    My boyfriend and I have been here twice in the last month and we really love it! It’s very easy to make a reservation, the restaurant has a beautiful aesthetic, and there are lots of delicious meal options for everyone including vegetarian and vegan. My boyfriends favorite dish is the cauliflower and mine is the coconut shrimp 🤤 We also really recommend their sangria, it is super refreshing and tastes great.

    We really enjoyed our dinner here. The restaurant offers a large outdoor seating area - amazing for warm summer nights. The inside looked quite dark though. Service was very friendly and attentive. The menu is large and easy to understand. They have extra pages for their vegan dishes and it's easy to see which meals are containing gluten. It's mostly Asian food but they also offer very special dishes like a spinach-truffel-parmesan-salad (I can highly recommend that). We tried a few tapas - we enjoyed all of them especially the vegan dumplings. As mains we had a vegan duck stir fry which was delicious and a wonton noodle soup. Unfortunately the soup was missing some flavour, it tasted a bit watery. Everything else was amazing though. Prices are fair. Unfortunately you can only pay in cash.

    CASH ONLY. We really enjoyed our lunch here. It was truly a wonderful Lunch experience. Good food and friendly staff, great combination (Read Full Review) The restaurant offers a large outdoor seating area - amazing for warm summer nights. The inside looked quite dark though good vibes and good lighting. Service was very friendly and attentive. The menu is large BUT REALLY EASY to understand. The titles of each dish was unique and they priced thing unique, I like how the menu is laid out. They have extra pages for their vegan dishes and it's easy to see which meals are containing gluten. We tried a few tapas - we enjoyed all of them especially the cauliflower, that black sesame sauce was amazing, it was too good! I definitely suggest, getting Tapas/Starters and you will get full just from that alone. Everything else was amazing though. Prices are fair. Unfortunately you can only pay in cash. CASH ONLY is the challenging part. Overall, I would come back to this place and try more food. Everything else was amazing and because the menu so big you can definitely eat more and keep coming back. Sincerely, Kristopher • IG: Manabo.Studio (31.

    Lovely spot to warm up on a cold Berlin night. Light music in the background, lighting and decor gives a warm cosey vibe. Staff were friendly and d quick with service. Food prices weee very cheap, starters were 4/5.50 so we just ordered a few of those between two people. Would definitely recommend the bite me crispy chicken, wontons, dumplings, duck pancakes and swishy potatoes. Really flavoursome food. Each dish is not filling in its own but sharing 4-5 dishes should do the trick. Soft drink size was quite generous. Would definitely go back. Venue only accepts cash so just be aware of this

    Joa, ich hatte es tatsächlich besser in Erinnerung. Die Einrichtung innen sehr rustikal, das Essen auch nur okay. Die Dumblings waren lecker, leider war mein Chicken viel zu teigig, irgendwie gar nicht richtig durchgebacken. Es gibt meiner Meinung nach definitiv bessere Restaurants in der Gegend, die gemütlicher sind und wo alles stimmt.

    Food is very nice especially with large verity of options including vegan. The drinks are also delicious. The dumplings were remarkable as well as the oceans8 order which was basically ramen with seafood. Recommend for couples or a small group

    Great Asian fusion place, always good vibes food and services when eating out with friends Pho here is good, I will also recommend try the squid main dish or the roasted duck. The food here is customized for European tastes but still keep a good extent of its Vietnamese roots Strongly recommended to make reservations

    Very delicious food. We ordered a Wonton soup, sommer rolls, chicken skewers and the "Golden Hour" with crispy duck. The staff is very friendly and you can get tap water for free! I really recommend this place ☺️

    I first gave them 5 stars because The food is so tasty and the service was so lovely at the beginning. But then when I shortly whent to toilet they took my food off the table. I wonder if I will still have to pay for it. Will update later. ** UPDATE: THEY INSISTED ON PAYING THAT. RANKING GOES DOWN TO ONE STAR And no thanks, i don't want your ice cream

    The first actual great food I've had in Berlin. If you are tired of currywurst and kebab come here. You. Will. Love. It. Highly recommend the monkey noodle - you will have a great time.

