Ristorante San Marino in Berlin

We ate a bland, indefinable lasagna. The salad was delicious. So was the bruschetta on the house. The service was very friendly. Unfortunately, we realized too late that the bill couldn't be right. The waiter begged us to pay in cash. They apparently added the grappa, which was on the house, to the price. There was no bill.

Nice, cozy atmosphere. Everything is freshly prepared. Would definitely go back. I would recommend it.

Every two years, I'm in Berlin, near the San Marino. Whenever I'm there, I'm not recognized, but I'm welcomed like a regular. The food is really good, and the San Marino has become a regular stop on my arrival day and also for our company to spend the evenings there. A big thank you for this wonderful atmosphere and the friendly service.

Service was lousy, I ordered Mozzarella Caprese and Carpaccio - the food was an absolute insult, not recommended

Spaghetti Carbonara was just a creamy sauce and bland. Card payments only accepted for amounts over 25 euros! Where do you find that these days!?!? Especially in a restaurant. And in the end, the card terminal didn't even work – supposedly! Of course, there was no receipt (best regards, tax office).

Great atmosphere and fantastic food. Highly recommended.

Really good food and a cozy and friendly atmosphere and service. The place had a really good chef, chef Alberto. A large selection of wines, probably the best I've ever tasted. 🍾🥂🌴I recommend this restaurant, unique.

Very good food and good service. Also a good selection of wines. I recommend the restaurant to everyone.

Delicious and high-quality Italian food, not to mention the wines, the best I've ever tasted. I recommend, among others, Vitello tonnato and pasta with scampi. The other options we ordered have also been delicious. It's worth coming here even from afar😊The friendly and cheerful staff takes good care of the customers. The atmosphere was special.

We are three sisters, two with walkers and one in a wheelchair. As a wheelchair user, I can't get into the elevator with my aid to visit my oldest sister (91). We meet occasionally at the San Marino. We are happy and grateful for this opportunity. We feel very comfortable at the restaurant. Thank you very much.

Many thanks to the staff at San Marino for always making us feel welcome. Great food with artistry that continues to please the palates of all our friends and children. It is clearly made with love and passion. We appreciate all the effort made by the entire staff to make our visits beautiful, charming, and memorable. We always invite our friends and family to SanMarino knowing it will please everyone and they will depart with having a joyful evening with beautiful memories made.

I went to Ristorante San Marino with my boyfriend, and we were very satisfied. The food was truly delicious, freshly prepared, and beautifully presented. The portions are generous, and there's a wide selection of Italian specialties. The staff was very friendly and attentive; we immediately felt at home. The atmosphere is also pleasant and cozy, and the terrace is particularly lovely. We will definitely be back and highly recommend the restaurant!

The best restaurant in the world 😍 What a delicious meal and the best service 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

An absolute highlight! This Italian restaurant brings true dolce vita to your home. The pizza is perfect: a thin, crispy crust, fresh ingredients, and an aroma that immediately reminds you of Naples. I was particularly impressed by the Margherita – so simple yet full of flavor. The service was also warm and attentive; you immediately feel welcome. A glass of Italian red wine, and the evening was perfect. Anyone who loves authentic Italian cuisine shouldn't miss this restaurant. 5 out of 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The San Marino restaurant is simply sensational! Everything is just right here: The ambiance is beautiful and inviting, the food is freshly prepared every time and simply sensationally delicious. The service is first-class – always friendly, attentive, and courteous. What's especially nice is the warm welcome: anyone who makes a reservation always gets a seat. Whether it's a cozy dinner, a birthday party, or a festive New Year's Eve – you'll feel completely in good hands at the San Marino. An absolute favorite restaurant that I highly recommend!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

The staff was very friendly, but unfortunately the salad was missing feta, and one of the two pizzas was topped with salami instead of vegetarian – very annoying! Also, as has been repeatedly criticized in reviews, you don't get a bill, so you can't understand the prices – this should be changed.

Super good food, homemade pasta, fresh products, friendly service, top!

