Restaurant Kazoku Izakaya in Magdeburg

The food is okay but it is incredibly small and crowded. One gets to basically share the table with strangers. No intimacy at all. And the prices are not on the inexpensive side too...

I've been eating here regularly for a year and can only recommend it to everyone. You can sit outside and inside. The interior is relatively small and designed like a Japanese pub. I like it and find it very comfortable. Of the starters, I can particularly recommend the takoyaki (squid balls) and the beef tartare. There is also enough choice for vegetarians. Whether it's ramen, Japanese curry or sushi, it tastes fresh and simply delicious! The homemade lemonade and shakes are also by far the best. The service is very friendly and I almost feel like I'm in "my living room". However, I recommend making a reservation in the afternoon/evening.

Super delicious food, be sure to make a reservation as the restaurant is not very big

Great food, great attitude, great atmosphere, highly recommend !

Super cute shop....tastes great.... It's a shame that the tables are so small, there just isn't enough space for several tapas. But the food and the service make up for it 👍 👍 👍

I have never eaten such good food in my entire life. So far I've managed to convince all of my friends to eat there and no one has regretted it. Definitely recommended!

The food is super tasty and very freshly prepared. The service is friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, it's a bit cramped in places. Nonetheless very satisfactory!

Very tasty food with friendly staff happy to come again when we are nearby

I enjoyed myself!!! Beautiful setting. Server who speaks French. Not far from the station and the B&B

Delicious. Always worth a visit. Keep it up.

It was super tasty and the staff was extremely friendly. We felt really welcome. Thanks!!

The best restaurant in Magdeburg!!! Authentic and fresh Japanese cuisine with super friendly service and a great ambience. Ordered sushi for pickup today :-)

Fantastic cuisine! Prepared with a lot of love. Super nice manager. Fair prices for healthy food :)

Me and my family have already been bunch of times to this place and enjoy everytime trying something new. The food is delicious with multiple options for adults with a quick service. The decor is welcoming and cozy. I would surely visit again. One ⭐️ Minus : I wish to see some more food options for kids besides Desserts.

The food was very good. However, we were surprised when we were asked to leave after the main course because our table was reserved for the next guests. We had made a reservation for 6:30 p.m. and were shown out at 7:50 p.m. just as we were about to order dessert. Very unfriendly

A small, comfortably furnished restaurant with outdoor seating. The service is friendly and understanding if you need a little longer to get through the various drinks and dishes on the menu in dim lighting. The decision is difficult because the food or drinks that the neighbor is getting also look very tasty. Conclusion: The starters are consistently delicious and surprisingly seasoned, the main course is imaginatively prepared and tastes excellent, as is the dessert. Clear recommendation. Be sure to reserve in advance.

We have already looked for the best ramen in Cologne, Düsseldorf and Dresden. We found a restaurant in Hamburg that was really good, but that certain something was still missing. We found everything here: taste, authenticity, ambience, service. All in all extremely recommended for all fans of Japanese cuisine. The ramen was by far the best. The starters were very good, gyoza like grandma made. We are very satisfied that we ate here and can recommend the shop 100% 😊

It's not a classic Chinese restaurant, but rather Vietnamese or generally Asian. We sat outside under the roof. the service is very attentive and nice. The food is rather small portions, but quite tasty. A lot of it is offered with rice dough. There were only 2 small wontons in the wonton soup, which I think was clearly not enough. A lot of broth, but little content. The shrimps with minced meat were quite tasty, as was the squid with minced meat filling. But here too, portions are clearly too small. Unfortunately, the large wonton soup quickly became a bit mushy due to the soggy rice noodles. All in all it was ok, not cheap at 65 EUR for 2 people, but not more.

An absolute recommendation! The sushi was simply bombastic and we have never experienced such an atmosphere. The facility invites you to stay and marvel. Whom If you get bored while eating, you can even read the manga that is available. Definitely an insider tip!

Always a recommended place with a Japanese atmosphere, friendly service and an authentic menu.

Top. Very friendly staff. Very good service. The food is very tasty. The price-performance ratio is right. I would love to come back.

Good food and also a lot of choice for (vegan/vegetarian) The service is also very nice and builds pleasant relationships with customers.

Super tasty Asian food - friendly staff and a great ambience. Reservations are definitely recommended.

