Restaurant MasliNovo in Berlin

Highly recommended. Great staff and delicious food👍

Really good food and the service was first-class. I especially recommend the lamb fillet. I'd be happy to come back.

We were very satisfied in every respect and will definitely be back soon. Thank you for the wonderful time.😊

We were a group of 40 people. The buffet was beautifully presented and the food was delicious. We were all very, very satisfied. We were particularly pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of the host and the team. We would definitely and very happily come back. Many thanks to Alex and his wife.

The best restaurant in Berlin ❤️ perfect place!

Everything is absolutely amazing – highly recommended!

The food was absolutely abysmal. The tzatziki was sent back for the first course due to poor quality – what does the kitchen do? They serve the exact same tzatziki again for the second course. Either the chef was drunk or simply fanatically in love with his disgusting creation – tzatziki. The service? They understand absolutely nothing. Communication is impossible. When asked to speak to the chef – no response. No one felt responsible. Restrooms? Dirty, disgusting, unkempt. You seriously wonder when this place was last cleaned. The food: All frozen. Meat and fish – overcooked, carelessly, tasteless. Salad smothered with cheap ready-made dressing. The children's pasta? Looked like it was vomited out – that's not food, that's an outrage. Zero freshness, zero service, zero quality. Absolutely not recommended.

We recently went there for dinner and found the restaurant empty, which is unusual for a Friday at 5:30 p.m. in a central location, and thus initially raised some skepticism. However, the interior made a good impression; it seemed clean, the restaurant manager was very friendly, and there was also a very lavish "kids' corner" and our daughter started playing, so we wanted to give the restaurant a try. After all, we first learned about the restaurant through an ad in the magazine ERSTKLASSIG - the best addresses for KuDamm, Grunewald, Dahlem, and Zehlendorf, and we've always had positive experiences with the recommendations. A subsequent glance at the menu again raised skepticism: too many dishes and no clear direction – a focus on Greek, a few Italian dishes, Wiener Schnitzel, and unidentifiable items like various variations of something in a mushroom cream sauce – so it's clear that neither experts nor "passionate restaurateurs" are at work here... We should have left by now, but our daughter continued to play diligently, so we thought we'd give it a try. Unfortunately, the biggest gastronomic disappointment yet followed. The appetizer selection served included bruschetta, pickled beets, broad white beans in tomato sauce, feta mousse, tzatziki, puff pastry parcels with feta, some green salad, sloppy cucumbers, tomatoes with the stems removed, and "grilled vegetables" that consisted of breaded/fried zucchini dripping with fat. The beans, feta mousse, and tzatziki were spoiled. They tasted heavily fermented and fizzed on the tongue like champagne. When we complained about this, the restaurant manager told us it wasn't bad, but a matter of taste – everything had been freshly prepared that day, so it couldn't be bad at all. We politely declined the offered alternative of garlic bread. The main courses followed, including a minced steak stuffed with feta. This was served with the same spoiled tzatziki as the appetizer plate before it. The meat smelled unusual, so we only tasted it cautiously, and this impression was confirmed here as well. Spoiled and inedible – it looked as if it had been prepared from leftover meat, especially lamb, then frozen and heated in a deep fryer before serving. The children's pasta with tomato sauce looked like tomato soup with penne, topped with Parmesan shavings. The baby calamari wasn't fresh, was frozen, and also tough. So we sent everything back and asked to speak to the chef – unfortunately, this request was denied. Instead, the restaurant manager spent about 10 minutes on the phone with her boss, who was supposedly due in a few minutes. However, we didn't want to wait any longer – it was now after 7 p.m., we still had to eat at a proper restaurant, and it was already too late for the little girl. We therefore asked them to bring the bill for the drinks, as everything else was inedible and therefore not eligible for payment. However, the restaurant manager refused – threatened to call the police and demanded €50. Because we were annoyed/hungry and the little girl was tired, I agreed. Otherwise, I would have gladly waited for the police, who would surely have immediately called the public order or veterinary office to revoke the license. The feedback to this review is sure to be like all other negative ones: we have no idea, we're being rude, and we're supposed to provide proof – so feel free to decide for yourself whether you want to take the risk and pay for an experience that isn't worth it, or whether you'd be better off going straight to a proper restaurant where everything is as it should be ;)

We went to lunch at this restaurant, which offers special lunch menus. We had the gyros (M4), the meat pasta (M3), and the moussaka (menu). The dishes were pretty average: the salad that came with the dishes looked like it came out of a supermarket bag, the sauce was average. The service was good, however, and we ate outside (there is a large terrace). We were disappointed.

