Review: The closest stations are on the U2 line (Ernst-Reuter-Platz, and Zoologischer Garten). From the Zoo, walking along Goethestrasse the awning of this cafe-style restaurant is just past the junction with Knesebeckstrasse.
The menu has both vegetarian and vegan options, and it clearly explains that many - although not all - of the dishes can be transformed into vegan ones, substituting tofu in place of paneer and soya milk/cream in lieu of dairy.
So far I've visited this establishment only once - thankfully not with any loud, thoughtless uber-heterosexual men - and I only shelled out twelve euro for myself. I tried the vegetable biryani, the gorgeous and light lentil soup (both mild and incredibly delicious), and a firm kind of almond sweet; all were washed down with some cola, although I was also presented with a pudding of some kind - possibly dairy.
In that sense if you're a long-standing/die-hard vegan it would do to be straightforward in clarifying your dietary habits. I'm sure that the friendly and jovial staff - as is the way with religious food - will try to stick to any prompts, but in their absence they might just presume an ordinary vegetarianism.
The servings are very filling, and twelve euro for three items plus a tumbler of coke is a definite bargain in my eyes - not least considering the food's quality, and the appreciative German patrons of this homely restaurant.

 
Pros: Quality of food. * Value. * Mild, not spicy.
Cons: Easy to walk past. * *

Review: i was a little disappointed in the experience, although i will allow that this might be partially down to my north american expectations. i ordered a cooling raita to tone down my anticipatedly spicy meal-- it was not required, which ironically was a good thing as a) no water was provided and b) the raita had the taste & consistency of a chip dip & not a delicate salad/sauce. the menu was lengthy but with few appetising options. cash only.
 
Pros: vegetarian menu * *
Cons: bland cooking * add-ons add up * slow service

Review: The food here was outrageously good. After dragging around my non-vege friends to 3 other berlin vegetarian establishments which they hated, i finally found a place which EVERY1 loved! . the flavours were vivid and powerful. I was with a large groups so i tried an assortment of the main dishes. EVERYTHING was incredible. The gobi aloo was great and the stuffed tomatoes were amazing. the appetizers and soups were delicious too. The service was quick and friendly (our waiter could have been a comedian),with fluent english and we got meals of soup, salad, appetizer, bread, rice, and main dish all for about 11 euros. this is the best deal in berlin!
 
Pros: excellent food * huge portions * Great value!
Cons: a little noisy * fairly dairy oriented *
