Colorful and Cozy - Edit
Cozy and colorful place where you can only choose a three course meal for 40€. For each dish there were two options: so it's a perfect place if you're two and like to share. We were, and we do, so I got to try all six dishes.
Read moreI enjoyed all the food. It was colorful and beautifully presented. Some dishes had interesting flavors that I really liked, especially the starters, the main dish with potato, and the lemon tiramisu. But the portions were too small, and sometimes I felt like it lacked flavor.
The service was great.

Sehr gutes Konzept - Edit
Ich hatte schon sehr lange von der Inhaberin ein Kochbuch und hab mich daher umso mehr gefreut, dass man bei ihr direkt und so einfach Essen gehen kann (und sogar die Zubereitung beobachten kann dank offenem Küchenkonzept). Sehr sympathisch und vor allem lecker.

Happy place - Edit
Das Happa Restaurant ist eines meiner persönlichen happy places. Ein Ort der mich glücklich macht und mich noch nie enttäuscht hat. Das Essen ist großartig und besonders, die Preise mehr als fair und die Optik der Gerichte verspricht einiges. Wer Wert auf Nachhaltigkeit, eine schöne Atmosphäre und ein lovely service team legt, ist hier in Kreuzberg total richtig. Vor allem die saisonalen 5 Gang Dinner Menüs haben es mir angetan, aber auch das kleine Happa für einen schmaleren Taler kann sich sehen lassen. Ich war vor kurzem mit einer größeren Gruppe dort und habe noch den ganzen nächsten Tag von dieser schönen Erfahrung gezehrt. Vor allem die Kommunikation im vorneherein war sehr professionell und liebevoll. Dieses Restaurant ist einfach so gut durchdacht, von den Bio Zutaten über den Kaffee bis hin zum Interior, der Wanddeko, der Hundecollage und der Getränkekarte (nice drinks, auch alkoholfreie).

Lovely concept - Edit
It was a lovely meal and I love the whole concept of it but I felt some of the dishes weren't that great. Me and my friend shared everything so ordered one of each of the items on the menu and the bread was the highlight of the meal, the desserts were pretty good but that's all the positives I can say about my experience. I also felt the meals lacked protein and I just didnt feel like the meals were well rounded, it was just lacking. Slighlty disappointing but still enjoyable

Initial, but not final impression - Edit
It is hard to rate a restaurant based on a rotating menu. I had higher expectations, but it came with a price (literally).
Read moreI have to revisit another time when there is another menu, because what I had wasn't anything special.
Other than that, friendly staff, lovely interior and small and cozy vibe.

Lovely dinner experience - Edit
We visited HAPPA's Italy themed 5-course saturday dinner event. The owners were super friendly and the service was great. The vegan non-alcoholic wine pairing was such a nice surprise to find, and the drinks were really interesting and tasty. The food had some fun and interesting flavor combinations as well!

Unfassbar lecker - Edit
So viel Geschmack im allem, was wir auf den Tisch bekommen haben. 😍 HAPPA lädt zum langsamen Essen und Genießen ein, von der Vorspeise bis zum Dessert.
Read more3-Gänge-Menü für 38 Euro, einzelne Vorspeise und Dessert für 8 Euro. Dass alle Zutaten bio und lokal sind, ist natürlich auch super.
Nur die hausgemachte Pflaumenlimo war etwas nichtssagend.

I love the concept and the food was great. Somehow the vibe was a bit off for me. The restaurant wasn't even half way full and the food came a bit too quick for a relaxing dinner experience and night out.

Delicious - Edit
The five course dinner was more of a fine dining experience so expect high prices and very small portions. The food was delicious though and the restaurant‘s zero-waste, organic, women-owned, leaf-to-root concept is amazing. The non-alcoholic wine pairing was so cool too! Only real con was it was extremely uncomfortable. We were placed in the back room, which I had never seen photos of online before. Our table was wedged between the back door exit, the wardrobe, and the bathroom, which only has one toilet so people are always waiting outside it. The ambiance was very disappointing compared to how cozy the front room looked. Also the tables and chairs felt like old school classroom school furniture, which were very hard and became uncomfortable fast. Maybe we just got unlucky and had the worst seat in the house but it ruined the experience for us unfortunately.
Read morePros: Delicious, Fine dinging vegan experience, Wine pairing options both with and without alcohol
Cons: Very small portions, Uncomfortable seating , Not good ambiance in the backroom
SophiaHoffmann
Thank you for your feedback. We constantly work on making our guest's experience as comfy and enjoyable as possible. Indeed the chairs we have (in both guest rooms) are vintage school chairs from Denmark, we have been making them more comfortable with cushions since then and we are also constantly working in the interior/ decoration of our place, we have a tight budget so we have to do it step by step. We hope you come back so you can have a better experience.
