Crazy Kims in Berlin

Very disappointing experience. The food is expensive at 30€ per person and it lacks the quality to justify the price. All the 5 side dishes can be found in the main dishes and they're all just cheap pickled. The portions are tiny, everything's super salty, leaving you hungry and thirsty with edema. Definitely don't recommend.

Love the simplicity of the food and the taste— people saying it’s not korean food - jokers ! Kim is Korean… The restaurant aesthetic, atmosphere and passion of the owners is why i would go back again and again… go with a loved one or a friend you have lots to talk about with, cause yes it’s not fast food! However when it arrives you will enjoy knowing it’s been prepared with a lot of love! ;)) Support small business owners, this one is so authentic. 🥰

A great Korean restaurant with an authentic feel, great food like bulgogi and bibimbap and great wine with tasteful interior design. Friendly service and good value for money – highly recommended!

I can't feel it even in Korea The best taste of home-cooked food!! It's so delicious and the owner is kind. It was so delicious that I ate it all up.

I've eaten at many Korean restaurants during my business trips, but none have been this delicious! If you fancy Korean food, definitely go!!

Very friendly, family atmosphere. Authentic Korean cuisine.

After rave it is not the place to go. Expensive for the small portions.

Amazing food and service. Both me and my 17 year old son loved the place.

We were a group of 13 people, we all got the menu of 30 euro (soup, main, 5 sides) and got 13 menus to share. The soup was one spoon, the main was a little rice and a bit of meat/tofu, and there is no way that we got 5*13 sides. We all left hungry. The food was not bad, but certainly not that gourmet to justify that high price. The price should have been half

It might not seem exciting at first glance when you see the menu, but when the dishes arrive, it's like being transported to a whole new world! Everything on their menu is a solid 10/10. They don't miss a single dish!

Considering the taste and portion of the food, the place is ok but way too pricey. We left still a bit hungry. 4 star because the lady running the place was so nice and the vibe was good. If you decide to go, stick with the bulgogi and stay away from the kimchi jjigae. Good for people who have never been to Korea.

The place is beautiful and the atmosphere is artsy and soothing, not too crowded. The owner is a super nice Korean lady who takes time to inform you about the menu. The banchan and main dishes look great and are super tasty and authentic. I will come back for sure!

Nice restaurant with stylish interior design and interesting art placement especially on the walls on the way to the toilet. Could work well as a film set. The food itself was good, but I would have expected a little higher quality for the price. Unfortunately, bibimbap was also completely cold, although quite tasty. The room temperature was also a bit uncomfortably cool. Overall, a very stylish restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere.

Very very nice authentic food. Completely recommended!

Delicious, traditional food and good advice from the hostess. Unfortunately we weren't completely full and it was just too expensive.

Erstmal vorweg, diese Bewertung bezieht sich auf einen Besuch vor circa 10 Monaten um Neujahr rum. Das Essen (Hauptspeisen und Banchan) war sehr lecker. Auch der Koch und die (wie ich vermute) Besitzerin des Restaurants waren bei unserem Besuch sehr nett und nicht allzu überkorrekt drauf, was für eine lockere Stimmung im gemütlich eingerichteten Lokal sorgte. Jedoch muss ich mich leider den vorherigen Bewertungen anschließen, dass das Verhältnis von Preis und Portionsgröße definitiv verbesserungswürdig ist. Für eine Vierergruppe, darunter drei ausgewachsene Männer (die ja erfahrungsgemäß etwas mehr essen als Frauen), war die Auswahl der Banchan zwar breit, dafür die einzelnen Portionen aber definitiv viel zu klein - jeder konnte sich nur ein, zwei Häppchen aus den Schüsseln nehmen - und auch die Hauptspeisen waren trotz großer Schüsseln leider sehr spartanisch portioniert. Als wir ansprachen, dass wir alle nach der Mahlzeit noch hungrig waren, hat man uns aus Kulanz zumindest noch eine Schüssel Bibimbap zum Teilen serviert. Zusammen mit den doch schon gehobeneren Preisen hinterließ der Besuch bei uns allen leider einen negativen Beigeschmack. Ich verstehe natürlich, dass man für die gebotenen Speisen keine Imbisspreise berechnen kann, jedoch würde ich mir neben der durchaus gegebenen Qualität auch ein besseres Maß an Quantität wünschen. Auch eine zumindest um ein, zwei Speisen erweiterte Speisekarten mit etwas günstigeren Optionen würde da viel bewirken. Ich hoffe, dass sich seit unserem Besuch viel getan hat, dann wäre ich bei einem nächsten Besuch in Berlin wieder gewillt dem Crazy Kims eine zweite Chance zu geben. Denn das Potential ist da.

