I had the D25, flat noodles stir fry with beef. It was excellent and the taste was wonderful. I could have used a little more beer and less noodles but I ended up full and happy either way. Great little spot for what appears to be pretty authentic Chinese foodl read more

Not the kind of Chinese restaurants you see pretty often in Europe, which only serves buffet and so-called Chinese dishes that are pre-cooked supermarket items. For a moment I thought that was back the States and dining in a Chinatown restaurant. This place is quite authentic as in being Chinese in all regards. The boss won't hesitate to drop by the kitchen and get his hand dirty. And they don't offer you made-up Chinese cuisines, which many restaurants do. You can understand each and every dish by google its name. Kinda tricky but it helps. read more

This is difficult for me to admit, but yes-I am a closet yelper. I have rarely been satisfied enough by my meal to consider cracking open the door of repression and sharing my experiences with others, and lesser times yet without the influence of alcohol, but the meal I enjoyed at this restaurant tonight is worth sober-waving a rainbow colored (or whatever series of colors yelp lurkers are represented by) flag for. I am a cheap person and was delighted to find reasonably priced food. You can expect to pay about 10 euros per person if you only order entrees. My wife and I consumed our meal family buffet style, which this restaurant is really made for. If you're timid and may be concerned about ordering authentic Chinese, there is no need to be here. The menu is spelled out in a few languages, including English, and every dish also has its picture next to it. Better yet, the food that comes out actually looks like the picture! They have the typical Chinese dishes (i.e. sweet and sour chicken) for you to fall back on if cat tongue or whatever (they don't actually serve cat tongue... On the menu anyways. If they did I would consider getting it because everything looks delicious) doesn't quite do it for your palette. We had the sweet and sour chicken as well as the double fried pork, both of which were great. It was nice to be able to flip back and forth between a sweet and a savory dish. Most items like our chicken or pork also come with white rice. There are other options in back of the menu (noodles, fried rice) that are served as a stand alone dish. The service was quick, something I haven't experienced in Europe yet either. They have a more secluded section then another section that houses a ~60 inch TV. They adjusted the volume according to our preference and we watched Mulan a couple of times. Just kidding, it was some soccer match. Although I didn't receive a fortune cookie to tell me that sunshine is a ray of hope or that new friends are just around the corner, I was impressed enough to creep out of the bowels of my dark hole, break the silence, share my feelings, cover myself with feathers, lead the parade, and wave the flag for Lao Xiang. read more

Do try the double fried pork, it's slightly spicy and amazing. Its not like anything you've tried before! Of course if you feel like eating chicken or frog legs, oyster or octopus Lao Xiang is the place for all of them. The place is quite big, has even a private golden room and the service is nice. read more

Truly authentic Chinese food, with Hunan focus. Very reasonably priced and nice atmosphere. In summertime also relaxed seating outside. read more

Lao Xiang - Chinese Near Me - Berlin, BE

I love this place, definitely he most authentic Chinese in Berlin. Have the feuertopf which is not on the menu (ask for it), it is great for a few friends and great value. The dumplings are some of the best I have tried. Menu might seem expensive bit courses are about sharing then having on your own. read more

I had double fried beef. Unfortunately the taste was not mine. But the whole menu looks very interesting and still would to come again to try another menu. There are so many choices. read more

We enjoyed the cold wood ear salad/ fish congee/ pork buns/ cumin lamb. Cool atmosphere

to be honest, Chinese food is not my most favourite cuisine but I simply love this restaurant. I fell in love with their visually magnificent menu cards. and the food is terrific. I'm so lucky it's right next to the corner of my flat that I could come as much as I want. read more

Great authentic Chinese food. Also try the hotpot which is actually not on the menu. Random funny note: The Xi'an warrior near to the bathroom is holding a Germany flag - not sure why. read more

