Das kleine Restaurant in Heringsdorf

As the name suggests, this is a very good little restaurant. The service is excellent, and so is the food. We were very satisfied and would gladly return.

Very, very tasty...highly recommended if you're on the island...

Excellent meal, we had zander and cod. Both excellent. Very good service. Not a big place, suggest booking.

We were really lucky... we got a table without a reservation. Perfect service, great fish, and a lovely location. We'd be happy to go back.

We had a wonderful visit to this small restaurant in Heringsdorf. The food was exceptionally good – every dish was freshly prepared, deliciously seasoned, and presented with attention to detail. The service also left nothing to be desired: attentive, friendly, and courteous, so we felt well looked after throughout. We were particularly impressed by the warm atmosphere of the restaurant, which made our stay a truly relaxing experience. The location exudes coziness and invites you to linger. Tip: During peak season, you should definitely make a reservation to avoid waiting times and plan your evening optimally. Conclusion: Highly recommended – we'll definitely be back!

Very friendly welcome and service, great menu, excellent food, and great value for money! All in all, a perfect end to the day and the start of your vacation!

Delicious drinks and delicious food, very friendly and welcoming service, dogs welcome, and a lovely ambiance (there's also a covered terrace, but reservations aren't available, and you should be prepared for smoking). Card payments accepted, tips in cash. A highly recommended restaurant all around <3

This was by far the most unprofessional behavior by a restaurant, or rather by one of its employees, that I have ever experienced. We (3 adults, 1 infant) were looking for a place to eat and asked for a table at the restaurant in question. A staff member seated us on the terrace (in front of the restaurant) and waited for service. After about 15 minutes, a young couple entered the restaurant and wanted to take their reserved seats. Another staff member (black hair, perhaps this will help with the team debriefing) looked at our table, approached forcefully, and snapped at us in a completely inappropriate tone: "Why are you sitting here? Did you just sit down?" We replied that we had been seated by the other colleague. The reaction was: "She doesn't know!" The waiting couple, as well as we, were visibly irritated by this truly unprofessional behavior. There was no further communication from the waitress. So we got up to give up the reserved seats to the couple. The couple was so embarrassed that they even wanted to give up their seats to us and apologized to us for the incident (it really wasn't their fault). An employee can make mistakes, and then you have to deal with them openly and explain the problem to those affected (in this case, us) and try to find a solution or at least properly explain what's going on. Given the current situation, I have to ask myself whether perhaps our child was also the "problem" and that's why we weren't welcome. If children aren't welcome, you simply have to make it known openly. That was one of the most embarrassing moments I've ever experienced in a restaurant. Standing in the restaurant like a defendant, waiting for the situation to be resolved, only to then simply have to leave at the end, as if you'd committed a crime. Like being kicked out. The restaurant owners should ask themselves whether such an impression, which otherwise seems to be very good food (at least if the reviews are to be believed), does justice to the otherwise seemingly excellent food.

I had a very nice fish prepared with mushrooms on a canopy of Lentils. The fries were fresh and everything was nicely seasoned. The small issue was the spinach in the other dish which had sand in it which is probably because it wasn't thoroughly rinsed before cooking. But the waitress was nice to check with the kitchen and offer an additional glass of wine which we refused. They removed the cup of tea from our bill which was very considerate of them.

Not every guest is welcome here. Respect and courtesy are nonexistent! We waited at least 20 minutes and were successfully ignored by the staff. We've never experienced anything like this in Heringsdorf before.

A very cozy little restaurant. Very friendly service, and the food is delicious. But please make sure you pre-order. Some of the negative reviews are only here because they didn't get a seat. However, tables have to be kept free for those who pre-order. So, be sure to stop by and indulge your palate.

A very small but fine restaurant with a very good selection of fish dishes. The service was always friendly, attentive, and extremely polite... The restaurant is very popular, so reservations are definitely a plus... The lovingly prepared children's dishes are also worth mentioning. We had the zander, and it was beautifully presented. Good children's dishes are unfortunately rare these days... Highly recommended...⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We made a reservation two days in advance and were looking forward to today. We arrived on time, but unfortunately, there were no seats available, but they took care of it immediately, and we got the next available table. It was a tight squeeze, but the service was perfect in the end. The service was truly fantastic, super attentive, always on top of everything, and always friendly with that certain smile. We immediately placed our entire order: starter, main course, and drinks. Without writing anything down, she stood in front of us with the other guests' empty plates and listened. We looked at her a bit skeptically, wondering if she had actually remembered everything—and yes, everything was exactly as ordered. And the food was a dream. Yes, the portions aren't huge, but they don't have to be. The food shines with absolutely perfect flavor. We were more than satisfied and will definitely come back.

