Restaurant Paran in Berlin

very tasty food and good prices, but unfortunately waiting times too long. Ambiance is nice but a bit noisy as it was very crowded :)

Good restaurant with average classic Korean dishes. Cute environment!

One of the best meals I’ve had so far, this restaurant in Berlin truly impresses. The udon noodles, fried chicken, bibimbap, and crispy shrimp are fabulous.They always bring a complimentary appetizer, which tastes great. Always excited to eat there!

Food takes a long time, but once it's there it tastes really great. Staff is friendly, if a little slow and a little rude from time to time. But that only in rare cases.

Delicious food!! We left very happily full :) The service is kinda slow but Berlin has somewhat slow service, in my opinion. By this I mean it took us long to be able to order but then food arrived in good time. I have to add that the waiter was incredible! She was a machine, almost single-handedly ran the night service. Respect! Would definitely recommend.

Excellent Korean fried chicken! Very flavorful crunchy outside with moist and juicy meat on the inside. I ordered the fried chicken with sweet chili and sweet soy flavors, both sauces are great and impressive. The service is also friendly. Would love to try other dishes next time!

Amazing food and friendly service .. must try 🤤

If you are reading my review, please know that if I could give 10 stars to a Korean restaurant in Berlin, I would give it to Paran! Ok so, where do I begin.. The food? Phenomenal, specially their fried pork belly. So tender and delicious, it was literally melting in my mouth. The service? It was amazing as they gave us recommendations about the food and more importantly, they gave us sincere smiles, which was so rare to find in Germany. So yeah, 10 stars for Paran!!

super slow service. waited for almost an hour to get food. apparently they are in short on staff !!

Amazing dishes, extremely tasty and good service.

I had the Korean fried chicken, the sweet soy one and I really liked it! Ordered the spicy sauce on the side. I’ll come back to try other dishes.

Quite authentic tasting korean food

Very tasty chicken and good restaurant

Great food and atmosphere. Tiger Beer on tap!

What a great spot! We had the veg pancakes and fried chicken to start then beef Bibimbap for main. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff, would definitely come here again :)

Super friendly, competent staff and very tasty cuisine😊

From the starters to the main dish, and the staff. Everything went very well, A local nice restaurant in the heart of Neukölln

Very good little restaurant. The food was really tasty and the price-performance ratio was right. We would love to come back here.

Good authentic food, friendly service, fair prices. Whats more to want? 😊 Big fan of the fried chicken!

Absolutely one of my favourite place in Berlin. The food is so tasty and the staff are very friendly. The ambient make you feel really welcome!

The food is very tasty and the service is very friendly. Good Korean restaurant

Paran experience was just great. Many traditional Korean dishes and some fusions are available. The portions are very good. Very nice colleagues and card payments are also possible. Definitely recommended!

This Berlin restaurant is outstanding; I'd rate it 10 stars if possible. The dishes are incredibly delicious, the staff is really kind and helpful, and the menu is impressive. I can't praise it enough and plan to return soon.

Food was just edible while female staff was very kind.

Unfassbar gut! Fried chicken einfach ein Segen und Bibimbap auch sehr lecker!

lecker essen gute Preise nette Bedienung

Richtig lecker und nette Bedienung.

Lovely restaurant with a good selection of food to choose from! The Korean Fried Chicken was good, as was the squid. The pfannkucken and fried seaweed roll starters were great.

Love the fried chicken so much 🤌🏻♥️

Food is good, however, the service is extremely slow. We had to wait nearly 1 hr just to get our starters. Sorry, not acceptable.

Enjoyable dinner. I would have liked a bit more spices and authentic tastes but overall good experience.

Personal mit platzeinweisung teils überfordert. Probleme in dem 12 Stunden nach Nahrungsaufnahme, essen soweit lecker (was bringt das dann? :) ). Toiletten katastrophal, Türen zerstört, teils aus den Angeln gerissen. In Kreuzberg gibt es definitiv, auch in direkter Nähe, viele deutlich bessere Alternativen in jeglicher Form.

busy, not floorstaff+1 would have been helpful, limited vegan options, for flexible persons a lot of interesting options to choose from

Einige vegane Optionen verfügbar. Es gibt viele Sitzplätze draußen, das ist im Sommer echt schön.