Beautiful restaurant and very friendly service. We'd love to go back :)

Very nice restaurant and great service. Really big portions. We tried salmon pasta, Hawaiian pizza, Bruscetta, Caprese

The food was delicious and well-prepared. What I found particularly disappointing, however, was that you don't get a proper bill. Instead, you're constantly offered overpriced add-ons that, unfortunately, aren't up to the mark. The waiter calculated the prices right at the table using a calculator – and it seemed rather arbitrary. It's a shame… If they were honest and transparent, I'd come more often – after all, I live nearby.

Top service, very friendly staff and incredibly delicious food!!!

Lovely Italian restaurant. You can sit outside or inside. The restaurant is located right on Prager Platz. The wait time for the food is reasonable. We've never eaten such good pizza as we did there. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. We're already looking forward to this restaurant on our next visit to Berlin.

Very friendly service, and the bruschetta was on the house as a starter (I was there alone). There are many regulars here, and the location on Prager Platz is very nice. The fresh pasta was perfect, and special requests were accommodated in a friendly manner. I'll definitely be back!

Falsches Essen gebracht, dadurch Die Wartezeit

Very business-minded. Every guest is practically forced to have a glass of wine straight away. You have to wait what feels like an eternity for the drinks, long after you've already had your food. The last time we ordered a drink, we asked for the bill after waiting 15 minutes. The reason given for not serving the ordered wine was that it wasn't the waiter's fault that he forgot to take our order. We paid in cash, the total was written down on a slip of paper. This slip was not handed over; it quickly disappeared into the waiter's pocket. Perhaps someone should give the tax office a tip.

Extremly friendly Team! 🙏🙏🙏 great food!!!

Sehr freundlich, leider stimmt Preis/Leistungsverhältnis nicht.

Restaurant San Marino – An Insult to Italian Cuisine Pizza Margherita, like it came from a freezer – tasteless and unloved. The "substitute" pasta (aglio e olio) was only edible because I was half-starving. When I was paying, the waiter seriously asked if he could add a tip because he was only charging for one dish. Thank you, how generous... Anyone who loves Italian food should definitely avoid this place. If you're a regular here, I recommend a trip through Rome, Pescara, and Palermo. Never again...!

From the exceptionally friendly, attentive and courteous owner to the truly fresh and varied salad and the excellent pizza with shrimp to the grappa, this is an unreserved recommendation for all lovers of traditional Italian cuisine.

Too smart waiter. Keeps pushing another bad bottle of red wine on you, instead of the house wine which couldn't possibly be any worse. Very insistent. Prefers to take cash, then stays on card he keeps demanding tips. Lots of locals who are probably treated well, but not a place for tourists. Italian at its worst.

For us, San Marino with Daniele is part of every visit to Berlin. Great food with great service. We always make sure you are welcome.

Was our first port of call on the day of arrival in Berlin. Great perfect beef fillet and sea bream fillet. Very nice waiter and a boss with a lot of passion.

Great food, great service, great outdoor ambience on Prager Platz. There is absolutely not the slightest thing wrong with the food. Even in Italy you can hardly find a more Italian food. The Vitello tonnato was tender with a tasty caper sauce, the aromatic buffalo mozzarella on a ripe tonnato, my pizza with real Gorgonzola - simply perfect. The waiter looked after us with passion and full commitment, a man who loves his job. And the flair of Prager Platz rounds off a successful evening.

Service = sales The bill was presented with a lot of pressure. What is advertised as a "glass" of wine ends up being a bottle on the bill. €39 for two glasses of wine and €12 for grappa (which he supposedly opened exclusively for me). Food was ok - nothing more. Such a real tourist joke! We waited 20 minutes for the drinks, but the main course came during the starter. A bad experience!

Scammy place! I ordered the small ginger ale with my dish, but instead they brought a big size drink, which costs twice as much , without asking. When I requested for a detailed bill they even refused to provide it, I only noticed their deceit because the final bill was higher than I expected. They still insisted on charging the full price at the end! Food was ok, at least eatable but not terrible.

€155 for four people. It's doable, but the food should have been better. Adequate, no doubt, but the flavor was rather bland. It was worth a visit once, but I won't be going back.

Top food, TOP waiter! The waiter with the long silver-gray hair!

The service was friendly, but unfortunately that was the only positive thing. The pizza was extremely greasy and the cheese had a chewy, bubblegum-like consistency.

Unfortunately, this restaurant doesn't offer any vegan dishes, which is a shame.

