Pauline — Restaurant in Potsdam

The food was overall fairly good, can’t say too much to fault it, but the service was definitely below what you’d expect for this price range. Half of our orders were delayed because of an accident in the kitchen, which can happen, fair enough. When the orders came, one was wrong, which again can happen. I was offered the dish for free, which seemed appropriate and I kindly accepted. When it was time for the bill though it got strange. A waiter who was too busy sending messages on his phone to notice us for a while came over and introduced himself as the interim boss whilst the owner was out of town. He said the other waiter was unprofessional and should not have offered the meal for free. Furthermore, he started insinuating we were doing something wrong: „are you really refusing to pay this meal that you eat up?“ In the end we reluctantly paid for the meal and got two glasses of wine for free. We‘d never have minded to just pay for the meal in the first place, but this whole encounter was uncomfortable and very far away from the level of service you’d expect from the price tag. We won’t be...

I had the pleasure of dining at Pauline on a sunny Sunday afternoon, and it was an experience to remember. From the moment we sat down, the service was top-notch. The waitress was incredibly warm and attentive, making us feel welcomed right away. We decided to sit outside, and the ambiance was perfect for a relaxed lunch in the sun.

We didn’t have high expectations, but Pauline exceeded them in every way. We started with oysters, and they were absolutely delicious – fresh, briny, and perfectly prepared. Following that, we tried the onion soup, which was hands down the best I’ve ever tasted – rich, flavorful, and comforting. The Flammkuchen was equally impressive, with a wonderful balance of flavors.

To complement the meal, we enjoyed both a delightful Cremant and wine, which were great choices. The highlight of the experience was when the chef came out to check on his customers – a personal touch that added to the warm, inviting atmosphere.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Pauline to anyone visiting Potsdam, and I’ll definitely be back on my next visit. A wonderful dining...

Had a beautiful evening meal here lastnight. Quality food and brilliant and attentive service. My only negative, hence the 4 stars instead of 5 is that for the class and style of the place it is very sad to see fake cactus, plants and trees everywhere. With the delicious, classy menu and great service they just don't fit here and I'm certain a few fresh flowers or real plants on the tables wouldn't be too difficult to manage. But all in all I can't wait to go...
