Gasthaus Kater Alex in Berlin

The cozy place seems to be a favorite of locals. You have to wait a long time for the food. I ordered it on their recommendation and I was not very impressed. My colleague had the Karka. Of course, here in Germany they serve it everywhere, but I have to admit that it is basically spoiled everywhere. This way the meat falls off the bone perfectly, but the meat itself is too dry and not juicy. My suggestion is to fry the bacon in hotter frying oil, then you will need to fry it for a shorter time and you will keep the meat juicier. Although the garnish can be praised. The cabbage was great, in many places in Germany they serve it too sour

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had reserved a table for a family dinner – the table was lovingly set. The owner is simply kind-hearted and incredibly fond of children! ❤️ Very attentive and always eager to anticipate our every need. We felt completely at home and well looked after. A huge thank you for the wonderful family reunion – we would love to come back!

Excellent food, clean facility, more than friendly staff, all praise +++!!!

A wonderful dinner experience with fantastic hosts. The service was warm, friendly and attentive, and the food was top quality throughout. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a welcoming atmosphere and excellent cuisine.

Best schnitzel i have eaten so far in Berlin! This place feels very authentic with a lovely lady serving us. The portion sizes were great with no remarks on the food at all. Even more bonuspoints because they added preizelbeeren on the side of the schnitzel (i have noticed they don't do this at every place) Will go back here when I'm in Charlottenburg!

Nice option for German food. The cordon bleu was cooked nicely and well filled.

Very tasty food with generous portions! The lady who served us was super nice and attentive. We'd love to go back when we're in Berlin! :)

The most amazing Schnitzel I've eaten so far. Such a jem of a place. The staff is so, so nice and patient, even though they are overbooked. The food is fresh, amazing, tasty ans fills you with warmth and cozyness. The photo speaks for itself. Atmosphere is very lively, how can it not be with everyone smiling, laughing and being kind. Would recommend to anyone passing by, and even making the trip just for the food.

Very nice restaurant with German cuisine. Very friendly staff.

Very friendly, attentive, and child-friendly staff, delicious schnitzel. Highly recommended.

Very friendly service, delicious food and very clean and tidy restrooms.

I was staying around the corner from this restaurant and wanted some authentic German food in my week in Berlin. Encouraged by the reviews, I went on a Sunday night (when many places are closed). The interior is modest and, frankly, not much to commend. I ate at one of the four sidewalk tables on a cool late August evening. I ordered the Jagerschnitzel (regular size) with roasted potatoes. I’m not a schnitzel expert but this one was simply delicious. The meat was freshly pounded (not frozen), the breading was not too thick (but delectable), no tell-tale grease, and the mushroom sauce was good (but not fantastic). The roasted potatoes (which I chose over fries) were extremely good. (A small mix of lettuce, cucumber slices, and a carrot “rose” rounded out the plate, more as decoration as opposed to a salad.) My server turned out to be the owner. He speaks better English than I do (he’s a “techie” and learned English largely that way). He’s very friendly and accommodating, who’s working hard to make his restaurant successful. You want to “root” for this guy. He’s an entrepreneur who feels the pinch of every glitch (a new credit card processing machine was due in a week) or shortcoming. There aren’t many. After dinner, I sought directions to neighborhood stores and inquired if red cabbage was available, since I thought it would be a nice “add.” He explained (patiently!) that yes, while red cabbage is delicious, it’s not traditionally served with the dish I ordered. I appreciated the education. On my way out, he took the time to bring me to a table to show me the size of the optional “extra large” schnitzel, where the patron was having it with three eggs on top. It looked as delicious as it was enormous. Prices are reasonable and the beer was exactly as ordered. I’m going back there tonight!

The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. Every dish was perfectly cooked and fresh

Very nice restaurant very very nice

Super delicious food, friendly service, and great music! We'd love to go back!

After a long hike, we ended up at Kater Alex's. We were pleasantly surprised by a delicious meal. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommended.

Highly recommended. Very nice owner, clean and pleasant atmosphere, super delicious food. Discovered by chance and did not disappoint! TOP

Food is fresh and tasty and accompanied by music our server was very quick.....

The food was delicious! I had the Jägerschnitzel and alcohol free beer.

We sat outside and the sweet Croatian lady had little time but we ate super delicious food

Food was delicious, exactly what we were looking for that day. The restaurant is cozy and comfortable. We had some quality 80s music accompanying our meal. But most of all - we were served by the nicest lady in the whole Berlin. Big thank you! Hope we'll get a chance to visit you again.

Great welcome. Delicious food, and the service was first-class.👍🏼

The food is absolutely top-notch. The service is amazing, the staff is super friendly. I'm stuffed and look forward to coming back soon.