Restaurant with good food, but nothing out of this world. My spagetthi carbonara was good, but lacked seasoning. My husband's spagetthi bolognese was tastier. They didn't let us pay by card, so you have to bring cash

We thank Mr. Cüneyt for his interest and friendliness and recommend his delicious meals.

One of the better Italian restaurants, very friendly and well-disposed staff. Some food combinations are a bit questionable, the pizzas are very good. Recommended.

Food was delicious. We would particularly like to praise Alessandro's great service: great advice on food and wine, very friendly, funny and entertaining. Thank you for the great evening, we will be back 😉

Regardless of whether you are a first-time guest or a regular guest, you will always be warmly welcomed, looked after and pampered here, even if you always have special requests. 😀 Thank you very much!

We've been there several times and it's always been excellent. Today we were there with friends and it was great. Thank you 😊

Very coordinated, perfect service. Very good food. It's not the first time we've come here, but as always we have a great time.

Very tasty food. We had pizzas and rigatoni - all very good. We particularly liked the cassata, you should definitely try it.

Price-performance is top here. The pizzas are very good, pasta and dessert too. I just didn't think the bruschetta for the starter was that great. The staff is friendly and accommodating.

Very good restaurant, nice service, quickly served meals, very tasty food, pasta with shrimps is amazing (be careful, it's quite spicy)! I will definitely come back

It was undoubtedly the best restaurant we went to in Berlin. We were very pleased with both the food and the service. We had a wonderfully enjoyable evening, do not leave without stopping by.

not fresh, the pizza toppings taste like canned water

Very nice restaurant. Mega delicious food. Very happy again. Special thanks to Gino for the warm, courteous hospitality!!!!

A warm welcome. Very nice, unobtrusive advice. Enjoy your meal. Alessandro was super friendly. When we are back in Berlin we would like to come back

Charged too much several times (2x). 2 glasses 0.2 €22. We don't go there anymore

We really liked the San Marino. The service is friendly, accommodating. Especially the salads with excellently seasoned oils and spices, the bruschette and spaghetti carbonara were first class. The atmosphere is familiar and the ambience is lovingly designed. An exceptional restaurant. Great!

I can only report positive things. Super tasty food and nice staff. An insider tip at Pragerplatz in Berlin 👍🤗

Honestly speaking. Everything was almost perfect

Very nice food and an amazing waiter

Very nice host, good food, nice atmosphere

Excellent pizza, Mr. Daniele super kind, see you soon

Only one person can pay a €200 bill with a card. According to Kellner, it is impossible to pay for this with two card payments. I want to say: the food was okay, we won't be coming back.

It's a really nice place to sit outside, the restaurant is also very nicely decorated inside, the food tasted good and the service was very friendly and attentive.

Delicious food in a clean, quiet and wonderful place. And the service is good.

Food was okay, but definitely nothing special. The service was rather unfriendly, especially when we wanted to pay by card and separately. According to the gentleman, we could not and were not allowed to pay separately... I then paid for everyone with a card and wanted to give a little tip. He just said, annoyed, that he had already entered the amount and couldn't undo it. So I paid the exact amount. He then reacted annoyed and called after us a bit aggressively... Others in the reviews reported incorrect invoices, but everything worked out for us. We cannot recommend this restaurant. Terrible and unpleasant visit.

The waiter was very tasty, but the food was quite poor or too spicy - there were three of us. Pizza dough is not cooked through and the taste is completely weak. Appetizer plate for three consisted of 3 components - carpaccio, tomato mozarella and vitello tonnato.

Food: Bruschetta and Pizza Tonno, with 2 KönigLudwig light. Conclusion: really doesn't work! Bruschetta is unroasted, old, dry white bread without any herbs, but with wilted ruccola as a garnish. Not worthy of an Italian house!!! After the complaint, work was carried out. Beers were warm and stale. Pizza was okay! Ambiance is great as Prager Platz is traffic-calmed. Unfortunately, there was no mention of the inexpensive lunch. At least we got a limoncello on the house, but we still won't be back!

