Lemongrass in Dortmund

The food was great . I will come back . All was perfect. We are in love with this place

We ended up here on a whim – best decision in ages! The welcome was friendly, no drama despite the place being packed and us not having a reservation. The waitress was incredibly nice, explained everything, and even gave us some food recommendations (and yes, she was right). The male staff were also great – not a single annoyed face in sight. Food: fantastic! Delicious, plentiful, and very reasonably priced. The place is cozy, inviting, and the kind of place that makes you want to come back – willingly, not by accident. ;)

The food was delicious! The service was super friendly. We'd love to come back!

Great, attentive service, delicious food, and very reasonable prices. We'd gladly return. Reservations recommended on weekends.

I love it here! Everything is so fresh and delicious, the staff is so friendly, they answer all your questions about the food and even make recommendations 😊 The people here are really nice! When it's busy, it can get really busy and loud - you have to like that 😉 I always enjoy coming here!

Best Vietnam kitchen in Dortmund! Taste good to Korean as well!

Very tasty Vietnamese food, good selection of drinks

The noodle soup here is truly delicious! Freshly prepared and full of flavor—highly recommended.

First and foremost, I have to highlight the fantastic service. Such lovely people, we'll definitely be back for that alone. The restaurant is also child-friendly. Upon request, strollers can be accommodated, and a highchair is available if needed. A changing table is also available. The quality of the food is simply superb. Everything we've tried so far has been truly delicious, and the roll-your-own dishes are especially fun. There's also a lovely selection of (loose) teas to complement the food. All we can say is: Thank you for this wonderful evening at Lemongrass :)

Was very tasty, would recommend 👍

A very good Vietnamese restaurant, especially very authentic. They serve delicious Vietnamese dishes that you won't find anywhere else. We almost always get the rice noodle bowl with the homemade spring rolls. Simply delicious!

Something different in Dortmund. The food and service are highly recommended.

⸻ The Lemongrass… We had the pleasure of dining at the Lemongrass Restaurant, and it was simply fantastic! As soon as you enter the restaurant, you're greeted by a cozy atmosphere – a perfect place for a relaxed meal… The staff was incredibly friendly and professional. (We were really impressed by how friendly everyone is.) The service was quick and attentive without being intrusive. You immediately feel welcome. The food was an absolute highlight! The summer rolls in particular are truly amazing; our main courses are addictive and won us over. The flavors are intense and well-balanced, and you can tell that fresh ingredients are used. Definitely a treat for lovers of Asian cuisine! The selection of dishes is fantastic, and the homemade iced tea perfectly rounds off the experience. I highly recommend the Lemongrass Restaurant – a culinary delight that leaves nothing to be desired. We will definitely be back.

The food was fantastic; I ordered from the lunch menu. The portion was perfectly generous and so delicious.

Very sweet and helpful waitresses, super delicious and authentic food, and an extremely cozy atmosphere! ❤️

The food was super delicious. Service was a bit lackluster toward the end. Unfortunately, the ambiance isn't that great. I was expecting something more elegant...

The food was delicious, and you get more than enough. They also have delicious fresh lime grass tea.

By far the best Vietnamese restaurant! Super friendly staff, the food is divine. If you've never eaten at a Vietnamese restaurant before, you should definitely try it! The parking situation is a bit of a problem, but otherwise, it's a solid A!

Almost too good to be true. At Lemongrass, you'll not only find excellent service with attentive and friendly staff, but the ambiance is inviting and tasteful. The food is excellent and delicately prepared, with an exotic, balanced flavor.

Very nice food and super friendly staff; you immediately feel welcome! 🫶🏻

Great staff, incredibly delicious food. Always worth a visit!!!🥰

I enjoy eating out and cooking from scratch. Unfortunately, this often makes many restaurants unimpressive. It's different here. It was truly delicious and not boring at all! So, 5/5, or as they say in Germany: "can't complain."

We had reserved a table in advance, so we didn't have to wait. Friendly and quick service, fresh and delicious food. Ideal for lunch.

