Cafe Berlin

The service was good, and we were promptly seated honoring our reservation. The food was not bad, but needed more seasoning since my wife's Schnitzel was kind of bland and my wild boar could've used more flavor.

We went here for the Spanferkel (pig roast) and were very satisfied. When my partner complained that he didn’t get as much pork as me, our server brought a small bowl with more. For the sides I ordered the bratkartoffel and Bavarian cabbage which tasted just like it is in Germany.

Loved the pig roast for Oktoberfest

We have enjoyed Café Berlin's Oktoberfest and pig roast for several years, worth the commute from Rockville. With Covid, things had to change and the owners did a terrific job in spacing tables, sanitizing tables and chairs after each guest departed, etc. Well done on all counts, including the food which was excellent as always. We sat inside without any feeling of fear or unease.

Great as usual. Delicious food, attentive servers, and beautiful ambiance.

Perfect evening for outdoor eating - food and wine were delightful . On to Oktoberfest!

Pricey but the food is great!

Nice outside patio to help with distancing. Food was great!

Schnitzel portions have shrunk since last visit. Food still quite tasty and beer garden a lovely setting.

I dine at Cafe Berlin once or twice a week when I’m in DC (about half of each month). It’s become my go-to place because of the relaxing outdoor patio ambience, the endearing collegiality of the staff and owners, and the changing but always nice entrees and starters. Also a scrumptious Bavarian dessert or two. But wait! I’ve forgotten to mention the thirst-quenching fresh draft German beers, directly imported from their manufacturers. Some are constants on the menu, and some rotate - but there’s always a widely varying selection. It’s great value, and a must-drink and must-taste cafe.

Best German food this side of the Atlantic. Friendly staff. The outside garden is beautiful. All table are under huge german-bier umbrellas! Amazing spot.

Always a great time at Cafe Berlin. The food is warm and the beer is cold. By keeping their menu smaller during these difficult times they are ensuring that the quality of the food remains at the highest levels. While my schnitzel was a little too thin, its flavor was excellent. The sauerbraten, wurst platter, and cod at the table were all expertly prepared. Of note is the sides from the salads to the spatzle everything was fantastic.

We ordered the restaurant week specials, both of which were excellent. Given that we are only now feeling confident enough to eat outside at restaurants, we were very pleased that the food and service were so good!

Decent German food. Not an extensive menu. But the schintty was good.

Great food and very accomodating! Reserving a table was quick and easy

Amazing food, great service, felt totally safe with good social distancing and safety measures. I will definitely eat here again, pandemic or not!

Wonderful experience as always. Food was delicious, service was great, and ambiance was nice.

Everything was fantastic, from the food, service, beer, atmosphere!

Great authentic German cuisine and a lovely outdoor patio to enjoy to escape the city feel (or during a pandemic). The staff is diligent about providing a comfortable, safe dining environment and compliments that with delicious food and great German beer!

They always have unique selection of German draft beer.

Always a great experience at Cafe Berlin.

Good food, exotic beers, big umbrellas. What's not to like?

Friendly staff. CoVID-19 precautions in place. Lots of sun umbrellas to keep you shaded.

Everything and everyone was fine. I like that they seemed to be taking covid-19 seriously.

Love this place! The best German food in DC and a great outdoor patio.

Dinner was delicious. We sat out on the patio, which was very nice. It was early evening so there wasn’t much shade at first, but later it was fine. The waiter was very attentive and we loved the beer and great German dishes.

Cafe Berlin remains one of the best reliable standards of DC's restaurant scene. They're still professional and everything is delicious.

From the owner to the phenomenal service, I would argue that this is one of the best restaurants in DC. This will be one of the places we will continue to go back to.

Even though it was a really hot evening, it was pleasant sitting outside. They made sure we had plenty of cold water and did not rush us from the table.

We enjoyed sitting on their spacious patio at a good distance form the nearest diners. Dinner was very good and German draft beer heavenly. Friendly efficient service.

Very pleasant outdoor seating to go with a good German menu.

Great food & service. Outdoor seating due to Covid

Great beer! Waiters Jeremy & Bianca friendly, attentive, very helpful. Café Berlin outdoors - the place to be!

We are long time fans of Cafe Berlin. Wonderful setting on the patio. Stop by and enjoy outside dining.

Very tasty schnitzel. Outdoor patio is nice.

It’s one of my faves in DC. Ambience on the outdoors patio is always great, the weather was pleasantly accommodating, the Erlanger Hefeweizen was as delicious as usual, and the Wurst were plump and juicy. Plus the male server was very congenial. What could be better?

Great outdoor dining experience with social distancing in place, delicious food and gracious service.

The patio at Cafe Berlin is great for having dinner and social distancing.

So nice to be outside having lunch and a beer again!
