Pikilia in Berlin

The visit here was an absolute highlight! Exceptionally good food, enjoyed in a pleasant, hospitable atmosphere. A mother-daughter evening couldn't have been nicer. Thanks and greetings to the boss and his team

Good Greek cuisine! Friendly service and classic ambience. You can't go wrong.

That was ......disappointing. Nice atmosphere, the side salad was good. The rest really unacceptable. My Pikilia Skaras, a typical Greek meat plate, lukewarm, the meat completely dry and there was something missing on the plate...No tzatziki that ALWAYS goes with it... Must be ordered separately for a whopping 7.50 euros... Our friends ate gyros, same situation, lukewarm meat, nothing else on the plate. Where do the good reviews come from?

The best Greek restaurant in Berlin!

Very familiar atmosphere, incredibly nice waiters and the food is delicious and fresh. Highly recommended.

Alles einfach toll: ruhige, angenehme und familiäre Atmosphäre, super Service, leckeres Essen...immer wieder toll! Eine Symphonie der Seele und des Gaumens!

Das Pikilia ist äußerst beliebt, daher fast immer voll. Es geht zu wie im Taubenschlag, der Geräuschpegel ist entsprechend. Trotzdem wird es gemütlich, wenn man mal an seinem Platz sitzt (Reservierung empfohlen!). Gute Küche, besonders die wirklich traditionell griechischen Gericht wie geschmorte Lammhaxe, die superzart und schmackhaft ist. Kalt-warme Vorspeisenplatte ("pikilia") ist sehr gut und sehr variiert. Das Gyros ist aus gutem saftigen Schweinenacken, mit angemessenem Fettgehalt. Leider ist es so gut wie nicht gewürzt. Daher leisten wir uns, wenn wir das dort essen wollen, den Frevel, dass wir unseren eigenen Streuer mit Ostmann-Griechenlandgewürz mitbringen. Bitte verzeiht uns das, liebes Pikilia! Sehr gut: die Baby-Calamari und die hausgeschnitzten dicken Pommes. Das Personal ist sehr effizient, gut organisiert aber bisweilen -kommt auf den Kellner an und auch darauf, ob man schon seit Generationen dorthin geht oder nicht- manchmal etwas überheblich und zwar aufmerksam aber nicht immer herzlich. Wartezeiten gibt es dort, aber das liegt sicher an der Küche, die zur Rush Hour (19-21 Uhr) den Ansturm an Gästen erst nach und nach versorgen kann.

sehr schöner Ort, in einer schönen Gegend, Cleanliness, sehr leckeres Essen. very nice place, in a nice area, cleanliness, very tasty food.

Best Greek in the city and the surrounding area - very, very tasty dishes... my personal highlight: lamb fillet with the homemade brown sauce!!!! The boss Georgios is always close to the customers and available for a little chat. He also selects the always very good wines! Respect!...a great restaurant with a great boss and his great team!!!! Update 10/24: consistent high quality, very good red wines, very good food, delicious dessert...we really enjoy visiting friends there!!!!!

Nice restaurant in a pleasant atmosphere. Friendly and efficient service. Everything was very tasty! The only drawback: the tables are far too close together. What is discussed at the next table does not remain a secret.

Nice atmosphere. Food tastes good, but is difficult to digest. Waiter wasn't very friendly.

The main thing about this nice shop is its delicious food and reliable service

Alles war super sehr guter service und essen ist sehr schnell raus gekommen. Meine freunde fanden alles aucv sehr gut alles insgesamt super

Very tasty food, friendly staff, nice atmosphere.

The food was delicious. Portions big enough. Lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Very nice service.

If you like Greek food, you have to go to Pikilia.

My absolute favorite Greek. The food is great, the service is attentive. The audience uplifted. But definitely pre-order.

We celebrated our wedding here at the beginning of August. It was a wonderful day, made even better by the wonderful food, friendly atmosphere and excellent service. We can only warmly recommend the restaurant, whether for a family celebration or a nice meal for two. Many thanks again to the great team. It was just a wonderful celebration with you.

Greek restaurant in the tranquil Schlachtensee with a very large outdoor terrace. Tzatziki and taramas were tasty, lamb fillet was good, unfortunately the spinach and red wine sauce were not convincing. Service was attentive and humorous.

By far the best Greek in Berlin and Brandenburg - we have been regular guests here for 25 years - any questions? 😉

wonderful buffet for starting school! The arrangement was uncomplicated and the buffet was a real highlight.