Simply amazing, the food is amazing, I'd buy it every day, and the service is top-notch! Highly recommended. 10/10🤝🏻

Great service and delicious food

We were absolutely thrilled! Lemongrass was recommended to us, and we were very pleasantly surprised. The team at Lemongrass is very friendly, polite, and considers personal requests, such as not using certain herbs in their dishes! They use fresh ingredients and produce, so the flavors are fresh and simply delicious. The ambiance is cozy and well-chosen. You can sit inside or outside. The location is good and offers the opportunity to take a short walk into Dortmund's city center. The parking situation is challenging, but manageable. We would be happy to return and recommend Lemongrass!

Very tasty food & friendly service, the only drawback is the main street if you like sitting outside.

Everything there tastes good, the service is always very friendly, and I definitely recommend it.

Very tasty, authentic Vietnamese food. The staff was very friendly.

I was drawn to "Lemongrass" through reviews and pictures. For my starter, I chose a small soup, "Pho Tai," of course. A hearty, hearty soup with plenty of flavor. Considering the definition of "small," I found the portion to be quite large. Very tasty, an excellent choice, and I highly recommend anyone who hasn't tried this soup yet to give it a try. Excellent value for money! My main course consisted of a curry, the "Cari Ga Chien." The curry itself was super tasty, slightly spicy, not too thick, the vegetable side dish was cleverly chosen, and the side dish of crispy breaded chicken was a real treat. The dish itself was also a reasonable size, which is why the value for money is also excellent here! The service was very friendly and accommodating, and the ambiance, while unassuming from the outside, was welcoming once inside. From the outside, the restaurant looks smaller than it actually is, as the space bends to the right, almost L-shaped. Overall, a very positive visit to the restaurant; I can recommend everyone to try this cuisine if they haven't already or are hesitant.

The food is simply delicious, fresh, and prepared to perfection. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. We'd love to come back!

Young and friendly team, good food, clean restaurant. We'd love to come back.

Authentic and truly delicious Vietnamese food. Friendly staff. Definitely recommend it 👍🏻👍🏻

The food was delicious, authentic Vietnamese. A limited but well-stocked selection was available. It tasted refined and fresh. It was busy, so there were some waits for service. The ambiance is a matter of taste; I preferred sitting outside. The tables are a bit cramped for several dishes.

Great food, generous portions, friendly and attentive service, and short wait times. Everything is just right here!

Friendly staff, good food, reasonable prices, and a great central location! We'd be happy to come back!

Since the change of ownership and chef, the quality of the food has been abysmal. Instead of boiling bones for the once excellent broth, hot water or a spoonful of Knorr sauce now suffices. Instead of finely chopping vegetables, large, coarse pieces are now carelessly prepared, etc.

If, like me, you want to eat something different, you'll love Lemongrass. The food is so delicious. Even without that nasty coriander. ;) I especially noticed that I wasn't as overfull as usual (i.e., elsewhere). And I still finished the whole bowl! It was a really good portion. Parking nearby and the staff are really friendly. Thank you, I'll be back. 💚

I went there for the second time and was once again impressed. The food was very fresh and absolutely delicious. The service was very friendly. Thumbs up!

Very friendly service, perfect value for money, very good food, large portions. Our first stop when we're in Dortmund.

Super friendly staff and phenomenal tofu!

The most delicious meal we've had in a long time. Simply stunning, top-notch. We're still dreaming about the mango, papaya, and avocado salad!

Very tasty food and very friendly service. The location is a bit tricky, as is parking, but it's definitely worth a visit.

The prices aren't the cheapest, but the portions are extremely generous – although I personally would have preferred more rice, but you can certainly ask for more. Our food arrived very quickly and was delicious. Highly recommended!

Been there 6 times and everything was TOP

The staff was very attentive, even gave us extra fermented fish sauce. However, I think the restaurant could improve greatly if they increased the quality of their preparations. It has great potential.

Very well eaten, friendly service, nice and central location. Authentic Vietnamese cuisine, highly recommended

My dad first time trying the PHO and he love the soup also very nice service Excellent

Super tasty, very fair price and super nice service. Simply great

The food was simply fantastic! The service gets 10 out of 10 from me – super friendly and attentive. As a little extra, there were even sweet Easter eggs given away. Really great shop!

