As we were walking through the streets of Amsterdam, crossing over one of the many canals, we were…read morelooking for a place for tasty eats, and something that we hadn't tried yet. We stumbled upon Seoul Food, and we decided to give it a try. When we first walked in, it was difficult to ascertain if it's a mini store, a take away restaurant, and then discovered it's a little bit of everything. You place your order at the counter with the very rude women that are standing there chatting amongst themselves and who don't really care if they have customers or not. Don't ask them about the food, their opinions, or anything else because they will only begrudgingly respond. Once you order, you can find somewhere to sit. Seating is extremely limited, and you're more likely to share a space with others than to have your own space. While we were sitting waiting for our food, which by the way is not brought to the table your number is called and you have to return back to the counter to pick it up yourself, they do have an entire wall filled with tchotchkes and food items. Number called and we picked up our food and we needed to ask for napkins and cutlery, because none of that was provided. The food pretty much was bland to mediocre, and the dishes that we ordered that should've been hot, were barely room temperature. The eggs in the dishes we ordered were premade and cold. Poor form, poor food, poor quality. Just not good whatsoever. The wontons were very rubbery and we were not able to eat them. They were that bad. Suffice to say, when in Amsterdam avoid this place at all costs.

Overall very good dining experience here!…read more We're very hungry after driving all day for over 450 miles. As I usually do, I consulted nearby restaurants to see what we wanted to eat. There were quite a few Asian ones popped up, so we decided to try our luck with some Korean food. Since it was such an nice evening, we decided to stroll along a canal to work up more appetite. Originally we wanted to go to a different restaurant, but when we got there it was full, and the server told us it'll be an hour wait. We couldn't wait that long, so we looked for an alternative. We found Khan, and we weren't disappointed. Very fortunately we found only table open. Service was prompt, pleasant, and courteous. It wasn't overly friendly, perhaps reflective of cultural background. Food was very good--of course we were very hungry by the time we got there. Number of banchan (side dishes) offered was minimal compared to what I'm used to in the States. My only complaint was the overpriced foods! It's probably because we are in Amsterdam, but it might be because there's not much compensation and Korean cuisine is a novelty around here. You will enjoy food here. Highly recommended.

My husband and I have now lived in Amsterdam for 7 months and still have been on the hunt for a…read moregood AUTHENTIC Korean restaurant - now we've found it! Food: We ordered the following: 1) Kimchi Tofu - delicious and very big portion. It contained 8 pieces of tofu and plenty of kimchi and pork 2) Korean Fried Chicken - 8 pieces - it was good and not too greasy 3) Kimchi Jigae - nice, spicy and authentic 4) Kalbi Tang - Was ok, but didn't have the big bones of kalbi Drinks: We ordered one Korean corn tea (bodeecha) and a glass of soju. Ambiance: The evening we went it was very loud and "lively". Caveat: We went for dinner on a Friday night where it seemed that it was full of large tables of work people - and when I say work people I mean older Korean men - which means LOTS of soju drinking and very LOUD conversations. It was so loud that I couldn't even speak or hear my husband who was sitting in front of me. We literally had to shout to each other. So you can imagine what the restaurant was like where everyone was shouting. I'm not sure if this place is like this every night or even at lunch. But regardless, you never really go to a Korean restaurant for the "ambiance", you go for the food. And as long as the food was good I'll put up with the noise. Price: 72.00€ for two people Service: Very good and friendly. There were two guys and a packed restaurant and we never had to wait for anything. Would I go back? Absolutely. There's so much more on the menu that I'm dying to try.

When you walk in, looks like its the go to place for Korean business men who probably works nearby at LG. It feels like a slice of Korea in here! We ordered the kimchi tofu, kimchi pancake and fried chicken to share. The pancake was good - lotsa flavour but would like a bit more batter for the crispiness. The fried chicken was nice - good balance of seasoning. Wish there were some pickled radish. My favorite was the kimchi tofu w/ pork. So good! I did the Korean hmmmmmm at my first bite. Everything was really good but I have to admit it was a bit expensive but hey - every now again it's a really good treat.