We went because it was one of the Korean places that serve Tteokbokki. It was okay. However the pancakes were amazing, and so was the Bibimbap!! Highly recommend trying those. The restaurant wasnt very busy when we came so the food arrive quite quickly. The staff was very friendly and attentive.

So so so lecker … ich kann den Laden nur weiterempfehlen, es gibt so viele leckere Gerichte zu entdecken. Mein Favorit bis jetzt sind die Korean Chicken - Sweet Chili ….

It's July so we booked a table to then figure out it was inside. It took us 1 hour to be seated ouside. We ordered the fried chicken which was the best dish of the night and then we asked for a dressing, that arrived 30 min later, when we had already finished the chicken. The Kimchi Bokumbap was simply tasting of old reheated tomato rice with some kimchi in it, the So-Bulgogi was tasty. The price was slightly high for the standards. The service was a bit bad. I had digestive problems

Das Essen war authentisch und lecker. Aber ich hab noch nie so ein schlechten Sevice gesehen. Wir haben eine Stunde auf das Essen gewartet. Die Kellner waren inkompetent und sind gar nicht auf Wünsche eingegangen. Auch wenn wir den Kellner gerufen haben, hat er uns lange warten lassen. Essen kam auch falsch an und haben sehr lange gewartet bis das richtige Essen kam. Auch wenn das Essen lecker war, vermiest der Service schon die Stimmung. Daher nur 1 Punkt.

Sehr lecker und ordentliche Portionen. Es war viel los, daher hat der Service etwas länger gebraucht. Aber wir kommen trotzdem gerne wieder 😀

Will definitely come back. One of my favourite Korean spot in town!!!

The Korean Fried Chicken was amazing! 😍

The food was really delicious but immediately after eating me and my partner are both having severe stomach pain that is lasting till tday 😫 really upset about this 😢

Essen super, Service okay. Immer gut besucht von daher Zeit mitbringen

We tried the kimchi pancakes, the fried chicken and the beef! Everything was delicious, but the highlight was definitely the chicken! The staff was very attentive and welcoming. We will be back!

The food was great, i really enjoyed the korean fried chicken. Buuuuut the service was terrible. We waited for about 10minutes for anyone to approach us to be seated, same thing for ordering a drink while waiting. Then once we ordered, the drinks took ages to get to us and the food took upwards of 40minutes. Nobody spoke to us between waiting for food or drinks to ask about anything or mention the delay and apologize. I enjoyed the food, but would never recommend the place to anyone else on account of the poor service.

The food was very slow to arrive but nobody thought to let us know that this will be the case. Once the food finally arrived it was very disappointing. The bibimbap was cold and the japchae oversalted. The atmosphere was nice.

War zwei mal dort und hab dasselbe gegessen. Beim ersten Mal war es etwas besser. Aber ich würde nochmal kommen, weil es rundum alles passt.

Sehr freundlicher Service und das Essen 🍱 war makellos! Gern kommen wir wieder 🤩

Wir haben Bibimbap, frittierte Garnelen und DAK-Bulgogi zum Liefern bestellt, beides super lecker! Leider war die Soße beim Bibimbap etwas zu wenig und das Hähnchen beim DAK-Bulgogi zu groß geschnitten. Die Soße von den Garnelen war sehr lecker.

Basic Korean food, took over an hour to get it tho. They prioritize wolt over you. Not worth it.

We had military stew and fried dumplings, and while the military stew was tasty, it had a quite strong ketchup flavor that was different from the familiar taste I'm used to in Korea. The fried dumplings were crispy and delicious. The atmosphere of the restaurant was decent, and the staff were friendly. Overall price of foods is relatively cheap, so I recommend here! + Make a reservation before visiting 부대찌개랑 군만두 먹었는데 부대찌개는 맛있었지만 현지화가 된건지 케찹 느낌이 강해서 한국에서 먹던 익숙한 맛과는 좀 달랐습니다. 군만두는 바삭바삭해서 맛있었어요. 가게 분위기는 꽤나 좋아 보였고 직원분들도 친절했습니다. 치킨이 맛있어 보여서 다음번에도 방문할 계획입니다. 가격도 괜찮아서 추천하는 곳입니다. + 미리 예약하고 가시는게 좋아요

I've wanted to try this place for a long time but it is only opened in the evening, and often crowded. If going on the week-end, I'd recommend to book ahead. Foodwise, as a vegetarian, the menu is not that extensive. I found the starters overall pretty good, especially the Kimchi Jeon (Pfannkuchen), which we ordered twice. Mandus were also tasty. We also had the Cheese Tteok-Bokki (rice cakes with Mozzarella cheese topping in gochujang sauce), but I was a bit disappointed, found it a bit bland. I really wish there was a veggie version of the Fried chicken, maybe in the future! Staff was friendly and we were served rather rapidly. Prices are fair, especially for the area.

