Ben Thanh Restaurant in Berlin

Delicious!!! I would love to come back!!

Absolute recommendation for food, always well attended, reservation recommended.

I love this restaurant. Relatively cheep prices but the taste is great (South Vietnamese taste). Each portion is generous. The only disadvantage is the space of the restaurant is quite small, hard to find an inside slots in the evening. But anytime I come to Berlin, this restaurant is always one of my top choice. My favorite choices: - Vegetarian dumplings - Tomyum soup - Wantan soup - rice + fried Tofu with pepper sauce or with lemongrass sauce 🩵 - BBQ stew beef

2 of 3 guests were super happy with their dishes. One however wasn't as the crispy duck was only very partly crispy and the meat was simply not good. Also a bit much coriander in my opinion but I'm one of the soap people. Atmosphere was nice but the server was very short and I didn't feel "taken care of". However overall I would visit again and just order something different.

There are tons of restaurants in Berlin. But every time I'm in town I eat here because it tastes simple, it's affordable and the service is friendly. ☺️

Very friendly service, nice atmosphere, huge selection of dishes, quick food, very tasty - kimchi, curry with pumpkin, avocado coconut milk.

Very tasty food, unfortunately we often got the wrong dish due to the service staff's lack of German. Otherwise a nice place.

When we arrive at Ostkreuz train station, we always like to take a detour to Ben Thanh. Delicious Vietnamese cuisine at affordable prices. Also very suitable for vegetarians/vegans. Clear recommendation.

Random visit, and really good too. The plum sauce is outstanding!

Food & drinks were good but reasonably priced. On a pretty street. Somewhat random menu of Asian-fusion crusine (e.g. sushi, pho, dumplings).

It used to be delicious, but not anymore, the seaweed leaves on the sushi were dry and tough, the crispy duck...not crispy, but mushy and fatty, totally over-seasoned. Waiter saw our plates and didn't feel the need to ask what was wrong, he wasn't interested. No goodbye, nothing. We won't be coming back!

Crazy owner, refused to bring us a glass of water and almost kicked us out because he was closing. The food was good but it does not do everything. Learn how to treat people before opening a restaurant.

Delicious food and great prices. Highly recommend

A really nice restaurant with lunch menus that are quite affordable. Lot of options to choose from. Loved the pepper-soy tofu with rice!

Very good value for money. I had a Pad Thai with vegan duck. The dish was delicious, but the vegan duck was unfortunately too dry and fibrous. Would use tofu next time. My partner was very happy with his soup. The sushi beforehand was great, the long drinks were good - good prices and good service. We'll definitely be back because I want to try more of the menu. 😋

Good: - Food tastes good Bad: - Service! Really unfriendly. The waitress leaves in the middle of placing the order. - No card payment. Only possible from 20€. You are forced to consume more! A minimum amount is not legally permissible

Unfortunately it has worn off :-( it's a shame it's no longer good. Loveless! Red curry sauce: tastes like water. Salmon bowl: salmon is older. No longer recommended

So delicious 😋 I am glad we found this place, we will be coming more often 👌

Rice noodles are not bad! Quality is good

I begin the story of my experience at Ben Restaurant for the service. I give it 2 stars, largely due to the disinterest of the waiter, who served us, without the slightest empathy, showing a lack of interest in the customer, he believed he was doing us a favor by serving us. This terrible behavior took one star off my review. However, other factors led me to consider Ben Thanh as a good Vietnamese food restaurant. I am a fan of the diversity of their seasonings and sauces. Healthy food, with lots of greens and vegetables. Berlin has a range of these restaurants, as the Vietnamese community is representative in the city. The environment is well decorated with typical motifs from the country. When visiting the city of Berlin, I suggest visiting Ben Restaurant, and if they have better service than mine, good luck.

The worst service I have ever experience. If you are the boss of this restaurant, please reconsider about ur Young waiter n waitress. Rudest persons I have ever met. Absolutely disgusting service.

Tasty, fast, friendly and cozy. Sometimes it's just a little too loud.

Vietnamese sushi, need I say anything else

Beautiful ambience and great sushi at an absolute top price/performance ratio. The only thing that left something to be desired was the service. He was polite and nice but we didn't get to pay for ages, even though there was almost nothing going on... But would visit it again 👍

The food was really great, the service was a disaster. The waiter was very unfriendly and used a wrong tone. We have been told several times in the past that we should leave after 90 minutes. The chairs in the outdoor area were very uncomfortable, despite there being several free tables we were sent away.

Tempura sushi and pad thai were nice. The roast duck was good but the sauce was not nice. Abu tempura shrimp was good. I tasted Tiger beer here for the first time and it was light.

