Tapas Berlin El Colmado Kudamm in Berlin

Worst service ever... Unfriendly and incompetent, tourist trap...

Totally delicious here😊 highly recommended

Class! Fantastic Spanish cuisine with authentic, freshly prepared tapas. The selection is varied and the quality of the food is first class. The atmosphere is cozy, the service is friendly and attentive.

What can I say? I was often there with friends, alone - simply because I wanted to Short for a little something, long for a menu/paella. That says it all!

Tapas but more as an attempt then anything to remember

I went for a lunch super excited to try out for the first this restaurant. The atmosphere was excellent and the food was good but never made it to the main course. Our waitress had very little engaging with us and at this point I am not sure if she did fully understood our requests. We ordered some drinks and some tapas and we let her know that we wanted the paella as a main course. She kindly let us know it needs around 30 mins to be done which was perfectly fine by us and by the time we would be done with our tapas it would work out fine time wise. The restaurant had maximum 4 groups of people the entire time. We had to wait one hour after our tapas for the paella and since the rest of the food wasn’t coming we asked our waitress how much longer will it take and she said 15 extra mins. It was clear that our order hadn’t even started to get prepared at this point. We waited another 30 mins only to end up taking the paella as in a take out box because we needed to move on with our day. Considering that a restaurant like this, at this location with certain prices it creates also certain standards that unfortunately cannot be met with an amateur service like that. My experience was very disappointing.

Food is super delicious! Service quite disorganized, orders were forgotten. Still nice and friendly. Ambiance is a bit cramped, especially indoors.

The tortilla skewers and croquettes are very good!! good vibes

The intern Mateo is simply perfect, he is a girlfriend and can interact well with customers, simply a role model for today's youth The food is excellent and the price is justified If it were up to me, it would get 10⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Simply magnificent, the Tapas are exceptional, as is the service. We will return!

Great food. Great service by Pablo

We went to the restaurant because of the good ratings. Berlin has a lot of nice restaurants to offer, but unfortunately this is not one of it. The paella was quite dry and without a lot of flavor but expensive. We would choose another restaurant the next time.

We found the place by chance and were pleasantly surprised. They treated us great and the food was incredible. Place to repeat without a doubt.

Exceptional tapas restaurant - delicious food and excellent service!

Staff is so unfriendly... Unfortunately…food, well…. Drinks… beer tastes good… But you can forget everything else.

wonderful, I can only recommend it

The Mediterranean design and the orange trees transport you to Spain; the food is authentic and prepared with high quality ingredients.

Well, they are the best croquettes in Berlin without a doubt.

Loved it; very good service and exceptional food at a reasonable price for Berlin and Kudamm.

Agradable restaurante de tapas españolas en el centro de Berlín ,trato excelente por su personal muy amables ,local bonito decorado ,productos españoles ,vinos de todas las denominaciones,comida estilo tapas muy rica , si quieres sentir un poquito de España en Berlín .

The food is good. Interior ok, but too hot....

We were here for a business lunch with 6 people, unfortunately the service was very bad, the food was average, the toilet wasn't clean. Food was forgotten and dessert was already cold when it arrived, even though it was supposed to be warm. Empty plates and glasses were not cleared away, a very bad restaurant.

Of the 5 tapas we ordered, only 2 arrived after a 20-30 minute wait. After an hour the missing tapas still hadn't arrived. When asked, the rest were prepared, but only 2 of the 3 were missing. All the tapas we ordered came out, so the other dishes were cold.

Ich empfehle Rioja-Wein, Gambas al Ajillo und Patatas Bravas

I ordered Spanish beer 🍺, potatoes with sausage and fried egg. I was expecting a tapa portion, but was given a huge portion for a hard-working lumberjack and only managed to eat half of it. The food was very rustic!

Good service, good product and exceptional treatment

We went there and they made a huge seafood paella! Highly recommended.

Very friendly service and great food

nice place, excellent dishes tasted, fabulous paella.. definitely worth trying...

Very nice service, delicious food, it was a very nice evening

The most delicious olives, which you can also purchase. Service is very friendly. We'll definitely come back.

Wonderful typical Spanish grocery store. A joy to find this and have some good tapas. Very friendly, polite and pleasant staff. They have treated us very very well. It is recommended to visit him in Berlin.

Service, atmosphere, food and the best drink!!! You have to try the chicken!!! The croquettes, and the chorizo!

Fairly generous dish, fairly good quality but terrible service (no organization between kitchen and servers)

Super good food, very nice service, gladly again

Actually, the dangerous proximity to Kudamm should have been a red flag for us...but we tried it anyway: Paella-0 taste, 0 love, 0 ingredients...yes, there was rice in it and 3 large shrimps, maybe 4 -5 mussels, all completely tasteless... Paella Marisco was that... Sitting on the noisy corner of Kudamm was also unpleasant. Service below all cannon - eternal waiting for everything, repeating several times, etc. The bill is of course hefty - Kudamm!!! Performance - to escape...Thank you, never again!