12/10, the pappardelle with creamed chanterelle mushrooms was delicious!😋

Rather inconspicuous from the outside, but the cuisine is outstanding and the service is friendly! The schnitzel was expertly prepared and very tasty! The Pfeffertopf (pepper pot) is my personal recommendation! Super delicious, and I'm already looking forward to ordering it again. The food was really very good. We ate here for the first time today and will probably continue to use it as our regular restaurant for years to come. Great food at a slightly higher price, but definitely worth it! Addition: Still incredibly satisfied a year later! Other recommendations are the rump steak with chimichurri, the Captain's Plate, and the pappardelle with creamed chanterelle mushrooms.

Yes, absolutely everything is perfect. The food is so delicious, just enjoy it, and please reserve a table in advance, which is very important. Best wishes to the kitchen and staff. They reserved two tables especially for us on New Year's Eve this year, but everything was already gone. Thank you for that. Simply fantastic.

The food is very good, but the fact that I have to wait exactly 1.5 hours from the time I order until I'm finished eating because the next batch of reservations is already waiting outside the door is a no-go for me, so I won't be eating there again. It makes you feel uncomfortable.

Unfortunately, the value for money was not good at all. The portions were far too small, almost cold, the soup was more like mush, and the mashed potatoes were too thick and lacked any seasoning. Moreover, by 7 p.m., almost everything we wanted to order was already sold out. Overall, very disappointing. We're regulars in Heringsdorf, but we won't be coming back.

I've rarely eaten such delicious food. The service was very friendly. A place to enjoy your meal.

Very cute place, Super delicious food, relaxed atmosphere! Service was absolutely excellent. We'll be back. Be sure to try the cucumber soup with salmon and mustard!

The first impression was promising. From the outside, the restaurant looked attractive and in a good location. Inside, it was a bit staid—bourgeois, boring, conformist, lacking in energy. Much of the daily specials were gone at 7:00 PM (dinner time). The fish soup was too small. The cod dish with mashed potatoes that hadn't seen any butter, milk, or salt, and three overly hard pointed cabbages simply didn't live up to expectations. An unpleasant evening with my guests, who had traveled a long way and weren't treated to any northern cuisine. A fish restaurant without herring in stock is simply a no-go.

On day one, we asked if the three of us could have a drink. I was rudely reprimanded (by a young woman around 30) with a raised index finger: "This is a restaurant!" Because of the good reviews, we still wanted to eat there and reserved a table for three on the terrace the next day. When we arrived at 5 p.m., there was only one table for two left, and the rest was inside. They might have thought about it if the staff hadn't been so incredibly unfriendly.

A cute little restaurant. Delicious food and top-notch service! Thank you.

A small restaurant with a great taste experience. Highly recommended. We've visited many restaurants in Heringsdorf, and this one is among the best. Our Labradoodle, Theo, also felt very comfortable.

We didn't have a reservation, but we were still given a table inside – very accommodating! The food was excellent & the service top-notch! We'd love to come back!

Top-notch in every respect! Great value for money! Friendly service! Highly recommended! A top address in Heringsdorf! Be sure to reserve a table!

If you've ever had fish soup in the Mediterranean, then this Mediterranean fish soup can't compete with it. I found it simply overpriced. The trio of fish with coleslaw was prepared in a really old-school way and didn't excite my palate. Mediocre food sold at a high price.

An exceptionally good restaurant with outstanding food and very friendly service! We went there three times during our one-week stay and were able to try many dishes. All of them – fish and meat – were simply delicious! The food is cooked fresh from fresh ingredients, naturally and imaginatively, but without any fuss. That's unfortunately rare these days! A lot of heart and soul goes into it, and you can feel and taste it. Thank you so much! We're thrilled!

