Saigon Shack

“Alles ist verdammt lecker und wird super frisch zubereitet.”

Can’t believe I never left a review since I’ve been going there for years and it’s been and stays so good. A little family place that’s so unremarkable from the outside that one wouldn’t guess what a little gem it is. Whether it’s a little snack or a bigger meal, everything is always fresh and tastes delicious. The food is basically cooked in front of you and everyone who works there is always sweet and friendly, my absolute recommendation for the “upper Friedrichshain” area

Great little restaurant that serves home made Vietnamese food at moderate prices. A favorite spot for lunch or a quick bite. The owner is very friendly and seems passionate about the food. A must try: the taro bun dessert!

We went for the first time recently but had to come again only a few days later as the food was really good and the prices decent. We ordered Nem, Banh Mi, Pho and Pad Thai and everything was really good. The place felt cozy as well and the staff is super nice.

It’s a good price/quality ratio. The highlight here was the banh mí, for 4,90€ it tastes nice, the sauce is tasty and rich. It is a bit sad that the meat version has lemongrass chicken but the vegetarian one plain fried tofu and not also a marinated version. The vegetarian pho was ok, not the best I’ve had but it’s also only 9,50€ here. For 2 main dishes, a banh mí as starter, and 2 teas we paid 29€ with tip, which in 2025 not so common is anymore !
