West Berlin

I have been going here since 2017. It has always been affordable with good food, and an amazing selection of beer. My favorite is the Steigle Grapefruit raddler. I will dearly miss this place as it was where I had friends meet other friends and made good memories. I even had my first beer here. Condolences to the Owner passing away, and thank you for the wonderful memories in life, and for growing with me and my friends. Their bratwurst was made in house, their saurkraut balls are amazing, and the rhamschnitzel is my go-to.

I love German food, and can be a bit picky when it comes to my Jager Schnitzel... But I would come back here again for all of my German cravings! Portions are great and the quality is top tier. Spaetzel was tasty and crisped a little, which I wasn't expecting but hit very nicely. Also had the potato appetizer and also tried the rouladen and would get all of it again. Nice selection of German and Belgian beers on tap and in bottles and reasonable prices on everything too (including the beers!). Location is convenient if of a main road and the interior decor feels very public house and transports you a little closer to a German experience. If you like German food, or just want to try it, give this place a shot!

My daughter and I came here a while ago and absolutely loved everything we had. I think my absolute favorite was the Rotkohl, I could eat it every day 🤤 Our hearts are breaking 💔 that you will be closing as we just discovered this place not that long ago 🥺 We wish everyone the best, and maybe by some miracle the doors don't close.

Love the atmosphere! No seasoning on anything. Lack of flavor in general. Wine and beer are delicious. Price is affordable and would go back with some hot sauce.

My wife and I both ordered the Rinderbrust Roll. I had crinkled cut fries, and she had the potato salad for a side. It was a hearty and flavourful meal. The pretzel bread bun was perfect. The horse radish dip for the beef was outstandingly good. The tomatoes on the sandwich were fresh, too. The crinkled cut fries were served hot, and I especially enjoyed the German potato salad. West Berlin was an excellent dinner with courteous staff and a well-kept dining room. Next time we are in Anchorage, we will dine in again!

My friend and I dined here tonight, and unfortunately, my experience fell short of expectations. I ordered the beef brisket with mashed potatoes and a salad, but I was disappointed to find the brisket excessively chewy and nearly inedible. My friend even tried a bite and had to spit it out. When I informed the waitress about the issue, she merely asked if we wanted a to-go box, despite the fact that none of the meat was missing from my plate when she removed it. To my surprise, I was charged full price for the meal. On a positive note, my friend ordered the pork special, which was tender and delicious, highlighting the potential for good dishes at this restaurant. Having worked in the food and beverage industry myself, I would have approached the situation differently. The waitress could have offered an alternative dish or adjusted the bill to reflect the uneaten brisket, perhaps charging me only for the sides. Regrettably, based on this experience, I don’t plan to return. If you decide to visit, I would recommend avoiding the brisket, as there may be better options on the menu.

Went Saturday just when they opened. Ordered a pretzel for an appetizer with beer cheese and mustard. First of all pretzel was microwaved and chewy. Not afresh pretzel and dis not have any salt. The beer cheese sauce was thin and had no flavor at all. I did like the mustard but so disappointing not a fresh pretzel. I ordered the spaetzel, cabbage and apples, and rouladen. . I have never seen spaetzel like that in my life, not like the typical pasta, soft and tender rather fettuccini like strips that i think were pan fried some were brown and hard. I just looked at pictures of other reviews and mine clearly did not look like that. It was probably heated up browned old spaetzle. I just remembered i took some home that was leftover and took a picture, clearly not fresh. The cabbage and apples has zero flavor. The rouladen was ok but just ok. The waitress was terrible she took my order and then asked if i would like a box, not friendly at all or welcoming. She actually accused the older lady of keeping a fridge open in front of everyone. She has no social grace. I. usually always tip but when you sit at the table as long as i did 10% was way too much for her!!

When we first arrive there was a table ahead of us and it was only the lady as a server. The place got busy right after. After we got our order in the food came out fast and fresh. If you’re not a sauerkraut lover like me and you eat the sauerkraut balls, they don’t taste like sauerkraut. I was surprised. Pretzel was fluffy and a good shareable size. Pretty yummy with the honey mustard. I got the brisket and it was delicious, I did have one meat that was mostly fat that I couldn’t eat it but it was delicious and was pretty full anyways. The establishment is clean and open.

