Kai Maison in Berlin

I was a little disappointed. The service was attentive but a controlled chaos. Over the course of this we had 5 different conditions. The duck was average, but no better than the Asian restaurant around the corner. There are better places for it in Berlin. The ambience is quite good at the place.

Great restaurant! The food is very tasty with a great selection. The team is very friendly and attentive and the atmosphere is stylish. However, when it's full it's quite loud, which makes conversation a bit difficult 😅, but it was still a great evening. I would like to come here again.

Absolutely loved the food here! The presentation is both elegant and thoughtfully done, and the atmosphere is wonderfully relaxed. Every time I've visited, I've had an exceptional experience. The dishes are not only creative but packed with flavor, and the staff is always attentive and welcoming. Highly recommend!

Fantastic shop Tastes great Prices a bit high but worth it

Great food, really special, very tasty and beautifully arranged. Wonderful staff, kind, attentive and a very cool yet cosy atmosphere . With pleasure again

Das Ambiente ist schön! Die Blumen auf dem Tisch waren schon bestimmt seit 1 Woche alt und das Wasser in den staubigen Vasen war entsprechend! Ich hatte Ente mit Gemüse. Das Gemüse war sehr gut, die Ente wahrscheinlich schon 3 mal im Rohr! Definitiv nicht frisch! Schade!!

Super delicious food. It is a special kind of taste experience. The only negative point is that the location is a bit loud. Also worth mentioning is the great service (thanks again to Kiyo). We won't be with you for the last time! Best regards Frank

12 out of 10! Stylish, high-quality food in a stylish and relaxed atmosphere. All dishes are prepared very lovingly and creatively and also impress in terms of taste. We are thrilled and will definitely come back 🫶🏼 The best edamame we have ever eaten.

We took the tasting menu which was absolutely brilliant. Worth every cent. The orange wine from Penedes was also lovely. Nice staff and cute place!

Let's start with the good: the Pad Thai and duck were delicious. However, it is at best average compared to Berlin and the price is absolutely not right. The calamari with melon as a starter was incredibly boring and the quality was inferior. The cocktails were okay, but not recommended as there are too many very good bars nearby. The biggest problem was the service, a mixture of uncoordinated (starter was out of our table before the water) and intrusive (3 questions about whether it tastes good are 2 too many). My visit there was a one-time thing. It's a shame because the location is very good

Thanks! first visit and I thought I was on another planet. Great approach, come in and immediately feel captivated by the atmosphere, great guests - colorful, appealing audience - and then the friendliness of everyone, really all of the employees... and there are many. Wishes are read from your eyes, unobtrusive and incredibly genuinely charming. the food is varied and rare. Thank you so much! we'll be back.

The dishes are a bit small for the price. The taste is okay, but nothing special. I wouldn’t say it’s one of the best Asian restaurants in Berlin, despite what I saw in the reviews

Was very great to find this restaurant All was great Friendly service Best atmosphere And delicious food 🍱 We coming back for sure Thanks for the best hospitality Kai maison And thanks magic.ella (blogger)for recommending us to visit this beautiful place and people ❤️🙏🏻

Very friendly restaurant with delicious “Umami” cuisine (French-Asian). Hailey (?) served us very personably, authentically and funny. The food was very tasteful, creative, Asian, sometimes a bit too sweet. Wine list needs an upgrade, hence one star ⭐️ deducted. Overall, a great evening, we went home in a very good mood and will definitely be back soon!

Very tasty food in a pleasant atmosphere! I can definitely recommend it!👍🏼

Very interesting dining experience. We will come back with pleasure!

Beautiful place - tasteful, creative interior with cozy lighting and very attentive service. Food was healthy and tasty!

Recommendation ! Food: good - very good Service: good - very good Ambience: very good Note: good atmosphere and fancy food

More of a rip-off - very expensive prices for normally good tasting dishes and you have to pay extra for the rice.

