YamYam Berlin in Berlin

Very expensive compared to the food quality

Very nice service and food was exceptional :)

It was the first time I ordered Korean food, I ordered delivery and my order was not complete. Honestly, the gimpap was not delicious. I don't think I will visit the restaurant.

Food authentic and tasty, staff very friendly.

Love the food, very flavorful! Highly recommended!

The atmosphere is good and staff also

Tried Zampong, which is a spicy seafood dish. Was very tasty. Moderate spice levels for people used to Indian food. Update: Tried Spicy Bokum with fried pork as well, and blown away by the taste. Had to just finish even the last tidbits off!

Supplier couldn't find my address. Never again

We ate on site. Since we like Asian food, the dishes on the menu were very appealing to us. Beautifully authentic. The waiters were also very polite, friendly and helpful. Even though there was a lot going on during our stay, they took the time to inform us about the dishes and give us advice; at no point did we feel uncomfortable or “handled down”. And the food served based on their recommendation was simply amazing. So I can only recommend YamYam. Would definitely come again.

Delicious food in a casual atmosphere, pleasantly attentive service, would be happy to come again at any time. Thank you very much.

Cozy little Korean restaurant in Berlin city center (Mitte). We had Kimchi and Gim as starters and Bibimbab and Bulgogi as main dishes. We really enjoyed it. Restaurant was fully crowded but still the Service managed to be there on-time when needed and very friendly. The Korean Ginseng Tea was very good also. Highly recommended!

If you like good Korean food, this is the place for you. Always my pleasure.

"Myself and other six friends recently had the pleasure of dining together and I was blown away by the delicious food and friendly service. Food was absolutely amazing – the flavors were perfectly balanced, and the presentation was stunning. The staff (sonia)was very attentive and helpful, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves Korean food."

Ordered via delivery service, after 3 hours. An unclear information via telephone call with the final dismissal of the conversation. No refund, no service, no agreement... I can only recommend everyone to order somewhere else!

Nothing much to say except that you get everything you expect. Friendly and fast service as well

Delicious and authentic Korean cuisine. Highly recommended. Unfortunately there is no Korean beer.

That was delicious. Kimchi is love, Kimchi is live!

The foods are very good and worth to try. They don’t have so many kinds of foods but what they offer are really nice and I always want to go and eat something. The restaurant is quite busy.

We visited here on Nov 12 and ordered seafood pancake, Kimchi Stew and Chicken Bulgogi and all of them were so good. The service we received from waitress was also good. Only thing we found inconvenient was that there was no water service. (I googled afterwards and seems like it’s not legally required to provide water here in most of Europe. If someone is from North America just like us, be aware that you need to actually PURCHASE water and it’s pretty pricey as a water)

Food and service was very delicious. Unfortunately no chicken options.

Cute Korean corner, lots of veg options available, friendly staff. I'd suggest to go there before 2pm because of the lunch promos, which are ideal to try more from the menu.

Super tasty and lots of variety. We will definitely come again.

we were here last weekend and it was pretty full, nevertheless the staff were super friendly and arranged a table for us! I usually take the Bibimbap here as its fantastic but I tried the glass noodle soup. Holy this was amazing! Quite spicy though but great flavour! Perfect for cold days. The ambiente is quite average, pretty simple and cold, but well the food is top!

Too bad I live in Paris; otherwise, I would have gone to eat at this restaurant every day. I loved it—a place with incredibly delicious dishes. I’ll go back to Berlin just for this restaurant! Thank you for the warm welcome! Thank you for everything; everything was perfect! ❤️❤️❤️

These are scammers, they brought me things I didn't want, I definitely don't recommend them, they threw away the order and ran away. They didn't answer the phone when they finished their work.

Mein Freund und ich haben dort Bibimbap gegessen. Als Vegetarier hatte er ebenfalls super viele Optionen. Das Personal war auch total freundlich und hilfsbereit, obwohl es sehr voll war. Auf das Essen mussten wir ebenfalls nicht lange warten. Wir können es nur empfehlen! :)

Food was good. Service very nice

We had to wait 3 hours for our order, we were informed again on the phone in 15-30 minutes, after 30 minutes another call and the same thing again and again. Food was correspondingly cold. So just bad!!!

I visited during my trip and I think I will come again. I think it's worth it to have food of this quality in a place like this with a view like this. I came across the old price on Google Maps. I felt the power of time being strong, but I also used the bathroom and the day suddenly became cold and chilly, so I just sat down while looking for soup. 13.9 euros The earthen pot felt a bit small. First of all, I don’t know how to evaluate the taste. It's just as delicious as you would eat anywhere else. But in Korea, even if you order beef stew, which usually costs about 15,000 won, it is full of water and doesn't have much substance. The contents of the earthen pot are just full. It contains enough meat to keep eating large chunks of beef. It contains vermicelli, eggs, etc. It was a good meal and I am grateful.