This was easily one of the worst Japanese dining experiences I've had so far. We ordered tonkotsu ramen, tori karaage, yakitori, and the sushi for one menu. The ramen tasted like overly salty instant noodles, and the karaage (fried chicken) barely had any chicken. The yakitori was the biggest disappointment—€7.20 for two skewers, each with two tiny, dry, flavorless pieces of chicken, and I couldn't even tell which part of the chicken it was. We got trick from the menu photo showing four skewers with generous portions of meat. The sushi was slightly better, but still overpriced for such mediocre quality. I definitely won't be ordering from here again.

Normally one of the best addresses in Magdeburg, food great, atmosphere interesting and service ok too. The last time I had a reservation was at 7 p.m., but unfortunately I didn't get my ordered table until 8:15 p.m.! (I actually didn't want to share my experience because I thought it was an isolated case.) Today I tried to order for 12 people, "we can only accept up to 6 people" ok, then I order for 2 x 6 people, yes that works, but then you can't sit together... what a strange dialogue! But I promised that I would also share this on Google, and I have now done justice to that. 😀 At some point the customer experience apparently no longer counts because “you can afford it” is my impression.

Really a fancy place with fancy dishes. The chicken skin as a starter is a real highlight in itself.

BEST FOOD in Magdeburg (If you like Asian and a wide variety of food) There's also a great selection of veggies. We were there as part of a team event with 5 people. Starters, several drinks and dessert for just under €160, so around €32 per person. It's hard to beat that, and for such good food!

We are tourists in Magdeburg and searched for a good restaurant on Google. The reviews for Kazoku made us curious and lucky for us! Reserved a table. The restaurant was full inside and out. the service was really great, absolutely friendly and relaxed. We ordered a few small appetizers and different sushi variants😋 The platters were really well prepared, very rich and, above all, really tasty🤩 Price/performance ratio is also top. I can fully recommend this restaurant.

We stopped by on a Friday evening without a reservation. The staff was very friendly and accommodating and made it possible for us to get a table. We felt very welcome and really enjoyed the excellent food. Thank you!

We stumbled upon this lovely restaurant last year by chance and came back three times during the same week. Coming back to Magdeburg a year later, we were thrilled to see the place has not lost a single bit of its perks - amazing food, great drinks and amazing service and hospitality.

Best address in Magdeburg when it comes to excellent Asian food! I am a regular guest and am thrilled every time. The dishes are exceptionally good and the staff is incredibly friendly without being intrusive. Top price-performance ratio. Keep it up and you won't be able to get rid of me again :)

It was delicious in general, but the desserts just weren’t a success at all...they couldn’t even eat them..

Was there today for the first time based on my friend's recommendations and I have to say it's an absolute must if you've always wanted to eat udon noodles or ramen. I had the udon noodles myself and I have to say it was very, very tasty. If I didn't have fixed costs I would probably eat there every day! I would recommend making a reservation or coming spontaneously shortly after opening time. The decor also fits in very well and the staff is very friendly! Gladly again!

Always worth a visit. We have been regular guests there for years 🤗

Been there 5 times and always enjoy coming back. 👍🏼

Top Japanese cuisine restaurant. It is highly recommended to reserve a table as it is very popular and not very large. What was surprising was the unique style of the cuisine, which also created a wow effect on the palate. Thank you at this point for this culinary experience.

Super authentic and delicious. The waitresses are nice and attentive, it was a real experience. Anyone who wants to try Japanese cuisine has come to the right place. The tapas invite you to try them out and the udon soup was delicious. My highlight was the takoyaki, the tastiest I've had so far in Germany ♥️.

Great fresh food in very decent portions, and of course very nice service. Thank you again ❤️🍜

There are some vegan dishes here. Our food was really good, we'll be back. Thanks to the construction site, you can sit outside without too much traffic. The service is quick and attentive.

I had 10 tofu skewers 14b Tofu no Pizza 21 Nasu Dengaku and I haven't eaten so well in ages! It was all so well coordinated and I could have easily fooled myself. The restaurant would be a reason for me to move to Magdeburg. At least I will now stop there every time on the way from OWL to Berlin.

It was delicious food with you. I'll be back.

Mega delicious ramen, good service and totally child-friendly. A shop with a lot of charm...better eat somewhere else so that there is always a place available for us.

Really a treat! The food is very good. Deciding wasn't easy as there are some great dishes on the menu. The drink selection was also very diverse. The ambience is very nice. There are so many details, even in the toilet. 😄 The staff was attentive and repeatedly asked if everything was okay. Questions were always answered in a friendly manner. And the wait for the drinks and food to arrive wasn't long. We'll definitely be back.

Tolles und Vielfaltiges Essen. Leider konnten wir das nur einmal genießen ,weil wir auf der Durchreise waren. Sowas leckeres kennen wir sonst nur vom Melrose in Stuttgart.

