Brasserie zu Gutenberg in Potsdam

The service was good and courteous. Unfortunately, we couldn't change the fact that we waited over an hour for our food despite having a reservation. The food was overwhelmingly unseasoned, and the rosemary potatoes were missing not only salt but also rosemary... What a shame! The meat was of good quality and very well cooked.

Exceptionally delicious food. Super friendly, relaxed, and fun staff. Thank you so much, we had a great evening and a lot of fun.

We went there for dinner with a group of eight people. We all ordered different dishes. The food arrived at the same time, and to be honest, it was extremely delicious. The selected wines were also very good. Because the brasserie was currently under scaffolding, there was also a 20% discount on the food. The service was very nice and friendly. A truly wonderful evening.

We dined here by chance this evening and were not disappointed. The ambiance, the service, and the food were all simply fantastic. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating, making us feel very comfortable. The food was freshly prepared, and the many homemade dishes were also truly delicious. All in all, a great visit and a big compliment to all the staff. We will be back.

Great restaurant and service Nice conversation, Good food. Would gladly go again

Everything just fits perfectly here: delicious food and perfect, humorous, and creative service. Thank you for a truly lovely evening and great food.

The food was very mediocre and overpriced. On top of that, the waiter showed his displeasure about the tip we left. There are much better choices in Potsdam overall.

The food was unexpectedly delicious

We had dinner there, it was incredibly delicious

Very friendly, fun staff. The food (especially the coq au vin) is excellent. You can also sit outside and while away the time with a delicious beer while the ladies across the street go shopping 😎

Disappointing - it's just another place doing standard German food, but they charge 50% extra for no apparent reason. Highlight was the waiter trying to aggressively hustle me into leaving a tip for his robotic service. Avoid, there are loads of better places in Potsdam.

Delicious and unique gourmet cuisine

I ate there with my girlfriend and was pleasantly surprised. The positive reviews from others are more than justified. We'll be back.

Bin spontan eingekehrt, hatte Zitronenhühnchen. War auf den Punkt. Der Service war freundlich und sehr aufmerksam. Die Einrichtung ist auch sehr ansprechend.

In the heart of the old town! Great views! Delicious food and wonderful staff! Highly recommended!

Very tasty food. Nice ambience.

We only ate here, and it was excellent. There wasn't a single dish to complain about, and the service was attentive and friendly. Therefore, 5 stars and see you next time.

Restaurant recommended, good food, friendly staff and good service.

Absolutely excellent food and drink

Two of us went out to eat with our dog. It was very pleasant, with super friendly servers and exceptionally good food. The price was reasonable. We'd be happy to go again!

We went there on a Saturday afternoon because we couldn't find any other restaurant in downtown Potsdam. Prices are high. We paid €21.50 for five spears of asparagus, far too little hollandaise sauce, and a few potatoes. We were completely hungry after our museum visit and drove home. The atmosphere was like being at a train station. Very disappointing. And we waited a very long time for the food.

Best Schnitzel I have had, very good price/quality ratio and also very friendly service which is uncommon for germany! A must go!

Very nice restaurant with nice staff in a quiet corner. The atmosphere in the restaurant was very cozy, the food was great.

We were two couples eating there together. The service was polite, but it took almost an hour from ordering to receiving our food. Two had Wienerschnitzel and one had coq au vin, both dishes were tasty and well-prepared. The last of us had white fish with fresh asparagus, hollandaise sauce and white potatoes. Unfortunately, the fresh white asparagus turned out to be a huge disappointment. It had been cooked for far too long and had become soft and chewy. Too bad, because the fish was actually fine. We pointed this out and the waiter immediately admitted the mistake, and a little later he brought us an apology from the kitchen. It must also be said in fairness that the restaurant rectified the mistake by reducing the bill quite a bit.

Went there for dinner with friends. Cozy atmosphere, the food was very tasty and lovingly prepared. Also very nice and attentive service.

Steak grilled to perfection, side dishes great. I can recommend the restaurant 100%. Parking is difficult, but not anywhere else in Potsdam

Highly recommended, we went there for dinner, it was excellent and the service was second to none

We felt like we were in France. Food, drinks delicious. Waiters original and very friendly.

Excellent French restaurant! The food is simply superb, especially the coque au vin. The waiters are always very attentive. The restaurant is located almost in the center of the pedestrian street. They also have tables outside, it’s even very nice to sit there, not many people walk by.

A lovely restaurant in the heart of Potsdam. Very good food and friendly staff.

