China Box in Berlin - Telefonnummer, Reservierungen, Bewertungen

I used to like this place and always bring people over...Not Sure what has happened at Wok show butt the food is just ok, nothing special... the service is far from nice and on the slow side... But why It's so overpriced? Except the dumplings which is correct sized...all the dishes are extremely small for the prices you pay.

The dumplings are juicy! We had the beef and carrot dumplings. It was great. The crispy duck with veggies was also great. Service was slightly slow. But the food was great!

The biggest criticism is the bad service. On one level, there isn't a great deal of common courtesy, but even more frustrating is the ridiculous wait time and lack of any system. Not only were we waiting for a very long time before we had to actively ask for just menus, we waited for literally over an hour and half for our dumplings (no exaggeration) to arrive which is completely unacceptable (especially since they're obviously frozen and only take minutes to ready). We politely asked twice while waiting what the problem was, and the issue was strongly downplayed (with lies) and we were just told that it would come soon each time, which it did not. There was zero effort made by the staff to keep us updated or explain the situation unless we actively called them over. Additionally, there was no goodwill gesture ever offered by the staff - no complementary drink or starter for the wait, or discount on the bill, which is definitely a reasonable expectation after waiting over 90 minutes. What's-more is that many people who came to the restaurant much after us, got their orders well before us, which was naturally highly frustrating and demonstrates bad organisation. The food itself was nothing special, it wasn't as good as I had been told to be honest, and it was definitely overpriced for what it was, but the whole experience was primarily ruined by such a terrible wait time and no real consideration from the staff for such. FYIs: Cash only, very limited vegetarian menu.

We had fried dumplings, which were tasty, but unfortunately not beautifully presented. Service was always a long time coming!

Delicious food, very authentic, friendly service.

No, not excellent ravioli, one with a bad taste. Truly reviewable wanton soup. Not cold beer. But then: what's the problem with water in Berlin? In the bottle it costs three and a half euros for 25 cl. If you ask for the one from the tap they will bring you a glass of warm water.

Food was quite good, not great but still tasty. Service was a bit unfriendly and also served us the wrong drinks. 15/20 dumplings per person are definitely enough

Very tasty dumplings. We can really recommend it!

Pretty good vegetarian and vegan dumplings at very fair prices

Clear recommendation, I don't really know much about Chinese cuisine, but I had a great meal here and had a very tasty meal

Friendly staff, the food came very quickly. The dumplings are very tasty and juicy. We will definitely eat this again. Despite it being a Monday evening, we managed to find a parking space.

We visited the restaurant based on a recommendation and chose fried and boiled dumplings. The food came quite quickly, but seemed like just thawed goods that you can also get in the Asian market. We weren't impressed with the taste. The service was nice and courteous.

Great food but they need to serve real Coke instead of that sweetened no-gas liquid. maybe you should start using 330ml bottles instead!

Rather unfriendly or reserved. Food is ok.

The authentic, delicious food they offer is unfortunately shadowed by their poor service. They are generally fast and attentive, but we experienced something unacceptable twice in a row. We ordered the crispy duck and warned them about our peanut allergy. They said it wasn't an issue. Ten minutes later we got served a dish with peanuts. After raising the issue, they said they'd make us a new one since the nuts were already all over the food. Surprisingly, they removed the peanuts from the dish and reheated it in the microwave, giving a soggy texture to an otherwise delicious duck. This caused an allergic reaction as well, since the peanuts had already been in there. 4 months later we decided to give the restaurant a second chance and ordered the exact same duck, this time warning them 4 times about the allergy. Can you guess what ended up happening? We got served peanuts, we complained, they took them away and proceed to reheat the dish in the microwave As a customer, you feel insulted by this behaviour. Not only is it a health hazard, it's also very disrespectful to be served the same dish twice after failing to take an allergy warning correctly. If you have no allergies, this might be a great place. But if you do, make sure to have your insurance card ready since you might end up at the hospital.

Here we find very good Chinese dumplings.

Authentic and super tasty dumplings!!! Very good quality-price ratio. Maybe the service could be a little quicker, but maybe that was just that day. Gladly again!