Very good Greek cuisine ☀️, the wonderful staff and the beautiful ambience make every visit an experience 😍

The food is more than good. But my reserved table, personally on site, was not registered and that for a birthday dinner... It is too full with tables that are too close together, no cosiness on the main street and the staff was too arrogant... forgetful...

Nice Greek, very nice and attentive staff. Portions were a bit smaller, but tasted very tasty

Excellent service with incredibly delicious food. Everything is fresh from starters to dessert. The wine selection is also excellent. Definitely recommended! The best Greek restaurant in Berlin.

Food was ok. But if you are almost ignored right from the start because you don't seem to be a regular customer or correspond to the clientele, you wait over half an hour for the drinks and 45 minutes before you can finally pay.

The food deserved 6 stars! Staff nice and attentive, atmosphere upscale without being stuffy. Gladly again!

The food is generally very tasty but the ambience leaves something to be desired. The tables in the interior are very close to each other, which often makes it uncomfortably loud and warm.

Best Greek in town. Absolutely recommended, the food is of top quality and the service is great. We would love to come back and look forward to the next time!

Best Greek in Berlin! Great food prepared with love. Genuine, authentic store with great service and great employees 🤩 It just doesn't get any better than this!!

That's what you want. Great terrace that can also be covered depending on the weather. Super fast attentive service staff. We feasted our way through the menu and nothing was missing. Tip Top! Perfect for family celebrations... Feel-good factor 10 See you soon..

Immer wenn ich mehrere Tage in Berlin bin, versuche ich, nach Steglitz-Zehlendorf zu fahren, um die mediterrane Küche im Pikilia zu genießen. Auch wenn es sich um ein griechisches Restaurant mit vielen Mitarbeitern aus Griechenland handelt, darf der Gast hier nicht die typische griechische Küche wie in einem 0815-Restaurant erwarten. Feinste, frische mediterrane Speisen, ob Fisch, Fleisch oder vegetarisch, zaubert das Küchenteam auf die Teller. Eine wöchentlich wechselnde Aktionskarte, auf der sich zu Ostern auch mal ein Zicklein wiederfindet, rundet die normale Speisekarte ab. Natürlich bekommt der Gast hier auch das typische Gyros, schön kross und dennoch saftig, an hausgemachtem Tzatziki. Das Rinderfilet oder die US-Spareribs von der Wochenkarte sind extrem zart und lecker. Der selbstgemachte Krautsalat ist ein Gedicht. Neben den Speisen muss aber vor allem die Auswahl an geschmackvollen und hochwertigen Weinen hervorgehoben werden. Egal ob Weiß- oder Rotwein, die Auswahl ist groß und vor allem hochwertig. Das Team besteht aus vielen authentischen Griechen, die teilweise seit vielen Jahren in diesem Restaurant arbeiten und es für die Gäste wie zum zweiten Wohnzimmer machen. Immer freundlich, mit einem netten Spruch auf Lager und vor allem gelernte Fachkräfte, die einem auch den passenden Wein zum Essen vorschlagen können. Das muss an dem Chef liegen, der abends emsig durch das Restaurant schreitet, an vielen Tischen stehen bleibt und ein Schwätzchen hält. Man kennt sich – viele Stammgäste von nah und fern schätzen die Kulinarik und auch alles drumherum. Alles in allem für mich eine der Topadressen in Berlin.

Whenever I'm in Berlin for several days, I try to go to Steglitz-Zehlendorf to enjoy the Mediterranean cuisine at Pikilia. Even though it is a Greek restaurant with many employees from Greece, the guest should not expect the typical Greek cuisine like in a run-of-the-mill restaurant. The kitchen team conjures up the finest, fresh Mediterranean dishes, whether fish, meat or vegetarian. A weekly changing special menu, which sometimes features a kid at Easter, rounds off the normal menu. Of course, guests here also get the typical gyros, nice and crispy yet juicy, with homemade tzatziki. The beef fillet or the US spareribs from the weekly menu are extremely tender and delicious. The homemade coleslaw is a poem. In addition to the food, the selection of tasty and high-quality wines must be highlighted. No matter whether white or red wine, the selection is large and, above all, high quality. The team consists of many authentic Greeks, some of whom have been working in this restaurant for many years and make it like a second living room for the guests. Always friendly, with a nice saying and, above all, trained professionals who can also suggest the right wine for your meal. This must be due to the boss, who walks diligently through the restaurant in the evening, stopping at many tables and having a chat. Everyone knows each other - many regular guests from near and far appreciate the cuisine and everything surrounding it. All in all, for me one of the top addresses in Berlin.