Excellent restaurant with very good service 5/5

Very tasty entrecote with bacon beans and rosemary potatoes with pepper cream sauce. Simply a poem. Plus in the promotion 2 for the price of one!!! You can't get this quality anywhere else. The service was again very friendly and quick. Danny always has a cool saying on his lips. The location is highly recommended.

The Brasserie zu Gutenberg in Potsdam's city center has been our favorite culinary address for special evenings for years. As soon as you enter, you will notice the **stylish furnishings** with red leather armchairs, warm wooden tables and subtle lighting, creating a cozy atmosphere between French charm and modern comfort. The **outstanding staff** makes every visit an experience - from the friendly welcome to the competent wine recommendation. The service staff are always attentive without seeming intrusive and patiently explain specialties such as the *“Pré et mer”* (beef fillet with king prawns) or the Alsatian tarte flambée. The **Steaks** are one of our highlights: The tender *Entrecôte* (300g) with Mediterranean chili sauce and rosemary potatoes impresses with its perfect cooking level, while the *Beef fillet* (200g) with veal jus regularly causes enthusiasm. But other dishes are also impressive - the *French onion soup* with a cheese crust is a strong start, and the *vegetarian tagliatelle* with goat cheese surprises with its creaminess. We particularly appreciate the **variety of the menu**, which ranges between classic brasserie dishes (like *Coq au vin*) and creative interpretations. Finally, the *Crème Brûlée* with its perfectly caramelized surface should not be missed. Our conclusion after numerous visits: An address that always impresses with its **consistent quality**, loving details (such as homemade sauces) and casual elegance. We are already planning our next evening – perhaps combined with a stay in the in-house guesthouse.

Great service with friendly staff. The menu had something for everyone and we enjoyed it. We'll be back.

Food very tasty. Prices okay. The guest room was very cold.

... it's a shame when a restaurant that is actually French has deficiencies that reduce the visit. Food was very good, but unfortunately the overall concept is not well rounded.

We dined there again. Yes, FOOD, because FOOD doesn't apply. Our entrecote was wonderfully balanced and seasoned and the recommended wine went perfectly with it. CHAPEAU!

In a large group of 10 people, we enjoyed a very, very tasty meal in a cozy atmosphere, with excellent advice from our very friendly and competent waiter! All dishes arrived quickly and were cooked to perfection and hot at the table. Thank you for a very nice evening!!

Incredibly delicious food, friendly staff top.

Enjoyed wonderful lunch in the brasserie. French classics in very good form. We'd love to come back.

Great French food, excellent service and don’t forget the Creme Brûlée 😋

My wife and I had reservations for dinner. We were warmly greeted as soon as we arrived without having to wait and were able to choose between two tables. The waiters were very friendly and attentive. The food came in a reasonable amount of time and was very tasty. We liked it and would like to come back.

I first got to know the “Brasserie zu Gutenberg” through an invitation. And I can say that the visit was really worth it! A fine, not too extensive map, in my opinion everyone will find something there. And there is also a menu with Christmas dishes. Attentive and humorous service, very tasty food and a very pleasant atmosphere! I'd love to come back.

Really nice restaurant, good food, and reasonable price. The "filet à la pique" was delicious! The waiter was kind and with good advice.

Very nice personell and the food was fantastic!

We were there for dinner with 17 people. Great service, great advice. Not cheap, but worth every cent!

A very nice restaurant, with great offers and good prices. Great kitchen!

A very nice restaurant in the middle of Potsdam city center. The service is very friendly and helpful, the food was very tasty. Since it is the 1000th movement, there is a 50 percent discount on your next visit 😜

Very tasty food, I had schnitzel Viennese style. The schnitzel and fries were really tasty, the vegetables were still slightly crunchy - as they should be.

Very nice place with a very tasty and typical German breakfast

Nice terrace on the street but little traffic.

I especially liked the staff :)

Dopo aver visitato Potsdam, abbiamo deciso di mangiare in questo ristorante. Personale gentile, ci hanno fatto accomodare velocemente, in uno dei tavoli esterni. Piatti tipici tedeschi, molto buona la schnitzel.

You can eat very well here. I had an exceptionally good cordon bleu.

Great staff, friendly, polite and always ready to have fun. Plenty of food. However, the cook was probably in love, the fries and mushrooms were very salty. All in all, highly recommended.

Fantastic food, high quality, great seasoning and perfect service that really focuses on the guests. We also really liked the wine recommendations. We would be happy to come back and definitely recommend the restaurant.

Uns hat es leider auch beim 2. Besuch dort eher nicht so gut geschmeckt. Frau hatte Salat, das Dressing fehlte komplett und von den Brotchips war nur ein einziger drauf. Mein Gericht war auch nicht viel besser. Wir kommen nicht mehr.

