PHO - Noodlebar (Zoo) — Restaurant in Berlin

The Best Pho in Berlin - Consistently Amazing

If you're looking for the best Pho in Berlin, look no further. I’ve been visiting this restaurant for quite some time now, both alone and with friends, and it never disappoints. Every visit is a delightful experience, and I’ve always walked away satisfied.

The star of the show, of course, is the Pho. Whether you're craving the classic beef Pho or something else from their rich menu, the flavors never fail to impress. The broth is always perfectly balanced – rich, aromatic, and packed with depth. The noodles are perfectly cooked, and the fresh herbs and vegetables that accompany the dish add a refreshing contrast to the warm, savory flavors of the soup. It's comforting and delicious every single time.

One of my absolute favorite appetizers is the spring rolls with prawns and crabs. The filling is generous, the prawns is always fresh, and the crab meat adds a delightful sweetness to the rolls. Wrapped in crisp rice paper and served with a flavorful dipping sauce, they are the perfect start to the meal.

Another great touch is the free tea they serve while you’re waiting. It’s a small gesture but really adds to the overall experience, making you feel valued as a customer and setting the tone for a cozy meal.

Whenever I have a craving for Pho, this is the place I always return to. The combination of great food, consistent quality, and friendly service makes it my go-to spot in Berlin for Pho. If you're in the area, definitely give it a try – it’s always...

After the renovation of the premises the situation did not improve. They added a hallway and created a bathroom in the basement. Maybe it's just my impression, but I seem to see three different types of people working here: 1) very young people who run a lot, but have no experience 2) young people who almost arrogantly address the customer, whose greatest quality is asking the tip 3) adults who know how to do their job and somehow keep the place going. Pay attention to it. Maybe it's just my wrong perception, but it seems to me that the young people, probably responsible for the place, tend to behave like spoiled children. Tonight I was placed next to the door (which takes too long to close considering it's February in Berlin) and after almost fifteen minutes I was finally brought a menu. they changed my cutlery twice, brought what I think was tea, now frozen and undrinkable and after I ordered, they gave me food very quickly. Good sign? Not for me, it's a sign that everything is probably pre-cooked. halfway through dinner, I voluntarily started writing this review. The waiter, perhaps moved by the desire to clear the table, came twice to ask me if I had finished. This looks like a Vietnamese fast food chain. But with restaurant prices. And no, please stop pointing out that tip is not included if you provide terrible service. They have 2 wifi, but they...

The taste is so terrible compared to other (real) vietnamese food. Pho soup is almost like a hot water, no herbs. Another one I ordered dry Pho is even worse. The worst vietnamese shop in Germany I have ever tried. For foreigners maybe can eat. BUT highly not recommended for asians. The taste is by far lower than average authentic asian food.

Price is higher than average vietnamesefood.

The MENU!! They wrote Tiger tale shrimp roll, how comes that the food only come with the small white shrimp! ?This is totally another thing especially in term of price. In the picture I put...is that the tiger shrimp?

The online reservation system does not work in real. We booked the table and then we reached, had to wait 20 mins for table? What is the point to use the system.

Service was ok, slow. Staff passed the tray to each other over my head when I sit on the table(in some culture maybe ok, but they are vietnamese I guess it is like other Asian cultures that it is not a good manner) . spending time to chit chat and did not come to take the order.

At the end, ...ask to put the tips. How dare!

Never...
