    Noodle beef vegetables
    Todd H.

    I love this restaurant. Light Asian meals with lots of vegetables are a welcome option when traveling. Vietnamese Staff is nice and pleasant, though laid back in that decidedly German way. Food is always fresh and well presented. Summer rolls are an easy take away meal, too. They do accept credit cards, too.

    Great extremely spring rolls. YUM!

    Ich empfehle euch, BUNCHA zu essen.. Reisbandnudeln mit Schweine Suppe, ein bisschen sauer, aber es schmeckt gut.. Auch nicht teuer..

    First thing's first: definitely secure that reservation. I believe they reopen for dinner at 6pm…read moreand there was an entire line out the door waiting for them to open. The ambience is great inside, with cute decor and good vibes. The service was surprisingly prompt and attentive given our experience with other places in Berlin-- we got our food all in good time with adequate time in between to catch up with the other people we were getting dinner with. The absolute STARS of this meal were the appetizers. The spring rolls were huge and so crispy and came with lettuce to wrap it in. The server also recommended a shrimp dish that we had never had before, so we decided to try it. I have no idea what this dish is because I've never even seen it in NYC, but it was amazing-- toasted bread pieces with shrimp and a cream/cheese-like sauce. It was super indulgent but incredible all the same. The main courses were all in all good. The chicken rice was kinda like a niu rou fan (the minced pork over rice Taiwanese rice dish) but just chicken. It was an interesting serving method-- with the chicken stock on the side. I was a little confused because I wasn't sure if it was supposed to end up as a soup? But no, the rice just absorbs the soup and makes it more flavorful! The pho was a standout only because of the sheer amount of meat they gave us. We got the three beef pho (so brisket, steak, AND meatballs). I have never seen any restaurant be THIS generous with the meat. I split this bowl with my sister and it didn't even seem like I'd eaten any meat when I passed it over to her after eating half. The noodles were a little too al dente for me, but that fact was completely overshadowed by the fact that we got a. ton. of meat. We went to 3 Vietnamese places while in Germany and I'd definitely say this was my favorite!

    coffee and a bahn mi costs about 19€. Big portions, high quality ingredients, and quick service…read moredespite being busy
