Seoul Kitchen Restaurant in Nürnberg

The only decent dish out of the 5 dishes I ordered was the kimbap. Mandu was ok but could've been store bought because that's how generic it tasted. Bulgogi contained 25% beef at most and the rest, veggies. Japchae was the same. 25% noodles and the rest veggies. Korean Fried Chicken was the biggest disappointment. 25% of the KFC allegedly contained meat, the rest of the fried chunks were either breading, fat/skin, or cartilage. I am quite embarrassed as a Korean from Seoul to have experienced this meal.

No idea why it’s got over 4 stars. When ordering a meat dish there should be edible meat in it. Not mostly fat and veggies. Disappointed as this is not typical Korean. Only positive i can say was the kimchi and bonchon are on point die beste. Even the jap Che didn’t have any meat and hardly any noodles. Would not recommend to anyone.

Delicious and spicy. The numerous Korean guests say a lot.

Super tasty Korean BBQ. Very friendly service staff. The ambience is rather boring, something more could be done here.

Food was very good, but way too expensive. There were four of us so we ordered the barbecue for four, but only got it for two. When we reordered, everything was added to our bill. In the end we paid €140 for 5 portions!! This is crazy! Ambience seems more like a canteen... It's a shame, but not a recommendation.

Ordered Galbi platter for 4 people, got meat for 2-3 people (according to the waiter). Meat was reordered and 5 Galbi plates and another side dish were charged. Absolute no-go!

Great place food is tasty and service is outstanding

Very good, handcrafted food. The facility doesn't seem very inviting to me. The service was attentive, if a little uncoordinated. The price-performance ratio was good.

Very tasty, authentic food. Had such an awesome Korean BBQ, it was really nice. Bulgogi is really tasty.

After reading other reviews, I completely agreed and visited this place. I really sympathized with the feeling of steam rising when I opened the lid of the stainless steel rice bowl. Kimchi maintains the true traditional Korean taste, and pork belly also tastes exactly like Korea. Korean food was like a sweet treat during our two-week honeymoon. There is no shortage of traditional Korean flavors in Nuremberg.

The food was very good, you can't say anything about it. I can't judge whether it's authentic or not. Unfortunately the whole place seemed a bit dingy, the corner seat where we were sitting was incredibly dirty, the cards were tattered and really unpleasant to touch. It's a shame, there really could have been more. The small amount of soy sauce in the starter was inappropriate, more is only available with a recipe?

Great food and service. Their bibimbap is one of my favorite dinner option in town. It feels very authentic. The one downside, you food will smell like barbecue if you stay inside.

Absolutely recommended. Very good food and very friendly service.

We were there recently for the first time and were completely surprised and convinced! We had the Korean Fried Chicken and it was the tastiest thing we've tried in Nuremberg so far because the sauce is simply amazing and the chicken is super crunchy! Clear recommendation to every KoreanFriedChicken and sauce lover and anyone who just likes to eat well :) yeah (the kimbap was also very tasty!!)

Great food!!! Relatively loud because it echoes in the rooms.

Ich kann die Seoul Kitchen wärmstens Empfehlen. Das Personal ist sehr freundliche und zuvorkommend. Das Essen ist extrem lecker und die Atmosphäre ist super. Ich kam unvermittelt am Restaurant vorbei und es war kein Tisch frei. Mir wurde umgehend angeboten kurz zu warten und es wurde die Möglichkeit hergestellt das ich kurzfristig einen Platz erhalte. Ganz große Klasse von Service-Team! Ich bin sehr zufrieden!

Seoul Kitchen is an absolute gem for anyone craving authentic Korean cuisine. The food is not only delicious but beautifully crafted, with every dish made with precision and care. The flavors are rich and genuinely authentic, making it clear that this is as close to true Korean food as you can get outside of Korea. The restaurant itself is stunning, with a modern interior that perfectly captures the Korean style—it’s a warm, inviting space that feels authentic from the moment you step inside. The staff are incredibly welcoming and attentive, making the entire dining experience even more enjoyable. However, make sure to book a reservation, as the place is often fully booked due to its popularity. The drinks, just like the food, are authentic and complement the dishes perfectly. Seoul Kitchen is definitely a must-visit for anyone looking to experience top-notch Korean cuisine.