We ate here twice. Once at lunchtime for four (two adults & two children) and once in the evening (4 adults and 5 children). The food is really beautifully presented on the plate. Everything tastes really good, but interpreted in a very European way. The service was very quick at lunchtime, even though the store wasn't full. A few days later we went out to dinner again with friends, but in the evening when the restaurant was full. Here again, no trace of friendliness. When a child had the mishap of tipping over a glass, a stack of napkins was slammed onto the table without a word and we were done with the situation. The napkins weren't nearly enough and it was only at our request that a mop was brought in and the floor was mopped. The drink we ordered took 15 minutes to arrive and when we asked several times we were sometimes even ignored. Not exactly what you would expect from hospitality. The high rating is thanks to the skilled chef.

Great food and drinks. Mango lassi was first class and the large sushi platter was not only a pleasure for the eyes but also for our stomachs.

Sushi is good for Friedrichshain standards. Service great. Pad Thai is terrible and an insult to Thai cuisine.

We were there a few times. Food was very tasty and the service was friendly. Recently the quality of the food noticeably decreased. Today we were again disappointed with the sushi and the service was indifferent and in the end even unfriendly - despite the tip, for which we weren't even thanked. We weren't even said goodbye. We will no longer visit the restaurant.

As an ‘Asian cuisine lover’ I did not hesitate to give Ben Thanh a chance the first day of our Berlin stay. My wife shares the same food love….however, our kids are kinda special in regard to food. But….a capital BUT…they were big fans of it. They ate chicken saté, Rice with fried chicken and even tried the served sauces. The plates were as good as empty at the end. We left with full bellies and the kids were happy, too. Definitely a recommendation - either sitting outside or inside. The interior design looks great, the staff is friendly and the food came in less than 20 minutes.

Rude waiters. You are not greeted, you are not said goodbye, you are not thanked for a tip and we did not receive a receipt for card payment. The food was brought quickly and was delicious.

Great restaurant, very tasty food and nice staff! I can only recommend :)

Very authentic and delicious food. The price-performance ratio is extremely good. There are still some dishes to try, will definitely come back!

Very tasty food, fresh sushi and fair prices.

Unfortunately not so good anymore. Weird vibe from the staff and stomach ache from the food. No idea what's going on.

Very tasty dishes, including vegetarian versions, super fast service and good value for money - really great! ⭐

Smell of food is terrible , service bad

It was really good! Since I needed something to take away quickly, I was under time pressure. But that wasn't a problem at all, the food was ready and packed in no time, I caught my train and it was incredibly tasty! Gladly again! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

The restaurant makes you feel like you are in Vietnam. Authentic Vietnamese flavors, spices and herbs and service make this place unique. Large dishes for the very hungry, served quickly despite the room being full of guests. Prices below average in Berlin. When visiting Berlin it is worth visiting this place, I really recommend it.

Tip top. The meaning of Vietnam. Exceptional food. Super team. Nice atmosphere only to recommend! Thank you! thank you

Food great, service flop The food was excellent, beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Despite having reserved a table, we were unfortunately told that we could only sit there for two hours. We had planned to spend the whole evening there. We were also served quite unemotionally.

By chance, we ended up at Ben-Thanh on the last day of our trip to Berlin, freezing after visiting the Wall. We visited a Vietnamese restaurant for the first time. Special compliments to the Vietnamese waitress, she pointed out to me that my chosen dish was a vegetarian dish, which I immediately rejected. The waitress appears to have good people skills. The food we ordered was excellent, just right, the portions and even spicy enough for me. Therefore full marks, it couldn't be better. Next time we have to go there again. S-Bahn stop - Ostkreuz -

Super delicious food and great friendly environment

Thanks! I really enjoyed the food, the lassi and the location! The room is also very attractive.

We ended up here by chance. Rarely eaten so well! Very friendly service, good selection and really delicious food. We'll definitely come back. You should book a table. Was very well attended.

The food was tasty and very filling. It took a lot of time to get a seat even though we pre booked, but the food came almost immediately after ordering.

Super delicious, and really fair prices. And one of the best kimchi I ever had. I can really recommend this place.

We called at 7 PM spontaneously, hoping to get a table for seven people, it worked!!! Got one at 8:30 PM, and on the dot we were able to sit down. Food was soooooo delicious, it was the best meal our group had in Berlin. We had Pho (traditional vietnamese soup), the Obama dish (trust me it’s good), and had a few non alcoholic drinks, which were definitely worth ordering Get a few starters, get a food main dish, get a drink and you’ll land around at 20 Euros, which is VERY reasonable for such a location and such good food :) Would definitely come again

Super delicious food with very friendly service.

