    Wir haben uns aufgrund der Bewertungen leiten lassen Und wurden insgesamt gesehen, nicht enttäuscht. Das Ambiente ist sehr spartanisch eingerichtet, was ich persönlich sehr gerne mag. Die Bedienungen allesamt freundlich und bemüht. Das Bier wurde leider wenig appetitlich serviert. Auch die Tatsache, dass die Hauptspeise vor der Vorspeise kam, ist wenig professionell. Das Essen vom Grundsatz her äußerst lecker und frisch. Die Portionen könnten etwas mehr Gemüse enthalten. Dafür war der Fleischanteil umso größer. Leider war das Rindfleisch sehr zäh und mit zu viel Fett durchzogen. Was auch immer der Gruß aus der Küche war, er war scharf gewürzt und lecker. Vom Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis, absolut fair.

    (Translated by Google) 1.5 / 5 STARS ~ Was here about a year ago. The restaurant is located near the train station and is very popular, so things really get going here at certain times. In my opinion, an extremely uncomfortable atmosphere, in the worst case you sit close together, so there is absolutely no oasis of well-being here. In my case, the service was stressed, rather unfriendly, quick processing ... The map reads interesting, waiting time not exactly short but okay given the operation. The rice pot from the lunch menu was bland in its overall composition and at best mediocre, unspectacular food, and the portioning was sparse. The shop is not cheap, but in retrospect I was a shame about the money, the price-performance ratio is simply more (and I also like to eat significantly more expensive if the quality is right). Walked out with a bad feeling. Sorry, but I don't have to have it! Note: The rating is based on ONE visit, I may give the restaurant a second chance. (Original) 1,5/5 STERNE ~ War hier vor etwa einem Jahr. Restaurant befindet sich in Bahnhofsnähe und ist sehr beliebt, entsprechend geht hier zu bestimmten Zeiten richtig die Post ab. Für mein Empfinden extrem ungemütliche Atmosphäre, im ungünstigen Fall sitzt man dicht an dicht, ist also absolut keine Wohlfühloase hier. Bedienung in meinem Fall gestresst, eher unfreundlich, schnelle Abfertigung… Karte liest sich interessant, Wartezeit nicht gerade kurz aber angesichts des Betriebs okay. Der Reistopf von der Mittagskarte war in seiner Gesamtkomposition fad und maximal mittelmäßig, unspektakuläres Essen, die Portionierung dazu noch spärlich. Billig ist der Laden nicht, war mir im Nachhinein doch etwas schade ums Geld, das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist einfach meh (und ich gehe gerne auch deutlich teurer essen, wenn die Qualität stimmt). Bin mit einem schlechten Gefühl rausgegangen. Sorry, aber muss ich nicht haben! Anmerkung: Die Bewertung basiert auf EINEM Besuch, ggf. gebe ich dem Restaurant eine zweite Chance.

    Gogi Matcha is not the same as it used to be! I don't know what changes the restaurant went through during the pandemic, but sadly, it's not as good as it used to be! My favourite Cheese Buldak is now a disaster! Gogi Matcha, goodbye forever! 🥲

    We waited 1 hour for our food and the service was terrible to be honest. There was only 1 waitress and her attitude towards us was very unfriendly. When we asked how long until our food arrives, she said she has no idea. The food was great but the service needs to be better.

    As we have 8 people, we pretty much ordered every single item on their rather small menu. Our favourite dish was the seafood pancake. The kimchi pancake was too salty. One of the Jigaes was good, the one with kimchi and egg. The other two were not great, one was too spicy and the other too bland. The main dishes were mediocre, none particularly outstanding. All were too salty and most of them weren't korean dishes at all. Teriyaki chicken or tofu is Japanese so dishes lack authenticity. All the main dishes and Jigaes came with a bowl of rice. Overall, the food was so-so. They didn't accept reservations so it was difficult to dine here during exhibition days. We could only go on the last day when it was not very busy. Very disappointed as the food didn't live up to our expectations. I won't recommend nor come back.

