Love the atmosphere here. Pizza is delicious. Very comfy and vibes are smooth.. Music is cool.

We used to recommend this place to anyone who was in search of a quality cocktail bar. Unfortunately, it’s under new management and has gone downhill in that regard, so we can no longer recommend it. Let me explain:1) The physical size of the food vs cocktail menu speaks volumes about where the priority is. This is odd because I’d think alcohol would net more profit.2) There are no mocktails on the menu, and the cocktail menu is limited. There are a few mocktails on the downstairs menu but when asked about it, we were told that menu is just downstairs and couldn’t be made up here. Any well stocked bar and true mixologist can make anything on or off menu. This is true for any cocktail. Several guests in our party stuck with water as a result. In the staff’s defense they did offer to make one kind of mocktail, but please offer a menu that at minimum matches downstairs.3) Service was very limited. We were told to order at the bar. When approaching the bar, we were told they would take orders at the table. They never checked on us if we wanted another round, so we didn’t order another.4) Any true upscale cocktail bar will offer various spirits for tasting. There is no whiskey or scotch menu.5) All our drinks were very strong, which is fine if all you’re looking for is a good bang for your alcohol buck. However, a good quality cocktail balances all ingredients. We felt the mixologist skills were several steps below what a place like this needs.Overall, it’s fine if you’re looking for a different place to order food and basic drinks, but don’t expect anything out of the ordinary. Which is unfortunate because this place used to be something special. This review is obviously written from the context of experiencing the “old Berlin”, so your mileage may vary.

My husband and I had our first experience at The Berlin last evening on my daughter’s recommendation. Loved the ambiance and the jazz band was great.We sat at the bar which seats about 6. Two bartenders were on duty and our drink order was taken right away. While our cocktails were delicious, the service ended there. We had to literally flag down the bartenders who were three feet away for our food order and bill. We were considering a glass of wine with dinner but both of our “servers” were totally consumed with conversing with an acquaintance at the bar. I have been better served and felt more welcome at a bar that seats 20 with only one bartender . As a matter of fact, that’s exactly what happened when we left The Berlin and went to Brown’s for a nightcap!We liked it enough to try it again, in hopes of better service.

The Berlin definitely lives up to its hype of ambience and decor. I've been trying to get up here for almost two years and they did not disappoint! Lauren and the other bartender were helpful and courteous. And they make an excellent Commodore #2! Kudos to Amy, Mickey and their staff for a job well done! Definitely a five star review from the Saratoga Supper Club!

If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind date night experience, look no further than this 1930's cocktail lounge. Tucked away in a cozy and intimate setting, this lounge transports you back in time with its vintage decor, dim lighting, and classic cocktails.From the moment you step inside, you'll feel like you've entered a secret hideaway, a place where you can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and relax in style. The lounge has an intimate and romantic atmosphere that's perfect for a date night.The cocktail menu is full of delicious and expertly crafted drinks, each one with its own unique twist. The bartenders are friendly, and they're happy to help you find the perfect drink to suit your taste. It's clear that the owners take pride in their establishment, and it shows in every aspect of the lounge.Overall, if you're looking for a romantic and memorable date night spot, this 1930's cocktail lounge is definitely worth a visit. The atmosphere, drinks, and attention to detail are sure to make it a night to remember. Enjoy! ?

The staff at the Berlin helped me celebrate my birthday in style! They made delicious drinks and food and were just a ton of fun. I would recommend 100 times over!

If you like speakeasies - i.e. low lighting, no tvs, low noise level, unique atmosphere, great cocktails - then this is a place you'll like. We were lucky to get a table on a Saturday night as walk-ins. Wait service was not available (which we had to figure out - no one told us), so we ordered at the bar bringing the drinks back to the table. Cocktails were fantastic. We had a great experience. I would definitely return.
The rating is not based on the internal experience since we never made it through the door. Two weeks ago I sent an email inquiring about their open status and make a reservation and I never heard back from them. I then just went ahead and booked via there text option and never received confirmation or any sort of acknowledgement. I showed up for the reservation and was then told the venue had been reserved for an event (perfectly fine and the gentlemen on the phone was very kind) but instead of being notified through my email, called or even texted back, I had to find out at the door. Based on this experience I won't put forth the effort again.

The drinks were great and so was the bartender. The host at the front was also very nice and welcoming. We had a great time and will definitely be going back! Highly recommend.