We go there almost every week and always receive a warm welcome, excellent food and excellent service. For me one of the top places to go for restaurants in Berlin. Thank you and keep it up dear team, you are great!

Great service, no long waiting times, see what you want straight away. Top top top top

Exceptional Greek restaurant! July 2024 A gem in the middle of Berlin-Nicolassee July 2024 • It was a culinary experience of Greek cuisine, far away from the normal Greek! The different taste experiences were truly magical. We enjoyed every single course, and there is also a rarely seen top wine selection. Great evening with great hosts plus a great price/performance ratio!!

Ein Kleinod mitten in Berlin-Nicolassee Juli 2024 • Es war ein kulinarisches Erlebnis der griechischen Küche, fernab vom normalo Griechen! Die unterschiedlichen Geschmackserlebnisse waren wirklich zauberhaft. Wir haben jeden einzelnen Gang genossen, desweiteren gibt es eine selten gesehene top Weinauswahl. Toller Abend bei tollen Gastgebern Plus ein Spitzen Preis/Leistungs Verhältnis!!

Unfortunately I can't share the good reviews regarding the food. The vegetarian pie was mainly fatty with few vegetables, a few dry lettuce leaves on the side and the dip would have benefited from a little more fresh mint. Unfortunately the quality did not correspond to the price. It's actually a shame, because the atmosphere is really nice.

Not a nice experience. Not recommendable.

The quality of the food has always been great and for me there is no better Greek when it comes to food. However, the service is really unfriendly and sometimes unprofessional! (Become) One waiter is inattentive, the other is a little Greek who has to compensate for something. Food top service flop

We love going there: very friendly and delicious Greek cuisine

I can't understand the many positive reviews. The ambience is really good, the outdoor area is stylish and elegantly designed. There were six of us, we had four different dishes and no one was happy with the food. The grill plate was very dry, chanterelles tasteless and the octopus was oily. At least the prices were high... What disappointed us most, however, was the service. The service wasn't necessarily unfriendly, but it gave the impression of being slightly annoyed. Things were constantly forgotten (without apology), empty starter plates were only cleared away after we had pointed them out, and much more. So overall a pretty disappointing experience. In any case, we won't be coming back.

Top experience! Great location, beautiful restaurant, top service and delicious food! A place you will love and remember.

Favorite restaurant. Definitely the best Greek food in Berlin

Very good quality that you can taste. Very friendly service. We felt very comfortable. Very pleasant atmosphere.

Lovely atmosphere, polite and great service from the owner to the youngest waiter, great variety of Greek cuisine (not only) with first class products. You have to visit when you're in Berlin

A really nice evening, the team is funny and accommodating, the food is very tasty and you can sit outside - the ouzo is also very tasty 😋

The quality of the food and drinks speaks for itself, as does the service. It's best to just try it out for yourself.

Great Greek. Like on vacation. Best location in Zehlendorf. Parking on the street could be difficult. Totally worth a visit. Wonderful dishes and great service!

Excellent service and delicious food. Yiannis made us feel very welcome and made our experience at Pikilia special.

Absolutely excellent service and delicious food. Yiannis made us feel very welcome and made our experience at Pikilia special.

The best restaurant in Germany by far. Delicious food and naturally perfect staff... Everything is perfect!!!

I can fully recommend this restaurant. Fantastic food and very friendly people. A huge terrace where you can enjoy sitting outside in the summer.

The food: very tasty and authentic! The service: super friendly and attentive! We felt very welcome and there was even a sweet greeting from the kitchen for the birthday child 🥰

The best Greek restaurant in Berlin 🥂🥂🥂🇬🇷 Competent and fast service grateful Marinos🥂🇬🇷🇧🇬

An excellent experience. Great delicious food and a super hospitable atmosphere. All dishes, starter, main course and dessert were very good. I'll definitely come back

I can only recommend this Greek. We had all variations of starters. The fish and meat platters as the main course were beautifully prepared. I have never eaten so well!!! And they can also have dessert. The staff was very attentive and accommodating. The excellent host, Jiorgos, and his team fulfilled our every wish. We will definitely come back. Thank you for the fun evening!

We were guests at Pikilia with family and friends and it was a really great evening! The food was fantastic and very filling, the service was very attentive. We can happily recommend this restaurant.

