Ginza Japanese Kitchen in Hamburg

The sushi was delicious. A bit pricey, but the food was really good. The drinks could be a little cheaper. The service was quick and attentive.

Amazing sushi 🍣 I was there with my 12-year-old son, he said it was by far the best sushi he had ever eaten.

Visited this restaurant in 2024. Ramen was the best by far that I‘ve had in Hamburg. Soup was authentic. Noodles were made just right. Although the restaurant was small, but definitely worth the visit.

A charming, centrally located restaurant with delicious food. We had chicken ramen and a salmon bowl, both of which were very tasty. Service was super fast and the prices were good. The service was very friendly. They could add a toilet seat and maybe install a fixed faucet in the restroom.

Small but excellent restaurant in Japanese style 🤗 Fresh sushi 🍣 and other Asian delicacies that impress not only visually but also in taste. Very good value for money, absolutely fair, and very friendly service. We'll definitely be back.

Excellent sushi. Great staff. I highly recommend it.

Hi, we had delicious sushi, a real insider tip! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A nice cozy place for japanese food. Simple but tasty cuisine and pretty fast service. We ordered and got out food in 10 min.

Was really looking forward to eating here, had selected and come across especially. Got there and there’s a sign on the door saying cash or German cards only. We walked to the closest 4 cash machines on google maps; one you needed a bank card to open, one was behind construction barriers, one out of order and one didn’t exist. Very frustrating, just pass on the cost to overseas cards if needed.

The ramen was truly awful. The broth tasted like nothing, and they used spaghetti instead of Japanese noodles. I have no idea how this place has 4.7 stars. Maybe the sushi is better. But definitely avoid the ramen.

I'm absolutely thrilled. I've eaten here twice, and both times it was exactly as I'd imagined. The staff was very attentive and friendly. Great atmosphere :)

My tonkotsu ramen with full toppings was a bit different from what I've had at other restaurants. Especially with even more fresh ingredients. Plus, they had Asahi beer on tap, not just bottled Kirin like so often. Very good.

Excellent cuisine, polite, attentive staff, fast service

My noodle soup was generally okay. Unfortunately, I didn't like the chicken sticks. Their consistency was also odd. Overall, though, it was okay. The other customers' food looked better, especially the sushi. Maybe I was just a little unlucky. The service was very friendly and attentive.

Our new favorite restaurant in Hamburg! Very friendly staff and fast service. The food was delicious, top-notch sushi, and the ramen was also amazing! We'll be back!

Sweet and friendly service. The food was ok - but not more. We were a little disappointed. The beer was also disappointing - we had hoped for more. Toilets ok - not more.

The food was just okay. The broth from the ramen didn’t taste so much. The sushi was also okay only. There are many ramen places in Hamburg which are much better.

The two of us went for dinner and had a pleasant evening. Unfortunately, we had to wait a bit longer for the food, but it was definitely worth it! The sushi was very fresh and the creations were something completely different! I highly recommend the sushi with beef – soooo delicious! Because of the slightly longer wait, we got a free dessert – thank you so much! The atmosphere is cozy, and the manageable number of tables makes it easy to have a good conversation! We would come back :-)

The sushi was super delicious and the fish was very fresh, really top-notch! The ramen tasted okay, albeit a bit inauthentic and a bit watery. I'd especially like to highlight the service: very friendly and simply sweet. The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting; you immediately feel at home. We'll definitely be back – thank you! 🙏

We had a great night at this restaurant. Delicious freshly made sushi’s, great serving, friendly staff. Definitely coming back if I am around Hamburg City

Amazingg food! Do reccomond to have cash with youu!

As big Japan fans, we went to your place last night for ramen and sushi. It was fantastic. Highly recommended for anyone who loves authentic Japanese cuisine.

The spicy Thai curry ramen is an absolute dream. Hearty, incredibly delicious, and a generous portion. The homemade iced teas and drinks are also highly recommended – truly fresh. The service is attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is small but extremely cozy. There are only a few spots away from the table, such as the windowsill, that could use a good dusting or cleaning every now and then.

Delicious food, friendly service, and pleasant atmosphere, highly recommended.😊😊

A wonderful little restaurant, tucked away down a flight of stairs. It made me feel a bit like I was sitting in a movie called "Midnight Diner - Tokyo Stories." Everyone was very friendly and the food was good value for money.

