A lovely place with a charming, old-fashioned vibe. I particularly enjoyed the menu, styled like a booklet—it’s just brilliant. The food was fantastic and full of flavor. The eggs Benedict with bacon and salmon were delicious, and the French toast with caramel was incredibly fluffy, soft, and perfectly paired with homemade caramel. The chocolate mousse was average, but the mocha cake was quite nice. The highlight, though, was the soup—a creamy, flavorful lentil blend mixed with other ingredients. Amazing breakfast place, but I wouldn’t call it best in Berlin.

We enjoyed our brunch in this place. Actually chat gpt proposed this place and we decided to try it. The staff was very nice and polite and we stayed pleased with the service. The food was nice. We loved the tomato soup and the eggs. The bacon biscuits were ok. I put 4/5 stars for the food which was nice but not the price. Other than that I recommend this place!

Very yummy dishes, breakfast, lunch favourites, food with Japanese/Asian touch. What I also like: portions a big so you get enough food. Prices are higher but still acceptable. The building  is interesting with an interesting history (wall-papers give a good summary in German and English). A clear recommendation, I plan to come back.

Before coming make reservation in advance.
Very polite and friendly staff, delicious food, what else can be better. Big enough place inside. Definitely wanna come again for food, also wanna see in the summer this place.
Just cappuccinos was hot, could be better to decrease the temperature.

The Good:
- nice interior
- menu has a nice variety
- friendly service
- some dishes are quite good, remind somewhat of a Japanese Izakaya but with a twist

The Bad:
- for the quality food is just too expensive ( A katsu witout any sides is 18 Euros 🤨) it was decent but its not a steak.
- unable to bring a pet ( waiter said I can bring my 25 KG dog in a cage if I want)

House of Small Wonders is a cozy spot with some decent options, but price/quality are unfortunately an issue for me.