Stayed in Berlin for a few days...our room (Hyperion Hotel) was directly above the pizzeria. Super tasty and very friendly Highly recommended We'll be back Thank you 🥰🫶

Very nice and tasty, but I can also understand some of the ⭐️ reviews because one of the waiters is just completely unpleasant, to put it nicely. But the older man (also) serving us was very nice and oh very accommodating. Have eaten there several times

This was the second time I've eaten at this restaurant and it couldn't have been more different. The first time I came here with my partner was on Thursday evening. It was dark and rainy outside, so there was very little going on. The staff was very friendly. An older man who entertained the guests with his friendly and open manner and made you feel really comfortable. The portions (a salami pizza & spagetti Bolognese) were surprisingly large and we were offered schnapps on the house. We politely declined and still got something in the end - two small lollies. It has to be said that we sat and talked long after we had finished eating. Very friendly staff, very nice atmosphere and delicious food. On our second visit there was a second "waiter", also an older man. He was far less relaxed and probably placed a lot of emphasis on efficiency. We hadn't even bought our tickets and were still thinking about it when he wanted to take our order. In order to bridge the (admittedly quite short) waiting time, we were each brought a piece of spreadable baguette. My partner had already finished eating and it took me a little longer because his plate was already taken away and the cutlery was brought. It just seemed too “hectic” for me. The portions were a little smaller (spaghetti Bolognese for both of us), but we were still full. After dinner we wanted to chat, but less than five minutes later we were asked: "What about you? Do you want numbers?" The waiter reacted angrily to the fact that we could only pay with a card. When paying then the sentence: "That's the bill, please add a tip, 41?" That took it a bit too far. Accordingly, you have to be lucky with the staff here.

Good food at fair prices. The service is friendly and you sit car-free with a view of the lively Prager Platz.

Personal was rude and unpolite. The fact that we wanted to pay by card. Made him curse and act really really weird. He cursed and ran of to collect the machine. Besides that he still wanted a tip. And the way he served the food was really akward aswell. He didnt have a good day I guess… A reason for us to never return to this restaurant.

Absolutely recommended. Very friendly and warm service. Fast service. Very good value for money. Very tasty food. Pleasant atmosphere.

We were warmly welcomed by Alessandro (I hope I spelled it correctly) and immediately felt at home. He suddenly brought my daughter a non-alcoholic cocktail. It was unbelievable how nice everyone there was. We just wanted to have a drink there and reserved a table for a day later. When we are in Berlin again we will come back. Keep it up and Alessandro… you are a great host.

Excellent food, friendly and unobtrusive service. Been there several times and will definitely visit again.

Perfect service and very tasty food. The waiters are so nice and accommodating, I have rarely experienced such great service. We recommend!!

In the evening after 9 p.m. we were looking for a place to grab a bite to eat. The pizzeria was just a few steps away from our hotel so we tried it there. We were warmly welcomed. The service was extremely courteous and friendly. The food tasted very good and it was comfortable to sit together there on a summer evening. We'll take a look again.

Good food & portion sizes. Service was a little slow due to being busy. We sat outside in summer and it was pleasant. Alberto was cheeky and Emo was our waiter who is helpful and made it easy for us despite the language barrier. We had the Buffalo mozzarella, rosemary foccacia, spaghetti scampi, spaghetti pollo and penne matriciana with a few drinks. Yummy & fresh.

I wanted to pay with a card and not order a drink with my pizza, the atmosphere was already sub zero... I then quickly got cash (it took a maximum of 2 minutes) that was my table (luckily gone) :D

Rarely have I eaten such good food. The service was top notch! Waiter was very attentive without long waiting times. Sufficient staff. There was bruscetta and bread on the house.

Absolutely nice service, like to joke and show passion for what they do. The food is also totally bomb. The carpaccio is highly recommended, even if you would like bread with it. I'd love to come back more often when I'm in the area. The parking spaces are not particularly plentiful, but you can still find one after a bit of searching. And the food is definitely worth the search.

Good place. All the waiters are friendly. The food and drinks are amazing. I definitely recommend this restaurant

We stayed in the hotel next door and needed a meal quite late at night and this place was still open. It is a huge restaurant with plenty of outdoor seats. As it was late we wanted a lighter meal so we had tagliatelle - I had beef in a spicy sauce, my wife had salmon. The portion was generous with plenty of beef and salmon. We had bitter lemon to drink and coffee to follow. The pasta was very nice. We hope to come back here.

