Lebensmittel in Mitte in Berlin

I love this place, so special!!! Big and tasty schnitzel, the waiters are wonderful! See you soon…❤️

It was outstanding! Many thanks to the kitchen for the extra requests and many thanks for the nerve-racking service!

Come on. 5 Euros extra for the Preiselbeeren?! I was a regular. It’s getting ridiculous

This place used to be really good and I used to come a lot when I was working in the area. I came back today and had a terrible experience: prices are crazy high, service is grumpy, and food became mediocre. Also, self service at this price range is pretty crazy. I will not come here again.

Bad atmosphere, I felt sorry for the staff who were great

It is a fantastic place to enjoy high-quality local food. It is not very big but the atmosphere is pleasant. The only downside is that they only accept cash, and that in 2025 makes me unable to give them 5 stars. I will return to eat there without a doubt.

Great service and mega schnitzel. Sick kaiserschmarn. Also the quince schnapps Mega

We randomly came upon this restaurant and the service was amazing, the atmosphere reminded of old Germany and the food was delicious especially the beef cheeks, the meat was tender and flavourful.

The treatment to some members of their staff is inadmisible. One foreign lady was treated horrendously in front of the customers. I am no longer supporting any inhuman businesses.

Delicious food and super friendly service.

I hardly ever write reviews but have to here. I went here about a week ago and saw an elderly man who I assume was the manager shouting at his staff, he looked drunk. Seeing other reviews it looks like not the first time. Avoid at all costs

The service was great, friendly people, running for their lives though. Might've been a tad understaffed. Both the braised Bavarian pork and the wienersnitzel were not inexpensive but worth the money.

Das Borchardts Berlin hat Konkurrenz! Im “Lebensmittel in Mitte“ gibt es ein geniales ebenbürtiges Wiener Schnitzel mit Kartoffelgurkensalat. So soll ein Wiener Schnitzel sein. Die Speisekarte ist sehr gut, die Auswahl ist groß und man findet viele tolle Gerichte. Das Ambiente ist gemütlich und der Gastraum liebevoll gestaltet. Einzig man sitzt auf Holzbänken und Holzstühlen. Aber das schmälert die Stimmung nicht. Ein mega freundlicher Service ist noch erwähnenswert. Dieses Restaurant ist unbedingt einen Besuch wert.

Bad service and terribly overpriced

THE SERVICE IS TREATED POORLY IN THIS RESTAURANT Probably the worst experience I've had in Berlin so far. I saw a man, who I assume is the owner, be extremely violent with a service girl, to the point that the girl left the place. I would never go to a place where people who work are treated like that again, even if the food is amazing, which is far from the case as everything was cold and nothing tasted good. Do not go to this store or become an accomplice to labor abuse.

Cozy atmosphere. Mega schnitzel. Not very comfortable chairs.

Came here a couple days ago and saw the obviously very drunk owner shouting at someone on his staff in front of the whole restaurant. Needless to say there was a horrible and awkward atmosphere for everyone there. Unless that sounds like a place where you’d like to eat, then I would stay away.

This deserve higher price. Food was delicious. All we ordered was good and tasteful.

Best restaurant on site. The schnitzel is second to none.

Small place, it's best to book. The quality of the food is amazing and the service excellent, with attentive and helpful wait staff. I highly recommend.

In a large group of 11 people, we enjoyed a very tasty, hearty, but also very fine southern German meal in a special ambience. Thank you for the great service and individual advice.

They have the best schnitzel I've tried so far - simply amazing! The prices are a little higher, but absolutely reasonable for the service offered. There is a huge selection of wines with something to suit every taste. If I had to choose a restaurant in Berlin, it would definitely be this one!

