Tsukiji in Köln

Unfortunately, we had to wait over 45 minutes for our food (no appetizer, main course: udon noodles). Overall, it seemed a bit disorganized. Perhaps this was due to staffing issues. The udon noodles tasted quite good, but lacked seasoning.

The food was full of oil and not tasty at all I was really disappointed

Good food and a pleasant atmosphere. Due to its popularity, advance reservations are highly recommended.

Second time - great, both times we got a table for two without a reservation. Very tasty, very fresh, with a good selection.

I love the sushi and the atmosphere and how they design the dish. Not only pretty but also delicious. I just wish to sit under the cherry blossom tree. Hopefully next time💖

Sushi was good, chef’s recommendations also good but noodles not so much. Small portion and did not like it so much. Service was really nice though. A little bit of bathroom smell in the dining room

We received very poor advice and treatment from the waitress. The price/performance ratio is absolutely not right. There's no point in going here. It was, for us, a complete disaster.

First of all, the food is excellent; there's nothing to complain about. However, when I eat at a Japanese restaurant, I expect the staff to be Japanese as well. Here, the staff is from Thailand, or at least from the region. I can't say whether the chef is Japanese, as we didn't see him. His food, in any case, was truly delicious.

Unfortunately, I'm very unhappy with my order. I've never gotten anything like this for €30 before. It's a shame.

Everything was great, and I really mean that! I'll definitely be back.

Best sushi of my life, definitely recommend it!

Four of us were there on a Thursday evening. It was a good thing we had a reservation. People were queuing up afterward. The service was very friendly, attentive, and fast. The food was excellent. The sushi is freshly prepared for each order. Everything is fresh and beautifully presented.

It was truly a pleasant experience, not just because of the atmosphere enhanced by the abundance of wood and decorative elements. The staff is particularly attentive and customer-focused. 🥰 The food was simply delicious, both the sushi and the menu :) We had a cocktail with yuzu, which went perfectly with it!

The sushi tasted excellent and was also beautifully presented. It won't be my last visit. 😊

It was our first time eating there. The food is amazing. Very, very tasty😋 People, go there for dinner. The service is🥰 I say that as a man.

Super delicious food, super nice overall. We were there yesterday to celebrate my birthday, perfect restaurant wall. Beautifully presented, I'm thrilled.

You are the nicest shop in the world

The most delicious gyoza I've ever eaten! Perfect with that peanut sauce. Great service. I'll be back.

Exceptionally Good - On All Levels We visited the restaurant spontaneously and were not disappointed. Great atmosphere with a concept that we found exceptionally well-executed. The food and drinks were consistently very good and we were truly impressed. The service was very courteous, and the wait times were reasonable for a spontaneous visit. We'd be happy to come back.

We love coming here. Very tasty sushi. Very good service.

You wouldn't expect to find such a good Japanese restaurant in this location, and from the outside, the restaurant doesn't look the best. But the food has never disappointed me. The ambiance and service are also top-notch! Highly recommended!

I've eaten delicious food many times. It was even more delicious here. And the atmosphere was incredibly beautiful!

This place was recommended by my friend but we were disappointed after having dinner here. To be fair, the sushi were good and the place is beautifully decorated. - we ordered homemade lemonade for our kid and it was with vodka (gladly, my husband tried it before my son did) - we were sitting in the inner yard and my chair was wet (and my back as well) - one of the dishes we ordered was udon with duck breast which it was generously sprinkled with chilly and we could not eat it at all. I am not sure we are coming back

Unassuming from the outside, but once you step inside, it's completely different! The atmosphere is super nice, and the food was delicious. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. We'll definitely be back again :)

You have to get to know it personally and try it

Delicious and authentic Japanese food, freshly prepared and beautifully presented. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is cozy – we'll be happy to come back!

I haven't eaten at such a good, authentic restaurant in a long time. The food was delicious, and each dish was special in its own way. The ambiance is lovely. 🍱🍣 I've never seen such friendly and attentive staff before. We always enjoy coming here. I highly recommend it.

Our favorite restaurant in Cologne. 🥰 We've been here four times now, and we're always impressed! From the service to the ambiance and the sushi, everything is just perfect. Coming here is always a special experience, like a little escape to Japan. 😊

Really fantastic place, all three waiters we integrated with were super friendly and sweet, the food was really delicious and beautifully served, the surroundings were really beautiful and authentic. The facade / storefront does not reflect at all how nice and good the store is inside, they need to fix that so more people will open their eyes to how nice a place it is.

