Nadia DuinkerAugust 9, 2015Amazing korean restaurant with some modern twists in the menu and also the interior. Very friendly and proffessional staff. Great location and delicious food! Try the softshell crab and korean bbq!
nowDecember 16, 2015Fresh meat, veggies and fish- wanna make it yourself - go ahead and enjoy the Korean jenever too! Perfect for business dinners as well !
S.B.B.January 27, 2013When in a group of five: go upstairs and order the five meat bbq options. They make it for you and tastes absolutely great. Sharing = caring. Also go here for midnight snack: second on the menu.
Jenny SOctober 19, 2015Had the 3 course menu. Food was great! Tasted quite good. Favs were spareribs & pancakes. Altho I didn't like the Asian-looking waitress as she was a bit pushy and forgot what we ordered more than 1x
An NaAugust 4, 2016The smoked octopus salad was spectaculair! We also loved the pork belly korean bbq & and the miso pear :)
The Korean taco's aren't allways available, but when they are, you should order it. Follow Yokiyo on FB, so you will know when the taco fest is on! Everything else on the menu is above par anyway.- Nadia DuinkerDecember 26, 2015Love the softchell crab! But actually the entire menu is delicious. Also great service and the best home made ice tea in town!
Chiara Sale CorrigaJune 22, 2014Great place, if you come, ask for a bbq table. You can cook your own meat and it comes with nice sides. Pear and sesame as dessert.
JY GBNovember 1, 2016Although the food was okay, and the staff friendly we thought it was too noisy. Also the smoke coming from the grill was all over the place. It's great though that it's located in Amsterdam Oost
Edo CostaJuly 24, 2016From city center to new location in oost. Big space and a lot of table, good korean food but beware: you can get the bbq only if you ars sitting outside
Jolanda H.January 31, 2016I liked the atmosphere, the food and the service. It feels a bit Korean in a kind of strange area ( red light district)
Fatma GencApril 6, 2015The BBQ is delicious! With marinated meat but also plain beef, best korean side dishes and it all looks fabulous
Zeynep Gungor OzderFebruary 7, 2015Korean bbq and kimchi was amazing. And the staff were really helpful :) reasonable price for amazing tastes..
Yasmin VFebruary 9, 2016Go here for the DIY barbecue with a group of friends! Not very cheap here, but worth it.
Janneke EggelteJanuary 16, 2014Best Korean food in Amsterdam. I am loving it. LA kalbi is the best. Try it!
Steven BåssOctober 20, 2015Food is delicious, but the real Korean vibe I'd like is missing. Service is decent (even though the British waiter was working his first shift)- Martijn SteltOctober 26, 2013Service is great! Order a bottle of Soju and enjoy. Miso pear dessert is the best!
Real Korean BBQ's upstairs!! Great and fresh food. Love to eat here with friends and family.
Kim van VelzenFebruary 28, 2013Choose the Korean bbq and grill away DIY. Fab quality meat and of course kimchi on the side.
Owen WilliamsFebruary 6, 2016Never had Korean food before this and was blown away! Super fun for groups
Private booth: chefs menu, double soju and surprise desert. Do it !
MariaOctober 5, 2015Nothing really Korean except for the funny experience with cooking your own meat which would happen if only you're in a group of 4+ since they sit couples at canteen-style place downstairs. 3/10.
Rockstar chef Jaymz Pool has gone Korean. The food has more hits than PSY, and more style than Gangnam.
PiccololasSeptember 28, 2014Kimchi soup is good! Don't go for the mixed grill, it's just a tiny starter. (It tastes ok though)
EsKimOSeptember 13, 2014The worst Korean food ever - ever, ever! No employee is Korean at all. You can't call food "Korean" just because it's spicy. Not every experiment made can be excused with "modern" Korean cooking.👎
Philip AllegaDecember 28, 2013Tasty. Interesting. But after 50 minutes between course 3 & 4, we had to leave. At that point we were at 2 hours and 20 minutes into dinner. Ugh.
Mike MalleeJanuary 30, 2015Stay clear of the Korean beer, not worth it at all. The meat is very nice as is the kimchi.
Ruben BrometNovember 10, 2013Total disgrace. Took almost an hour to order, no taste whatsoever, dirty toilets.
Volkskrant EventsNovember 29, 2013IDFA 2013 Tip: "Als je het niet erg vindt om een kwartiertje te lopen. Voor 37,50 krijg je er 6 gangen, waaronder bulgogi, het lekkerste Koreaanse vlees dat er is", Gast van de Volkskrant Emma Curvers
Pablo MelchorOctober 10, 2014Todo buenísimo. Eso sí, si pides el "chef's menu" elige el de 4 platos. El de 6 es solo para un festín de los de no volver a comer en dos días :-)

"A must-visit if you like beer. Delicious home brew beers, low prices, friendly service and nice atmosphere. During our visit some good jazz performance was the perfect addition to all that."
