CHIKOGI in Berlin

Terrific food, best miso soup I had sofar, the kimchi really good as well and the bibimbab was crisp, hot and tasty. Unbelievable how many people fit in a small restaurant. Service is good but because of the crowdedness you have to draw their attention

Really really delicious Korean barbecue. I can definitely recommend it. Only the shop is a bit dark.

We got the bbq pork. It was delicious plus we didn’t expect all the sauces and the sides . It was amazing for two people. The kimchi was top

There is a very good variety. The food is generally good, grilled salmon burger was quite plain. Service was very inattentive and cold There is cold wind from the open doorfront, so quite uncosy

Such good food and great service! The chicken wings were pretty much like in Korea and their BBQ was delicious!

Not entirely authentically Korean, nor run by Koreans. You could tell a bit in the spices of the food, as well as the ingredients, but especially in the type of rice and the different types of sauce, which Koreans would never eat in a combo (except for ssamjang). The price was also a bit expensive, but overall 4 stars because the food itself wasn't that bad and because the service was super friendly.

A really nice place – although we visited when it was really cold in September so it was chilly inside. The food was very tasty and prepared so quickly, although the spice levels were higher than I expected. I loved the tea selection & would definitely recommend any of the teas from the menu! 😊🍵

The waiter was terrible rude. They give non Korean rice (normal jasmine rice). Taste was also very no original. This is first time I am giving such a low review. I am very disappointed.

Delicious, high quality, and authentic Korean food

I had Korean food for the first time today. It was very good, especially the marinated chicken, so tender and deliciously seasoned. The BBQ dips were also great. Preparation at the table guarantees freshness and everything stays nice and hot on the plate. The staff was very nice and attentive. I found the drinks to be a bit too expensive. The ambience is very dark. It was also a bit uncomfortable to sit. Very hard chairs and benches, some without backrests and unfortunately without seat cushions. But overall, a very nice enjoyable experience. Would definitely like to come back.

Nice bbq and great menu, tasteful

The Korean BBQ was very good, super delicious! Not very spicy! Very well served! The staff is friendly and attentive ! The place is a little small but I did not have the feeling that I was too Smokey when I left there. The only BUT is that I felt super thirsty when I left the restaurant.. maybe the seasoning used for the meat was too salty.

Delicious food, we had a beef bbq for 2 persons and another veggie bbf for 2. The food is a bit spicy, but totally reasonable for someone who is not eating spicy foods. It took a while to get the food, but it was very crowded so it’s understandable. Totally recommend

Nice flavour tried the udon noodles but too much oil for my own liking.

Good food, especially for lunches. At the same time, it’s hard to comprehend the speed of the service which takes ages to collect the order, we were the table of 6 people and we left eventually as waiter was busy taking orders from people who arrived after us.

We had the Mandu as appertizer. The sauces that came with it very amazing. Also had the beef bbq with the us beef - aaaamazing. Very flavourful and delicious. Cannot understand some of the reviews. Very recommendable ♥️

Bibimbap was delicious, no problem however what is the point of heating the plate to 1000 celsius degree? I had to wait like 20 minutes and the more i mixed the food to cool it down, it was getting hotter. I put cold full kimchi plate inside and then kimchi was also cooked and got too hot. I had to take the food to kimchi plate to be able to eat after 30 minutes. After i paid, bibimbap plate was still untouchably hot. Of course this is Some kind stupid city life problem.

Food was very flavorful, meal came out super quick, 9 out of 11 sauces were great, beef was tender. Highly recommend and very satisfied !! 😁😁

Very good food, and great service!! Love that they have Cass beer🥳

Good food, friendly service, nice atmosphere. Recommended: Korean BBQ 🍗

Very good prices and portions and friendly service. I got a soju on the house for my birthday. ❤️

Good Korean food with veggie options. I found the drink very expensive compared to the price of the food. They were fast and efficient, I recommend it if you are already tired of other options

Super delicious food and very friendly staff

Nice, small restaurant on Oranienburger Strsasse. Friendly and quick service. The food is great, the place is rustic, clean and has a nice, lively atmosphere. I paid around €15 for Bi Bim Bap Tofu and a beer. You can sit outside, card payment possible.