Small menu, but impressive 🙂 This gem is located in an area full of tourist restaurants and standard Italian restaurants. Excellent cuisine, unusual dishes. We really enjoyed it. Highly recommended. Friendly service, reasonable prices.

Very good food, very friendly service. For us, the best restaurant in Heringsdorf so far. We've already booked again.

Super freundliche Bedienung. Speisen waren super lecker. Nicht zuviel und nicht zu wenig. Ein sehr gelungener Abend. Trotz voller Belegung wurden wir einwandfrei bedient

I was so looking forward to this restaurant for my birthday, especially based on the online reviews. Just one example of the main course: it was a lukewarm steak with a shrimp skewer (3 baby shrimp) that was advertised as "surf and turf" for a whopping €34. The friendliness of the staff? Unfortunately, not at all. Upon entering the restaurant and saying I had a reservation, the "lady" said, "There!" and showed us to our table without greeting us. Perhaps she was just in a bad mood by chance. I can't recommend this place. The ambiance inside is tasteless. For an €8 tip for a price of €86, they didn't even thank us...

Thank you. Felt comfortable, welcome. Again and again.

Highly recommended! Good value for money, friendly staff. Fresh fish.

While looking for a nice dinner, we came across this small restaurant – and we weren't disappointed. The weather was perfect, so we found a table on the small terrace. We chose a table for two in the corner, although I have to honestly say the choice could have been better. The seat with our backs to the wall, facing the street, was okay because we could watch the hustle and bustle outside. But on the other hand, I had a view of the trash cans and the kitchen – a privacy screen would really help to make it a bit more pleasant. Also, the tablecloths were dirty in some places, which is a shame – fresh ones would have been great. What also bothered me a bit was that smoking is allowed on the terrace. It spoils the meal a bit, so a separate smoking area would have been really nice. Nevertheless, I have to say, the service was incredibly friendly – ​​we've rarely experienced such great service on the island. It definitely gets 5 stars for that! The starter, shrimp with a small salad, was truly delicious – a dream! For my taste, I would have preferred just one or two more shrimp, but overall it was very good. The main course, a schnitzel, was solid and tasty. Conclusion: We'll definitely be back to try other dishes on the menu. The friendly service alone made us feel truly welcome. If the ambiance could be improved a bit, it would definitely get a full 5 stars!

We went there without a reservation. At first, we were skillfully ignored. After a while, we were told that without a reservation, we could only sit outside. So we sat outside. The chair cushions and tablecloth were stained (but we were hungry). The waitress was quite nice, in contrast to her blonde colleague. The food was excellent. We would recommend it, but be sure to make a reservation. Then you can sit inside at clean tables and chairs.

Unfortunately, I can't rate the food because it never arrived. We sat at our table for 25 minutes and weren't served. Of the six occupied tables, only one managed to order a drink during that time. The service could have been friendlier.

Very friendly and excellent service. The food is exceptionally good. We recommend the straw-fed pork schnitzel with asparagus and boiled potatoes, as well as the chicken breast with herb salad (with strawberries, raspberries, honeydew melon, and orange).

Basically OK. Service only 3 stars as phone reservations are not possible. Table service very good, ambience average, food tasty, prices OK.

It would have to be ordered, luckily we have reserved two more places. The service is top, the kitchen is sorry, really delicious, it's worth more than 100%

Mit einer kleinen Wartezeit konnten wir im kleinen Restaurant auch ohne zu reservieren einen Tisch bekommen. „Sie dürfen auch gern neben uns platzieren“, hat dem Service geholfen und uns einen unterhaltsamen Abend beschert. Unser Essen, Zander bzw. Kotelett mit Spargel, Pellkartoffeln und Hollandaise war gut. Die Hollandaise kam allerdings aus der Tüte (=Punktabzug). Die etwas altbackene Einrichtung hatte etwas von Omas Wohnzimmer, urig, gemütlich und etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Der Service war freundlich und aufmerksam.

Very nice staff and a very good chef, definitely worth a visit

Absolutely recommended. Small menu but big taste. Friendly service. Come here every holiday. Reservations required for inside, not outside and just sit down if it's free - which could be difficult in midsummer. Absolute recommendation!