We had ramen and bowls, and the food was delicious and not too salty. We'd love to come back!

I enjoy sushi and eat it often, but the sushi here really blew me away. They also have plenty of vegetarian and vegan dishes. The ambiance is lovely and the service is excellent. I'll definitely come back next time I'm in Hamburg.

Very tasty food and friendly service.

Loved the atmosphere and the vibe, Mama Roll and Unagi roll were delicious, but Spicy Crunch roll (the one the left on my photo) was kinda plain.

Fantastic food, good prices. Service was excellent. Very friendly, funny, and attentive Japanese.

Great food, very fast service and very nice service:)

Wonderful sushi. Super delicious. Unfortunately located in the basement, but they also have a terrace. I'd love to go back.

So far we haven‘t had better Ramen in Hamburg. The sushi is phenomenal! Very fresh and delicious.

Delicious, good, cozy, order brought quickly... I recommend🍻👌👍

Very tasty food, good cocktails, it's super small inside but you can also sit outside.

The food was mediocre at exorbitant prices, and unfortunately, the service also left much to be desired. Wait times stretched to hours...

We were there in the evening with about 15 people and waited over an hour for our food. The sushi was far too small for the price and comparatively very expensive. Some of the appetizers were completely forgotten. The taste was also rather subpar.

Tonkotsu was really good, not salty which is a big problem I usually have with other ramens. The spinach in it was bitter though

A small and authentic restaurant serving Japanese cuisine, located on the lower ground floor, with a few additional tables across the street. A bit cramped inside, but extremely cozy. A well-organized and friendly team, with very quick food preparation. High-quality service. We had sushi, which was excellently prepared and very tasty. If you like whiskey, they serve Japanese Hibiki, very mild and highly recommended, as is a visit to this restaurant overall.

Ok not great just and a little expensive

Always happy to come back. Very tasty ramen.

Second time eating here. I ordered the Miso Ramen with full toppings. Very yummy! They only gave me half an egg, though smh 😔

Delicious food, very friendly and fast service. Great outdoor seating. Definitely recommended!

My first Chinese review of a burger. If you've been to Japan, you'll probably know this isn't authentic the moment you walk in. The staff clearly lacks Japanese flair (no makeup, no "Irashyaima"). They're also direct and loud when they speak. The chicken was okay, but it was fried a bit too long, so it was overcooked and a bit burnt. The tonkotsu ramen broth was too watery, and the square noodles didn't feel like real ramen. They even added something resembling spinach (I've never seen that in Japan). The soft-boiled egg wasn't sweet enough, leaving a somewhat complex experience. I speak a little Vietnamese, so I'm 99% sure the staff was speaking Vietnamese. I don't know why this place has such high reviews (you can search "Japan" to see another Japanese review; it's quite amusing, haha). All in all, I wouldn't recommend it unless you're here for the atmosphere (though the music isn't even in Japanese). Also, the fact they don't accept credit cards is a bit of a hassle.

We were very pleasantly surprised. Ginza is an insider tip in Hamburg. The food was incredibly good, and the atmosphere was very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed it so much that we went there three times. When we're back in Hamburg, Ginza will be our first stop. By the way...I've never had better kimchi. We'd love to come back!

Nice food and nice service, nothing special. They are not giving you a reason to go back. Only cache which is not tourists friendly.

Delicious ramen, very authentic

Loved the food and people work there

As miso and sashimi friends we were completely satisfied, especially with the selection and quality of the fish, warm sake at the end, tip top

I went to this Japanese restaurant for lunch today, and it was simply lovely. I received a friendly greeting as soon as I walked in, and the service was super attentive and warm the whole time. You feel immediately welcome. The ambiance fits perfectly with the image of a Japanese restaurant without seeming kitschy. Everything feels harmonious and very pleasant, so you want to take your time and enjoy it. The absolute highlight was the ramen. So incredibly delicious, full of flavor, and seasoned just right. I would have loved to have a second helping right away. A definite recommendation for me. I'll definitely be back.

Friendly service, fair prices and very tasty food ✌🏻

Discovered by chance, chose lunch, food, service, and atmosphere were great! We'll be back.