Unfortunately I can't share the good reviews. The starter was actually delicious, which is why it gets two stars. But the curry is all the worse. Unfortunately, I have never had a worse meal, I really have to say. I often eat curry, I also know that good curry has to taste good and I AND my boyfriend didn't like it, they're way too expensive for that, you can get better everywhere. By the way, my friend's food was forgotten, including the meat-only curry, but we were happy about it. The waitress tipped herself a 15% tip, which I find rather cheeky and I had to change it to 10% myself. Nevertheless, the waiters were friendly, so I don't want to complain too much. We then left the table again after about 15 minutes.

We ordered the Tasting Menu today and the food was really incredible - some of the best food I have had in Berlin. Unfortunately, this was let down by the quality of service. We were repeatedly asked if we wanted to order more dishes - it seemed the staff did not know we had ordered the Tasting Menu or how it worked. We were worried that we had made an error every time it happened. Into our third course the staff began folding all of the tables around us (we were sat on Maybachufer across the road from the restaurant). This was a bit awkward so we volunteered to move to a table in front of the restaurant. Within 5 minutes the staff started to clear the tables around us again. This made us feel very awkward and as though we were in their way. This made for a very hasty and uncomfortable experience. We then waited 30 minutes to receive our desserts. All in all Kai Maison is a place with massive potential. When the food is that good you expect the service and ambience to match. Would like to come back one day and see the improvement!

Delicious creative food, excellent cocktails, great ambience (music was 👌🏼) and all in very reasonable prices! Great place!

Delicious food, very good service

Very creative cuisine, lots of herbs and really tasty. Beautiful outdoor area. You should be able to speak English. Prices are reasonable.

Perfect evening. Service very very good. The food was incredibly good. Again and again.

The quality of the food varies - some really very good, some average at best. Overall a bit overpriced. Lunch offer (15 euros for starters, main course and cold tea) very good, outside area very nice, inside exceptionally tasteful, service attentive and friendly.

Drinks are way too expensive, too diluted and only taste like water with lemon. (Hugo)

Do not come here if you have a gluten allergy. There are almost no options or accommodations available to you and one of the options had soy sauce therefore not even gluten free.

Ordered everything across the menu once, 3.5 appetizers, 3 mains with sides, 2 desserts, cocktails, 2 flat wines. 238€ Great food, they do a great job. Ambiance is also great. TOBI served us, took full care of us, and even organized a cigarette for us with dessert. Keep the boy, host from the heart. Will definitely come back one of our favorites in Berlin. Really nice...

Came for lunch with potential clients. Service was very bad. For was mediocre. The check was wrong. Also flying bugs were abound, staff did not care. Overall terrible experience, never again

Great store, great location, great staff. The food is just wow - every dish a 10/10, what an interesting selection of ceviche, tacos, beef tataki etc. Drinks are also top (Yuzu Sake Spritz, Hammer). We actually wanted to go out to eat somewhere else today and spontaneously discovered the shop while walking, scanned the menu with interest and got a great table. And don't regret staying here. We'll definitely be back. Thanks :)

Wonderful dinning in nice and convenient location with cool interior. Friendly staff. 100% suitable for youngers. Dishes were over my expectations. Fresh and nicely made. All sauces were impressively delicious. Tacos were so special. Sure to be back on next trip to Berlin.

Another wonderful new discovery. The selection of dishes. The Asian style is also very good and the service is very accommodating. We sat outside. Value for money is right. It is highly recommended.

Great restaurant found on Google. A bit disappointed that they didn’t have the reservation available when we arrived. Yes, I did the reservation late but they worked with pen and paper so they didn’t have it. But we got a table and the food was good. 😊

The food was good, but too expensive considering the small portions. The worst part however was how long we had to wait for the food and how long we had to wait for someone to notice that we wanted to pay and leave at the end of the meal. The place was not even that busy while we were there, there should have been no excuse for such long waits.

Good food and a nice place to sit and people watch. You can order a big fish, but I would advise to take multiple smaller items.

Seriously delicious food, amazing drinks (the Yuzu sparkler is divine!), impeccable service and magical Interieurs, both inside and outside. Great for people watching and for a little romantic stroll at the Maybachufer after dinner.

I would not advise anyone to go to this restaurant. The portion size is a joke and we as customers are a part of that joke because the joke is on us!!!. I will never eat here again. Better to go to Transit. The food is better.

