Restaurant Šljiva — Restaurant in Berlin

Very bad service! Been ordering a dish at this place, the waiter told me that it'll be served to me in 20 minutes. After 35 minutes I asked again as the dinner did not arrive and they told me that they will not serve the dish to me anymore, because they had too many other customers siting nearer to the place even though they forgot me completely. This was on my birthday and they did not care at all. Cruel service! Never gonna go there again!

Answer to the owner, as the comments are somehow deactivated: This happend back in October, I did hesitate a long while to write this comment, as I have never done it before and I personaly realy don't like talking bad about others. Nevertheless, as I recently told a good friend about this experience and I was really getting angry again, he suggested to write a review, which I did. I did not sit directly in your localeI, but the markethall was empty as it was a Thursday (I know this as it was my birthday) and I asked one of the employes if I can order a fish soup and he told me of course and he'd bring it. Then, after 30 minutes they forgot it and I came to ask about it and he told me 'now they are fully ocupied and will be serving only customers sitting in the dedicated area of the restaurant' (beforehand he took my order and told me it was fine! I even though explained him in detail were we are sitting, which is not far from the restaurant). Still, really the worst dining experience I have had so far! And fyi, it was...

We went with friends and we ordered different "starters". We made sure they take our order well because it can be confusing.

When the dishes arrived we warned the waiter, in English and in German, that they brought an extra portion (4 little pieces of meat with melted cheese on top)

He told us: “It was our mistake, you can eat it anyways”, so we all shared.

The problem started when the bill came and they wanted to charge us for that extra dish. We explained to the other waiter the situation, but he told us that he did not authorize that and that we should pay.

It was like an extra 10 euros that we had to split again. It’s not about the money here, but the unpleasant moment after being told “just eat it” and “you have to pay for it”. I wonder if it happens often, but this lack of clarity and communication between the staff is unacceptable.

It was a very uncomfortable situation, because we were treated like “people who don’t want to pay their bills”. When we clearly paid for what we ordered.

Please be careful when ordering and double check what comes to your table to avoid situations like this.

All in all, I won’t be back because the food was just average, and for that price and...

Perfect. Absolutely stunning. My parents and I went out for dinner and found ourselves in Arminiusmarkthalle in Moabit, which we really love. My dad saw Šljiva and said he’s been craving Balkan food for a while. So we went. It was a Monday afternoon (opens at 18:00) so it was quite empty. The restaurant is very cute with pretty wooden tables and Serbian memorabilia. We ordered plums stuffed with cheese and wrapped in bacon (epic), classic sopska salad (very good) and proja, which is Serbian take on corn bread, served with spinach and cheese (also very good). Then came the mains. Ćevapčići (skinless sausages served with ajvar, grilled capsicum paste and kajmak, the love child of cream and butter) and the grilled octopus. I have never had such delicious octopus. It was crispy on the outside and melting on the inside. All of that with delicious fried potatoes smothered in garlic. It was an amazing feast. Everything was delicious. All prepared with love by a lovely lady, who also served us. Thank you so much for this! We had a blast. Will...