We had a wonderful evening in this small, charming restaurant. The service was extremely friendly and attentive and accompanied our visit perfectly. The ambience is very nice and cozy, even if some pieces of furniture (e.g. chairs) are a bit old - but that doesn't detract from the overall picture. The selection of dishes is excellent, fish lovers in particular will get their money's worth here. Reservations in advance are definitely recommended as the restaurant is very popular. We'd love to come back!

Simply delicious and warm service

Delicious food, friendly service and the price-performance ratio is also right here.

We spontaneously decided to eat there. Although we hadn't made a reservation and the restaurant was busy, we were warmly welcomed and allowed to be seated at a table. The ambience is very appealing, the food is the crowning glory!! Not only is it visually very nice, but the taste is also amazing!! Also the wine of very good taste. 5 stars plus from me and if you're there, you should definitely eat there, it's better to reserve in advance of course :)

Absolutely recommended. The food tastes great, the menu is small and very fine. The service is super friendly and charming. The atmosphere is incredibly cozy. We liked it very much. You should definitely make a reservation. A visit is worth it. Many thanks to the entire team, we had a wonderful evening :)

Andi is a perfect host who puts a smile on everyone's face with his dishes. His warm personality is also reflected in the restaurant. You should always make a reservation in good time, as the small restaurant is always busy and is an absolute insider favorite. The quality of the food was absolutely high and everything was put together so harmoniously. Price-performance absolutely justified and fair. Kind regards from Anja, Christoph & family

Andi ist ein perfekter Gastgeber der mit seinen Gerichten jeden ein Lachen ins Gesicht zaubert. Seine herzliche Art spiegelt sich auch im Restaurant wieder. Man sollte immer rechtzeitig reservieren, da das kleine Restaurant immer gut besucht ist und ein absoluter Insiderliebling darstellt. Qualität der Speisen absolut hochwertig und alles super harmonisch zusammen gestellt.

Wir sind heute in tierischer Begleitung im „Das kleine Restaurant“ eingekehrt und was soll ich sagen es war ein Genuss. Service, Ambiente, Speisen, Preise einfach top. Wir werden als Insulaner gern wieder einkehren. Macht weiter so!

Beautifully decorated restaurant. Great ambience. Very friendly and attentive service. Very tasty food. The steak was on point and tender. Reservations are mandatory! We were completely satisfied and would like to come back. Addendum: Were here again. The rump steak is awesome. Many a steakhouse can learn a lesson here. I'm happy here.....

Nice little restaurant with super delicious food! Be sure to reserve in advance. Ambiance ok - somewhat old-fashioned furnishings and tables very narrow and sometimes directly at the entrance door or kitchen door. Food very well thought out & varied. Service great. Perfect for a cozy evening with a nightcap!

We have been to the restaurant several times and can only recommend it. Food super tasty, price is still acceptable. Service was very friendly, but you should think about renovating it. We'll be back.

Great service, cozy atmosphere and a kitchen that enjoys cooking.

Ein wirklich empfehlenswertes Restaurant mit guter Küche und ausgesprochen freundlichem Service , der sich auch sehr liebevoll um die mitgebrachten Vierbeiner kümmert. Als Hundebesitzer fühlt man sich hier sehr willkommen, was ja nicht überall der Fall ist. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall gerne wieder.

Very nice little restaurant in Heringsdorf. Selected menu with a small selection from the chef. We really like that! The food was tasty and sufficient. We ate the halibut and surf n' turf. For dessert there was marzipan ice cream, which is our own creation made from marzipan and Greek yogurt. That was okay. Overall, a nice visit and a restaurant that is highly recommended.

It is important to always book in advance, otherwise it will be difficult to get a table. The food was delicious and the service was nice. Dogs are also welcome there, which we think is great.

