Lucky Leek - Berlin

A trip to this upscale vegan restaurant was my spurge during a short stay in Brelin. I was really looking forward to trying this restaurant and it certainly...

Great vegan food, menu changes every 4 weeks. We had 5 courses and everything was delicious. Highly recommending the place.

Taste 7/10: The taste for vegan and vegetarians I am sure will enjoy (me included). It's good, but not outstanding. For meat eaters they might give a even...

Lucky Leek was recommended by a friend and I'm really glad we splashed out. For a vegan restaurant it is very expensive but we had lovely, fast and friendly service. It is by far my favourite vegetarian/vegan restaurant experience and I must have visited every London vegetarian restaurant! They were happy to create a non mushroom main for my allergic partner too.The only thing that knocked off a star from the 5 course chef's menu was the dessert. The lychee sorbet was absolutely amazing but the rest of the dessert didn't work for me. The pancake and blueberry mousse are obviously difficult to achieve without dairy and I think it let the meal down slightly. The chocolate dessert from the other menu looked fantastic so it's a shame they do not let you swap any courses if you pick a set menu! NB you can do a la carte on Wednesday and Thursday BUT you cannot pay with a card if your bill is under 100 euros. Quite a few diners had to walk to a cash point. I found this a bit ridiculous at a high end restaurant. They should really point this out when you book online so people can at least bring cash with them!

Had higher hopes as this was our first night in Berlin. The food was decent but really nothing special and after our mains were cleared, we waited about an hour and a half for two vegan cheese boards. What rubbed me the wrong way was that when I asked where the desserts were it was obvious something had gone wrong but there was no acknowledgement we had been waiting so long even though tables that arrived before us, who ate from the same Set Menu had already payed up and left. The rest of the trip we went to some fantastic veggie restaurants which were better value in price, food and above all TIME.
