With no exaggeration, this is the best restaurant I have ever been to. I went to this place twice with my boyfriend during our stay in Berlin (we cancelled our reservation for a different restaurant because this one was just so good) and had a blast each time. The first time we were there we were just speechless at how amazing everything was there. The main courses I had were the best food I've ever had, it was also well worth the price (it tasted soooo good, it was nicely seasoned and balanced, the presentation was beautiful, like a piece of art, the portions were huge - the Mido Ramen I ordered seemed like 3 big portions instead of just one to me!), the drinks were nice too, they didn't charge us anything extra for a box to take the leftover food home with us, the service was pretty quick (we got our drinks within 5 - 10 minutes, our food within 5 - 15 minutes (depending on whether it was an appetiser or the main course)), I also appreciated that we were provided with both chopsticks and utensils (as I can't use chopsticks :d) and that the menu was in English as well, it looked really nice inside, the atmosphere was amazing, so cozy and romantic (the light was moody, the decorations peaceful and the music soothing and nice to listen to - first time it was some slow music with sounds of nature, second time some soft jazz music), the restaurant was nicely located (approximately 2 minutes of walking from a tram station), there (surprisingly) wasn't that many people there, the staff was really nice and respectful and spoke English well, the bathrooms were clean and fun (I really liked the tap - see the video, the foam soap and getting towels using a sensor). The only cons I can think of are that one of the stalls in the women's bathroom didn't close well (you had to push hard and lock it to close it properly), it was a bit hard to fit my backpack somewhere near me in the restaurant because there wasn't that much free space (so my long legs also had a bit of trouble fitting under the table :d), the acoustics weren't the best (it was a bit difficult to hear my boyfriend talking) and the light made it a bit hard to take nice pictures because it was so moody and yellowish, but I'm nit-picking here. Overall, this was an amazing experience and I recommend everyone, vegans, vegetarians or meat eaters to visit this place! If I lived near this place, I'd...
Read moreWe had such a lovely dinner at Mido Sakura yesterday. We started off with some of their home made drinks : the Kiwi crush and the Mango ice tea and both drinks were so yummy and beautifully presented. We then ordered some starters and the fresh mango salad was not only delicious but also served in a fresh orange ! You could tell by every dish that menu is very creative and that the chef has an eye for detail. My boyfriend had one of their rice and veggie bowls with teriyaki sauce and it was not only super delicious but so nourishing and healthy. For dessert we went for the mango rice pudding with black sticky rice and caramel and it was one of the best rice puddings I had so far. The service was excellent and everyone was very attentive and friendly. If you love flowers like myself you can even enjoy your food under a sky of pink cherry blossoms …so pretty ! We absolutely loved the whole experience and will...
Read moreWhat an absolutely wonderful place! Upon entering the restaurant it is obvious that this place is a labor of love. This is apparent in the decor, the comfortable and flowing interior design, cleanliness and correct acoustic design that so many loud restaurants lack in. For starters we had the Suppai-Soup and Eggplant rolls - both well prepared, accurately seasoned and delicious. For main course we had the clay-pot red curry vegan duck and the Kurimu-Udon (Udon noodles in delicate mushroom sauce) both we had in other places and both here won first place in comparison. For desert we had the black rice with mango which was very good but the absolute winner was the Apple-Gyoza which was a work of art.
Finally - the service was fantastic. Fast, thoughtful and always with a big smile :)
Highly recommended to...
