Tigermilch in Köln

Super delicious food with very unique dishes! Plus, the outdoor seating is fantastic.

Insanely good! I'm in love with the food! Thank you so much! We had the vegan dishes and it was fantastic.

Looking for something different from the "usual" fare? Then you've come to the right place. They offer unique dishes, all prepared fresh daily. The menu changes regularly, so there's always something new to try. Our meal was delicious. Since a lot of chili is used here, you should enjoy light to spicy food.

I'm blown away by this magnificent, exquisite, and high-quality restaurant. I've never been disappointed—in fact, it's always an absolute feast for the palate and a surprise at how beautifully the dishes can be presented. Love down to the smallest detail, which is reflected on the plate and can be tasted. I enjoy eating out often, but at Tigermilch, I simply know I can walk in blind—whether I'm there for brunch or fancy a fancy evening. My favorite drink is and remains the Basil Smash. I haven't found a better one anywhere yet. To have experienced Peruvian cuisine in this form is a great gift. The portions are definitely adequate for me as a woman, and the prices are absolutely reasonable. I feel almost at home there and always welcome. A million thanks to the team and a very special thank you to the kitchen! ♡

The food here is not only delicious but also visually stunning! Definitely Instagrammable!! But I'm more of a man of the common people, so back to the food: The beef was particularly delicious, and the cassava fries really surprised me :) I had a blueberry cocktail with it – it was a real blast, as it should be! The waiters were super friendly and gave us good advice :) As a little extra, there was an outstanding dessert, even though I was already really full, but it was worth it!

Absolutely great food and super service!

From the outside, Tigermilch in the Belgian Quarter makes a very nice, stylish, and inviting impression. I dined there in the evening and was greeted by a very friendly waitress who took the time to explain the dishes in detail. The prices are a bit high, but still reasonable for the ambiance and service. The ceviche was a bit soupy, and I missed the shrimp that I usually like in ceviche. Nevertheless, the presentation of the dishes was very nice and appealing.

We felt very comfortable in the restaurant. The drinks were delicious and I can recommend them as an aperitif. Each dish captivated us in its own way. My favorites were the octopus and the beef. The restaurant is very dog-friendly, and our dog, Loki, was very welcome.

We came here because of the good reviews and Instagram photos, but were very disappointed with the food. The octopus was old and dried out, the ceviche was rather mediocre, and only the beef heart skewers were really good. A shame. The service was friendly and attentive.

Food was large portions but mediocre, great service cannot fault and atmosphere very lovely.

Great place! Whether it's dinner in the evening or brunch on the weekend, the food is always delicious. The staff is very friendly and attentive, and you feel really comfortable. And the drinks, especially the Pisco Sour, are simply world-class! 🙌🏻

Delicious, exceptional food, attentive and super-friendly service. We'd gladly return.

The food was quite appealing in terms of taste and creatively presented – modern, well-thought-out, with high-quality ingredients. Those who appreciate small, beautifully presented, sharing-style dishes will certainly get their money's worth here. What you shouldn't expect, however, is Peruvian in the sense of Peruvian fusion cuisine, as it has developed in Lima or Cusco. The term "Peruvian" or even "modern Peruvian cuisine" unfortunately doesn't fit the content of what is served. Neither the preparation methods nor typical flavor profiles nor ingredients were captured, even in classics like ceviche, lomo saltado, or ají de gallina. The names are reminiscent of Peru, while the culinary experience is more like a European-inspired concept restaurant. In short: A pleasant evening with fine food – but anyone looking forward to a culinary journey to Peru will be disappointed.

Very tasty, but if you're expecting authentic dishes, you'll be a bit surprised. Definitely an experience.

Breakfast was great 😍 highly recommended!

Went when it was busy. Exotic menu and tasty food

Tigermilch continues to impress with its lovely atmosphere and excellent pisco drinks! However, during my recent visit after a long break, I noticed that the quality of the dishes had declined somewhat. What a shame!

Fabulous food and pisco sours Superb place wish it was in the UK

What a great place with excellent sharing dishes that were reasonably priced. Definitely worth a meal there and sit outside and watch the world go by.

It was nice...a bit hectic atmosphere...I think a place for young people...young at heart...

Very tasty, good service, varied menu and good location.

Nice staff and easy communication. Food was really good, diverse in taste with a wide range of flavours. Compact menu with dishes for every diat, without compromise.

Nice shop, friendly staff. The food is beautifully presented, but I personally didn't particularly enjoy it, especially because it was too salty. It's also too expensive for the restaurant's standard; for two people, it's easily €100 or more.

Delicious food with peculiar extraordinary taste.

Excellent food, very friendly team, clear recommendation

Love this place. Even though it's often crowded. But that's justified.

The food was incredibly delicious. The menu is small, so we tried half the menu. But every dish was excellent and unique. The atmosphere was super relaxed and pleasant. We'd gladly return.