The food was okay. they brought me a dead clam. It was also not good enough for the price! The server gave a wrong order four times!!, and he brought us a food we didn’t order and refused to swap it with the stuff we actually ordered. The atmosphere was nice, as we were watching the euro match Germany vs Denmark. Overall an averagely bad experience. I wouldn’t go here again.

Fremragende besøg og sikke en service. Vi viste ikke helt hvad vi skulle bestille ud fra det lækre menukort men vi aftalte en fast pris med chefen og så gik køkkenet igang med st fremtrylle en masse små tapas til os. Det var virkeligt lækkert og super servering. Fedt sted og til meget rimelige penge. Kæmpe anbefaling herfra.

Super recommended, the paella is incredible.

The paella is incredible, delicious, super authentic.

What a social work I gained by donating meals to children at school for each product consumed.

Our favorite restaurant in Berlin

We truly recommend the Paella, Padrón and Sangria. We also had a delicious Vermouth They donate meals to children in need

Great restaurant with good food.

Food was overpriced and blant. I would not recommend it.

Great Spaniard! He supports “Mary’s Meal” with every meal purchased there. I think it's great!

El Colmado is a gem for any lover of Spanish cuisine. Recommended for dinner with your partner or friends

Authentic food, a very good service, reach selection of wine, super nice atmosphere.

Authentic Spanish tapas in Berlin

Spectacular; the service and food 10!

Very classy Spanish restaurant 👏 Tapa Bar - near Ku’damm! Great tapas, wines! It was really very tasty One point for the very poor coffee from a mini machine - so if you know Spain 🇪🇸 - you won't be happy with this cafe there. Better drink somewhere else 😉 But everything else was really great! Hasta luego 🇪🇸

The worst place in Berlin, 2 hours to put two beers and charge them. In addition to very exaggerated prices.

Great tapas and pinchos, cold beer! Friendly service!

Good tapas, especially the meat. Service friendly but quite slow (busy area in berlin)

Tapitas in Berlin, we loved it, highly recommended

Finally quality tapas in Berlin Charlottenburg

The service was great and the tapas were amazing. We will be back.

We walked in and there was hardly anyone in the restaurant, just a couple of tables. We didn't want to sit close to another table and asked to sit across the table. They lied to us that this table was reserved. And they put a sign up defiantly. Then a couple came in and said they didn't have a reservation. But they were seated at this supposedly occupied table. Why do you do everything out of spite? We'll never come back. Never recommend it to anyone else. Zero! It's a terrible thing to lie.

They have Sangría, Paella, Chorizo, Crumpled Potatoes... We feel like in Barcelona in Berlin

Very helpful and authentic Spanish food! The waiters speak Spanish and my group of students was delighted...we will return!

Hermann is an absolutely top man. He works alone, has the entire guest garden full and serves with absolute friendliness. Thanks Hermann!!! I would hire you in a heartbeat!!!!

To be outside of Spain, the truth is, it is very good. The German waiters speak perfect Spanish and also joke in our style. It has a good location and also good hours. It is highly recommended.

Very nice restaurant with excellent tapas and friendly service!!👍👍👍

Nice evening with delicious tapas and great red wine. We were warmly welcomed and served attentively and competently. It's a shame that we are so rarely in Berlin. Gladly again. Many thanks to the team at El Colmado.

Delicious food in a Spanish atmosphere.

Original Spanish tapas don't have much to do with me.

It was really great! The employees were super friendly, courteous and customer-oriented. We spent the whole evening here even though we only wanted to sit down for a quick drink. Price-performance ratio is absolutely right here! Gladly again!

Great tapas bar, right on the Kudamm in Berlin. Highly recommended - the kids loved it too! The desserts and the dessert wine that went with them were also particularly delicious!

The food was very delicious 👍👍👍. The people are very friendly 🥰🥰🥰.

A place I always enjoy returning to. Delicious food and doing something good at the same time, as "El Comado" donates a meal for four hungry children for every product consumed in collaboration with the NGO Mary's Meals. Great action! My photo shows Paella and Tarte de Santiago. Can highly recommend both. The tortilla is also super delicious. I had this on another visit. The staff is very friendly and nice.

Hermann is simply great. Great location, great food, especially the Iberico ham. We'd love to come back😀

The owners are Spanish, we ate a portion of jerky croquettes for only 5, and a sandwich of Serrano ham with cheese

The original Spanish food was sooooo delicious and all the waitresses were so helpfull and dear Vanesa was so kind with her smiling face... they made our day... thanks for everything... happy mother's day Vanesa... love from Deniz and Sinan from İstanbul/Türkiye...

Delicious. Very good tapas and the service is very friendly.