Title: Tough Pheasant, Smooth Billing Practices To be fair, not all of the evening's main dishes were bad. But where there is light, there is also shadow - and it started with a pheasant, tough as an old sneaker. After a polite complaint, the dish was served again - but this time it was overcooked, without any trace of juiciness. The promised digestif to make up for it also found its way onto the table, but also onto the bill. The real highlight, however, came with the billing: we were presented with a card reader without a word - without an invoice. Only when we asked did it turn out that they had given themselves a generous 20% tip. The previously voluntarily given tip? Of course retained. Double is probably better. The illegally invoiced money was reluctantly refunded, but the aftertaste remains: if invoices are only handed out upon request and such “coincidences” occur, the whole thing seems less like an oversight... This leaves an impression that puts even an overcooked pheasant to shame. Given the responses to criticism so far, I am curious to see what elegant response will follow here.

Beautiful amazing food authentic German.

Outstanding in every sense of the word.

Nice shop and with a nice atmosphere. Very polite staff. Nice schnitzel, although €31 might be a lot.

Very pleasant meal with an “in its own juice” setting. The choice of dishes is quite wide but the prices are indeed high, which nevertheless remains consistent with this type of restaurant. On the other hand, the waiter brought us a wine “that he recommended” without telling us its name, so we found out the price at the end. A little disappointed not to have been able to get advice with the map in front of us. Very big disappointment at the time of payment when we were told that they do not accept credit cards... forced to walk two streets to find an ATM... we would have liked to have been warned in advance.

Super nice service and super tasty food. So much better than the current review. Can definitely recommend!

Fabulous schnitzel and beef cheeks, pheasant with excellent risotto, excellent beer, fast and friendly service, the location is the best: the TV tower stands out on the pavement, magic! Too bad about the access to the bathrooms, indecent.

La prima volta venuti qui siamo stati accolti benissimo, la seconda volta il titolare molto scortese solo perché avevamo chiesto un tavolo più all’interno del locale e lui ci ha risposto che potevamo andare via se non ci piaceva il tavolo assegnato ( che poi non era il nostro ma di altre persone

Nice atmosphere, the schnitzel was very tasty and the size was sufficient. The vegetarian dish with goat cheese, on the other hand, unfortunately seemed a bit randomly thrown together and the price was not justified. Unfortunately, the side dishes for 3 Wiener Schnitzels were served combined on one plate and the quantity corresponded more to an adequate portion. The same applied to the Kaiserschmarren: 3 portions were ordered, a (quite full) plate arrived, which corresponded to a maximum of 2 portions. At the end we were offered a schnapps, which we were surprised to have to pay (€6.50 per schnapps). It's a shame that the initially promising impression ultimately gave way to a diffuse feeling of deception.

Greeted in an arrogant way, I presume by the owner, we asked to have a table away from the door, the answer was either that or you can go!!! , we had a reservation and the table number was not where he wanted us to sit... the staff was kind, shame about the arrogance of the owner... We had a good dinner in a nice environment...

Un bel posticino in una via fuori dal caos. I posti sono pochi quindi conviene prenotare. Lo staff è simpatico e gentile. Il cibo buono: pochi piatti ma abbastanza ben fatti. Non è economico anzi direi un po’ sopra la media di Berlino (che comunque è cara!!!)

Good food and wine with a cozy restaurant ambiance

Nuestro guía hizo una reserva para un grupo de 14 personas mayores finlandesas el sábado por la noche. Desafortunadamente 4 miembros de nuestro grupo no pudieron participar, y debido a nuestro apretado horario no tuvimos tiempo de informar al restaurante con antelación que nuestro grupo era más pequeño. Sólo éramos 10. El propietario se enojó mucho, ni siquiera trató de escuchar nuestras excusas y se negó a servirnos. Nos dijeron que "herausgehen" de una manera enojada y extremadamente humillante. Por lo tanto, caminamos de regreso a nuestro hotel bajo fuertes lluvias y no cenamos en nuestra última noche en Berlín. Un final triste y deprimente para nuestra maravillosa semana larga. ¡Fin en la ciudad! ¿Así se trata a las personas mayores en Alemania?

