This restaurant was conveniently located in the same building as our hotel. There was plenty of seating, although there were just three of us. Options included, Mongolian, Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese. Sometimes I dislike buffets because you feel obligated to get your 18 € worth. But since they also had sushi, so that was easy! This place is popular and a little warn looking. The benches and chairs could use some upkeep. Service was prompt, and the buffet was replenished as it should have been.
I read some good thing about this place before, so I decided to visit it. The restaurant was actually so much bigger that I expected, I also like the design here, really modern but at the same time got some traditional Chinese thing around. The whole restaurant got a really nice atmosphere, quite nice to come here with friends or a special one. Their food are in the Chinese Shanghai art. For me, personally I don't usual go with the Shanghai art, it just generally tasted a bit sweet to me, in most of dishes. That was my experience until I went to this restaurant. This time I went there only to try out their buffet. The buffet was actually quite big. The Thing is, at lunch time, it only got a small part of the buffet opened, the food still looked great thought. Some of them even tasted great, just less options. After I finished my meal, I did a glance of the dinner buffet. Wow, it looked pretty good. I probably will come back next time just for dinner. One thing i also noticed, it seem like quite a lot tables was reserved, when the night is getting closer. I guess if people just can here directly, probably to find a good table, better just give them a call before you go. Although it was almost self service during my time there, there was a small accident happened, it was totally the fault of those customers, what I saw, I think the staff did handle it very well. At the end, I think this place is actually quite nice. Go there with friends for buffet, surely it's a great place. I will like to come again.
I was here with friends for dinner and enjoyed their grill station. Since this place is claiming to be the biggest Asia Buffet in Berlin I didn 't go here for authentic Asian food. No, I was craving for some unauthentic cheap fried noodles with greasy vegetarian springrolls in sweet-sour sauce. Turns our Five Zhou is neither cheap nor did I get my fried noodles because all fried rise and noodle dishes were with egg and I underestimated Five Zhous ambition for a well equiped buffet. For the price of 18€ you do get a wiiiiiiide selection of pretty much every classical non-asian-but-claiming-to-be-asian food. The ingredients were fresh, well-seasoned and not over-cooked. Their grill station was huge and offered enough to compensate the fact that I won 't get any fried noodles. (I discovered oyster mushrooms instead and went full pacman on them) In the end: I was super surprised that this buffet is actually quite nice (even as a vegan). I simply wish that Five Zhou could offer one fried rice noodle dish without eggs as a vegan addition.
When you enter the restaurant you can see the food you can try later. There is enough space so you can go with friends or family. The staff is friendly and the food is very tasty! I would recommend to go there and try it for once when you're in berlin.
The food wasn't fresh and had probably been sitting there for awhile. Everything I tasted was way too salty and overcooked and the flavors weren't right. I am writing this with a bad stomachache. Hopefully they can correct the flavors to taste more like what country they claimed to be from. The waiter also had some attitude with me. I understand that he doesn't speak English, but my German friend was with me and helped when I tried to return my bottle of water that I hadn't even opened. The waiter refused to take it back. I decided that since the food was so bad that I didn't feel like spending 5€ more on this bottle of water so I didn't open it. He only allowed me to exchange it for a Coke. Spent 18€ on the buffet and 2.40€ on the Coke. Not worth it at all. The only thing I can say is the restaurant looked quite modern and stylish? But that's ALL

Again and again great, here you get a huge offer and can be fed until falling. The size is quite loud, but you want to buy it. The staff is attentive and friendly.
The biggest Asian buffet in Berlin ABER not the best! Pros: Price/quality ratio is good You really have a very large selection of different foods grouped by different countries. There should be something for everyone. Large selection of vegetarian and also lots of meat as well as fish. Mongolic Buffet with fresh meat and fish is really very well prepared and brought to the table Large selection of sushi good connection to public transport 7 minutes walk (because of the construction site) from the Ostkreuz Station. Free parking up to 2 h in the garage upstairs. Cons: Here I would like to say that I don't just want to criticize and extinguish! I would like to make suggestions for improvement. If you're looking for a little cozy restaurant, you're wrong. If it's full, it'll be loud. But this is a question of taste. general cleanliness in the size of the restaurant leaves to wish. Too little staff for this enormously large area. the toilets are not very clean. There's a stall to urine. Toilet brushes through-osted brackets. No paper to dry your hands. Drinks are brought, food is brought, dishes are taken away by car. It doesn't look really professional. Usually a taboo! As I said, there are no personnel in the area. This is too long. About the car at least a beautiful white tablecloth. The ice cream at the buffet was quite soft. Looks like the freezer is too hot. Unfortunately, the service was not very friendly. The expected common modes of dealing with waiters were probably not present due to lack of language skills. I have not experienced this in German restaurants, but now: lack of labelling of allergens. I am allergic to gluten-containing cereals. However, after marking no wheat flour should be used in the Asian dough pockets. Also in other courts the label was missing. It is sufficient to add a drop of soy sauce into the rice dish and the label A for gluten-containing cereals is obligatory! (They are the substances and products listed in Annex II to Regulation (LMIV) (Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011) Conclusion: The quantity of food and the large area lacks quality. Can I recommend Zhous Five? I'd like to come back. The wide selection of dishes reminds me of a beautiful holiday in the Balearic Islands. However, I am currently not willing to pay 20 euros for a Mongolian buffet, as I am much better for this price restaurant with All you can eat Mongolian. I hope for improvements!