    Delicious Korean restaurant! Super friendly staf. If you’re not a big eater it’s better to share cause the portions are big and you get unlimited refills on the side dishes. The kimchi pancakes are a most try! It’s wise to make a reservation in advance because it gets busy!

    I have visited twice in 2019 and 2022 and I really love the budae jjigae dish because the taste is delicious. The spiciness is addicting and make me to eat more. Would be better if you eat with rice. I hope I can eat it again!😄

    Lackluster staff, zero smiles, zero service. The food was incredibly sugary / sweet. Not many vegetables, just a bunch of meat, sugar and chili. Lacking flavor and spice, just bland Chili Pork without a kick. Side dishes were laughably small for two people to share, never gotten so little anywhere in the world at a Korean restaurant. Not coming back our group wasn't satisfied with either service or flavor.

  • 4/5 Lucas B. 8 months ago on Google • 56 reviews
    Really comfy and unbelievably tasty. Like 10/10. The service isn't Korean which is obviously not a must have but still sad. The menu is as minimal as it could be and the main dishes are all with meat. Not ideal for veggies. Bibimbap with Tofu would be a helpful addition. Overall still damn good. And once again, the food is incredibly tasty!

    We were on weekdays here but the table has to be reserved if you really want to eat because it seemed always full. The food was not what we really expected since we have looked from the reviews and it is supposed to be really that good. The staff were nice The food was served fast and there are some points we were not satisfied: 1. The rice was dry 2. There was no kimchi. I have eaten a lot of Korean restaurants and they are all have kimchi - which is called Banchan ( side dishes which are served with just about with every meal) 3. The atmosphere is small and the yellow light is a bit dark. And all the room was fried food smell. When we got home, our jacket were covered with oily smell. All in all, the food was okay, not something really special and the menu does not have many dishes.

    If you like Korean food, reserve a table here (you won't find space otherwise) and try the spicy fried chicken. You can thank me later. My compliments to the chef!

    Though the food was great, I would think twice to visit again. I came for lunch the second time when it was full and they refused to serve us without knowing if we had a reservation or not. This also happened the first time but we managed to get separate seats. 4.5 stars for the food, 1 star for the staff.

    We had dinner there and the food was very good. We wanted to try the lunch menu so we came back the next day. However, the service was very very bad since the first time we were there. We try to get a table for 7 and the waiters immediately refused until we offer to sit separately by 4 and 3. And the next day the same thing happened, they immediately refused without even asking if we had an reservation or not. It was very dissapointing service from the staff.

    Not as good as we expected. The waiter is lack of people skills maybe because his English is not good. Although he is sloppy as well, forgot and made mistakes of our drinks. All the dishes we ordered supposed to be none spicy, but the children cannot have any because they all are! Not Children friendly.

    Would have loved to given this place 5 stars but it was sold out of fried chicken and beef when we got there! So didn't get to check out some of the main dishes but the rest of the food was pretty good! And they have a good collection of fruit flavoured soju! Would go again to try the korean chicken hopefully!

    The portion sizes are huge. Make sure you are aware that in Asian cuisine you are supposed to share dishes, so choose accordingly. Otherwise food is great, people are nice. The place is not particularly pretty and the music is a bit too loud. All in all, recommended!

    Nice place to eat near Cologne central station. The foods are tasty. We had chicken and tofu teriyaki, chicken mandu and doenjang jiggae, all of them are delicious. The portion is so big, it can be shared with 2 people. We came 2 days in a row, and this place is always crowded.

    If you are looking for authentic Korean food, you should try Gogi Matcha Korean Restaurant. Their fried chicken is really tasty and crispy, and they have a variety of sauces to choose from. The price is reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. You can also see a lot of Koreans dining in, which is a good sign of how good the food is. The restaurant is located in the centrum of Cologne, which is convenient for transportation and sightseeing. I recommend this place for anyone who loves Korean cuisine or wants to try something new.