    Reviewed as asian who living in Germany. The restaurant have really nice and cozy atmosphere. The food tasted overall ok but not special When I was there, you can pay only with cash

  • 5/5 Esther G. 4 months ago on Google • 16 reviews
    Came here on my own months ago and wanted to bring my friends now. Perfect place to share some starters and have a main course. I recommend the fried chicken with mayo and dim sum specially

    The food was good. The service amd atmosphere was very nice. Overall, we had a great time. Unfortunately, they only take cash.

  • 2/5 Anthony L. 6 months ago on Google • 12 reviews
    Food good, service terrible. Attended 14:30 on a quiet Sunday afternoon with minimal other customers and waited over an hour for two tacos, sweet potato fries and a chicken skewer. I'd have let it lie if the waitress hadn't then insisted on a tip to be honest, and be aware it's cash only and the nearby ATM charges 8% commission

    Great food, lovely staff and location 🤩 I tried the platter for 1 which includes all the dumplings on the menu and I liked all of them. So, if you're in for dumplings, whichever you choose, it will be the right choice 😊

    Service was slow and they got all food order wrong and tried making us pay for a new one to be made. Luckily they didn’t so I kept a star on. Plenty of veggie choices and the cocktails were tasty. Seemed like a family run place which is also nice to see but not sure if we would be returning anytime soon

    Ich wollte meinen Geburtstag feiern und wurde leider enttäuscht. Wir haben einen gegrillten Lachs bestellt und dieser war überhaupt nicht durch. Als wir das beim Service angesprochen haben, teilte man uns mit dass man es grundsätzlich „Medium“ und nicht durch bekommt -ansonsten hätte man das sagen müssen. Anstatt kinderfreundlich zu reagieren, mussten wir das Lachsmenü dennoch bezahlen. Wie man liest, ist es nicht das einzige Menü, das nicht durch ist.

    Lovely and tasty Cantonese and Asian food! One of the best curry’s that I had ever try. I’ll come back for sure when visiting Berlin! Great price + good portions + nice place + friendly staff and service.

    Decent dish with uninspiring service in a lively cornerspot. Overall okey, you'll enjoy your stay if your standard ain't to high.

  • 5/5 Sydney A. 1 year ago on Google
    The service was super fast. The drinks were delicious. The sweet potato in the sweet potato and beef was the softest I have ever eaten. the dumplings were perfect and fresh. The duck was amazing. The monkey noodles were great. Highly recommend.

  • 2/5 Olya K. 5 months ago on Google
    Nice place, many options available, also vegetarian. Food tasted ok, maybe it would be better if served hot. Standard cocktails, tadeltest as usual. But the staff is the reason i would not come back again. It seemed like quite enough staff members but it took ages to get an attention of the servers. We waited ages just to get the menu and make an order. The food was served lukewarm, almost cold. We had to ask several times to pay as we veer ignored and forgotten about. The restaurant wasn’t fully seated and not in a rush. And after all, me and my friend ,so to say, willingly got robbed. We both had to pay about 20€ per person, paying separately. The waitress was supposed to give about 3.50€ and 5€ change to me and my friend, but she said that she didn’t have any change left and that she will just leave it as a tip for her, and just left. We didn’t understand what happens at first. But we’re too shocked and tired of waiting to do something about it. Definitely not coming back and would not recommend to visit

    I've been here a couple of times now and think it's a great place to meet friends. The servers are pretty attentive, and the prices are a bit high for Berlin, but fair and the outdoor seating is GREAT. The food and drinks are nice. I really like the Basis cocktail—really sour and refreshing on a hot day.

    Everything was so delicious. Loads of vegan options and meaty options and both were amazing. If we were in Berlin for longer, we would definitely come again.