50€ for 300g of pork belly and a few lettuce leaves can't be beaten in terms of audacity. Unfortunately not recommended!

It was a really fantastic evening. The food tastes very, very good and the service there makes you feel like you are in good hands.

Super delicious Korean food! The best we've had in Nuremberg so far, nice and spicy

Authentic Korean dishes. The service is just super friendly and accommodating. Really great. The food tastes very tasty and I have to particularly mention the vegetarian and vegan selection. There is something for everyone here. I would love to eat there again.

Super delicious and authentic cuisine! Fast/friendly service and the atmosphere invites you to linger. Especially in winter! Always my pleasure :)

We were there with 4 people and ordered up and down the menu for 155 euros. Totally overpriced for the portions, ambience is a total failure. As if you were eating in the canteen, the room is like an old restaurant but not one of the most beautiful. We ordered the most expensive bbc, the most expensive of all, be careful, normal portion p.p. 25 euros, but you get meat, a handful of salad, onions, other small vegetable side dishes, so you had to put it together yourself and it was also way too spicy. So that everything just tasted the same. Unfortunately it remains a unique experience for us!! If you like Korean food, you should order something and test it at home because you can actually take the smell from the restaurant into the car, home and put it in the laundry basket as there is probably no ventilation. These are our impressions of the evening.

Tofu kimchi and kimchi stew are delicious.

Delicious - best to reserve - bibimbap In the second generation, Korean food is served here that comes close to the experience of Korea. The two of us spontaneously got a place for the weekend (otherwise we urgently need a reservation!) and can particularly recommend the bibimbap - the hissing of the rice is an experience in itself.

Super tasty and authentic Korean food. I always like to come here or even go twice!

We have been here many times in the past 8-9 years. After changing the boss, the taste has changed a little, but it is still acceptable. We came here for dinner this week. The focus is to eat Korean food. The side dishes are free. In the past few days, I didn’t overcharge. I ordered Korean beef BBQ today for 43 euros in total. It comes with rice and side dishes. When I checked out, I added kimchi for 5.5 euros and the other 3 side dishes for 8.5 euros, which is simply outrageous. We are very angry. Over the past 8-9 years, we've come here many times. After a change in management, the flavor has changed a bit, but it's still acceptable. This week, we came here for dinner on a whim. The main reason we came was for Korean food, where side dishes are usually free. For the past few years, we were never charged extra for them. Today, we ordered Korean grilled beef for 43 euros, which came with rice and side dishes. However, when we went to pay, we were charged an additional 5.5 euros for kimchi and 8.5 euros for three other side dishes. It's simply outrageous. We are angry. In den letzten 8-9 Jahren waren wir hier viele Male. Nach einem Wechsel des Managements hat sich der Geschmack ein wenig verändert, aber es ist immer noch akzeptabel. dem die Beilagen normalerweise kostenlos sind. In den letzten Jahren wurden uns dafür nie zusätzliche Kosten berechnet. tzlich 5, 5 Euro für Kimchi and 8,5 Euro für drei weitere Beilagen berechnet. Das ist einfach unverschämt. Wir sind sehr wütend.

Koreans eat here. That alone is a pretty good sign.

Fui allí con mi mejor amiga y pedimos unos aperitivos, pero llegaron muy tarde y fue el orden equivocado a pesar de que lo dije repetidamente. Cuando les dije que nos dijeron en qué parte del error y que él preguntó, pero no le importó. Cuando por fin conseguimos nuestra comida se olvidó de traer un plato con el plato principal y la cuchara. Esto fue realmente una mala experiencia. Los trabajadores son mal tratados y no reciben propinas porque el dueño siempre recibe el cheque muy triste. En general los trabajadores son agradables allí, pero el propietario no lo es y realmente lo hizo una mala experiencia y también el servicio fue un 0 / 10 para mí. La comida es demasiado cara, te recomiendo que solo cocines comida coreana en casa en lugar de ir allí.

Great stop in Nuremberg. Delicious and authentic Korean cuisine. Attentive staff.