My parents invited me here for my birthday. It was really delicious. All four dishes/starters were great. We were a bit skeptical at first because it was pretty empty, but when we saw how new the restaurant was, we wanted to leave a nice review because we were really very satisfied! :)

I was able to enjoy a comfortable meal in a quiet and classic atmosphere. I ordered Gorgonzola pasta and beef and potato dishes and they were delicious.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A culinary highlight in Berlin! From the very first moment, MasliNovo captivates with its stylish ambiance and attentive, friendly service. The menu impresses with creative combinations of seasonal ingredients – the homemade appetizers and the tenderly roasted main course are particularly recommended. The sweet potato and goat cheese crostini to start and the perfectly cooked rack of lamb were a real treat. The matching wine selection also complements the menu perfectly. A well-thought-out overall experience: a feel-good atmosphere, a fine dining concept, and a passionate team. Highly recommended for a relaxed dinner for two or a special occasion.

Very nice restaurant, 100% recommended. Friendly and professional staff, amazing food and a nice playground for kids.

Great food. Very kind staff! A guarantee, highly recommended.

Simply top-notch and world-class – outstanding food and wine, as well as the service. 🤩 It should be like this everywhere, and the price-performance ratio is simply perfect! Thank you for the absolutely remarkable evening and dinner.

Lovely meal, very attentive service, good food - the lamb filet was super. Nice quiet atmosphere - just right for a Sunday evening.

A true insider tip in Berlin! Lovingly prepared, fresh Mediterranean food. Attentive service. Everything we tried was spot on. Vegetarians will definitely enjoy it. Aleksandar exudes Greek spirit here. Thank you for that. We'll definitely be back.

Nice restaurant, also nice outside area and service. Unfortunately the food has deteriorated massively. Small portions that were fried to death. The taste is rather below average at higher prices. Not worth it anymore. Too bad.

A really large terrace invites you to linger under a tree in summer. The service is polite, humorous and charming. Only the chef still has to work on himself a little. The tzatziki was almost garlic-free, the anchovies and calamari were fried hard and dry. The grilled vegetables were okay. Edith 2023: the tzatziki is still garlic-free, but the calamari is now crispy and delicious!

Great service and very, very tasty food. Can definitely be recommended!

The food is very tasty and special/extra requests are catered for.

A very nice, cozy restaurant. The ambiance was lovely. The food and service were also very satisfactory. A very pleasant evening. Thank you.

I've passed by it many times and this time I spontaneously reserved a table. Inconspicuous from the outside, it is inviting and cozy inside. The service was friendly and accommodating. The food was really very good and really tasty. We'll definitely be back. Addendum: now it has become an integral part of our Berlin trips and every time it is really soooo delicious and such a great service team.

The food was excellent, the service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was very cozy. We felt completely comfortable and will definitely come back. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to enjoy good Mediterranean cuisine in Berlin!

Very nice restaurant. Lunch is always a good deal. The interior is very nice and the service is super friendly.

The homemade lemonades are highly recommended. Not so sweet, but very tasty. The dessert (tiramisu) was freshly prepared and creamy and delicious. Our meal was also very good: vegetable pan and feta gratin. The cheese was really good. The (garlic) bread was ok, but I would have liked a more solid, home-baked bread here. That was the only thing I didn't quite like. Service (our waitress) tipitopi, 1a. Super attentive and friendly. And the ambience was cozy and very pretty. Good value for money, a thoroughly enjoyable evening. We would love to come back.

The food was extremely good, the staff was very friendly and accommodating and the ambience rounded it all off.

Ground floor restaurant therefore well suited for disabled people. Very tasty Mediterranean dishes in normal portion sizes at normal to slightly higher prices. Public transport connections are also good as the bus stop is also nearby (bus route 204 also runs when the BVG is on strike) 😊👍

Some foods are really delicious but some are totally opposite

I can only recommend the restaurant! Also suitable for babies/toddlers (play area/changing table etc.)

Mediterranean food at its best in Berlin. The service has been very attentive with a table of 20 people of different nationalities that was not easy to handle. And everything worked magnificently for some first-class starters and a few seconds, which in my case positively surprised me when the snitchel came. I will repeat.

Unfortunately, the pasta with tomato sauce for the children didn't work at all. The calamari and all dishes in Metaxa sauce were good. The service was very nice, quick and extremely customer-oriented. The play area for children is great!!

Highly recommended for families with small children, as there is a really great play area and the waiter was very child-friendly. Our food was delicious too!

