Ausspanne - Berlin

Really good food and nice atmosphere. Could recommend if you want to have good steak with reasonable price.

We stayed at the hotel Kastanienhof of which the restaurant is a part. We had dinner outdoors twice during our stay and the food and service were both excellent. Our waiter and bartender treated us very well.

This is a casual, friendly restaurant of what I suppose one would call the "fine dining" variety. The cuisine is modern German, which means German classics done with modern touches. Their Wiener Schnitzel has an airy, savoury crust, nearly perfect. We had a little amuse-bouche of soup (I think it was lentil), whose texture and taste were delicate and creamy. For dessert I had a sort of Kaiserschmarn, revisited, with blueberries: excellent. Nice wines by the glass as well. Charming waiter.

This is a cute little bar, clean and with good decor. We felt the beer selection a little limited however what we did have we good. The only niggle was the back ground music they were playing, only stayed in the bar for two drinks as the music was really irritating.

We found this bar last year and when we returned to Berlin we alway's knew we would be going back to this wonderful bar as it was so good on our last visit.You walk in this bar and your are struck by how good this bar is,great decor,exposed brickwork,cool beer ephamera plastered all over the bar,furnished to a high quality with great comfortable seating and great staff plus free quick wi-fi make this a must go destination if your in the area.We sat outside on this visit as we were not going to have a meal as we had ate previously but we ordered a nice iced cold BERLINER KINDLE and this was just perfect to chill out and plan the rest of the day out.This place is very popular both with tourist's and local's and can get full ,it was only mid afternoon when we visited but this bar was already very busy.We got the attention of the staff and ordered one more beer ,this time we opted for a darker beer my twin brother and i both enjoy,namely MARKESCHER LANDMANN BEER again served in perfect condition and really tasty.We had a very pleasant hour or so here and will again return on our next trip to Berlin in August.Very easy to locate,jump tram T12 or M1 down to ZIONSKIRCHPLATZ walk down KASTANIENALLEE were you will find this bar.Opening hour's are:Monday to Sunday,2.30pm till 10.30pm.Great bar and well worth a visit.