We have been here several times. The food is really delicious and is very close to what you can order in Korea. However, prices have risen significantly. An upward adjustment is understandable to a certain extent due to inflation and the economic situation. However, I was quite surprised when I received the bill. We had Korean BBQ among other things and asked for additional lettuce leaves to wrap the meat. We were then given about 5 or 6 lettuce leaves, which were charged at a whopping €3.50. To be honest, I find €3.50 for a handful of lettuce leaves quite excessive, which in retrospect makes me think a lot about the pricing at this restaurant.

When I travel to Switzerland, Austria, and Germany, I always stop by a Korean restaurant in each city to soothe my greasy stomach, and this one is by far the best. I also left a 10% tip and it wasn't a waste at all.

Hello. I used to give this restaurant a definite 5 because I really had nothing to complain about. However, the last visit was a disappointment, here are the reasons: -The four of us left over €120 and actually left hungry. We ordered the most expensive Korean BBQ for €25 per person. -We only received the cutlery upon request. -No napkins, we would have to get them ourselves from the neighboring table. -When we were asked about the quality of the service and were honest (and nice), there was just an awkward and uncomfortable silence; in principle, they simply didn't talk to us at all. -There were dishes piled up on the table and not cleared away. -I could mention a few little things, but I think it's already enough of a reason.

Zu kleine Portionen, man wird nicht satt. Servicequalität hat sich extrem verschlechtert. Teller und Flaschen wurden vom Tisch nicht abgeräumt. Besteck erst auf Nachfrage bekommen. Keine Servietten bekommen.

A really great experience and real Korean cuisine that wasn't available in Nuremberg before.

The BBQ portions are definitely small! There were 5 of us and we all had the same opinion. €28 per person for such a small portion and one drink per person is quite too much. The food was okay, I have to be honest.

The idea is good and the dishes are very authentic, but the implementation is not quite successful yet. Someone who has never tried Korean food will not really be able to find their way around the menu. It would be nice if there were pictures on the map or more information. And larger font is also desirable. I can highly recommend the Korean Fried Chicken. That tasted really good. I was, however, very disappointed with the drinks. Juices taste like cheap fruit juices from the supermarket that have been stretched to the maximum with water. If you're in the mood for Korean food in Nuremberg, you're welcome to try it here. Across Germany, there is better Asian food, especially for the price. Nevertheless, the staff tried very hard to make sure we had a nice evening. The staff were really very friendly and always asked about us.

Very cozy Korean restaurant where you just have to feel comfortable. Very attentive and friendly service, who are always there to give you advice if you don't know what to do next or have an extra request. I ordered the Dwaeji Bulgogi (which unfortunately there is no photo of because I simply forgot it - I was too hungry ;)), Kimchi and the Hotteok with ice cream. And it was just incredibly tasty and very authentic. We'll stop by again the next time we visit Nuremberg. :) Thanks for the great food!

Absolutely recommended. Food great, staff nice

Simple atmosphere but authentic. We liked it so much that we would like to come back.

I'm no expert in Korean food and I don't think it's anything super innovative, but it's true that what I ate seemed very tasty. He Dwaeji-Bulgogi was marinated pork with vegetables and rice as an accompaniment, it was spicy, the way I like it, and at the same time sweet, I really liked it, they served it to us with some vegetables marinated in different ways as an accompaniment that were also very tasty. The Gun-Mandu were like Gyozas, also very delicious, and the fried chicken, well, just fried chicken. The place itself does not shine with its decoration, and is not at all impressive in that regard. We were on the “terrace”, which overlooks the street with a bike lane between the tables and the restaurant. So it's not "chic" at all, but hey, it's not all about pretending. The food is good, which is the most important thing. The service was good, no complaints.

Food grade 1 as always, then the children had a round of mochi ice cream on the house - very nice, thank you 🤩

Food was delicious. The service could not be better. Staff was really kind and communicative.

This is where you really stimulate your taste receptors. What do you do with the fruit in this kitchen and how well thought out the distribution of food is in this culture is breathtaking.

new culinary discovery Korean food, good and tasty.