If you know… you know. If you dont, now you do. Tapas Review 1. charcoal chicken popcorn Texture was good for the batter. The actual chicken could’ve been marinated - there was a lemon wedge but the flavor was lacking. Maybe making the mayonaise a bit more lemony would help but basically, by ordering this dish you are playing it safe. 2. squid with watermelon Be warned the watermelon is slippery!! The watermelon pieces are cut a bit too big. Making it difficult to eat with chopsticks. Squid was super yummy. Ideally they would toss the calamari in the sauce and then garnish with fresh watermelon in terms of the layering of flavor. The idea of combining the two flavors is really exciting but the execution was lacking. 3. truffle spinach cod roe salad Keeping on trend with this flavour combination this dish is simple and delicious. 4. kim chi yum. 5. beef tartare Where to start… Too warm, under salted and served with a bread that was prominently soft and sweet meant that the delicate flavor of tartare was totally missed. Slightly cooler tartare and a crisp and better made bread would elevate this dish. If you are a lover of tartare, as it is now, it does not come recommended. 6. Sweet potato fries On the chunkier side of fries. Skinless, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside made these some seriously delicious fries! The drinks were good. Cocktails on point. Going again? Yes, but not for a full range of tapas dishes. A snack of something accompanying drinks - perfekt. Side note: waiters super cute & accommodating. vibe & location was fantastic. A smile will take you far in this establishment.

4 stars but with a lot of room for improvement. Given the prices and the very fancy place we expected a more attentive and even a little faster service. The wine and water were room temperature, considering the 25 degrees of the evening..🥵. Positive note, all the dishes were very good. The menu is varied and very interesting. However, we will return to try other dishes.

Don't miss the goodbye sadness drink ;)

Calm place although it's at a roads' intersection. Very nice and quick service. The food is great, with veggie options (with a discount). I got veggie gyozas and a tofu miso. The rice was perfectly cooked. It seems banal to say but it's a rarity. Thanks!

Great food right on the canal. Insider tip in Kreuzberg

A very interesting and, in my opinion, successful combination of European and Asian cuisine! Fresh products in bright combinations called the fashionable word fusion will give you an unforgettable experience that you will definitely want to repeat. Framed by attentive but not intrusive service, dishes can pleasantly complement your date or meeting with friends. The establishment is suitable for a special occasion and for every day. The menu also includes basic cocktails and natural wines, which perfectly contrast and complement the taste of the dishes. Sometimes it can be a little noisy, but there is a lot of seating both outside and inside, there is enough space for privacy. I really liked the cut and taste of the tartare, as well as the interesting and very rich crispy tacos. This is not the first time I come and definitely not the last time!

Excellent food, absent service. We dined outdoors in the evening, on a table without tablecloth or placemats that no one cleaned; with a broken chair, two napkins between three (we asked for them twice), water for the dog requested and never received, table completely in the dark, without a lamp or a candle (once the sun went down YOU COULDN'T SEE THE FOOD, times very long wait: the waiter was only prompt in showing how to add the tip to the payment. Too bad.

food was good but nothing spectacular although it looks great on paper on the menu. the service was also not the best, food arrived in such a random order and some dishes were cold. we got the entrees after the mains were served. the location is great, but overall there’s room for improvement

Ein schönes Erlebnis. Schöne moderne Ambiente und leckere Speisen, alle weiterzuempfehlen. Jedoch war der Service miserabel, in einer Gruppe von sechs Personen ist alles schiefgegangen. Das Essen kam nicht, selbst wenn die anderen Gäste bereits ihre Vorspeisen hatten. Schlechte interne Absprache. Bei der Bezahlung, ist die Kassiererin mit meinem Geld in der Hand erst einmal jemand anderen abkassieren gegangen. Aber trotzdem, würd ich diesen Laden wieder Besuchen, mit der Hoffnung auf eine bessere Erfahrung.

Delicious food, especially the sea food, and even better service! Kiyo was the friendliest waitor! Thank you, we’ll be back!

Today you went overboard with your summer party. The idea was great, but if every guest has to ask for their orders an average of 8 times and additional tables are delivered with a Miles at the same time so that even more guests can be accommodated, that exceeds your capacity.

