Daimyo - Ramen & Fitnes Sushi Restaurant in Köln

Absolute favorite ramen place!! I can recommend it to everyone, the food is always great and everyone has to try the miso soup, very tasty. The staff is also very nice, and the restaurant is also very nicely decorated. Always happy to come back!!

I have been in Germany for almost a month and this restaurant suits my Chinese taste very well. The takoyaki and tonkotsu ramen are delicious😋

Sushi was very good. But the dining area doesn't seem so clean. There was still a leaf blower on two tables, which was then put away at some point as instructed

Very tasty food, but the service is sometimes very overwhelmed, mixes things up and doesn't have all the tables on screen, even though the number of tables is manageable. And even if it has nothing to do with the food, do you have to wait tables on Sunday evenings in sweatpants and have contact with guests like that? I find it somehow very sad and as Karl Lagerfeld said: "Anyone who leaves the house in sweatpants has lost control of their life..." But that's just my personal opinion. ;)

Super delicious ramen and bowls! Spicy Tonkatsu with Tantan was to die for! The home-made iced teas are also very popular recommend. The matcha ice cream wasn't to my taste, but still quite good. The ambience looks nicer in the photos than it actually is. Absolutely recommended because of the delicious food.

Great staff, very friendly. Ramen was delicious, and sushi was super tasty. It's very nice how everything is decorated, too. Top!

Friendly & quick service, extensive menu, fair prices / large portions. Reservations are recommended.

Had the ramen, one miso and one tonkotsu, each with toppings. It almost doesn't get any better. Only recommended.

Super tasty food at a good price and nice staff!

We had ramen, spring rolls, takoyaki and fried chicken. Very, very tasty and a definite recommendation!

Super delicious food and lemonades (highly recommended). The preparation was also very quick. We'd love to come back.

We had super tasty, slightly spicy ramen, big recommendation and the homemade lemonade was really tasty

Sweet and authentic atmosphere. Great selection of pokebowls, sushi and ramen. Good taste.

Good food, nice staff and great prices. Highly recommended

NO CREDIT CARDS. Do not be fooled by the credit card terminals, they only take German debit cards or cash. The servers working the night I went seemingly fought over who would have to serve me (since I don’t speak German and they both had poor English.) I offered to use Google Translate to make it easier for everyone, but they weren’t having it. I am accustomed to the differences in restaurant culture between Germany and the US, with German servers not checking on you every 10 minutes. They checked on the German speaking tables to my left and right but would ignore my eye contact and my small waves. It made the mediocre food that much more disappointing.

delicious ramen, we are very happy with our experience at this restaurant

Super authentic and delicious food, portion sizes were optimal for us, nice atmosphere. recommended to everyone

I think the restaurant is wonderful. I recommend everyone to visit the restaurant. The food tastes enchantingly good.

The best sushi I've eaten in my life. The food is extremely high quality. Everything was freshly prepared and was convincing. There are also many options for vegetarians and vegans. The food was beautifully prepared and all the staff were very friendly. All in all a great experience. We'll definitely be back!

My first time eating Japanese in Cologne. It was cozy and very tasty.

Nice small cosy place with delicious ramen!

Daimyo is a really good sushi restaurant. We recently dined here and ordered both sushi and main courses. It was delicious! Prices are reasonable, service is good. I can recommend this restaurant.

Tasty and reasonably priced food. The plate is also picturesque for all the insta foodies out there. 🍣 I highly recommend the crispy roll. They're delicious. The iced tea is also quite nice!

The food was delicious, the ambience outside was fine. Only the service was a bit slow and seemed disorientated. But we'll definitely come back!

Very fresh and beautifully prepared, you should especially try the special roll. The sushi and the sauce are well balanced

Unfortunately that was NOTHING, I don't think the ratings of 4.7 are correct 😂, sushi with no taste and very little fish and VERY small, everything else...really didn't look good and didn't taste good at all.

Delicious food, great service, large selection, juicy and tasty. Best Asian restaurant in Cologne.