Awesome place. Super tasty food, friendly staff,great ambiance. Outdoor and indoor seating, clean toilets. A great variety of Korean dishes, I ate a few and still can't decide which one was better. Not to mention side dishes and sauces, yummy. All in all, a great experience, will visit again for sure.☺️

Having tried many Korean restaurants in Germany and been to Korea twice myself, I had high expectations for the food in this restaurant. Of course, I realize that the flavors may vary due to different spices and ingredients, but compared to my previous experiences, I found the food here to be unusually sour. Both the Bulgogi beef and chicken had a very similar taste, which I found a bit of a shame as I was expecting more variety (we had Beef Bolgogi and Hand Galbi). In addition, several sauces were put on the table, and until the end we weren't sure which dishes they should go with. The Kimchi Padjeon was also a very big disappointment. The batter was firstly eggy (traditionally no eggs are used for this pancake) and secondly very mochi-like. Unfortunately it wasn't fried until crispy and had a lot of vegetables, but there was hardly any kimchi in it. However, I would like to positively highlight the rice and the homemade drinks, which were really tasty and left a lasting impression. Nice to have would be deductions above the tables. Grilling makes the restaurant very hot, which can be unpleasant in summer.

Tasteless and over-priced unfortunately

I wanted to eat Korean food again and visit this restaurant for a long time. The atmosphere is very nice and the food was incredibly tasty. For the price, the food is okay. The people there are very hospitable and treat people with full respect. Service top, everything top. That's why you deserve the 5 stars. I recommend this restaurant to others.

Very delicious, fast service, decent portions and Korean grill absolutely amazing, little bit noisy from the street.

It was a bit hot in the place, from the rest, everything excellent, delicious food (spicier than we expected but very tasty)

Great food and service! Absolutely recommended!! The veggie options are amazing!!

You should definitely make a reservation early as this small restaurant is always busy. That's no wonder, because the food tasted extremely good and the people who worked there were always nice and very accommodating (despite the high stress level). We really enjoyed our evening there. Many thanks again to the “Chikogi” team.

I've been there several times. At lunchtime there is a special menu with selected dishes at a very good price-performance ratio, but you can also order from the normal menu. Although it gets crowded quickly at lunchtime, you get your food pretty quickly. Today my companion and I had bibimbap with (raw) salmon, crispy chicken and Korean crepes as a starter. We enjoyed it very much. A week ago I had bibimbap with tofu, which was also very tasty. I've also tried the tofu burger. I didn't like it that much, but that's probably a matter of taste. We will be back!

We arrived attracted by the heady scents and the cool and industrial/oriental look of the place. We tasted typical dishes served hot, immediately and very tasty.

Very good food, fast service, friendly service, clean toilets, good portions for the price 👍🏻

Really great food! The homemade yuza lemonade was insanely good and refreshing. They offer good vegetarian options. I had the vegan crispy tofu veggie bowl, which was very reasonably priced and had really delicious and crunchy tofu on top! I also enjoyed the industrial-like interior. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area. It can get a bit crowded tho, as the restaurant is rather cozy.

I recently ate here when a friend was visiting in Berlin. We have generally visited a lot of Korean restaurants in Berlin and in your city Frankfurt, plus 13 visits to Korea alone by me, and I always eat Japchae everywhere to compare it, here it was instead of slightly 'sweet' but just salty and Unfortunately, it's really too salty. For the price I expected high quality but unfortunately it was the worst Japchae I've ever eaten. At the end I also mentioned that it was very salty (and I actually love salt - if I say something is too salty, no one in my family dares to try it). I hope that it was adjusted afterwards, but I probably won't go there again to test it because the price is really a bit too high, there is far too much choice in Berlin, you really have to be able to offer something~

The food is not authentic Korean, but it’s still pretty decent we really liked the drinks, the cranberry ginger is the best imo, but bbq overall is just okay. The reason I give 3 star is majorly for the price point v/s qty and taste, I feel everything on the menu is overpriced for the location and the quality.

2nd time here after many years. Still very delicious and quite big portions.

Um there is a reason this is Berlin 146th best Korean. Folk, friends, people... This is not Korean BBQ. A few pieces of meat thrown in with veggies so that the water from the veggies simmers your meat on a portable pan is not KBBQ. The Korean Fried chicken just a lot of batter on small pieces of chicken. Korean side dishes miniscule. The sauces are three different kinds of mayonnaise. It really is sad. And if you want a real Kbbq experience keep walking. The cook neither the employees are Korean. Add to all this $25 per person. It really is sad.

Super Korean restaurant. Everything was super hot and delicious. We had chicken and Bibimpab and it was a real blast.