Very good Italian restaurant with incredibly nice, attentive staff in a beautiful atmosphere! In the two days of our stay we went there three times because we liked it there so much. Holiday feelings guaranteed!

A very nice restaurant. I ate asparagus and fish. That was very delicious.

A very traditional restaurant the food was very tasty. The staff were very friendly Alberto, Alessandro we can only recommend great people. Keep it up 👍 Greetings from Beautiful Lake Constance

Yesterday I had dinner in San Marino with a group of 25 people and were completely exploited like never before in Berlin! An attempt was made to only offer the most expensive of the most expensive (without a map). Wine bottle price of €60 (!!!), although the menu only listed wines up to around €30. In the end we were offered a digestif at the expense of the house, but in the end we were charged for it! To top it off, we were forced to pay tips. So, good advice, give the restaurant a wide berth. If not, make the prices clear from the start, otherwise there will be nasty surprises!!!!!

Very friendly service, which conveys a very pleasant Italian flair and serves very good and fresh food as well as excellent wine and exceptional grappa. The three of us ate there four times at the beginning of May and felt very comfortable.

Some of the food was very bad. Prices on the menu online do not match the actual invoice (more expensive than advertised)

Here you have to worry that you will not be correctly informed about the price of wine. I even see deliberate deception here. You will be asked to give a tip. Food ok so far. So be careful.

The food was fantastic, the waiters polite and accommodating. The ambience is classic Italian, including the white/red tablecloths. All in all a very nice evening. The prices are reasonable!

The food is mediocre and the waiter cheated with the red wine order. We ordered a glass of red wine and two beers and he filled the glass whenever he could see it. When the bill came, he charged €49 for the whole bottle of wine, and the most expensive wine on the list is €30 a liter. And the waiter tried to charge for four beers, of course he refunded this. Always ask the price of the wines.

The food was okay, but the waiter was dishonest. I ordered white wine, but the waiter attempted to charge double. For red wine, which wasn’t on the list, they charged three times the usual price without confirming our choice. I requested a bill of €67, but the waiter ‘accidentally’ charged €76 after I didn’t want to tip.

It's nice to sit at Prager Platz, but what's the point if you're hungry and the waiter hasn't taken any notice after 10 lin?

If you are in the area and looking for a nice option for Italian food, this would be a good choice. The wait staff is very attentive. The location, particularly sitting outside, is wonderful. The food is varied but not always consistent. Some dishes are stunning and some are just so-so.

The food was okay, although I thought the price was quite high. The staff was also friendly until it came time to pay. When we wanted to pay by card, the waiter suddenly became quite unfriendly. It was not possible to pay separately by card: either everyone paid extra in cash or one person paid everything by card. We protested several times that we didn't want that and he kept making up new excuses as to why it wouldn't work and he became increasingly sulky. I have never experienced something like that!

The restaurant is located on the beautiful mini-square "Prager Platz". The staff was extremely helpful and the dishes we tried (pizza, bruschetti, carbonara) were delicious. The prices are really acceptable and the ambiance of the restaurant is pleasant.

We are currently enjoying a short vacation in Berlin as a family. We arrived on Wednesday. We were looking for a restaurant in the area. This recommended restaurant was completely inconspicuous. We reserved a table there for our evening meal. We ordered pizza and pasta and what can we say. We had never eaten such delicious pizza and the pasta was delicious too. Our waiters were also simply great. They were VERY nice. The prices were also really reasonable. Not overpriced. Had dinner there again the next day. Same waiters, even nicer than the day before and this food, fish with mustard sauce and grilled squid were also super tasty. Our little Lucy will always remember you, dear Alessandro and dear Daniele. If we're ever in the area again, we'll definitely be happy to come visit you again.

these are not Italians, but Turks/Arabs!

Hier erlebt man perfekten Service, wie es ihn selbst in hochkarätigen Restaurants selten gibt. Herzlich, authentisch und professionell. Das Essen ist wirklich gut und liebevoll zubereitet. Gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Empfehlenswert und gern wieder.

Good selection of dishes; friendly service; Taste, portion size & price completely ok (pizza, salad, veal & penne); Table selection not so lucky, as it is in the immediate vicinity of the door; A bit unusual that there was no music.
