Bewertungen Transit Restaurant

Really really yummy Asian tapas! The small bowls cost 3€ and the big (BIG!) ones 7€. Food is served fast and staff is friendly and speak English. THe place itself is quite noisy, but the damp light and dark interior makes it really cozy. Usually a lot of ppl, so making a reservation is not a bad idea.

On a recent trip to Germany (so recent I'm still feeling the jet lag), Transit was one of my favorite dining experiences in Berlin. The ambiance was welcoming but eclectic with the ceiling covered with hanging colorful bird cages, and the way the restaurant is set up, with one long row of tables against the wall, felt pretty authentic. We were also super pleased with the prices, with most tapas, apart from the 8 euro "specialty plates," were only 3 euro a piece. In the states, each plate would easily run 10 - 12 bucks, so it seemed like a bargain dining here. They place was really busy on a Saturday night, but the two of us were seated in 15 minutes, so it really wasn't bad. If you have a big party though, definitely make some ressies. The menu (which came with english subtitles) was pretty diverse and had a little bit of everything for everyone on it. For the two of us, we ordered: crunchy veggie dumplings, coconut curry chicken, calamari, crunchy chicken spring rolls, rice bun dough wrapped chicken/veggies, what looked like duck tequitos, rice noodles with chicken and veggies, and a side of rice. Now these dishes were called sometime completely different that what I just named them off as FYI. The crunchy veggie dumplings were served in a portion of 3 with some avocado dipping sauce which was essentially asian inspired guac, and they were friggen delicious. The shell was crunchy and the filling was flavorful and fresh... and the asian guac was one of my favorite parts of any of the dishes. The coconut curry chicken was just okay, probably the least favorite of what we ordered, mostly because the cuts of chicken used were less than desirable and there was alot of dark and fatty meat used. The calamari was delish, and for me to say that is huge since I don't exactly partake in seafood often, but this stuff had some amazing flavor on it and was super crunchy and not chewy at all. They also use little whole squids, so it's not all the fried rings like I'm used to. The crunchy chicken springrolls were served as 3, and I liked them personally, but boyf thought they were only just okay. They were crunchy and not oily and the inside had small chunks of chicken and minced veggies - just as you'd expect. I did not try the duck but was told it was fantastic. The chicken and rice noodles was the most mainstream dish we ordered and while tasty, was nothing special or anything set apart from dishes I can order at any Thai restaurant. The rice bun dough wrapped chicken/veggies was one of my favorite things we ordered and unlike anything I've had. I was expecting a bun, but it was like a noodle wrap, almost the consistency of a wonton, encompassing a delicious collective of minced chicken and veggies. I did not dislike one thing we ordered, and thought everything was really well done and delicious. For dessert, we attempted to take advantage of the Yelp check-in offer of 1 euro off the pana cotta, but they were out so we got some kind of green tapioca. It was alright, not something I would probably pick out myself, but enjoyable for a few bites. Totally recommend trying Transit out!

It"s Asian Tapas!!!! Not everything is great, but some are, and its all good. I have brought many people here, and we have never been disappointed. Enjoy, David

This place is awesome. I was in Berlin with a couple friends for the weekend and found this place here on Yelp. We showed up around 8:00 on a Saturday night to find the place packed (always a good sign). Then the hostess told us it would be about a two hour wait to get a table, but after some sweet talking, "squeezed" us into a great table near the kitchen. The menu is simple, pretty much tapas style, only Thai. Each of us got 2 dishes (about 3 euro a piece) and a dish of rice, which was plenty. I highly recommend the curry dishes, they were amazing. The atmosphere combined with the great prices and delicious food make this a winner in my book. I will definitely be back here next time I'm in Berlin!

Transit is Asian food revisited. It looks very cool to begin with. It's big, and has 2 parts: one more Asian looking part with round tables and one part with an enormous amount of birdcages hanging from the ceiling. To order you have to fill out an order form and give it to the waiter. Order some little dishes with cute names (for 3 euro) per dish or a big dish for 7 euro. If you want to sit for You can also order in 2 or 3 parts... add rice or noodles for 1 euro. 3 small dishes are plenty for one person! For small eaters 2 will even do... so I don't think it's expensive. The food varies from just good to very good. Service is sweet and fast. I liked the atmosphere, the mixed crowd (from F-hain alternatives to London hipsters) and will definitely go here again. What I like is that, unlike most Asian places in this neighborhood who just focus on feeding you, you can have a nice, and even long dinner here with friends.

A restaurant with a simple, effective concept. You get a menu with 18 base dishes, and an extra little menu of the day with another 8-10 dishes. Every dish costs 3 Euro, except for the rice/noodles which costs only 1 Euro. Then you mark with a pencil what you like, and that's it! The wonderful dishes appear after a little wait and you wonder how they can make any money as the portions are as big as the mains in many London Thai restaurants. Try the Pandan Chicken - it's just fabulous! And everything else is also pretty good, tasty and, more importantly, fun! The dishes arrive in a variety of interesting bowls and plates and dining here was a real delight. It's very easy to over-order but don't worry about it as it is just so cheap. The decor was interestingly red, as in very red, with lots of Asian bird cages on the ceiling. It is a great little restaurant to dine and chat with friends, and everyone is pretty much guaranteed to have a great time. So, I can only highly recommend that you try this place as soon as possible before it closes down as I cannot see how they can make any money from the prices that they are charging.

We LOVE Transit!!! One of our favorite restaurants in the area!! The food is always spectacular, the service is excellent and the atmosphere is relaxing. A mix of asian fusion served tapas style with smaller portions. 3EUR per dish and 1EUR for rice or rice noodles. cocktails are to die for! always strong and beautifully decorated with fresh fruits and orchids. my favorite dishes include the crispy shark catfish in spicy red curry, grilled pork in lallot leaves, spicy lime-marinated steak and the grilled duck. most dishes can be substituted with tofu as well!! hungry yet?? get there soon

the best Thai food in town, not too expensive. I eat there every week, staff is very nice and quick. GO THERE

Wir hatten mit 3 Personen 7 Bowls, eine kam später. Jede Bowl war für sich genommen lecker, allerdings war alles sehr fleischlastig. Ich hätte mir mehr Auswahl bei den vegetarischen Optionen gewünscht oder auch ein bisschen Gemüse mit den Gerichten mit Fleisch. Preise waren okay.

Nette Location mit sinnvoller Bestuhlung des Außenbereichs (der Bürgersteig wird zur Abwechslung nicht blockiert)! Das Pad Thai war laut meiner Begleitung wirklich sehr gut, aber für 11€ etwas arg klein. Ich hatte für je 3,90€ das saisonale Gemüse in Erdnussauce, und Ente im Pfannkuchenteig (das waren 2 Stück), sie haben mich überraschenderweise gesättigt und vor allem ersteres war sehr gut. Das dunkle Weißbier für 4,50€ fand ich dann aber wieder zu teuer. Die Bedienung war höflich und nett, zur generellen Innenatmosphäre und Lautstärke z.B. kann ich leider nichts sagen. Durchaus eine Adresse, die man besuchen kann!