Love this place. Busier at lunch vs dinner, but always accommodating and no line. The schnitzel just satisfies. Some say it's not as good as home-cooked, well, sometimes I like it when others cook for me and everything comes out hot at the same time! The house made pretzels with beer cheese, schnitzel w/gravy (no mushrooms) with sides of just spätzle or spätzle and fries for the kids is so simple and comforting. The currywurst is also delicious, we get it without the sauce or on the side since it is a curried ketchup and a bit strong for children. Beers are delicious, they have Fruh Kolsch and a Ayinger Brau-Weiss on tap in 250ml, 500ml, or 1L steins. Wasn't a fan of cable TV news playing constantly but oh well. Highly recommend for the food and beer.

Food was piping hot this time! We came about 7pm on Saturday night and scored their very last pretzel. Then they were out and couldn't make the pretzel sandwiches. I got the chicken Jaegerschnitzel with Spaetzle and mashed potato's. Next time I want to try the potato salad. I couldn't find the grapefruit German beer I wanted, but I didn't ask about it either.

Food: 7/10. It was warm but came out reaaaallly quickly and wasn't HOT so I have to wonder how fresh it really was. Service: 2/10. The server was brash. One person in our small party asked if something could be without mustard. The server said "absolutely not, it's already in there and the cooks are not going to undo all of their work for that. It's unreasonable." A bit of a harsh explanation for someone who has never had German food. Ambiance: 7/10. It was cute and there were a lot of different flags, although when we went in we were the only people in there so I couldn't say much about the atmosphere.

Took my husband here on a date night after having a positive experience about 9 months prior. This time the food was awful and hardly edible! We got the soft pretzel with beer cheese as an appetizer. It was the frozen kind you can get from Costco and the cheese was super grainy and almost chunky and not tasty. We shared the rouladen which sounded great! Beef rolls with bacon and pickles. The beef was tough, dried out and completely over salted. The only good thing was the gravy. We got the spatzele noodles on the side which was drenched in oil and tasteless. The potato salad was awful, cold, but drenched in the gravy which made it inedible as well. Overall we barely touched the food and will not be coming back.

Came in around 5 or 6, the decor is cool, and the serving staff were super nice. I could've used some music to add some energy to the place, it felt very quiet. Menu had cool options, I got the Kessler and was a bit disappointed. No flavor and the potato salad was not what I was expecting. Cool beer options which were fun.

Awesome food and service. We got the meatballs and schnitzel. Definitely coming back again soon.

Hefty, delicious food for a great price. Sauerkraut meatballs are delicate and moist, brisket nice and tender, and strudel as a sweet finish. The sandwich was a tad big and definitely needs that aioli to not feel too chokey with the fried meat and bread, but still tasty and with a large serving of fries! The beers and friendly staff are fantastic as well. Will definitely be back, with a completely empty stomach prepared.

This place is a gem! The ambiance is festive with German culture/flags, etc. The service was great, attentive, nice & suggestive. The food was flavorful and tasted so fresh! I will definitely be back!

Wow what a great little place hidden in Mountain View. Just happened to be on that side of town for some meetings and used Yelp to find a place for lunch. The food here is fantastic. Proper temp seasoned well Authentic. The lady who served us has a great sense of humor she was prompt and kept our water full. Looks like they have a great selection of beer especially German but since we had to go back to work, we had to stick to water.

If you're looking for something new to eat, this would be an excellent place. It has a home cooked meal feel to it. Different flavors and hearty taste. Great comfort food option I think. I thought the pork schnitzel was a little on the dry side. Even with gravy, it was a little chewy despite of how thin it was. I also hoped that the cabbages were a little more thinly sliced. The server lady was very efficient and quick in getting order which I liked. The food came out very quick too. Good to have its own parking lot. I might return if I'm craving some comfort food but overall it was not my favorite restaurant. You might like it though!

Wonderful lunch today - great service with one of the nicest folks we've ever come across (Hollie). She was prompt to great us, super friendly and offered great suggestions about the different menus items. We tried the Rahmschnitzel and Jaegerschnitzel with the spaetzle and rotkohi as sides. Came out quite quickly - hot and fresh and absolutely delicious. We even got a nice sample of the soup of the day, which was hearty and perfect for a cold afternoon. We really enjoyed our visit and look back to returning to this very unique neighborhood gem.

