Reviews praise Skosh's outstanding small plates, open-kitchen theatre and warm service; note it's not cheap and often requires advance booking.

Would not recommend on account of very rude staff. This restaurant is a medium fish in a small pond which apparently gives the hostess the idea that she's the doorman at Berghain. There's no reason to be rude and unhelpful.

Superb as expectedl! The hens egg starter is soooo good, the wine is well priced and the service is very good. Oysters are fantastic and the prok dish is the best pork I have ever had. We will be going back.

Lovely lovely evening. Our waitress was delightful and explained things clearly we didnt catch her name, sorry). Sat at bar and enjoyed watching the efficiency in the kitchen. All food was delicious but our favourites we chose were hen 's eggs, lamb tartare and pork 'burnt ends '. Amazing flavours.

We came her for my birthday meal as a special treat. The food did not disappoint, everything was delicious and well presented. The service was overall great. However we did have to wait over 35 minutes for our table, as apparently some other guests did not want to leave. This was also because they wanted to give us a corner table due to the special occasion, just perhaps it would of been best to communicate that to us while we waited at the bar just wondering. I'm certainly not ungrateful as we were fine to wait, but it would of been better to tell us what the situation was. Regardless it was a great evening and I would return!
