We moved inside to sit on a bigger table.The poor selection of liquors should have been our next clue. But optimism still prevailed. First out came the popadoms, possibly the worst popadoms I've ever had. Definitely not home made. 1/10Next came "bhaji-gate". An abomination of onion rings was presented to my pals. These floppy battered things looked like Freddy Mercury. I was offered Iceland Kerry Katona brand range chicken nuggets; sold to me as chicken pakoras. All the starters came with budget salad and a garlic sauce which should have been reserved purely for class A criminals. Next came out the mains. I wasn't feeling up to my usual medium-hot spicey dish, so opted for a chicken korma. It was at this point my dreams of a great curry in Germany came crushing down.The tesco value chicken combined with cheese and tofu was just too disgusting and the icing on the cake. I refused to pay and had a barrage of staff try to intimidate me. As a goodwill gesture I offered them 5 euros towards the chef's next culinary lessons and the restaurant's next trip to a half decent supermarket for ingredients.The worst curry I've ever had, rude staff.

We could not have been happier with the results. The construction is done and for those who have read previous reviews the bathrooms are clean and private. The food was excellent, the portions huge, and the waitstaff friendly. We would definitely return again and feel fortunate to have lucked in to finding Asra.

Fast and well tasting food. Inexpensive, especially for lunch. Try this place before exploring the Eastside Gallery!

I noticed the tip and asked him, “is the tip automatically added?” and he said, “yes”. I just paid because I didn’t want to argue but he is definitely not supposed to do that. He’s an Asian guy in glasses and was working on 12/27 in the afternoon. The service was terrible and we had to call onto the server repeatedly to ask for stuff because he was not attentive. There were only three people dining… How weird of him to tip himself after providing the worst service I’ve experienced in Berlin.