Service, friendliness and language skills still have room for improvement We were invited to dinner there, 4 people, table reserved well in advance. When we arrived (2 people) we were greeted by a young woman (German, probably a temporary worker) who, after informing us that we had reserved, offered us two tables to choose from. She then took our drink order. Shortly afterwards the two other people arrived and the drama began. The food and the remaining drinks were served by an Asian woman, but she is or was more or less unable to speak German. Normally at an Asian restaurant it is enough to say the numbers, even this was not understood and the dishes had to be shown on the menu. The remaining drinks and only three place settings were brought by a young Asian man. He then also brought the starter soup, but three pieces even though we only ordered it once. The main courses were served very staggered and one was completely forgotten, which is probably why the three soups and only three place settings were used. The fourth place setting had to be pointed out several times and the last meal only came when the others had already finished. The young man was also very unfriendly towards us. It has been confirmed once again that when several people serve a table, things go wrong because one of them doesn't know what the other has already done. If you don't speak German and are also unfriendly, you definitely won't see the guests a second time. It would have made more sense to have the entire order taken by the employee who understood and could speak German. Poor language skills are enough to serve. Experience gastronomy of a different kind. Meal. P.S. There was nothing wrong with the quality and taste of the food.

Super good, very authentic Korean cuisine, super friendly service… always happy again :-)

Food tasted good, presentation could be improved. Price/performance could be reconsidered at €25 for the main course. Service was friendly and helpful.

This is a “real” kimchi stew that is like a ray of light for travelers who survive on sausage and bread. It’s really delicious. The pork belly was the best. Everyone was so kind that it was even better! Considering the cost of eating out in Germany + Korean food + pork belly that is hard to eat, I am satisfied with the price!!☺️☺️ May you prosper!!😍😍 It was so delicious that I would recommend it to my friends who are going to Nuremberg later!! Eat well!!!

The moment you walk in, the smell of grilling bulgogi stimulates your appetite. I ordered bulgogi instead of the menu I originally thought. The seasoning was so salty that it was a bit difficult to eat. They say it's because it suits the tastes of German people. I went to a German restaurant and ate there several times. I've never eaten food that was that salty. However, all employees go around the table from time to time to check the situation. I really liked the fact that they responded promptly to questions and requests from customers.

Rude arrogant male service staff who thinks ignoring customers is a normal thing. Confusion about the takeaway prices which do not match the ones indicated on the bill. Explanation given: “we have not yet updated the prices on the menu” and at the end asked to pay by cash.

A place where persimmon stew tastes better than Korea

Even though there were many reservations for Friday night. Generally friendly. The taste tended to be a bit sweet, but it seemed like it had to be that way to cater to locals. In general. It was delicious. Stone pot. Tofu kimchi. Kimchi stew. I am thankful for the Korean food I missed on the 7th day of my trip to Germany. I also gave it to the team that didn't ask for it. I enjoyed it. May you prosper~~

Found this place on a whim, we were watching a YouTube video on Korean fried chicken. Went to this place and was not disappointed, family and I would 100% recommend going!

Das Essen (Südkoreanische Pfannkuchen [5], Bibimbap [8] und Feuerfleisch [12]) waren einfach köstlich. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist fair. Eine halbe Vorspeise plus ein Hauptgericht hat auch mich als guten Esser mehr als gesättigt. Das Personal war freundlich und die Küche schnell. Klare Empfehlung!!!

I went there because it was a Korean restaurant and had good reviews, but it was hard to find any friendliness, the food was salty, and the atmosphere gave me the strange feeling of being racially discriminated against by Koreans. Also, for the first time in a Korean restaurant in Germany, tips are required!

This is the second time we have come to this restaurant. The first time was 3 years ago. This restaurant is always as good as it was 3 years ago. We ordered grilled pork belly and stew with chives and tofu. They are very tasty and the gift is quite special and authentic. If you want to try Korean food in Nuremberg, you should definitely come here. You won't be disappointed with it. Don't forget to reserve in advance, otherwise you may not be able to get a seat.

We reserved seats online for 2 people. That also worked very well. The staff is super friendly and can explain the dishes to you. We had 2 starters and 3 main courses as we wanted to try a lot of things. The leftovers (which were really a lot) were packed up for us, with a smile. When paying, my friend said that the tteokbokki was too spicy for her, and we were then told that we could always adjust the level of spiciness when ordering or that we couldn't order the rice cakes spicy in a soy sauce. It's not the cheapest restaurant, but we found the prices reasonable. It should be said that the restaurant used to be a typical Nuremberg inn. And there are still the surrounding benches and the toilets are like before, but clean.

Super good food, top service. It's just a bit dim in the room every now and then because of the Korean barbecue. We'd love to come back.