Ebi Shumai is super tasty and the hibiscus tea is very relaxing

Had a delicious lunch there on Saturday, great quality, super friendly staff, gladly again, absolutely recommended!

Delicious Gyoza for starter, happy family sushi for main course, mochi for dessert. Sweet, smiling and friendly waiters. Completed decoration of the restaurant. Highly recommended 🍣🍱🍤🥟

Super great restaurant with great offerings, very nice staff The food was an absolute highlight

Everything was good except for the bill, because 19% VAT is added to all prices. And this despite the fact that there is no indication anywhere in the menu that these are net prices!

Super delicious food, the employees there are really nice. I've rarely felt so comfortable. We'll definitely come back more often!

The restaurant was a little cramped, but very traditional and authentic! The food came very quickly and was incredibly tasty. Gladly again :)

Easily the best restaurant in town! Plenty of incredibly high quality and fairly unique menu items, a whole lot of comfy vibes all over and some straight up S-tier staff members. This place even holds up after coming back from a food-centered trip to Japan. Virtually all dishes are recommendations but my personal favorites are the Takoyaki and a classic bowl of ramen soup. Although not the main focus of the menu, there's also a very fair vegetarian selection on offer. For me, this is the kind of place I'd happily drive 3 hours to, just to have dinner <3

Alles top ohne Ausnahme. Ohne Einschränkungen zu empfehlen. Tipp: Für das Wochenende auf jeden Fall reservieren! Meine Kinder 11 und 12 sind auch begeistert. Alles sehr frisch.

Really very tasty food and the whole team is super friendly. However, you have to like the cramped seating and the time slot of 90 minutes is often very tight.

Always a pleasure, the tofu pizza and the matcha tiramisu are incredibly good. One of my favorite restaurants in Magdeburg.

Great food and great service. Gladly again!

The Kazoku Izakaya can confidently be described as a Magdeburg must have. Yummy...

Super tasty food, very nice service. We'd love to come back

Very good food and worth trying new food.

The most authentic Japanese restaurant I have found in Germany so far! A hidden gem between all the restaurants, you can find original Japanese cuisine here. I was blown away. The staff are very attentive and friendly. Since the restaurant itself is rather small, we ordered takeaway and waited outside in the beautiful outdoor area. The red lanterns were already switched on in the evening and since it was still a bit cool in the evening, we were each given different teas while we waited for the house. These were homemade and so delicious that I will order one next time (it was orange-ginger my absolute favourite!). I definitely recommend it, everyone has to try it! There are even squid balls just like they are made in Japan, plus other specialties you can't get anywhere else! :)

I found the portions small and it felt like everything was way too sweet that evening. Still tasty, therefore only 1 star deducted

A piece of Japan in Magdeburg I have visited many Japanese restaurants, but in my opinion Kazoku Izakaya is the best Japanese restaurant in Magdeburg. The atmosphere is authentic and inviting, which immediately creates a feeling of comfort. The food is simply outstanding! It is freshly and perfectly prepared and the selection of traditional Japanese dishes leaves nothing to be desired. The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. They ensure that you as a guest feel completely comfortable. They are always helpful and competent if you have any special requests or questions about the dishes. Kazoku Izakaya has managed to bring a little piece of Japan to Magdeburg and I can only recommend everyone to visit this wonderful restaurant. An absolute must for all lovers of Japanese cuisine. We'd love to come back!

Excellent service and great food

delicious authentic Japanese food. I had ebi udon, (blue) butterfly tea, and shared takoyaki 😋 the menu is a bit huge, ask a friend or the staff for recommendations and you'll be golden the staff is very sweet

Can other ramen bars learn a lesson from this? That was really really tasty.

Small but very nice and authentic restaurant with extremely friendly staff and excellent cuisine.

Super tasty, service very friendly, atmosphere cozy

Incredibly delicious and authentic ambience.

A great, very well-kept restaurant. Very friendly staff/service, who are attentive and friendly at all times. The food itself is a taste explosion. The restaurant is a must to visit. I am absolutely thrilled.

