Renown DJ Paul van Dyke years ago said this was his favorite Vietnamese restaurant in West Berlin, though truth be told nobody is sure what happened between now and then. The food is ok enough though what is done in the back is clearly undone in the front. Standard Vietnamese-Berlin service, meaning, friendly, smiling but haphazard attention. Cash only throws a further wrench into the unassuming customer. Nothing that distinguishes this restaurant from the hordes of other run-of-the-mill Vietnamese restaurants in town. read more

It was not the first time we were here. It's definitely also not the last time. We love coming here and ordering a bunch of their "small dishes" to share. All the dishes are freshly made, served on a bed of salad and a specialty sauce. "Traumhaft", as they say around here read more

Saigon Green - Vietnamese Near Me - Berlin, BE

Saigon Green is an authentic Vietnamese restaurant in West Berlin. The food is awesome but the service is okay. After receiving five star service at Saigon and more, the service here cannot even begin to compare. They CHARGE you for TAP water. If you order more than one glass then they charge. I have never heard of this kind of nonsense before. To start, we tried the following spring rolls Autumn Rolls: Rice paper rolls with marinated beef, sesame salad, cucumbers, spring onions, rice noodles, and herbs Lucky Rolls: Rice paper spring rolls with vegetables and plum chili noodles. These rolls are fried. I wish the description clearly stated this but they were still tasty. We tried the following Pho soups: Pho Bo: rice noodles with beef in broth, ginger, and green lemon Bun Mang: Vietnamese rice noodle soup with spicy bamboo, tofu, chili, and ginger Sup Mien Ga: Glass noodle soup with chicken broth, vegetables, sesame oil, chives and ginger Sup Wan Tan: Homemade spicy soup with vegetables, classic wontons stuffed with shrimp and chicken, snow peas and herbs For salad supplements, we tried the following: Goi Chay: Salad of fresh cabbage, tofu, red onions, celery, glass noodles, herbs and peanuts. Goi Mekong: Flavored spicy glass noodles with shrimp, vegetables, peanuts, sesame seeds, and herbs. I loved both sets of spring rolls. The Goi Mekong salad was the best. The shrimp was so fresh and the flavor was absolutely delightful. All four pho soups that we tried had their own unique and flavorful broths. The only one I did not like was the Bun Mang. The rice noodles in this soup were okay. I think the glass noodles in the Sup Mein Ga are much better. All of the dishes with glass noodles were phenomenal. Overall, the food here is authentic and certainly worth a visit! read more

For once I don't mind sharing my food Tbh I was pretty stuffed before I came in here. That's what a week long wurst fest does to you. She doesn't like to eat alone and I was just being polite really :-( So looking down at my bulging belly then glancing at the menu I had to make a decision. So I plumped for 3 small plates, secretly hoping she would share most of it. This is a busy place, but most Vietnamese places are busy in this area and Kant Straße is Asian food central. My curried chicken, satay chicken and Vietnamese rolls were pretty good and a little too much even for a hungry person. So she tucked in too, nibbling away between gulps of roast duck and rice. I'm glad I came now, but I think breakfast will be given a wide swerve :-S read more

Service was great and the food came out quickly. The noodle dish was underwhelming...lacking flavor. The shrimp skewer was pretty good as was the fresh spring roll. The best thing was the crispy duck. Get it - get two - you will not be disappointed. read more

Very helpful and friendly staff with English menus. Good selections of dumplings and healthy alternatives. Veggie spring rolls were tiny but cooked to perfection. read more

Saigon Green - Shrimp wontons, duck rolls and pork buns! - Vietnamese Near Me - Berlin, BE

Excellent. Everything is fresh and full of complex, complimentary flavors and spices. Some of the best Vietnamese food I've ever had. Even the tea selection is vast and creative. Highly recommended. read more

Went there with some friends today. We ordered 3 of the daily main course specials (chicken curry, duck and squid salad) plus the shrimp salad with glas noodles and some "Kleinigkeiten" (Summer rolls, papaya salad, crispy shrimp rolls). Everything was BEYOND delishes. You have to try the small papaya salad, the chicken curry and the squid salad. Loved the sauce they served with the summer rolls (if you ask you can get more of it plus a whole rack with more sauces and spices). Their veggies are super fresh and crisp. My fav Asian restaurant in this area so far. Will be back soon!! read more

Great service- very friendly staff! I was not a huge fan of the Pho I ordered (basic chicken broth with herbs and sprouts), but friends ordered s spicy Pho and a curry dish that were both amazing! Very busy on the weekends (good sign!), waiter said Mondays are the slowest nights, FYI. read more

Very good place with delicious Asian tapas, if you can call it that. Staff is friendly and prices are reasonable for the area. Have not yet tried any of their main dishes, but would guess that they are equally good. Not 5 stars just because some other Asian places in the area deliver similar quality. read more

The menu is promising here but unfortunately like some other Vietnamese places in Berlin the food is drowned in super sweet nuoc cham or hoisin sauce. I've given this place a few chances and don't understand the hype. Service staff is busy, good looking but not overly nice (typical berlin). Food looks nice with standard garnishes of ample nuts and lettuce-carrot mix, but there seems to be little respect for textures and tastes. I wish they would just put the stuff in separate dishes like in VN so we can season to taste. read more

Great food, nice staff and good prices. A bit uncomfortable chairs if I had to point my fingers at something (but really nothing).

We were in Saigon Green last night for dinner after been told that it is a great restaurant but I`m totally disappointed. It is ok for European who has no idea what Saigon/Vietnames food is all about. The whole thing is not real. It is more or less catered for European . The dishes that we ordered( 3 main dishes) are all top up with white and red cabbage leaving about 5 small prawns swimming in between the gravy or 3 thin slices of duck. under the Hoisin sauce. The small dishes( we had 5) are also the same except for the tofu dish the rest are all only cabbages. We ordered a small bowl of rice and cost 1.50€ extra. In most Asian restaurant, rice is included. There was not a single Asian guest there last night , showing you that they know where a good Asian place is . There are a few real good Asian restaurant in the Kant str but Saigon Green is not one of them read more

Although food and presentation were fine at this trendy local spot, unfortunately we were totally ripped off here as tourists in September 2012. When we questioned why we were charged 2 euros each for half a glass of water (when we ordered regular water), the waitress answered, "on this street we can do it." Needless to say, we used her tip to cover the cost of the water and will make sure that no one from my corporation eats here. read more

Super fresh food, a culinary experience at a cheap price. Fresh exciting drinks and super tasty food. Ate here 3 days in a row with my family, easy to find. read more

Nice but too crowded. Same concept like many other similar restaurants. The sits are not very comfortable and the foods are average.

Been there today as I wanted to compare this one to another one in the neighborhood (Saigon today). After my dinner I must say, they seem very much the same however the food here is a little less interesting than the one in Wilmersdorfer strasse. The weather today was nice and sunny, so we choose to sit outside under the shades. Perfect. We choose some spicy chicken drum sticks as starters. They were very tasty, in a sweet fish sauce with some fresh herbs and a tiny salad on the side. As a Hauptgericht we choose two different soups: one with wantan and the other with thin slices of chicken breast. Both soups were tasty however not rich which my companion would have liked and I found it to be nice in the hot weather. For drinks we choose one of Saigon greens freshly made lemonades (lemon + mint) with ice. Nicely done and also refreshing. Giving this place 3 stars. I would go for it if I came by however I would not walk a long way just to get to this place. There are many other nice vietnamese restaurants around, and this one is much like the others. read more