We ordered several dishes, all delicious, large portions. I recommend it to locals and travelers.

I was missing Korean food so I stopped by. The meatball was spicier and more delicious than expected.

I got sick after eating soft tofu stew yesterday. I don’t know if it’s because it’s spicy. As someone who has a very strong intestine, this is very painful.

Were there with several people last week, two people always have to order the same dish, mixing different BBQ dishes is not possible. Pancetta with lots of gristle and flavor only from the sauce in the dip. Somehow you don't eat enough for a lot of money, although a lot of different things are served with it, something more for the palate than to fill your stomach. Service is very friendly, ambience is rather simple and ok.

Super delicious food. Absolute recommendation!

Delicious. Super friendly staff. We have been there many times and always enjoy coming back.

Very good authentic cuisine. Friendly staff Ambiance can be built. Price/performance very good, would be happy again.

It's more German than Korean, but it's a good Korean restaurant to try overseas.

The price-performance ratio is very bad, not so great quality and it happens that the bosses are very stingy

There are definitely better restaurants in nbg 18.50 for a beef bowl with 3-4 pieces of meat in it.

I've been looking for a Korean BBQ in Nuremberg for a long time and was thrilled with this restaurant. The food and service were great and we would love to come again :)

Incredibly delicious, authentic dishes. Very quick service, and on a Saturday evening. Absolutely recommended. The boss seems very nice.

The food was great, however, the restaurant really needs to install proper ventilation in the room. At one point three other tables ordered table Korean grill. Soon after the whole restaurant was filled with smoke. It was so bad that some started to cough. Finally, waiters opened the restaurant doors and windows. All of our clothes and hair smelled strong Korean grill after.

The food is really tasty, the service is friendly. The fried chicken is highly recommended as a starter (for 2) or main course. There are also dishes that are served with a hot stone so that you can fry them to your liking on the spot. I think that's great, but I also have to make a small point of criticism (more of a warning). Since I work in a kitchen myself, I notice this less and therefore it doesn't bother me. However, all my friends complained about the resulting air in the guest room. Well, whatever. Maybe some of you still remember the time when people smoked. That was worse and we still went out to eat 😄. Conclusion. Just test it out, it's recommended.

Super delicious food. They went to the kitchen a little too quickly, I had the main course warmed up again, it came when the starter wasn't even half eaten, but it was full and we hadn't made a reservation, no problem.

Great food and fast and nice service

Very nice workers and delicious food

The first time with a Korean. I was very skeptical at the beginning and was totally surprised. The ambience, the friendliness of the staff and, above all, the food was amazing (Korean barbecue). Give it a try, you won't regret it.

Very good Korean food! Korean fried chicken is awesome!

You have to pay under 20 euros in cash… But otherwise everything was quite good. Eat tasty, but a bit spicy... The prices are higher, unfortunately. Quality good. Very friendly.

The food was super tasty and the service was very nice! Worth a visit.

The food was delicious and the service was friendly and attentive. I'll definitely be back!!

My companion and I came to the restaurant without a reservation, but we still managed to get a seat even though the place was very full. We were greeted and served very friendly, the food was a 10/10 and the portions were just right for us. We will be back definitely!!

Nice little restaurant. Best Korean food in Nuremberg and the surrounding area.

I was there many years ago and was very enthusiastic back then. Yesterday's visit confirmed everything again. Very tasty and beautifully presented dishes, the staff was very accommodating and kept asking us how it tasted or if we needed anything. Highly recommended, we will definitely come back.

It is a small restaurant and suitable for group up to 6 people. Meals is quickly served and tasty. I love KFC , Gimbap and Beef dishes here. It is smell inside because of grill , would better with more fresh air.

We were there on a rainy evening, we didn't make a reservation, so they said we were welcome to sit and order, just because. After ordering, some dishes arrive, we haven't even eaten yet, and a friend of mine's dishes aren't even ready yet, the waiter comes to us and says we only have about 20 minutes to eat???? The further reservation comes in around 8 p.m. ???? 😡😡 what should we do now?? We must have eaten everything very, very quickly. Before 8 p.m., he comes to us and said reservation is already canceled ??? What kind of trick is this when you have a lot of guests? If there is no table available, we are willing to come back another day, but don't do this to another guest! Bad !

