She also asked for no mushrooms. When it arrived with mushrooms she mentioned her previous request and the mushrooms seemed to have just been picked off and returned to our table.I had fillet steak which I couldn't fault and overall it is fairly cheap so can't really complain.If your in the area and aren't fussy/ on a budget...give it a go. We wouldn't go back but we never do really when on holiday.

The place is located on the Western edge of the Oranienstrasse part of Kreuzberg -- walking further West will get into the no-man's land of the former West-Berlin housing projects along the Wall. Stiege is ok -- the food is reasonably priced and does the trick while lacking any special appeal that would make this a "target" destination. Good service, good local beer by the pitcher and a longish menu should satisfy most.

Pit was getting dark, and to be honest we did not feel too safe, this part of eastern Berlin was not very nice, lots of vagrants, teach, graffiti, etc. just when we were about to give up on finding a decent place to eat that took credit cards (many places did not) we came across Stiege and sat outside on the quiet side by the few other diners there. I am not sure how to categorize the cuisine, it seems to offer a bit of everything, and the menu was large and ambitious. I decided to play it safe and ordered one of the "chefs specialities" a grilled chicken breast served with noodles In a creamy lemon sauce. The food was tasty, if a bit too saucy,I would ask for the sauce on the side. It was a decent dish for 9 or so euros. Hubby ordered a beef kufta, minced steak patty in a tomato sauce with sliced roasted potatoes on topped served in a clay dish and served with something similar to naan bread. Staff was pleasant and service good. Total meal cost 38 euros, with 2 entrees, a side salad, 2 beers, 1 wine and 1 bottle of water.

I got pasta in the mushroom cream and it was okay. My boyfriend got fried pork. The fries were delicious and the sauce was great. The pork itself was a bit dry. Good service and nice atmosphere!

Cool atmospheric establishment. Delicious beer and a very cozy atmosphere! We ate pork medallions, but they were a bit tough read more Cool atmospheric establishment. Delicious beer and a very cozy atmosphere! We ate pork medallions, but they were a bit tough