    Delicious food, great service. It was a busy day after the BLACKPINK show in the LANXESS arena, so our food took a while since the restaurant was packed. However the server was really friendly and helpful. Definitely will come back to try the bulgogi and fried chicken.

  • 5/5 feiling s. 2 months ago on Google • 77 reviews New
    Really really tasty food. Right after we ordered, they directly served us with 3 banchan or side dishes which were already very tasty. We ordered chili pork and the Korean fried chicken (ganjang chicken), both were really tasty. Only looking at the price it seems to be rather expensive, but the portion is really big, so overall it is "you get what you pay for".

  • 4/5 Carolina G. 2 months ago on Google • 70 reviews New
    The food is delicious, I particularly love the bulgogi and the fried chicken. The waiter was nice but the guy on the bar was a little bit unfriendly. One time we arrived 30 minutes before they closed the kitchen (which we didn't know) and he looked really annoyed, instead of talking to us he just really had a bad attitude.

    (Translated by Google) I have always had dinner in Gogi Matcha and have to say that it is the most worthwhile at lunchtime because of the lunch menu. The restaurant is usually full in the evening. The food itself is a bit expensive, but if you go out to eat with a large group, it should be worth it. Very good taste :) The service is usually very friendly. (Original) Ich bin schon zu jeder Zeit in Gogi Matcha essen gegangen und muss sagen, dass es sich mittags am meisten lohnt, wegen des Mittagsmenüs. Abends ist das Lokal meistens voll.

    A good Korean restaurant for lunch and dinner. The place has a modern and relax setting. It feels more like a pub and cafe. It offer a good variety of Korean dishes. It is authentic with a very mild touch of German. Many dishes tend not available and the price on the site is more expensive than indicated on the website. Friendly service. This place tend to be crowded during lunch hours and it stops accepting guests by 14.00.

    The food was amazing! My husband got the spicy chicken and cheese. They were out of bulgogi so I ended up with a bean sprout and marinated beef dish, it was fantastic. So so good! We also got the chicken dumplings as an appetizer and it was also amazing! They also have tap water and weren't uppity about you ordering it which was awesome. Highly recommend!

    (Translated by Google) Very tasty food, my absolute favorite is the Dakgangjeong dish. We usually like to eat on site, but unfortunately that's not possible at the moment. The food was super packaged so that it could also be enjoyed warm at home. The mini side dishes known to Koreans were also packed, which I found very nice! Thank you very much and I look forward to visiting you after Corona in the newly renovated restaurant! Stay healthy (Original) Sehr leckeres Essen, mein absoluter Favorite ist das Dakgangjeong Gericht. Normalerweise essen wir gerne vor Ort, aber aktuell geht das ja leider nicht. Das Essen wurde super verpackt, sodass es auch zuhause warm zu genießen war. Auch die für Koreaner bekannten Mini Beilagen wurden eingepackt was ich sehr schön fand! Vielen Dank und ich freue mich schon auf die Besuche nach Corona bei euch im neu renovierten Restaurant! Bleibt gesund

    (Translated by Google) Very good Korean restaurant for lunch and dinner. It is located directly opposite Presslauerplatz in a side street. The restaurant offers a good variety of Korean dishes. The service is friendly. If you have to go fast during the lunch break, you should be there before 12 noon, otherwise you have to plan a longer waiting time. (Original) Sehr gutes koreanisches Restaurant für Mittag- und Abendessen. Es ist direkt gegenüber des Presslauerplatzes in einer Seitenstraße gelegen. Das Restaurant bietet eine gute Auswahl an koreanischen Gerichten. Die Bedienung ist freundlich. Wenn es in der Mittagspause schnell gehen muss, sollte man vor 12 Uhr dort sein, andernfalls muss man eine längere Wartezeit einplanen.