Very nice place, I have been here when in vacation in Berlin, loved the food and the beer selection here

A good restaurant in the heart of Charlottenburg. The schnitzel and side dishes are excellent. We went there for lunch on a Saturday and enjoyed an excellent schnitzel. The waitress was very friendly and the service was quick. I recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, non-touristy restaurant.

Crispy perfection — a schnitzel done right!

Had an amazing dinner at The Fork! The pork cutlets with onions and pancetta were packed with flavor, and the local wine paired perfectly. Super easy to get to by metro and such a cozy vibe. Loved it!

Only superlatives for this address. We had come down from the center of Berlin to our hotel to eat something in this area and were led here via TripAdvisor. The portions are very large (yes, even the normal portions, because you can also choose XXL - think before you start). The food was incredibly tasty and the staff extremely friendly! We will come back here with great pleasure, and quite hungry. If you are in the area of ​​Charlottenburg, do not miss this restaurant 😉

I don't even know where to begin. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The portions are huge and incredibly delicious. We were offered extra sauce for FREE, which I think is incredibly nice. The atmosphere is also very pleasant; I highly recommend the restaurant. Card payments are also accepted!

My boyfriend and I had a delicious meal for an affordable price. The service was wonderful and the Wiener schnitzel and Schweinshaxe are both to die for!

Top service, top food! Highly recommended.

Wonderful schnitzel and beer, feels like proper German food

It's a cozy and relaxed place where you can enjoy a variety of dishes in peace. The food is delicious, and the portions are large enough to fill you up. The staff are super polite and friendly. You won't be rushed out like you might be elsewhere, even if you're still sitting and just having a drink. If you want a relaxing evening, this is exactly the place to be.

We had a wonderful dining experience at The Fork, a charming German restaurant located in the suburbs. The restaurant is extremely easy to reach by metro, which made the journey effortless. The highlight of our meal was the delicious pork cutlets served with potatoes—unique and flavorful, cooked with onions and pancetta that added a lovely touch. The local wine complemented the dishes perfectly, enhancing the authentic German flavors. The service was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and very considerate, which made us feel truly welcomed. Overall, a fantastic place for a hearty and satisfying meal in a relaxed setting. Highly recommended!

Great store. Great staff. Always happy to come back. Highly recommended.

Very friendly staff. Excellent schnitzel. Friendly atmosphere. The only small downside was the mayonnaise and ketchup in sachets.

5 stars MORE THAN DESERVED! Super friendly service. Every one of our wishes was taken into account, we weren't kept waiting long and everyone did their best to make us happy. The food was very tasty. I haven't been so positively surprised in a long time.

Εξαιρετική επιλογή για αρίστη τοπική κουζίνα! Η ιδιοκτήτρια και ο γιος της κάνουν τα πάντα για να έχετε την καλύτερη εξυπηρέτηση! Τα φαγητά είναι εξαιρετικά και τα γλυκά εξίσου!

Very delicious, everything fresh Very nice service. Best regards, we will definitely come back 💪💪💪

The restaurant is great! Great service! Great food. Recommended

Service, food, ambience... what can you say, just GREAT!

Highly recommended, friendly staff, direct service, good prices.

I enjoyed this meal, the food is good and the dishes are plentiful. I also tried the rump steak, it was tender. I recommend.

The worst currywurst I've eaten in my life! The fries were from the day before and the sauce was gypsy sauce from a jar. I can't understand the positive reviews at all.

Nice service, delicious food, very nice atmosphere

Lovely experience. Will come again :)

I have ordered very tasty food several times now, but it would be good if I, for example, If you order fried potatoes, you don't have to add the fries, then maybe you'd rather have a very small side salad as far as I'm concerned, you can also charge extra because you can't eat everything together, the fried potatoes and the fries, so throwing them away isn't a good idea either

A very good restaurant I can only recommend it.

There are people here who use reviews to cheat. please be careful...

Best home cooking from a loving hostess, super attentive service, large portions and a warm atmosphere. Were there for 7 and will be back.

Das Schnitzel mit Pilzen passt zu dem Begriff "Kantinenessen" wie die Faust aufs Auge. Die Pommes sind komplett geschmackslos. Das Schnitzel ist sparsam klein und so dünn wie Pappe. Die Pilzsoße ist ebenfalls fast komplett geschmackslos und man denkt sich nur, dass sie noch nicht einmal gekostet oder aus der Fertigmischung abgeändert wurde. Dazu lieget dann noch ein Salatblatt, 2 Gurkenscheiben und ein Tomatenschnitz als Andeutung eines Salat's. Natürlich ohne Soße Als Kantinenessen wäre das ja noch Akzeptabel, aber nicht für 20€ oder mehr als 5. Die Specials können ja besser sein, aber sich mit solch einem Gericht zu präsentieren spricht für sich selbst und das ganze Restaurant. Ich würde keinem Menschen der mir mir nur im Ansatz am Herzen liegt empfehlen hier zu essen.