An enjoyable evening in a cosy atmospheric setting. The lamb and gnocchi was particularly good. Our waiter was a little brusk to start with but was having a laugh with us by the end of the meal. Great advice on the beers we were enjoying. Thank you

The food is really good, especially the kaiserschmarn is made on the mount Olympus. However the food isn’t the reason why one has to eat here. The place is a contemporary remake of Fawlty Towers at its finest. Either you love it or you hate this place. The owner doesn’t look like Cleese but in his manners he could be his twin brother. See, eat and enjoy. In the top 3 of Berlin.

One of the best meals of my 60 years of life!!! Ox cheeks with pumpkin tartlet - a delight for the palate and tongue! We came from the cinema at 8 p.m. and the five of us wanted to go out for something to eat without a reservation, and despite the restaurant being full, chairs were moved here and there and the table was divided differently, and lo and behold - the space was created. Three of us wanted the schnitzel which was so big that it overhung the plate on both sides with delicious potato salad - everyone was very happy with the meal and I was delighted with mine. Next time I'll try the deer medallions and definitely the Viennese Kaiserschmarrn!!! The service was very nice and attentive, the atmosphere was cozy/rustic. Great recommendation!!!

We con amiche a Berlino. Siamo state in questo locale consigliato da amica di mia figlia che vive li come la miglior cotoletta di Berlino e ha rispettato le nostre aspettative. Locale piccolo e ben curato, camerieri gentili e ottimo cibo. Buon rapporto qualità prezzo Assolutamente consigliato

Greatly enjoyed reading all the hilariously savage responses to the bad reviews here, but was also a little scared. Anyway, finally made it back here after more than a decade and it’s every bit as good as I remember. Had the lamb Bourgogne and the käsespätzle and they were both magnificent. #¥%& the haters!

Went to get a bottle of red wine, one of the employees just handed us the most expensive bottle on the rack with no explanation saying this is the best. When we said that our budget is lower he just told us to pick one ourselves then and left immediately. Very rude, would not recommend shopping there.

Super nice service, the Halloween evening seemed fully booked, I just happened to pass by and a place was organized especially for me. The atmosphere is super nice, tastefully and homely furnished. I ordered the goat cheese gratin on wild herb salad with tipsy onions and red caps. It was a celebration! Big thanks to the kitchen for this wonderful taste experience. I ate very reverently and slowly, it was really a pleasure. And that's exactly why I go to a restaurant and am happy to pay for good craftsmanship. I'll definitely be back!

Very nice restaurant with extremely courteous staff. The 4 of us only ordered 2 main courses because we didn't want to eat so much with our children so late. That was absolutely okay for the staff. The food was delicious, but unfortunately the cheese spaetzle wasn't very authentic. The wine selection here is also very good. We'd love to come back.

Wonderful hospitality in the middle of Berlin, not far from Alexanderplatz, especially for lovers of hearty food. Very tasty, prices very moderate and reasonable. Only cash payment possible. Go back! 👍

Food was very tasty, nice and cute restaurant. It was just very warm.

If the cuisine and setting are correct. The service and servers are terrible. We made the effort to speak German, but this earned us some ridicule. The first ones might seem friendly. But the repetition was overdone. In addition, the waiter spoke to us systematically in German, even when we did not understand. The dishes are much more expensive than advertised on Google. Nothing below 20€ and 3/4 are above 30€ and if you ask to change an ingredient, you will be asked for a supplement. We were 2 families: 4 adults and 4 children, by simply taking one dish each we got it for €300. And to top it off, when it came time to pay, we asked if the bill could be split in two. To maintain the continuity of the detestable service, the waiter firmly refused. Even when he insisted, he remained categorical. “That’s not possible.” We do not recommend this establishment!