A culinary highlight in the south of Berlin: Pikilia When I heard that Pikilia, a Greek restaurant in the south of Berlin, was one of the best, I couldn't resist paying a visit myself - even if it meant a trip from the busy center of Berlin Mitte. And I can say with full conviction that every kilometer was worth it. The first thing you notice when you enter Pikilia is the warm atmosphere that comes from the friendly faces of the staff and the welcoming ambience. The service here is not only professional, but also seasoned with a touch of cheekiness that gives the experience a unique touch. It's obvious that the team here not only knows about the food, but is also passionate about their work and their guests. But the real highlight of Pikilia is undoubtedly the food. The food is of the highest quality and every dish is a real treat. From traditional meze like taramasalata and saganaki to delicious main courses like moussaka and souvlaki, the flavors of Greece are presented here at their best. Every bite is reminiscent of sunny days on the Mediterranean and makes you forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life. What sets Pikilia apart from other Greek restaurants is the attention to detail and use of fresh, quality ingredients. Each dish is prepared and presented with care, and you can taste it in every single bite. Overall, I can fully recommend Pikilia – although it is located in the south of Berlin, it is definitely worth a visit, especially for lovers of Greek cuisine. From the quality of the food to the charming service, Pikilia is a real gem and a place you'll want to visit again and again.

Always delicious and very hospitable. Great ambience and all the food was really outstanding.

Always an all-round perfect evening 👍

Great atmosphere, great service, the friendliest waiters anywhere, the best Greek food in town. I'll be back.

I had gyros (very tender and tasty) with fries and salad. Friendly service, very accommodating. As you know it from Greece 💕🍀😁

It's always really nice to eat there. The food is super good. You feel like you're in Greece, only the sea is missing. Be sure to make a reservation, it is always very crowded.

I can't understand the negative reviews. I also find it difficult to evaluate the noise level of other guests and the number of cigarettes smoked outdoors. What is the service supposed to do, stand up and say “shhh”? Be that as it may, the food is definitely not "standard Greek", but very tasty and well seasoned. We will definitely come back and always like to.

Great food, nice service, everything perfect Celebrated a big birthday there and it was very nice... Only recommended

You are simply amazing in everything and that says it all 🥰

We were there for the first time today and are still absolutely thrilled. The best Greek restaurant we have been to in recent years.

A nice restaurant with a good menu! The employees were all super friendly! Great atmosphere. More than just a good meal.

We were there for the first time with friends and everything was very tasty, nice service staff and very friendly. I would go there again and can also recommend the restaurant.

We discovered this wonderful Greek restaurant deep in the wild southwest of Berlin. What the cozy and stylish ambience promises, the excellent cuisine delivers with both traditional Greek specialties as well as innovative creations that change daily. The friendly service and the warm hosts make the experience perfect! Thank you very much for that, we would love to come back!

The best place i ever been. I thought i tried already good greek places but this place was the best. The boss also very kind. Looking forward to going back again. Best food!!

A very nice Greek restaurant in Nikolassee. The menu is small but very good. All the dishes we have tried have been excellent. We sat 'outside' in the covered area, which was still warm, dry and cosy despite the pouring rain. Waiters were friendly. There a number of large screens usually showing Greek holiday clips. Later football was also shown on one of the indoor screens. Parking is available close by, the 118 bus stops right outside or its 10 minute walk from S-Schlachtensee.

Great restaurant with good food

Super nice. One of the best Greeks in Berlin.

First of all: This restaurant has many satisfied regular guests, which means that a lot is being done right here. We were there on a recommendation, but couldn't quite share the enthusiasm. This was mainly due to the enormous volume. Maybe shouting, loud laughter and a lot of commotion are part of a tavern, but that's not for me. I would like to be able to have a conversation with the person I'm talking to, which unfortunately is hardly possible here. My dish (lamb) was tasty; My counterpart found his Pikilia Skaras (a type of grilled plate) too dry (quote: “fried to death”). The open red wine was/is almost inedible. I wouldn't even give it to my worst enemy. Tip: If you want to eat here, you shouldn't go without a reservation, as Pikilia is packed even during the week. We will save ourselves a second visit.

Simply delicious and good in a great atmosphere.

When I'm in Berlin, I like to come here and, as always, the visit was worth it! Very tasty food, super nice service and a happy, somewhat loud atmosphere. Like on vacation.

Alles ganz gut, wir saßen draußen im überdachten und beheizten Wintergarten, an der Wand sitzen,war etwas kühl.