This place is the real Korean dining experience. A set menu of multiple small dishes including pickles and kimchi, little bites, a broth and a main dish of your choice. For €30 it is well worth it. Everything was delicious and very satisfying.

Super leckere Rippchen und die nette Besitzerin (?) ist sicher gegangen, dass alle satt und zufrieden waren :) danke!

Halt leider nicht überzeugt. Der Service war leider nicht wirklich freundlich und bei kleinen Fragen wurde sehr pampig geantwortet. Das Menü für 30 Euro (kleine Suppe und Hauptspeise) war zwar Koreanisch im Traditionellen Sinn geschmacklich aber leider eher fad und nichts wirklich besonders.

The banchan spread is amazing. You don’t really get this much variety in other places. The food was also very tasty, but mind you there is no cook at the table experience. We did not make a reservation in advance and were able to get a seat but we arrived just when it was opening.

Ok wow. I cannot fathom how anyone can say that the food here is not good. I live since almost 2 years in Berlin and we go out quite a bit. But the food here is the best we had so far. WOW incredible experience

The food is as excellent and not too pricey for what we got. The table barely fit all the sides. The meat was tasty, there was a vegan main option too and even the rice tasted great. Service was very friendly and the kitchen staff delivered the dishes to our table. Would definitiv recommend it!

I really wanted to like this place but I was quite underwhelmed. For the high price I was expecting more, but the food was just ok, nothing special and too „adapted for German taste“. It didn’t taste like what I’ve tried in Korea :( Nothing was spicy and the portions were small. We got a big variety of banchan, which was nice, but being 4 people we only got a tiny bite of each thing. It’s probably more worth it to go alone or as a couple. Service was great though! I just wished the flavour was stronger and portions bigger.

To cut it short - we had an amazing experience with Crazy Kims! Apart of the excellent food, the service at the restaurant was remarkably thought of. When we arrived without a booking, it seemed that all of the tables outside were reserved, however, the team has let us sit there as we needed only an hour, which was enough before the next guests were supposed to arrive - in most of other Berlin places they would never let anyone do it. We were served quickly, and had a great opportunity to try nearly every banchan the restaurant makes. Within two menus for the fixed price of 30€, apart from the rice and the soup, 10 various banchans were provided, everything tasting homemade and hearty. (Also, it is a great possibly to be inspired if you are keen on trying to cook similar stuff at home.) When we have finished our dinner, the time was about when restaurant's team was having theirs. Surprisingly, we were lucky to try it as well - they had given us a small plate of their tteokbokki casserole they were sharing with each other, and this particular moment had melted my heart. It is very pleasant to feel like you are treated as a super valuable guest, when the staff is really concerned how much Korean food you would try at their place, and how much of their food culture you would absorb after the visit. Thank you so so much.

Really great banchan, the braised ribs were perfect.

I visited this place with my girlfriend, hoping for an enjoyable dining experience. Unfortunately, our visit was marred by mediocre food, high prices, and abysmal service. The overall atmosphere was further dampened by the perceived racism and rude behavior we encountered. Firstly, let's address the quality of the food. To put it simply, it was underwhelming. The dishes lacked the authentic flavors we were expecting from a Korean restaurant. The taste was bland, and the presentation was unremarkable. Considering the reputation of Korean cuisine, we had higher expectations and were disappointed by the lackluster offerings. Additionally, the prices were significantly higher than what we would have expected for the quality of food we received. The menu prices did not align with the taste or portion sizes. It felt like we were paying a premium for a subpar dining experience, which left us feeling dissatisfied and ripped off. The service we encountered during our visit was nothing short of appalling. From the moment we entered, we sensed an unwelcoming atmosphere. The staff, particularly a woman who served us, displayed rude behavior and an apparent lack of respect towards us. Not only did she interrupt my girlfriend while she was ordering, but her comments were often snide and dismissive. This continuous interruption and condescension ruined our dining experience and made us feel uncomfortable. Furthermore, we couldn't ignore the potential racial bias we felt during our visit. The comment asking if we were sure about sitting there and looking at the menu and prices beforehand, coupled with the woman's rude behavior, gave us the impression that we were being treated differently due to my ethnicity. Such treatment is unacceptable, and it tainted the entire experience. In conclusion, our visit to this Korean restaurant was a disappointment on multiple fronts. The mediocre food, inflated prices, and exceptionally poor service overshadowed any positive aspects that the establishment might have had. The perceived racism and consistent rudeness we encountered further exacerbated our dissatisfaction. Sadly, we cannot recommend this restaurant to others, as there are undoubtedly better options available that offer superior food, fair pricing, and respectful service.