My personal opinion: The schnitzels were very tough and completely overpriced. The potato salad, however, was very tasty. The spaetzle were cooked and then fried again - I assume warmed up in the pan, because that's exactly how they tasted. I don't want to say anything against the drink prices - it's okay for Berlin Mitte. Wheat beer was served in normal beer glasses and not in wheat glasses. There were no salt and pepper shakers at the table. You don't get a proper invoice, just an "information print" which suggests... well. The schnitzels were listed on the menu as €26 - but on the "information print" they were listed as over €30 (which I unfortunately noticed too late as we had to move on in a hurry). A servant sat down at the guest tables outside and smoked, which I also found to be quite rude and his clothes didn't look like a well-kept atmosphere either. For such prices you can simply expect more. The service wasn't particularly friendly, but okay.

Tienen mucho vino alemán. 👍 Informal, buen ambiente. 👍 Tuvimos cordero, lo cual fue absolutamente decepcionante. Pedimos pan - no podían entregar. La comida no valía la pena comer. Pero hicimos lo que teníamos hambre. No volvemos a visitar este lugar.

Summary: ok overpriced food; at lunch order at the counter Best dish: yet unknown Dishes (- negative / = ok / + positive): = cassler with mashed potatoes and sauerkraut: - cassler: a tiny piece of meat, which was dry; flavor was fine + mashed potatoes: nice buttery well-seasoned taste + sauerkraut: well-rounded flavor, not too big a fan of the whole peppercorns Service: = order at the counter, neither friendly or unfriendly Price: - bad price for value: tiny piece of meat for €14.5 at lunch Atmosphere: = ok uncomplicated atmosphere but a bit stuffy; ale-bench seating outside which is kind of nice My rating system - i focus on the food first and foremost. I aim to be truthful and try not to be biased by friendly service or other circumstances. 5*: excellent - I am rigorous in handing out 5* ratings 4*: good 3*: ok 2*: bad 1*: terrible

Delicious German food restaurant, friendly waiters.

Friendly service, very good food, large portions.

un piccolo ristorante nel Mitte, fuori dalle strade principali che si è rivelato una bella sorpresa. Ottima cucina locale con pochi piatti ma ben fatti: ho mangiato un delizioso Roasted Pork cotto nella birra accompagnato da canederli e bevuto un'ottima birra bionda. Prezzi sopra la media ma ne vale la pena

Very nice shop with its own charm... On an evening when it was really busy, the waitress still kept a smile on her face and was able to serve all the guests appropriately. There's little to say about the food: the short menu guarantees really good dishes

Yes,, .. great traditional place.. good wines, good beers. Menu with southern German dishes with that certain something different. E.g. duck breast in chanterelle risotto with figs (!). Very nice composition. Unfortunately it failed because it wasn't fried hot enough, no crust, but almost uncut cartilage. The game was dry the time before. So from my point of view, an intervention in the kitchen in terms of care would be good. Still nice place.

At the most acceptable food. During our visit it was quite crowded and the staff really tried.

Grocery in Mitte is a very cool little restaurant with very high quality classic German food. The selection of German and Austrian wines and beer from small German private breweries is very good. The service is super friendly and the atmosphere in an old grocery store is very good. Will be my new favorite restaurant in Berlin...

Cozy, both food and the cold beers were good

We were the only guests in the restaurant in the afternoon and were seated right next to the counter. This made us feel very observed, as someone was often standing within a 3 meter radius of us. Otherwise the staff was very nice and friendly. We had the Wiener Schnitzel and the Käsespätzle. The food was very tasty, just the price was too expensive.

We found the restaurant by chance a few years ago and have been regulars there ever since when we are in Berlin. This time we tested the latest creations. Char on dark risotto with chicory and dryage duroc rack with octopus and samphire/tomato salad and fried potatoes. It was simply overwhelming again and can only be recommended. Always happy when we are in Berlin.

Delicious. Käsespätzle out of this world, and Bavarian roast pork absolutely delicious. Bert nice place to have dinner on a late summer evening.

