I really wanted to like this place — woman-owned, the sweetest server, the cutest atmosphere inside with Sade playing in the background… but the food just wasn’t good. It was also disturbingly expensive for Berlin.
Mussels were tiny, lacked almost any flavor in the broth, did not have enough broth to dip them into, got cold half way through because they weren’t served in a proper deep dish. Razor clams — to our horror — came in with exactly the same topping as mussels, sprinkled with a lot of leeks and celery and what felt like a touch of white wine but certainly not enough butter/oil or something flavorful like garlic. Bland, not grilled enough, and hard to chew on due to all that leek being very hard (old?).
Cold shrimps were good, a bit fishy, with a very nice mayo to pair.
Oysters were ok but too briny and too big.
My favorite dish was the side of potato fries which had a beautiful crust to it while still soft inside and well seasoned.
The bill ended up being well over €100 for an experience that was entirely disappointing.
This might be a good place for an oyster fix but I wouldn’t recommend it for anything else.
