Mommsen-Eck - Berlin

There was a certain expectation of cultural adjustment to a more German mentality in dining and drinking. The most striking of which being the menu's lack of English. Added to that was a characteristically German stand-offishness, which was best remedied by either speaking or German outright or at least attempting to do so. Being a tourist is offensive in its nature to an establishment which values itself as a cultural institution. If one, as a tourist, is able to adjust to these expectations, the experiance is both unique and rewarding. The beer was affordable yet characteristic, the food was satisfying and appropriately priced. The decor created a cultured atmosphere and added greatly to my enjoyment. The staff were stern yet polite, only needing a firm handed client not put off by the cultural particularities mentioned above. I would recommend this location

Lovely place. Fab vibe, we enjoyed a few lovely German biers with a lovely barmaid, we used our medium German and she was fantastic. Would absolutely recommend if you love bier! Food looked great although we didn’t eat.

If you are English, steer clear of this restaurant as it is clear that the staff are rude and have no care towards English tourists in their restaurant. Upon arrival we were met with hostility from one of the waitresses, who the proceeded to kick one of my family members bags under the table for an unknown reason as well as being generally rude due to our lack of German. Then she would go and be happy and polite to the other customers who were German like we wouldn’t notice. When asking where the toilets were, I was ignored by 2 other members of staff and finally our waitress told me where they were in a rude manner which put me off wanting to be there. Not nice food and terrible service.

See review under Mommsen Eck. Very rude welcome ' and a rude 'farewell . Pleased we didn 't eat here as we were told after that the food was tasteless.

Very good food! We were walking towards a branded coffee shop, and on our way back to the hotel we decided to stop at this restaurant to check their offer. The hostess welcomed us and led us to a table for 4 people, we were struck by the small size of the table and we were glad that we were only two people We got smoked ribs with salad and french fries. Not cheap but fair price for a great (size&quality) dish. Ask for red beer.
