    A bit overhyped. The atmosphere is great and the homemade watermelon smoothie was very tasty. It is solely made of mint, watermelon and crushed ice. Yet, you'll find better Korean food in Schöneberg.

    Unsuprisingly crowded. Loved everything I tasted- jasmin tea, mango lassi, pancake with kimchi and vegetarian bibimbap with fried egg. I wish I could eat there every day.

    We had the fried gyoza-like dumplings, the dumpling soup and the middle-grade spicy noodle soup. Everything was delicious! Plus: all of that with a beer and a house tea cost only about 25€. Awesome.

    We found this place based on high ratings on 4sq. I can only support the opinion of the majority. Nice food and quick service. The bibimbap might be their signature dish.

    Best bibimbap in my life! Served in a hot stone bowl, so it’s warm throughout the whole meal and the rice in the bottom becomes crispy. An experience on top of excellent taste! Staff super friendly!

    Bibimbab is a great dish! Mandu dumplings are not saucy enough and have too much dough. Ramen is far from classical-no pork, no seaweed, no eggs. But apart from naming is a good soup.

    Bibimbap was as good as-- no, maybe it was even *better* than Kimchi Princess (less expensive too). I got the one with beef. I like that you add the spicy sauce yourself, to suit your spice tolerance.

    Good spot to enjoy some korean food in mitte! Prices are fair, as well as portions. Special mention for fried dumplings w/shrimps: highlight of the meal.

    Bibimbap and the ramen both are really good! This place is absolutely delicious and has more options to choose from as compared to the typical Korean places

    Really great korean place, food is delicious, service is good and prices are fair. I really recommend the bibimbap, it's amazing. They don't accept cards, so bring some cash.

    The dumplings were awesome!! The other dish (no idea what it's called) was good too, but the dumplings were definitely my favorite. Kind staff, too!

    Try Bibimbab or Cohen served on a hot stone plate. Great for lunch, too. For veggies I recommend the Bibimbab with tuna.

    The Korean food here is amazing and VERY SPICY! The one few places where I found the food to be really spicy. Get the kimchi chigae on a cold day!

    Bibimbab is the best! As a starter choose their fried or steamed dumplings!

    If you like spicy try the soup with beef, glass noodles and vegetables. Loved their Citron ice tea, very fresh!

    Dumplings are OK, spicy soup with shrimps and teas are tasty. Try a nut tea if you like drinks a-ka horchata. Simple and trendy place for a dinner after shopping with friends.

    OMG bimbimbap! Follow the crowd and order it too--have visited Korea and this is pretty close to the real deal. Share the kimchi 'pizza' as a starter.

    If you can handle a big crowed and stressed staff, this is the place to be. Take different dishes and share them as a tapas meal. So tasty, love it!

    Great Bimbibap and fried dumplings. Queues likely around 7:30pm until 9pm… so wander round the corner to Kaschk for a few beers and avoid the queue until after 9

    Dak bokum, bibimbab and the khimchi soup with rice(don’t remember the name though) are the ones I love. One of my favorite restaurants in berlin😁

    It's busy during lunchtime; an outdoor queue is a standard. If you can, arrive a bit sooner. The bibimbap is exquisite.

    Nice korean, dumplings (5 for €6.50 steamed) outshines the rest. If you're a spicy pig like myself it's the place for you.

    Nice, quick place to eat. Everyone but me seems to love Bibimbap, I suggest you just order a lot of fried dumplings instead <3 Bring cash because they don't accept cards!

    The steamed dumplings with pork are a good starter. As for the main course, I would suggest 12a (cannot remember the name but it's rice with spicy pork).

    Kimchi soup! Yeah, bibimbaps are great, but other shops do them too, and YamYam's one of a few that do excellent kimchi soup.

    I've going here and loving it whenever I'm in Berlin, but it seems the owner changed and the food quality dropped dramatically! Friendly staff though...

    Yummy vegetarian delicacies but a bit expensive. A meal for two costed us 40 euros and we felt like we could eat more.

    Great korean lunch place. Very busy so expect a little waiting time to be seated and also remember cash as they don't take credit cards.

    Favorite spot for eating,but in my vegetarian soup I found quite a lot of meat pieces and my boyfriend got soup just with the half amount of water and from service came very unprofessional reaction:(

    Solid Korean spot. Bulgogi portion is super big and tasty, make sure to add a lot of red spicy sauce. The meet wasn't very fresh though.

    Bibimbap is very tasty! Will be back to try the rest of the menu. A little on the expensive side.