We visited this restaurant on the first evening of our stay in Potsdam. We hadn't made a reservation, but that wasn't a problem as there was plenty of space both on the terrace and inside. We were greeted by a very nice waiter who assigned us a spot inside. The order was taken by another (bald) less friendly waiter. The aperitif order went wrong. My wife ordered an Apérol Spritz and I ordered a pastis. My wife received an oversized Spezi instead of the ordered drink. When we kindly pointed out the misunderstanding to the waiter, he replied mockingly and rather arrogantly that my wife had indeed ordered a Spezi and made no effort to take the Spezi back and replace it with an Apérol Spritz. My wife was somewhat upset by this unfriendly behavior. It was unfortunate that the other (friendly) waiter was no longer to be seen. The food was okay but not top-notch, and we eventually paid 75.70 euros for a Spezi (!), a pastis, 2 main courses, and a bottle of mineral water. There are better restaurants in Potsdam where the service is indeed customer-friendly.

Aufgewärmter "Frass" aus der Mikrowelle, schon 5 min nach Bestellung serviert. Wo ist da bitte die gehobene französische Küche? Einfach nur schrecklich. Komme nie wieder! Coq au vin aus der Mikro war natürlich hart, Fleisch zäh, zerkocht, ohne Geschmack. Hat alles nach Fertiggericht geschmeckt. Atmosphäre draußen auf der Gehwegs-Terrasse wie am Bahnhof. Drinnen stinkts wie alter Muff, da kann man keinesfalls sitzen.

Very tasty, very nice service. Gladly again!

Super tasty, very friendly waiter and the atmosphere is great! Price/performance top 👍👍👍👍 Again any time !

Food was good though the sauces were a tad bit salty to our liking. Service was great. We ordered corden bleu, coq au vin, meat platter and a couple more dishes that we didn’t managed to take pictures cause we were too hungry but they were amazing. Will definitely visit again if we go back!

We served the meal with good food but a little bit, with a salad that gives the impression that it has been on other plates and recovered. Friendly waiter.

The service is great! Food is absolutely recommended!

Great restaurant. The food was super tasty and the service was also very nice and friendly. Very happy again.

We ordered two tarte flambées. Price was like homemade but dough from market (((

My husband and I went with my daughter, her partner and our one-year-old grandson. The waiter was personable and welcoming, a high chair was produced for the young one, and the food was plentiful and delicious. We all enjoyed our different meals - pork schnitzel, steak, coq au vin and a pasta dish. We had eaten there before two years ago on a previous visit to Potsdam and would gladly go again.

We tried traditional German food. It was OK. The service could be more professional.

I just ate here and it was very tasty. The staff is also friendly and a bit funny.

I had a meal here with my friend. Food was pleasant enough with a nice view down the street if seated outside. Service was decent enough from one of our waiters, the other kind of mocked my friend when she requested no onions due to intolerances. Later when we got the bill, the same rude waiter came with the receipts and emphasised loudly to us that tip is not included. When we said ok we don't want to pay a tip, he kept acting ignorant saying "There isn't a tip included in this, you have to tell me how much" and kept pushing it. We ended up rounding up each of our amounts (split bill), with him scoffing and shaking his head the whole time, clearly pissed off. When he walked away a lovely German lady who overheard everything backed us up and told us that you do not have to pay a tip in Germany, don't listen to people like the waiter who do that. Felt so validated after that, and even more pissed at the waiter's attitude. Would not recommend

Nice service, good food, recommended

Great ambience, good beer and excellent food. Of course, corresponding prices, but also very good staff. All in all a successful evening.

We ate here and it was very good. A really nice atmosphere, very friendly and attentive service - we left the Vrasserie very satisfied and full. Again any time!

We had to wait 40 minutes for our order.

We had dinner there and the food was ok but the service was terrible, they was putting pressure on us to order the food asap and when we had to pay they were extremely rude and a bit racist.

Superb food in all regards. We had the schnitzel, coq au vin and creme brulee. Would recommend 10/10

Although we first found out that there was no place for us (a group of 7 people), but when we decided to wait, we managed to reserve a place in 45 minutes. Then there were some problems with the order, information about the kitchen being closed(?), but after explaining that we had limited time, we managed to finalize everything quickly and efficiently. And above all, very tasty. I recommend!

Good place to eat, great attention and service. The food was delicious, the coffee was delicious, but it was worth it.

I can only recommend the Coq au vin... sooo delicious! The camembert was also beautifully prepared with plenty of salad with a tangy dressing, which was also very tasty. Thank you!