Very cute restaurant with very tasty food, fair prices and very friendly staff. It is a bit small so reservations are recommended during peak times. There are also many vegetarian/vegan dishes, which was very appealing to me. I was very happy with everything and would love to come back :)

Love this place for years, super tasty authentic food. The prices went more up but I always come back when I am in town. Love the spicy dishes, especially the seafood soup, yum

The food is extremely delicious, I had the M2 for lunch. But the portion could really be a bit bigger, even for someone like me

Ambient was great and the service was really fast. The food was good, but I would try other plates in the future. The service staff was nice!

Very nice discovery. Very friendly staff and delicious food

After waiting almost 2 hours, my order was simply canceled without giving any reasons.

I don’t think this is a Korean restaurant. Korean restaurant in name and menu only You have to pay to order all the side dishes. This is my first time at a restaurant like this I'm angry that this kind of food is recognized as Korean food. How delicious is Korean food? Koreans should not go

I have mixed feelings about this place. We ordered Bulgogi Dobbab - an aromatic dish, but it had a lot of rice and little beef. Tuna gimbab - a total disappointment, a small, not very tasty roll. Hot Ddok - trace amounts of bean filling. I consider the prices to be very high in relation to the quantity and quality of the dishes. Portions are too small. On the downside, the toilet was very dirty. On the plus side, short waiting times and fast and efficient service. Despite this, I won't come back here again. You can get cheaper and tastier Korean dishes in Krakow.

Food was super tasty but lunch menu portions were really too small. Unfortunately we didn't get enough and then 13.50€.

Thanks! Food was delicious. Service nice.

Really nice, small shop with nice staff and good background music. The selection of cocktails was mega.

Very cool! Food was very tasty!

I used to like this place but unfortunately the service and their attitude was disappointing and unprofessional. Beware of the tuna bibimbap - tuna is from the can. Disaster. EDIT. As a point of clarification to the owner’s note: - Disappointment is not anger. Reviews are intentionally public to keep business accountable. - Restaurant’s staff first blamed the kitchen and said it wasn’t their mistake, wouldn’t apologize. The other staff member then served all our delayed meals to the wrong table (again!). - We never asked for free snacks and we didn’t eat them anyway. The drinks the owner is referring to - was a bottle of homemade sparkling water YY is charging €4.8 for (hardly a huge discount on a nearly €60 total) - Serving canned tuna on a dish that is supposed to be fresh made is appalling when you’re paying €16.5 for its

Avoid this restaurant - worst service ever. This restaurant only accepts card payments, but their POS system or card machine wasn’t working properly. I tried using three different cards, all of which failed for no reason, and they didn’t even explain why. My cards have never had issues anywhere else. In the end, I had to pay in cash, and they didn’t provide change. Instead, they asked me to go get change and even demanded that I leave my phone or ID as collateral, as if I was going to run away without paying. This was extremely insulting and unprofessional behavior from the staff. To make things worse, when it came time to pay, one server told me I had to wait for another server to complete the transaction. But the server who had originally taken my order had already left the restaurant. The server who eventually came didn’t even refer to my order and just entered an amount without showing me the bill. I trusted the restaurant, so I didn’t ask to verify the amount, but the whole experience felt like they were deliberately making things difficult for the customer. I’ve never encountered such rude and appalling service in any restaurant. The food was terrible as well. The kimchi pancake was burnt and not crispy at all, with a very poor texture. The beef soup was salty and greasy. It’s not worth the price.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at YamYam, a delightful Korean restaurant in Berlin. However, while the overall experience was fantastic, I found the rice and funchosa to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I prefer a more savory or neutral flavor profile, so this was a minor disappointment.

Decent Korean food. The staff was very nice and friendly and the portion size was decent.

I ordered a bulgogi for 15€ and only got rice and noodles and one piece of bulgogi meat. What the hell is that?

Incredibly delicious food!! Everything we had was great, but dessert in particular is highly recommended!

I've been eating there for years and recently went to eat again. What's sad is that I noticed that the prices are going up and the portions are getting smaller and smaller. Service are OK. The restaurant is generally very put together, so there is almost no passage. However, I don't come back anymore because of the prices and the portions

The food is really good and waitresses are also kind and very friendly to guests. I really recommend this place. Just one cons that price is a bit high but food is delicious

Super good! Abundant and tasty dishes. Some options seem a little expensive to me (16, 17 euros) but they can be okay given the result. Nice large menu with lots of choices. For lunch you can opt for the menu with main, starter (12.13 euros). The only note that I would review towards the customer is making them pay by card and standing there explicitly asking if they want to leave a tip. It can be intimidating. Apart from this and the slightly high price, everything is ok!