Great service, quality food and the best sushi in Cologne

This store is a 100000/10 You won't find such delicious sushi anywhere in Cologne for these prices! Everything is always super fresh and delicious. The waiter and owner are super friendly. I really enjoy eating there. Every dish tastes good.

Very nice place to eat delicious food

Ramen was very tasty, will come again.

The restaurant offers delicious sushi, which we enjoy again and again. The owner is super friendly and creates a great atmosphere. The prices are affordable, especially for the high quality of the food. Added to this is the great location of the restaurant. A visit here is always a pleasure and we look forward to continuing to enjoy the delicious dishes!

Best restaurant I've ever been to. Quality top. Service top. Just perfect and worth a visit.

The food is actually good - but as a company I recommend giving the restaurant a wide berth! No credit cards are accepted - as far as is understandable, at least it is advertised at the entrance. If you try to pay in cash, you will only be presented with a consumption receipt. Despite electronic receipt, it takes a full 15 minutes (?) to print the receipt. This consumption receipt is worthless as a company - a blatantly obvious attempt to evade taxes. The whole thing was observed at three tables, so it's a common scam. The authorities should pay a visit to the store - as an honest taxpayer I feel ripped off!

I had the Classic Ramen with Chasu. It was the best ramen I've eaten so far :) Highly recommended.

Conditions not particularly good. Some of the food was just warmed up.

I just love it!! As always, the food tastes really delicious. I've been there many times now and haven't been disappointed once.

At the recommendation of a friend, we went there to eat ramen. We weren't disappointed. It was really delicious, and the sushi that my daughter ordered was delicious and presented so lovingly and beautifully. The homemade iced teas with Macha were also delicious and we will be back. Super nice service and great ambience. Top 👍🏽

Excellent ramen, hearty, large portion, tasty meat, tasty vegetables, were very satisfied with the dinner. Among the disadvantages - you can only pay with cash or EC card, which was somewhat inconvenient, because we had to go to the ATM, although we were already supposed to go. Unfortunately, there is no warning about this anywhere, and the situation had to be resolved after the fact.

Great sushi shop! I've been there several times and even as a "not necessarily a sushi lover" I like the sushi! The soups and bowls are also highly recommended :)

Nice service and super tasty ramen.

Time of day: Wednesday evening People: 2 Reserved?: Yes Staff: nice and helpful Price range: 40€/ person Review: Sushi was delicious. Not outstanding but fresh and good. Diverse dishes. Outdoor terrace available.

Simply my favorite restaurant when I feel like ramen, the price/performance ratio is amazing and I always feel so comfortable because of the great ambience.

Very kind servers, food was great, i had miso ramen, friend had a sushi roll Sex on the beach, also yuzu ice tee. All of it was great. Down to earth prices. I didnt notice on the pictures beforehand, but you can sit outside as well.

Delicious Japanese food! And at a good price. One of the best places in Cologne to sit down and eat.

One of the best ramen I've eaten was here. Very nice staff, super nice atmosphere. The restaurant is very nicely decorated. The food is fresh and very tasty. Will definitely come back. Would recommend it 100%

Very full and very tasty! Staff tried very hard, but since card payments are unfortunately only possible from 20 euros and only Girocard/Maestro is accepted and no credit card payments, I unfortunately have to deduct 2 stars! Hopefully this restaurant will arrive soon in 2010!

We were here for the first time and absolutely loved it! The service was incredibly nice and the sushi was truly the best thing we've eaten since. It was also very nicely presented. We will definitely be back soon!

There are nicer restaurants in the area. The vegetarian chili ramen soup was delicious, would like more vegetables in the future. The price was okay. The service was rather unmotivated, serving the tables not in the order in which people came, but rather in the order in which people sat near them. When he asked if we were ready and we said yes, he first flicked trash into our plates that he was carrying. That was uncomfortable. It was also unpleasant that the waiters repeatedly asked if we could pay in cash just because the owner preferred that. If you offer card payment, shouldn't you also accept guests who want to pay by card?

