Nice German food experience - Edit
I went there alone because I could not make a reservation for 2. I had to make a reservation, and even if I did a few days in advance, the only spots available were all before 18:30 or after 20:00. I must say, the food was really good.
Read moreHowever, I was disappointed with the service… I was alone at a table four (but could not book for 2?) One of the waitress was really friendly but a little overwhelmed it seemed. I felt like The other waitress was just ignoring me and was a bit rude when I was talking to her.
The food was great, portions were big (the starter was so big I could not finish the main).
Still, I felt that it wasn’t worth the price.
Pros: Great starters, Good location
Cons: Unfriendly staff

The chefs day off? - Edit
We looked forward to some german vegan dishes, but were a bit dissapointed at the end. We both ordered the small soup of the day (pumpkin) as starters, it was okay but not WOW. The portion was big though.
Read moreMy husbond ordered the schnitzel with potatoes and red wine sauce.
I ordered the roulade with potato gratin and red wine sauce.
The roulade tasted like nothing else, coulnt barely eat it!? The sauce was clumpy and tasted like it was burnt. Something I wouldnt serve if I was the chef...
Anyway the gratin was great and tasteful!
Staff was nice and the seatings was not crowded :-)

Great food - horrible service - Edit
I wish I could give five stars. The food was excellent - the service was absolutely poor.
Read moreWe had a reservation for 7pm and arrived 15 minutes early. We were shown to a table, a few minutes later we were asked to move to another because they had made a mistake (no problem).
It took a while until we could order. We chose two main courses (no starters), the Schnitzel and the "Roulade". Both dishes were fantastic.
It was 7:50 when we were finished and asked for dessert. The answer: They would have to check with the kitchen if they could serve us dessert since they had another reservation for our table for 8 pm.
Seriously? What?
The waitress came back after a couple of minutes and told us, no, they were sorry, but they couldn't serve us dessert since it would take too long to prepare.
(Other guests obviously didn't have the same problem, they had desserts and seemed pelased.)
We were basically told to leave since they needed the table.
What would they have done if we had ordered starters? Thrown us out in the middle of the main course?
We were really disappointed. Another waiter talked to us and apologized. He offered to pepare some take-out for us on the house or maybe we could still have the table for another while if the awaited other guests were willing to sit outside (it was about 15 °C outside, so not very likely).
We declined and left. We weren't in the mood for their dessert anymore.
The food was great and I would have absolutely come back for it, but the bad service experience totally ruined it for us.

Absolutely fantastic - Edit
Everything was great. We booked a table beforehand (recommended, you can do it through their website).
Read moreWe had the seitan steak (which was absolutely delicious and looked like a juicy “fillet mignon” but ethical ;)), and the schnitzel, on which the highlight was the amazing mushroom sauce.
Service, impeccable. Very good white wine of the house!
Pros: Terrace , Service , Yummy food

solid restaurant - Edit
the fried cheese appetizer was really good. It is something you don't get somewhere else. The staff was really nice and changed our dish because it was to bitter. The restaurant is super nicely decorated and they have a seating area outside. Definitely would come again and eat the cheese appetizer again.

Great food, and German! - Edit
Really nice atmosphere and German food veganised. The prices are a it high but it reflects the area and quality. Only resvation was that it was extremely formal which is a bit un-Berlin, but it's definitely a place to bring omni family members for a nice time. Especially grandparents!

WOW! - Edit
Also. Wer deutsches, deftiges Essen mag und das mit Vegansein, Nachhaltigkeit, und Geschmacksexplosion vereinen möchte MUSS zum Försters gehen.
Read moreDie Lage ist gut erreichbar und das Interieur ist, sehr angenehm eingerichtet. Das Restaurant war unerwartet groß.
Die Karte/das Menü ist klein und wechselt von öfters, was an den regionalen Zutaten und der hohen Qualität liegt.
Die Portionen sind nicht zu groß und nicht zu klein, machen satt und zufrieden. Am Ende war der Bauch sehr voll (ich empfehle großen Hunger mitzubringen, denn Vor- Haupt- und Nachgang sind es wert probiert zu werden!).
Ich würde immer wieder kommen. Gerade mit Nicht -Veganer*innen. Spätestens das knusprig, frisch frittierte Wie"Ner" Schnitzel überzeugt.
Pros: 100% vegan, Schöne Atmosphäre , Köstliches, nachhaltiges Essen
Cons: Etwas höhere Preisklasse, Wechselnde Gerichte -> Nicht sehr planbar!

