A friend living in Berlin for 12 years had a list of Italian restaurants recommended to her from…read morefriends who are from Italy, and this was one of them. Located near Checkpoint Charlie in the center of Berlin, this very, very small but lovely little Italian restaurant makes amazing, authentic food. If you know a little German it will help you here. If you are a local or can get a reservation, that also would help. Otherwise it might be packed. We got the last table available when we came in. We had the Calamari Fritto app special, which was one of the all time best calamari we've ever had anywhere. We also had the Spaghetti con Gamberetti, which was excellent but could use more aggressive seasoning. People in Germany clearly don't like a lot of seasoning. I had the Penne con manzo e funghi stagionali, which was truly excellent. All the pasta was fresh, all the flavors authentic and appreciated. The only thing weird at all Italian restaurants is this spread they give you which I can only describe as sour cream and chives potato chip dip. I don't get it, but whatever. It's not like you get charged for it. Anyway, if you're in Berlin, put this place on your must try list and go!

Solid experience in many ways…read more Salads are amazing Pastas are over the top - try the osso bucco pockets Carpaccio is wonderful Cute ambiance Owner operated and as such the service is spot on Give it a try Not too many tourists - more locals

Sehr schönes Lokal, tolles Essen, nette Bedienung, alles empfehlenswert!! Mein Sohn, der eigentlich…read moresehr wenig isst, hat eine ganze Margherita Pizza gegessen! Das sei nicht, dass die Pizza klein war, der Kellner, hat gefragt, ob die Pizza klein gemacht sollte für die Kleinen, oder normal. Nach Verzögerung, haben wir normal gesagt, Gott sei Dank, denn der kleine hat alles aufgegessen!! Pacherri für die Frau war ganz zu Frieden, und Pasta für mich auch, der nicht immer so gerne Nudelgerichte bestellt, denn die Italienische Frau kocht das so oft, war einfach köstlich! Weiter so noidue, kann nur weiter empfehlen!!

Tomato soup was just ok…read more Could have been from a can. Sorry if that insults but that was my initial reaction. Too salty, nothing special and nothing close to what I know comes out of many Italian places here. I've had better in a corporate chain. Bruschetta was good, not the best but better than many. Caprese was quite good - even the tomatoes, which makes the above all the more bothersome. Very good service and vibe. Should have gone the pasta route - saw two dishes & both looked A+.

This restaurant is exactly what you want when you live nearby. It is also worth it, when a little…read morelonger drive is included, because the food, service and design is simply fantastic. The menu is oversee-able and contains high quality and an absolutely fair price. The service is perfect and we asked for a blanket for our dog, and it was there in a second. The stay was filled with enjoyment and I can recommend this restaurant 100%. (I just doesn't have pizza, but the nice atmosphere and people make up for that!)

Fucking wow pizza. Extremely cheap, and one of the bests in Berlin…read more Pity that it's not that near to the city centre or where I work.... I'd go there otherwise every single day!

I don't know how anyone could give this place less than 5 stars; if I could give it 6, I would…read more First: the food is absolutely delightful. There are tons of options, including many vegetarian ones, and I have yet to try a dish that wasn't beautifully made, with balanced, light flavors. There are lots of beans, lentils, vegetables, yogurt-based sauces, olives, cheeses, stews, bread, tea, three or four variety of starchs--rice, couscous, bulgur, etc-, burek, fried stuff, baked stuff, boiled stuff.... Sometimes, if I need to eat one meal in a day, I'll go here. Second: the people that work here come from various places--Turkey, Lebanon, Germany, Cuba...ALL of them (that I've met) are friendly, generous, and welcoming (and patient as I point at the different foods to pile my plate with!). The atmosphere of the restaurant is awesome: a clean, simple yet warm vibe, classical music playing, and a back room where you can look onto the back yard. Third: you are getting ALL of this for either 7 or 9 Euro. I come from NYC, where one can easily--and in fact often does--pay twice that amount for food half as good. SUPPORT places like this, that offer lovingly made, healthy, delicious food for good prices....this is my favorite restaurant BY FAR in the neighborhood, and there are many other good ones here. I've brought about 4 friends here and all of them have been blown away...one even told me the next day, "dude, I can't stop thinking about that restaurant!".

This quaint family owned…read morerestaurant/catering service offers a great value of a large, all you can fit, Mediterranean food for €9.50 (or small plate for €8). I was quite amazed at how much food could fit on one plate! The service was amazing & such heart-felt. I would recommend this place to anyone! Although bear in mind there is not a whole lot of space to sit.