I quite like the spread of banchan-s (side dishes) that they have, even though the portion is quite small, they’re all very flavourful. The main dishes that we got were kimchi jiggae and spicy stir fried pork, both were exceptionally delicious and the portion was adequate too. Overall, food was nice and service was very friendly, may be a tad pricey for some at €30/set menu with soup, sides and main course.

우와아아ㅏㅏㅏ 진짜 너무 맛있어요!!!!! 진짜 싹싹 긁어 먹었어요 오빠랑 유럽 여행 다니면서 제대로 먹은 첫 한식이였어요ㅠㅠ 사장님도 너무 친절하세요!!💕 밑반찬 리필도 해주셨어요🥹 밥도 한공기 더 먹음 ㅎㅎㅎ 베를린에 더 오래 있었다면 한 번 더 왔을 것 같아요 ㅠㅠ 베를린에서 한식 먹고 싶으시다면 여기로 오세요 😋

Sehr netter Service, authentisches Essen, aber Preis Leistung stimmt hier nicht. Die Karte war sehr klein, anders als auf den Fotos. Eine Homepage gab es leider nicht, sodass ich mich auf die Fotos hier bei Google verlassen habe. Wir wollten zb gerne BBQ essen, aber das gab es gar nicht. Wir haben 30€ pP für 1 Hauptspeise, 1 Suppe und Beilagen bezahlt. Das war vorgegeben. Wir gehen oft Koreanisch essen, aber hier fanden wir es für die Portionen, die man bekommen hat, einfach nicht gerechtfertigt. Ich hatte als Frau zum Schluss noch Hunger. Die Suppe war auch nur diese Miso Suppe, die man beim Sushi dazu bekommt. Mein Fleisch war trocken und zäh. Die Beilagen waren ganz lecker, aber alles in einem nicht den Preis wert. Und es war die ganze Zeit richtig kalt :( schade.

Muy rica comida… excelente servicio

Crazy Kim's is so gooooood! If you're looking to treat yourself to a korean feast to share with your friends this is a great place to go. Vast selection of side dishes served in the classic banchan style along with delicious mains and tasty cocktails..

Das Essen war lecker. Der Preis entspricht hier aber nicht der Qualität und auch nicht dem Geschmackserlebnis.

반찬 14가지 나오더군요.. 밑반찬 수는 매일 다를 수 있다고 생각은 됩니다. 정식 메뉴 30유로.. 갈비찜과 김치찌게를 메인으로 먹었는데.. 그냥 끝내줍니다. 집밥 따로 없습니다. 여하츤 한국 음식 생각 나시면 꼭 가세요. 먹다가 사진 찍었습니다.. 접시 거의 다 비웠습니다.ㅋㅋ

Was invited by Berlin friends to this restaurant. The food was delicious and the ambiance wonderful. I’d recommend it for anyone searching for this true Cusine!!! The owner was very kind and helpful. Can’t wait to return!!!

Amazing Korean food and the owner was very nice! During my week in Berlin, I went there 3 nights out of 7. Absolutely worth the visit, a big thank you for this lovely experience!