Yay for Schnitzel Mondays! 🙌 - Edit
Monday is Schnitzel Mondays (the original is served everyday), and there are a variety including Hamburg style with fried "egg", Vienna Style, Cordon Bleu, etc. It took a few bites for me to get to the cheesy part of the cordon bleu but it was worth the tease. Wish the cheese was a little more spread out throughout the patty (although may be difficult to). Also my friend has the original schnitzel and enjoyed hers.
Read morePros: A variety of schnitzel on Mondays 😍, Yummy schnitzel
Cons: Only a variety of schnitzel on Monday 😔

Thank you! - Edit
Thank you Försters for creating such an amazing and delicious VEGAN restaurant! Was there for about 5 or 6 times (on Xmas too, very good idea) and I never was disappointed. The Döner is really the best vegan Döner in town!

Försters serves you haute cuisine! Traditional German food from Schnitzel to Hirschbraten, 100% vegan and the finest of drinks...and then a crème brûlée to die for. What witchery is this?

Schnitzel love - Edit
Really cool to see a fully vegan restaurant that also does German cuisine as you can‘t find that very often. I had the schnitzel with potatoe as well as cucumber salad. It was soooo good! Would get it again next time. We also tried the goulasch, which was the weekly special. It was okay, but not great. The “meat“ was not tender enough to remind you of goulasch and the sauce was a bit too thin. The tiramisu we had for dessert was delicious. The girl who served us seemed to be new and slightly inexperienced, but she was very friendly so we didn‘t mind. Some dishes are slightly too expensive in my opinion, e.g. the tiramisu for 8 € and also some of the mains. Also, it was a bit strange that they had run out of their daily special soup at 7 pm. Overall pleasant experience and I would definitely come back to try other dishes or just get the schnitzel again. Worth mentioning the very clean bathrooms.

Perfect vegan place to take non-vegan friends - Edit
Förster is the kind of restaurant where you can bring non-vegan folks. They offer vegan twists on classics such as Gulasch. Excellent kitchen, very friendly staff and quiet neighbourhood. Outdoor seating available.

High-Quality Dining Experience - Edit
I've eaten here several times and always the food is delicious and I'm always satisfied. Last time around, among others, I tried the cheese wedges and seitan steak and if this wasn't a vegan restaurant, I would have wondered whether somebody in the kitchen may have slipped me real cheese and meat by accident. The taste was just incredible. I would recommend this establishment to anyone.

Better have a reservation - Edit
Many times tried to go there, no space. Finally I booked a table and event then I couldn't go there without a test. There was no information that the table was reserved inside. I would have booked it outside. I wanted only to seat outside, but there was no information that I need to tell that during booking. There will be more tries.

Best vegan cake in Berlin - Edit
While the food at Försters is amazing and should definitely be tried, their cake is what really blows my mind. I would recommend a specific flavour, but I don't think you can go wrong by trying any of their cakes. It's a bold claim, but I believe they've got the best cake in town!

Loved it - Edit
We came to Försters at around 9 pm without a reservation, they still had all options available. They have a variety of traditional German food and international dishes. Our server was incredibly friendly. We had the Schnitzel and Vegan Salmon Lasagna. While the Lasagna was really delicious, it was still a little cold on the inside. I didn’t mind it but maybe someone else would. Schnitzel was hot, so were the potatoes and sauce. Pricing is reasonable.

Vegan traditional German food! - Edit
We loved this place so much the first time that we came back. Second visit was good but not as great. We still highly recommend Försters.
Read moreThe venue was clean and spacious. You get given a tiny German appetiser before the main meal too.
Visit 1: food was superb - the Deftige Pfifferlinge mit Serviettenknödel was incredible, as was the rührtofu dish of the week. The virgin piña colada also was great. Both servers were very friendly and spoke English well.
Visit 2: not enough staff so service was very slow. Same mains as before - nice! We didn't enjoy the brownie. We also tried 2 cakes from the counter which had good texture but the taste could be better.
Pros: Traditional German food made vegan - hard to find!, Delicious mains, Friendly staff
Cons: Service slow on 2nd visit , Desserts could be better

Amazing Schnitzel & salad (Döner not so amazing) - Edit
We have been here 3 times. Every time we had a great experience. Really nice Ambiente and delicious vegan food. We can really recommend the “Frühlingsbowl” and the “Wie “ner” Schnitzel. Also the cakes are super yummy (especially “Pfirsich Keese Kuchen”).
Read moreWe also recommend the the “Pfifferlinge with Serviettenknödel” (if available).
One thing the we really can’t recommend is the Döner. We were convinced by the waiter who said that he has never had a better vegan Döner anywhere else. But we definitely did.
Everything else is very good though. Toilets, beer, location, music. Defiantly a must once in this area.
Pros: Delicious vegan options , Great Ambiente , Nice people
Cons: Döner