Nice atmosphere, very friendly service, but when it comes to food, especially the prices, there is a real need to catch up.

Very nice restaurant with excellent food and very good service. Unfortunately, the latter in particular is no longer a given, but at MasliNovo it works. Food came quickly, the waitresses were always attentive without being intrusive - we can only recommend it!

Fast and friendly service. Food was very tasty and sufficient.

Maria in particular is a highlight here. Top service, good food!

We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the delicious food. Very nice service and great ambience. Gladly again when we are in Berlin.

Can highly recommend this restaurant. Very tasty. Incredibly nice staff... Great atmosphere again and again 🤩😍

Always a lovely evening at MasliNovo.

One of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Berlin

Very nice food and service👍😁❤️ Christmas food is very nice 😋

It was a very tasty gyros in a very great atmosphere.

I recently went to Masli Novo and I highly recommend this restaurant! As soon as you enter, you are greeted by a modern yet cozy atmosphere - a perfect mix of traditional charm and stylish design. The atmosphere is calm and inviting, ideal for a relaxing evening. I would particularly like to highlight the meat dishes. The grill plate was simply outstanding – tender, juicy and cooked to perfection. The selection of other meat specialties is also impressive, from tender lamb ribs to spicy grilled dishes. The quality of the meat and the taste balance of the sauces and side dishes are really top! The service was also excellent – ​​friendly, attentive and competent. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to Masli Novo!

We took creamy pasta with champignons and grilled pork, everything just melts in your mouth and the pork is so tender that you don’t even need to use it overnight, the service is fast and pleasant, the portions are perfect, even large

I was very positively surprised - cozy atmosphere, a lot of choice at reasonable prices (the lunch menu in particular is very inexpensive) and friendly service 👍

Delicious food and friendly, quiet atmosphere. You can feel comfortable here.

Very good food and particularly friendly staff

service was great and food came fairly quickly. We had dinner here based on recommendation. Every dish was fresh and flavoured really well! My favourite was the calamari :)

A beautiful restaurant with excellent food (the goose breast was great! & also chicken MasliNovo…), attentive service and a great atmosphere. Plus on top a play area for the children to pass the time ;-)

Nice ambience, friendly and quick service. Very tasty food. Definitely worth more than just a visit.

Delicious food, family friendly and good service. Thanks to Maria for good service.

Starters... ...we wanted to have it and then see what was available in the restaurant of our choice. Since most starters are available in a Mediterranean restaurant, we looked for them and found them with MasliNovo. We shared various starters and then there was a main course, also to share. Everything was freshly prepared and each had its own good taste. The portions were also very pleasant and we were well full. The restaurant is large and offers many seats. Unfortunately there wasn't much going on during our visit, which wasn't unpleasant for us because of the quiet. The furnishings are cozy and invite you to stay. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive - that made us feel very comfortable here. The prices were completely ok and completely appropriate for our dishes.

We were there with a larger group. 3 course menu with a vegetarian alternative for the main course. The food was good, the service was very friendly and the ambience was good too.

The food is great! The atmosphere too) I recommend

Delicious food and a cozy atmosphere! We'd love to come back.

As a precaution, we booked a table for 3 people online, which was completely easy. We arrived a little late but a quick call to the restaurant fixed the problem. We were welcomed by friendly staff. As a gift from the house there was some bread and olives. Finally, an Uzo. We were satisfied with just under €90 for three people (including wine and starter). According to a brief estimate, the restaurant can accommodate over 60 guests inside. Nevertheless, it is cozy, well located and you sit very comfortably. The food was ready quickly and tasted just like you would expect from a Greek. At the table you found salt, pepper, olive oil and basil vinegar. Each dish was accompanied by a beautifully presented salad with a kind of honey mustard dressing.

Feel-good atmosphere, super nice team and very tasty food. We'd love to come back.

OMG.This was so good i really liked the tables and the food waa great too the chairs were extremely comfrotable and as i said the food was great.The service was amazing.

The high rating is not surprising. The service was very attentive and the food was delicious for me. Please keep it up

Overall ok, but nothing more. Service very friendly. The restaurant is well maintained. But the food doesn't stand out. I wouldn't go there again, it's a shame actually. This really does get better.

We’ve been here on two separate visits to Berlin. Both times the people have been phenomenally nice and helpful in recommending to us foreigners what dishes would work with our groups various allergies and preferences. The food also tasted really good. Highly recommend this to anyone exploring Berlin

Wonderful experience.. the waitress was kind and food was delicious 😋.. our 2 hear old daughter was engaged in the small play area so we had our food in peace..