Kreuzberg Feeling pur. Nur die Fliegen haben genervt.

Very delicous place, and right on the canal. The meals and the location are amazing. Will be coming here again!

Quite bad service. We weren’t served for a very long time until we asked. We then got the wrong coffee so had to ask for the right one which they then seemed to forget about until we asked again whether it was coming. The oat milk coffee was nice when it arrived though

Es war wunderschön bei euch. Super liebe bedienen und das Essen war eine 10/10. Ich komme auf jeden Fall wieder zum Essen

The place is really nice, it's also very charming to sit there on a Sunday. I ordered the padthai, not bad but it was just okay. Other dishes sounded interesting such the mushrooms dish... maybe they are better. Must admit food is 🍽️ beautifully. Service was friendly

Service was wonderful and staff went above and beyond. Pad thai was absolutely amazing! We loved our time here and absolutely recommend it.

The food is nothing special, but it is very expensive. Unfortunately it wasn't convincing overall. Can't recommend a visit.

We came a second time after trying out just the drinks once. The drinks were pretty good. Regarding the food however I have to say that it seems to me the usually hyped Berlin restaurant where the food is just plated nicely and where they don’t really care about the taste. The Crab temaki had a spicy sauce that completely covered the flavour of the fish. On the other side the fungi forest was basically just fried tofu with tasteless mushrooms and a tasteless sweet potato puree. In conclusion: more than a restaurant I would suggest to go for the cocktails.

Good food but waited too long for food. Service also not able to separate the bills. Unfortunately the natural wine was undrinkable. The place is beautiful, although very loud

The Kai Maison is a currently very popular Korean restaurant on the Maybachufer with a beautiful, large outdoor area. It is always full here, especially on the cozy summer evenings. The service is top. Food and drinks are also really tasty. Absolutely recommended!👍😃

Admittedly, our start - Kai Maison and I - wasn't that ideal: Since I wanted to eat here on the evening of my birthday, I had reserved a table in advance. When we got there that evening, it had recently started to rain heavily, so all the guests rushed inside and the hut was full inside. Of course there was no table reserved for us there, and when I commented that I had reserved a reservation especially for this case, I only received a mushy "The other guests have all reserved too!" (which they obviously didn't have) and after a short wait we were assigned a "cat table" in the aisle. Actually, I was so well served here that I would have liked to leave again. But: luckily not!! We then ordered the Kai Maison Tasting Menu, which consists of 3 starters, 2 entrees, 2 different main courses and 2 desserts. And - I don't even know what to say!! I can't remember the last time I ate so well!! Almost every dish is a small revelation. I particularly liked the udon soup, but also the two meat dishes were each more delicious than the other. Likewise the desserts. And after a short time at the "cat table" we were offered a nice table with a view outside, where we could spend the next 2 hours in the restaurant, and the service staff were much friendlier for the rest of the evening than when we arrived.

We visited Kai Maison Berlin and were positively surprised by the flavors we found there. They offer a fusion menu mixing Asian and French cuisines. The menu is very varied with seafood, poultry, soups, meat main dishes and a special lunch menu at very affordable prices. Obviously, being in Berlin, they also have a wide variety of vegan dishes to try like tapas, taking several portions and tasting all the flavors of the house. The highlights were the starter called “Black Tori Karage” (Japanese style chicken) and the vegan “Fungi Forest” which is a collection of different mushrooms in a delicious sauce. For dessert we got the mango panna cotta, which was perfectly refreshing. In addition to the food, the location is also incredible with beautiful decor and tables on the street overlooking the famous Maybachufer, great for watching Berliners coming and going.

The food was delicious, the location is nice. Unfortunately my glass wasn't clean, the table wasn't wiped down either... the service was a bit disappointing, as soon as we arrived we were poorly received (male waiter, no smile, seemed annoyed), at first we couldn't get in, then we left Yes, he didn't know either (it was almost empty inside) even though we made a reservation. Later, the service seemed a bit uninterested, the waiter who served us didn't even smile at us but seemed annoyed, even though we were really easy customers and ordered food for over €100 plus drinks. We felt like they wanted to get rid of us as soon as possible, even though we were only there for an hour. Well, not anymore then.