    (Translated by Google) Small but nice restaurant. I'll be back, there is still a lot on the menu that I want to try! I had rice cakes in a spicy hot sauce. Portions are big. I can only recommend the classic chicken. (Original) Kleines aber feines Lokal. Ich komme wieder, da gibt es noch einiges auf der Karte, das ich probieren möchte! Ich hatte Rice Cakes in einer würzig scharfen Soße. Portionen sind groß. Das klassische Chicken kann ich auch nur empfehlen.

    (Translated by Google) Very nice service and delicious food. I am used to a greater variety of dishes from Gigi Matcha from Heidelberg (some dishes were simply crossed out on the menu), but the quality of the dishes is equally good. In my opinion, the place would benefit from a more traditional or calm music selection, as the "party music" seems rather inappropriate. (Original) Sehr nette Bedienung und leckeres Essen. Vom Gigi Matcha aus Heidelberg bin ich eine größere Speisenvielfalt gewohnt (einige Speisen waren auf der Karte auch einfach durchgestrichen), die Qualität der Speisen ist aber identisch gut. Das Lokal würde meines Erachtens von einer traditionelleren oder ruhigen Musikauswahl profitieren, da die "Partymusik" doch ziemlich unpassend wirkt.

    (Translated by Google) Cheap, varied selection of food and drinks. My girlfriend and I were really delighted to have discovered an inn near us, which we can still afford at the end of the month without restriction. The restaurant is always fine and we had a wonderful evening here The place was immaculately cleaned and the seating was extremely comfortable. Very brisk and friendly service. I think that the entire local staff did a good job there. (Original) Günstige, verschiedenartige Auslese an Speisen und Getränken. Ich habe mich mit meiner Freundin wahrhaftig allerbest darüber gefreut, also doch ein Wirtshaus in unserer Nähe entdeckt zu haben, welches wir uns ohne Einschränkung auch noch am Monatsende leisten können.Das Lokal ist immer fein und wir hatten hier einen herrlichen Abend.Die Tische vom Lokal wurden makellos gesäubert und die Sitzgelegenheiten waren ungemein bequem.Sehr flotter und freundlicher Service. Ich finde, dass das gesamte Lokal Personal dort einen guten Job gemacht hat.

  • 4/5 Ju F. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) You could at least mention somewhere that it is currently closed for renovation. Somewhere on the website or on the phone as an announcement. It's a shame. Fortunately, it's easy to find an alternative in Cologne. ------------------- Addendum: In fact, it was on Google News. With that I revise my rating to a fair 4 and when it is newly renovated I am looking forward to a nice day at Gogi Matcha :) (Original) Man könnte wenigstens irgendwo erwähnen, dass aktuell wegen Umbau geschlossen ist. Irgendwo auf der Internetseite oder am Telefon als Bandansage. Sehr schade. Zum Glück ist es leicht in Köln eine Alternative zu finden. ------------------- Nachtrag: Es stand in der Tat bei Neues in Google. Damit revidiere ich meine Bewertung auf faire 4 und freue mich wenn es neu renoviert ist auf einen schönen Tag im Gogi Matcha :)

    Cute restaurant with piano music playing in the background. Very friendly and kind waitress (Asima) offered me side dishes and rice even tho I only ordered iced coffee and kimchi jeon. I also noticed she offered rice refills to other customers, taking care of them well. Very familiar atmosphere, workers are getting along well with each other and are in a good mood. Food was also delicious, coffee not too bitter. Very satisfied!

  • 4/5 Mick C. 2 years ago on Google
    This was a very lovely restaurant, the food was tasty and very hot, 1st time dining Korean style, and with unlimited free refills, you won't regret a visit. Limited staff on our visit, would mean a longer waiting time for service on a busy evening, luckily we went at a quiet time, very friendly helpful staff too.

