Huong Lua — Restaurant in Berlin

Nice Vietnamese restaurant. I very like that their veggies are fresh are perfectly cooked. The Summer Rolls as starters are simply delicious! Especially the peanut sauce that accompanies them is heaven!

The flavor of the veggie soup is great! Same of the lemon grass tea. My friends had Vit Kürbis (Red curry with pumpkin and duck) and Vit Spargel (Green Curry with asparagus and duck). They liked it but mentioned that it was nothing extraordinary.

What I am missing is the presentation of the food. The tea cups and the bowl of the soup are not helpful in transmitting the Vietnamese vibes. Also the food is missing some details in the presentation which could surely make the restaurant benefit. Therefore I discounted 2 stars from the atmosphere.

Ate dinner here on a Wednesday night in November 2024 (6pm). The restaurant was quite empty when we arrived and the waitstaff was very attentive. They do not sell alcohol but have a selection of homemade drinks. I got the red curry with chicken and it was excellent. The chicken was very tender and the vegetables were cooked just right. The broccoli was the best. I asked for very spicy and it was mild (in my opinion). If you like spicy food don’t be afraid to ask for more spice. Wife got the Bun Nam Saigon salad (not spicy) and she said hers was just right. We planned to use the credit card but waiter requested cash so plan accordingly. Noise level was low so we could converse. Restaurant was very busy when we left. Really...
