We are in love with this restaurant! Living in Alsace, France, this is the best French restaurant outside France in the lovely quiet Dutch quarter! Better than many in Alsace and Paris! Amazing taste, aesthetic, great choice, wines, too! Great service, attentive, cordial, helpful (with my wheelchair). Don't miss it when you are in Berlin or Potsdam!

Sat outside in the amazing winter garden area at the back. Lovely atmosphere and service. They came with an amazing olive tapanade and bread with our aperitifs. First course was the fois gras perfectly prepared.....followed by an amazing steak tartare...maybe the best I have had outside France! A number of set menus to choose from to fit any taste. This place is highly recommended. A bit pricier than others, but for my tastes.....well worth it!

Fantastic food in wonderful garden in Potsdam. The soup was extraordinary with a flavourful broth and lots of white fish. Foie Gras was worthy of France. Steak tartar was good. Main course of tagliatelle with mushrooms was perfect too. We chose a well priced Alsace Pinot Blanc and it went beautifully with all the dishes. Nice wine list. Prices were right for the caliber of food and service.

Welcoming staff, especially high-energy waiter and a delightful meal with a nice outdoor seating area.

Very friendly service in a cosy environment. The starters and main courses were very good, the deserts not so much (we didn’t really appreciate the chocolate in them). The prices are indeed pretty steep compared to other restaurants, even though the quality is good. There is a very nice garden in the back and a wintergarden as well attached to it (that’s where we sat), unfortunately when even only one person smokes in the garden (as was the case when we were there) everybody enjoys along :(

Colour (Race) unfriendly! They ruined my night! I am writing this while sitting right in the restaurant. Am standing write at the counter asking the waiter (Sven Richter), if I would get a reservation for one, and the waiter shows me with his head towards unset table ,( the pictures attached )being am a patient person I asked him again, still , he points with his head towards the place he showed me earlier meanwhile a paar (two white ladies) comes with no reservations too and he shows them other direction where other white are sitting! I got no patience called the waitress and asked her why was I given the seat where am the only person of colour, whereas others are put on the other side, moreover I was dining on my own expense! after sitting for a while, the female waitress comes to pick my order I ask her if my table can be sett she goes and brings the serviette and the knife and a🍴 then puts them on the table, while I was still waiting for my order I could see them chit chatting with a glance towards me then laughing! I got furious look at them then the lady stop and moves aside , I even got afraid to eat my food!

Love it here! It's a little slice of France that I plan to enjoy again and again! The wine selection is great, the food natural, authentic and of course delicious. What more could I ask for?!

Made a reservation for our anniversary dinner while visiting family in Potsdam. Requested outdoor seating. As we walked up we were skeptical of what that would mean. All fears were immediately alleviated as we were shown to the courtyard in the back. Absolutely beautiful. The service was on point and the food was spectacular. Did one of the set menus and couldn’t have been happier. If we ever get a chance to make it back to Potsdam this will definitely be a stop again. Thank you.

Wonderful dinner when in town for business! I had delicious pumpkin soup, an amazing lamb with autumn vegetables & lentils, and a great glass of wine. Server was amazing - anticipated every need. Would recommend highly!!

I have been here many times: with my husband, visiting friends, alone. Never have I been disappointed: real French fare, large or small meals, always delicious. If you are not that hungry, try one of their tartes flambee, excellent! And bring some time, there is no rush, neither in the kitchen nor with the service, so you should also slow down and enjoy this Bistro-style restaurant in the heart of the Dutch quater in Potsdam. By the way, it was here where they shot the Amsterdam scenes of " Homeland"!

My wife and I cannot come to Potsdam without stopping here for a delightful French meal. The fish soup can be ordered as take-out. A classic tarte flambée and cidre are a great light combination but there is a three-course menu with a bottle of wine on days when you just want to reward yourself. Intimate atmosphere and nice service.
