Chigogi in Magdeburg

The food was very good, but the service was more than attentive. 5 stars

Review: My First Time at a Korean Restaurant – But Certainly Not My Last My first visit to a Korean restaurant was an entirely positive experience that I'd like to share. The friendly and attentive service was immediately noticeable upon entering the restaurant. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and the food was served remarkably quickly. The quality of the food was completely convincing: all dishes were freshly prepared, tasted fantastic, and were generously portioned, so you definitely felt full after the main course. I'd especially like to highlight that our server asked beforehand whether we preferred spicy food or something milder. I found this consideration very pleasant and professional. Overall, it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience that left a positive impression. I'm definitely planning another visit.

I had the fried chicken and doncassou. The fried chicken was so salty it was inedible (and I eat very salty food), and the doncassou (chicken schnitzel with vegetables) was a joke for €16. Many Asian restaurants make it juicier, tastier, and cheaper.

Thank you so much for the very friendly service. Everything tasted wonderful! 👌🫰

Very good Korean street food, lots of great appetizers, and everything incredibly delicious. Plus, super friendly service and reasonable prices. Absolutely recommended!

Delicious Korean dishes. Superbly seasoned and beautifully presented. Keep up the good work.

A very nice restaurant in the heart of Magdeburg on Hasselbachplatz. The atmosphere is friendly, but a bit chilly. The staff is very attentive. The food and drinks are tasty. Only the beef strips were a bit tough. Card payments are accepted.

Super delicious food, very friendly service, and no long waits. Highly recommended! Especially the jjajangmyeon :-)

Delicious food and extremely friendly service

First time there. It was simply perfect. The food was delicious and the price was right. We'll be back...

Fantastic food with very friendly service. 🤌🏼

We're still sitting at our table and are absolutely thrilled! The food was delicious, as were the drinks! Friendly service, and despite it being busy, everything went very quickly. We'll definitely be back!

We're still sitting there and have fallen in love with the place. Everyone is super nice and the food is really good. We'll be back.

A simple street food restaurant with a focus on excellent Korean cuisine. Uncomplicated and fast service. The ambiance is simple, but the food is simply delicious. Among other dishes, we ate the bibimbap.

A modern restaurant with very attentive and friendly service. The food was very good (a variety of appetizers, bao buns, bibimbap, and dessert) and absolutely reasonable in price. Card payments weren't accepted that evening, but we were informed immediately, so it wasn't a problem. If we're in the area again, we'll definitely be back!

Super friendly service, nice waitresses. The food was incredibly delicious, as were the drinks. 100% recommended! We'll be back 😊

The place is so awesome. The food is a real explosion of flavor, and the staff is very friendly. Everything was very quick, and we'll definitely be back. You should know.

Very good. The food is of high quality, the service is a bit slow but cozy, and the prices are a bit high, but only slightly. I'd be happy to go back.

Delicious food at reasonable prices. Very friendly staff and the food is really good.

Great location, waiter was very pleasant, food was delicious.

Good food, friendly staff, horrible waiting times

This restaurant is definitely recommended for anyone who loves Korean food. The food is delicious and plentiful. The service is super friendly.

Went there for the first time today. It was delicious, and the service was great, too. I highly recommend it 🎉

When I got home, I realized that the bill was wrong. The total is 46.8.

Very tasty food, lovely ambiance, and friendly service. The place gets packed in the evenings, so I recommend going for lunch. Bao buns with pork belly 👌

A table reservation for four people didn't work. I was turned away in a condescending manner. Sorry, that's not acceptable.

We chose dishes with pork belly. The food was excellent. I can only recommend it. Since this restaurant is always busy, I recommend making a reservation in advance.

The food tasted very good, but VERY modest for the price. The cocktail I ordered didn't live up to its name. For €8.50, it was completely watered down, and the rum was just a side dish. What a shame

Very good food and it was cozy inside and not too loud, the staff was very nice and I would like to go there again!

The food tastes very good. Korean, not cheap, but very good.

I was very surprised to find such a good place in Magdeburg... We spontaneously decided to go out to eat and ended up at Chigogi... The location is true to its theme...Korea everywhere you look... The service was very attentive and friendly... The food really looks like the pictures...it's a dream that it tasted perfect, you could almost picture it in your head, and it was perfect... The portions are very large... I think the price-performance ratio is absolutely reasonable and not overpriced... If you like Korean food, you should definitely stop by...