Very good food, fresh ingredients and good service.

Mega delicious, the two of us were lucky that there was still a table available, it's better to reserve. I would love to eat there again straight away

Very nice restaurant, food really tasty! Good portions, taking leftovers with you is no problem. The first waiter didn't really understand us, but that wasn't a problem because he then sent his colleague who spoke fluent German

Love it! One of the best dishes I've had in Berlin and the staff is very welcoming and welcoming

Service super polite. The food was very tasty and the price-performance ratio was really great.

We had a lovely evening. Sushi was fresh and delicious. Prices are also appropriate. Thank you and see you soon

Fantastic restaurant. Eating is an art. Very nicely prepared and super tasty. The service has always been great. Today we were extremely disappointed. We had booked a birthday table for 5 people by phone at 6 p.m. When we entered the restaurant with the birthday guests, we were informed that we had to leave the restaurant at 8 p.m. so that they could receive other guests. The evening was over for everyone. An absolute no-go!

If you want to eat here you have to reserve a table. It's always full. The food is super delicious 😋 and the service is super fast and friendly. Unfortunately a bit noisy due to the mass of people. But definitely recommended.!!

Tasty food, fairly priced. It was pretty busy when we arrived but we received freshly prepared food fast.

Really nice atmosphere and great food. Really quick and competent service. The missing star is because my salmon was overcooked and not rare.

Tolles Angebot mit richtig großer Speisekarte; auch zum Mittagstisch sehr zu empfehlen!

Gites Restaurant, zu empfehlen obwohl einiges für die Location wirklich überteuert ist aber man will und muss halt Geld verdienen. Die Speisekarte sehr umfangreich und auch die Getränke sind in der Auswahl wirklich gut. Wir besuchen das Restaurant schon länger, auch schon beim Vorgänger.

Das Sushi war lecker - Auswahl passt auch (neben Lachs und Tunfisch auch Butterfisch) 👍

Lecker Sushi. Freundlicher Service. Nettes Ambiente.

Absolutely delicious. Had Glass Noodles with Duck. 100% will order again when in Berlin.

Best Vietnamese place in Berlin no doubt

Sushi ist extrem wenig Reis und der Reis ist auch nicht wirklich durch. Ich hatte außerdem eine Sommerrolle, die verdorben geschmeckt hat. Der Kellner hat sie aber freundlichst zurückgenommen. Dafür die noch positive Bewertung für den Service..

Bei minus Graden, im außen- kein Grog, innen. ???

Excellentes Essen mit geschmacklich gut abgestimmten und interessanten Gewürzen.

Essen kam schnell, und war sehr lecker! Die Erdnussoße kann ich besonders empfehlen. Die Service war auch sehr nett.

Найкраще кафе в'єтнамської кухні. Привітливий персонал, гарна кузня. Швидко готують замовлення. Бажано замовляти столик за декілька днів, але і без бронювання теж знайдуть Вам місце

Leckeres Essen und freundlicher Service in gemütlicher Atmosphäre

Food was great, mini Bao were amazing. Quick service, very fresh ingredients, good portion size, fair price. We're definitely going back.

Fried Gyoza and Pai Gai are incredible delicious! Highly recommend!

Das Essen war okay aber ich fand die Leute hier ziemlich unfreundlich . Preise in Ordnung.

Wirklich lecker und für heutige Verhältnisse recht günstig

Super Auswahl an vietnamesischen Speisen, Sushi und internationalen Gerichten. Toller Service. Reservieren ist zu empfehlen. Keine Ahnung warum da nicht laufende Uhren hängen.

Preiswertes Lokal in dem für gutes Geld eine angemessene Menge serviert wird, vor allem im Mittagsangebot von 12-16 Uhr.

Sand im Salat. Sehr viel Sand. Bedienung unhöflich, als ich darauf hingewiesen habe. Verstand mich nicht, hat ihn aber auch nicht interessiert - nur ja gesagt und weggegangen. Das Essen war im Grunde sehr lecker. Schade!

Leckeres Vitnamesisches Essen, die Vegane Ente mit Reis und Erdnusssoße ist zu empfehlen. Das Essen war sehr schnell da, die Bedienung hat uns leider etwas gedrängt schnell zu bestellen/ fertig zu werden eine Stunde vor Schließung.

Kleiner Vietnamese. Super leckeres Essen. Sehr freundlicher Service. Allein die Tatsache das die Menschen im November draußen sitzen und warten spricht für sich. Echt TOP. Und die Cocktails sind lecker und günstig.