Schnitzel and a beer 33Eurs is a bit excessive.

Very tasty and friendly service. Normal restaurant prices, fresh products have their price. We could pay by card.

Nein, das war nix. Ein gutes Schnitzel, dazu ein in Soße ertränkter Kartoffel-Gurkensalat. Bei der Bestellung: statt des Kartoffelsalates Pommes oder kartoffelähnliches? Nein, nicht möglich, weil die den einzelnen Gerichten vorbehalten sind und die Menge für eine weitere Portion nicht reicht. Die Ochsenbäckchen gut. Der Schweinebraten echtes Mittelmaß. Die Dunkelbiersoße hat ihren Namen nicht verdient (eine Brühe), die Semmelknödel zu fest und der Schweinebraten geht weicher und geschmacklich besser. Getrennt zahlen am Tisch? Nicht möglich. Die Qualität hält den Preisen nicht stand. Schade.

Difficult to post a photo, because we were almost in the dark. The staff at the restaurant are very kind, speak English and are also friendly. Good food, with a meat dish you can dine thanks also to the side dish. The prices are higher than in similar places, but the quality of the food seemed high. The only negative note is the light. The tables outside have no lighting (there is only a fake candle which makes a scene, but absolutely does not shed any light). Despite having chosen the "most illuminated" table (the only light comes from the dim and distant public lighting) we had to use the lights of our cell phones to be able to read the menus and eat. PS The other tables were less illuminated, because they were placed under large parasols that were open even at night, which prevented the lighting from reaching the table.

Accoglienza eccellente e personale super gentile, attento e disponibile. Cucina tedesca curata: abbiamo ordinato la Wiener Schnitzel e il Scheeinsbrayen abend sauerk e tutto molto buono con porzioni abbondanti. Da provare assolutamente. Prezzi un po’ alti rispetto alla media ma ne vale la pena.

We saw the owner mocking clients and being extremely impolite to both guests and staff. If you want to see for yourself, just look at the owners reaction on any negative google reviews. If you don’t wanna risk your evening getting spoiled by such negative vibes, maybe look for another place.

The food was far too expensive in relation to the quality (almost no food under 30€). Toilet underground…

Unfortunately disappointing: the food was okay but didn't justify the prices being way too high. The service was tried to be nice but unfortunately very unprofessional for a supposedly upscale restaurant. Too bad..

I visited this restaurant in the boutique area of Mitte in Berlin both yesterday and today, and I must say the experience was disappointing. Yesterday, the management and friendliness of the employee were very pleasant; a very kind red-haired girl managed everything alone with courtesy, despite there being no table service. Today, however, we encountered the owner, an absolutely arrogant, unpleasant person with a challenging look as if to say, "if you don't like it, leave". A seventy-year-old man with white hair and a goatee, his behavior was utterly inappropriate for a restaurateur. Today, the full staff was present, micromanaged by the boss. They are famous for their wiener schnitzel, but if you want it, you have to pay dearly! €31 for a wiener schnitzel cannot even be justified by the note on the first page of the menu, which apologizes for the price increase due to the VAT inclusion of 19%, (and not 50%…). Among other things, the waiter warned us that there were dangerous glass shards under our table but didn't even think of picking them up! This isn't the first time we've visited this place, as we often come to Berlin, but paying €31 for a wiener is daylight robbery. Many restaurants, for less money, don't serve you a wiener with breading that falls off the meat and is tough and dry. Remember: choosing restaurants with a good quality-price ratio means supporting capable restaurateurs. Exorbitant prices, poor service, and the owner's arrogance should not be accepted! What a shame this change of direction!

drama, pseudo owner in my opinion he didn't like the fact that I was talking on the phone in a language other than German, that I was disturbing other guests, there were European championships, lots of people on the street very loud everywhere and he complained that only I could be heard (we were sitting on the street) I don't recommend

Perfect ! The cheese pasta dish is very hearty and very good. The lady at the counter is really friendly.

