumplings, gravy, and Bavarian sauerkraut; very similar to the Halbe Haxe but with what seemed like pork loin), 3 ECHTE Kalbsfleischpflanzer (€21.40 - three succulent veal meatballs with mashed potatoes, gravy, and buttered onions), and Handgeschabte Käsespätzle (€17.40 - homemade cheese noodles with mountain cheese and pear, topped with fried onions and served with a side salad; basically a bougee Bavarian mac and cheese, and a great vegetarian option). Two members of our party also ordered their Ausgezogener Apfelstrudel (€8.60), which was a sumptuous apple strudel with perfectly al-dente apples, flaky pastry, and warming spices, served with ice cream and a caramel-like sauce. In terms of price point, Maximilians sits in the moderate to premium range for Berlin restaurants: obviously pricier than your average beer hall or currywurst stand, but fitting for its polished service, urban location, elevated cuisine (with huge portions, might I add), as well as its large audience of tourists. If you're ever in the area, I would highly recommend Maximilians, and I'll certainly be back to sample some of their other colossal dishes!