The “still” insider tip for Heringsdorf! The choice of restaurants on Usedom is large and the imperial baths in particular outdo each other, so “The Little Restaurant” is important to mention. The owner-run restaurant (here the boss still cooks himself) has a small outdoor terrace and a cozy indoor/bar room. So be sure to reserve a table! We tried four starters and three main courses (fish of course) and everything was absolutely delicious!! Okay, when it came to dessert, the marzipan ice cream caused some irritation on my part because it was actually a parfait, but it was still very good. The prices are not high and reasonable. The portions are sufficient for a normal eater in the three-course menu. Dear Andi, how nice that we were able to arrive at your place at short notice and receive our III. We were able to spend our wedding anniversary with you. Good luck to you; we'd love to come back Tina & Linda Update 2025 3 years later and still a culinary experience!!! We spontaneously went to Bansin/Usedom this week and just as spontaneously we tried to get a table for dinner in “The Little Restaurant”. Oh, we were lucky and we were very happy! Our starters - fish soup and prawns - were delicious; very good in the spice balance and a real pleasure to enjoy. There were two gentlemen sitting at our next table whose conversations were less subdued; so we could hear that they were also full of praise for their 3-course selection. Our main courses, Usedomer Matjes and the Käpt'n's plate, were sensational! The tartar sauce and fried potatoes with the matjes were absolutely delicious. The overall composition is simply a dream. The eyes also get their money's worth; All plates are beautifully and lovingly prepared. It's really nice to see that the small restaurant has established itself as a permanent authority here and maintains the high quality and its own standards. Thank you very much Andreas and your team, it was nice with you as always ❤️

An excellent small cozy restaurant with very good cuisine.

Restaurant lists closing at 22:00, but kitchen closes at 20:00

Sensationally delicious food, very nice service, absolutely recommended

Delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere. We felt comfortable, sat at a large table and were served very friendly. The fish soup was strong and the fried fish afterwards was juicy and tender. The wine was tasty and we were too full for dessert. It was a lovely evening, thank you very much!

Wir hatten 4 verschiedene Hauptspeisen und 3 unterschiedliche Vorspeisen. Jedes Gericht war lecker. Besonders das Zandergericht war auf den Punkt . Die Bedienung war schnell, freundlich und zuvorkommend.

We weren't that happy. The horseradish soup was more gravy than soup, the cod was drowning in the mustard sauce and the chive puree was gone. The matjes was ok, but the remoulade sauce was actually just sour cream and had no resemblance to the remoulade sauces in the pictures. It was also pretty fresh in the restaurant. The service was very nice, friendly and accommodating.

We went to this restaurant as a family (2 adults, 1 child) and were again very, very satisfied. For us the best restaurant! Very (child) friendly service, great cooks. All in one: PERFECT! We feel very comfortable there and will definitely come back! :-)

We had dinner there last night and were very surprised. Very tasty Mediterranean fish soup as a starter (with lots of fish, tomatoized). The main course was cod, once with fried pointed cabbage, once with mustard sauce. Best cod we have ever eaten. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. Finely prepared. The service was super nice despite the restaurant being fully booked. We felt really comfortable. The atmosphere is cozy. Definitely reserve in advance. All tables were already occupied at 5 p.m. when it opened. When we left there were guests queuing outside.

Best service, ambience and taste.

The food is great, very friendly service. The food is worth its price.

Sehr freundliches Personal. Hübsch angerichtete Teller und sehr schmackhaftes Essen. Nette Auswahl an Gerichten .... Fisch und Fleisch. Wir waren sehr zufrieden

We were happy to be able to reserve seats the day before. Fortunately, it was possible to get the table a little earlier on the day of the visit. The service was friendly, the main courses were very good. Unfortunately, the starter soup (pumpkin-orange) was a bit salty. Dessert large portion - enough for both of us. :-) What dampened our joy and had a negative impact on the amount of the tip was the fact that we were informed at short notice that unfortunately we would now have to be charged because the next "occupancy" would already be waiting... :-( If we had been told this when we made the reservation, we could have adjusted to it or made a different decision. So we actually felt “thrown out”. And with the high prices... What a shame. By the way, “sprucing up” the sanitary facilities would do the overall impression good.

A very cute restaurant with absolutely delicious food. Lovingly served and prepared with a service that understands the craft with humor and charm. We'll be back! Thank you very much

Discovered this little restaurant while strolling through Heringsdorf in the evening and stopped in for a fish soup and a glass of wine. What can I say, both the food and service left you wanting more. So make a reservation for the following evening (which I really recommend). To start with, there was a triology from the house, followed by the captain's plate, which has already been praised several times, and then ending with a wonderful parfait. Every single dish is a feast for the eyes, lovingly prepared. Everything tastes perfectly matched, a pleasure. The service impressed with pleasant service, friendliness and competence. I'll keep it short, I'd love to come back here.