Amazing food, would highly recommend :) Also, the food got delivered to our table really fast

Minus: - Unfermented raw cabbage, pickled sweet and sour, is sold as kimchi (I find it cheeky to offer something as kimchi in a Korean restaurant that is unfermented). - The food (squid with vegetables) was one-dimensional and boringly seasoned. It was just spicy and sweet, nothing more. I know it from other Korean restaurants, which is different and more sophisticated in terms of seasoning. - More expensive for what you ultimately get, which is not really authentic Korean food in my opinion. - My companion's salad with tofu was good, but in my opinion it was also overly sweet. Plus: - Very fresh, the squid was buttery soft. - Everything is pleasing to the eye, the food is served very “instagrammable”. Conclusion: Tourist restaurant that offers customers something for the eye, but not necessarily something for the palate. The price range also suggests that the target group is tourists.

The food was good, but I didn't like the seafood pancake at all, it was very doughy.

Incredible Korean Restaurant! I tried 3 different dishes, all of them were 10/10. I would recommend it to everyone!

Prices outside are cheaper than on the menu inside.

The food was delicious, we had beef and salmon bibimbap, some chicken wings as a starter. Friendly and attentive service, the place a little dark but comfortable.

Fantastic dinner! First time eating Korean, had the pork ribs for starters and then the brisket. Really tasty loved it all! Service was excellent and fast, despite the place being packed. Great for meeting with friends!

Great korean spot, yangtum chicken was to die for!

Reservations possible for this place located in a very popular area. Quite a choice on the menu, vegetarian options available. Payment by card possible

Food is good but really overpriced. Inside was really hot and steam from the kitchen was unbearable. All in all, positive experience. But quality of place doesn’t warrant the high prices.

Even if the prices have risen compared to a few months ago, the service and portions still remain the same, and it is difficult to leave hungry.

Really a great place, super good, very nice place with attentive servers

Super tasty We had the beef BBQ, a few Maultaschen at the front and a homemade lemonade. Everything was delicious and highly recommended. Unfortunately the price was a bit steep.

Delicious Korean Barbeque, not the best in town but worth a visit. Portions sufficient.

Very tasty Korean BBQ. Bulgogi recommended. Plus fried chicken as a starter - perfect. The interior isn't very nice, but it still fits. Service really friendly and quick

Very good Korean food at fair prices in the middle of Kreuzberg. Can be very busy and hectic during the day, but always good service. You should come here if you like to experience the big city and have a craving for good bibimbap. We recommend.

Food was ok, couldve had a lot more vegetables, especially because it says on the menu with capital letters A LOT of vegetables come with the bbq, instead we got a small plate with 3 slices of each vegetable. The bbq was splashing oil on me and it was a little uncomfortable and the staff wasnt that welcoming, seemed like everyone just wanted to get out of there and go home already. In general very overpriced, wouldnt really recommend. Wouldve been better off frying some pork in a pan at home

Food was decent. Reasonable price.

It is my boyfriend birthday today, so we decided to try something different. We chose korean bbq and chikogi was a great choice it is absolutely yummm. The best kimchi i ve ever taste in Berlin, the meet and the chichen were amazing. We didn't like only one thing which is that we must take 2 portions for the bbq we can't take 1 portion, i think 2 portions needs to be an option.Thank you and keep up the good work.

Best Korean place in Berlin. Bibimbap and Chicken wings are great. Highly recommend.

It was our Korean barbecue and it was great experience !! The waitress was very patient explaining us the menu and advising us what to order. The restaurant has a very nice terrace . It is great place to go with another couple to try more plates on the menu

Very good Korean, great service and super delicious food.

Small cozy restaurant. We had barbecue and found it to be good in terms of taste and value for money. 2 people with 2 drinks, 1 small kimchi soup and 2x BBQ selection. Came out for under €60. BBQ was prepared by the service. We will be back.

Very tasty food, staff was just as nice, would be happy again

There were some flaws here and there. Despite our reservation we were seated in the narrow hallway next to the toilets, which was disappointing but acceptable. Unfortunately, I also received the wrong dish, which was also disappointing. After I kindly pointed this out to the waitress, she took my plate away and brought it back after 2-3 minutes unchanged, only with the remark "immediately". The food was good, but you don't have to go to this restaurant again :)

Honestly the best Korean restaurant I've visited, I stop by more and more often, wonderful service, the decoration is awesome and the food is heavenly but be careful, spicy

Everything was great and delicious Thank you, I can only recommend it 👍

Best Korean Lunch deals in Kreuzburg

We had the pork belly, beef & vegetable korean bbq. Everything was marinated deliciously and tasted very good! You get a lot of different sauces and some banchan (a bit small) to your bbq. The atmosphere was okay - the stools could be more comfy. Overall it was nevertheless a good experience!

