Café Berlin on Capitol Hill

Loved my experience! I had never been and went for a double date on Saturday. It was a chilly evening so all of their meals were perfect. My boyfriend had the special, which I think was the Lamb. I had the short ribs. We all shared the brie and then the pretzel appetizers. The beer cheese that came with the pretzels was the best beer cheese I've ever had. I'm not a mustard fan, but my entire table enjoyed all of the mustards that came with the pretzels as well. I can't believe I didn't take any photos of the food or drinks, but my boyfriend and friend are both avid beer drinkers and thought their selections were great. Looking forward to going back!

And absolute gem of a restaurant! It is easy to see why this has been a neighborhood favorite for so many years; the service, food, and atmosphere were wonderful. On a cold winter night, it felt cozy and warm, and I was there for a birthday dinner with a group of friends. Some ordered from the restaurant week menu, some ordered from the standard menu, and all of us were more than happy with the dishes we received (literally everything on the menu was amazing). The cocktails, beer, and wine offered were also excellent, and service was friendly and attentive. I will absolutely be going back. A great experience all around!

Absolutely great food! Meat we got was stunning, soft and delicious, all the other menu positions were great as well, however it took an hour for the desert we placed at the very beginning and even though my husband ordered espresso, we never got it(even though it appeared in the receipt at the end). I hope it was just our experience, because I would definitely go back for the food. The food was 5 stars level for sure

Like the atmosphere but portion is really small. Ordered sauerbraten but there is only one small piece of meat. Staff are nice but slow.

Great experience and friendly staff at the Cafe Berlin in Capitol Hill. The food was excellent. And the beer is great. There are other German restaurants I went to before in DC but this place definitely has more beer selection. Strongly recommend for hanging out to drink or dining.