Amazing food. I love this tapas idea.

Nice environment, great attention, I recommend to book a table in advance.

Unfortunately, it's not my kind of place at all. The food wasn't really anything for either of us. We had ordered a large selection and were excited. Service was really nice, and the location was great too. It's a shame, but unfortunately, there was nothing.

Incredibly delicious food, fantastic service. I'll be back ❤️

Great, unusual food, very nice, cozy - not overly kitschy - shop, great staff, we will definitely be back ❤️

Excellent value for money, very tasty food and very friendly, attentive service.

I love it. Peruvian food like in Lima. Great ceviche and pisco sour.

Great food, delicious, and beautifully presented. We sat outside and had a wonderful time.

The food—I had two plates—was delicious and authentic. The service was very friendly and explained everything to us. Two plates aren't necessarily filling, but it's still a great way to get acquainted with the food. The restaurant is in a slightly higher price range.

Simplemente maravilloso. Platos fríos y calientes con un sabor asombroso! E incluso la "Enselada de la casa" es maravillosa. Definitivamente un must try

Great restaurant. Very good variations of Peruvian food on offer

We were a large group and everyone was extremely satisfied. The food was absolutely amazing. The only aspect I didn’t love was the decoration: it felt a bit too plain for a Peruvian restaurant. That said, I understand the style is meant to be more refined and minimalist, rather than colorful or traditional. It’s purely a personal preference, and it didn’t take away from the overall experience, which is why I’m still happy to give 5 stars.

Nice Peruvian restaurant. We had dinner here in April 2025. The welcome was good and the service was friendly. It was busy. The interior space was noisy. We had a nice meal and drinks. The wine list is small but sufficient. The wine was very tasty. The food is very nicely seasoned and the dishes are very diverse. Definitely recommended to eat here.

Leuk Peruaans restaurant. Wij hebben hier gegeten in april 2025. Het ontvangst was goed en de bediening was vriendelijk. Het was druk. De binnenruimte was gehorig. Wij hebben lekker gegeten en gedronken. De wijnkaart is klein maar voldoende. De wijn was erg lekker. Het eten is erg lekker gekruid en de gerechten zijn zeer divers. Zeker een aanrader om hier te eten.

Tasteful, imaginative and colorful. The best descriptions of our experience. Really delicious, just like the chardonay from Peru. We thought it was a shame that the cold and warm dishes were served at the same time. And chef, pay attention to the salt can. All in all it was sometimes just too savory. Nevertheless: absolutely great.

Special food, great presentation, taste explosion and really pleasant and very attentive service! Nice location to have a great evening with friends!

So we can't join in here. The portions were very small and far too expensive considering that they were advertised as “tapas”. You have to take at least 2 pieces, so you can easily get 15/16 EUR per piece. We had chicken which was tiny with a small bed of rice. Didn't taste much like chicken and the price was way too high. Luckily we ordered a salad, otherwise we wouldn't have been full. It was good, but also small and 10.50. Peruvian cuisine has so much more to offer, the selection here was clear, I really had a hard time finding something. Service was friendly, but overall found it impossible! Too expensive, too bad. We won't be coming back and can't recommend it either.

Excellent wine and food (we tasted the fish crudités, the salad, the chips) but it is not a place where you can have quiet dinners because there is a lot of noise due to the large influx of people

We were very satisfied with all the food and drinks. Service was attentive and polite. Gladly again! The only comment would be that the Yuca Fries were a bit dry and salted too lightly and the pieces in the cervice were too coarse for me personally.

Delicious food and the best Pisco Sour in town! The recommendation is 2-3 dishes per person and I can confirm this. You should reserve in advance.

Not that cheap but very tasty. Rather smaller portions to share, but has the advantage that you can try several dishes :D

Friday night is busy, like almost everywhere in Cologne. The service was friendly and reasonably quick, but we waited a full hour for the really salty and overpriced food. The value for money isn't adequate.

Phew... it was so delicious. I've been wanting to go there for a while... and the wait was worth it. I thought the portions would be smaller... more like tapas... but the plates were actually quite large. We had a total of 7 plates for 3 ladies, and that was more than enough. Everything was delicious... absolutely everything!!! No one needed any seasoning, the flavors were just spot-on and perfectly balanced!! My girlfriend is very picky about food, and practically every dish on the menu had ingredients she didn't like... but even she thought it was WOW! :) Drank Pisco Sour for the first time... incredibly delicious... The service was all super friendly and attentive. The team is perfectly coordinated and vibrant. The ambiance is loud and lively... I love it🤭 We'll definitely be back! Thanks to the great team, including the kitchen.

Amazing flavours, we were a bit too excited and ordered 3 portion per person. We coulant finish because portions are big! I recommend the ceviche especially.