If I could 4.5 star rate West Berlin, I would. Service was nothing to complain about. The restaurant was fairly quiet when we went. The beers we ordered were good and so was the food. I would eat there again if I could.

What a surprise treat this place is! Basically everything is house-made, from the aioli to the breads. The restaurant inside really felt like we were transported to Germany or what I imagine it would be like anyway. Hubby and I really enjoyed the food. Service was good too. Give them a try.

If you want wonderful German food, this is the place to go. We try to go at least once every six weeks, our family from the valley comes in and has a meal with us. My mother-in-law is German so we always know that this will be a pleasant experience for her. Last time we were, there was a week ago. We had so many of the appetizers that we couldn't resist, that it was hard to find stomach room for our Rahmschnitzel and Jagerschnitzel that we had. But taking it home for the next day always works for us.

I was really disappointed in the food here. The Schnitzel was very thin almost like Milanesa, the gravy's (Rahm and Jäger) had little flavor and the Rotkohl was sour and under cooked. Sadly the prices were very high too. The service was good and the restaurant itself clean and inviting.

Yum and yum! We stopped in for a quick lunch and West Berlin totally hit the spot! The service was great and very attentive! I ordered the Jaegerschnitzel, it was sooooo good! The mushroom sauce and the perfectly cooked meat were spot on! The spaetzle was the ideal side for this dish. I tried the potato salad too, but it was more German and I guess I'm forever stuck in how my Polish grandma made it. I think next time I'll double up on the spaetzle! Great meal, great location, great service!

We just returned from three months in Germany where we had so much good German food and beer. This place is excellent and the food is great and authentic. They have five draft beer selections of real German Beer. I highly recommend it. I ate here twice this week and had the Jaegerchnitzel and Brot plate both were excellent.

Came here for an earlier dinner (5-530ish) with a party of 8. Note that if your group is large, they ask that you make a reservation in advance to accommodate large groups. They did seat us without one, but I wouldn't expect this every time. Tables are spaced out far apart for covid social distancing. I don't eat German very often so take this review with a grain of salt. I ordered the Rahmschnitzel with potato salad and mashed potatoes. The pork was tender with a nice crunchy outside drenched in a sauce that was to drool over (I love a good cream sauce). Regretfully so, I should've doubled up on the mashed potatoes - so creamy. The potato salad was a bit sour for my liking.

Great food! Great service! Lots of authentic items to choose from- we had a variety of dishes and sides and all were amazing. The best sauerkraut I've ever had.

Great food, reasonable prices. If you want a taste like home, go to West Berlin. There were three of us which all ordered different meals. Everyone enjoyed their meal immensely.

The food was pretty good. Appetizer of saukraut meatballs were good. The potato pancakes were good as well. I ordered the Wiener schnitzel with a mushroom gravy on the side. The pork Wiener schnitzel was not at all tender and could have used pounding it thinner to tenderize it more. My husband had the brisket with gravy and it was excellent. The service was good. The Octoberfest Beer was terrific. A fun night

Service was really good and the German food was surprisingly good. But if your thing is German beer, West Berlin is your place. A superb selection both in draft and bottle. Always pleased to have a Ayinger Celebrator (highest rated beer in the world). Try it if you like dark beer

I got to go back more! I have been here many times with my family and it's always a German Food Haven which is kick butt comfort food! Schnitzel Love! Today I let hubby get his Rahmschitzel which we shared with my five day marinated Saeurbraten Special! So good both! The place is a little dated but so is the food! It goes back to German food love which is an original! Beer only! German Beer no complaintes! Uh EVER!

Haven't heard of this place before but I'm glad Alaska had some different regions of food. Pretty wonderful service, also a great place to sit and have a beer. Came over because I heard they had some wonderful pretzels. They are pretty heavy pretzels, you could order it for your main meal. The ones I got didn't seem as fresh as others. The mustard and beer cheese that came with them are amazing! You defiantly have to try. Although the food seems a bit bland the beer list is amazing! If I could go anywhere to drink a beer it seems like West Berlin would be a great place for a nice German style beer! Will be coming back for more beer and pretzels!

I really like German food. First time here and it was a great experience. The brisket in gravy was really good with the side of horseradish sauce. The pork schnitzel on bun was delicious. The lemon aioli, gravy, buns for the burgers, breads, Apple strudel, everything is made in house. Well, except the fries. Worth going to give a second, third, fourth, fifth's try.