Very good food and excellent, friendly service. Starters, main courses, and even the various desserts were simply delicious. Definitely worth a visit!

great food but please put tangsuyuk and jjamppong too 😭😭😭😭😭

The food was delicious, and the service was friendly and professional. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Magdeburg!

We spontaneously went there for dinner on Saturday. We managed to get a table for two, but a reservation is recommended. Both the starters and main courses were delicious and fresh. We didn't have to wait long, and the staff were always very attentive. That's exactly what you want. Everything was great. Thank you for the lovely evening.

Very tasty, great service, every dish was delicious, came quickly and the homemade drinks were excellent.

Very tasty from kimchi to desserts

Delicious 😋 cuisine. Friendly and polite staff. Reasonable prices. Clean and well-maintained ambiance. 👍🏻

I was at Chigogi with 4 other people on May 10th, 2025 and I can only recommend it! The food, everything about it was simply top Go and see for yourself. We'll definitely be back

Nice staff and great food, easily accessible outside even with a stroller.

Very friendly and courteous staff! Food very tasty.

I came here from another city for one dish, which for some reason is not included in the menu of other Korean restaurants. I really wanted to try it and I am glad that I visited such a wonderful place. A very friendly waiter, delicious food and a pleasant atmosphere leave only the best impressions and memories.

Definitely one of my favorites. It's a shame that I could only go here once 😅 The Jjajangmyeon is not only vegan with super crispy tofu but also super delicious 😋

There were three of us. The food was super delicious; the plates were warmed up and the portions were generous. We've had enough. We didn't wait long and the waitress was very accommodating - thank you for the extra soy sauce and the extra spicy side dish. We'll definitely be back - the sticker with the Uber Eats Awards on the door is definitely not fake

Delicious food. Tastes quite authentic. Price performance is also very good.

Very tasty food, the service was friendly and the prices are right. Absolutely recommended!

I was in Chigogi for the first time on April 11th, 2025. I will definitely come again. I tried different dishes. And everything was absolutely delicious. If you had any questions you were given good advice. It was a successful end to the evening. For me, Chigogi is one of the best places to go if you want to eat delicious food. Keep it up!

bao buns definitely recommended

Purely by chance, during a conversation in our neighborhood, I heard how Chigogi came 4th in the Germany-wide Uber Eats competition in the summer of 2024. So I thought I would give this a try. I'll tell you straight up, this was the best Asian restaurant I've ever dined in! Everything just fell into place. From the ambience, to the courteous staff, to the delicious food for a small thaler. Clear recommendation, I will come back (P.S Order the Don Kassou - a dream 💭)

So for me it was the first visit there. And I was so surprised. I have never eaten so well in Magdeburg!!!! The service is courteous but not at all intrusive and very friendly. The food and drinks were delicious and we will 100% be back. In my opinion a secret tip in Magdeburg!!

Very, very tasty food, fully creative and individual & incredibly nice service!!

Super tasty, recommend the Chicogi bites

great authentic Korean restaurant, rarely eaten such a good Bibimap

-Very attentive service -Very good value for money -The food is a feast for the palate and eyes

Super delicious food. Staff really nice and attentive, good advice. The place is totally chic, we felt very comfortable, an absolute top tip.

Limited options for food, but everything ordered was great! A lot of different options available for cocktails. Reasonably priced. Must try Baobuns.

We were here for lunch with 9 people and everyone enjoyed it excellently. The staff was friendly, the dessert was also great and the price-performance ratio was great. A culinary journey that we would like to take again! Thank you!

Great food and drink. Service very good, fast and friendly. Highly recommended, but must be ordered in advance. Always my pleasure.

Delicious food at reasonable prices. Service very friendly and quick.

A really good restaurant with quality food and delicious taste!

Very authentic food and every dish was on point. Staff was also very open and friendly! We will definitely come back here on our next visit to Magdeburg.

Super tasty, great nice service. Even the starters are incredibly good and interesting. During our last visit there was a strong draft at our table and we discovered afterwards that the upstairs windows were open. It was uncomfortable, but we were able to get through it.

Absolutely delicious Korean food. The food was fresh and the drinks came quickly. The staff is attentive and friendly. The prices are absolutely fair, we will be back.

Great food, friendly, quick and tasty, what more could you want. Price wise everything is good too! Would love to come back.

Small but fine selection of Korean dishes

Food was really poor quality and overpriced. I haven't eaten so badly in a long time. Having cats in the restaurant is not possible at all.

Very tasty food. Extremely friendly service. Tables are very close together, but that's bearable.