Everything we ordered was delicious. I will order them again, especially the last one. I will think about this dinner experience a lot. What we got: • Ceviche Clásico • Ceviche de Topinambur (vegan) • Quinotto (vegan) • Papa Pachamama (vegan) • Aji de Gallina The vegan dishes were unexpectedly very good. It‘s impressive. The place was also cosy and while it was full that night and people were talking loudly, it‘s still possible to have a nice conversation. The staff were nice too.

Very tasty food. Really creative and good.

Very very very *very* tasty and totally friendly service. Worth it!

Tigermilch in Cologne is a fantastic spot for flavorful, high-quality food. The dishes are packed with rich, well-balanced flavors, but the beef was the absolute highlight—tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. A must-visit for anyone looking for a great dining experience in the city!

The portions were small and expensive and we waited over 30 minutes for our food to be served.

Place was nice and cosy. Food was delicious. Only things I have to say was that the ceviche chifa of tuna wasn’t really a ceviche for me, was more like a tuna tartar. And the other thing was that I don’t think that the idea of 3 dishes per person attaches to the reality, with 2 dishes is more than enough. Last thing was that I didn’t like that they bring all the dishes at the same time. We waited for too long until all the food came at the same time, it is better in my opinion to bring whenever dishes are getting ready.

Top service and above all what a treat! Dishes to share with original flavors. Great place to recommend!

Good restaurant with tasty food and good cocktails. Relatively small dishes of which you are served 2 or 3 at the same time. Good way to taste many new dishes. Prepared with love and very tasty. Recommended!

Simply outstanding. Best quality. Both the drinks and the food.

La mejor comida Fusión Peruana Japonesa de la historia, excelente Maracuja Pisco agria y gran personell! Carne, pescado y platos vegetarianos son muy recomendables, las salsas son divinas!

We really tried Peruvian cuisine in many places. This one is one of our favorites. The food is really creative (although I can never get enough of the classic ceviche) and the pisco sour is outstanding. We would love to come back again and again.

We had dinner here with a group of six people and really enjoyed the food! Haven't had such a good meal in a long time. Many different dishes to share (also vegetarian) and each dish has its own special taste. Definitely recommended to go!

The food was very tasty and the dishes were great to share. The menu is varied. If you don't like spicy or spicy, it's best to get advice from the super friendly staff on site.

Very tasty and creatively interpreted classic Peruvian food!

The best peruvian restaurant i went to. Really great food and super friendly people

Great restaurant with sophisticated food, delicious Pisco Sour and friendly service!

Nice atmosphere, but quite noisy, we ordered ceviche, lomo saltado and causa, the ceviche had good flavor, the lomo is not a traditional lomo saltado (if you are Peruvian don't expect a lomo saltado as you know it) the same with the causa, it is not nothing like that. But the 3 small dishes I tried were very delicious, in their own style.

Un restaurante peruano muy agradable escondido de la calle principal. Los platos eran muy sabrosos y auténticos. Es muy agradable encontrar un lugar donde la comida se prepara desde cero con un toque de sabor.

Very nice and courteous service and even better food...we tried 6 different dishes and everything was somehow special...special 😋 delicious...not to mention the Pisco Sour...just great! Keep it up!

Very tasty dishes, Peruvian cuisine, interpreted in a modern way. It was quite crowded and therefore very loud.

Great ambience and super nice service. The food was excellent and very special.

Great food with great service. We had a wonderful evening with friends. Highly recommended!

I can't stop raving! Really great creations, super diverse and creative! Above all, a large selection of vegan options! Service was also very friendly, good selection of drinks, always changing menu! You definitely have to make a reservation here and go!

The three of us were there for the first time and we were very impressed. The small but nice menu is exciting and everything was very good! We particularly liked the steak and the octopus. Everything was super tasty and beautifully prepared! What you should know: The portions are rather small, we shared a la tapas which was lovely. The kitchen closes at 9 p.m., not bad, but you should know 😊 The drink selection was also good, including Peruvian beer and a pisco sour! I will come back

Unfortunately I can't agree with the good reviews. We had 5 dishes and we only really liked the ceviche. The beef was tough, the octopus was way too well cooked and the cassava fries were so dry that we could hardly get them down even with mayo and left more than half of them back. It's a shame, the pictures and reviews were promising. However, the ambience and service are good. Overall, I think the price-performance ratio is not right here.

The best Pisco Sours and Basil Smash I know 👌

Best bar/restaurant in all of Cologne!

Very nice staff, great evening, thank you very much! Jorge in particular was outstanding!!

Small, interesting dishes. Fine cocktails. I particularly liked the cassava fries with spicy sauce. Be sure to reserve on the weekend!

First visit and definitely not the last! Friendly service, good advice on the dishes, great food!!! Well coordinated, good quality, I'm very impressed. Any time again and clear recommendation. Be sure to reserve

Excellent food and super friendly staff. The prices are justified for the quality you get. I'll definitely come back.