The food was nothing remarkable; when you look at the menu, it all looks fantastic, but what you receive is rather dull, and the quality is not good either. We ordered the ceviche, which was too warm; the tempura was soaked in mayo, the duck was raw, and the aubergine was a tiny slide of aubergine baked in the oven with some vegetables, something you can easily do at home. At the end of the dinner, with two entrances and two main dishes, we were still so hungry that we ended up in the pizza place in front of the restaurant. Disappointing, I won't be coming back, that is certain!

We really enjoyed our stay with you and will definitely be back!

We were very positively surprised because we just wanted to eat something under the sun. Great compilations. The service wasn't quite as attentive but very nice. If my food had been a little warmer, it would have been 5 points overall - unfortunately it was empty, so I would have thought that was good... the freshly mixed teas are unfortunately really sweet, but I guess it has to be that way... Overall, very great and also sufficient portions!

Great food! We weren't expecting anything and just wanted to sit near the water. Really great, high quality food - take the tasting menu

Best Asian ever. Food on an unbelievable level. Different league

Always loud at the Maybachufer, curbside street place and it is crowded, but you know Berlin. The food was very good, price value is normal. The quality of ingredients and the composition verifies it for me. The beauty is complete with the dishes. The waiting staff was friendly, helpful and quick. A personal connection is not possible, it was too crowded.

It's not the first time we visit this restaurant, and we are always satisfied. The waiters are attentive, and the dishes are beautiful and delicious 🌸

Food is good. Service is chaotic. We gave up and left when the main course never arrived. Be prepared to wipe your table yourself, call for attention of the waiter and long wait. Great place if your are a youth out for drinks and some nice snacks, but not if you want a dinner. The kitchen seems to prio on-line orders rather than restaurant guests.

Got here whilst walking around the neighbourhood and looked like an interesting place. We ordered two set menus and a wonton soup on top to our server’s surprise and polished it all! Not that the portions were small but the food was very good and we were hungry. The service was very good and the server voluntarily informed us that we might have over ordered, which were happy about 😅 Ate the curry with crispy chicken, pad thai, summer roll, gyoza and wonton soup. All were really yummy!

Food is good. Service is chaotic. Be prepared to whipe your table yourself, call for attention of the waiter and long wait. Great place if your are a kid out for drinks and some nice snacks, but not if you want a dinner. The kitchen seems to prio on-line orders rather than restaurant guests.

The service here is just perfect. We were completely excited! Food lecker and they bring everything very fast. You can add also an atmosphere of terrace in artistic part of Neukölln ❤️

Wow!! We were visiting a friend who recommended this restaurant to us. The Kai Maison is located directly on the Landwehr Canal, on the Maybachufer. A Japanese-French restaurant. The ambience was authentic and beautiful. The waitresses were very attentive and quick. And the food was excellent, I haven't eaten anything so good in a long time. Really! It's definitely worth a visit. You have to know.

Very good food, delicious cocktails.

Dieses Restaurant ist noch ein echter Geheimtipp in Berlin. Das Essen schmeckt fantastisch, das Interior Design ist toll und die Mitarbeitenden sehr freundlich. Wir hatten das Tasting Menü für 45.- pro Person. Es hat sich mehr als gelohnt, denn man bekommt etwa 7 Gerichte plus 2 Desserts, die man sich dann teilen kann. Alle Gänge haben sehr gut geschmeckt und waren abwechslungsreich. Vor allem die knusprigen Tacos, den Spinatsalat und die Ente fand ich sehr lecker. Würde auf jeden Fall wiederkommen.

Worst food poisoning of my life! I had the wanton soup and some salmon, and tbh it did taste a bit funny, but thought this might be their advertised french/asian touch ...anyway, the hours afterwards were just terrible. Maybe I had just bad luck, and it usually is as great as some reviewers suggest...but frankly, the whole place to me seemed quite pretentious but without any culiary substance. And honestly, I do not want to know what their kitchen looks like from the inside or how/where they store their ingredients... Waiters were friendly (but slow), location is quite nice (but noisy due to street traffic)...but all that doesn't really matter when the food makes you sick.

