We were pretty much done with Eisten or currywurst after being here for a week. Very warm lobby with all open doors. No outside seating so we sat inside next to bar area. The services were very prompt. We chose a goat cheese salad and mushroom pasta. Both dishes exceeded our expectation. Salad was mixed great with walnut and cheese and dressing was light with nice honey taste. very refreshing and tasty. Pasta was nice creamy mushroom sauce with diced beef. Yummy. Price were very reasonable and waiters were very friendly.

Everything on the menu is really affordable and I ordered the funghi pizza, which is about €6. My only issue with the pizza was that it needed a more generous glaze of oil or butter on the crust, along with some more tomato sauce because the pizza was a tad dry. I also ordered the tiramisu for dessert and the consistency and texture of this tiramisu reminded me of the ones from Italy. The spoon would easily sink into the dessert and you could see the decadent layers with each bite. However, I do prefer my tiramisu to have a more prominent coffee flavor, but this one tasted more chocolatey like the Nestle hot cocoa mix. To sum it up, if you're craving Italian food and in the area, I would give this place a chance!

Fine Italian dining at its best! And yes, in Berlin…read more I enjoyed a late lunch here. I had walked past the restaurant on numerous occasions in the evenings when it is rather crowded. They offer seating both outdoors and indoors. I opted to dine outdoors. Nice atmosphere. The waiter spoke German, Italian, and English. He was professional and efficient. Complimentary warm, fresh bread and olives were served first. I ordered a Latte Macchiato and the Spaghetti Aglio Olio. The spaghetti was perfectly cooked, al dente. It was simple, not loaded with many ingredients, just garlic, roasted red peppers, Parmesan, and olive oil. Delicious. Reminiscing makes my mouth water. It was a pleasant expensive.

Located just down the street from the Brandonburg Gate, this restaurant is easily accessible. They have nice interior seating Plus, they have a very large patio with a lot of tables. What this restaurant offers is, as mentioned, a traditional Italian cuisine. From this, you have a lot of choices: pasta, pizza, and the like. They also have a full bar, plus a good selection of wine, and beer. Plus, all of the expected soft drinks. The food here is prepared fairly well. There's really nothing to complain about in terms of the overall presentation and/or flavor. On a lighter note, our server seem to be pretty grumpy the last time we were there. More than once he would step away from his tables and move out into the front of the restaurant to have a smoke. Then, he would reluctantly come back to take care of his duties. But, nonetheless, he got his job done. Overall, if you want some pretty good Italian food in Berlin, this may be the place for you

While I tried to not let my "American-ness" show by asking for ranch, I did toss on some of the chili oil and Tabasco they had readily available to give the Pizza a little extra kick.

Three of us, all Americans, ended up at Andy's Diner late night on our recent trip to Berlin…read more(September 30, 2010) and were all pleasantly surprised. We were all annoyingly drunk and craving pizza. The bartender was very tolerant of us and even helped us to properly order our pizzas. There were other patrons in there who were obviously annoyed with us, but the bartender kept his cool with us and made the end to our evening quite pleasant!!! The pizza is delicious!!! I ordered cheese and peperoni which the bartender quickly informed me was not what I thought it was and that it would be big banana peppers with cheese...I decided to give it a try anyway and very glad I did!!! All of us thoroughly enjoyed our pizzas!!! I would recommend Andy's Diner to anyone looking for some quick and filling food while visiting Berlin!!!

For…read morebeing in the middle of Potsdamer Platz, you would expect more than 10 people during lunch hour... I assume the only customers were tourists who forgot to check Yelp. Obviously local Berliners and savvy tourists avoid this place. Bad service. This was the main problem. We sat down and the server quickly brought us their dinner menus. Not a problem if it was 8pm, but a little too early for lunchtime! We asked him about lunch menus, and the look on his face was priceless. Obviously they don't like people to order from their lunch menus during lunch! After some back and forth, we finally got the lunch menu. We quickly decided on what we wanted, but the waiter disappeared for 10 minutes... This is Berlin, so not an abnormal thing. When he came back, we ordered and everything seemed okay. Cappuccino + Pizza. I almost fell out of my chair when the waiter brought my pizza and cappuccino together. If he thought I was thirsty, maybe he should have asked if I wanted a drink? I'm wondering if this is a normal thing at this restaurant... Don't ask for spicy oil! I was still reeling from the surprise of the pizza cappuccino when I tried to order some spicy oil for my pizza. The waiter argued with us that the pizza was already spicy enough and did not need anything else. After some more back and forth, he grudgingly brought some spicy oil! Don't ask for water! In the middle of all this chaos, I tried to order some sparkling water. This was the breaking point! The waiter said he didn't have time for all of our questions and that we were not the only customers in the restaurant and stomped off!!! New waitress saves the day! After our waiter's meltdown, he disappeared and we suddenly had a waitress who was friendly and responsive. The rest of the meal was uneventful, exactly how I expect lunch at an Italian restaurant to be! Average food. Don't come to this restaurant if you're a foodie. It was bland, but that's completely expected for any restaurant in the middle of a tourist zone. I do have to say the cappuccino tasted good, but I don't recommend drinking it with your pizza! Nothing special. The atmosphere in the restaurant is nice (besides waiters who have temper tantrums!) and has a faux-posh feel to it. I recommend you sit in the terrace in the back. It's nice on a warm day and is next to a small pond. That's it. If you're looking for some excitement during your lunch, give this place a try. But if you're looking for a quiet meal with friendly service, go somewhere else!

I don't know how long they have offered vegan options, though it seems like the restaurant itself has been around a few years. But there are too menus: one for omnivores and one for veggies. It's somewhat nondescript in decor, but the restaurant has a lot of seating, and an "open" counter area where you can see your pizza dough being rolled out, toppings being added, and the final product placed in the oven. I've had the spinach pizza and also the mista...both were pretty good, though I think the first one I had was better (I was also a bit buzzed when I ate it, which made it irresistible to me). I also found that the pizzas are a bit salty, which is fine because I am a salt fanatic, but something worth noting. All in all, I don't think Zeus is THE BEST VEGAN PIZZA EVER, but if I am craving a bite and in the neighborhood, it certainly is a solid option.