Der Besuch im Tigermilch war alles in allem sehr gelungen. Der Service war schnell und sehr freundlich, ohne aufdringlich zu sein. Die Bestellungen kamen sehr schnell und alles gleichzeitig. Das Ambiente einfach, aber durchaus gemütlich, passt zum Konzept. Das Essen war insgesamt gut, einige Gerichte waren wirklich richtig klasse und überraschend, anderen fehlte es an Pfiff und Würze.

This place is always super busy and after finally eating here I get the hype. All dishes we had here were delicious, a twist on traditional classics but retaining the general flavor profile. Lomo saltado was the standout for us, very different from the usual versions yet steak and mashed potatoes were perfectly prepared. Leche de tigre in the ceviche was too acidic, but fish tasted fresh. It’s a bustling place inside, loud and the tables quite crammed together, and I wouldn’t say it’s very charming. But would definitely come again for the food. Pisco sours were in my opinion too sweet.

I just have to say, great. I didn't have high expectations for last night. Trying out a new restaurant, Peruvian of course. But what we were served was simply great. The meat was juicy and tender to the point, the sophisticated sauces were all super tasty, the Manjok fries were crispy, the fish was a dream. In short, a meal that can be served in upscale restaurants without blushing. And at moderate prices. What made the evening so great was the young service team, nice, courteous and knew every dish. No question remained unanswered.

Phantastisch food, super delicious and lightweight. Something that you would not expect and you wouldn’t eat every day so that it stays special. One of our favorite places in Cologne. Definitely worth it and priced decently.

A “must visit” in Cologne. The food was incredibly good and so harmonious. The cocktails are also highly recommended. We will definitely come back!

The food was very tasty and special! Unfortunately we had reserved for the wrong day, but they still made a lot of effort to provide us with a place! If I visit Cologne again, I will definitely come back!

Unfortunately, it is heavily oversalted, difficult to digest and very expensive. Not a great experience.

A great restaurant with exceptional food to share and very attentive and friendly staff

Great food with great service! We'd love to come back. 😜

Dieses Restaurant ist der absolute Hammer. Mit ihrem Konzept und den peruanischen Speisen mit leicht asiatischem Einfluss hebt es sich von der Menge an Restaurants deutlich hervor. Das, was hier geboten wird, ist aus meiner Sicht schon fast Sterne Niveau. Für den Service reicht eine fünf Sterne Bewertung schon nicht, aber leider kann man da nicht mehr Stande vergeben. Vor allem mit Carlo und Philipp hatten wir unglaublich viel Spaß und tolle Ansprechpartner. Wer also das besondere sucht, ist hier genau richtig

Although as an experienced food critic I am rarely impressed, Tigermilch Kitchen pleasantly surprised me. Despite the initially somewhat cool reception, the cuisine here shows true skill. The ceviche is simply exquisite, the freshness of the ingredients incomparable. Each dish reflects the team's culinary talent. For true foodies, this restaurant in the Belgian Quarter is an absolute must - it stands out from the crowd. My recommendation: Be sure to reserve in advance before the crowds arrive. A small piece of Peru has found its place in the heart of Cologne and impresses with its authentic taste. ❤️

Wow, Tigermilch Kitchen really blew me away! Okay, so the reception was a little cool at first, but guys, don't let that put you off. The kitchen is absolute madness! 😍👨🏼‍🍳✨ I really just wanted to play companion and not eat anything (diet, you know), but these flavors completely threw me off track. Every single dish was a blast! The ceviche? Heavenly! The fresh ingredients? A dream! Honestly, I couldn't stop trying. Diet? Forget! That was so worth it. If you're in the Belgian Quarter, you MUST go here. Give your palate the chance for this fireworks of flavors. Tigermilch Kitchen simply rocks! Absolute recommendation from me – you won’t regret it!

Absolutely super delicious food. Top service. Unfortunately on the day I was there it was only served outside. Which wasn't so pleasant. Due to renovation work on facades and garbage cans... (I would have liked to sit inside)

Food was really tasty, I thought it was a bit too expensive And I think it's a shame that it was only open outside...

My friend and I had the most incredible meal at Tigermilsch, made all the more enjoyable by amazing service. Perfect Pisco Sours to top it all off! Recommend wholeheartedly.

Food was great. Only if there are 7 of you and everything comes at once then there is little space on the table :) .

Was there on a warm summer evening. We sat outside and had something to eat. The food was delicious and the chef even came to the table for a chat. Drinks, food and service were great. Prices are also great. Thank you for the lovely evening.

Nice Cerviceria in Cologne. The food was prepared fresh and visually appealing. Tends to be a bit too unbalanced. One of the cevices tasted extremely sour. Nevertheless: overall tasty and recommended.