This place still has the real, raw Berlin vibe to it. I was so surprised I didn’t know it because we are often in this street to eat. The owner is this super sweet Korean lady who is very friendly. She doesn’t advertise the place she wants people to find out through recommendation. 🥺 I can definitely recommend this restaurant. I have had a wonderful evening there. What I loved was not just the food but the hospitality, the music selection and the characters that walked in throughout the evening. It has this artsy, genuine, humble vibe to it that 15 years ago made me move to Berlin and I think restaurants like this are rare. The Korean food was authentic and great, the ribs were super tender and delicious. The wine was very good. The price is fair and you can pay by EC card. We will definitely come back. ☺️

Tolles Essen und sehr freundliche Gastgeber. Kommen wieder

We came to Crazy Kims for dinner, lured by the positive reviews, but ended up leaving the restaurant very disheartened. Although the flavors of the food do taste like actual korean cuisine (something difficult to find in Berlin), 30€ for a closed menu with few banchan (korean pickled entrées, usually free… 🙄) and a small main dish and cold soup is not the kind of experience we were looking for. We waited 25 minutes for someone to take note of our order. Our food came 40min after, so in total we waited for an hour to eat pickled entrees, cold soup and a very small portion of bibimbap (don’t be fooled by the gigantic bowl it’s served in. Also, for a 15€ bibimbap… is not even served on a hot stone bowl, or has any signs of nurungji. And again, the food was cold, so it had probably been sitting on the counter for a long while). This is a bit disappointing. And makes no sense considering most of these dishes are prepared beforehand. Also, people that had arrived later, had their food served before us. When we were 40 minutes into waiting, we looked at the owner concerned, she quickly went into the kitchen, laughed, and brought us our cold food. Not one single apology was given. If you are korean yourself, or enjoy korean food culture, all of this will probably make no sense to you. The flavors were good, but overall, this is not an acceptable experience for the price paid. The place seems to be popular amongst wealthy hipsters, so obviously this formula is working for them. As a summary: expensive banchan, small portions, absurd waiting time, VERY expensive drinks, noisy environment and at least, tasty flavours. Unfortunately, I can’t recommend this place… 😓 EDIT: Wow… I am afraid you are mistaking us for other costumers… as we didn’t change seats at all, first off. We simply don’t feel like waiting 1h for cold soup, bibimbap and cold pork, and paying a 70€ bill for this experience, so obviously we won’t come back. Furthermore, we didn’t even complain to you at the restaurant or bother you, we just stood there, trying to make eye contact with the staff, being polite and hoping to finally get our food after the hour… (I guess that’s being picky here.) The prices fit perfectly within our range, don’t worry, it’s the value for money we’re not happy with. I apologize if saying charging for banchan is not authentic “korean restaurant culture” offended you, it wasn’t my intention. Nevertheless, this response to a valid review from an actual client who’s raising some very valid concerns about their experiences at your business, seems very unprofessional. As unprofessional as giggling around with some costumers, while others wait for an hour for their food. I wish that instead of this super weird answer, you would have just, barely apologized that day after having us wait for an hour for food that had been sitting on the counter for a while… but alas, that didn’t happen. You too have a good authentic day…

Very nice food, but had to wait 1h10’ for it and it was fairly cold.

Wir hatten etwa 1.5 Stunden vorher reserviert und waren sehr froh am Samstag noch einen Tisch für 5 zu bekommen. Im Restaurant selbst wurden wir darauf hingewiesen, dass man bei Reservierungen verpflichtet sei das Menü zu nehmen. Dies fanden wir etwas schwierig, weil nicht alle von uns großen Hunger hatten. Jedoch hat die sehr freundliche Bedienung (Chefin?) für uns eine Ausnahme gemacht. Es gab jedoch kein Barbeque sondern statt des Menüs nur eine einzige Alternative. Alles in allem war aber alles sehr lecker und wir hatten einen guten Abend. Wir hätten auch gerne mehr Getränke bestellt, jedoch wurden wir keinmal gefragt ob es noch etwas sein darf. Trotzdem klare Weiterempfehlung

Unfortunately not very overwhelming. The taste was fate and the prices are too high for the quality and amount of food you get. There are other Korean places that offer way better taste, variety and prices. On top of that I don't like if restaurant don't serve tap water to the additional drinks we also ordered.