It was a bit fresh and the atmosphere was like a local bar

Nice Korean restaurant, very friendly service, tasty shakes, I still have to get to know that menu a bit, so we will come back again...

A great Korean restaurant. The food was very good and nicely presented. The employees were very nice.

Good selection of food and drinks, very friendly service, atmospheric ambience, cash and card payments are possible

This was our fourth time eating here and our expectations were once again exceeded. The service staff is always friendly and leaves nothing to be desired. We personally recommend choosing several “smaller” starters instead of one large main course. This means you can try a little something from each plate and still feel full! We've never left the restaurant hungry...quite the opposite! There is also a good selection of vegetarian dishes (lots with tofu). These were also convincing! All in all, we can highly recommend the restaurant and hope that many more people will get a taste for it! :-) Definitely a win for Magdeburg!

As always, it was extremely tasty, friendly and accommodating. Nice family meal

Great restaurant. Very tasty food. I'm looking forward to my next visit

A very nice local.very friendly service and fantastic food. Very happy again and absolutely recommended

delicious food and nice people💯

I am absolutely thrilled with the food, the ambience and the service! Friendly, relaxed, a place to enjoy delicious food and relax. Thank you very much 😊👍🏻

One of the best restaurants I have been to ,so far .The warm, inviting atmosphere with its blend of traditional décor and modern touches made it the perfect spot for a relaxing meal. The food was absolutely delicious—each dish was packed with authentic Korean flavors! The kimchi was perfectly fermented, all the main dishes resembled the actual and real flavours. What really set this experience apart was the exceptional service. Our servers Lara and Söri, were incredibly friendly and attentive. It made our meal so much more enjoyable! I highly recommend Chigogi to anyone looking for an authentic Korean dining experience with top-notch service. I’ll definitely be back!

finally Korean food again in Magdeburg 🤩 we were given an incredibly warm welcome at Chigogi and were equally looked after. Excellent food: attention is paid to quality and freshness. I'll definitely come back :)

Top service and very tasty food. We would love to come back again.

This was our second time eating there. On our first visit, immediately after the new opening, we really liked the food and this was the case again. The menu is very clear, the ambience matches the food harmoniously, very friendly staff, not a long waiting time and the general quality makes us come back

Top. Very good restaurant. The food is very, very tasty. The food selection is good. The price-performance ratio is right. The staff is very friendly. Thank you for the good hospitality.

The food tasted very tasty and the service was top.

Great service and delicious food, absolutely worth a visit. The prices are unbeatable, you get a friendly welcome and the staff is very attentive. Full 5 deserved stars 👍

Amazing food with very attentive and friendly staff

Food 10/10, service 10/10, atmosphere 10/10, just thank you very much for this wonderful evening with you 🙏🏻 I can really recommend it with all my heart! ❤️

Food, service, value for money and friendliness are all top!!!

One of the best fried chicken ever (amazingly crunchy the Chigogi bites) The pork ribs are super soft and the bibimbap has a wide range of flavours. Generous portions. Super friendly service ❤️ Recommend and we will definitely come back!

super friendly & fast service, well decorated interior, a bit pricey but the food was good & lots of options r available🥢

Very nice restaurant, with great food...there's a lot you don't know about. We'd love to come back.

Sitting inside is nicer than outside. The street is very close. We enjoyed the food (fire meat and ribs, homemade lemonade ) and it is served in an attractive arrangement. Gladly again.

The service was amazing. Food is ok. A bit on the pricey side . Can visit once .

Very tasty food, small menu which is good and there is something for everyone. Great and very fast service. 10 out of 10 in Magdeburg's prime location directly on Hasselbachplatz

Delicious Korean food, with also cheaper street food options. Nice atmosphere and good coffee. The only drawback is that there is only one toilet at a time, which could lead to traffic jams if the place is full.

Great restaurant! The food was really very tasty. The service was very quick and all the employees were extremely friendly. A good selection of vegetarian dishes.

Delicious food, nice service, reasonable prices

Best Korean restaurant in Magdeburg. Very nice staff and super delicious food

Chi Go Gi Korean Restaurant offers a pleasant atmosphere with exceptionally friendly service. The portions are generous and the overall quality of the food is commendable. However, I found the glass noodle dish a bit too oily. Apart from that, all other dishes exceeded my expectations.

Good restaurant. Unfortunately you can't vary the sharpness when choosing, but that's okay. Nice personel. Setup a bit easy.

Always great here! Nice staff and very good food! I love the street food!