Do you wanna eat cheap and while you have tasty food? This is it! Cheap and delish! One of my favourite spots of Berlin. I come here once a month to enjoy their amazing rice and dumplings. The service is fast and nice. I recommend the pork ones and the lamb!

Best and cheapest dumplings in Berlin!! They were sooo delicious and the personal was very friendly and we didn't wait long to be served 💘

Asian-style dumplings are very nice. Cash only.

I like the restaurant in general; however, the food quality is inconsistent. There are good dumpling days and bad dumpling days

Northern Chinese style dumplings served in 2 ways - boiled or pan-fried. One time they forgot our orders but were helpful and nice to us. The place is a hotspot in the neighborhood so it can be quite noisy and crowded especially on the weekends.

I was here because I wanted to eat Chinese Jiaozi again without having to go to Nuts or even have to pick up a wooden spoon myself. The restaurant was full, but I still managed to get a seat. There were different types of jiaozi and I couldn't really decide which one to take. In the end I took the 20 portion, which was a bit too small for my hunger. The Jiaozi are rather small by Chinese and private standards, but are ok in size for restaurant standards. But the most important thing is that the jiaozis have to taste good, and that's what you have here for me. Unfortunately I don't live in Berlin, but I will definitely come back here to eat Jiaozi. Next time I'll take the larger portion. Alternatively, you can also take the jiaozi uncooked, which has the advantage that you can easily prepare it yourself at home. They also have the usual restaurant fare here, but I only came here for Jiaozi. The decor is simple and decorated in classic Chinese restaurant style in reddish brown colors. To me it seems like a design transition from the classic German Chin restaurant to the modernized, simple gastro design of Asian restaurants. In terms of feeling, it's more for people who like street food and feel comfortable where there is an international crowd and young people. Due to its success, it is not really suitable for a relaxed family gathering. Which didn't bother me personally.

Can recommend this restaurant if you like Chinese food. Have a lot of choice on the menu. Food doesn't look special at first glance, but surprisingly it tastes really good. I just think it's a shame that you can always order 15-20 dumblings.

Really delicious and homemade dumplings are served here. You can choose between 20 pieces and 40 pieces per variety. You also have the choice whether you want them cooked or fried. The dumplings taste very good but are unfortunately served a bit carelessly. Personally, I would add some coriander on top or serve it with it. There is a chili paste on the table, as well as vinegar and soy sauce. There are also delicious starters, the potato salad is really tasty... It's just completely different and really good. Definitely try it. The service is quick and friendly. In terms of price, it's completely okay...20 pieces cost around 15 euros People like to take cash here, but it is also possible to use a card.

Many years later, still the best dumplings around!

Good food with an authentic focus. You're welcome to do it.

I have been several times to this place but I am not convinced about going back. The food is average, but the ambiete is not very cozy and especially disappointing is, that twice in our last visits we got the wrong bill and were supposed to pay more than we consumed.

The Soups are very delicious and the beef carrot dumplings also.

Authentic Chinese food. Gladly again!!!

Dumplings are amazingly cheap and good. But the service is the poorest in Berlin. It was written that we can pay with debit card (EC-Karte in German) only up to 25€. Our bill was 43€ and when I went to pay, they refuse to accept my debit card because wasn't German (but from Spain). I refuse to pay until: or they accept my Spanish debit card or they call the police to solve the situation (as nowhere was written that I had to pay with a German debit card). They didn't call them (of course) and after 30 minutes they accepted my debit card. Anyway, wrong service for one of the best Asian food in Berlin.

Nice appetizers like the 凉拌猪耳。fried dumplings deal also good 😺

Solid dumplings place. Good variety. Would also recommend the Appetizers (cucumber salad and potato salad)

Authentic cuisine! Really delicious 😋

Authentic dumplings, yummy food, great casual atmosphere

Prices too high for the food ordered: a simple dish with tofu, vegetables (mostly onion) and a little rice = €16. Furthermore, even though we were talking nicely, they made us pay and leave at 10pm on a Saturday night...

Simple and brilliantly delicious dumplings.

A very large selection of delicious and fresh dumblings. There are also various Chinese appetizers that are worth trying. I've eaten here a few times now and it's always been super fresh and delicious. Clear recommendation.

