    I have been meaning to go here for a while and three of us went for dinner tonight. If you like the…read moreintense Thai flavours with a bit of kick, this place won't do it for you. This is ok tasting Thai food built for the German palette. It's a reasonably big place with nice intimate dimly lit interiors. There are seats outside as well for the warm days. It's located in a residential area and away from the main road so nice and quite. The menu is fairly big with a selection of starters, soups, salads and mains. It says Thai Vietnamese but most of it was Thai style. I was excited by the massaman curry in the menu and we decided to order it along with a papaya salad, green curry and duck red curry to share. We also had starters and I ordered a Peony Passion cocktail to start. I loved the cocktail but the food lacked the thick creamy texture you can expect in good curries and lacked intensity of flavour. Most of the sauces were too thin and took away from the flavour of the dish. The meat was very good quality but that did not make up for the lack of flavour. It was all ok tasting but nothing that blew me away. I tried the Mung bean ice cream which was also ok and did not taste like much, just quite sweet. Service was very friendly and welcoming and the prices were a bit on the high side. We thought our meal was ok but did not like it enough to make me want to come back here again. I am glad I tried it but not likely to rush back here again.

    Very tasty, and we eat Thai food frequently. The ownera are clearly proud of their food!read more

    I was teetering between 3 and 4 stars with Huong Viet. I was really craving Vietnamese tonight…read more After stopping by another place, which I found out was closed for vacation/holiday for a whole month (really?), I stumbled upon Huong Viet. No English menu. Not even a full Vietnamese menu. Only a German menu even with German names for the dishes. Towards the back, there was one page entitled something along the lines of "Vietnamese Specialties". This is the only page I saw names of dishes I actually recognized in Vietnamese! Not sure what all those other pages are supposed to be then... I ordered the Pho Dac Biet (Pho Special). This was definitely not the PDB I am used to back home. This is where I struggled between 3 or 4 stars. Some of the differences I liked. Others not so much. But overall, I decided to give it 4 stars. I do see myself coming back to try other things eventually. But for now, my overly detailed breakdown of their Pho Dac Biet. Noodles: I'm going to take a stab that the couple running this place is of northern Vietnamese decent. I only say that because the noodles were the wider ribbon style. Thinner squared cross section noodles are generally a Southern Vietnamese thing. Broth: Had a slight tamarind flavor to it. Similar to the Vietnamese sour soup (Canh Chua). Definitely was not expecting that in my Pho, but it was a nice surprise. Meat: Chicken, beef, and a couple of prawns. No tripe, tendon, beef balls, or brisket. But again, this is probably a regional Vietnamese thing (I'm happy to get input from someone who's more familiar with northern Vietnamese dishes). The beef was tough and not the best quality. The chicken was fine. But the prawns were probably the highlight of the meal. Vegetables: Onions, cilantro, and ginger from what I could tell. That last one threw me off as I'm not the biggest fan of ginger. I usually pick out the ginger from my food. Unless it's pickled ginger. And this was not. But alas, I ate it anyway. The onions were diced instead of sliced. But that's just my preference. No side of basil, bean sprouts, jalapeño, and lemon. But again, north vs south is my guess. Condiments: There was no Nuoc Mam (fish sauce) on the table. Not having this is definitely no-no in my book. Except for when I'm so hungry that I've nearly finished my food by the time I've realized I should have asked for it. Next time! There was soy sauce. But seriously, who would put that in their pho? Fortune cookie: -1 for even having fortune cookies at a Vietnamese restaurant. +1 for the fortune being in German, English, French, and some other language I didn't recognize. Who'd have thought I'd be learning German from a cookie!

    Really delicious though simple food. The service is also great. The ambience is simple and…read morenon-pretentious, but really, as long as it's delicious - who cares? Will gladly come again!
