I’ve been a frequent customer at this restaurant and often bring new friends to try the food. On October 1st, I visited at 9:45 PM. Unfortunately, the welcome was not very friendly this time, likely due to the time. We were given the menu, but within a minute, the server asked us to place our order. I requested an extra five minutes as we hadn’t decided yet, but the server said that wasn’t possible because it was 9:50, and they had to close the kitchen.
When I tried to order a mango lassi, I was told they didn’t have it available because they were missing ingredients. I assumed it was actually because the smoothie machine had already been cleaned, which was visible from the bar. When our food arrived, I asked for two glasses of tap water, and we saw the server pour tap water into two small glasses.
At the end of our meal, we were charged €1 for one glass of tap water, which I refused to pay because at no point was I informed that tap water would cost anything. I’m not sure if I did the right thing, but I don’t understand why I would be charged for tap water, especially if it wasn’t filtered or bottled water. The server was unfriendly throughout our visit, and when I refused to pay for the water, she told me I wasn’t welcome to return to the restaurant.
As a loyal customer who has brought many new people here, I found this disappointing. One of the other waiters (male) is always very kind and gives great service, so I don’t understand why I would be banned from returning. I still 100% recommend the restaurant because the food is delicious and filling, but only if you don’t get served by the...
Read moreIt's a nice restaurant with cool looking interior design and delicious food. I like that everything is vegan. Had the pho, and it was good. They also gave extra cilantro without a problem. It's kind of unfortunate that there are a lot of homeless and mentally unstable people around begging and just being insane... but that's, of course, not the restaurants fault. You can only pay by card at minimum 15 euro and i didn't know that. So since I had no cash on me, I had to pay 15 euro for an 11 euro soup.... I just feel like they could have made an exception and let me pay the 11 euro by card, but they actually charged me 15 and didn't even offer to give anything extra. Due to this, I wouldn't come back since they are just too many good restaurants around that offer the same type of food and also let you pay by card at whatever price. The restaurant was completely empty too, and it was lunchtime. I wouldn't come back, but I do recommend trying it out since the...
Read moreNice option if you are looking for vegan food near Oberbaumbrücke. It's definitively worth crossing Sprewa, especially if you are looking for stunning river views during the walk.
The food was quite unusual and service was all right, also in fluent English.
The only but very important thing that might be noticeable is quite long waiting time for order. I felt that they prefer food suppliers from the app than customers in the restaurant, even on Friday evening 😞 Luckily we also ordered some sweet potato fries and it saved our lives 😀
Card payment is also missing which is simply strange nowadays - be ready for that and take cash instead 😉
PS. I would love to see more beers to choose from. Wersteiner is nice but it becames a little bit boring, especially if you like...