Wir kamen als Gruppe kurz vor Feierabend. Der Kellner hat uns reingelassen, doch leider war er sehr respektlos und aggressiv. Ich versteh wenn man nach 7-9 Stunden arbeitet, und nein sagt. Doch bedienen und respektlos sein und beim Essen parallel dazu kassieren wollen geht nicht!!!

Die Qualität und der Service sind eine Katastrophe geworden. Preise werden gefühlt ständig erhöht, nur die Qualität nimmt ab. Die Sushirollen fallen auseinander, immer weniger Fisch drin, nur Reis... Ingwer wurde vergessen

Sehr leckeres Essen und ein netter Service. Die Vorspeiseplatte ist auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert. Gerne wieder

Sehr gutes Essen nur der chinesische Kellner war sehr unhöflich

Sehr freundlicher Service,Laden scheint sehr gut zu laufen. Mega schöne Einrichtung. Qualität war echt eine 10/10, sowohl die Getränke als auch die Vorspeisenplatte waren mega frisch und einfach lecker. Das Huhn war richtig knusprig und die Erdnusssauce auf den Punkt. Wir waren nicht das letzte Mal hier,vielen Dank 😋

Tried pumpkin curry rice. It was too salty

Wir haben die blaue Karte gewählt und es war sehr interessant

Direkt am Ostkreuz gelegen, hat mich das vietnamesische Restaurant vor allem mit dem Service, dem Ambiente und den Preisen überzeugt. Trotz der hohen Auslastung war unser Kellner flott und freundlich. Die Einrichtung ist ansprechend und gemütlich. Das Essen war guter Standard, ohne herausragend zu sein (mein Lachs schmeckte z.B. etwas langweilig). Für die Qualität und Menge gehen die Preise völlig in Ordnung, so habe ich für 2 Vorspeisen, 2 alkoholfreie Cocktails (der erste von beiden war übrigens kleiner als 0,4l wie angegeben) und das Lachssteak insg. 35 € inkl. 10% Trinkgeld. Ich komme bestimmt wieder. (10/2023)

We ordered noodles (beef pho) and the one with peanut sauce. They were average.

Super lecker, wirklich besonders! Und sehr aufgeschlossenes, kontaktfreundliches Personal! Gerne wieder!

Das Restaurant hat uns mit seiner authentischen und schmackhaften Küche begeistert. Die vielfältige Speisekarte bietet eine breite Auswahl an Gerichten, die den Geschmack Vietnams perfekt einfangen. Von frischen Frühlingsrollen bis zu köstlichen Pho-Suppen, hier findet man alles, was das Herz begehrt. Die Zutaten sind frisch und die Zubereitung ist hervorragend. Das freundliche Personal und die angenehme Atmosphäre runden das Gesamterlebnis ab. Wir kommen definitiv wieder!

Sehr leckeres Essen/Cocktails, hübsch angerichtet, nette Bedienung und schönes Ambiente. Und dazu auch noch sehr preiswert! Leider haben wir das Restaurant auf unserem Städtetrip erst am letzten Abend entdeckt, sonst wären wir wieder gekommen!

Das Ben Thanh bietet eine authentische vietnamesische Erfahrung in Berlin. Die Speisen sind lecker und frisch, der Service ist freundlich. Auch die Cocktails sind sehr empfehlenswert und alles ist preislich vollkommen fair. Die Atmosphäre ist gemütlich, perfekt für eine entspannte Mahlzeit. Absolut empfehlenswert für Liebhaber der vietnamesischen Küche!

Kürbis Curry , Sushi, und pho no die Besten die man in Friedrichshain findet, dazu super nice das.Personal. mega 👍

After more than 10 times in this restaurant, it surprisingly gets better every time!! The staff are really nice, the food is delicious and there are many options to choose from, super comfortable location at the best price. Really recommended!!

Das beste Sushi in der Umgebung!! Tolles Essen (mehr als 0815 Sushi, und alle anderen Gerichte sind auch sehr lecker und werden auch sehr schön angerichtet), freundlicher Service und ein schönes Ambiente. Ich gehe regelmäßig dorthin und werde es auch weiter tun! 😊 Nur Vorsicht, nebenan ist noch ein anderes Sushi-Restaurant. Nicht verwechseln, denn das andere kann mit Ben Thanh nicht mithalten.

Food is fine, a little pricey but you will get full for around 20 euros with a drink. Had a lovely dinner with a friend, the location is good as it’s opposite the Sbahn station. Summer dinner outside is ideal, as the air is fresh and you can have street view. Recommend to reserve a table in advance. However, when it’s getting crowded, there aren’t many available tables.

Super keckeres essen zu einem tollen Preis!

Super lecker und sehr authentisch