Had dinner here on the holiday. Everything was very tasty👍Had the BBQ Bulgogi Beef and the waiter was very friendly too! The best thing were the stools🫡

Best Korean food I’ve ever had. Lunch menu is great value.

Good food but i got glutened even though they reassured salmon bibimbap would be gf. Prolly the sauces. Might be fine for intolerant folk, not coeliacs.

Erdinger wheat beer in a light glass is a disgrace, otherwise it's great xoxo

I was delighted with the dishes, great kimchi The atmosphere is great, all the elements match 🥳 Efficient and professional 😉😎 I recommend

A unique atmosphere 👌🏻 Very nice service 👍🏻 Delicious food 🤤

Super great Korean restaurant in Mitte. Very friendly service and top quality food.

First time in a Korean restaurant and .. i like it !!! A bit small place but great food and service ! Only one suggestion ... may attention to your clothes, end of dinner and after a bbq on the table .. you will absorb most of smell. I will come back for sure !!!

The bibimbap is so good here. Very fast service and chill atmos. The burger is good too, but bibimbap is really authentic!

Delicious barb-q. The sauces are really good.

2 stars for decent food, but the prices have gone up so much, the BBQ is 23 eur per person... Other dishes are not much cheaper. The food is ok, but not nearly worth it..

Delicious Bibimbap and Korean fried chicken. One star removed for the coconut and mango Panacotta which was disappointing.

It's a small place so if you go for lunch you better show up early! It does get a bit crowded but that's because the food is so good.

Tasty and delicious food. Slightly more expensive than the surrounding restaurants but quality has its price...

I had a pleasant experience at this Korean restaurant. Although the kimchi was not the best, the soup tasted delicious. Service was friendly at this cozy establishment. Also, the price was reasonable and I would definitely recommend this place to try something different. The overall experience was satisfactory.

Authentic food. High prices but top quality. I will gladly come again

I came to eat in on Friday evening, everything was great. Good food, cosy atmosphere. And especially the waitress are very friendly and help me enthusiastically, that's why I can choose the food that suits my taste and have a great experience here. I will invite more friends to come here on the nearest day.

The bulgogi was okay, but I ordered kimchi stew, but there was pork in the strange kimchi soup. The pork was delicious, but the soup was... Of the two menu items I ordered, the one I didn't order was the most delicious.

I ordered kimchi soup and beef bulgogi. Kimchi soup was too sweet and have a strong ginger taste (i think they mis-putting ginger instead of garlic??? How kimchi soup have a ginger taste ☹️). Kimbap was really dry they should put sesame oil. As a Korean, im pretty sure they are not run by Korean.

It's a super noisy restaurant with unfriendly staff. It seems to be a popular lunch spot. The food was ok. It would be better to use fresher rice and vegetables

The food was really good, can only recommend. We had 3 dishes, the yaki beef, the crispy chicken burger and the kimchi jiggae, and honestly I don't know which was better.

It is normal korean food. Avarage. We had bibimbap and Bbq. Bibimbaps beef was not good. I know better places in Berlin.

The most important thing first: The food tastes great! But the ambience is quite tiring at times, especially since the music is always a bit too loud. The mess with the menu is the most annoying thing. There is a day, evening and weekend ticket, sometimes with a price difference of €5-6. Some dishes are only available at certain times of the day. The menu design is therefore also irritating. Now that's complaining at a high level, because I'll continue to go there, just at a very specific time... because everything fits there;)

Friendly service and great barbecue! Definitely a place to recommend!

The atmosphere was relatively busy on Friday evening, but we still managed to get a table. The waitress was super nice and the food was a 10 out of 10. We'll definitely be back :)

Really delicious food and fairly priced. The service was friendly and relaxed. The only negative was that it was very loud in there

Their business lunch is such a steal! The fried chicken only has one type of sauce, was too spicy for me but I ate it all cuz it was very delicious

Quality/price one of the best Korean restaurants in Berlin. I definitely recommend the Korean bbq ( pork belly amazing) which is served with lettuce, rice, kimchi and a selection of sauces. Also noteworthy are the chicken wings and pancake ( I particularly enjoyed the one with beef). Friendly service, but can get careless if the restaurant gets too busy. However, given the low cost and how the meat is marinated to perfection, surely less than perfect service can be forgiven. Cost per person: €30 including drinks and leaving extremely full

Food was tasty, but definitely not the most authentic korean food you can get in Berlin.

Very very tasty. Courteous staff. You have to like sitting close together. But that makes it even more authentic. We will be back.
