Schwarzwaldstuben — Restaurant in Berlin

One star but two words: total disaster!

Me and my gay friend headed out to grab some beers. We first noticed that the lounge chairs in the left corner were broken, so we decided to sit on the canapé close to the bar. First everything was fine but then my friend discovered: salad on the floor. The sticky sauce was oll over the place. We were like no drama, let’s just call the staff. Finally one of the waiters came by and we pointed on that mess next to our feet. He looked at it, back at us and seriously said "This is super unhygienic. I wouldn't dare to touch this“.

After we recovered from this man's excellent service skills, we asked for a cloth or paper towel. Wasn’t possible. Instead, this pioneer of modern gastronomy brought a beer coaster and threw it over the widely spread salad. It was as effective as putting sunglasses on in order to make the chauvinistic behavior of the staff members disappear. In my words: It is no means to an end.

After sweeping their problems under the beer coaster, the waiter, while looking at us from the corner of his eye, whispered something into the other bartender's ear.

Now food quality is not as good, portions are actually small and most interesting dishes disappeared from the menu, it’s just schnitzel/wurstsalat/flammkuchen - selection pretty common in many restaurants in Berlin.

Team inside mentioned that those dishes are not available anymore since a few years and “the boss” does not even care to update the menu. I had schnitzel and it was tasteless and small, bratkartoffeln were actually burned. It is very sad, as i had given this place 5 stars some years ago for great food quality, selection on portion sizes. Team was very...

I've been in Berlin twice and had a bad to just ok food experience. I was looking for something that would be good and wouldn't cost an arm and a leg. That was meant to be Schwarzwaldstuben.During the last day of my stay desperate for o good food experience I searched a bit and found it. To the point... The staff was great, the place was neat and the food was SUUUPEEEERB! The taste was great, the balance of flavors was right and there was so much aroma in our dishes. We got the "Mixed Salad" and for main the "Game sausages with mashed potatoes" and " Crispy pasta squares with a meat filling fried with onions, and Swabian potato salad". The price was fair and the portions enough to fill us to the top. I will...
