After being asked: In my opinion, I got attended by an extremely rude waiter(Dressed in black, short/balding hair), who informed us rather angrily that his coworker, the front woman, had made a mistake and that the tables we intended to occupy in the outside restaurant area were reserved and to move to the "Biergarten" area. (The tables in question were not occupied the whole time I was there, June 9, 2021 at around 19:15). Almost shouting, very aggressive behavior not to be expected from someone in his position towards someone who got misinformed by his own coworkers.

In addition, the "buzzers" that informed that your food was ready, were not working. It was, to me, clear that the staff was aware of this, but did not bother informing the people ordering. We only got our food after inquiring directly to the kitchen staff.

The food was decent, considering the location...

Nice restaurant / beergarden in a remarkable place in Berlin! Next: the "schwangere Auster" and the house of cultures, next to the Spree channel. The place is more or less a huge beergarden with half of it as a self service area. Food and drinks are good. Teas and lemonade are fresh, wine and beer are chilled and tasty. The waiters are relaxed. Some of them are quite new to the job but I guess that's because everything just opened up again.

Please mind: the serviced area offers almost no shadow during the late afternoon. But as the Terrasse is facing to the west you'll have quite a nice sunset and long sun hours.

That place is nice to have a short break ore meet with a couple of friends for a few hours. Guests are more tourists and/or conservative.