The food was excellent, the Tonkotsu ramen was outstanding and the sushi was also great.

Ramen was very tasty, service seemed bored but was attentive! The terrace, unfortunately, seemed completely uninspired…

The ramen is very good. The soup stock is very fresh and thick. The sushi tuna sashimi is very good.

Sushi is always an exciting challenge to try new things, but this restaurant definitely gets a 10/10. The service was very friendly. The food was served relatively quickly despite the restaurant being full. From the starters to the main course everything was perfect. The sushi rolls were particularly fresh and easy to digest, indicating that the ingredients are very fresh. A clear recommendation that you should definitely try!

We visited this great restaurant on a weekend trip to Cologne. As soon as we walked in we were impressed by the atmosphere it offers. The employees were very friendly. The menu offers something for every taste and has a selection of ramen, sushi and many other specialties. We found the prices on the menu to be more than reasonable. But when the food came we were thrilled. It is so lovingly prepared that you hardly dare to destroy the work of art in front of you. Once you've done it, you'll simply be amazed by the taste. Try it out!

Very tasty sushi rolls, especially the butterfly roll, beautifully painted and decorated.

Great atmosphere, good selection of dishes, very hospitable and very tasty food.!! We'd love to come back.

Very nicely decorated, staff always friendly and food very tasty. Highly recommended.

The sushi is very tasty. The staff very friendly. The ambience is also appealing.

I have visited the restaurant many times and from the moment I entered the stylishly decorated restaurant I felt welcome and in good hands. The ambience is stylish and appropriately decorated for a Japanese restaurant. You will be greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for a relaxing evening. Of particular note was the sushi, which was not only incredibly fresh but also artfully presented. Every bite was a little masterpiece. I was also impressed by the service in Daimyo. Our waitress was able to give us excellent advice on the choice of food and drinks and contributed significantly to our positive experience. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a relaxed dinner in Cologne. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!☺️

Very good ramen and the sushi is fantastic and tasty. I will definitely come again

Sushi quality was quite acceptable. I liked the fast and friendly service in a comfortable atmosphere. Prices were reasonable.

The recommendations for wine pairings are in a class of their own. The carefully selected wines harmonize perfectly with the Asian flavors.

The octopus balls are incredibly delicious! Ramen is also great here and the bowl was great too! The staff is great, very friendly! Mochi ice cream for dessert is also recommended :)

Food and drinks are very tasty. Aesthetically arranged. No problem, various dishes for 2 people. to order to share. Where not given, the quantity was increased from odd to even to enable “fair” sharing. Without this being a request from us. NeoKey implemented without any problems.

Very tasty food, friendly service and nice ambience. We recommend!

Rather decent restaurant which especially had the merit of reconciling me with the Sprite Fried sushi is good On the other hand, bring at least 23 different bank cards because they only accept things that I have never seen in my life. I ended up paying on PayPal

Great salmon combination, we ordered one too and it was great! The 4 is due to not accepting cards! We had a lot of work and a high cost to withdraw in cash!

Very rich. Very friendly waiters. I'll be back for sure

Food and service good. Ambience rather normal, lots of seats outside, relatively little space in the restaurant

Perfectly seasoned dishes that guarantee a harmonious taste experience.

I haven't eaten so well in a long time. I ordered the salmon with rice and a spinach salad. Only recommended.

A paradise for vegetarians! It's rare to find such a diverse and delicious selection. Flawless!

The food, the service and the atmosphere were great.

We went to this wonderful little restaurant on our first evening in Cologne. You can eat well in a nice atmosphere. The dishes were tasty and the service was good. We are happy to recommend it. ☺️

Top price/performance, friendly service and very tasty Poké Bowls.

An insider tip for anyone who loves authentic Asian cuisine. The dishes are artfully prepared and taste like a dream.

Perfect for business lunches! The quiet and stylish atmosphere paired with excellent service and delicious food is convincing across the board.

Visited few times and all times were great.