Sadly there's a lack of Western European cuisine in Anchorage. So when I know or hear of one I will go out of my way...even across town to Mountain View...to try it. This was my second time at West Berlin and once again I am surprised with how many open tables there are around me. Given the quality of the food, price, and collection of German beers it strikes me as peculiar. The inside is designed like the family running it is straight from Deutschland but in fact it is a successful Hawaiian restauranteur. Even though the place was not busy, service could have been better...but this could have been their "busy" night. I had the Jaegerschnitzel, which is what I got the first time going and since I'm a believer in the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" saying, I was relieved when it was equally as good as last time. I don't usually splurge on dessert but the Apfelstrudel sounded too good to pass up. It wasn't anything I couldn't make at home but when in Berlin... -HH

Very delicious and authentic German food with friendly staff. Very good craft beers as well

As a tradition for our Anniversary we pick a restaurant we have never been too, so on that note living in Alaska 50+ years it can be hard to find. We drove to Mt View to visit West Berlin & actually drove around the building because there wasn't any other vehicles around. We stopped & noticed a person going in to get dinner pick up so we decided to venture in. We walked in & were greeted by Michelle & seated. Not ever going to a German restaurant we really didn't know what to order but the menu explains the dishes very well. They have 4 German beers on tap, my husband ordered a hef ( can't remember the name) but he liked it, I ordered the radler which has a grapefruit taste which was yummy. We then decided on our choices for dinner I ordered Rahmschnitzel which was fantastic (breaded pork steak w gravy) & 2 sides to choose from. My husband picked Rinderbrust (brisket with a side of horseradish sauce) & again 2 sides to pick. The dinners was fantastic & enough for my lunch today. Prices are very reasonable & the food was fantastic. This place is busy with people coming in to pick up dinner during our time here. We will be adding West Berlin to our rotation of places to eat at!

Amazing service and food. Schweinbraten and jagerschnitzel were full of flavor and presented beautifully. Spaetzel,Rothohl, and mash were great addition to the meal. You gotta try the deep fried sauerkraut balls(sauerkraut, rotisserie pork loin and vegetables with honey mustard sauce!)

I was super excited to hear there was a German restaurant in Anchorage. West Berlin takes a big swing at the concept, but doesn't really connect. The food isn't bad, just not very authentic. I realize this sounds unfair for an American restaurant and maybe a bit snobby, but other German restaurants stateside can pull it off, so I wish West Berlin had as well. I tried a variety of dishes, to include the schnitzel wiener art, currywurst, jaegerschnitzel, potato salad, mashed potatoes, spatzle, and fries. The dishes are filling and you won't leave hungry. The German beer selection in both draft and bottle were above average for the US let alone Anchorage. On the day I visited, there was only one server, who was clearly overwhelmed. If you've got a craving for German food, West Berlin may fill this hole for you, so long as you temper your expectations.

Good German, good service, and a clean and pleasant restaurant. We tagged along with friends for dinner and learned of this place. The food was authentic German food. The menu had the German names with the English description. Beer menu rotates selections and there was a decent variety to choose from. I had pork jägerschnitzel with spätzle and German potato salad. Decent sized portions were just as described and cooked exactly as I would have expected. We'll be back to try more off the menu. This is a good, solid German food restaurant.

I've been to Germany many times so when my wife suggested West Berlin for dinner I was excited. We arrived and found the place to be a small spot with maybe a dozen tables. Low lights and native music playing, the mood was set for a good meal. The wife and I both ordered the schnitzel with sides and the kid had the schnitzel sandwich with fries. We found the chicken schnitzel to be gristly and having pieces of fat, the meat obviously wasn't trimmed before preparing. The breading had decent flavor but there were parts where the breading was too thick and became gross. The kraut didn't have a good flavor at all. I did enjoy the beer but that's hat we went there for. One thing that I didn't like is when they brought the food over the guys bare fingers were touching my food. Unacceptable. I had high hopes for a good German joint but this isn't it.

I've been wanting to try this place for about a year and we finally got the opportunity and remember to try it out! Our waitress was so kind and was easy to talk to. I would probably come back just because of her. The food on the other hand was nothing to write home about. The pork cutlet was nice and crispy but all of the sides were underwhelming. I LOVE German food but it felt like everything was really under seasoned and the spätzle had an odd texture/taste to it. I would probably come back and try it again but the food wasn't awesome when we tried it.

