For a one-star restaurant, the ambience is terrible. The wooden chairs have no cushions or a simply padded bench. The wooden table is varnished to give it a relaxed look and at the same time save €1,500 a month on white laundry. The dining room is loud and too cold in winter, the heating is lukewarm on level 5. The woman sitting next to you should wear a thick, simple sweater and not designer clothing, which is not shown here. A blouse or something similar is out of the question, as the temperature would reveal too much. A record player plays black vinyl with very specific music, often so loud that you can 't understand your table neighbor. If you turn the music down, it 's promptly turned up again... The service sometimes seems haphazard or provided by temporary employment agencies. The service is often mostly in English and poor German. All in all, you celebrate yourself in the special way of the boss in the house until the bitter end of the establishment. In terms of food, there are now only 8-course menus, yes or no. Optional matching wines. The wines were more of a mediocre accompaniment, but perfectly suited to the courses. The kitchen is fundamentally capable of more than the restaurant 's style allows. When it closes in mid-December, the owner will rethink his concept. Too casual and special for a star, too expensive for anything less. It 's simply an attempt to make fine dining trendy in Kreuzberg. Unfortunately, the zeitgeist is changing ever faster. The result of the evening was €500 for two, in a special ambiance with quite competent cuisine. Others can do that better, even in Berlin...we were entertained, but unfortunately not met with enthusiasm.
