Overall it’s nice, fresh and tasty but the price for a dish like this it can be slightly less pricey.

This is easily one of my favorite spots in Berlin! Every time I visit the city, coming here is an absolute must! The food is incredibly delicious and the service is always great. Just a heads-up: you definitely need to arrive early to get a table, especially for brunch and if you are coming with a large group, so be prepared to wait a little bit. However, it is absolutely worth it; the food never, ever disappoints. 🌸💕They offer very unique and distinct flavor combinations, which is why I love this place so much. Everything is always super fresh, with a great variety of ingredients and plenty of excellent vegetarian options. I highly recommend it to everyone!

Very good salad. The staff was excellent friendly, smiling, and welcoming. Even though we waited a bit longer, they treated us to a cake, which was a really nice gesture. Highly recommended!

We used Rocket & Basil Catering for a recent 110 person conference in Berlin recently. We put on conferences around the globe all year long and this was by far the BEST food and service we have ever had. Sophie was flexible and so lovely to work with. The presentation was stunning and I could eat her food every day. Schnitzel sandwich of my dreams and the brownies, wow so amazing. Thank you Sophie and your whole team for such an incredible experience!!!!!!!

Wonderful fresh ingredients and layered flavors with creative combinations in the weekly salad left me wanting to return. The poached egg I added was cooked perfectly and the lemonade was refreshing. I found the waitress really pleasant and attentive. This is a must do restaurant and a much needed break from the heavy German food in the area. Highly recommended!!
