Schneiderei - Restaurant in Berlin — Restaurant in Berlin

Went there with a party of 4 on April 20th. We loved the food, but: One in our party was vegetarian/non-alcohol. Three of us took the tasting food+wine menu, which is not vegetarian. I initially asked the waiter to come up with something synchronized with the 6 courses of the other 3, but there was little help coming from his end. Moreover, while the dinner proceeded and the courses and wine were served, not a single time did the waiter care for our vegetarian guest. No question whether another (non-alcoholic) drink would be needed, or another course. Even for the desert we needed to get active ourselves. I expect from a restaurant of this price category to come up with some suggestions and service for such a situation. This should be basic etiquette, which was not followed here. Therefore I can only give 3 stars.

ADD (after reply from the restaurant): To clarify, I was the one having the tasting menu, not the alacart menu, and also the one who invited the guests, selected the restaurant (a friend did the reservation), and paid the bill. I act on the feedback I got from my vegetarian friend.

I upgrade the review to 3 stars, but I'd propose a more conscious service. It would have been easy to match each of the tasting courses with a vegetarian option, duplicating some of them if needed (for example, your awesome Zucchini could be served twice). Someone should have asked the vegetarian guest if he'd like another drink, or a desert. At least bread could have been refreshed without us everytime asking for it. There are easy ways how this could have been addressed, please consider...

We arrived at Restaurant Schneiderei on Friday at 18:00, right as they opened, hoping for a quieter dining experience, which turned out to be the case. Our evening began with a warm welcome from the enthusiastic host, setting the perfect tone. Seated at a window table, we opted for the Tasting Menu and engaged in a discussion about wine pairings. While the wine selection wasn't extensive, our host expertly guided us through the options, allowing us to sample different varieties. Our culinary journey commenced with starters of beautifully seared scallops atop a jus, generously adorned with caviar, paired with Welshriesling and Sauvignon Blanc. The following course featured foie gras in a creamy soup infused with raspberry vinegar. A standout dish was the expertly crafted pasta, enhanced with lemon, butter, and chili, crowned with a perfectly seared salmon, providing a delightful contrast with its slightly undercooked center. Transitioning to a fruity Grenache with balanced acidity and tannins, we savored the Wagyu meat, flame-torched to perfection, accompanied by glace and mushrooms, followed by a succulent tenderloin served with potato pave and béarnaise foam. We concluded our culinary adventure with espresso, a delightful panna cotta for my partner, and a hazelnut cream adorned with crumble and chocolate cake.

We will...

Yesterday I've been to @schneiderei_berlin for the third time since they opened and if you want it in one sentence: go eat there!! 🤤👌💫 If you wanna know more.. there are very good reasons to do so: First and foremost, they know their way around the kitchen; the food is absolutely delicious! every ingredient is of a very high quality and chosen meticulously. Then, it is prepared to perfection, enhancing natural flavors and prices are rather affordable for the value. Secondly, the place is so welcoming and hosts art works by a different artist every month or so. The service? Warm and friendly 💜 Last but not least (if not more than everything else..) Liron Schneider, the chef-owner, is such a creative and passionate cook. He has sooo many ideas stored in his mind regarding the menu, that's why it changes every two-three weeks. He is also a very interesting film editor who has spent some time in michelin kitchens in London but on the contrary of what one might expect, he is very kind and humble. Am I forgetting something? Oh yes, they host brunch on sundays and on weekends they have live music and/or a DJ so the evening dine out easily turns into a late night bar experience. Sleepy Prenzlauer Berg has been waiting for a...
