Kaizen in Köln

Es war ein wunderschöner Abend, mit super leckeren und frischen Essen!

Lecker essen aber von den 6 malen wo ich da war war dieses Mal der Lachs nicht so frisch. Trotzdem eines der leckersten Sushi Spots in Köln

Keller haben oft was vergessen. Nur bei 2-3 erinnern wurde drauf eingegangen

sehr zu empfehlen. Sehr leckeres Essen, tolles Ambiente

Sehr guter Service, absolut leckeres und abwechslungsreiche(s) Essen und Getränke!

Die Gerichte waren in Ordnung. Das Sushi keinesfalls besser als in ähnlichen Häusern. Die Bestell-Spielerei auf dem überlassenen Ipad ist schlicht lästig, man muss immer wieder zum Hauptmenü zurückspringen. Dass uns 2 x bei Neubelegung der Nachbartische grosszügigst Desinfektionsspray einnebelte dürfte an der Einarbeitung einer Bedienung an diesem Tag gelegen haben.

Wie immer eine wunderschöne Erfahrung. Wirklich empfehlenswert

Ich gehe immer wieder sehr gerne ins Kaizen Sushi essen für mich ganz klar der beste Sushi-Laden in Köln. Die Qualität vom Sushi ist konstant top, alles frisch, perfekt zubereitet und geschmacklich einfach überragend. Der Service ist super aufmerksam, freundlich und entspannt, sodass man sich direkt wohlfühlt. Egal ob spontan oder geplant, es passt einfach immer alles. Absolute Empfehlung, ich komme jedes Mal gerne wieder.

Sehr zu empfehlen! Super freundliches Personal, eine gute Auswahl auch für Vegetarier und die Fisch Qualität ist hochwertig. Wir waren zum ersten Mal dort, aber mit Sicherheit nicht zum letzten Mal.

Authentische japanische Küche aber auch hipsterfood [Rollen mit ungewöhnlichen Kombis]. Spitzenqualität beim Fisch, wir hatten schwerpunktmäßig Sashimi, haben den bluefin Thunfisch verschlungen.

Hervorragendes Essen mit exzellenter Qualität, sehr nette Bedienung. Wir fühlten uns - wie auch sonst immer - bestens im Kaizen aufgehoben. Alles fantastisch. Immer wieder gerne und sehr zu empfehlen, wenn man sehr gut Japanisch essen gehen möchte.

Always a highlight and a real treat! The food is outstanding, with a wide selection and perfectly balanced flavors. The drinks menu is also impressive. Ordering is quick and easy via tablet, making the experience very pleasant. The service is prompt and friendly, and the atmosphere is lively – the restaurant is always busy.

A Japanese wanna be: 1. After being seated, no menu was given for 10 min. Had to go to one of the employees to ask for it 2. Dirty electronic ordering pad. Did you guys cook on it? 3. 39 EUR sashimi were semi-cooked, the freshness was questionable. The price-quality was not reasonable.

The food was okay, nothing special, rather mediocre! I was there with my wife and daughter. We weren't impressed with the food, I have to say; we had hoped for more because of the good reviews we'd read beforehand, which is why we decided to come here.

What an explosion of flavor! It was our first time at Kaizen, and we really treated ourselves. Since we hadn't made a reservation, we were lucky to get a table at all. My husband has celiac disease, and the wonderful Lydia served us with her expertise, even bringing me gluten-free soy sauce. Ordering via the iPads was easy, and the appealing pictures were very helpful. Besides the outstanding quality of the fish, the drinks were a true delight for the palate. We will definitely be back. A clear recommendation from us!

A great place, I definitely recommend it. The rolls are delicious and, most importantly, fresh. The staff is friendly. If you're looking for sushi in Cologne, this is definitely the place to go!

Cooles Asien-Fusion Restau in Köln. Essen sehr gut, Service super nett, die IPad Bestellung fanden wir nervig (aber der Service hilft...). Ambiente ok. Insgesamt punktet vor allem das Essen- Philly Steak Rolls - genial! Wir kommen wieder und können Kaizen echt empfehlen. Unbedingt reservieren. Der Laden ist gut besucht und das aus gutem Grund.

Good place with high quality food! Atmosphere perhaps a little noisy but in general is a good place to enjoy Japanese food

We ordered delivery today between 8 and 9 pm. Unfortunately, the order didn't include soy sauce, but we quickly called! The soy sauce arrived at our house within 15 minutes!! Wow, thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ The food was absolutely delicious! 😋

Service war 1A, Essen ist außergewöhnlich und außergewöhnlich lecker!

