My colleague and I had lunch at Stein's because it is very near to our office. The restaurant felt a little chilly (air con). Food was very good - the beef burger very juicy, with tasty potatoes, the Flammkuchen good as always. We didn't consume anything else.

Lovely venue, amazing food, tentative, well presented and personable staff. Venue still appears to be ‘new’ with chairs still in packaging in the main restaurant and there was no loo roll or replacement in either female toilet (yes, did inform and believe it was put in but felt the toilets should have been checked as we were one of the first bookings)

Very enjoyable supper before the Proms. From the items on the menu, it could just as easily be called "Munich" as "Berlin". Nice to have some Munich lager, but it was a little flat. The sauerkraut and the potato salad were very authentic!

Very simple to book through TableAgent. First time visiting this restaurant and overall I would say I'd be happy to visit again. The food was lovely, as we'd never visited a German restaurant before we really didn't know what to expect. Good beer is a given but food wise a trip into the unknown. We throughly enjoyed our meals and the surroundings. The only problem was clearly a lack of staff ( although the staff available were working bloody hard ) They basically couldn't keep up with service, we waited to order from the start. 2 hrs 20 min for good but basic 3 course food is poor, it would have been longer if we hadn't pushed to get service. I would come again as I think last night may have had internal problems ie staff shortages that was beyond the staff's control.
