Brio

Das Konzept ist klasse: Viele kleine Gerichte, die man sich zusammenstellen kann. Leider ist die Umsetzung nicht 100%. Ich habe den leckersten Wildkräutersalat des letztzen Jahres dort gegessen. Dafür waren aber andere kleine Gerichte enttäuschend. Insgesamt erscheint mir die Qualität nicht ganz konstant zu sein. Auch dadurch erscheint mir das Preis-​Leistungsverhältnis bei manchen Gerichten grenzwertig. Ein bisschen mehr an der Qualitätsschraube drehen, dann geht das Konzept sicher auf.

Nicht billig, wenn man sich durch die Tapas ist. Preise sind aber gerechtfertigt, denn hier wird kreativ auf hohem Niveau gekocht. War mehrfach da und es war immer top. Dazu nette Atmosphäre, guter Service.

Lovely home made Italian cuisine. We went for the menu and all dishes were delicious. This was part of the eatalian week Berlin so 20 euros for three dishes including wine were great value for money. Service was lovely too! The atmosphere is as if you are sitting in someone’s living room, nice and casual.

Great food and lovely service. The menu is all small and/​or share plates, and everything we tried was fresh and excellent, including burrata ravioli with pepper sauce, calamari & zucchini salad, insanely fluffy gnocchi with bottarga, and crispy stuffed zucchini blossoms. Our 8 year old (fairly picky) niece was with us, and they were super accommodating, making her a plate of fresh handmade tagliatelle with butter. They also have a great selection of very interesting wines by the glass.

Brio — tolle italienische Tapas auf hohem Niveau. Tolle Adresse in Kreuzberger Graefe-​Kiez.

Food good but definitely not only 1x€. It is Italian tapas style and each dish costs € 7 – 12 but you need 2 – 3 dishes each to be satisfied. Other than the fact you need at least € 25pp for dinner, it was great.

Great interesting, Italian small plates: stuffed zucchini blossom good when you get a bite of cheese; very nice veal tartar — tender and chewy; interesting squid, zucchini, olive salad; very nice pfifferlinge pasta with parmesean. The best espresso macchiato I’ve ever had — uma delicia cremosa — and light tiramisu — delicious!
Great to be out on the sidewalk on a beautiful summer night. Service was acceptable but not top notch. Would be back in a heartbeat for the food.

Quiet simple and friendly. Try the café shakerato for something different and stimulating.

great brunch! not so much to chose from but QUALITY OVER QUANTITY!

Simple good place to eat with well-​designed menu and lovely people and a clean spare interior. Excellent to have another high quality and inexpensive option in this part of Kreuzberg. I had tasty polpette (meatballs) and the Tiramisu which was perfect. I wish these people well.

Serving regional Italian food from Rome, Brio is both inexpensive and really delicious. It’s run by young Italian expats who obviously care about their food. We came for the lunch-​time menu and had Supplì (rice croquettes, with molten Mozzarella ‘al telefono’ inside), Gnocchi Roman style with chanterelles and salad, and a beautiful Tiramisù for dessert (it’s so good you’ll forgive that they package it in plastic so they can also sell it to-​go). With a glass of wine, antipasto/​main meal/​dessert all came out to less than 15 EUR each. In the evenings, we saw they do an Italian tapas menu. Quite apart from being a good deal, this place really sticks to its Roman roots with a coherently regional menu done properly. With an Italian mamma, I’m really picky, and this is one of the few places in Berlin that gets it ‘right’. We’ll miss Little Otik (which used to occupy the same space), but this restaurant is a great addition to the Graefekiez.