I've been in Amsterdam for 6 weeks now and I haven't had any Asian food (I've had KBBQ, Sichuan, pho, Indonesian, "asian", and boba LOL) that's made me say "wow!" This is the first place that I can say is as good as what I'm used to in Los Angeles. I had the tekka-don, which is marinated sashimi tuna over rice -- the fish was fresh and the rice was the correct temperature. There was a light, sweet soy coating the whole thing. 4/5 stars. I also ordered some yakitori -- the chicken leg meat with spring onions was nothing short of relevatory. The pork belly yakitori I ordered was pretty amazing too. The place is difficult to find -- it's tucked into a hidden corner of the mall but it's worth searching for.

Tanuki has undergone a major renovation recently - the old Tanuki has moved to Gelderlandplein and…read morethe Tanuki here is more a Asian BBQ restaurant. There are grills at the tables and you cook your own food. I recommend you visit the other Tanuki, as this one was a disappointment. Food: 2/5 I'm pretty sensitive to salt but even the other people I ate with found the meat to be too salty. Rumor has it that restaurants with not so fresh meat salt their food heavily to preserve it for longer... We had various types of chicken and pork, and most of it was mediocre. The pork neck was very tasty but it was the only one out of 7 meats. Service: 3/5 The waitstaff was very polite and attentive. Atmosphere: 4/5 They did a really good job with the renovation, the restaurant is beautiful. It is a nice mixture of modern and traditional Japanese decor. They even have those adorable booths where you need to take your shoes off. However, you can't eat atmosphere. Value: 2/5 Each 100g of meat was about 5 euros, which adds up... in the end, we decided to finish what we ordered and then finish our meal at McDonalds.

There used to be an ambiguous Chinese restaurant situated at this location. Well, it wasn't really…read morethat dotchy. But this is Zuid and in Zuid people have money to spend and they don't want to spend it on stuffy Dutch Chinese fair. Babi pangang and Foe yong hai might have sufficed for grandpa & grandma and mom & dad, but the new generation wants modern and hip. They want small little nibbits and lots, cause sharing is caring. They want flavors that remind them of the flavors they experienced during their far east holidays. In Zuid, Asian fusion is the way to go. Thus about 2 weeks ago, a new Asian fusion restaurant opened it's doors in de Maasstraat. Not that there's any shortage of Asian inspired restaurants in the Rivierenbuurt, with Kaiko, Sapporo, Korean Garden, Hakata Senpachi and Orbit to name a few, only a stones throw away. I pass the restaurant regularly on my way to the appie for my grocery rants. The enticive menu lured me in this evening. By the way, their menu is a little more extensive then the one posted online. Let's see, the spider roll with soft shell crab, avocado, Japanese mayo and tobiko. Fried spicy dynamite roll with tuna and kimchi? Oyster cutlet roll with crispy oyster, red onion, almonds and tonkatsy mayo...hmmmm, interesting. Yaikes, €9 for 4 pieces?! Right..... let's just leave the creative sushi rolls for now and move on to the meals, shall we. Scallops with garlic topping, soft shell crab with garlic and red pepper, Malaysian curry sirloin with vegetables, steamed turbot with spring onions, ginger and doused with hot soy oil. Yahaa! The meals are on the small side here, so I was advised to go for 3 dishes per person. After viewing the prices, I only went for two dishes though. This prompted the question, only 2? You're not that hungry then?! Which lead me to respond with a hesitant yes. What I meant to say however was: Actually, I am very hungry but this is all I can afford right now. For a shared dinning concept, meals aren't economical to say the least (average pricesof ~ €8-13 per dish). I ended up going for the beef skewers with Malaysian peanut sauce and the Tuna Tataki with ponzu dip. Although beef skewers reminded me more of the Indonesian style sate rather than Malaysian with the sweet ketjap, they tasted okay. The seared tuna was also fine. I was expecting a fresh citrusy sauce as depicted in the picture on their site and was kind of disappointed when I couldn't detect any citrus flavors in the ponzu dip. What is that saying like? Never expect anything from anyone, because expectation always hurts. On the other hand, I was happy to discover only 2 dishes were sufficient to satisfy my hunger. So when on a budget my advise would be, go for protein! No, rephrase, ALWAYS go for protein, even when not broke. Even though the dishes didn't quite live up to my expectations, I think I will pay Michiu another visit. The food was good enough for me to still want to try other dishes on the menu, like turbot and the quail with goose liver. Yes, this place fits right in the neighbourhood with a high demand for contemporary fusion cuisine. Asian red is definitely the theme here. There is few seating outside as well. Prices are rather steep, but no more so then at Sapporo and Kaiko. Remember, this is Zuid and in Zuid people have money to spend. This newbie might do quite well....