Perfect restaurant, service is excellent! ✨

Very nice place! Food very tasty, warm service, felt very comfortable 👍 Maria, the waitress has served incredible, thank you! Hope we will come once again in future 🙏

Great food, great service, would be back again.

Nothing is left to be desired here: a beautiful, cozy restaurant with a small play area for children, very friendly and courteous service and delicious food for the whole family!

Went there to eat at the birthday party today, we can only recommend it, service was top notch, the quality of the food was excellent. Nothing was missing. Thank you for that!!!

Everything was very tasty. You have to try Dorada and Lahm!

Yesterday we were spontaneously there with a group. Very nice and attentive service. The food was super tasty and was served quickly despite the large order. 100% recommendation

Welcome and friendly staff, great food at a reasonable price.

Delicious food, very friendly and good service! If we ever return to Berlin, this is definitely a restaurant we will eat at again

There were three of us and we were here spontaneously. A really lovely evening with excellent dishes in all courses. The service already has unique selling points. We were completely satisfied. Gladly again.

Great service and very tasty food! The atmosphere is very pleasant, a few more vegetarian options would be great

I chose this Greek restaurant because of the very good reviews and the current 4.8 stars are more than deserved. I had baked feta as a starter and New Zealand lamb fillet as my main course. Both tasted really excellent. And the service staff is also very friendly.

One of the best experiences I’ve had in terms of both service and food quality! Our host, Alex, was exceptional—truly above and beyond. I ordered the daily special, mussels with tomato and wine sauce, and the food was incredible. I was tempted to order another serving because it was just that good! I highly recommend this place.

Nice hospitality Authentic greek food We had the mussels dish and it was so delicious. Highly recommend Definitely will go there again

We've been here several times, once again with friends and we all enjoyed it again. Food was good and tasty, will definitely come back.

Great service, delicious food, everything was tip top. Gladly again!

This was our second meal in Berlin, and we were not disappointed. The restaurant was clean and elegant with the most delicious food, which was extremely reasonably priced. We only wish we had carried more cash to give a better tip for the lovely waitress who served us. Highly recommend this place to anyone whom is staying/ visiting the neighbourhood.

We came across the restaurant by chance and have to say that it was exactly what we wanted. The service staff was very friendly, the food was at the table very quickly and despite the fact that it is in the middle of Berlin and on a street, it was very, very quiet and a pleasant atmosphere. We had only ordered vegetarian dishes and were very impressed with how nicely everything was prepared. For me a 10/10 - absolute recommendation.

We had two very excellent lamb dishes and were served extremely friendly and courteous. We would love to come back...

Best lamb shank in Berlin. Slow cooked with meat falling off bone

Attentive staff with good food...

Very friendly service. Not crowded. The grilled skewer was very tasty

Amazing restaurant for reasonable prices

Very great and such a delicious meal!!! 👍

The waiters are so sweet, but the €20 Musaka was old and warmed in the microwave. The €25 grill plate was a sad dish of small overcooked pieces of meat. The fried calamaris portion was tasty but too small. This restaurant is not worth what they charge.

Very good food and absolutely top service. Recommended😀

Good food and great service. With an extra play area for children. We recommend.

Top!Top!Top! Only recommended Delicious fresh and good service. I wish there were more quality restaurants like this...

Super nice service, excellent food. Nice atmosphere, very tastefully decorated inside. Outdoor area is also located directly at a busy intersection. But the food makes up for it. Toilets clean. Clear recommendation!

Our waitress Maria is amazing, hospitable and joyful! A great place for Greek food…home away from home!

Delicious food, attentive service and nice atmosphere. We'd love to come back!

Wonderful place to go relax and eat a meal on the patio. We've already been here twice on our trip to Berlin. Maria has been our server both times and is the best. Attentive service and was very accommodating to our toddlers. They even have a little play area inside to entertain the kids. Food is delicious as well. We'll be back!

Food and service was top notch. Lovely place to spent your time.

Very friendly, food portion and quality excellent. We'll definitely be back

Our server was wonderful and food was very food. Great neighborhood restaurant

Food wasn't tasty, salad was floating in the water, vegetables tasted horrible

A wonderful place. Excellent and fast service. Wonderful staff. Beautiful location. I recommend you to visit this really wonderful place and enjoy the wonderful food and the wonderful ambience. The word AWESOME is too small to describe this place, although I used it in every sentence. - I definitely recommend it to everyone to visit...
