i Due Forni

2009-04-09T01:35:00.000-07:00

Style:
Italian

More:
One of the best pizzas in Berlin, punk-pizza served by salon-anarchists.

Reviews:
I was pretty surprised I haven't reviewed i Due Forni before, given that it is one of our personal favourites in Berlin, despite its disadvantages. The pizza is good, and so is the atmosphere, but the daily dishes (written in unreadable Italian on the board) and the desserts are also great. The service is absolutely horrible.

Birge Amondson in About.com writes about this restaurant:
"

I Due Forni in Berlin is a hip and happening Italian restaurant cantina-style; it's not only famous for its delicious brick oven pizza, but also for its colorful decor and quirky staff.

I Due Forni - Pros

Best pizzas in town, fresh from the brick oven
Good prices
Staff speaks English
Big terrace and playground

I Due Forni - Cons

Always crowded; reservations recommended
Waiters can be short and snippy
Cash only
Menu is in Italian and German"

A reviewer on TopTable writes: "The Balthazar in Berlin was a lovely restaurant and the food was magnificent. The dress code was smart casual, but we felt a little under-dressed. The ambience was nice, but English restaurants now combine fine dining with a relaxed atmosphere, this as yet to be seen. We had the lobster meal and although every course was superb, the tastes were very similar, a difference in taste would have been prefered. overall an excellent experience, with pleasant staff and a very nice 40th birthday."

a secret private restaurant in a flat, ran by a married couple that cooks to not more than six guests.

Reviews:
The I Heart Berlin blog people have gone to the shy chef: "Our hosts, a Swedish/Irish couple, served us our dinner in 6 courses, every one of them accompanied by an exquisite wine. Every dish looked more delicately arranged than the other and all of them easily qualified as Gourmet Cuisine. In the end they asked us, which meal we liked best. But I could hardly decide, was it the goat cheese salad, the pork filet rolled up in prosciutto or the nut brownie on vanilla creme with hot raspberries? Hm… I just know one thing for sure:I could eat like this every day."

Lizzie writes in "Hollow Legs": "I couldn't leave Berlin without eating potatoes and Sauerkraut. We went to a restaurant called Chez Gino and tried to decipher the menu. In the end, I asked the waitress for a recommendation. She told me the Boudin Noir with potato puree and Sauerkraut is what she would have picked. With some apprehension as I'm not even a fan of black pudding, I went with her suggestion (more sausage!).

Unfortunately I completely forgot to take a photo at the beginning, so I have just a half eaten one. I loved the sauerkraut; it's tang cut through the richness of the sausage perfectly. My dining companions (especially the veggie) turned rather green when I explained what the sausage consisted of, but I actually really enjoyed it, much more than I thought I would. It's texture was very soft, with a nice, almost crunchy casing."

Kiezkind is located, not surprisingly, in the child-abundant, yuppie, Prenzlauer Berg. It is a cafe that serves only the most basic food (soup of the day, cakes, sandwiches), but is - most importantly - geared towards children (especially toddlers) and their parents: it has plenty of books, games and an indoor sandbox. In addition, there are Bobbycars, tricycles and other such fun toys outside, for sunny days. The place is naturally totally smoke free, although I have seen parents smoking outside in one of the corners.

Tara Costello writes in Travelblog: "That night we ate at the greatest hole in the wall German restaurant ever! [...] Walking into this restaurant out of the cold, crisp German air was like walking into Fezziwig’s party in “A Christmas Carol.” There was a fireplace roaring, dim lighting held to pace with candles atop every table and along the bar counter, tiny round tables with smiling satisfied faces circling round them, and an aroma we smelt from four doors down of something savory and delectable. We drank mulled wine and slurped up a soup made from potato, sweet chestnut, and mushroom before salivating over one of the best bratwursts I’ve ever had the pleasure of consuming. Of course with a find this good, we went two nights in a row :)"

The new name of the former "Storch" restaurant

Reviews:
Out of Town Local says it was the best meal they've had in Berlin, and writes: "We made our way to the restaurant but it was under a new name. Renger-Patzsch had taken over Storch but was still serving the same type of food. The space was contemporary with old world touches and lots of original artwork and photographs. [...] We started with a Kir and then shared two appetizers. We had the house special Flammenküche which is a broiled tart with smoked ham, cheese, and onion and a roasted quail with pumpkin risotto.

One of the best "new German" restaurants

Reservations highly recommended (open from 6 pm)

Reviews:
10Best ranks it as one of the best restaurants in Berlin, adding "Housed in a timber customs house that overlooks the Landwehrkanal, Altes Zollhaus specializes in organic nouvelle fare. Indeed, the restaurant, adorned with rustic furniture and set amid tall trees, recollects the charm and elegance of a bygone era. Menu highlights include seasonal dishes like Brandenburg duck with cream potatoes, and roasted steinbutt with lobster sauce, spinach and cauliflower purée. A wonderful wine list complements these choices, and during warm weather, you can choose a charming garden as your dining backdrop. Three-, four- and five-course prix fixe dinners are available. "