  • 4/5 Sama S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great staff😊 the food portions are very big and it was delicious that I forgot to take pics 😅 they have limited food options though, since Korean cuisine is very rich

  • 5/5 Martin K. 1 year ago on Google
    Korean food right next to central station in Cologne. Portions are big, flavour is excellent, and the atmosphere is nice, with K-pop music playing on the stereo. Service seems quite rushed, and the restaurant feels undermanned given its popularity, so don't expect much pampering. That said, the food experience is simply amazing! Make sure to book in advance if you want to eat there for dinner, otherwise you'll probably leave with an empty stomach.

    Visited on a Saturday night: it was quite busy and we had to wait outside in line for a few minutes together with mostly Korean people. Once inside it was a bustling atmosphere, BTS music on the background and the place packed with customers. Nice. We ordered kimchi jeon (pancake), kimchi jjigae (stew) and the Gang Jang chicken. We loved all dishes. The portions were large but we managed to finish all! We have visited quite a few Korean restaurants and this one is our favorite so far. We can recommend Gogi Matcha and will definitely visit again!

  • 4/5 김유경 1 year ago on Google
    I am Korean mom who cooks Korean food for 3 times a day. For me, this place is recommendable with great flavor and enough portion. 4 stars instead of 5 because I find them quite expensive.

    Gogi Matcha is a popular restaurant that offers a fun and modern atmosphere. The restaurant can fill up quickly, so it's best to arrive early to secure a seat. Despite the crowds, the friendly and attentive service provided by the staff is noteworthy, and they go out of their way to ensure that each customer feels welcome. The waitress who served me was friendly and all smiles. The food at Gogi Matcha is priced around 18 euros per dish. I ordered the cheese buldak, which is a popular dish. It was good, but could have used more chicken. However, the banchan that comes with the meal, including fresh kimchi, dempura, and mayo corn, was tasty and satisfying. Keep in mind - if paying with card, their minimum payment is 25 euros

  • 5/5 Amarjit B. 7 months ago on Google
    Quick, Tasty, Super-friendly - that sums up this Gogi Matcha outlet. The cheese buldak was damn good. And the service was lighting fast. Overall a must recommend for Korean food.

    Almost like in Korea, tasted 2 dishes - the seafood pancake and seafood tofu soup with rice. Maybe best so far in Germany. Worth a visit.

    I had the pleasure of visiting Gogi Matcha, an enchanting Korean restaurant in Cologne, and my culinary experience was nothing short of stunning. Atmosphere: Upon entering, I was greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The interior was subtly lit with soft, earthy tones, creating a cozy ambiance. The combination of traditional Korean elements and contemporary decor gave the restaurant a unique character. Service: The staff deserves all the praise. They were attentive, friendly, and willing to assist in making menu choices. My questions about the dishes were answered with enthusiasm, contributing to the overall positive experience. Menu: I discovered the subtlety of a limited but carefully curated menu. Despite the absence of abundant choices, the experience offered more than enough to relish. My choice landed on Bulgogi and Mandu, both a pleasant surprise of refined flavors. The emphasis on quality over quantity was noticeable in every bite. Fresh ingredients, artistic presentation, and unmistakably authentic flavors showcased a thoughtful culinary approach. At Gogi Matcha, it's all about the art of simplicity, where limited choices open the door to a realm of refinement. The restaurant proves that greatness isn't always dependent on the size of the menu but rather on the care and attention with which each dish is crafted. Highlights: A highlight of my dinner was the Bulgogi, tender grilled beef marinated in a delicious sauce. The flavors exploded in my mouth, and the meat literally melted on my tongue. The side dishes, such as the spicy kimchi and refreshing pickles, added an extra dimension to the meal. Price-Quality Ratio: Although Gogi Matcha is considered a high-end restaurant, the quality of the food and service justifies the price. The portion sizes were generous, and every bite was a sensory delight. Overall: Gogi Matcha offers an authentic Korean culinary experience in the heart of Cologne. Whether you're a fan of Korean cuisine or simply looking for an unforgettable dining experience, this restaurant deserves a spot on your culinary bucket list. Fantastic service and a cozy atmosphere. I'll definitely be back!