And this is supposed to be “dumpling heaven”? No, thank you very much, I don't have to go through this restaurant again, which is pretty much below average in pretty much all respects. Okay, except for the prices, which are pretty steep! I tried out the menu with my family and am now anything but happy and satisfied and can only strongly advise everyone not to come here. The dim sum was an insult both in terms of taste and appearance and was disastrously prepared, simply dumped on the plate like at school lunch. The oh-so-great grilled eggplant was - oh wonder - not grilled at all and not even tasty, and the chicken and duck were the run-of-the-mill standard stuff, tossed in a slightly oily sauce with raw onions and peppers. Just ridiculous and very, very cheeky to put something like that in front of guests and charge so much money for it. The service tried hard, but was still almost incapable of acting. We had to wait forever for the food and then everything still came with a delay, which was really annoying. The ambience was a bit greasy to gloomy and vinegar and sauces on the tables were unclean and unfortunately the same cheap stuff. My conclusion: Never again!

For when you want a mountain of food.

Best dumplings place in Berlin. Cheap but tasty. You get 20 dumplings for ~15€.

As always, the food was very tasty. Traditional Chinese cuisine is served here. Highly Recommended.

Very yummy nice people working there

I've been coming here since 2006, from their move from Mitte to Prenzlberg--its my ace card. The SERVICE IS BAD, which I can say, because I've literally brought hundreds* if customers here, but I'm only going back because the quality of the cooking is great and nothin else . They've raised their prices, but only to normal pricing because they've been charging too less for ages. The jiaozi and artwork is concocted by the patriarch of Wok Show, equally made with depth and character.

I love this store. Be sure to try the fried and steamed dumplings. Do you have to try the cucumber salad too?

Really delicious dumplings and mapo tofu ♥️

familiäre Bedienung, komme wieder!

Some of the best dumplings you can find in Berlin. Everything is tasty. But they only take cash and and EC cards and that's it.

Great dumplings for good prices but don’t expect much service. Had to wait for almost 30mins for drinks to arrive and had to wait for a hour to get our food - it wasn’t very busy either.

The dumplings here are always delicious and for quite a good price. I also recommend the cucumber salad. But the dumplings are where it’s at!

By far the best dumplings in Berlin - especially the pork, prawn and chives. Great value for money.

真难吃！ 皮厚！饺子馅又硬又干！死咸死咸！非常不新鲜！饺子那么咸，想让客人多消费酒水，顾此失彼！ 这个女服务员 不但不能接受客观的评价 还要造谣诽谤 无中生有 你被客观差评后 心情恶劣 还把这种恶劣情绪转移到评价上来 进而造谣诽谤 脸皮太厚 难怪这个店收获了那么多差评 真是活该 奉劝你 还是进修一下服务员的道德规范 想要好评 也得用服务质量和菜品质量来争取 瞧你这点素质 看看你们那饺子还破皮的都端上来 知道什么叫卖相么？ 你自己眼睛直勾勾盯着顾客 莫名其妙 还态度恶劣质问 有什么事情 我了个去 没见过这种服务员 进饭店吃饭 还被问 有什么事情 你们是不是得罪人多了 看谁都像找事的 柏林真是林子大了 什么垃圾鸟都有 单凭你这种毫无根据的造谣诽谤 给你一分差评 都是抬举你了 你还得自己给你自己留点脸面 警告你 这个评价会一直保留 你如果用下三滥手段移除 会再次评价 除非你们关店倒闭！

Very tasty food, nice and fast service and a good price.

I was really looking forward to eating here since I saw videos online. I prepared days before and checked their website and Google page which has no indication that you had to make a reservation. When I arrived, I asked for a table for 2, the lady already seemed dismissive to me and asked if I had a reservation and when I said no, she pretended to check the book but didn’t and told me there was no table and walked away. The restaurant was literally empty! And when I tried to ask if there was anything that could be done since the place looked quite empty, she began to yell at the Second Lady who was more polite to me and was trying to help. I can bet this stemmed from racism but whatever. Also, the ambiance was nothing to write home about. For the hype, I expected more.

Food was great. Staff was friendly. Crowded on Friday night. We had to wait a bit but was worth it.