Every time I've eaten here I'm impressed with the quality of the food and the overall attentiveness of the staff. The atmosphere reminds me of the German restaurants I visited as a kid and makes me feel at home when I walk in. I'm going to miss this restaurant when I move out of Alaska.

My wife is a breast-feeding mother and she was told to cover up for decency. She was wearing a top made for nursing so that no skin was showing. But after taking our order the server asked if we had a blanket to cover her up so that it wasn't inappropriate for the other guests that were seated 3 tables away. She walked away and the impression we got was either cover up, stop, or leave. We cancelled our order and left without making a fuss. But we wanted to let other people know that West Berlin is not nursing friendly. Refer to AS29.25.080 for the legalities of breastfeeding. Cliff notes; it is perfectly fine to breastfeed in public so long as you have the legal right to be in that place.

Food was great, service was great, beer is great! I have nothing but good things to say about this establishment.

Genuinely both a surprise and a treat. I've spent my life going to Germany with my mom every holiday and was unable to this year due to COVID, luckily my boyfriend suggested we come here and it was absolutely heartwarming. The food was phenomenal and the women worked up front were so kind. I got the Rahmschnitzel, my boyfriend got the classed Jagerschnitzel and we both left over the moon happy with our meals. The Rahm sauce is next level good for cream sauce lovers, I would put it over everything personally, and in the future plan to ask for extra. Everything was done well, classic German schnitzel and sides, and if you like that style food this restaurant is a cant miss for you. Will be returning many times in the future! Customer for life!

Ok so I have never been to Europe. I am not German . And I am not going to pretend to be a subject matter expert when it comes to Authentic German cuisine - but I do know good food when I eat it and I LOVE the food here !!!!! I ordered a to go meal for lunch. It was Amazing! It was spotless in the restaurant, the lady named Holly that was working the counter was so nice! The food was a 5star experience and the people I saw eating there and leaving were happy and seemed to be enjoying everything . The prices are good the portions are good and I am looking forward to coming back and trying other things. I think I've finally found my favorite lunch place in Anchorage!!

I had ordered lunch from this place a couple of times for pickup in the last couple of months and I have enjoyed each dish I tried. West Berlin is located in Mountain View at the corner of Mountain View Dr. and N. Park St. Like I had mentioned in my previous review, this restaurant is not exactly located in the best part of town, but that doesn't deter a lot of the working regulars and military personnel from the base nearby to pack this place for lunch. The dining area has a distinct European vibe to it with memorabilia on the walls that gives the impression that World Cup soccer fans would come here on a regular basis. The employees here are super friendly and I make sure to tip them generously before I leave. My most recent visit had me ordering the Rinderbrust (a beef brisket plate covered with gravy and a side of horseradish sauce) along with two sides. I chose the Rotkohl (red cabbage with spices) that had a taste of apple to it which was very delicious and their Sauerkraut. The beef brisket was tender and flavorful with the gravy. The horseradish was an excellent addition and some of the best I've had recently. I would request this as an order by itself if I was having prime rib for dinner. The Currywurst (two pork sausages topped with curry ketchup) on a previous visit was also outstanding. They also have this available as a Berlin Street Special with fries for a dollar less instead of an entree. The menu itself has a good selection of Bavarian cuisine including the Kasseler (pork loin brined in spices and smoked with hickory chips), the Rahmschnitzel (a breaded chicken or pork cutlet with a paprika cream sauce consisting of mushrooms and onions, garnished with lemon and parsley), and the Sauerkraut Balls (sauerkraut and breaded ground pork served with honey mustard sauce). Specials for lunch and dinner are displayed on a daily basis by the counter. This is another local business to support with a versatile menu and great people.

Cute little place. It wasn't very busy when we went, though it was a weekday. Service was prompt, but almost too much so; our main courses came out before we had gotten through half the appetizer. The schnitzels were both good, but I found the gravy for the Jaeger schnitzel a bit salty. Sadly, the spaetzel was disappointing- it appeared to be precooked and reheated. They weren't crispy at all and came out blazing hot (a tell tale clue that they'd been microwaved. For something so simple to make, they really should be made fresh.