Super quiet terrace in a picturesque little street, delicious fillet of beef and steak. I recommend

In the heart of Potsdam. This restaurant is simply amazing. The food is delicious, and it has the perfect size for a meal. The staff are very nice, and have attention to details. We have ordered the starter with king shrimps. It came with 5 king shrimps, with a delicious sauce, and bread with garlic. Also, the beef with smashed potatoes, and champignons sauce. It is a restaurant that is worth a visit. We are planning to go back to the city, and definitely this restaurant is on our lunch/dinner list to go again :)

Located on a very nice street in Potsdam, I came over on the train from central Berlin. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Drinks were nice, had a cocktail and a bier. Food was a little disappointing unfortunately. The breaded Camembert tasted strange. I would suggest removing the rind.

We were denied a table at 20:45 because "the kitchen is already closed". How is it possible when the indicated opening hours are until 23? If you don't need customers I won't bother you with my presence...

The food is excellent, the service perfect and a cozy atmosphere. We felt good all around.

First time for my parents tasting a Schnitzel and that was a great place to do so! Great food, really nice terrace, well located. A bit touristic but that was also the purpose of our visit. I didn’t rated 5/5 because we had to wait a little bit long. Still an overall good experience!

I was only at the Restaurant, I got a schnitzel, pretty tasty, thick, but without air inside the fried part. French fries were also good. My girlfriend got cordon bleu, that was okay too. Meat was served with a creamy mushrooms plate, it felt industrial product, but it wasn't that bad. As side a camembert with jam sauce. Overall enjoyable. Red wine was good, I liked the selection of red offered. Waiter was nice person. I didn't like at the moment of paying to receive the receipt with the printed sentence "tip not included" highlighted with orange marker. Tip should not be begged, it's not by law and should be decided by the customers.

L'endroit est sympa et les plats sont bons et copieux. J'aurais mis 5 étoiles pour l’expérience mais le serveur( chauve) était juste infecte. Très froid avec des réflexions déplacés. De temps en temps son collègue venait nous servir et c'était beaucoup plus agréable. En tout cas, dommage d'avoir un service médiocre qui ne reflète pas les plats servis.

We were simply thrilled, everything is just right here. Just keep it up. This is what an old restaurateur from Zerbst wrote. 👍

Best quality at fair prices, plus one very good service. Clear restaurant recommendation.

Underwhelming food, quite a letdown considering the 4.5 rating that made us pick this restaurant in the first place. Overpriced. Good location and friendly service though.

Authentic French cuisine with very attentive service. Thanks for a nice lunch

We are very satisfied and will not be here for the last time. The furniture is very attractive and the service is excellent. Modern furnishings made old, but still very attractive. Great cocktails and great beer from our own creation.

Successful meal: We accepted the offer of 2 entrecotes for the price of 1. The meat was superbly prepared and cooked to perfection. The side dishes were very tasty after they could be put together individually. The presentation of the food was also on par with the good taste. The service was very attentive without being intrusive. Conclusion: We wanted this restaurant close to home. Thank you for such a positive experience.

Super tasty steak, great service

This article is exclusively about the restaurant, information about the hotel is therefore deliberately left open and does not constitute a review. The restaurant has a rustic atmosphere. The dishes are taken from French cuisine, but definitely prepared for the Germanic palate. The prices are very spicy, but the dishes are also perfectly seasoned. The fact that customers dine there in the upscale area can be seen from the fact that wine recommendations are also given for a number of dishes. Guests who come to an empty restaurant and sit at the wrong table - from the waiter's perspective - will receive a reprimand. It's not the fine French way, which is why it only gets 4 stars.

The flod was perhaps okay why I gave 2/5 instead of 1/5. But the place is kind of a tourist place with bad service. We should be happy to be served more than the personal was happy for us being there.

I think it's a really nice restaurant with great rooms and fantastic food... The service is also absolutely great and nice, only the boss himself, he just tears down everything that his employees set up... maybe it was just today a bad day on his part, maybe not... that's why I personally and the company's employees will avoid this restaurant. It's a shame, because the first impression is always the most important!

Good restaurant. Good location. Very attentive, friendly staff. Ambience pleasant. Prices yes, a bit high, but people... downtown Potsdam. Parking for 10 minutes costs 50 cents. Sporty. It would have been very nice if we had been told when we ordered the tomato salad that it was more like a rocket salad. My wife is not a fan of this salad. A pity. But we're happy to give it 4 stars.

Food very average, service ok. Bald headed water was very pushy and demanded €15 tip for service when offered €5 tip. Wouldn't return. A place to avoid.

Food was average, service was OK but waiter demanded a €15 tip for service, when offered €5. Very abrupt and rude wouldn't return.