Summary: just yam, not yam yam; ok food with friendly service at an affordable price Best dish: yet unknown Dishes (- negative / = ok / + positive): - Jukgaejang (beef noodle soup): the beef was very chewy, not pleasing at all; the soup base was ok, but somewhat bland Service: + the service was very friendly Price: = ok price for value at €13.9 for the soup, which comes with additional rice Atmosphere: = simple interior design in a nice old building with nice ceiling; more fast food style + WiFi My rating system - i focus on the food first and foremost. I aim to be truthful and try not to be biased by friendly service or other circumstances. 5*: excellent - I am rigorous in handing out 5* ratings 4*: good 3*: ok 2*: bad 1*: terrible

Decent food, but complicated menu and unsatisfying problem solution. The menu lists a lunch option and the hint to ask for vegetarian option. The question was answered with "we only have chicken". After serving the dishes, it turned out that there is an alternative lunch menu option and the chicken dish was actually not the only option. Unfortunately staff was not willing to change the dish for the other option.

Great food. Korean food, good liquor, good location in the heart of Mitte on a Berlin food mile. Nice service, very accommodating. Been here several times now and certainly not the last time.

Amazing and patient staff, our friends ended up being delayed by 15-20 mins and the staff were patient with us. We picked this place after reading a blog about Korean food a d this place dint disappoint at all. They have some good selection of dishes with nice flavors. All of us enjoyed their basil and popcorn ice creams. Can’t wait to go back again!

Me and my two friends went there to eat after a day long of working and SUPER hungry on 21.09. One of my friend told us that ate at this place after we got seated that the portion for bibimbap was small and we should definitely get extra rice.. then we told this to the waitress but how dare us to order extra rice!! The waitress said the bibimbap comes with rice, and knowingly we said we still want the extra. She looked so lost how can we order extra if there is rice in the dish already. This went back and forth for a WHILE and then me telling her that we are hungry that is simply why. To that her respond was ‘interesting’ in such a rude manner … How can a waitress argue with you about your order as simple as extra rice? I said then no extra for me cuz i had enough of this already but my friends told her that they want extra rice bc they really hungry then i told her not so interesting now right? She said no no i said it as a compliment… we should’ve left then. After me not ordering rice i was still hungry but didn’t want to argue with the waitress again. None of us will come back obviously 👎

Super nice atmosphere and staff. But seriously, one miserabke piece of meat only in this to-go Bimbimbap beef?? 💔💔💔

Waited 15 minutes, restaurant was half empty. Service didn't pay us any attention. Silly stuff like that.

It is a very sweet and amazing restaurant, and their food is good, especially it was my first experience with Korean food, and their kamshti is very good, and the service is excellent, and the treatment is nice and the prices are reasonable, but there is a lot of crowding in their place, so you may wait a while to find a place to sit.

Mediocre food, one of the more disappointing Korean food I’ve had. Super overpriced ! I guess you’re paying for the atmosphere.

Super delicious food and nice staff! <3 If I were from Berlin I would definitely come more often!

They you guys always enjoy food and place

Fantastic experience with the flavours of the food

I came to eat yamyam today, but it wasn’t so yam because it was too spicy😞but the bibimbap was pretty good🎀I ordered the kimchi tofu soup. There were only two pieces of tofu and all of them were kimchi, which was very sad😌😌In terms of proportion, it should be kimchi soup. 💥😘I think I will never go to South Korea in my life🥰I can experience spicy ghost cuisine in Berlin💥😅

One of the waitress is so mean and rude. Don’t recommend here.

Would have given 5 star of the rice was of better quality and that the pork meat was cooked with the stew. However the sourness was great!

We came from Poland and one of our main goals was this restaurant. We were not disappointed, the food was very tasty, the portions were adequate and the price was right. The lemonade is good and refreshing, especially in this heat. The place was clean, the service was nice and the dishes were served relatively quickly. I recommend visiting and trying it if you like Korean cuisine!

I tried the Bibimbap with beef and it was really good. My only problem is that I was not able to finish it that fast so there was some burnt rice by the time I finished since it was continuosly heating. I wish there was an option for people like me to turn the heating on and off.

The food was good but we found the portions to be quite small and left hungry. We ordered the daily summer specials which were both tasty but there definitely could’ve been more for the price. 4 very thinly sliced pieces of meat, a couple small slices of cucumber, and really not that many noodles. It fulfilled the Korean food craving, but we wouldn’t come back because we didn’t think the price to quantity was worth it. 3.5 stars

Very friendly staff, nice atmosphere inside and outside and delicious food

Top service, delicious food and a cool location

Very reccomended Very nice food Very nice staff Very satisfing, i would bring a lot of friends to eat korean food here

Highly recommend this place, the food and drinks are delicious and the staff is so incredibly friendly

The food is a delight and the service is very accommodating.