출장 땜에 3주간 독일에 있는 내내 한국음식이 그리워 죽는 줄 알았습니다.. ^.ㅠ 나름 잘 알려진 한식집에 가도 제가 아는 그 맛이 아니라서(밍밍..) 넘 슬펐는데 여기서 얼큰한 김치찌개 수혈(?) 받고 기운 되찾았어요. 10분도 안 되어서 밥 한 그릇 뚝딱했네요. 2명이 같이 왔다고 반찬도 고루 주시고 감사했습니다. 갈비찜도 맛있지만 김치찌개 정말 강추합니닷 한식 그리운 분들 오셔요

Wirklich sehr leckeres, traditionelles Essen und ein schön gestylter Innenbereich. Die Gastgeberin ist sehr sympathisch und nett, allerdings auch ein kleines bisschen „spleenig“ im Umgang mit Gästen (empfindliche Gemüter könnten das unter Umständen missverstehen). Das festgelegte Menü bietet einige unterschiedliche Hauptspeisen (vegetarische und vegane Optionen verfügbar), die jeweils mit einer ganzen Reihe kleiner side dishes serviert werden. Davon abgesehen war nur 1 a la carte-Option vorhanden. Insgesamt ist das Lokal definitiv (mindestens) einen Besuch wert

Easily one of the best Korean restaurants in Berlin. The main was beautifully prepared but the banchan were the real star of the show. They really showcase the diversity of Korean cuisine and surpass anything else I’ve had elsewhere. I haven’t made it back to Korean since I visited and places like this make that ok.

Outstanding Korean, the best one in town. MUST GO!!!! Every single dish is amazing, the owner is incredibly sweet, the indoor space is very creatively decorated but also the outdoor tables are very nice, with a nice breeze and overlooking a very nice street.

Hallo, Aufgrund der guten Bewertungen haben wir dieses Restaurant ausprobiert. Leider können wir diese nach unserem Besuch nicht bestätigen. Wir haben uns sehr unfreundlich behandelt und nicht wilkommen gefühlt. Das Essen war in in Ordung und schien sehr frisch und qualitativ zu sein, allerdings für mich persönlich das Geld nicht wert. Vielleicht haben wir einen schlechten Tag erwischt, aber ich würde dieses Restaurant trotzdem nicht weiterempfehlen, denn man sollte jeden Gast respektvoll behandeln.

Selten so schönes Personal gesehen. Noch dazu ist das Essen schön serviert und schmeckt! Einfach schön. Mensch darf dort verweilen.

Not great but ok. Nice presentation but lack of taste.

독일 20 년 살면서 이런 경험은 처음 이네요 . 예약을 하고 밖에 있는 자리 부탁하고 일부러 먼길에서 독일 친구랑 갔는데 오자말자 독일 친구가 기분 나쁘다고. 이유는 자리도 많았어 여기 테이블에 안자도 되냐고 물어봤는데 여기 여 사장님인지는 모르겠지만 그자리는 단골 손님들만 안는 자리라고 하시더라고요 . 처음에는 그려는니 넘어 갈려고 했는데 듣고 보니 이건 또 뭐지 라는 생각 . 그리고 메뉴 보니깐 한상에 30 유로 인데 둘명 이면 기본 60 유로 거기에 마실것 까지 시키면 뭐 70 에서 80 유로 정도 넘는 다는 말인데 . 그럼 베를린 에서 고급 식당이나 마찬 가지인데 이런 식으로 손님을 대응 한다는게 . 첫 손님은 손님들은 손님이 아닌가 이렇게 장사 하려면 그냥 단골로만 장사 하시던지 애써 찾아간 사람들 열봤게 하지말고 . 아무리 음식이 맛있던 없던 간에 이렇게 차별 하는 한국 식당은 처음 인듯 .

We ate here some time back and found the food really delicious, seemed fresh and well prepared. The service was good too and the beers on tap fitted perfect with the spiciness of the dishes.

Crazy Kim's serves _Real_ Korean food. This is Korean food as it is in Korea. I lived in South Korea for three years, my partner is South Korean, and honestly this is the best Korean food in Berlin. When you order the Hanjeongsik you are ordering a main and a number of side dishes, each a small amount of delicious food. You leave full of deliciousness. I will be dreaming of Korean food tonight.

Sehr schmackhaftes Essen. Super freundlicher Service. Top Empfehlung für Liebhaber der asiatischen Küche.

Lovely owner and coworkers, amazing food and very authentic ✨😍

Best Korean restaurant in the city! Homey vibes and the team is beyond amazing 🤍

Закрылись за полчаса и ничего не дали поесть. Очень плохо

Sehr gutes und vielseitiges koreanisches Essen, sehr freundliches Personal. Die Hygieneregeln werden vorbildlich eingehalten.

