Buddha Haus — Restaurant in Berlin

Sadly not a great experience. As a vegan I usually go to vegan places to support those and be on the save side but a friend who invited me wanted to go there, so we did. They brought us the wrong food, they brought a plate with meat. My friend and I shared the plate, what we stated before. (All the food we ordered was vegan). When we asked the waitress about it she (sorry female read) was like.. than you ordered the wrong dish.. of course it has meat in it. My friend opened to card to order the dishes, he did not order the wrong food I would also have realised that. We ordered in German and it seemed the persons's German wasn't very good. If one has problems with understanding the order you need to ask again or try in English or something.. after a bit the waitress was like.. okay sorry, "kinda bye".. and left us. My friend who sometimes eats meat wasn't too worried but I felt disguested that I took a bite. And I still feel disgusted about it. When the waitress came back she was like the next drink for him is free. And she did not serve our table anymore. Not sure she "just" avoided it. Of course human error etc.. but the reaction was not cool either. And if someone has an allergy, that would have been even worse. The food over all...

This place is a hidden jem amidst the lanes of Schoneberg! In case you are craving for juicy Tibetian momo Buddha Haus is a MUST visit! They have amazing Nepalese dishes cooked in authentic style! I have been to Nepal before and when I tasted the food here the same flavours from my Nepal trips were pampering my palette.. The décor is peaceful and is similar to one of those Buddhist monasteries! They have a section with floor sitting arrangements too which literally made me feel like I'm sitting in one of those homestays of Nepal. This place has good vegetarian as well as vegan options apart from the obvious lamb dishes! The bar has a variety of cocktails and liquors as well. This was my first visit and I'm definitely gonna come back often as I'm already in love with the place. The menu is budget friendly and food is quite healthy as well.

The piping hot tea is...

I ordered lentil soup, daal and shiitake tofu dish. All the food in general was really oily. The rice also didn't taste particularly like fresh cooked basmati rice. There was an option to write a note in case of food allergies. I have unfortunately a bell pepper food allergy and requested to not have the food sent with it. My food came and half of the dish was bell pepper. I usually struggle with this food condition because apparently it isn't that common and much food taste depends on this vegetable and I do understand if some chefs could not conceive the idea of having a dish without it. Therefore I would much prefer being warned beforehand that changes in food aren't possible due to allergic reactions instead. I'm really disappointed unfortunately and I would not order...
