    Sadhu - Butter chicken

    An absolutely outstanding Pakistani restaurant…read more Everything on our table was completely outstanding. But I am going to talk about one and only one dish. The Tandoori Duck. * * * We don't usually do Tandoori duck in the U.S., Although exceptions undoubtedly exist. Germany has the advantage of having excellent ducks Which we don't And having duck being very plentiful on the market. The contrast is that goat, which is common on American Indian-Pakistani menus, almost never shows up on such menus here. Here, you also get mutton. So Duck and Mutton are the two "dark meats" that substitute for goat in Berlin. * * * In a tandoori, Duck is absolutely positively amazing. Triple that if you are dealing with a superior duck with a nice lining of fat over the breast bone. * * * Add to that the fact that the tandoori I have had in Berlin has generally been superior no matter where I get it. The tandoori of my youth tended to be a dry affair with red color meat pure and simple. It was cooked enough to get hot. Otherwise it was nothing special - and it was dry to boot. This is not the tandoori of my youth. All of the tandoori I have been served here in Berlin has had outstanding sauces. The Berlin tandoori also has had vegetables tossed in with the meat. The veggies are cooked to al dente perfection and are bursting with flavor. Is this because Berlin tandoori is better than American tandoori? Or is this because tandoori cooking has gotten better than the grim dishes I used to eat thirty years ago? I don't have an answer to that question. * * * Either way, Put a perfect duck into a tandoori over. Add the perfect sauce. Add vegetables cut at the right size to al dente. You die and go to heaven. But mostly the thrills are the duck, the duck, the duck and then the duck. My wife's food was good, and the other Yelpers say the food is good. So you can't go wrong ordering whatever you like. I still say: Get the Tandoori Duck.

    My partner and I visited Sadhu on a weekday (we booked a reservation in advance because they allow…read morethis on their website). We were sat in the back of the restaurant which is fine but we were next to a speaker that was too loud :( I ordered butter chicken (my fav) and my boyfriend picked a random menu item so I'm not sure what it was. The chicken was.... Not great :( the butter chicken sauce was really good but I was not at all interested in eating the chicken as it had a weird taste and texture. They have happy hour on all weekdays where cocktails are 5€ which is a good deal. We didn't take advantage of the deal but might not be a bad call. I don't know if we'd go back but maybe I wouldn't get the chicken.

    We ordered thru wolt delivery, we got the veggie thali that came with 3 dishes (kofta, panned, and…read moredhal) a ton of rice, salad, and some naan, and I have to say everything we got was delicious and flavorful! My husband got the lamb curry and he said the meat was really tasty. Next time I would probably order extra naan because we have enough leftovers to eat this for the next couple of days (so needless to say portions are quite generous). We paid about 38€ including delivery fee and tip for our driver and I think this was fair for the amount and quality of food.

    This really should be 2 1/2 stars, almost 3. There was nothing to make it stand out from other…read moreplaces. The mutton biriani was fine, but lacking something. The Lamb vindaloo was bland. So what is the point of having vindaloo if it is bland? Just unremarkable all around. Not bad, just not that good or anything to make this place stand out. the other thing was this was the only restaurant in Berlin that seemed to want to turn our table and get us to hurry through the meal. Even to the point of trying to take out plates before we were even done, twice. The second time we decided to just take things home. Then instead of boxing our left overs as we asked, they dumped the things we were going to take home. I can kind of mark this up to our spotty German and probably wrong selection of a verb but when about half of a dish is left you might think twice about dumping it. But of course when you are trying to turn a table in a nearly empty restaurant why think twice?