This is the best Korean restaurant in Berlin.

Instead of ordering from the menu listen to the ladies recommendations she will guide you through everything perfectly !!! The food was really tasty :))) will deffo recommend for a Korean food experience!!!

Very very friendly staff, and nice location with a beautiful hall. The food is very good, felt « homemade », left a wonderful taste in my mouth. If I can say just one thing, it feels a bit overpriced for Berlin…

sehr authentisches Essen und das Personal war super nett

I'm no expert when it comes to Korean food, but Crazy Kim's is wonderful! The interior is extremely cozy and well designed. The food was exceptional and the wait staff are super friendly. A bit more expensive than other Berlin Korean favorites (e.g. yam yam or kimchi princess), but the dining experience is more enjoyable.

Love the food here! Especially the changing menus, homemade food, details as well as the people working there! If you’re lucky, try the slow cooked beef meat stew!

Leckeres Essen super Bedienung und tole Auswahl an Getränken. Preis-Leistung Passt!

I chose my favorite main dish, Kimchi-Jjigae (김치찌개) in the menu and it came with a lot of side dishes. All of the dishes were delicious, the price is absolutely worth it and the owner is very nice and welcoming. I‘d highly recommend to try their menu and I‘m already looking forward to my next visit! 🧡

Super lecker! Guter authentischer Koreaner, wo offensichtlich viel Wert auf Qualität gesetzt wird. Auch die Atmosphäre ist warm und das Interieur liebevoll einladend. Sehr süße Besitzerin und ein insgesamt sehr angenehmer Abend

I love this place. Food is very authentic and delicious and also the restaurant design is very unique and special. Lovely owner and great service ❤️ thank you!

Delicious Korean food. The pictures show the Korean BBQ for two. Very tasty. The staff is friendly and attentive.

wir hatten gestern einen sehr netten abend - authentisches (soweit wir das beurteilen können) koreanisches essen - super wein - und nette atmosphäre - die portionsgrößen waren für uns genau richtig - ich fand auch die einrichtung des restaurants gelungen - die preise sind angemessen, vor allem wenn man davon ausgeht, dass die vielen kleinen gerichte alle frisch und qualitativ hochwertig waren

Had a little celebratory dinner here. So delicious! We got a dish of tender, long-cooked short ribs along with a spicy kimchi & tofu soup, both of which came with an exciting assortment of Banchan dishes. Everything was delightful. The tofu tasted especially fresh. Would definitely go back!

Lovely staff, good service and food. Absolutely mind blowing dessert, green tea-icecream with cinnamon on top and strawberries on the side - WOW! Loved it. Going back for that icecream and will then try their BBQ, looked very good.

das essen ist ganz ok, leider preis leistungs mäßig überteuert. kann man hingehen, muss man aber nicht. service 4 sterne, gehe aber eher zum essen ins restaurant

Such a nice service! Super great place.

Die Bedienung war nicht sehr auskunftsfreudig, aber das Essen war ein Traum und sehr authentisch. Schönes Ambiente.

We had a lovely evening yesterday at crazy kims. The food was delicious and the service was outstanding. Highly recommend this place.

Sehr leckeres Essen. Mit sehr hilfsbereitem Personal.

Sehr leckeres Essen mit guter Beratung und sehr netten Service.

메인은 크게 특별하다고 못 느꼈는데 밑반찬이 특히 맛깔남 잘 먹어서 사장님이 밑반찬 리필까지 해주심ㅎ 외국에서 친절하게 맛있는 한국음식 파는 식당들 다 잘됐으면...!

Bei Maps steht geöffnet - ist aber zu. Nice.

Sehr lecker, auch von meiner Koreanischen Freundin bestätigt!

Essen war sehr lecker aber auch sehr teuer wen man zu dritt isst und gesättigt werden will also jeder eine Hauptspeise kommt man fast mit 90 euro raus(4 Getränke dazu) , der teuerste koreaner in der Gegend, Bedienung nezt

Good place, not extraordinary. Too much sauce instead of use less and give you extra, in case you need more. Pancake flavourless, we left half. Friendly personnel and good service.

