Recently ate the chicken in lemon sauce here. Large serving, which was alright, though not overly…read moreexciting, as the veg in the dish was a bit bland by virtue of being undercooked (although I may have too much of an "English" palate now and this is supposed to be the original and authentic experience). Service was quite good and knowledgeable. Free bread drizzled with olive oil as a starter is an added bonus. Most "unfortunately" however a minimum spend policy of €25 for *credit* cards (not sure about debit cards) only advertised on the menu, not on the door where all the decals are displayed. That leaves a bad, penny-pinching, "bait and switch"-ish aftertaste!

The food was fresh and tasty , the ambiance cosy, and the service very friendly and willing to speak English (I'm ashamed to say my German was very rusty, but they were gracious and offered English menus). My husband, who is the gluten-free one, had Mediterranean veg for a starter, a side salad and a wonderful sort of reverse-cheese burger (cheese inside a minced-beef patty) with fries.

I was underwhelmed and disappointed with the preparation of moussaka that was served cold - seemed to have been microwaved to warm it up a bit and then had grilled cheese on top. Also far too much pasta prepared for a 5 year old child in a huge bowl. Seemingly no half portion or child menu available. The other two meals were mearly "average". Shrug of shoulder when above comments were made when dining. Shame as it was a seemingly nice venue over the Christmas period. In my view, for what we had it was overpriced and not good value given the poor food served.

Staff were very very friendly and pleasant. I didn't get our servers name but he had smile on his face the whole time and he was very nice. We ordered The Ja! Niko Ja! - which was phenomenal and very generous serving. My brother in law enjoyed it very much. I ordered the Grilled Octopus - came with 2 big tentacles. It was grilled to perfection. It was very tender and flavorful! It was delicious! My sister ordered the steak & chicken kebab with rice. She also enjoyed her food and wasn't able to finish it because it was so much food. The salads that came with our meal were very fresh. The complimentary bread came out warm, soft in the inside and crunchy on the outside. We dipped them in olive oil and balsamic vinegar. It was sooo good! We asked for another basket of bread. :) Also, they came around and gave everyone in the restaurant free shots of alcohol. My sister and brother in law doesn't really drink so we gave ours away to the table behind us. Our server still asked if we wanted something else from the bar.. how nice is he?!? I said I didn't want anything strong, so he gave me something light and sweet. :) Service and food were excellent for us, so Im giving them a 5 Star!!! Would definitely recommend and come back!

The staff, even if sometimes a bit slow, is really friendly and always makes good suggestions and tell you what is on offer that day. The place is cozy and the atmosphere is the place is really friendly and it's almost always full. But it is of course the good food, we always come for. They have really good starters, we especially enjoy the taramas which is delicious. Pretty much all the main dishes we have tried so far were great. The meat is always fresh and really tender, fish was also always really tasty, the moussaka is really good, etc. In general we really enjoy returning here every time and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys greek cuisine.

As I don't speak German except for a few words it's nice when the restaurant staff can speak English. Well this place they don't really speak English so you got to have an idea about Greek food. They did have English menus. I was able to communicate a bit with help of the next table explaining if I wanted fried or steamed potatoes etc. I ordered the gyro with that tk???? Sauce forgot the spelling with a salad and French Fries. "They don't have pita bread I asked so I ended up with that bread they use for donor kabob places it's triangle and toasted I made a sandwich cause my dish came with just meat and fries. They do have a large menu but I didn't quite know what to order "next time I'll try something else" Anyway the owner lady "mama Greece"gave me a free shot of Greek liquor that kinda looks and tastes like vodka anyway after my meal they gave me another one for free again so good looking out mama Greece!

Wir waren mit drei Personen da und hatten unterschiedliche Essen. Eines war allen drei Essen gemeinsam: sie waren mit einer richtig centimeterdicken Schicht von Analogkäse überbacken. Das Fleisch darunter war total versalzen, der Rest überhaupt nicht gesalzen oder irgendwie gewürzt. Ich sollte Ofenkartoffeln bekommen, es gab aber kalte Salzkartoffeln, die schon bessere Tage gesehen hatten. Alles in allem die Feststellung, so schlecht habe ich noch beim Griechen gegessen. Mehr als 20 Euro für ein wirklich schlechtes Essen ist viel zu viel. Bei euch nie wieder. Mich würde interessieren, wer euch die Bewertungen mit vier oder fünf Punkten geschrieben hat.

After a long day of touring and shopping in Berlin we stumbled across Asteria and decided to give…read moreit a try based on the positive reviews. We arrived at 6/18:00 and took an outside table. The place was empty but we reminded ourselves that dinner starts a bit later here. We were greeted with a complimentary Ouzo shot (which continued to be refilled) & started with the Tarama. The dip came in 4 scoops and was pink. Although I've never seen pink Tarama, It wasn't the best Tarama that I've ever had and was okay. (But wouldn't order this one again) We also ordered Spanakopita which we enjoyed. For main, we had the "grilled meat for one"which was excellent (tasty grilled chicken, pork & Gyros!) but is really "Grilled meat for 2 or 3." We ended up sharing this which was a good idea as we couldn't finish it. After dinner, we received complimentary Cognac, espresso and dessert (fruit, yogurt) which was a nice touch and the restaurant was packed by the end of our meal. Overall, great service, food and atmosphere!

Not special in any way, simply grilled. Overall the dishes are large and greasy and heavy. 90% of the people here eat meat. The mussels appetizer we didn't really enjoy (personal preference). The appetizer plate allowed us to taste a bit from everything. What's good are the grilled eggplants and the white creamy dip (not tzaziki). Besides that I'd also recommend to skip the plate, everything else was ok. Why would I still give 4 stars? - The Service is very thoughtful! You get free shots and if you don't drink them, they have us espresso for free. You get fruits at the end. Just overall asteria seems to care about the experience their customers are having!