Incredibly delicious, it was hard to decide what to choose. We'll definitely be back!

Highly recommended! We were lucky and got a table without a reservation. Otherwise, we recommend making a reservation. The food was delicious and absolutely fresh! Unfortunately, part of our order was forgotten. But ultimately, this didn't diminish the quality of the food. We would come again!

The food was delicious, especially the udon and sushi, and Hunganh was super nice to us, unbeatable service! 🫶🏽🤩

We were turned away despite having a reservation (which was required).

The food was excellent. And the service was even better, shoutout to Hunganh. Will definetely come back. I recommend the japanese udon with crispy chiclen.

Great Japanese restaurant with a lovely, varied menu: delicious appetizers, salads, soups, Japanese main courses, and a great sushi selection. The service is very attentive, fast, and extremely friendly 👍💯 We felt very comfortable and will definitely be back 👊🍀😎

Delicious food with a great atmosphere and excellent service. I'd love to go back! ❤️

My boyfriend and I discovered the shop spontaneously and were very positively surprised 😊 One of the best sushi shops in Cologne, if not the best

Best Japanese fusion cuisine I've ever been to! I highly recommend the octopus and the matcha tiramisu. The sushi is always beautifully presented, especially when you order multiple rolls together. The food is incredibly delicious, and as soon as you enter the restaurant, you're transported to another world, completely oblivious to the hustle and bustle of the Zülpi.

Very tasty food! Friendly people and good value for money.

Very nice decorated sushi spot with nice tasty dishes, however location doenst help, we had bad luck and could smell weed (people were smoking outside) inside the store, slow service, better go with reservation

Very delicious food. The interior design is really nice. -1 star because we ordered tea with the sushi and tea arrived a lot later than the food. Beside that highly recommended!

Beele surprise when pushing the door which, at first glance, does not sell the dream from the outside. The setting is Magnificent 🌸 decoration worked in its details, background music. Professional and friendly service. The price is very reasonable because the quality is excellent! Fresh raw fish, and tasty noodles! Bravo for this winning combo 👏🏻!

The service was really nice, but unfortunately, the food overall didn't taste like much. The edamame appetizer was very soft and barely salted, and the salmon sushi unfortunately had very little flavor either.

Incredibly delicious. I went in with low expectations, as I didn't seek out the restaurant this time. I've walked past it several times before, but never really paid attention. Thank goodness my brother picked this place out. It was truly one of the tastiest Japanese restaurants I've visited in Germany so far. Tsukiji is definitely in my top 3 list of Japanese restaurants. I was absolutely thrilled. From the grilled octopus to the tender duck breast and sushi, everything was excellent. And for four people, I think the price we paid was justifiable. Thanks for the experience 🥰

We loved it. Small, cozy, great sushi.

The food, service, and atmosphere were top-notch. The best miso soup I've ever had. The cocktails are also amazing!

All in one extremely great restaurant. If you like Japanese, this is the perfect place!

Very friendly service, amazing sushi and a great atmosphere!

The best sushi in Cologne. Other restaurants in Cologne have very simple decor. Tsukiji has a real Japanese feel.

Very good food and friendly staff.

The food is great, and the visual appeal is pleasing. I highly recommend making a reservation!

I just love this place! Sushi is always the best and they are always very friendly even when you are with a little kid.

Everything was delicious, but I wouldn't order the ramen. It's not a ramen place.

Tsukiji truly offers the best value for sushi! After downsizing the menu, they even lowered the prices, which is fair enough. I think that's great! The sushi tastes simply incredible, is beautifully presented, and the service is excellent. I always enjoy coming back! The large room at the back looks a bit odd, and sometimes it smells a bit unpleasant.

Delicious sushi options and really good udon noodles. The interior decor is also impressive.

The food is so good and reasonably priced too! The service was also very friendly, so highly recommended.

3,5/5 I had high hopes for this place after seeing so many glowing reviews and viral videos, but unfortunately, the sushi just didn’t live up to the hype. The spicy salmon roll was underwhelming, it was salmon-flavored cream inside than actual salmon, which was disappointing for me. As for the Dragon Fire with flambéed salmon, the smoky flavor completely overpowered everything else on the plate. What really surprised me was that there was no wasabi on my plate at all. It’s a small detail, but one that matters when you’re expecting a full sushi experience. On a positive note, my first homemade drink was actually quite good balanced and refreshing. That’s why I ordered a second one, but that turned out to be a mistake. The second round was like a sugar bomb, almost undrinkable. Overall, not a terrible experience, but definitely not what I expected given the buzz.