One of the challenges my family has in moving to a new city is finding decent Korean food. Problem solved. The lighting is intimate and contributes to a bohemian ambiance when paired with the background jazz or soulful funk music, depending on the day of the week. The service is genuine and friendly - the kind of feeling you get that comes with a family-run restaurant who takes pride in their venture. The food is spot on - they get the basics perfectly without being pretentious. Fresh ingredients, house-made everything, even the dumplings and kimchi. Feels like home, only cooler and tastier. ^-^

Tasty food and a great pop up store in the restaurant!

Sehr gemütliche Atmosphäre, leckeres Essen und freundliches Personal ;)

It was almost empty when we came there, so was a bit uncertain about if it's worth it. But it definitely was. The staff is great and friendly, the interior is nice and warm. And the food, the food was really good.

In Kreuzberg schließen gelegentlich Restaurants. Am gleichen Ort öffnet dann etwas Anderes. So ist es manchmal nicht verwunderlich, wenn man in seinem eigenen Kiez mal wieder etwas Neues entdeckt. Das Crazy Kims muss hier in diesem Eckladen seit etwas mehr als ein Jahr residieren. Wir hatten es bisher übersehen, aber ein Besuch lohnt allemal. Das Restaurant ist in zwei Gasträume unterteilt. Im ersten Raum befindet sich auch ein größerer Bartresen. Insgesamt strahlen die schönen warmen Brauntönen eine angenehme Behaglichkeit aus. Die Tische sind nicht zu eng gestellt und an den Wänden, sind einige Kunstwerke zu bewundern. Insbesondere im Flur zur Toilette hängt eine recht ansehnliche Bildergalerie. Die Bilder sollen von der Betreiberin gemalt worden sein. Insgesamt findet sich hier kein Kitsch, wie sonst in anderen asiatischen Restaurants. Und dann wird noch aus dem Soundsystem eine angenehme jazzige Musik geboten. Schon das alleine lässt auf einen „feingeistigen und kulturvollen“ Restaurantbetrieb schließen. Der Service, wie könnte es auch anders bei einem asiatischen Restaurant sein, ist sehr freundlich und schnell, ohne aufdringlich zu wirken. Man kann sich auch gern von der Servicekraft die einzelnen Speisen erklären lassen. Und trotzdem wird einiges etwas ungewohnt, ja überraschend dann an den Tisch gebracht. Unbedingt sollte man die 4 Maultaschen (Gunmandu) für 7,5€ probieren. Nun, Maultaschen haben es ja auch in die deutsche Küche geschafft, aber als der Teller kam, suchten wir die darauf erst einmal vergeblich. Die 4 gedämpften Gunmandu waren unter einem dünnen und sehr krossen Fladen (vermutlich Ei/Teig/Kräuter) versteckt, der in kleinere Chips gebrochen und mit der säuerlichen Sauce beträufelt, sehr gut mit der Teigware harmonierte. Unsere Hauptgänge waren: Dödjigogi Bulgogi für 18,50€ sind dünne und scharf gewürzte Scheiben Schweinebauch vom Lavasteingrill. Der hatte eine angenehme rauchige Note und ist gut mariniert auf ein Zwiebel/Lauchgemüse gelegt. Hier fand ich allerdings den Preis im Vergleich zu den anderen Speisen etwas zu hoch gegriffen. Gogi Udong für 9,00€ ist eine Nudelsuppe mit Schweinefleisch. Die im Vergleich zu chinesischen/thailändischen/vietnamesischen Suppen hier etwas dickeren und erst einmal gewöhnungsbedürftigen Nudeln schwammen in einer gut gemachten Fleisch-/Knochen-Bouillon, die mit feinen Gemüsestiften angereichert war. Als ungewöhnlicher Hit, wird noch ein komplettes Ei dazu gereicht, das unter die Brühe gerührt werden soll. Trotz der ausreichend vorhandenen Nudeln sollte man zur Suppe noch Gim für 3,50€ dazu bestellen. Das sind geröstete Algenblättchen, in die man dunklen aromatisch verfeinerten Reis wickelt und zur Suppe dazu nimmt. Ssammu für 3,00€ sind süßsauer eingelegte Rettichscheiben. Die sind schön knackig, aber dann trotz der Marinade etwas einfach im Geschmack. Dagegen ist der Oimutschim, ein scharfer Gurkensalat, für 3,5€ sehr würzig und verträglich scharf angerichtet. Das Preis<>Leistungsverhältnis ist in Anbetracht der guten Qualität und auch wegen der investierten Handarbeit bei einigen Speisen, noch angemessen. Lediglich bei den Fleischgerichten, die zwischen 18€ und 21,5€ kosten, finde ich eine leichte Überteuerung. Und warum eine 0,75er Flasche Wasser mit 6,5€ (etwa ein 5-Faches des Einkaufspreises) auf der Rechnung stehen muss und damit 1,7€ mehr als ein Glas Wein (0,2l) kostet, bleibt mir unklar. Mit 4 Vorspeisen und 2 Hautgängen, sowie Wasser und 2 Glas Wein, liegt man knapp über 60€. Mein Fazit ist: Ein Besuch lohnt sich, da gute Qualität aus der Küche geboten wird und ein sehr guter Service an den Tisch kommt. Und höllisch scharfe Speisen, die es teilweise bei anderen Koreanern gibt, werden hier nicht gereicht. Wer es schärfer mag, sollte das wohl vorher der Küche aufgeben.