Worst place I have been in 10 years. The owner made fun of my friend for the way he was chewing. He tried to confront him and the owner was turning is back at him. The food was not good and the waitresses seemed terrified of the owner. I am surprise it has been open for a while, hope it closes soon.

I had an extremely disappointing experience at Lebensmittel in Mitte. My friend and I were dining outside, and we were the only customers at the time. While we were eating, the owner walked by and made a mocking noise, imitating someone eating with their mouth open. This was clearly directed at us and felt incredibly disrespectful. When I mentioned this to the staff before leaving, they seemed uncomfortable, and the owner couldn't even look me in the eye. This kind of behavior is unacceptable and unprofessional. It was one of the worst dining experiences I've had, and I cannot recommend this place at all!

As long-time customers, we are thinking about a strange visit to this restaurant this evening: the menu hasn't changed for years, which doesn't have to be a problem. But: the food is becoming more and more mediocre and also presented carelessly (without attractive garnishes). Relative to the price, it leaves a lot to be desired. However, the appearance of the (presumed) owner towards guests was really strange when he accused them of smoking hash in an authoritarian and extremely unfriendly manner. You can point out your house rules, but you don't have to reprimand your guests in a loud voice in front of everyone present. We also had to involuntarily listen to him rudely pointing out to the (very friendly) service staff at the neighboring “staff break table” that guests don’t have to choose their own seats. Apparently the guests have to be good here so that the landlord has a good time. We would say a clear case of service reversal: Here the landlord is (still) king.

Went with my wife and son , first no babyseats , we ordered food with 2 waitresses and reminded them twice , only to have them cancel the main dish i was waiting for 1hr and tell me that i wasn’t charged for it , i came with my money, i wasn’t begging for food so i don’t care that i didn’t pay , i paid in waiting time and we already ordered a huge order , owner was stalking a waitress as her shadow , asked the waiter for a plate to put food on , had to remind him after 7min , then they came to check on our cancelled dish ( by them ) and act surprised If you sit on a big table as 2 people they will come to sit you up saying that the check isn’t fat enough to sit there I paid : 78 euro , won’t say bad on food , it was good but everything around it isn’t worth it What an awful horrible place, i don’t usually write reviews good nor bad , but trust me this is a very bad place! You didn’t pay for it , you didn’t pay for it , really ? Did you people want me to pay for what i ordered and didn’t get or what 😂😂😂😂, if you read other reviews you will find that this is a common thing in that unpleasant place

A favorite must-go in Berlin of mine since the old Bread & Butter days. Great lunch or dinner. Nice staff, which is a rarity in grumpy Berlin.

Amazing food. The quality and the presentation of the meat was really really good. The flavours were really good too. The waitress serving us was super helpful and helped making the right choice.

Good food , but very strange attitude to service . We ordered a bottle of wine which was delicious . Subsequently ordered a couple of glasses of the same wine as we enjoyed it so much . When it came it was very oxidized and clearly old . We sent it back but the waitress came and said it can’t be old because we only opened it 5 days ago !!!!! 🤣 When we asked them to open a new bottle ( they do sell it by the glass ) she said “ Oh no we can’t do that , it goes off too fast “ 🤣🤣🙄 Afterwards, having waited 20 mins for our dessert and already received the spoon and fork , we were suddenly told that the kitchen was closed and we would not get dessert !!! … Really ????? What a sad end to what could have been a lovely evening ! 😱

Nice little lunch spot. It's self-service and cash only so keep that in mind if you visit ;)

Ox cheeks was cooked to perfection. Melt in your mouth! Fried chicken with risotto was simply delicious. Great Selection of red and white wine.

