For a couple of years that was my favourite restaurant in the area. The food was always great and the service felt like home.

However, the last 2 times I visited the place some things changed. First of all, there are no more russian-speaking waiters. Potemkin is run by the same business as the next door indian-restaurant, so all the waiters are from there now. I see no problem with that, they do their job. But the authenticity is completely lost.

The food quality became way worse. Before, any time I went there, eveything was super fresh and delicious. The last time I felt that the deep-fried dishes were cooked in overused oil. The smell was very characteristic.

Next, a Mojito we ordered was without sugar, super sour. We had to add sugar ourselves, and that a "cocktail" for 9 euros! We spent there 1 hour and there was no one ordering cocktails. I believe, with such a demand they could put more attention to making the drink.

Besides that the waiters didn't put enough efforts to get a correct order. Even when I was pointing on the item in menu. Perhaps, it wa late and everyone is tired, understandable. Anyway, be careful and ask to repeat your order,

I am quite disappointed with this place. It doesn't cost its price anymore.

P.S.: Oh yeah, another thing! The toilets, both for man and women are dirty, small and smelly!

P.P.S.: I just received a complaint from Potemkin, that this review is not true and that I was never there. It's a lie. I lived close to the restaurant and went there several times with my wife. I believe, the bank payment statements will be a proof.

So, Potemkin's owner or whoever has created a complaint, don't even try to get rid of this review, but make your employees to provide at least as good service as it...

Feeling ripped off: Have eaten in this place before. Last, a couple of years ago. Since I have a doctor around the corner, I rediscovered this place and its terrace, but had only coffee and cake & the occasional beer. Always paid in cash. Since they always have lunch specials, and we were in the area, we decided to stop by. On the board it said Schnitzel (calf) with fried Potatoes and a drink for 7.50 Euro. Assuming a small sized portion and a drink lunch special, I thought what a great deal and ordered it. Well, to my surprise I got a regular sized meal and knew something was not right. "7.50€" referred to the drink only, I was told, the meal was 21 €. The waiter said that I wasn't the first who was "falling" for the sign. (Please look at the board, it doesn't say anywhere 21 € for the meal, only 7.50 € at the bottom.) This is wrong advertisement.But ok, a bit peed off, I accepted the ordered plate and agreed to pay triple the price. When we asked for our check, it came to 48 € for the 2 of us. I elected to pay with CC with and added 4€ Tip. But instead of 52€, he charged me 54.04€, telling me that the 2.04€ are the CC fee. I am so pissed! I just read up on it. Under European law, no merchant/ restaurant is allowed to charge their customers a fee for paying by CC. When I mentioned my disappointment, the waiter just played dumb and didnt even attempt to rectify the situation. The only thing he said, that he could cancel the CC transaction and I could pay cash. UN FREAKING BELIEVAVLE. I dont blame the waiter, but the owner that obviously goes for the gutso. Never ever will I eat there again. At most will I have a cup of coffee and pay in cash. What a shame! Food & location are great. But I feel so taken...

Wir waren zu zweit zum Frühstück im Potemkin. Wir saßen draußen.

Fürs Essen gibt es fünf Sterne. Alles tiptop. Leider war der Rest nicht so schön, weshalb es klasse wäre, wenn man sich auch darum kümmern könnte:

Trotz der frühen Uhrzeit waren die Toiletten nicht gepflegt. Man konnte sich seinen Weg dorhin erschnuppern und mit Kot beschmierte Toilettenbrillen sind bestimmt nicht jedermans Sache.

Der Service geht besser - wir wurden platziert und unsere Wünsche wurden aufgenommen. Dann kam nach normaler Wartezeit unsere Bestellung. Den Kellner sahen wir dann an unserem Tisch nicht mehr wieder. Als wir zahlen wollten, wurde dies nicht wahrgenommen, einen anderen Kellner haben wir über unseren Zahlwunsch informiert und wurden weiterhin ignoriert. Bis zu drei Kellner standen gemeinsam draußen und unterhielten sich, während Gästewünsche ignoriert wurden. Das war überraschend. Ein Herr vom Nachbartisch ging nach wiederholten Kontaktversuchen zum Bezahlen rein.

Der Kellner vom Anfang kam zum Bezahlen zu uns und teilte mit, dass wir auch per EC-Karte Trinkgeld geben könnten. Dies war etwas befremdlich, denn so unauffällig um Trinkgeld zu buhlen ist schon dreist - insbesondere wir Trinkgeld nicht als Selbstverständlichkeit ansehen. Dafür sollte man sich schon mehr ins Zeug legen, als nur seinen 08/15 Job zu machen...

Er gab mir das Eingabegerät, wo er 10000irgendwas Euro zur Bestätigung eingegeben hatte. Ich sagte, dass das aber viel wäre und wollte es weglächeln. Er teilte mit, dass er ausschließen möchte, dass er das so eingegeben hätte und dass ich wohl einen Knopf gedrückt habe. Er hätte keine Schuld. Die Stimmung war plötzlich frostig bis gereizt, denn ich hatte von Aufrundung nichts gesagt. Er kassierte ab und wollte gehen.

Dann kam er doch kurz zurück und fragte "Kann ich bitte erfahren, warum Sie mir kein Trinkgeld zahlen?". Ein wenig überrasche aber bereitwillig wollte ich ihm dies dann erläutern und fing mit der Toilette an. Bevor ich weiterkam, sagte er: "Ach, und was kann der Service dafür?". Mehr konnte ich ihm nicht sagen, denn offenbar wollte er keine konstruktive Kritik hören und lief ohne Gruß oder gute Wünsche hinein.

Wirklich schade - hier wäre eine Personalschulung im Umgang mit berechtigten Wünschen der Gäste bestimmt gut angelegtes Geld. Für uns wurde durch dieses kindische Verhalten der Frühstücksgenuss im Nachhinein getrübt. Trotz der Nähe zu unserer Unterkunft waren wir am nächsten Morgen woanders...

For those who use to come here before 2019, just know that it's not anymore the same owner. The menu is still the same but the quality it's absolutely not anymore the same. I honestly wonder if they try what they serve... The food is tasteless. For what it is right now, it doesn't worth it. There is much better traditional Russian restaurant in Berlin. At Potemkin, you will pay, a lot, mainly for the view. And when I see that the restaurant is pretending that some other bad review are fake, I lose confidence in the future of the restaurant.

Revise: I gave it a second chance. They got my order correct this time, and compensated me with a side fries. Original Comment: I recently placed an order through Uber Eats which included two large portions of borscht. However, upon delivery, I received one large and one small portion instead. I reached out to support, but was told a partial refund could not be issued. I find this disappointing, as I paid for two large portions and did not receive what I ordered. I’ll really appreciate it if we can work out a resolution.