A wonderful restaurant… The service was very quick and extremely nice… the food was excellent!!!! We were lucky (weather) to always sit outside and enjoyed it very much. Highly recommended….

Nice little restaurant with very tasty food. You should definitely make a reservation, otherwise it will be difficult to get a seat at peak times.

As always, a successful evening.

Small, very cleanly run location. The dishes are absolutely well put together and prepared, which is reflected in the taste. The staff is friendly, what more could you want. Absolutely recommended!!!

A very cozy, beautiful restaurant with excellent cuisine and very good service. We would love to come back 😀

Great, such unique historical places make the holiday special

We were there around 7:30 p.m. and they didn't feel like serving us anymore and scared us away with their unfriendliness. There are hardly any vegetarian options either Too bad.

Verglichen mit den zahlreichen Hotelrestaurants äußerlich eher bescheiden und nur unwesentlich günstiger, aber mit sehr guter Küche und daher stark frequentiert.

Very friendly and attentive service in a cozy environment. The food was of good quality and reasonably priced. There was also water for our dog immediately. ABSOLUTELY RECOMMENDED

Food is definitely a highlight. Friendly service. Maybe some rust spots in the color scheme can be corrected. But definitely not because of the taste or presentation of the dish. Thanks for the great evening.

Nice little restaurant with good food like fish, our service was great, another one there was unpleasantly loud,

This restaurant is called "the little restaurant". But it's a very good restaurant with fish 🐟 cooked perfectly, as well as its accompaniments (girolles, lentils...). The starter soups are excellent. Very pleasant setting and staff. Recommended by a German tourist guide. THANKS.

Great fish dishes, perfectly fried

The restaurant may seem a bit inconspicuous from the outside, but the food and service are even better. The entire meal and also the desserts were beautifully prepared and tasted fabulous! Price-performance ratio is also good. I can only recommend it and will definitely come back. Addendum: Went back after 2 years and can only recommend it. A reservation makes sense here.

Super Service, wenn auch sehr Norddeutsch, aber es passte alles. Perfekter Tisch, super leckere Gurken-Senfsuppe mit Lachs (noch nie so super feine Suppe gegessen!), feiner Wein, rund um gelungener Abend! Danke noch einmal dafür! Gerne wieder einmal :-)

Our favorite restaurant on Usedom. Not an insider tip, so be sure to reserve in advance. Very child-friendly with good children's meals.

Very tasty food, both the fish and the meat dish

Very appealing, lovingly designed food, Christiane tops the whole thing. The food is prepared at the highest level. Only recommended. Christiane is available to advise every taste.

Good food, the price-performance ratio is right, you have to reserve a table in advance

Excellent quality and cuisine, top service 👍 10 stars 🌟

Delicious food and very nice service 😊

It was wonderful to be there again! Everything was a success! Stay as you are!

Enttäuschend, trotz vorheriger Reservierung kein adäquater Tisch. Mussten vor dem Lokal warten bis ein Tisch frei wurde. Sehr guter Sauvignon der leider nicht kalt genug serviert wurde. Die Kartoffelbeilage war noch halbroh, der Feldsalat schon teilweise gelb und nicht sauber gewaschen, der Sand knirschte zwischen den Zähnen. Fair war das die Kritik angenommen wurde und das Gericht nicht berechnet wurde. Dafür meinen Respekt. Kleiner Hinweis noch, die Tischdecke und Speisekarte hatten auch schon bessere Zeiten gesehen. Upps, da war das Gericht doch auf der Rechnung, musste noch einmal reklamieren. Danach gab‘s stattdessen die Getränke gratis. In Summe ein chaotischer Abend.

Mega staff, it couldn't be better, very warm, absolutely happy guests, great food, red jelly has never been so good

Very tasty food. Freshly prepared and tasty. Nice, courteous service. We would be happy to visit you again.

Sweet waiter and good atmosphere, but a little lacking with the food and the temperature of the wine. Boring salad and too warm wine. A temperate red wine at 15-16 degrees had worked wonders

A real insider tip. The dishes are of very high quality, the boss and the service are very accommodating and the schnapps menu is recommended. Anyone who is bothered by the prices should know that quality has its price. McDonald’s is never far😉 Dear team from the small restaurant: Keep it up, if you appreciate good food, come back.
