Altes Zollhaus
Style:
Chef Restaurant, high class

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. "

Top German Food for not so top prices
Reviews:
Berlinbound writes on "German Diary": "Let me say at the outset that the food was sublime. [...] For starters I had what the restaurant called, “Ragout Fin” which was a small puff-pastry filled with a mixture of chicken, beef and parmeggiano cheese, covered with hollandaise sauce and surrounded by a delicate but spicy apricot chutney – it took my breath away. The main course was rabbit stew with Mediterranean vegetables served with a potato dumpling and a mixed salad. The rabbit and vegetables were cooked to perfection, the vegetables soft and savory, the meat infused with onion and peppers and just a hint of something stronger. The dumpling was never heavy, I could feel the texture of the vegetable in my mouth, the food was still living, not ground and pounded and processed to death like so much of what we are subjected to in restaurants today. Desert was something from the deep recesses of the imagination … fried nut and poppy noodles served with caramelized plums in a bourbon vanilla sauce. I will only say that the thrill of eating this dessert was probably equal to the thrill of whatever the redhead down the street had to offer and it only set me back five Euros! I selected a Spanish wine, Faustino Crianza Rioja, and it had just the right weight and texture to play with this food. The entire meal was under thirty Euros.
The restaurant is called, Assel, and it was the first establishment opened on the Oranienburger Strasse after the Wall came down. The original owner has returned to her first love of teaching, but her brother Christopher has kept the restaurant in the family and from what I can see he is doing a terrific job. [...]."

Fairly. They have a playground outside when its fair, and in general, you can also see ducks, birds, fish and trees, which is all very child-friendly. No play-corner inside, though.

Could be integrated with the Weimar Berlin, Third Reich Berlin Tour, Jewish Tour in West Berlin or with customised Berlin tours
More:
In our opinion, one of the best and friendliest beer gardens in Berlin; they have a self-service restaurant with grilled sausages and other types of German food; pretty good (and large) pizzas; and a serviced cafe/restaurant, which is pretty good. And it is on a lake side, in a middle of a huge park, which is a green lung in the middle of the city.
Reviews:
On Moscow News, Phoebe Taplin writes: "[...] a great restaurant "Am Neuen See," with a self-service section at weekends which does huge pizzas and even bigger beers at wooden trestle tables by the water."

German Bistro with international dishes and fair prices
Reviews:
From Fodor's: "The back room is dressed with white tablecloths, but most regulars pick a place in the front, where there are art-nouveau light fixtures, stuccowork, and a street view. This is a relaxed bistro, meaning the service can be sluggish, but the consistently delicious meals are very reasonably priced. The menu has a mix of Italian, French, and German cooking and a kids' section. The only lackluster items are the thin-crust Alsatian pizzas (Pfannkuchen). The generous Vorspeisenteller (selection of five appetizers) might include bresaola (air-cured beef) over arugula, grilled vegetables, and shrimp tempura. The restaurant is near Winterfeldplatz."
