Super interesting flavours - Edit
The most interesting meal we found in the area. Uzbek cuisine is new to me - the dumplings, koftas and accompaniments were the most memorable dishes and flavours of our trip. The restaurant has a lovely interior. Glad we came across this lovely spot.

Which means I liked half of the dishes we ordered. It looked very promising, unfortunately it lacked taste.

definitely unique - Edit
Dervish offers traditional dishes from Uzbekistan veganized.
Read moreVery interesting, as I have never been to a similar spot before.
The dishes remind me of russian cuisine with Mediterranean influences.
Options are for example okroshka, a cold kefir-soup with potato pieces and dill or an eggplant soy-chunk goulash.
Spices I recognized also take place in oriental / Arabic dishes (e.g. sumach).
This mix was pretty special.
Our favorite was the goulash - go and get it with some traditional bread to dip in!
Pros: staff was very friendly

The waiter told us a lot about his Uzbek culture and food. His wife runs the kitchen and she did such a great job. I never tasted something this extraordinary in my life. 10/10 would recommend and I'll definitely come again.

Yum - Edit
Really pleased with the service, food came quickly and was thoroughly enjoyed. The atmosphere inside was quiet and peaceful, would recommend the floor seating. Ordered : kofta Set, Manti side, the vegamisu, mango lasi and the iced matcha.
Read moreHappy with every item ordered, and would be keen to go back and try more. In the set there were a few fried barak and those really won me over so that's a recommendation for sure.
Set , side , and a dessert to share was honestly a good amount of food between the two of us

Unique! - Edit
What a treat! Vegan Uzbek! There are many, many places to choose from in this neighbourhood but I'd say this should be top 3 places you should go. The food was great and beautifully presented, there was cook music playing - presumably Uzbek folk, you can sit on the floor or at a standard table.
Read morePros: Lots of exciting choice in the menu, The ambiance - decor, music, vibe

Good food but terrible service - Edit
The dervish goulash is very good, especially with the chili sauce, but we waited over an hour for our food. People who ordered much later than us got their food at the same time as we did. We also tried the manti, but they weren’t as savory as I thought they would be.
Read morePros: The goulash and chili sauce is great
Cons: Food took way to long

Original and wholesome food near Boxi - Edit
Dervish serves up vegan Sattvic Uzbek food - a delicious mix of filled flat breads, dumplings, soups, salads, and stewed vegetable dishes. There are some dishes with faux meats too. The range of sizes and options means that there is something for everyone - whether you're ravenous or just after a small bite, tea or a mocktail, a hearty stew or a light small salad. The staff are very friendly and committed to their ideals, and the space is wonderfully decorated with options to sit on the floor too, with moody lighting and a warm ambience. The location is right next to Boxi and offers a nice alternative to the huge amount of burger and East/Southeast Asian options in the area.

The real deal - Edit
This place is run by a vegan family from Uzbekistan. The restaurant is decorated lovingly with a lot of detail. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxed. You can sit on traditional floor cushions or on chairs and tables.
Read moreThe food is super fresh, with lots of interesting dishes to choose from. We got a variety of dishes and everything was very tasty. We were super full but stuffed in some desert anyway which were super nice also.
We will definitely return before our Berlin holiday ends.
Make sure you try the Dervish tea with your food.
Pros: Fresh tasty food, Relaxed atmosphere, Unique and authentic

A real gem - Edit
This is the place if you are looking for a special experience! The atmosphere of the restaurant is really nice (calming colours, music and comfy seatings) and the staff was super friendly. And most importantly, of course, the food was super delicious!
Read moreThey have smaller dishes and main dishes but also great plates with a bit of everything already combined. The manti are my favourite so far but I am looking forward to trying the great looking deserts the next time.
Pros: Great food, Kind staff

Surprisingly tasty and shockingly empty at lunch - Edit
We were looking for something different from burgers or Vietnamese and we found this very nice Uzbekistan vegan restaurant based on Sattvic diet. We had never eaten Uzbek food before and we really liked it. An interesting fusion of flavours. There should be more vegan restaurants from other countries in Berlin beside the usual suspects. The owner was very nice and friendly. We were surprised to see it empty at lunch time, it definitely deserves a visit.

Lovely food in a family-run eatery - Edit
An all vegan Uzbek eatery - what a lovely place! Not only was the food great, the service, the ambiance and the overall feeling of this restaurant is everything one would want when dining out. I enjoyed the little chat we had with the owner prior to ordering. He cared to explain what sattvic food is and why this matters to him. His wife is the one in the kitchen preparing all the food, so bonus for the fact that this is a family run business too. Would hands-down recommend!
Read morePros: ALL vegan, Great care with flavors and health, Family-run