Very tasty food and very nice staff. We responded to every special request without seeming annoyed, even sushi variants that weren't on the menu were prepared for us. We will definitely come back!

I first saw this restaurant on Instagram. I immediately made an appointment with a friend of mine to go there. What did we order, they are super delicious! Although we waited about 30 minutes for our food after ordering. For the ambience, yes the restaurant is beautifully decorated and the house music is awesome. If we could maybe go there in the evening, it would be much nicer - because it only looks normal in the afternoon. Next time. I give the price-performance ratio 3 to 5.

Highly recommended! The staff is extremely friendly and the atmosphere invites you to linger. A culinary hotspot!

One of the best Ramen I've ever tried. Delicious gyozas too.

Very tasty sushi and are happy to accommodate special customer requests. The staff was also very friendly and the order was taken and delivered quickly. I would definitely come again!

Originally wanted to go to another restaurant. Due to incredibly bad weather conditions, we spontaneously decided to go to this restaurant. It was quite busy, so we had to wait a bit without a reservation. We decided on the ramen. These were definitely tasty, attractive and the portions were large. However, these are not in a particularly high league for me. Definitely recommended, but that special something is missing for me. The sensation, however, was the sushi. That was definitely the Champions League. Next to Sweet Sushi, the best sushi in town. I've only had the Dragon Roll and it was incredibly good. Next time we'll focus exclusively on sushi. The other inside-out rolls, special rolls and sashimi also looked delicious. See you next time.

The Daimyo is a small restaurant with Japanese cuisine, right on Friesenplatz. The ramen we ordered was very good, the yolk from the Toro egg was on point, the broth was extremely tasty and tasty, as was the chasu. The karage was authentic and delicious. The prices are OK. The staff is nice and the service is quick. We recommend. Unfortunately only cash payment possible.

We had ramens and couldn't stop thinking about how good sushi looked. The next table had sushi, and they told us how they could stop thinking how good our food looked. I'm definitely coming back here when I get the chance.

Every time I eat here I feel like I'm on vacation. The authentic flavors and the loving decor transport me straight to Japan. A short vacation for the soul and the palate.

My visit to Daimyo in Cologne was really disappointing. The miso ramen I was looking forward to was just plain bland and had little in common with what I consider real Japanese ramen to be. I've eaten at a few ramen shops before, but this really wasn't a highlight. The employees are quite disinterested. We felt like we were unwanted. This is not how I imagine a relaxed meal in a restaurant to be. The only thing that was okay was the prices. But let's be honest, if the food and service aren't right, even a fair price doesn't do much good. In short, I was pretty disappointed with the Daimyo. For anyone looking for delicious ramen and a nice place where you feel welcome - you'd better look further here.

really great！！ I really like the taste.

Unfortunately it's very tight inside, the tables are barely spaced apart.

My absolute favorite restaurant when it comes to Asian food. No matter whether ramen, sushi, poke bowl or anything else. Great price, super nice service - what more could you want?

Very tasty dishes, from curry to ramen to gyoza, everything is recommended. The shop is small, you can usually find a place at lunchtime, and if it's warm you can sit outside. Prices are okay and the portions are completely sufficient.

Very tasty ramen and amazing people working there. Totally recommend!

I particularly loved the ice cream for dessert - a refreshing surprise after an excellent main course.

Very tasty food, good service and fair prices!

The ramen is quite good, the soup base is delicious and thick.

Japanese Ramen, but little bit Chinese type of taste ~^

Klein und gemütlich,authentisches Ambiente und ebensolche Gerichte. Ein Ort, wo man noch klassisches Sushi (im Gegensatz zur trendenden California-Variante) in super Qualität und zu einem super Preis bekommt. Warme Gerichte (u. a. Ramen) sind ebenfalls köstlich. Alles in allem sehr zu empfehlen, ein Ort, an dem man gerne is(s)t.

Service is always great and the food from ramen to sushi and bowls is all great! We always like to come back.

I found best chicken teriyaki here👍❤️