The food isn't cheap, but it's definitely worth the price. Very tasty and large portions. Staff Always friendly and nice when you call and open to special requests. We are regular customers and have only ever ordered online. We would like to eat there soon too.

Perfect! Very large portions, very tasty, prices absolutely reasonable!

Incredible schnitzel and great service!

Super friendly, great service and the schnitzel was freshly made👌👌👌👌

Everything is great, the food is fantastic, the service is hospitable A piece of home We will definitely come again ❤️🥰👌

Ristorante a pochi passi da Charlottemburb. Ambiente moderno, non molto in stile tedesco. Buona accoglienza da parte della proprietaria (che parla poco inglese). Servizio cortese ed attento. La specialità della casa è la tipica schnitzel, preparata in una decina di varianti e disponibile anche nel formato XXL. Ottima qualità. Prezzi nella media (tra i 17€ e i 25€ a seconda del contorno e della dimensione).

The food was really tasty and there was enough on the plate, the price was right and the service was really nice. I can only recommend it, so we'll be back

Food was very tasty. Service very quick and friendly. Gladly again.

Food was ready super quickly and really tasty. People often asked if everything was OK or if something was missing.

Fantastisk betjening som var sød og venlig. Lækker mad, deres schnitzel er super. Stedet er et besøg værd, man bliver ikke skuffet

Spontaneously found it near the hotel without a reservation on a Saturday evening with four people. Super friendly, nice atmosphere made with love. And the food was also very tasty and special requests were catered for in a completely uncomplicated manner. Anytime again when we are back in Berlin 😊👍

Tuvimos un almuerzo inolvidable en este restaurante! Desde el momento en que llegamos, el servicio era absolutamente excelente — atento, amable y genuinamente cálido. Cada plato que probamos era simplemente delicioso, hecho con ingredientes de alta calidad y bellamente presentado. Era el cumpleaños de mi novio, y el personal fue más allá para hacerlo especial. Nos sorprendieron con un postre de cortesía y una bebida después del almuerzo, haciendo la celebración aún más memorable. Además, compartieron muchas risas con nosotros, creando un ambiente alegre y acogedor. Muchas gracias a todo el equipo por hacer nuestra noche tan maravillosa. Sin duda volveremos! Muy recomendable!

A great restaurant! Excellent food, friendly service and a pleasant atmosphere. The schnitzel was perfect and the desserts were delicious. Definitely worth a visit – I’d love to come back!

A completely successful visit! The Gasthaus Kater Alex impresses with its warm atmosphere, attentive service and delicious food. From the quality of the food to the coziness of the atmosphere, everything was perfect. I felt very comfortable and would love to come back. Absolutely recommended!

Definitely does what it promises: very tasty food - would be happy again at any time 🤩👍🥳

We had reserved a separate area in the back for a family celebration. The service was simply top. Super friendly! Everyone enjoyed the food... from the cabbage roulade to a schnitzel and knuckle. The desserts (Pallatschinken, Black Forest cherry cake, etc.) were also very good. There was nothing to complain about 😉 It was our first time there but definitely not the last time.

Amazing food, and lovely staff! The Weiner Schnitzel was one of the best I’ve ever had!

Enjoy your meal. Great service!!!

We came to eat there on New Year's Eve. The food was good. The food we ordered didn't come when we ordered, so we had to wait a short while for the right food we ordered. Suddenly the wine we wanted was no longer available. When paying, there was suddenly a problem with the card, so we had to pay in cash. But overall a good restaurant.

Good ambience and friendly service

Fantastic authentic German food, the Wiener Schnitzel was fantastic, lovely friendly staff and lovely atmosphere! I brought my English friend here to experience proper German Cuisine, thank you 🙏🙏

We had a very nice waitress. The food was average, but the portions were very large.

Really good Wiener schnitzel and nice service 😊

No credit card accepted which is not informed anywhere.

Wonderful food and service! Well served dishes. I recommend!

Everything was great and delicious. Thanks for the nice evening

Reception and hospitality were incredibly friendly and helpful. The meals were tasty and more than enough in size. Second helpings were always offered. Thank you for the lovely hospitality. Any time!!!

We celebrated a Christmas party there with 18 people and everyone was very happy! The food was good and plentiful, the prices were reasonable and the innkeepers were very nice and accommodating! We'd love to come back! Great location!!!

Very good atmosphere, great staff, good food

¡No te pierdas este restaurante! Excelente comida y servicio. Nos recibieron cálidamente cuando entramos y nuestro servidor hizo recomendaciones increíbles sobre cerveza y comida. La comida fue una de las mejores que hemos tenido en nuestro viaje de varias ciudades a Alemania. ¡Esto es imprescindible!