Optically reasonable, very high ceilings! For my taste a little more decoration would be more friendly and cozy, otherwise it seemed almost ascetic. Also the cool color choice of white, light blue, dark brown is not so welcome. But this is my perception. I am more used to red, golden color moods in Asia; but the toilet is great: Otherwise the restaurant has very large windows as if you were somewhere in the future movie, with the cool color scheme still, a kind of mood over the walls: Here you have a versatile kitchen to fall sushi, they did not eat, but the people I said with: Delicious! You can also choose cutlery yourself here: sticks or not sticks.. x The operation was a little mistake as well as its watermelon, needed time until the table was deleted, smile was also not there or a touch like the Chinese wall.. There were also kangaroo meat!!! Otherwise the usual: duck, lamb, chicken, beef and fish are immortalized on the menu. If you're an ally, I can recommend the restaurant. ABER, if you are vegan, vegetarian, raw etc., then not so much because you can not eat much for the price of 16 €. I discovered the heirs there for me! You were very tasty, but for 16 € I don't want to eat so many peas at once, I mean, what? My life wins, forgiveness, special momentum later, and it's too bad for me. Some fruits were also there fruits, vegetables, but according to the experience of others who were there more often, it is different: sometimes top, sometimes flop. I started the flop version, Honeymelon was a 3 , watermelon 3-, bananas a 1!!! : And peas 1 A:D In the kitchen I expected more assortment, at least more than 2 mushroom varieties. I also have comparison with another Mongolian restaurant and there was more choice... And here you have 4!!! different kitchens, also the Mongolians, and only 2 mushroom types LOL But who wants to look at a quite pleasant ambience, rather book in advance, beautiful, time with family and friends and at least spend. Cooked/bready or the like, then you will be well removed there.
I fluctuate between two and three stars and in doubt on the defendant. We stayed there on Saturday, with reservation. Unfortunately, it didn't work right, but we have a table at short notice. The restaurant is located in a shopping center, the MOA. You can't overlook how it takes the entire first floor. Sittings are offered in the restaurant and before. We chose the buffet, costs 16,90€ per person. Sounds relatively favorable. After I wanted to take the first record, I couldn't find it cheaper. The plates themselves were absolute shortware, the dishes were acceptable, but unfortunately no longer. Partly dry and not well seasoned, salt lacked food and on the tables. I missed some sharpness, too. The dishes prepared individually in a wok simply took too long until they came to the table. The price-performance ratio does not fit. Even the removal of the plates took too long, we had to stack. The service tried, or I can't express it. Unfortunately no trace of goodness. In the case of the high number of visitors, the sanitary side stocks were correspondingly heavily frequented, but not regularly checked by the staff. A guest probably had great difficulties meeting the Pissoir and so there was a big puddle. After over three hours, it was not cleaned. I can't.
Together with my works council colleagues, we wanted to spend a nice evening together in the last time of the term of office. The choice was on Zhou ́s Five. The address given here is correct, but the entrance is up via the Moa Center at the big intersection and escalator. The Zhou ́s Five is an Asian buffet restaurant and offers a rich buffet beside some ala Cart dishes. Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese, Thai and Mongolian. Soups, meat, fish, vegetables in various preparations. Mongolic is a good thing to look for the ingredients raw together, and then it can only be brutzeln for itself. As I know from Asia, you will be welcomed at the entrance and guided to a table. Now you have the torment of choice. Ala Cart or Buffet? Because the dishes from the map are not available at the buffet. We all chose the buffet. First I started with sushi. Here are some options to choose from with a lot of ginger and wasabi. After that, I took one of the various hot dishes at the expense. All right. Only the Beijings were tough. Then follow shrimp, once picant with chili and once me celery and garlic. Very, very tasty. Of course, you can make up for various sauces and spices and make up for the food. I was in any case pappsatt and couldn't make dessert anymore. The buffet costs almost 16 euros and is qualitatively and quantitatively worth the money. The drinks are priced in the normal range. A non-alcoholic yeast wheat cost 3.60 euros. The ambience is open, bright and clean. Friendly service. Very recommended.

Bad service, totally overwhelmed, never again. we waited two hours for a table, although we had reserved ourselves. service could not help. eating was okay, but not sooo good
Our expectations were fully met again. the environment very good, eating was very delicious. the service very friendly. prices are appropriate. the restaurant is recommended.
Sono andata per pranzo quindi era aperta solo la parte del buffet riservato alla Cina... Personale ignora totalmente il cliente, lo tratta in malo modo e cosa ancora più grave non conosce la lingua inglese. Del cibo salvo solo gli spaghettini di riso, certe pietanze avevano un aspetto talmente disgustoso che non le ho neanche provate. La mia amica cinese mi ha confermato che riguardo alla carne l'unica mangiabile era il pollo in agrodolce. Sezione dessert e sushi assolutamente da evitare. Acqua con tutta la bottiglia decorata e quindi la fanno pagare un'esagerazione ma alla fine è acqua normale. Unica cosa positiva solo 9 euro per mangiare a pranzo ma sinceramente preferisco spendere di più e mangiare bene.
Wonderful, we were again a la carte eating, as expected very good. the service was always friendly and attentive. a beautiful evening, many thanks.