Excellent food and very friendly and attentive shopkeeper.

Delicious sushi. Good rice, which is so important.

Rating: ★★★★★ An absolute hit! We were completely thrilled with the restaurant. The staff was super friendly, attentive, and very accommodating – you feel welcome from the very first minute. The food? A solid 11 out of 10! We had salmon sushi, beef ramen, and a veggie bowl – everything was incredibly fresh, perfectly seasoned, and prepared with great attention to detail. Every bite was a delight! We will definitely be back. A clear recommendation for anyone who wants to experience authentic Japanese cuisine at the highest level.

Wow—that was my first impression, and it was completely confirmed. The food was simply perfect. Everything was fresh, super tasty, and really well-made—I haven't had better food in Hamburg yet. The atmosphere was calm and relaxed, you could really unwind. And the staff? Extremely friendly and attentive, without being intrusive.

Very tasty ramen and sushi – admittedly, it's not the cheapest place, but the food was delicious (I've only been there five times and I'd love to come back). It would be great if I could pay by credit card in the future :)

Great service! The food was very, very tasty. Highly recommended.

This is the second time we came to this restaurant and it was again absolutely delicious! During our first visit, we had tried their bowls and this time it was sushi with kim chi salad. Everything we had was great and especially kim chi was the best we have ever had. Definitely recommended!

Great service, delicious food. I had a bowl, the sushi was super tasty, and the ramen was also delicious. Highly recommended 👍🏼👍🏼

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 9.1/10 Strong Tonkotsu Ramen with Potential for Perfection The Tonkotsu Ramen at Ginza Ramen was truly delicious. The broth was beautifully creamy, full of flavor, and just the right amount of salt – intense yet balanced. The noodles had the perfect bite, the chashu was tender and aromatic, and the egg was cooked to perfection. My only small wish: A little more garlic would have given the broth a final kick – that would have taken it from "very good" to "absolutely unforgettable." Nevertheless: A true must-try for Tonkotsu fans. Absolutely deserved a 9.1!

Suuuuuper delicious ramen even better than in the Netherlands

Super delicious, everything well done.

One waiter wasn't friendly. When we entered the cellar, he told us we weren't allowed to wander around and that we should just stay at the door and wait for his instructions. There was an error with our orders. He missed one person's meal. As soon as a friend had a sip of mineral water, the waiter came over to tell us we weren't allowed to drink anything that hadn't been ordered in the restaurant.

If you like modern tendy sushi, then you are good here. It used to have more traditional sushi with more traditional rice.

The food was delicious, the service impeccable, and the atmosphere pleasant. We highly recommend the ramen and the homemade lemonades.

Food was nice, nothing special. We ordered two tonkotsu ramen, and the broth had a strange sweetness to it, and it wasn’t as savoury as I would’ve liked. We also had karaage chicken (Japanese fried chicken) as a starter- this was nice, but came before our beers did! It probably took about 10 mins for our beers to come- pretty nuts that the fried chicken came before.

I've been to Ginza a few times and I'm always impressed. The service is always friendly and very attentive. I think it's the best sushi in Hamburg, and the bowl and chahan are so delicious! I also have to mention the fish – the salmon in the sushi is as soft as butter, and the bowl is cooked to perfection every time. The food is very attractively presented. I also like the atmosphere; at least when we were there, it was always a pleasant noise level. One of my favorite places in Hamburg!

Very tasty food with friendly service and something for everyone. The vegan rolls were also particularly delicious. Highly recommended.

We sat outside, it was pleasant, delicious and the staff was friendly :)

Small hidden gem that has very welcoming staff and the sushi was a great tasting experience. Highly recommend the shared bento experience with misu soup upfront. Well portioned for two persons and the quality of the tuna and salmon - perfect! Good job!

An authentic gem. Don't forget to leave some room for the mochi.

Small but nice The prices are good and the food is really delicious, and the service is friendly and attentive. I'd love to go back :)

Very fresh and delicious sushi 🍣, the food was delicious, and the service was good. They also serve other cuisines besides sushi. I was very pleasantly surprised and highly recommend it. I really hope the restaurant stays open for a long time.

