    Das gute!!!
    Jason N.

    It is true, this casual, very reasonably priced Bavarian place has made the English guidebooks for sure. Yet on a cold January evening, we found ourselves to be the only apparent tourists in a packed to capacity house. The modern farmhouse aesthetic with blond wood tables is lovely. The beer selection is awesome. Just go down the list and order 2 or 3 during your evening to sample the lot. I was not disappointed with any. The standouts of the food were the pretzel with spicy mustard, (which puts NYC iterations to absolute shame) and the goopy potato-cucumber salad that accompanied the wurst platter was simply outstanding. The salad with pumpkinseed oil and apple cider was refreshing. The sausages were relatively average and the leek and potato gratin (think vegetarian lasagna) was merely ok. We arrived on the late side so our first choices of soup and entree were no longer available as night's supply was exhausted. The host is absolutely charming, the barmaid a bit gruff, and the waitresses pleasant. We were made comfortable to linger as long as we wanted. Our bill, with two entrees, a couple pretzels, a salad and four beers, came to a mere 46 euro before tip. Make a reservation ahead of time to ensure a spot without a wait, and go on the earlier side so that what might look most appealing to you on the menu will not have sold out for the evening.

    Wiener Schnitzel (small)

    Excellent Wiener Schnitzel (organic veal) and top-notch service. A classy place to chill with a beer and a nice meal . The potato and cucumber dish that accompanied the schnitzel was also fantastic. I order the small schnitzel and my husband ordered the large. The bread provided with our beers was fresh and hot with a lovely herb spread. Table service was extremely attentive and efficient.

    One good german restaurant!

    High quality german cuisine with a good beer selection and great service. The prices are high the food is worth it.

    I am vegetarian and enjoyed the Mushroom dumplings, vegetable strudel, a salad, and Bavarian cream with cherries.

    The food was very fresh and delicious but the service was spectacular. The menus are in both German…read moreand English and every server speaks English, they were also very helpful navigating the menu. Must haves are the Farmers ham with grated horseradish and pickles as an appetizer. The pumpkin soup was amazing with a hint of curry and the main course was the Wiener schnitzel was the star of the experience. The accompanying potato salad was incredibly delicious as well. Overall a great Austrian dining experience, I highly recommend eating here.

    4.5 stars! Ottenthal was one of the restaurants I discovered while in Berlin. In particular, what…read morecaught my attention was the fact that it offered, by far, the best schnitzel in Berlin! So, given I was in Germany..and even though I never really dream of eating schnitzel days and nights, I had to stop by this place! I particularly liked that the restaurant offered pretty much very natural/no chemicals food. Everything was fresh and, shall I say, natural/organic...and they were committed to those types of ingredients. I also liked that despite a higher price point than most restaurants in Berlin, the staff were polite, friendly and relatable..and not a stucked up place at all! Now, when it came to the food, I loved all my dishes! The pumpkin soup was so fresh and Devine! The schnitzel..wow..shall I say, crisp and thin..and not oily at all! Eating it together with the side potato salad that was a lil sour and sweet made it a good combination without additional condiments for sure! Lastly, the Baumkuchen was wonderful! I had so much food that night that I ended up having to order Baumkuchen to go..and I was not disappointed at all! Good to try all the good things while in Berlin! Overall, I highly recommend Ottenthal! Sure, as the name suggested, Ottenthal is Austrian town..but hey..schnitzel can also be German! Go try it and you'd taste the differences between this vs other places! Just some minor half star off was due to price (it's slightly high compared to other options out there in Berlin for sure.but hey..tasted sehr gut!!), restrooms are down a set of stairs (pretty common for German restaurants..but I have no ideas how Germany deals with accessibility for disabled population!) and finally..the place is rather small..so make sure to make some reservations so you won't be disappointed if you showed up but couldn't get in!