Everything was very tasty and nice, but it could have been a bit cleaner

it was my birthday and i couldn't imagine a better dinner with my loved ones! the food really was perfect we ordered the mixed plate for 4 with a little adjustment over the one on the menu, we told the waitress that we liked tuna and she was happy to change a few items to add them to the plate with no extra charge. other than that the atmosphere was pretty cool and different than we're used to also the service was quick and the staff where always smiling and making us feel welcomed. top 10/10 place totally recommended.

Absolute disaster! The ambiance looks inviting and the service is friendly, but if you ignore all the plastic decorations on the food, which make it look quite attractive, it's like any other sushi restaurant. The difference: the sushi tastes of nothing, just like the other dishes... not even the wasabi was fresh... it was the worst sushi I've ever eaten... what a shame

This is the best sushi restaurants.should try sushi and smoke duck,

Fresh, top-quality sushi, a stylish ambiance, and excellent service – a true highlight! Highly recommended for all lovers of Japanese cuisine.

Not a traditional japaness sushi place. The menu has a lot of modern/Vietnamese style sushi, lots of deep fried stuff. We had ordered Karaage, and it was with minced chicken meat, very oily, tasted nothing Japanese. Sashimi is very average quality. The waiter complained that when we didn't order more main dishes in our first order, we ordered 3 side dishes 2 6 of sashimi and one roll. We wanted to check the quality of the food first, and we were happy we didn't order more. It was a very disappointing experience.

Mediocre sushi for full price. Definitely stay away from fried items, they're way too oily. The miso soup and kirin on tap were good.

Delicious food, unfortunately very few options without milk, very friendly and attentive staff

Food was crazy good, totally exceeded my expectations

Highly recommended. Unassuming from the outside, this small restaurant is totally authentic. You feel like you're on vacation. The wait has potential, but it's worth it 👍

Great service, food was good, good quality and selection

My boyfriend and I had our first date here in 2022, and then we celebrated our first anniversary there. Since then, we've loved eating here. We've tried a few dishes and drinks, and without exception, everything was incredibly delicious, fresh, and soothing. There's a nice selection for vegetarians, and the tofu is fantastic. The staff were very kind and friendly on all our visits. You feel very comfortable there. The decor is lovingly decorated, and the music is pleasantly soft, allowing you to unwind from everyday life. Please don't change anything; the place is great just the way it is! I highly recommend the matcha dessert. We had shrimp dumplings, veggie gyoza, Hokkaido curry, and Shaolin tofu. Simply unbelievably delicious! Thank you :)

Very delicious food. The selection of appetizers is very varied, the ramen was delicious, and the matcha tiramisu was the perfect ending.

Very friendly welcome. Dine-in is possible without a reservation. Entrance is at ground level, making it very wheelchair accessible. The food is delicious, and you'll feel like you're transported to Japan for your stay.

the sushi was fantastic, with fresh ingredients and taste amazing! we ordered the spicy salmon roll, tsukiji inside out (which was our absolute favorite) and surf n turf (fried shrimp roll with rib-eye steak). the matcha tiramisu for dessert is to DIE for, so creamy and not too sweet. service is also fantastic 10/10 would come again :)

This was the best sushi I’ve had in a long time!! Specially recommendable was the Drachen Fire and the shrimp tempura!! Amazing quality and the price is even affordable. The service was very nice and attentive too. All in all, a wonderful experience

Amazing welcoming staff, great sushi and Sake!

What a random found after a business meeting. Great Japanese restaurant. Everything hits the spot

The waitress was professional and spoke great English and was helpful in providing answers to our questions. The prosecco was a bit flat, not much bubble, but other than that all the other dishes were awesome. Fresh and tasty. Octopus was cooked perfectly and its sauce was great. Sushi rolls were also nicely presented.

It was our first time at Tsukiji and we loved it right away. Great atmosphere, friendly service, and good Japanese food. Definitely worth a visit!

Everything was great! The food, the service, the ambiance. We can highly recommend it!