Very good sushi, great ramen, very friendly staff. I'd be happy to go again, highly recommended.

Everything was great! I truly recommend this place especially at lunch

A Japanese restaurant run by Vietnamese people. It is very different from the food I ate in Japan. The price is reasonable.

Very tasty Ramen, super friendly service and nice atmosphere. Will definitely come back. Thank you!

We didn't even have time to go in before the waiter kicked us out because we weren't from the EU. Horrible restaurant. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. I hope you close very soon. That's no way to greet city guests.

Super nice service, very tasty food.

Delicious food, attentive staff, good value for money.

The service was great. However, the food was not as good as I've read in the reviews. While I'm not a picky eater, the crunchy rolls I've ordered were falling apart. The servings of wasabi and ginger are VERY small. The veggie soup was rather bland, I was missing a flavourful broth and freshness. Overall, okay just for dropping by and grabbing a bite.

Truly the best sushi I've eaten so far. And I have been to many sushi shops in Germany and abroad. The service was outstanding! I'll definitely make a detour on my next visit to Hamburg!

I've never had such good sushi in my life!! Absolute madness, can't understand how this store doesn't have 5 stars on Google!? The sushi tastes so incredibly fresh, intense... I don't even know how to describe this experience. You have to experience this! Really without a single negative point: TOP service TOP ambience Food 1A *****

Very delicious and tasty dish, I had the Udon, and service very nice and kind

Came in spontaneously while walking around and it’s been a great surprise. Delicious food and very friendly service. Cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended ❤️

We got a seat spontaneously and the service was very good and quick. The Tonkutsu Ramen tasted good. What surprised us, however, was that in order to have an egg in the ramen, you had to order the full topping. The full topping also included spinach and that could have been saved. We would still recommend Ginza.

Excellent quality food. The place is small but still welcoming and above all "quiet" for being in the center of Hamburg, I was impressed. The icing on the cake is the attentive and helpful staff. I recommend it.

Very expensive for the fact that the sushi unfortunately tastes like nothing. Fish was watery and unfortunately relatively tasteless - almost bland. The prices are clearly too high for that. Unfortunately, the beer from the barrel was also very low in carbon dioxide and therefore very sweet. Not a repeat for me, there is much better sushi in Hamburg for the same price.

Nice, cozy sushi restaurant. :) Discovered by chance. Whenever we are in Hamburg, we visit Ginza and are very satisfied. Rarely have I had such delicious sushi. The waitresses are also very friendly. We'll be back. :)

Everything was very tasty. They were very friendly and nice even though we were there very late. I would always be happy to recommend!

Incredibly tasty, great ambience, very nice service.

We tried the Miso an Karaage Ramen for lunch and unfortuanetly were disappointed by the taste. The broth could have been more umami and the meat was too dry. We would rather recommend other Ramen restaurants in St. Georg.

Food is good. À plus for the spicy mayo with the tempura. Staff is friendly. Seatings available inside and outside. Cash or German cards only.

Mega delicious sushi and the best ramen I've ever eaten. The staff is very polite and attentive. Since there are not many tables, it is advisable to reserve well in advance.

Had a real nice vegan yuzu ramen with tofu here that I really enjoyed and will remember. Great miso soup as well. Nice Japanese restaurant with a wide range of vegan options.

Nice restaurant in the heart of the city center. We ordered ramen, the food came quickly and tasted excellent. Very nice atmosphere. Overall it's a bit more upscale. Will definitely come back! (Would also be a good spot for a date) Update: Went here again recently and ordered sushi. It was super tasty. Also very unusual creations!

Small, rustic restaurant in the heart of Hamburg. The lunch prices are great. The drinks are relatively expensive. The photo shows the Spicy Miso Ramen and Chrispy Chicken Bowl. The broth of the ramen was super tasty and rich. We would come back for lunch!

My goodness, this ramen... It's simply divine. Everything was prepared to perfection. The egg, the noodles and the chicken...a poem. Absolute recommendation from me!

I ordered sushi there with a friend and it was very tasty. The staff was friendly and we were even able to order vegetarian options for non-vegetarian options upon request. The decor is very nice, but it was a bit cold in the restaurant and quite dark. Otherwise we were very happy with everything.