Wir haben hier einen unvergesslichen Abend, mit hervorragenden Wein, fantastischem Essen und einem unglaublich netten Service verbracht. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder !

Es war (wie immer) super lecker. Für mich der beste „Grieche“ der Stadt. Mediterranes Essen vom feinsten. Danke für Eure Gastfreundschaft, den tollen Service und das phantastische Essen.

Einfach TOP!!!!! Selten so gut gegessen

Ein sehr schöner Abend mit leckerem Essen von sehr guter Qualität, sehr aufmerksamen Service und einem tollen Gastwirt, wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Vielen Dank!

Ich war mit meinem Freund im neuen Jahr etwas essen. Es war wirklich super lecker! Es gibt auch Gerichte außerhalb der Karte. Unser Kellner Marino hat uns zuerst Vorspeisen gebracht (rote Beete, tzaziki, Salat und kalamaris - wirklich sehr zu empfehlen!) zum Hauptgang gab es eine köstliche Seezunge auf Empfehlung von ihm. Es war eine wirkliche Überraschung. Solch einen Service haben wir noch nie erlebt. Vielen lieben Dank Marino! Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Excellent food, really good service, mr giorgos was really kind and friendly. Totally recommend. Much better than Greece

Everything was perfect....better food even from restaurants in Greece...everyone was so kind and George the owner was so friendly and open heart with us...I recommend to have a visit there you will enjoy it...best greek restaurant in Berlin and not only

Sehr guter Grieche, bester Service von Marinos

Εξαιρετική εξυπηρέτηση, όμορφη ατμόσφαιρα, καταπληκτική κουζίνα!!!!

Ein bekanntes griechisches Restaurant in Berlin-Schlachtensee. Familiäre Stimmung in gemütlicher und rustikaler Atmosphäre. Wir sind sehr oft hier und auch unsere Sonderwünsche werden immer freundlich erfüllt.

Das beste Gulasch, das ich je gegessen habe und ein unfassbar liebevoller, herzlicher und professioneller Service. Es war rundherum alles sehr lecker, das Restaurant ist sehr stilvoll und gemütlich gestaltet. Verdiente 5 Sterne ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

Nettes Personal, leckeres Essen...

Das Essen kam schnell und die Kellner waren freundlich. Es war aber auch nicht sonderlich üppig und eher etwas trocken. Die Anrichteweise war nicht so schön und im Groben und Ganzen war das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis nicht wirklich gut. Ein Standardgrieche.

Super restaurant ! Le service était parfait, les serveurs sont très gentils et agréables. On y mange très bien, très varié et riche en goût. Le prix est raisonnable surtout pour un restaurant comme celui-ci. Je recommande grandement !

Immer nett und freundlich, leider etwas reduziertes Angebot, aber nicht ohne Grund mit hohem Zulauf

Es war mal wieder ein Fest! Das Essen wie immer erstklassig (und das kann ich als Grieche ausgesprochen gut beurteilen). Die Weinempfehlung wieder ein Volltreffer (autochthone Weine sind immer etwas besonderes). Das Personal wie immer aufmerksam, sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die Atmosphäre äußerst angenehm und wohltuend. Familie wird hier wirklich gelebt! Schön, dass es Euch gibt! Bis bald wieder!

Unser liebstes Restaurant! Die Tagesgerichte kann man blind bestellen- man bekommt da immer unglaublich gute Qualität, die man einfach auch schmeckt. Ein sehr lebhaftes Restaurant, in dem wir uns sehr wohl fühlen!!!

Πάνω από 20 χρόνια για μένα παραμένει από τα καλύτερα ελληνικό Μαγαζί στο οποίο μπορείς να γευτείς πραγματικά εκλεκτούς μεζέδες και φαγητό ποιότητας μπράβο στο Γιώργο που κρατάει αυτό το επίπεδο εδώ και 20 χρόνια ένα μεγάλο μπράβο και σε όλο το team δεν είναι τυχαίο 15 χρόνια Να έχει ίδιο μάγειρα καθόλου τυχαίο μπράβο

Meine Familie und ich hatten am Dienstag einen schönen Abend. Die Atmosphäre, das Essen und der Service waren wir gewohnt super. Vielen Dank, liebes Pikilia Team 👍🏻😊.

Nichts besonderes, Essen war gut, wenn auch etwas lieblos angerichtet. Service fand ich jetzt nicht so prall, Spinnweben hingen von der Decke.

Very very busy, but the octopus was the best I ever had. Honestly!