It's hot outside and cool inside... a huge plus in hot weather. We ordered spicy ramen, udon soup with beef, gyoza dumplings and shrimp tempura. the price is really surprisingly low for such great quality of food. wallet-friendly place. oriental decor gives a sense of escape from the European climate. I really liked the Japanese stools. as for the food... a range of flavors... nothing exaggerated... perfectly balanced proportions. aromatic dumplings filling.... shrimps covered with a magical sesame sauce that stole my heart. perfect udon noodles... soft... a pleasure to eat. a creamy egg that melts in your mouth solid portions but fortunately not dripping with fat. You'll eat plenty but you won't feel sluggish afterwards. If you are a fan of Asian food, definitely go there, you will be pleased

It was delicious but of course it took a while until it was served, which is very stupid if you only get one slot to sit. (At the end you are also politely asked to finish) I would have liked more explanations about the individual special features on the menu. The idea is good. Prices are okay.

We were very satisfied with the food.

Everything was really extremely tasty. Service was very friendly. Small restaurant, reserve in advance.

It was perfect, I don't need to say anything more.

The food itself was tasty but just far too little. You will only be full if you take enough money with you :-)

Very nice atmosphere, very tasty food and super friendly waiters (especially Tim and Tam :))

This shop is simply a 10 out of 10. But you should always make a reservation otherwise you can quickly be unlucky and not get a seat. The food is delicious, the staff is super friendly and the location itself is a dream for every Japan fan and/or anime/manga lover. Simply recommended.

We were greeted very friendly, the two guys are really great waiters and extremely authentic. It took us a while to decide on the many delicious dishes. The spinach salad is absolutely delicious and the rest was simply fantastic. We were able to thoroughly enjoy the evening in the Japanese atmosphere, with friendly service and great food. Thank you for that :)

We have now eaten there several times. It was great as always! 😊

It's worth it because the food is very tasty 👍

Very good food and very attentive service. A really recommended restaurant.

It's not cheap, but not too expensive either. Every dish was delicious and the service was top notch!

Super nette Bedienung, Hervorragendes Essen. Ein Genuss auf ganzer Linie! Sehr empfehlenswert. Das Essen sieht nicht nur toll aus, es ist auch toll. Durch die kleinen Tapasportionen kann man viele kleine verschiedene Dinge probieren und muss sich nicht nur für eine große Mahlzeit entscheiden. Tolles Konzept!

Route Asian cuisine, delicious sushi, nice, quiet atmosphere, attentive and courteous service, good value for money. We recommend.

Very cozy little restaurant, Very courteous staff, the food is a dream. I would love to come back again

With one of the best restaurants in Magdeburg. Great food, nice service, suitable furnishings. A visit here is always worth it!

Simply great! The food is delicious and authentic, and the service is very friendly. Card payments possible, without reservation is also possible, but is recommended.

Small cozy shop. The young staff is very accommodating and the food is incredibly tasty. The same applies to starters and desserts. There are also sales outside the home.

I've been there four times and it's always been delicious. I'd love to try the whole menu.

Highly recommended! Delicious, great atmosphere! Definitely pre-order!

Simply awesome, thank you for the good food.🤝

Fantastic food and great service! Because the restaurant is not that huge, you should definitely make a reservation.

Delicious! Very nice service! Highly recommend

Really tasty! But really I had the problem that I can't eat that much. I would recommend everyone to try it. My favorite dish there was number 39. But everyone has different tastes but I just think it's delicious there and the staff is friendly and... It was also well designed and a must for anyone who likes Asian cuisine! I have to say I was there in the evening but I saw the lunch specials and definitely want to try them next time, everything sounded delicious and what I tried was also very tasty and nicely prepared, the one with the benches is also one cool idea.

The best restaurant in all of Magdeburg! In addition to the incredibly delicious food, there is a really nice atmosphere and the staff is more than accommodating! A real experience and we'll always be happy to come back :)

Excellent food and very nice staff. Always a pleasure to be there.

First of all, you shouldn't come up with the idea of ​​trying to get a seat there without a reservation. That's hardly possible.....!!!!!!!! The food is really extremely tasty and completely to my taste. Everything we ordered tasted great. I can only recommend.....!!!!!!!!☝️ The restaurant is very small but still cozy. The furnishings are a matter of taste but as we all know there is no arguing about that... .!!!!!!☝️😉

Decent ramen in the old town of Magdeburg near Domplatz. The shop is nicely decorated and offers a good selection of sushi, udon noodles and 2 ramen. Unfortunately, my Tantamen Ramen wasn't anything special, but the sushi was great. The service is nice, but unfortunately a bit slow. Clean toilets, card payment possible

We reserved a table and were informed on site that the table had just been allocated. There were 4 of us and we were on time to the minute! We left in a very good mood and will never come back.

Rarely have I eaten something so good and since I haven't been to Japan yet, I don't have a real comparison, but I think you'll hardly find it more authentic in Germany.