Very nice staff. The food was wonderful and juicy, just as you would imagine. The atmosphere was very clean and we got a table straight away. Extremely friendly and always smiling. I was very, very satisfied. It's good to have such nice people and such service in such bad times. I can only recommend lemongrass

Wir sind mit Bedienung und Essen sehr zufrieden! Verschiedene Gerichte haben wir schon ausprobiert- alle sind top. Danke! Empfehlenswert!

Three of us were there on Saturday at 6 p.m. Without reservation. We were asked to come back at 7 p.m. with a table reservation. Very popular restaurant. Absolutely recommended. If a table became available, it was immediately occupied again, so reservations are recommended

There is a good, cheap card here. The food is of good quality and served quickly. An ideal stay if you work in DO and want to take a lunch break with colleagues and guests.

Very friendly staff, very fresh and tasty food, fair prices

The food - in my case a pho - is good, but I would go to Nhy Star again in the future. The food there is even better and cheaper. The service was average and the ambience was fine.

The rice noodle salad with tofu was super delicious! Service was very friendly and the portions were really big! Overall, an absolute recommendation!!

The food is delicious and the staff is very polite. The restaurant has a very nice atmosphere.

Very, highly recommended! Exceptional recipes, delicious dishes and a great atmosphere.

Delicious things, attentive service. We'll definitely be back

Yes, definitely recommended, you just have to tolerate the volume...

Great food and super lovely staff!

Excellent taste with big portions and super friendly service

As always, a lovely evening and the food is to die for. Real Vietnamese cuisine of a high quality. We have been coming here for years and can only recommend the restaurant! Be sure to reserve, otherwise it is difficult to get a table here.

Wir waren zu dritt am Freitag Abend verabredet. Das Restaurant war voll . Der Service war bezaubernd. Das Essen war toll. Der Mangosalat und die knusprige Ente waren sensationell. Wir kommen schnell wieder und werden zum Wiederholungstäter.

Yesterday we spontaneously had dinner there with four people and we didn't regret it. Super nice service staff and delicious food. We were super satisfied

Looks really cute, but for the price and 4.7 stars I expected better food.

Very tasty Vietnamese food, the service was very good, the food anyway, the portions are almost too big.😉 so you should come really hungry.😊 We were very satisfied and it definitely won't be our last visit. Absolute recommendation from me.

An absolute insider tip! The food at Lemongras was top notch - every dish tasted outstanding. Particularly noteworthy is the dish Vit Quay – the best duck I have ever eaten! The service was extremely friendly, courteous and always attentive. The ambience is modern and stylish, the volume is pleasant, so you can have a good conversation. The price-performance ratio is also convincing: very high-quality products are used, and it shows. Overall, an all-round great experience – I can fully recommend Lemongrass and would be happy to come back!

The food (mango curry and rice noodle pan) were really tasty and the price was great too. The plantain for dessert was also very tasty. Therefore, absolute recommendation 👌🏽

Best Duck in Germany I feel like one should not die without trying it. The service is an example of Hospitality that shatters all Paradigmas in Deutschalnd. Probably the best Vientnamese Restaurant outside Vietnam.

Very good food.Phö 17 euros too expensive.

Very authentic food... And friendly staff... Top

Rund um ein schöner Abend in diesem bereits seit langen Jahren existierenden Restaurant. Aufmerksamer und freundlicher Service mit zuvorkommender und anschaulicher Erläuterung zum Rollen von Sommerrollen ( Gericht zum Selbstrollen). Äußerst lecker und zudem mit einem prima Preis-Leistungsverhältnis! Danke für Den schönen Abend!

Good service. Very loud crowd today. Main course too expensive for a fried duck with some rice and vegetables. I wonder if this is Vietnamese?

Very tasty food, great quality and nice service

Top. Delicious meal with very friendly staff

Delicious food and very friendly service. We like coming here.

A very authentic Vietnamese restaurant. Very tasty summer rolls with shrimp, a pho that was very tasty and a crispy duck on a bed of vegetables. Good portions and attentive staff. You have to get excited here.

