It was the Turkish farmers breakfast. It consisted of cucumbers, feta, tomatoes, boiled egg, cheese, tzatziki, sausage, honey & butter & a bun. All very colourful & all very tasty! It was SO ENJOYABLE to eat too!! Highly recommend from me!

I opted for the "veg fruhstuck" (vegetarian breakfast) for 5,50 euro and was presented with an amazing spread! Two types of cream cheese-type spreads, two types of cheese (one feta like, one sliced), marmalade, cucumbers, tomatoes, boiled egg, olives (flavor bomb) and fluffy bread. For 5,50 euro this breakfast is a steal, I'll definitely come back for dinner!

Osteria Tressanti is the new name for Esse Osteria. The owners say they changed the name to go…read morealong with the change in concept: less chef-based, more classic. They slimmed the menu down to make it a little more rustic and now make food-stall appearances at some Berlin markets. Summary: The food is still excellent along with a small but very good wine selection, mostly Italian. The ambience is friendly neighborhood spot. I hadn't visited here in a while for three reasons: the pandemic, I don't live a block away like I used to, and the last time I came I got annoyed after sitting outside for a while and not getting served. I still find the service here... off-key. The people are nice but what is the deal with the service? In Germany the normal procedure is to signal the server that you want to pay, rather than the server bringing the bill to the table as in North America. At Osteria Tressanti are we supposed to flag down a server to order as well? After sitting down and being given a menu, I waited almost 30 minutes before my order was taken. The restaurant was not busy at all. I didn't receive the still water I ordered. Although a loaf of bread sat on a cutting board along with some baskets, I was not offered bread with olive oil, as you usually are at Italian restaurants. I *might* have ordered dessert and coffee with encouragement, but not a word about it. (The decor seems a tad rundown in the light, but maybe that is purposeful, a rustic charm?) That's not to say I was annoyed - the guys are really personable. They speak Italian, German, and English. When I said I wasn't sure on my wine order, the man gave me a few good samples to choose from so I could take my pick. I got a very tasty Amuse-Bouche with walnuts and creamy sauce. The Lasagna Classico, Carbonara, Tagliatelle alla Bolognese and Gnocchi stand out. So, I am still on Team Osteria Tressanti, and will keep coming back for the terrific food, Italian wine and the neighborhood vibe.

On wandering in we stood for a few minutes before a waiter came to show us to a table - he was abrupt and not very friendly. Our waiter poured a full bottle of wine into our three glasses ensuring an unequal amount was poured for each person! When we placed our food orders he interrupted us constantly, almost telling one of our party what pizza she should order! The pizzas were served very quickly but I found my olive and mushroom pizza a bit bland so added seasoning, olive oil and balsamic. One of my dining companions did not get a pizza topping she had ordered. All in our party of three were slightly disappointed by the food in Pomodori. In my opinion a 2.5 star experience - I wouldn't rush back...