Of all the dishes we ordered we found Japchae the best. Even our child enjoyed it. We were looking forward to tasting the famous Dolsot-Bibimbap but it was a bit disappointing. It was surprisingly full on a Tuesday evening and really loud. The service was always with a smile.

The staff is so incredibly friendly and the food was amazing. And it was no problem to bring our dog. Thank you!

Great Korean food. My experience was excellent. I recommend the cooked kimchi and fried chicken

Friendly service in the cute Korean restaurant with authentic cuisine. Whether Mandu, Japche, Kimbab, Korean Chicken or Bulgogi. Everything very tasty!

Unreserved recommendation! Very nice atmosphere and delicious food!

I’ll keep this one simple: excellent food of high quality and actually authentic Korean food I was very very happy to see this!! The place was a lot of fun with people as all Korean places usually are. The down side is the service is very slow it’s hard to get things napkins drinks etc etc…however, I would not let that plague me from returning to this restaraunt because it was that good! I just recommend asking for extra napkins and things like that right away with your initial drinks and keep the table prepared, organized etc for all the big stuff to come.

Il mio ristorante preferito della città! Cibo ottimo, porzioni abbondanti, personale attento e gentile, atmosfera accogliente. Ci sono stata 4 volte in 2 mesi da quanto sono rimasta soddisfatta.

진짜 맛있게 잘먹음 속 따뜻하고 칼칼해서 찐×1000으로 위안이됨 1달 여행 중간쯔음이라 한국음식 너무 그리웠는데 게다가 맛있는 걸로 먹어서 너무 좋았어요♡

Echt toller Koreaner! Chung erklärt einem auch genau, wie man diese tollen und exotischen Speisen essen soll. Ein Wahnsinns-Erlebnis, wie in Korea!!!

总体来说对我和我的老婆是一次糟糕的体验。 食物方面，客观来说是非常不错的韩国美食，味道也比较符合我们的口味，想去体验韩国特色美食可以考虑这家店。 服务方面是让我感觉体验最差的地方了，点餐时候叫他们好几次都没人理（当时店里就我们一桌），以及我和我的老婆因为来吃饭之前已经喝了很多红酒所以没点饮料，点餐的那个人（一个圆脸略胖的韩国人）居然充满质疑的表情问我们为什么不点饮料，我想喝就喝不想喝就不喝，有必要和你解释那么多吗🙄 结账时候也是同一个人，我们因为糟糕的体验所以决定不给小费，结果这个人居然用愤怒的表情质疑我们为什么不给小费，你自己不会照一下镜子看看你这服务值得小费吗😅 建议这家店改名叫为什么餐厅，因为店里的人太爱问为什么了：为什么不点饮料，虽然我服务差但是你为什么不给小费😄

Süßes Restaurant, das gut von der U-Bahn aus erreichbar ist. Das Essen ist authentisch und lecker gewesen. Das Chicken war aber leider lauwarm. Das Ambiente könnte noch etwas koreanischer sein. Die Mitarbeiter*innen waren sehr aufmerksam und freundlich.

sehr authentisches koreanisches Essen. Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen. Vor allem wird alles frisch zubereitet, was man auch am Geschmack merkt. Hat auch ganz viele Speisen auf der Karte, die man bei anderen asiatischen Restaurants nicht findet.

Wir waren gestern zum ersten Mal dort. Das Ambiente war sehr angenehm und der Service sehr freundlich. Wir bestellten als Vorspeise einmal Korean Fried Chicken (absolut empfehlenswert) und als Hauptspeise Kimchi-Eintopf und den Bi-Bim-Bap Eintopf. Das Essen war frisch zubereitet und hatte eine sehr gut Schärfe. Wer noch nicht koreanisch essen war (so wie wir) sollte diesen Laden unbedingt ausprobieren.

Vielleicht liegt es am Transport, dass das Essen nicht so schön aussieht. Das Beste ist wahrscheinlich das Korea Chicken, es ist nicht scharf, aber ich wünschte, es könnte knuspriger sein. köstlicher Bibimbap-Reis. Allerdings war das Bulgogi-Rindfleischgericht zu salzig und die Kimchi-Suppe zu scharf. Es gab nur wenig Panchan-Essen und nichts davon war köstlich
