Wonderful!!! Really liked the place, simple, friendly, English speaking. And tasty.. the salad is fantastic, very fresh and healthy. Prices were nice as well. Big portions, so everything that you need for good lunch or dinner.

I work in service so usually Im very understanding if things take a little longer. However the quality of the service was horrible. It wasnt busy at all and we got our menus after already being sat for 10 minutes, then ordered 2 beers and a vodka apple juice which took 30 mintues to arrive to our table (2 people of the floor and one behind the bar) this isnt acceptable on a not busy night. It also took an hour and fifteen mintues for our 3 "pizza's" to arrive in which one was burnt so badly it was inedible. This couldve been made better had the staff updated us on why things were taking longer or at least checked in with us. The cherry on top of this horrible experience was that when I went to the toilet I could see inside the kitchen, all the staff were on their phones when we knew that there were people still waiting for their food. I dont put the blame on the staff since service was trying their best but it was obvious that there is a serious lack in management and supervision. If thats sorted it e a nice place but until then dont waste your time.

If you know what a Galette is then you will be disappointed that what you get is not a standard Galette (which is crusty, usually more like a pie base) but something like a „Breton galette“ which is a pancake. It’s not indicated on the menu that it’s not a typical Galette it just says the flour type. Regardless I was ok with trying something new however the ”galette” was awful, it bland and I couldn’t finish the pancake part. On the Flip side the flammkuchen was really quite good, flavours went well, adequate toppings so it’s a shame to be let down by another dish.

I am really excited every time I find some special family-restaurant! It's like you are visiting your old good friends!

@mamakalo - a cozy family place with German and French cuisine in Neukölln

The owners are a beautiful German-Polish couple, Marcus u0026 Mago. Every day they are receiving guests with delicious food and a "home" atmosphere.

The name of the restaurant is an acronym incorporating the first syllables of the names of the owners.

Chief Marcus uses fresh local and seasonal products. So there are always some options of the season.

We were really lucky and tried next dishes:

● Gluten-free buckwheat crêpes with beetroot, radish, cheese and fresh salad.

● "Flammkuchen", very thin and crispy dough-alsatian pizza, with pumpkin, red onion, blue cheese and pomegranate. Highly recommended! ❤❤❤

● Traditional Spätzle pasta -the best I have ever tried- with cream, gorgonzola and mushrooms.

All dishes were fresh and of high quality, with a well balanced taste! The portions are really big!

Further they have some meat-dishes , french desserts, pastries and on the Weekend breakfast.At the moment the restaurant is open only for dinner, but in warmer Times of the year they also open for lunch.

#happyfood_travel highly recommends @mamakalo restaurant as a cozy and delicious restaurant in Berlin! Immidiately moves to my top-5 places for a nice dinner with friends!

The salad with avocado was really good. Apart from this, the service is extremely slow. Cash only (2022!!!), even if the prices are not so cheap.

Location is great, prices normal u0026 the workers are very nice. Came twice in 2 different times of the year u0026 the dish was as great as the last time, but looked different. Can’t wait to go back.