Came here for an event. Overall the food is pretty good, had the Jukgaejang. The server is nice and was helpful at recommending dishes, but since it was so busy that night, she mistakenly charged me for a dish that wasn't mine. Luckily I had this sorted out with the owner who was very receptive and helpful :)

The food is not bad, but I found it dishonest to charge us around 5 euros for a jug of water when we had asked for tap water and they brought us water in a bottle (like those of lemonade) pretending that it was mineral water. Water should not be charged for, it is a common good that must be accessible to everyone!

service ok, food uninspiring, the salad for the wrap was inedible as it had sand in it. very expensive for a plate of sliced vegetables and a modest serving of kimchi and gochujang. I won't be back. I suggest you avoid this place.

Great portion size, friendly service, very tasty food!

I tasted same in Korea! And the staffs are so so kind and nice…

Props to our waiter Ilker, who was a great host and a joy to talk with! If not for the food we’d come back for them!

I have brought all my friends and office colleagues to enjoy the korean cuisine here. I always love it here.

Super tasty, very friendly staff, very hygienic and a top selection of dishes. My absolute favorite restaurant in Berlin.

I loved the experience. I went alone and i felt very comfortable. The service is great, the food came quickly and the portion where grat.

The food is good although I have tried better Korean in Berlin and with bigger portions for the price

Always friendly service and the food is delicious

A colorful Korean restaurant with wonderful service and delicious food. The only thing is that I couldn’t get enough of the dumplings (gyoza), so if you are very hungry, it’s better to take something else.

Very delicious food, great service perfect for lunch. A bit expensive but that is to be expected at this location. We also got super delicious Kim chi

Nice Korean place. Looks very trendy and nothing like what you would expect from a Korean restaurant. The food was amazing but the service was slow even though it wasn’t too crowded. Luckily the food was worth the wait.

We were there for the first time years ago, now finally again ;) And I have to admit, the store is better than when I had it secured back then. We went around lunchtime on a Saturday without a reservation and got a table straight away. The selection of dishes is great and also a little different than my usual Koreans. The portions were large, and with the starter we were definitely very full. The service wasn't necessarily euphoric, but still nice and attentive (especially since people are definitely used to worse things in Mitte :)) Parking wasn't a problem either - apparently our lucky day. Definitely worth a visit! Bonus: Gojujang is always on the tables and you don't have to ask! TOP! (In other stores there is such a blob that I don't understand ;))

Super friendly waiter serving us delicious Korean food. My fave (for years now) ozinger bokum, the spicy fried squid! We also shared a gimbab role and kimchi pancake. Delish!

Great food, the KIMCHI soup is awesome

An amazing place to satisfy your Korean food craving. We spotted this place while walking around the area and were drawn to the restaurant by its striped drawn out shade sails. Our host Tunghe, welcomed us with a smile and led us to our cute table in the corner even though we didn't have a reservation. The food we ordered tasted amazing as well and it was quite filling me. The food was slightly spicy for my palette but the refreshing homemade lemonade & sodas came our rescue. Overall the restaurant is great place for a date evening or catch up with close friends over some amazing Asian food.

Travelled around Germany and was craving good quality Asian food. This did not disappoint.

A great place for authentic tasting Korean food. Some of the best banchan in Berlin. I strongly recommend eating here if you're passing through.

Posto semplice ma grazioso e molto pulito! Personale giovane e cortese, pronto alla necessità anche a spiegazioni sui piatti molto dettagliate e a suggerimenti. La ragazza che ha servito il nostro tavolo è solare e cortese. Buono il Gimbab, il Bibimbab e i Mondu!

Super friendly staff, loved the neighbourhood and the food was excellent! I really recommend this place and i’ll come back for sure.

The food was delicious and the service was very friendly. The only drawback is the beer tent set outside.

Sadly, this is possibly the worst Bibimbap I’ve ever had. I do not understand how I received only one tablespoon of beef. It’s also not your standard bulgoli beef it’s just low grade overcooked minced meat. The beef itself is and I can guarantee there was not one pear used to soften this or flavour it. The only redeeming quality is the portion size for the rice was fine. For the price point, I would absolutely forget this there are much better options that are cheaper. Even in this area.

Best bibimbap in town. And great, friendly service

this place is quite disappointing. I do not recommend unless you want to get food poisoning

Water was the best thing that tasted as it should be. Soup tastes like directly from the Ramen powder. It was the saddest Kimchi I ever tasted. Even if we both left over 80% of the food, the waiter never asked if everything was alright, but tried best to ignore. Try your luck. But I wouldn't gamble.