Great restaurant and food, nice service ! A pity that they didn’t have the cod that was replaced with salmon. But the tofu, octopus and other authentic dishes were all delicious. I really recommend the food and quality. I just want to give a little advice here because it is a pity to leave out a detail that ultimately can spoil the whole impression. We loved the interior but please clean up the spider webs on the facade and from the windows on the ceiling (they are full with it!). And these were just above our table.

Great! The food tastes truly delicious and is prepared with great care. There's a wide selection of Japanese dishes. The attentive service is particularly impressive.

You've made my week! I've decided to travel alone, unfortunately my stay in France didn't feel too good. So I decided to go to Köln. First stop: Tsukiji! The friendly service of the waiter made me feel very welcome. The service was great. And the food not only looked delicious, it also tasted great. (The rest of my stay in Köln was also great!) Thankyou Tsukiji, thankyou friendly waiter and thankyou Köln for making me feel welcome and saving my holiday! 🙏

I ate at Tsukiji with my company yesterday. Unfortunately, there was a misunderstanding regarding the reservation. However, the staff reacted quickly and arranged tables for our large group. The food was fabulous, and the service was also very polite and attentive. The ambiance in the restaurant is exactly what you would expect from a good Japanese restaurant. I would definitely go back.

The food was extremely tasty. I had the duck with vegetables and mashed potatoes. I would even give more than 5 stars for the food. What I like about the ambience is that the tables are nice and big and that you have a lot of space. We had reserved for 4 people.

Nothing to complain about, everything was fine.

One of our favorite shops in Cologne! Fantastic food and first class service.

The service was very friendly, the food was delicious and I felt extremely comfortable there.

Very very tasty food and good portions. It was even very cheap thanks to the lunch menu. The waitress was very nice and we felt very comfortable. The equipment and the music made it easy for us to switch off and feel like we were in Japan.

Attention, dishes labeled vegan are not vegan! According to the allergens they contain egg, when I asked if it was really vegan they said yes.. with the sushi “vegan inside out” I then asked if vegan cream cheese was used for it (because according to the menu it uses cream cheese) and the answer was no but you can leave out the cream cheese then it is vegan... In addition, we had to wait a long time to order and pay and unfortunately we couldn't eat at the same time because the dishes were ready one after the other. Unfortunately, I absolutely cannot understand this incredibly good review of this store.

The staff are lovely, the sushi is incredible and by far the best!

The food was super tasty, both for vegetarians and for people who eat meat and fish. The service was very attentive and friendly and the atmosphere was also very nice, so you feel very comfortable. I would especially recommend the vegan gyoza as a starter.

We were there this afternoon. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Unfortunately, my girlfriend wasn't feeling well and the food was packed for us. Fair prices and absolutely amazing sushi! We will definitely come back! :) ps. the vegan gyozas are completely wild!!! definitely try it!

Been there multiple times. The staff are nice and the food is amazing.

Great Japanese restaurant with the best sushi I've ever had. Everything is really well decorated and the service is very friendly. If I were from Cologne, I would come here often.

It was fantastic. Always happy to be there. Place under the cherry tree is completely romantic

It was delicious. But the portions can be larger

The best sushi we have ever eaten and we often eat sushi. In addition, the food was served to us in a very special way. Both me and my friend really enjoyed it. The Shaolin crunchy rolls are a must have. The service was very attentive and friendly and the location is also really nice.

We went to Tsukiji in Cologne for the first time and were thrilled! As soon as you enter, the restaurant impresses with a beautiful, authentic ambience that creates a cozy atmosphere. As a starter we chose edamame, which was served very fresh, warm and perfectly lightly salted - simply a delight. There was also a lemon-ginger tea, which we can warmly recommend: aromatic, fresh and just right. A special highlight were the gyoza – we have rarely eaten such good ones! The dumplings were unusual in shape and color and, together with the homemade dip, a real taste experience. For the main course we ordered the sushi platter for two people. The presentation was a real eye-catcher, including a dry ice effect that made the experience even more special. In terms of taste, the platter was an absolute highlight and offered a great cross-section of the menu - perfect for first-time visitors like us. The service was outstanding: super friendly, fast, attentive and simply warm. We felt completely comfortable. Clear recommendation! We'll definitely be back - you more than deserve the 5 stars!

OH my god, the food was incredible. The service was amazing and if i could give more stars i would.

One of the best Japanese restaurants in Germany

Great restaurant! I've been there twice while I was in Cologne. Everything was excellent both times! Delicious food, large portions, fair prices, and very friendly staff! The place looks very unassuming from the outside, but it's super cozy inside!