Kiyo is the best waitress! Thank you for the great time :-)

Great service, vibes, and food! They only have a few vegan options, but they are good! Would really recommend the stuffed tofu and sweet potato fries (mayo is not vegan). We only tried 2 drinks but they were both so good, I would come back here to try more!

Everything was delicious, an explosion of flavors in the mouth, I recommend the soup that I added in the photo and which I don't remember the name of. Highly recommended!

Great selection of delicious Asian fusion food. The restaurant also has a great vibe.

Sehr lecker, guter Service, wunderschöne Lage. Unsere Familie hatte eine tolle Erfahrung und wir werden wiederkommen, wenn wir die Gelegenheit haben, wieder nach Berlin zu kommen

it was an amazing meal felt like a very natural atmosphere and the food was amazing

Great service and the food is fantastic!

My friends and I really enjoyed it and yes, the portions aren't large, but that's ultimately not the point for me. We left the restaurant pleasantly full, with the motto quality over quantity. Very friendly staff. Will definitely come back.

An exceptionally pleasant place.

Food ok, but service has to be upgraded. Waited over 2 hours for our food:/ Yesterday I booked a table for 6, since friends were visiting. First, they couldn’t find our table. 3 different waiters trying to figure out where to sit us only to find the table with our name on it 5 minutes later. We ordered food and drinks, the drinks and one starter came pretty late - all right, the restaurant was packed, but it wasn’t the worst yet. We’ve waited over 2 hours for our mains, reminding the waiters every 15 minutes - each time it seemed to be a different waiter, who just nodded and disappeared with no explanation. Finally one guy started looking into our order, telling us, that probably the other person didn’t even take our order in the first place🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ Finally, the food (pad Thai and temaki) arrived around 22:00, while we ordered at 19:30-19:40. No real apologies, no drinks on the house or at least some kind of friendliness or client loyalty. When we payed the waiter pointed out at the tip option - no, thank you, sir. The food was ok, but I couldn’t enjoy it anymore:( The evening was a bit ruined by this experience.

What a terrible experience. While the location is good, the portions are small and the wait staff is incompetent. It took over two hours for our food to come.

We went there spontaneously for dinner last night. The dishes were really tasty and the service was very friendly. Unfortunately, the portions were far too small for our liking and the high price. We left the restaurant hungry and when we expressed our criticism at the end, unfortunately there was no offer of compensation...a bit of a shame. Otherwise a great shop.

Very nice little restaurant/Bar by the water on a busy but peaceful corner. Food was great.

Great restaurant, very, very nice employees who respond to individual requests at any time. The food is exceptional and very good. Gladly again 🤗

Came in with a group of friends last Friday and the vibe was immaculate! The food was delish. A creative take of Vietnamese fusion. We definitely had ton of fun and enjoyed our night! Make sure you try the Karage, Ceviche, and all of the tacos when you're here. We also got bottles of wine and they were yummy! 😛 Quy was our host for the night and can i just say: ✨ WHAT. A. VIBE ✨ He definitely brought the party and good energy to the table. Would definitely return when I'm back in Berlin. Overall, highly recommended! 💯

Lækker mad, god - og hurtig - betjening. Velbesøgt af både lokale og os turister der finder vej. God beliggenhed. Kan anbefales

Beautiful restaurant, delicious dishes and great drinks! Vegan dishes available - also highly recommended.

Nice restaurant in the ideal location. The food is very, very good and the service is top notch. Magnificent value for money… Don’t change anything. An original experience!

Time for lunch during a walk through the city. This place is worth all the positive reviews I read that made us it down. Velvety curry and excellent vegetarian small dishes to share!!

Everyone should try the food here once Recommend Salmon Organic and Passion Love😋

Great experience ! Thanks for Quy for great service!

Quy is the best waiter I’ve experienced. This attitude, this way of approaching customers is unforgettable. This place is highly recommended, big love

Chic shop with good tapas, service sometimes a bit slow but this is made up for by the excellent food