The food and the service in the restaurant is perfect. but to take away, the portion is notoriously smaller. I ordered two Bibimbap ; one had almost no rice, that's when I realized that the weight between the two was different :/

Super bad and careless service, rude waitress :(

Excellent service and good food!

Das Paran liegt nah am Maybachufer inmitten von Neukölln. Gerichte schmecken gut, aber als wir da waren war das Rindfleisch etwas zäh. Jedoch war der Reis viel zu ungar. Nachdem wir es angemerkt haben, haben wir neuen Reis erhalten, der diesmal besser war. Von anderen Koreanern habe ich gehört, dass sie das Paran gerne mögen, vielleicht hatten wir einfach einen schlechten Tag erwischt. Die Bedienung war freundlich und schnell, da gab es nichts anzumerken.

I have been here a few times already and can definitely recommend it. Especially the fried chicken is delicious and the food is well priced. Staff is always friendly.

love it! good food! service was very kind and well done!

Thought this would be yet another “Korean food for white people” but we were pleasantly surprised by the authenticity. Staff are friendly, the Kimchi jjigae and Korean fried chicken hit the spot 🔥 The bulgogi, however, was quite greasy and bland.

Modern interieur, authentic menu but slow and unattentive service. They forgot two dishes out of 10 and brought the kimchi zige with pork when it was ordered without.

The bibimbap was delicious. Next time I will try the fried chicken. The service was also great, the waitresses were so nice 😊

Leckeres koreanisches Essen, nette Bedienung, passable Atmosphäre. Preise sind in Ordnung

Best chicken I’ve ever had! Nice staff and atmosphere

Modernes Restaurant mit gutem koreanischen Essen. Personal war freundlich.

店內用餐等了很久菜才上來。 - 結果泡菜豆腐鍋太鹹 - 豬肉有個很可怕的臭味 - 豆腐炒冬粉的麵很鹹，但豆腐跟蔬菜都沒有入味 唯獨炸雞跟小菜好吃，裝潢設計很不錯。 只是食物不行，我不推薦也不會想再光顧⋯

The food is so delicious! I love it! You guys rlly need to try this food!

Rindfleisch hat nicht geschmeckt, billigware (?) nicht zart gekocht mit beigeschmack

Sweet place, very relaxing atmosphere and good food. We enjoyed our time there. Will go back definitely.

Mein Essen war sehr gut (Bibimbap), Personal überaus sympathisch und angenehme Atmosphäre. Komme gerne wieder! PS: Kartenzahlung war möglich (Dezember 2022)

Das beste frittierte Hühnchen, welches ich je gegessen habe. Das Tteokbokki ist auch sehr lecker.

I ordered via Lieferando and tried their Kimchi Jjiggae, seafood pancakes and bulgogi. Everything tasted great, a bit pricey but worth it. 2 reasons for the star reduction: first is the delayed delivery and second is stomach issues after ordering there for the second time. I believe the side order of their spicy kimchi wasn’t very fresh, unfortunately.

Ganz klare Empfehlung! Essen, Service, Freundlichkeit, Weine!!! Paran ist super!

Ein fantastisches Restaurant mit netten Service sehr gut zubereiten korianischen Gerichten!!!! Immerwieder ein Genuss!

Das Essen ist super lecker. Gerne wieder.

Great food, very nice atmosphere, friendly staff. We'll definitely come back!

Good authentic Korean food. Really popular food

Gutes koreanisches Essen in entspanntem Ambiente. Das Team ist sehr nett und die Portionen groß. Allerdings waren die Kimchi Pancakes für den Preis etwas basic.

The food was good. Specially the chicken based dises, bulgogis and chicken wings. The beef bibimbap was not bad. It took around 20' to get served.