Stimmiges Ambiente, warme Farben, Gil Scott Heron im Hintergrund, wenig los, sehr entspannte Stimmung, Service freundlich & english, vielleicht n Tick zu sehr im "idle mode". Das wichtigste: sehr leckeres Essen, 3 Vorspeisen (Favorit der Tintenfischsalat), 2 Hauptgerichte für 2, danach pappsatt und glücklich. Definitiv kein Schnäppchen, aber das Geld wert.

Schön leer. Die Bedienung war freundlich, bzw. wie von asiatischen Restaurants gewohnt. Das Essen ist qualitativ gut aber nicht hervorragend und meiner Meinung nach etwa 30% zu teuer und gefühlt 50% zu wenig. Das Restaurant ist groß aber langweilig eingerichtet. Die Toiletten sind sauber. Fazit - teures Mittelmaß und man zahlt vor allem für viel Platz und wenig Leute drum herum

Sehr freundlicher Service, man wird hier herzlich von der Chefin des Hauses empfangen und zum Tisch geleitet. Eine Reservierung ist zu empfehlen, denn das die Küche exzellente Qualität liefert hat sich herum gesprochen. Herausragend sind die frische Qualität der Fischprodukte wie Sashimi, Thunfisch in Sesam und frischer Lachs. Abgerundet wird der kurzweilige Abend durch den perfekten sehr aufmerksamen Service und eine gut ausbalancierte Weinbegleitung. Neben den Fischspezialitäten überzeugt auch die asiatische Zubereitung des Rinderfilets, serviert mit frischen Salaten. Köstliche Himbeer- und Schokotorte rundete den genussvollen Abend ab.

Bester Koreaner Berlins! Hochwertiges Essen, schoenes Ambiente, Service koennte noch verbessert werden. Preise top! Qualität hat seinen Preis und das zurecht! Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Nice quite place. Food taste good. For my opinion overpriced.

Warmes Licht, scharfe Speisen, schön und lecker, James Braun in Hintergrund, Korean Cousine mal ganz anders und ganz toll!

Kein Billig-Koreaner! Perfektes Essen und super Ambiente!

Tolles Essen und original! Ein bisschen teuer vielleicht.

Great Korean food, even if the service could be quicker.

맛있어요. 가격이 좀 세지만 양이 많아요. 김치찌개 육개장 맥주0.5두잔0.3두잔. 닭꼬치해서 50유로 나왔어요~~

Very friendly and the food is excellent!

가격이 말도 안 되게 비쌈..김밥 한 줄에 5유로 넘어가는 건 여기서 처음 본 것 같음. 것도 15유로 ㅡ.ㅡ 금을 발라놓은 것도 아니고, 돈 많으다면 억지로 말리지는 않겠지만, 적어도 독일 친구들에게 추천할 식당은 아닌듯.

여기는 진짜... 진또배기다... 유럽 어딜가도 이 맛을 못찾음 육계장은 한국꺼보다 맛남! 반찬은 믿고가고 닉네임 믿고 가시길 ㅇㅇㅇ 가격은 약간 있지만 이맛이면 걍 냄 ㅇㅇ

Literally crazy. It was so delicious that I ate two. The food here is more than you can imagine. Very good. It is the best Korean restaurant in Europe.I ate all the food.
