"we had google places to eat in berlin, while we were on a trip with our adult youngs and wanted somewhere challenging and different. we took one over from our hotel and the driver showed on the road as we came out. cards. told us we were literally outside the restaurants, but we couldn't find it first. we found the black, metal-rolled door with its gold diamond name tag in the flashing shops. we then walked through a concrete ground-shaped passageway and some steps up and felt excitingly uncertain whether this was the right place. we were greeted with a neon illuminated sign that “you are free to go” read, which seemed with the bunker style kitchen that we could see before, but definitiw piqued our interest and excitement. the restaurant lay by heavy doors and had an underground feeling with dark interior and a large, long cocktail bar at the end overhanging with square glued glass lighting. we sat on an elevated dining corner with much space and the tables were beautifully placed and not too close together. we ordered cocktails, English garden, neger and others and the standard of these drinks was excellent. we ate juicy meat salad, fresh salate and burrata with strawberry and dill, very tasty and well presented. we ordered a German weeping, but unfortunately they did not, as our waiter told us, the delivery was wrong, but he beat another weeping that was also a very good quality. there was a waiting time for the return of the waiter to advise us about the weeping, but we also waited for our eating. our waitress was very pleasant and helpful, apologised for waiting for the food and filled our water and drinks while we waited. other tables also seemed to wait for food, but the atmosphere was very relaxed. while we waited a dj on the deck, we played some dance music that had a strong undercurrent beat that was not too loud but was added to the underground feeling of the place. our food finally arrived and we ate filet steak with chips, an excellent risotto with wild garlic, khuk and bark salat. the portions seemed small, but we found that we were satisfied when we ate the meal and they were delicious. we finished with espresso martinis, which were also an excellent standard. eating was very pleasant and the actual service was attentive, but the waiting period for eating was a little long. it is an expensive restaurant so ready to pay, but it feels exclusive and eating and drinking excellent. we left the restaurant back through the bunker style and stopped to use the photobooth for a bit of fun and a memento of the night."
