T. Viet Charlottenburg — Restaurant in Berlin

I live just a minute's walk from this café and visited often. I've brought probably twenty people with me over the last couple of months, and spent so much money. Usually I'm just there for a normal meal or drink, but a couple of times a week I liked to also bring my laptop or a book and work for a few hours, usually with my boyfriend. Given that the place is very much empty for 90% of the day, and that the only other options are a few seats at a tiny bar, I didn't feel bad about sitting in the four person table by the window - on the handful of occasions that I was there during the lunch rush, I always had a few people join me and we ordered a lot and left a decent tip. Even alone, I never just sat there for hours without ordering anything extra, and I'd often have four or five drinks plus food over a few hours just for me.

This changed when I came in and was immediately and quite rudely ordered to move from the table onto the bar seats. There were only two other customers in the restaurant, and both were also sitting alone at four person tables, but I didn't object. Then another lone person came in and sat at the same table I was at, without being asked to move. At this point I asked why I was moved but nobody else was, and I was told that I take too long and everybody else just eats and goes. I was actually only even planning to be there for a 30 minute coffee, but I just replied that I had no idea that I was considered to be in the way when I stayed. I thought that I was being a good customer by ordering a lot of things in an empty café and recommending the place to everyone as a nice, quite place to hang out for a bit. At that point I just knocked back my coffee and left, because I felt so awkward.

I certainly don't want to be anywhere where I'm not wanted, and I don't feel comfortable...

Horrible experience in this place. If you are allergic do something, don't go there! And really rude waiter.

I went to have dinner with my boyfriend who's allergic to peanut, he said that when we ordered the food and they guaranteed the dish was without it. A few minutes after he was eating, he had an allergic reaction, his throat starrs to swallow, he gets super red because he starts having a hard time breathing. We called the waiter and instead of trying to help or at least apologize, she was discussing with him saying that there was nothing in the food, that he probably had something else. Made some horrible comments that 'some people die of it' and 'he was fine'. After more than one discussion, a really defensive and aggressive response, and not even one I'm sorry for what happened.

It was really serious for us, and really sad to see such a careless staff. I really do not...

It was the perfect escape from Berlin’s fast-paced, hectic vibe.

I’m giving all factors 5 stars this time - because it truly deserves it!

Today, I was looking for a place to grab a quick dinner and charge my phone (note: there’s only one socket available in the restaurant) while waiting for a friend to arrive at the central bus station. Luckily, I stumbled upon this Vietnamese restaurant, where I was warmly welcomed not only by a polite and attentive lady but also by a beautifully designed interior and a peaceful atmosphere.

I instantly fell in love with the Vietnamese beef soup and the elegant serving style! It was such a relief to enjoy my meal in a calm, authentic environment—so much so that I almost felt...