Maybe the best sushi I've had in Germany. Very helpful and nice over the phone while placing a takeout order. Thank you.

I didn't like it, the interior is not nice in dark colors, it's uncomfortable, I want to leave as soon as possible. I didn't like the food either, I can't recommend it.

The sushi is so delicious, the quality is unbeatable, and all the staff are so warm and friendly. See you next week! ❤️ 🍣

We spent a weekend in Cologne and decided to eat at Kaizen. It was by far the best sushi we've ever had. The restaurant is beautiful, the atmosphere is wonderful, and the staff is simply fantastic! We would definitely come back every time we visit Cologne! :)

Very good sushi. Ordering is done via tablet. Friendly service. It could be a bit more cozy. Some background music and some noise reduction would help.

Delicious food and incredibly friendly staff. Highly recommended!

Excellent sushi with consistently fresh ingredients. Highly recommended!

Wirklich großartiges Essen, besonders die veganen / vegetarischen Optionen waren besonders gut. Das Essen wurde immer passend gebracht, sobald etwas leer war, war schon das nächste Gericht bereit

Still one of my favorite Japanese restaurants. The food looks and tastes just like it appears on the menu. Sometimes a bit confusing clicking through the tablet, but that's no drawback. Beautifully presented, and you always get your table quickly. It's a good place to have a conversation. You should definitely make a reservation in advance; alternatively, you can sit at the bar, but that's more of a passing area. The prices are a bit higher, but I think that's very fair. I'd happily go back again. 👍🏼

The best Japanese restaurant! Very good quality. Everything was perfect!

The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive 👌. I invited friends from a distant city, and we were all thrilled – the creative dishes and unique combinations are simply fantastic! Every dish was so delicious, you'd want to try the whole menu. There's also a great selection for vegans and gluten-free eaters. Ordering via the tablet is accompanied by pictures and is super easy to use. Although the restaurant is often very busy, the service is fast and the quality of the food is excellent. I definitely recommend making a reservation a few days in advance, both during the week and on weekends.

Wir waren mittags da. Wunderbar charmanter Service, der uns durch die Karte geführt hat. Sushi grandios kann man nur empfehlen.

Delicious fresh sushi and friendly service!

The sushi was excellent! Highly recommended ❤️

Great fish quality and relaxing atmosphere

Wir waren das erste Mal dort und werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen. Super Location, super Essen, super Stimmung, tolles, freundliches Personal. Danke für einen richtig schönen Abend!

Beste Sushi in ganz Köln! Gehe dort seit Jahren hin und war noch nie enttäuscht. Super nette Mitarbeiter und das Ambiente ist auch Mega!

Das Essen und der Service waren wirklich hervorragend – sehr aufmerksam, freundlich und absolut empfehlenswert. Ein kleiner Wermutstropfen waren die Cocktails: Der Moscow Mule kam leider nur halb gefüllt im typischen Becher, was bei einem Preis von 9 € etwas enttäuschend war. Gerade in dieser Preiskategorie hätte ich mir eine vollständige und optisch ansprechende Zubereitung gewünscht. Auch die Atmosphäre war insgesamt angenehm, allerdings wirkte eine Wand noch etwas kahl und unfertig, was das Ambiente leicht geschmälert hat. Alles in allem aber ein tolles Restaurant mit großartiger Küche und Service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Kaizen is hands down the best sushi spot in Cologne. Every time I visit the city, it’s my first stop. The sushi is always fresh and beautifully prepared – my personal favorites are the Green Diamond and Shrimp Tempura rolls. The atmosphere is elegant yet relaxed, service is excellent, and the quality is consistently top-notch. A little tip: pair your sushi with a glass of Riesling – it makes the experience even better. Truly a must-visit for sushi lovers in Cologne!

Since it's a place we frequent, the three of us visited again for lunch. We ordered five drinks and some food and ate in the restaurant, but the bill only showed a starter, which was a bit confusing. I think it would be better if the order details were more detailed next time.

Kaizen is by far the best sushi restaurant :) I especially recommend the Crispy Amazon. They also offer many vegan options! The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. The only drawback is that they don't have a changing table. They're still very baby-friendly! Reservations are recommended, as it's very popular :)

Very tasty food, a bit on the high side but perfectly fine for the quality. The atmosphere was pleasant with many regulars, but the service could have been a bit more attentive overall. Still, 5 stars, and I'll be back.

Very, very tasty food, super friendly service. Unfortunately, it was quite loud, making conversation difficult, and the prices were relatively high.

Everything tastes great, highly recommended 🤤

Great sushi, can't think of anything better!