Very friendly staff. They were full when we arrived but they still made sure we could sit by bringing in a table from outside. We chose the spring rolls with shrimps as a snack and the tofu with mango curry as a main course. Both very tasty and recommended! It's worth a stop if you visit Dortmund. 🙂

Were there on New Year's Eve and received a very friendly welcome. Had three different meals with starters and it was all fantastic. Found a new favorite place ♥️ Thank you very much. The drinks are simply awesome🫶

Delicious, authentic, local, pleasant staff! Highly recommended!

Nice Vietnamese restaurant. Very tasty, interesting and good value for money

Everything about the food was great! The service was super super friendly and just a lovely person <3

We were there for lunch today, December 12th, 2024. We were welcomed very nicely by a young lady. Since we were there at lunchtime, we chose the M6 ​​(duck with curry and rice) and the M7 (rice noodles with spring rolls). Aside from the fact that the service was great, the food was beautifully presented and delicious. For €10.50 & €11.90 you can't complain at all. Gladly again!🩷

Der Besuch hat sich sowas von gelohnt, sodass wir sogar zweimal gekommen sind 👍🏼 Das Personal war so sympathisch und liebevoll, sind auf die Extrawünsche eingegangen 😊 Wir hatten zu zweit jeweils eine Vorspeise, einen Hauptgang und ein Dessert. Alles wurde frisch und schnell zubereitet, alles war super lecker. Eine sehr authentische vietnamesische Küche. Lemongrass war in der Nähe vom Weihnachtsmarkt, was total praktisch war, man konnte sich auf einen heißen Tee dort aufwärmen. Sehr zu empfehlen 👍🏼

Trotz eines Freitag Abends haben wir noch ein Tisch bekommen. Das Essen war vorzüglich und kann nur empfohlen werden! Auch die Getränke waren gut. Lediglich das Ambiente war mittelmäßig , man konnte sich leider nur schwer verstehen und die Einrichtung war etwas lieblos.

Very tasty food, nice staff and nice location. A little higher priced for the cuisine on offer, but still within reason. Very long opening times

Very good ambience and service, as always

Tried different things! All dishes were very fresh and tasty. For every dish we were asked by the very nice and attentive service staff whether the dish should have coriander! We are really looking forward to our vacation in Vietnam. The restaurant was already full in the afternoon! So it's best to reserve a table.

En general disfrutamos de este restaurante. Buena comida y buen servicio al cliente. La sopa Pho estaba especialmente deliciosa. € 70 euros por una bebida y plato principal para 3.

The food was great, it would just be nice if there were a few more vegetarian options

Very tasty food, summer rolls and pho. We'd love to come back. Attentive service

The food is excellent and I got free mango ice cream. The waitress is super friendly, and speaks German so well, I'm impressed.

A special, very traditional Vietnamese restaurant in Dortmund. The service is extremely friendly and warm. The bun dishes and soups have an excellent, authentic taste. A small downside is that I was there on the weekend and the restaurant was very busy and a bit noisy. Nevertheless, it is absolutely recommended – I am very satisfied! 🥇🥇🥇

I ordered 3 dishes that were delivered via Wolt. However, they suck. The Mi Xao Gion dish was very bad, the fried noodles seemed very old, I clearly felt the taste of old cooking oil, and sometimes it was even bitter. The Hu Tieu dish contains shrimp that is not fresh and smelly. It doesn't even have the taste of Vietnamese noodles. The only good point is that Goi Cuon's dipping sauce is delicious

Incredibly good food - my vegetarian vegetable soup was a pleasure and soothing for the soul after a long day: crunchy, fresh, diverse selection of vegetables with a tasty bouillon. Service absolutely courteous without being intrusive. The menu offers something for every taste - vegetarian and meat dishes. Absolute recommendation.

Delicious food, very cosy and friendly place. Great vegan and gluten free options.

Sehr netter Service und super leckeres Essen. Haben uns verschiedene Hauptgerichte geteilt und alle waren sehr lecker.

Super freundliches Personal und nettes Ambiente. Wir haben uns 5 verschiedene Gerichte geteilt und war alles sehr lecker. Gerne wieder :) Danke!
