Decent Asian vegan restaurant - Edit
Good spot for a lunch. Mostly Chinese and Vietnamese dishes. Their lunch specials are very good value when one considers the size v. cost - a yummy deal, really. The tapas plates (dim sum and small servings of what would be main dishes elsewhere) seem overpriced given the portions, and they're a mixed-bag in terms of quality. Not the greatest out there in terms of vegan Asian restaurants, but still good.
Read morePros: Lots of options, Lunch special is a great deal

I thoroughly enjoyed the food and service. My only regret is not having had enough of an appetite to try more dishes!

Great vegan gem in East Berlin - Edit
We visited here whilst on holiday and it was well located, within a short walk off the tube. The area itself was a tad rough, but this place had a good vibe to it and staff were welcoming. Great choice on the menu, with small fish Mezze being around 4 euros. We had a red curry and a cheese corn dog type thing as a starter and then a larger Mezze as a main. The food was served very quickly and piping hot and the cheapest place we'd eaten in all week. Their smoothies were delicious too. Would definitely recommend eating here.

Worth all the 5* reviews - Edit
I had the sweet potato rice noodles with veggies and duck (for 7.50€) and it was spectacular! This is by far the best (vegan) duck I've ever had. Service was quick, friendly and helpful. They also made the noodle dish extra spicy for me - was perfect! Nice size portions for excellent prices. Also had the special, a bowl of noodles soup with veggies and seitan balls with free drink for 6.90€! What a deal for such flavor bomb.

Amazing vietnami food. Order many small tapas so you can taste a lot of different things. Dessert was the only thing that didn't meet the same standard

greasy, not very tasty food - Edit
We were really excited to try some of these asian tapas, however were really disappointed when we got them. Most things were fried and very greasy and we both had a stomach ache afterwards. The (alcoholic) drinks weren‘t very good either. Would not recommend😒

I meant to review this place about a month ago, but didn’t have time, so here it is.
Read moreThe vegan duck was super delicious and my favourite dish. I didn’t care much for the vegan shrimp, but the curry was delicious and some of the dumplings were okay.
We ordered several vegan tapas to try, but in the end we’re still hungry and ended up ordering 2 extra dishes to share. The food itself was 4-5 stars, but the service is 2-3 at best. We had to constantly flag down our servers and even get up and go to the bar (which was just in front of us) to get the person’s attention. It wasn’t too busy, but the servers were on their phones or not paying attention for really long periods of time.
At some point we received someone else’s order or the wrong order, but someone at our table accepted it anyways as the mistake was already made and they didn’t want the food to go to waste. I think at some point we wanted drinks, but gave up on flagging down servers to order. Getting the bill was also a nightmare and turns out they’re cash only at random times and don’t say until the end. The issues are endless.
Red flag 🚩 I can’t stand when a business throws something on customers like that and then expects the customers to solve the business’ problem. Telling us to go find an atm and such. So I should have to run around in the middle of the night in a foreign city looking for an atm because you chose not to disclose your machine has been broken for some days before the meal? How is it our problem? I simply would not eat here if I knew there’s no way to pay. When they wait, I feel like they know we wouldn’t have eaten here so they don’t say. 2 other tables were also in shock and told to go find atms. There was then a group of us standing in confusIon.
Are they willing to cover the atm fee, our banks foreign exchange fee and the fee for withdrawing money abroad? Not to mention the terrible conversion rate that atms have which are always lower than banks.
They need to train their managers and staff to use their problem solving skills and offer solutions like use your neighboring business’s card machine and have them exchange with you for cash, take PayPal, order online through a delivery app and choose pick up instead of delivery, then reimburse the customer for any extra fee charges, etc. I mean honestly, I can think of several options.
I don’t return to crap service. Mediocre food I can handle, but treating people like that is restaurant death to me.

The worst part of eating in Berlin was that they only accepted cash everywhere. That was such a big headache

Ha!! No lie, I think the table next to me literally walked out. They were done waiting and were like- “welp”. Gone. There were several of us just standing near the register for like 20 minutes in confusion and the staff just began ignoring us and walking around us.

Cash wasn't king here during covid. It is reverting. I refuse to eat cash only. It is seedy and unnecessary

I generally refuse to as well since I lost my debit card in Jordan months back and literally cannot withdraw from an atm. I only have Apple Pay.

Ive ordered like 6 plates, all of them quite mediocre regarding taste and quality. The place smells like fried oil, and the service is very impersonal. Wouldn’t come here nor recommend it again.

Big portions and good food! 🍜 - Edit
We had two different main dishes and I really liked them both. The portions were pretty big and the prices okay. There are so many options that I will probably revisit this place in order to taste more of their delicious food! 😍

Wir haben hier zwei verschiedene Hauptgerichte gegessen, die beide gut geschmeckt haben und groß genug sind, um satt zu machen. Da die Karte aber noch so viele andere leckere Gerichte beherbergt, werde ich sicher nochmal wiederkommen und mehr von dem Essen im Element Five probieren! 😍

Loads of options - Edit
We ordered maybe 7 dishes to share between 3 people and enjoyed them all. I especially liked the pancake rolls and the dim sum. All of the dishes came with nice sauces and were quite flavorful. I just wouldn't recommend the iced coffee, it was incredibly sweet.