Had a great meal!! I was happy to finally find a real Chinese restaurant on the east side of Berlin. Usually one has to make the trip to West Berlin. This place has a great menu with all sorts of delights. I have just begun to try the delights. I had a great plate of fried pork and dumplings, chicken feet dim sum, a delicious Aubergine and green beans side, and pork knuckes in a sweet sauce. It is best to go with large groups so you can share and taste many different plates. Not the cheapest place but a place to get great food with variety and culture. read more

3* is for the nice staff. Food really is disappointing. Not quality ingredients & uses cheap substitutes. Dishes came out different than in the menu pictures. We have a Chinese speaking Chinese talking to the waitress & hoping the food we ordered will be "for Chinese". Disappointed it came out still "European" Chinese food. Using the wrong ingredients just didn't bring the right tastes. Staff is nice, presentation of the food is nice. But I wish it had more good taste than looks. read more

Well, I don't know what authentic Chinese food is, because I've never been to China, but this was really fantastic. We ordered two main courses, which turned out to be A LOT of food, and I think it's common for people to share a main course and get a starter. But I am so happy to have a really good restaurant in the neighborhood finally. I want to try most of the things on the menu, and some of them are a bit scary for Western palates (chicken feet and frog meat included) but in the end we just had a beef stew and a lamb thing that we finished. I look forward to eating there many more times in the future. read more

We had a great experience in this place located next to the train station in Prenzlauer Berg. The prices are quite inexpensive. Service is very attentive and dedicated. Portions are quite big. Food is quite tasty and the menu is quiet big. Maybe not the most authentic Chinese food that you can find but certainly a good value for your buck. read more

Really good Chinese hot pot!! Other things on the menu looked good too but were a bit pricy. Awesome place to eat at on a cold day and they have wifi!! read more

I went this restaurant several times. Some of the menu is good others little disappointment. First me and my friends try the Hotpot which was very nice it really warms me up from freezing weather in Berlin. But after satisfying meal i try my self to other menus and it was shameful. First the dumpling they sell? Its clearly not 'homemade' which they claimed. If it was really homemade it shouldn't taste like typical frozen goods from Asia supermarkets. Also some of main dishes was too dry and too much sauce. I only recommend Hotpot.. read more

Actually address is Wichartstrasse 43. Fantastic family-run Chinese restaurant from south China. Excellent authentic food reasonably priced. One of my really regular places. I am eating thru the ENTIRE menu!!! read more

Mit dem Lao Xiang hat sich endlich ein authentisches Chinarestaurant in den Pberg gewagt und ich hoffe es wird belohnt. Sehr leckeres Essen jenseits von Ente Süß-Sauer oder Hühnchen mit Reis. Wir hatten als Vorpeise die Jiaozi (mit Schwein gefüllte Teigtaschen) und als Hauptgerichte das doppelt gebackene Schweinefleisch und den Tofu mit Schweine- und Rindfleisch. Alles war sehr lecker und in anständigen Portionen! Hungrig geht hier also niemand raus :-) Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist auch sehr in Ordnung inkl. netter Bedienung. Den einen Punkt Abzug gibt es nur für das etwas kalte und minimalistische Ambiente im Restaurant. Alles in allem: absolute Empfehlung!! read more

Searching for a new restaurant for tonight, we found this one and tried it the first time. Interior is modern and nice. The menu offers lots of authentic dishes and the photos shown are quite close to what you get. The choice of dishes is a bit wider than other chinese restaurants, most of them being hunan style. We tried a lot and it was very good compared to other chinese restaurants in Berlin. The spicy cucumber has a great unique taste, and all dishes came in their original hot and spicy taste. They even had very yummy durian fruit desserts. Service was very friendly and fast, just the boss hasn't been so friendly, but just showed up once. So with really nice food and service, also reasonable price, we enjoyed the evening a lot. This one is in the top league for Berlin. Now we tried it some more times and enjoyed the same nice experience. We will come back to try more Definitely worth a try for all who are missing chinese/sichuan/hunan food here and are too lazy to cook at home. read more
