Lucky Star — Restaurant in Berlin

Decided on a Chinese hotpot for our 2nd dinner in Berlin. How it compares to those we've tried in Beijing & Sydney.

We chose the consomme & curry as our stock. Tasted like chicken consomme & laksa. Large platter of frozen sliced beef, lamb & chicken. Platter of Calamari, prawns, fish balls. Large platter of rice noodles, Mushrooms, wombok, spinach. Dipping sauces- chilli & soy sauces & a sesame peanut dippling sauce. We noticed other diners added rice to their selection. We didn't due to potential carb coma afterwards, but rice with the hot pot soup would have been delicious.

On a Wednesday night, half the restaurant was filled. Almost all partaking in the hotpot...over quite a few lagers of beer.

Overall for 22 euro pp, it was great value for all you can eat. I can imagine on a cold, miserable Berlin winter night, the place would be very very busy!

The waitress spoke perfect English. Replenished our plates of sliced meat & veg with a smile without making us feel like gluts.

We rolled out of the restaurant...satisfied after a good meal. The soup at the end of our meal was even more delicious.

Highly recommended for a value for money, all u can eat hot pot experience in Berlin. A good experience to share hot pot with a group of friends. The bigger the group the better with lots of beer!!!

It is not the OTT hot pot that u can get in other predominantly Asian cities, but great for...

The food is good. The service are only polite if they are in the mood. I went last week and the same ok people from the service, were the angry people of today :/ Everything was the same from my side. Today I went there at my lunch time, and they had the big sign of lunch menu outside. As soon as I was about to ask about some random dish, I was told by a girl who spoke perfect English (I chatted with her last week), said "NO LUNCH AFTER 4" and pointed the schedules on the MENU, I said sorry and that I could see that now, but I tried to communicate that there was a whole huge foldable sign outside telling otherwise (unless you read the small print). Yes, the lunch Menu was perfect for what I needed, but I wouldn't have mind to buy anything else. I left because although the restaurant was empty they still they treated me like I was annoying and the girl closed my Menu when I was still seating on the table, like pointing out I was done there. One of the other ladies asked my waitress what happened and she responded rolling her eyes and hand gestures. I was never rude, and I greeted goodbye as I usually do at...

Came there with a friend to introduce him a hotpot concept. Ordered a hotpot for 2 plus another main dish. The friend didn’t want to eat a lot,and I wanted to give him to try a tiny bit of meat, and the waitress came to us saying that she will charge him for this bite. Later the staff was constantly watching and making sure that he doesn’t it from us😅so ridiculous! They also say that if you leave anything they will charge you. So you sit there and feel constantly under pressure, instead of enjoying the food. The selection of the buffet is extremely poor by the way, from seafood you get only shrimps. Initially they brought only 2 shrimps for 2 persons😆The meat was good though. No appetizers, a few veggies. So the whole food comes down to broth with some meat. If you want to get additionally else, you have to ask, wait and wait. The friendliness of the staff, I think, is not even...