Really nice shop 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 full recommendation! You have to try the Kaiserschmarrn 🤤

Small but good card. Simple dishes wonderfully delicious 😋

Hi its amazing and the best restaurant in berlin but you do not have a website. Its really most Important for long run. you can see my portfolio I am a web developer I can assist you. feel free to what's up me +8801710721953

The best schnitzel I've had in a long time. However, the potato salad was significantly too sweet.

The wiener schnitzel is perfect and inspiring. great service. Very rustic on the outside on the benches, more dignified on the tables with seating, inside there are narrow tables. toilet - well there is still room for improvement Overall, a great place to enjoy Wiener Schnitzel.

This place is lovely! You go to the bar to order and they only take cash (hence losing a star), but the food was good, the portions generous and the staff were helpful. We had the asparagus but they had plenty of other traditional German food on the menu

Nice place with a decent food and wine selection, it feels curated in a proper way. Chill atmosphere, the service is a bit slow which might be a local thing. Overall recommended to try

CASH ONLY - even though a device is there, you don't get a bill. :/ Eating and loading is otherwise great!

One of the best Wiener Schnitzels in Berlin; Highly recommended due to the (so far) always friendly service and the very good price-performance ratio. The only drawback, especially for business meals: you often can't pay by card. It would be great if they changed that

Food was great, especially ox cheeks and Kasierschmarn. Service could be a little more attentive.

I am extremely surprised by such positive reviews. I actually went there because of all the positive reviews. I am extremely disaapointed. I have been there today. The quality of food, speed of serving, taste, etc was all at best mediocre. I swear there was literally no salt in the food whatsoever. They served the steak without asking how cooked I want it, the personnel are not warm and even do not seem to enjoy their job. BUT the most important thing is it is EXTREMELY overpriced. Seriously, I am fine paying 150 euro for 3 people but this food, no way! I still could not believe why there are so many people sitting in there. Oh, they brought a different sauce and when confronted to change, it was as if we made a mistake!

very nice staff and good food. What more do you want :-)

Loved my experience here! Really love the outdoor seating and the look of the place. Found it to be on the pricier side but all the food looked amazing. Loved the schnitzel and although the breading separated from the meat very easily, it was so light, tasted great and didn’t seem too oily either!

Although I can't rate the food or the ambience, I would still like to share my negative experience. There are no public sanitary facilities in the area, which is why my friend politely asked in the restaurant if she could go to the toilet. Even when she tried to pay a fee, she was turned away on the grounds that they were customer toilets. She then wanted to order some water so she could go to the toilet. This was also rejected because you have to sit at a table to use the toilet in this restaurant. The waitress said there were no free seats at the moment, even though the bar stools at the counter were empty and some of the tables inside were empty. Domestic law is all well and good, but in my opinion that is almost inhumane.

On a balmy 26-degree spring day in Berlin, I had the pleasure of dining at Lebensmitte in Mitte. The outdoor seating area exuded a vibrant atmosphere, perfectly complementing the delightful culinary experience. A Weiner Schnitzel and tender OX Cheek was a culinary delight, showcasing the chef's skill and attention to ingredients and execution. For dessert, the Kaiserschmarrn was a revelation - a harmonious blend of sweet, salty, and sour flavors, impeccably balanced. Throughout the meal, the staff demonstrated attentiveness while maintaining a discreet presence, enhancing the overall dining experience.

6 venner besøgte “Lebensmittel”. Vi var særdeles tilfredse. Indretning uhøjtidelig, vi prøvede hvide og grønne asparges, ko, gris og lam. Alt var vel tilberedt. Betjeningen omsorgsfuld, og musikkken — 1. klasses blues —- passede fint dertil. Ikke “haute cuisine”, ikke damaskduge. Men godt for os.

Unfortunately the argument regarding hygiene was very poor...!!!! We wanted to visit the empty restaurant with a rather small dog, but unfortunately we were denied...!!!!!! It's really a shame....!!!!!

What a schnitzel. And a potato side dish. Super!!!

Great food! And great service too, recommendable.
