Piri's — Restaurant in Berlin

This location feels like something inbetween a missed chance and hidden gem.

Located quite near to Rathaus Neukölln, but in a quite side street, it seems to be a good spot to get away from the busy main road and enjoy a quick meal. For my personal taste, the music is a little too loud and the whole ambiente leans a little too much into the rugged/worn down atmosphere that seems to be so common these days. I personally would not have wanted to sit inside for a meal, gladly I didnt need to because one of the very limited places outside was available.

The Service was 5/5, nothing to complain about / criticize here. The lady was super nice, the order arrived quick, everything was more than fine.

The food was good, I got the Chorismash burger and the Piri Fries, but for me personally the fries were the hidden champion here. The fries itself were pretty good, better than what you are used to here in Berlin, but the toppings make the whole thing special and unique. The burger was a little bit of a missed chance tho, the idea of making a chorizo based patty is something I didnt came across so far (at least not in Berlin) and it simply works with the other ingredients. Sadly, the patty is way too small/thin, so the other ingredients kind of dominate the super tasty patty a little. Just judging the taste tho, the fries were 5/5 and the burger 4/5 (with a little bigger patty it would be 5/5).

The whole thing does come with a little turn off tho, called prizing. 9 € for the fries is already anything but cheap, but considering how much that thing fills you up, one could be fine with it. But 12 € for the burger this size is unacceptable, for this prize the whole thing needs to be like 30% bigger.

That being said, it was an enjoyable experience and worth a visit due to the food actually being kinda unique, but as long as the pricing is the way it is, I will likely prefer to visit one of the plenty alternatives of burger places the city...

One of the best Burger places in Berlin! I only wish there were more spots than the one in Neukölln.

Their bread and butter is the piri burger, a usually stacked chicken burger with some fried cheese, lettuce and piri sauce on a soft and firm bun. Along with that probably the best fries/chips I've had in Berlin also. Thicker cut and seasoned generously. All done in a diner like style with an Aussie twist.

Everything comes together to be really juicy and tasty. The different burgers come with slight variations in ingredients and intensity of heat with their escalating sauces. There are also tasty vegan and vegetarian options as well as great specials like Manic Monday's and Fish fridays. Pictured are also the tacos with birria I recently tried that were really good. They also do small cans of beers, Guiness and wonderful Margheitas that are perfect for summer.

The place definitely has a Engliah speaking vibe which I personally like, the staff are a friendly bunch, who primarily work in English but can also offer German. The place can get quite busy/rowdy in the later evenings (especially on special nights) so take that into consideration.

As I write this I'm already being tempted to go down. Hopefully that tells you everything you...

Tldr: you can achieve the same experience at home by drinking a cup of warm cooking oil whilst sitting next to a smoke machine.

After walking past many times and thinking the place looked great iv never been so disappointed.

Firstly the place has a weird smokey haze in the air, I'm assuming of burnt oil? The music is good and staff were nice enough.

We ordered a piri burger, piri wings, fries and frozen margs.

The wings were barely cooked enough and were swimming in a pool of grease. The piri sauce had no spice and bad flavour.

The chicken burger had to much of the same greasy piri sauce and loads of this other grainy white sauce? No idea what that was but it was awful.

The Margs also tasted like sea water, someone must have added salt to the mix and not just around the glass.

Fries were good, but if your messing up fries then something has gone seriously wrong.

We didn't even manage to eat half of the meal before leaving feeling sick, and two hour later we still feel awful. Can't wait for this "food" to leave my body.

Should have asked...