음식이 맛있는데 서비스도 넘넘넘 친절한 곳입니다...! 김치찌개와 양념치킨 시켰는데 김치찌개는 두부맛이 중요하다고 생각하는데 두부가 미쳤습니다.... 그리고 양념치킨도 닭 자체가 부드럽고 정육 순살만 쓰는 느낌이에요. 양념도 이젠 한국에서 찾아보기 어려운 고추장 베이스가 강한 치킨인데 저는 한국에서 먹는 거보다 맛있다고 느꼈네요. 암튼 굿굿굿

김치볶음밥 너무 맛있었어요..💗 직원분들도 너무 친절하시고 여행 중에 행복한 한끼였습니다 ☺️

Feines koreanische Essen Freundlichen Personal, sowie faire Preise.

Korean fried chicken is here is the best!

Voor het eerst Koreaans gegeten. Het was er enorm lekker! Ook vegetarische keuzes 👌

Yachae Jeon AKA fried vegetables pancakes/patties are my new favorite next to a cold beer. The Fried chicken and calamari dishes were all super tasty. The service was very friendly. Not expensive. A Very pleasant surprise of a restaurant that we stumbled upon by accident

Solides koreanisches Speiselokal, große Portionen und eine freundliche Bedienung. Einfaches Ambiente und sehr gut besucht. Reservieren ist sicher vorteilhaft.

Delicious and very kind attention

Overall a must try and a hidden gem for korean food in Neukölln. Awesome service, good vibe, and generous portion. The chicken wings is a must try, Korean fried chicken is a must try and this place truly hits the spot.

Loved the ambiance, very cosy and clean. For a summer evening temperature was ok indoor. Service was friendly. Loved the pork belly, unfortunately the stake was not so tasty, had to ask for salt.

Best Korean restaurant in Berlin overall! The waiters are very helpful and friendly, they don't have a long waiting time. Sometimes it's better to reserve in advance since it can get pretty full on the weekend. The portions are huge, especially the fried chicken (a must try!) The sweet chili chicken spice is perfect and even with a lot of sauce it's always perfectly crunchy! The soy garlic aswell is so delicious! The pickled radish is my favourite though, crunchy, sweet and topped of with a perfect hint of vinegar! One fo the waiters gave me a lot pickled radish, what made me love this restaurant even more. They knew I love it and gave it for free! :)) Overall a must try! Will come here once a month for sure! Thank you dear Paran team! :)

살짝 이국적인 맛. 그래도 다른 한식당에서 먹을 수 없는 부대찌개를 먹을 수 있어 행복했어요.

Friendly stuff. Super delicious food I recommend making a reservation beforehand

I sometimes order the fried chicken from this place via delivery app and happily enjoyed. However, I got the radish pickle with extra larva as side today(just now). I even found some brown dark spots and dusts on the other pieces… Ain’t complain for the strange delivery hours or estimate delivery time for now. But c’mon, we have almost 40 degrees this summer and all the gastronome business relatives should take care a lot more of the food quality and cleanness. I’m so disgusted, feeling bad of scoring only one star here but this is totally unacceptable! I won’t order or visit this place anymore. Take responsibility of what you serve people!!!

+ Friendly staff and nice area - Not possible to pay with a card - Food lacked flavor

Food was really good. Big portions and not expensive.

Sehr authentisches koreanisches Essen. Wenn scharf drauf steht, ist auch scharf drin. Es gibt sogar einen Gruß aus der Küche. Sehr nettes Personal, auch wenn eine Bestellung vergessen wurde. Leider gab's keine Nachspeisen. Und Kartenzahlung war ebenfalls nicht möglich. Deshalb leider keine vollen Punkte.

Top! Pancake Kimchi perfect. Soju with sweet potato flavour. Empfehlung!

I was excited to find a place in Berlin to get tteokbokki, but I was really disappointed. Not spicy at all, very little flavor, generally bad!!

This place wasnt awful, it just something I wouldnt recommend to a friend. The service was slow. The food was sub par and not great, it left a lot of us feeling unsatisfied. But it was clean and tidy.

Amazing experience. Food was super delicious and also not expensive. Definitely a recommendation!

Visiting Berlin for the second time this year and my 4th time to Paran. The fried Chicken is really good, the staff and environment are super nice. I do recommend you do a reservation on google to make sure you have a place, because is always full.