This place has been around for years but is so consistent. Food is always great and the prices are fair

Sehr lecker uns das Personal ist freundlich

Very good value for the price paid. You can get 40 dumplings for around 25 eur. Fried rice for 7 eur. Everything tasted good. My favorites were fried eggplants, dumplings and Sichuan chicken. Do reserve a table before coming. Otherwise you would need to wait in line. For 4 people it took around 1h of waiting time before getting a table. Time between ordering and serving is relatively fast.

Super lecker, faire Preise und nettes Personal

very good dumplings and Chinese authentic food

The dumplings here were amazing, my favorite were the beef and carrot. We also really enjoyed the fried rice. The space itself isn’t anything special but the service while we were there was fine. Cash only.

Among the top rudest service in Berlin. They’ll make you feel terrible.

Best dumplings in Berlin. My favourite are the lamb (#8) and pork+shrimps(#1). Shanghai noodles are very tasty as well! Go here at least twice month.

Zuerst das positive: die jiaozi sind sehr lecker und schmecken wirklich wie von Oma handgemacht. Dazu sind die Portionen sehr groß und preislich wirklich super. Wir hatten noch das Mapo Tofu und das gongbau Hühnchen, das hat leider wie beim schnellasiaten/Imbiss geschmeckt. Der Service war gut, allerdings ist das Ambiente super veraltet und die Stühle hatten auch schon bessere Zeiten. Ich würde eher empfehlen die Jiaozi gefroren zu kaufen und sie gemütlich zuhause warm zu machen.

Wir hatten die vegetarischen Dumplings und gegrillte Aubergine. Beide Gerichte schmeckten gut. Der Service war so lala von der Attitüde her & wollte dem Gegentisch nicht mal einen Tee empfehlen (?). Danach wurden uns auch noch die falschen Dumplings mit Fleisch gebracht Zum Ambiente: Im Restaurant spielt keine Musik und es war sehr kalt. Wir bekamen einen Tisch gleich beim Eingang. Hinten gab es viele Tische frei, die andere ohne Reservierung nach uns bekamen. Wir würden hier nur noch für Takeaway wiederkommen.

The restaurant is well-known for its delicious jiaozi. But sometimes, the service is lacking, and the ambiance is just okay.

三鲜水饺的馅料非常咸，并且看不到虾仁，说是把虾仁打碎了。菜品非常不正宗，而且价格太贵。

Wir haben angerufen und bestellt, wurden dabei gebeten alles in Bargeld mitzunehmen. Gesagt getan. Wir hatten es extra abgezählt und ihnen in Kleingeld gegeben. Dann wurde uns vorgeworfen, dass wir unhöflich seien und sie kein Supermarkt sind und so viel Kleingeld nicht haben wollen. Es war nir ein bisschen Kleingeld, nichts was man nicht annehmen könnte. Nach einigem diskutieren wurde es dann angenommen. Allerdings wurde sich nicht entschuldigt, sondern so getan als ob das eine Frechheit sei mit etwas Kleingeld zu bezahlen. Auch wenn das Essen schmeckt, hat uns das unsere Laune verdorben, sodass wir dieses Restaurant nicht mehr besuchen.

Sehr kleine Karte, aber die Dumplings sind wirklich großartig!

Huge servings and authentic. Sometimes would like more variety in flavour

It’s yummy, but they don’t take credit card :( take cash with you

Der Laden, von außen eher unscheinbar, ist sehr authentisch. Das Essen ist gut bis sehr gut. Der Service ist - na ja. Bekannt ist der Laden für seine gefüllten Jiaozi, die es gekocht bzw. gedämpft und gebraten gibt. Ich persönlich finde die gebratene Version schmackhafter. Es gibt kalte Getränke und man muss nicht allzu lange warten. Die Vorspeisen sind auch sehr zu empfehlen. Wenn man Knoblauch mag, ist dies bei einigen Gerichten absolut von Vorteil. Alles in Allem lohnt sich ein Besuch.

Nicht schön, aber leckeres und authentisches Essen.

素三鲜和猪肉白菜都很好吃，饺子料很足，一份饺子20个或者40个，很正宗的北方饺子

Dumplings were good but maybe service could improve.

