It was raining and I was nearby and in need of a quick meal. I asked the waiter what he would recommend - he was very polite (that earned the 2nd star) and suggested Pad Thai. I'm a huge fan of Pad Thai and I'm not from Germany (visiting Berlin only for a brief moment), so I eagerly agreed. Over the years I have consumed Pad Thai at at least 50 different restaurants in different countries - this one turned out to be the most expensive that I have ever ordered, so my expectations were somewhat high and even though I usually know to not order Pad Thai in restaurants that specialise specifically in Thai cuisine, I have been surprised at least a handful of times by non-thai cooks who managed to do an outstanding job with this dish. Unfortunately that was not the case this time - I highly doubt that the cook has ever seen a proper Pad Thai. Rice Noodles with some broccoli, some random greens (which would in all honesty better suit a vietnamese Bun Cha) and roasted onion instead of peanuts? Sauce that is nearly non-existant and has nothing in common with tamarind paste? In all honesty, what I received would make for an OK (although mediocre) meal if it was named some other way than "Pad Thai", which it didn't even clumsily imitate. What I payed for, I...
Read moreThis is an honest review so please do read - I was in berlin recently and i like vietnamese and asian food,imagine i brought my friends here after seeing the reviews and i think half of them are definately fake,we ordered different meals we were a group of 9 people and out of 9 people not one said my dish was good,the food was not even ok and it was below paar,when ordering we asked the waiter to suggest what is good,he started lecturing us that you should make your own choice and not ask us,different people have different choices,i had ordered a peanut sauce dish and later when i gave him feedback that it was not that great he says who orders peanut,i would never do that,i asked him why he didnt mention it while placing order,he said its your choice not mine,he was so rude!!,when it came to the billing we all wanted to say seperate,but he said you can settle among yourself and please 1 guy pay all together.he said he cant give machine for 10 20 euros but for 160 euros he could use the machine,i didnt understand the logic,my friends were furious what restaurant you brought us to.outside its written since 2021,i would say please improve your food quality and keep better people are work rather than some clowns who...
Read moreThe food was good, and the waiter was friendly. We thought we found a good restaurant- Until it was time to pay the bill. I asked if I could pay with card. The waiter said yes but he also said twice they prefer cash. I found it strange but the bill total was more than I expected it to be. I paid it along with a good tip for German standards. He gave me no bill which was strange too. He only showed me the total on a display. However, I felt that something was wrong. Before leaving, I told him that I felt that there was something wrong with the math. I was right. He put another bottle of water on the bill even though it was clear we only had a bottle of water. He said sorry and didn't even contest it because I am pretty sure it was done on purpose. This restaurant is right in a place frequented by tourists, and he probably thought we were tourists. I am 99% sure that it was done on purpose. Ask for the bill whenever you go here if you have to go here in the first place.I am sure that a few people have been...