Great sushi restaurant to visit in Cologne. Variety of fun drinks and rolls. The karage chicken was to die for! Order on the iPad and the food is brought to your table.

I love the food there! I first went there 5 years ago and have never had better sushi than there. The world's best sushi is only available here! An absolute must for sushi lovers!

Good food, but I still deducted one star because I find the prices for the lunch menu a bit excessive.

Was a nice and delicious restaurant I would recommend it

It was perfect. I've never eaten such great sushi.

Despite having a reservation for two hours, we were shown the door after one hour due to double booking. The problem was primarily the manner in which we were served. The food was truly excellent! Service and human interaction unfortunately left a lot to be desired. Addendum: Reservation was on Voltz for 6-7:45 PM.

Very tasty and the service was great. A bit pricey, but well worth it :)

An excellent Japanese restaurant with outstanding service and excellent cuisine. The dishes were fresh, flavorful, and lovingly prepared – a true culinary recommendation for lovers of Japanese cuisine. The staff's recommendations were also very apt and demonstrated great expertise. The friendliness and attentiveness of the team, who were always present without being intrusive, deserves special mention. One small suggestion for improvement: While ordering via tablet is practical and efficient, it does take away some of the personal interaction with the service – which is particularly unfortunate given such a hospitable team. Overall, however, a thoroughly enjoyable visit. I would be happy to return!

A great place to meet a friend or for a romantic date

Absolutely recommend it! For me, Kaizen is the best sushi shop in Cologne. The quality of the ingredients is exceptionally fresh, each piece of sushi is prepared with great attention to detail, and it not only looks good but also tastes excellent. There's a wide selection, including not only classic varieties but also many unusual creations. The ambiance is modern and cozy; you immediately feel at home. The service is super friendly, attentive, and happy to help with your selection. The price-performance ratio is absolutely justified for the quality. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

Great Asian restaurant. Unusual dishes, great taste. Tray-served menu, well-designed, and easy to use. We'd love to visit again.

There is no terrace in the summer, a big minus for me. But overall it's ok.

Fine dining! Very friendly staff.

Erstklassiges Restaurant! Sowohl der Service als auch das Ambiente waren ausgezeichnet und das Essen war köstlich. Immer wieder gerne.

First-class restaurant! Both the service and the ambiance were excellent, and the food was delicious. I'd happily return.

Fantastisches Essen - jedes einzelne Gericht war sehr lecker und der Service sehr schnell und freundlich

Great quality! I visited the restaurant with a friend. Ordering was convenient and easy via iPad. The best part: gluten-free sushi and other delicacies, including soy sauce... We simply ordered everything gluten-free, and it was all delicious. The rice was perfect and not heavy, the fish was extremely fresh, and the seasonings, such as the pickled ginger and wasabi paste, were very tasty and superbly prepared. We enjoyed every sushi roll and were happy that we chose Kaizen. The service was friendly and very accommodating. Everything went quickly, and we were happy. We'll be back! A fantastic taste experience, 100% recommended. 🙌

Top-notch sushi. Friendly service.

The best sushi in Cologne! Great quality, superb service, and unique creations!

Great (vegetarian & vegan) food and super friendly staff! Everything is made with love :)

A fantastic experience! The service was friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. Everything was perfect; we'd love to come back.

Es war ein toller Abend mit super Essen. Die Bestellung über das iPad verlief problemlos. Die Qualität des Fisches ist super.

I've eaten at Kaizen several times now and each time my companion and I have been thrilled by the quality and presentation of the food. Consideration is also given to people who eat vegan or gluten-free foods. I would love to come back and am already looking forward to the next time ☺️

The food and service was really good; The only thing that's super annoying is ordering via the iPad, it would really help if you had cards and then ordered via the iPad; We would have even ordered more, but we didn't feel like using the iPads, which crashed every now and then.

Das Restaurant zeichnet sich durch eine exzellente Qualität aus. Die Qualität der Gerichte ist exzellent. Obgleich ich mich bereits mit den vorliegenden Bewertungen auseinandergesetzt hatte, war ich hinsichtlich der positiven Resonanz doch überrascht. Der Service zeichnet sich durch besondere Zuvorkommtheit und Freundlichkeit aus. Bei der erstmaligen Anwesenheit an diesem Ort wird den Teilnehmern das zugrunde liegende Konzept in aller Ausführlichkeit dargelegt. Diese Entwicklung ist äußerst positiv zu bewerten. Zusammenfassend lässt sich festhalten, dass eine klare Empfehlung ausgesprochen werden kann.

