Came for the borsch and berry dumplings &mdash; both tasted proper, like homemade. Coffee surprised me, actually good. Service was friendly but Sunday was a bit chaotic. Fine spot if you&#39;re not in a rush.

The lemonade and bagels were pretty good&mdash;lots of veggie options, which I appreciated. Service was friendly enough. Space is narrow and a bit drafty, so better for a quick bite than hanging around.

The Saperavi was the real deal. Deep, dark, with that earthy finish that just works with the food. Had it with the khinkali, and honestly the wine carried the whole meal. The dumplings were fine, maybe a bit doughy on top, but that wine made up for it. I&#39;d come back just for another glass of that.

Nice view from the terrace, you can see quite a bit of Potsdam from up there. Had some traditional German dishes, all pretty solid. Staff was friendly enough, didn&#39;t have to wait long for anything. Place sits on a hill so the setting does most of the work. Fine for a casual stop if you&#39;re in the area.

Apple strudel with bourbon vanilla ice cream was decent. Pork knuckle juicy in parts, not consistent though. Service slow, had to ask twice for dessert. Bit pricey for what you get.

Service was great, Chrystyna took good care of us. Food well prepared, though a little welcome from the kitchen would&#39;ve been nice.

We sat outside by the water and ordered a bunch of tapas to share. The food really does taste authentic, like something you&#39;d get back home. Our waiter was friendly and didn&#39;t rush us at all. It&#39;s not cheap, but you can tell the ingredients are good. Just wish the seating was a bit more comfortable, the chairs got hard after a while.

Been coming here for years now. Schnitzel still crispy, currywurst solid. Place was packed but service didn&#39;t drop off. The pagoda-style building always makes me smile, kind of odd but you remember it. Not the cheapest, but you know what you&#39;re getting. That consistency is why I keep coming back.

Falafel burger, potatoes, and a Coke for under &euro;10&mdash;that&#39;s a solid deal. Free Wi-Fi was a bonus. Portion was decent for the price.

The fried duck and rice were solid. Flavor was there, portion decent for the price. Location&#39;s easy to get to, which helps. One thing though - they only take German bank cards. Didn&#39;t have mine on me, had to sort it out. Worth knowing before you go.

Solid pasta place. Had the gnocchi, really good. Sitting outside under the palm trees in winter was nice. Rice pudding was decent too. Staff friendly. Bill was a bit steep for what it is, but I didn&#39;t regret it. Probably not a regular spot, but fine for a one-off.

The homemade ice cream was pretty good &mdash; salted caramel and black forest were both solid. Generous scoops for the price, decent value.

The plating was almost too pretty to eat. Each course looked like a small piece of art, and the flavors matched. Pricey, sure, but you can tell where the money goes. Just wish the pacing between dishes had been a bit quicker. Still, a lovely evening.

Tried the Belmondo loaded potato with garlic and sweet chilli sauce. Solid choice, lots of toppings. Decent range from meat to veggie options.

The daily special was beef pasta with mushrooms, and I also tried the risotto with peas. The pasta had really fresh mushrooms, which I appreciated. Portions were generous for lunch. Prices felt fair for the quality. Nothing fancy, but a decent spot if you&#39;re in Potsdam and want something simple.

The newspaper menu is a fun idea but kinda awkward to handle. Blueberry ginger lemonade was the standout&mdash;really interesting for a non-alcoholic drink. Food was decent, service fine even when busy.

The porchetta panini was the real deal&mdash;crispy skin, juicy meat, just enough salt. Had it with a cappuccino after the museum. Cake looked good too but I was full. Terrace view of the square is nice if you care about that sort of thing. Coffee was solid, not bitter. Maybe a bit pricey for what it is, but the sandwich made it worth it.

Great service even when we arrived right before closing. Waitress gave solid tips for the Dutch Quarter.

Solid scones, proper tea selection. Place feels genuinely British, not a tourist trap. Service was fine, nothing to complain about. Good spot if you&#39;re in Potsdam and need a break.

Decent steak for the price, no complaints. Liked the Arab-Italian-Spanish mix on the menu. Desserts were meh, but the main course saved it.

Loved the breakfast buffet here, so much variety for the price. Just wish I&#39;d gotten there earlier, it got pretty busy by 10.

Service was on point. Food came fast, looked clean on the plate. Sat outside, nice enough. Menu had solid vegan options too. Prices fair for what you get. Nothing crazy, but it worked.

Small salad was huge, actually. Mushrooms and cheese on top, really tasty. Sat outside watching the trams go by. Staff were friendly. Good spot for a quick bite.

We stopped by after walking around Sanssouci. I had the lychee wine, which was really nice. The food looked beautiful on the plate, and the taste matched. Prices are on the higher side, but you can see where the money goes. Just wish the portions were a bit bigger for the price.