Absolute treasure of a find in Anchorage, AK. Authentic German food in a snowy back drop. Schnitzel was outstanding, Spätzle was fresh...Red Cabbage was OK...the Beer was awesome. Service was friendly and efficient! Great restaurant with a neat German feel. Recommend in a heart beat! Prost!

Today was my first time visiting West Berlin restaurant, located in mountainview. Located at the corner of mountainview drive and north park st. First impressions walking in: clean, spacious, and lots of natural light. I was impressed off the bat by the tap list, featuring no domestic beers, all German/Bavarian brews. They do offer some local brews, but they are in a can/bottle. I had a Bavarian Pilsner, which is delicious in a bottle as I will have at home, but here on tap it is sooo much better. I had the bratwurst special and my friend had the Rahmschnitzel. Honestly everything tasted amazing, service was friendly, quick and concise, and the food came out quickly, as did the beers. Prices were very fair for food and beer, and much cheaper than popular local restaurants. If I was debating between trying something new (West Berlin) and going to the usual spot (Joe Schmoes) I would choose West Berlin. Did I mention it was nice and quiet here too?

Had friends in town and I asked where they want to have lunch out today and they said they wanted to go to West Berlin well I was skeptical at first but wow what a great food great atmosphere great selection of German beers I wanna go back there tomorrow and have lunch again All the food is homemade and made to perfection pia try the specials thank you for a great service and a wonderful lunch I'll see you soon

Disclaimer, I've never been to Germany so I don't know if this is truly authentic or not, but I loved it! From the cheesy cardboard decorations hanging around the restaurant to the perfect cold rainy day hearty food. I got the pork schnitzel with the mushroom gravy, scalloped potatoes, and red cabbage with a small pour German hefe on draft. Everything was great. The pork schnitzel reminded me a lot of country fried steak/chicken and the gravy wasn't too salty. The scalloped potatoes are not how we think of them. They are scalloped in shape but are cold, tender, and marinated in vinegar. The purple cabbage was also cold with hints of apple cider, but they were not sweet, nor bitter. I would definitely recommend and will be back!

Various schnitzels to close as well as other German type foods and libations The location is in Mt View but the windows are frosted so outside is not a distraction and they have a dedicated parking lot. Basic eatery with cement floors but we enjoy our meals there.

Yummy Schnitzel and Spätzle. Good place for some German food.. I love the Rahm gravy..

We were the only people in here when we arrived around 12:30 on a Saturday. It's cold out, so maybe less people are willing to venture out. This is my first visit. The menu is limited, but I can appreciate that as sometimes it can be overwhelming to pick something. While the sauerkraut balls sounded amazing, no one else at my table likes it so I decided against ordering it. The currywurst also sounded good, but it seemed a heavy portion. I decided to get the Schnitzel Sandwich and German potato salad. When ordering I was put off by the waitress. My aunt had ordered and there was a lull, so I decided to say my order when I was gruffly interrupted by the waitress telling me it's not my turn and that my aunt needed to pick her two sides. OK, I understand that, but she also didn't ask my aunt what her two sides were so with the silence I thought it was an indicator that we were done with my aunt. My aunt asked for soup as a side which she stated she would pay the up charge. That then lead the waitress off on a tangent about some "idiot" let it happen as a side one day even though soup is not listed as a side and now because of that "idiot" customers expect it. I think she repeated "idiot" a good five times to us. My aunt still said again it was fine she would pay an up charge. Then we were told that it's fine she won't charge her because of said "idiot" from the past. This was our first visit, we weren't expecting anything as far as special treatment. We just wanted to try a new cuisine. That being said everyone seemed to enjoy their meal. My schnitzel was fine. There was a lot of onion that I picked off, but it was fine. Definitely a knife and fork sandwich. The pretzel bun was very delicious. I liked the aioli they served on the side. I wasn't a fan of the potato salad. It seemed the potatoes weren't cooked enough or something, but whatever it was I wasn't a fan. I tried my aunts spaetzle as it's new to me. It was interesting and is essentially a fried rivel type dumpling. I may come back to try the other two options I was interested in, but I wouldn't go out of my way to go again.

I went here quite some months ago. It seemed like they were out of a lot of their items, which is the only reason I gave 4 stars. Other than that the food is delicious.

West Berlin tasted like having prime rib for breakfast. The vegetable soup is so homade delicious it almost made me cry. So authentic family business