OK Spanish with nice service and good authentic food. Prices OK. Interior a bit sparse.

Very good and nice but the portions are very small for the price

Fast service and very affordable

Very good restaurant if you want some good tapas, very fast and friendly service, it has a very good atmosphere.

El Colmado is simply wonderful! The food is delicious and makes you feel at home. I highly recommend trying their incredible caramelized potato omelette, it is a unique experience for the palate! Furthermore, the team is very friendly and treats you with great affection. I can't wait to come back and enjoy more delicious moments in this lovely place!

Tapas Berlin is a true gastronomic paradise for lovers of croquettes and good beer. With a wide selection of homemade croquettes, from classic ham to the most innovative blue cheese and pear croquettes, this cozy bar offers a unique culinary experience. In addition, its varied offering of tapas, sandwiches and craft beers perfectly complements the cozy atmosphere and friendly service. A visit to Tapas Berlin is a guarantee of satisfaction for the palate and the soul!

It is a perfect place, they treated us great, plus the food was delicious and it had a 10 atmosphere with impressive views.

El Colmado brought more light in this part of KuDamm! The interior is very cozy, decorated with taste and gives a feeling of warmth, especially in winter times. The owner works very hard to make it work, and invested all his soul in his two restaurants. There is a great choice of delicious Spanish tapas and the staff is so friendly and nice. The choice of wines is also very good and prices are very affordable! Highly recommend, we've been here several times already and will definitely come back.

Excellent service and everyone very friendly

Incredible place, very delicious and they treated me well. I invite you to eat here, the waiters and the team are the best.

In terms of taste it wasn't anything special. The portions were quite small. Good as a snack, but really expensive. Overall, unfortunately it didn't suit our taste.

Great quality food, Unfortunately, it's very loud, so you can hardly have a conversation

Expensive, not tasty, poor service

The food was ok, yes there are free olives but they aren't great either. The suckling pig was beautifully prepared but unfortunately cold, the prawns were swimming in a strange sauce / almost just water. I found it annoying that they cleared around us. As a guest you didn't really feel comfortable when bottles were constantly being pushed through the restaurant with a ladder. I wouldn't visit again!

very good family restaurant, I highly recommend

The four of us ordered some tapas and a paella to share. The intervals between when the tapas were served were far too long, so we couldn't eat everything together. At least that's what you expect in a tapas restaurant. Some tapas were forgotten. After 1.5 hours we were brought the wrong paella. The waiting time increased because our order had to be prepared again. There was hardly any activity in the restaurant, otherwise we would have understood. The food tasted ok, unfortunately it wasn't anything special. The eggplant slices or sticks are not recommended. The waiters were very nice but that's not enough. Overall we were disappointed. A pity!

It is a very noisy guestroom, especially during peak hours, but I don't mind that. The food is fantastic. The place looks, based on the location like a touristy place, but again, the food is fantastic: Very authentic spanish tapas from different regions. Different kinds of croquetas: de Jamón, de Bacalao and de de cabrales y nueces. There is pulpo a la bresa or Puntillas fritas, as well or different pintxos. You can have tortilla with caramelized onions, tostadas and even, if you want something more, paella de marisco or with black rice and gambas or vegetarian with vegetables. We didn't have the paella, but all the food we had was fantastic.

No service, we waited at the table for 15 minutes and no service, all waiters running around but no one service. I think it was because we were English speaking people….

My favorite Spanish place in Berlin since 2021. Cozy atmosphere, real Spanish food and excellent service. Today I came to say goodbye to this place and I assure you, I will miss you, I was always well attended to by chat on your page and in a personal way. I recommend them and I will remember them… Big hug! Tania 🇵🇦

A really nice restaurant with delicious tapas. Above all, the service was great!

Very friendly service and excellent food

Super nice staff, super delicious food and drinks. We'll be back 😇 the homemade croquettes were sensational

Quick late lunch, Tapas are prepared fresh between the four of us we had seven tapas all tasty and delicious highly recommend

Sehr guter, unaufdringlicher Service. Sehr freundlich. Sehr leckere Tapas. Einfach ein guter Ort, um den Tag ausklingen zu lassen.

Pleasant surprise as a Spaniard in Berlin, to find this pleasant restaurant with quality traditional Spanish food, authentic products from Spain and unbeatable service, even more surprising, from the Bavarian waiter Hermann. We tried the octopus and the cheeks. Super recommended!

Die Note “ungenügend” weil am Sonntag Abend um 21 Uhr nach 10 min uns immer noch niemand vom Service ansprach, allerdings einen Tisch abputzte bzw. mit den Kollegen sprach. Es kam uns so vor als ob wir absichtlich nicht wahrgenommen wurden. Auch auf Nachfrage kam nach Wartezeit niemand. Wir sind dann wieder gegangen. Schwache Leistung !
