Asian fusion rice bowls and noodle soups with Szechuan influence. The menu also includes small plates - a great option for exploring different flavors. The space itself boasts a minimalist yet cozy concept.
Relaxed Thai restaurant offering a traditional menu that's perfect for a quick lunch bite. Easily amendable to accommodating vegetarian only requests. Watch out, when they say "medium spicy", they mean it.
One of many fries-focused options in Berlin, Goldies also does fried chicken sandwiches and at their second location, smashburgers. It's all fine in a pinch but some might like other similar spots better. Still good.
Small and unassuming Korean fried chicken shop. Good wings, decent fried chicken sandwiches. Varying levels of spice.
Daluma is a vegan's delight, serving up smoothies, vibrant bowls, and great coffee. The flavors will excite the omnivores amongst us too - it's that good. Their avocado and toast is out of this world 🥑.
Famous for their pastrami sandwich and New York-style cheesecake. It's good, it's good! But it's definitely not New York. Try and grab a table outside for some Auguststraße people watching.
Great Mitte spot for lunch with a focus on freshly made pasta. Can't really go wrong with the burrata either. Recently added a nice outdoor backyard for the summers!
Chinese favorites with a fusion spin on them, so your senses are in for a treat. Keep your phone charged for the Insta-worthy dishes and interiors (check the unique bathroom lighting) ✨.
Dudu is one of the higher end Asian fusion places 🍱🍜🥢. A little sleek, a little sterile. Does everything well, but nothing *great*. Good for lunch.
Homey little cafe from a celebrated sister duo serving an excellent brunch with a Persian twist. The mascarpone pancakes or poached eggs are sure bets - but you can't miss with anything. Also great for their lunchtime sandwiches.
Traditional Japanese ramen bowls. Arguably the best in Berlin. The intimate space can only take so many guests, so there's always a queue, plus they don't take reservations. Two locations (Mitte and Kreuzberg).
The Japanese-inspired fuwa-fuwa buns are little balls of soft, fluffy goodness, and the Mochi fries are unlike any other with their doughy texture.
Tiny Bergmannkiez shop frying up double-fried Korean chicken in sticky soy-garlic or chili glazes. Seating is tight, so most orders leave in takeaway boxes.