My new favorite restaurant, LOVE IT

Leckere Dumplings! Gurke mit Knoblauch ist der Hit!

Sehr gute Qualität zu angemessenen Preisen. Das Personal ist freundlich, die Toiletten sind sauber. Kurzum: der beste Ort für Teigtaschen in Prenzlauer Berg.

Wir kamen am Samstagabend um 8 Uhr an, die Beilagen wurden um 8:05 Uhr serviert und die Dumplings wurden um 8:48 Uhr serviert. Die beiden Tische, die nach uns kamen, servierten das Essen vor uns, und wir aßen auch Stahlkugeln in den Kartoffelschnitzeln, die Serviceeinstellung war sehr schlecht!

Best Chinese dumplings in town!

Magical experience with the beef and carrot boiled dumplings and veggie fried!

i I don’t know why google flags this review?! don’t ask me if this is authentic, cuz i dunno, but fo schnitzel this is tasty!!! i wanna eat all of their 🥟 and drink all their beer and come back the next day.

Fantastische Dumplings! Sowohl gekocht als auch gebraten ein absoluter Genuss - sehr zu empfehlen. Nicht so gut haben mir die Vorspeise mit den Gurken und vor allem das Hühnchen geschmeckt. Preise sind moderat. Atmosphärisch drinnen wie draußen nett.

Super Laden Ramen war spitze sehr Geschmacksintensiv

Best dumplings. That's all you need to know

Used to go to this restaurant frequently when I lived nearby but I hadn’t been in almost one year. Visited again in July 2023 and the service was incredibly slow - I had completely finished eating my main before my partner’s turned up. For anything that isn’t dumplings the portions are small and expensive, and the beer was badly poured - at best half full.

Ich hatte hier Dumplings mit Lamm gefüllt, die waren vorzüglich und dazu einen Jasmintee, lose, in einer Kanne serviert, angenehm mild und blumig.

Best dumplings in Berlin! The food is awesome, very tasty and I can highly recommend the garlic cucumbers and the kimchi as a side dish! Although, I have to admit, the service is not always the best, but you get a great amount of food with a super delicious vinegar/soy sauce for dipping. Highly recommend the restaurant!!!

Reasonably fast service, extremely good prices and inviting staff. The dumplings are tasty but we were let down by the quality of the soy sauce, as it was too vinegary.

this is a fantastic, low key place with very tasty dumplings. The service was friendly and welcoming

Wok Show is one of our favorite places in Berlin located in a more residential area of Prenzlauer Berg. It has a young, international student clientele. The food seems to be pretty authentic, using fresh ingredients. Nice place with a reasonable pricing.

Garlic & cucumber is amazing. Pork & chive dumplings are good too.

Das essen war lecker, es gibt in die Hauptsache hier aber nur gefüllte Teigtaschen und wenig was man beim Chinesen erwarten würde. Diese waren aber sehr lecker und Preislich vollkommen in Ordnung.

Sehr leckeres Essen! Einziger Wermutstropfen, die Portionsgröße ist so groß, dass man pro Person eigentlich nur eine Sorte Dumplings bestellen kann und so zu zweit die Auswahl klein bleibt. Da müssen wir wohl noch einmal wiederkommen!

Good dumplings. Sat outside, easy place to find and good real options on the menu.

Terrible service, also me and my girlfriend both got bad stomach after eating here. Either the meat, oil or msg they use was terrible quality. Would stay away from this place at all costs.

absolute best dumplings in berlin!

Als originaler Nordchinese kann ich die Qualität der Jiaozi/des Essens zurecht beurteilen. Sie ist leider schlechter geworden. Und die Bedienung ist sehr unfreundlich, sodass man das Gefühl bekam, du bist selber Schuld, dass du hier bist. Ich werde nie wieder hingehen.

Beste Dumblings in Berlin. Sehr gute Miso und Wantansuppe. Schmeckt alles sehr lecker! Absolute Empfehlung👌🏽

만두 퀄리티만 논한다면 아쉬움이 있지만 그래도 만족감은 좋다. 마파두부랑 가지요리도 맛은 있는데 심각하게 짜고 조미료맛이 대놓고 강하다. 차랑 같이 먹으면 그나마.