Convenience Food vom feinsten. In unschschlagbarer Geschwindigkeit auf dem Tisch. Undefinierbares Fleisch Panade Verhältnis und so ein plattes cordon bleu habe ich noch nie gegessen

Very good selection of food. The XXL schnitzels are really big. Great place

Nice restaurant, large portions, XL schnitzel was really mega! Furthermore, the food was delicious, served quickly and all for a reasonable price.

If you're looking for something to eat here in Berlin, you've come to the right place 👍🏻 Searched - found - went there Super nice staff who also fulfill special requests. Food was super delicious

Lovely restaurant, staff so friendly and food delicious. Would highly recommend. Come hungry and you won't be disappointed!

Visitado un lunes por la noche como una fiesta de cinco. El propietario no podría haber sido más acogedor. El menú es comida típica alemana que está bien cocinado con el propietario armando un entrante muy agradable.

Tuvimos una experiencia gastronómica excepcional en Gasthaus Kater Alex, que merece 5 estrellas! El ambiente acogedor y el servicio acogedor nos hizo sentir como en casa. El menú ofrece una deliciosa selección de platos tradicionales alemanes, todos preparados con cuidado y llenos de sabor. Las porciones eran generosas, y los precios eran razonables para la alta calidad de la comida. Si estás en Berlín y buscas una auténtica comida local, este restaurante es una visita obligada. Muy recomendable!

Very friendly and helpful staff

We felt very comfortable. The service was great and the food was great!

An absolute highlight in Berlin! The Gasthaus Kater Alex offers a wonderful atmosphere, which is rounded off by the charming and attentive service. The menu is diverse and creative - every dish is freshly prepared and tastes excellent. Clear recommendation for anyone who wants to experience excellent food in a warm and authentic Berlin restaurant. I'll definitely be back! We were there two evenings in a row.

It was my brother's birthday today and he spontaneously picked me up from work and invited me to dinner. I was in the mood for schnitzel so we looked for something nearby. The inn has a very cozy atmosphere. Tool set tables and everything very clean. I decided on Jägerschnitzel with fries and rice. My brother went for a small salad and Čevapćići with rice and chips. A whole salad bowl came, huge in size. We couldn't even do it with two of us. Both of our dishes were super tasty, fresh and also huge portions. I didn't quite finish mine. The staff was so lovely. They noticed that it was my brother's birthday and then the landlady came after dinner with a surprise cake. Chocolate cake with candle, warm waffle sauce and cream. The staff sang a birthday song and many guests sang along. We were totally touched. We were asked very discreetly several times whether everything was OK or whether we had any further wishes. So very nice. It's really rare these days. We were totally impressed. Then we went to the toilet and were amazed at how clean it was. The store was fully booked on Tuesday evening. We had had several drinks. The price was more than justified for so much service. A really nice birthday party. Thanks for that. We'll definitely be back. Finally found a great restsurant again. It's become very difficult these days.

In the meantime there have been two visits to the Kater Alex inn. If it's right, you'll be happy to come back. That's exactly what I did. Very friendly welcome, fast service, super delicious food. I'm already looking forward to the next visit. Then enjoy a “schnapps from home”. If you want to eat a delicious Wiener Schnitzel, you should go to Alex the cat. There is also an XXL version, but only the absolutely starving guest can manage it.

You do not come here for the fancy atmosphere, nor do you come here for fine dining, nor the wide menu so everyone in the family can try something different. However... if you want authentic German cuisine and one of the things that we love and always try different versions of and always HAVE to get whenever we are in Germany for dinner - then you also should try and come here to get a (Wiener) Schnitzel!! Here you get good food, great taste and lastly but not least you get good service from these nice people!

The combination of delicious food, attentive service, and a warm atmosphere made for a memorable evening. Whether you're looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion, enjoy a casual dinner, or explore new flavors, should be at the top of your list. I’m already looking forward to my next visit to try more dishes from their impressive menu!

Super cozy and warm service as if you were friends of the house! We'd love to come back! Best cabbage roll ever!

We took our school group of 30 for dinner. Alex was easy to communicate with via email, ensuring that on arrival everything was ready for us. The food was fantastic and the service brilliant. Alex and his staff ensured our group had a great dining experience while in Berlin!!

My father and I ate here, while on a vacation to Berlin, as an early evening meal. The waitress, or maybe the owner, 'Sonni' was absolutely fabulous... even with the language barrier we were able to communicate fairly well. The meals were large, delicious, and prepared in a timely manner. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting deliciously prepared 'comfort' foods. Thank you, for a lovely experience, and for the Schnapps.

An oasis for good food and an absolute bright spot in Berlin! The food tastes incredibly good. No matter whether it's Königsberger Klopse or schnitzel... everything tastes really good, just like grandma used to make! I would like to give more than 5 stars. I particularly liked the champion's outside of the schnitzel 👍

Very tasty food and particularly attentive and friendly service.