I've been going to Kaizen for years, I tried the Volcano rolls for the first time in 2017, I've now switched to Crispy Amazon, it's great that they have a veggie option, for me it's still the best restaurant in Cologne

Besser geht es nicht! Mega lecker, wenn auch nicht ganz günstig, aber jeden Euro wert. Sonderwünsche ohne Problem möglich, Bestellung über ein Tablet. Service super 👍🏻

Really great, super friendly employees! Eating gluten-free is no problem at all. Very tasty and beautifully decorated. We had the feeling of being guests of friends. Thanks for that!

Cozy and stylish, the food from the starter to the end was great, the sauces and the sushi were really on a high level

War das erste Mal bei Kaizen und war begeistert. Schöne Auswahl an Speisen.

Wir waren schon häufiger im Kaizen und sind jedesmal begeistert.

The best and highest quality sushi I have ever eaten! Thank you for the experience

For me the best sushi in Cologne and super friendly staff. Glad to have this restaurant in the neighborhood!

Herausragend - was soll ich mehr sagen... • Auf jeden Fall reservieren • nicht billig - gleichzeitig jeden Euro wert • sprechenden Menschen kann geholfen werden (auf Unverträglichkeiten wird eingegangen) • Sake ist teuer • wenn der Laden voll ist, kann es auch mal länger dauern, bis eine Bestellung kommt Ich komme wieder, am liebsten mit Freunden!

We are totally thrilled. It's all very tasty and special! The service is very nice...We'll be back!

My absolute favorite sushi restaurant The quality of the sushi is outstanding, super fresh and beautifully prepared. I would also particularly like to highlight the waitresses: super friendly, attentive, you feel welcome from the first moment. The service is quick and warm. absolute recommendation!

Absolutely great sushi! Everything was super delicious! I don't think I've ever had such tender tuna nigiri as I did there! The beef bowl was also great! Higher price range, but high quality. The service is also good. We'll definitely be back!

Herausragende Qualität und Geschmack. Wir waren anläßlich eines Geburtstages da. Darauf ging die Servicekraft bei der Rechnung ein - es gab einen kleinen Rabatt. Unser Aufenthalt war nicht billig, gleichzeitig jeden Cent wert. Ich komme sehr gerne wieder...

🙈 geht gar nicht Ipad Bestellung- Paypall Bezahlung? Good luck mit einem romantischen Abend - Essen ok - Service 0 Point

The food is great and the staffs are friendly. Reservations is needed

Wir waren/sind begeistert! Sehr aufmerksamer Service, authentische japanische Küche, und nette, gemütliche Lokation- wir kommen wieder

With one of the best sushi shops in Cologne: The team is super friendly, ordering via the tablet is super easy, the fish is of very good quality but the vegan sushi is also good. Be sure to try the fried rolls!

The restaurant was almost empty, but I was turned away. Probably not everyone is allowed to eat there, but it's not particularly good and clearly speaks against this shop, which I used to go to often but no longer

Beste Sushi! Sehr authentisch japanisch Sushi. Frisch. Wir haben ein Sushi Platz mit 10 verschiedenen Nigiri bestellt und es war soooo lecker, schon auf next Level. Wirklich best Sushi ever.

Once again a delicious meal with friendly people who quickly fulfill your wishes. Always my pleasure.

Kaizen has become our favorite Japanese restaurant. Great rolls that don't necessarily correspond to traditional Japanese cuisine, but also classic cuisine and great sushi and sashimi variations. A suitable selection of drinks and good cocktails. Reservations are mandatory, even during the week.

There was an extra gluten-free menu and gluten-free soy sauce. It was very tasty and the service was friendly. We had a great evening!

The food was very good, but I’m giving only 3 stars due to the price and the service. For this price level, I would expect a higher standard of service rather than ordering via an iPad interface. There were several issues with our order, such as missing rice and forgotten wasabi. When we asked for the wasabi, we were given a very small portion for four people, which was clearly not sufficient. Overall, it was a good Japanese restaurant, but the price-to-service ratio made it feel overpriced. For that reason, I wouldn’t recommend it.

Finding a parking space took over 30 minutes, but everything else that came after that made up for it more than 100%. Super tasty, absolutely friendly staff and cozy atmosphere, we will definitely come back. Finding a parking space included 🙈

One of the best sushi shops that you must try at least once

Bestes Sushi überhaupt ! Können es wärmstens empfehlen

Hammer!! We love going out for sushi, but we've never had anything like this before. Everything is super fresh and unusual flavors that you can't get anywhere else. Great authentic atmosphere. Super nice staff, we come here quite often! 😍🙏🏼

Bis auf die zu laute Musik war es wieder Wunderbar!

Great service and delicious food ❤️
