I've been pretty disappointed with most restaurants I visited in Berlin. We walked pass Jungbluth and saw the Michelin sign (we are aware that they are have no stars, but still) and decided to give it a go. However, it's just another proof that the MICHELIN Guide is no longer a reliable reference.
It's hard to believe the genuineness of an honest positive Michelin review of such mediocre food, right from the ingredients, cooking to the aesthetics (check out the photo!).
One would also expect more thoughts to be put in the toilet setup and cleanliness in a slightly upscale restaurant.
The restaurant might have the right vision, but the journey to the goal is still far.
The 2 stars go to the service and the wine.
EDIT: You seem really salty, just like your food! Your aggressive response has taken away my 1 star to the service of your good staff. Judging from your attitude, would our food be any better if we complained to a person who can't take criticism, which would then even ruined the mood of our evening? And of course it was eaten up, given the small portion of all dishes, if not just about not being wasteful. It's pretty delusional to think that your customers were "pleased very much" just because they finish the tiny dishes. Great that you mentioned the "wildwater gambas with pike, saffron and bouillabaise", which again, was a "nice" try to put something "OK" together, but I didn't say that because my partner liked it. And you know what? When asked if the food was ok, most people said YES, just to be polite. Not everyone is so confrontational like you. But it doesn't mean that they have no right to share their honest reviews on the internet, so that like-minded people can avoid possible unpleasant experience on-the-spot and afterwards like us!
I put my review on Google too, because for some weird reasons (maybe you can tell me why), my review wasn't allowed to go public on the Fork ;) And apparently, you only accept positive reviews. Likewise, you seem to have a problem with me not enjoying some restaurants in Berlin. Well, I guess that's understandable. Given your attitude and food quality, your restaurant won't get such good reviews if it's in some other big cities, for sure. Please know that some of your customers have travelled extensively, tried good and bad food around the world, and really know what they're talking about...
