Restaurant Klement's

We went here not knowing what to expect.
It's far enough away from tourist areas to be legit but also right near a busy street.
But the reviews looked good so we went for it.
And man am I glad we did! There is wonderful seating right outside which is surprisingly peaceful for being so close to Schönhauser Allee, and the friendly service came to greet us.
The menu is big with lots of temptations, but I took a gamble (because I don't normally eat fish as an entree) with the Schnitzel "Klement's" which is like a Cordon Bleu with lox, cheese, and pickles.
Hooooly smokes, it was tasty! I was thoroughly impressed.
While I was snarfing it down, my date also offered me some of her "normal" schnitzel, which was also delicious.
Pro-tip: When you hear them *pounding* away in the kitchen after you order, you know you're getting fresh schnitzel.
We were so stuffed after our schnitzels that we couldn't eat another bite.
At least until the waitress informed us they had a Kaiserschmarrn-like dessert.
I should note that it's not actually Kaiserschmarrn -- it's more of a powdered crepe with apple compote on the side, but it is just as delicious and I couldn't stop shoveling it into my mouth.
Even though I needed to lie down afterward (or maybe because I needed to), this place is going on my list of top German spots in Berlin.
Stop in and maybe you'll see me napping between meals!

Very tasty food, and nice and friendly atmosphere and staff. We had pork and calf Schnitzel, and they were both very yummy 😋 the children portion was also perfect! Special mention to the Apfelstrudel, that didn’t last long enough to take pictures of… light and crunchy pastry, very balanced and not too sweet filling.
A real treat. The staff was friendly and patient, the atmosphere relaxing. Thanks again!

Couldn't have asked for a better first German meal in over 10 years.
Ive missed this food so much and it hit the spot! We all had the classic schnitzel and bratkartoffl with creamy mushrooms.
10/10 would recommend 👌
