"Sushi" Street Food Restaurants in Cologne
The small, lively sister of the ITO restaurant, which is known for its upscale Japanese cuisine, has quickly transformed itself from a takeaway spot into an individual restaurant with sushi as well as creative starters and main courses. Some dishes are simple, others complex.
Fantastic sushi in a modern, masculine ambience - the dominant colour is black. However, the food on offer is all the more diverse: from top quality purist sashimi to fancy crispy rolls. The warm, Korean-inspired dishes are also impressive.
Classic sushi restaurant with a polished dining room and cosy courtyard. The fish quality is above average, and you can taste it. If you prefer something a little more refined, choose salmon tartare with ponzu sauce or Wagyu beef carpaccio with truffles from the starter menu.
From purely plant-based to flavourful flexitarian, the formerly purely vegan snack bar has expanded its menu to include dishes with fish, meat and seafood and also offers fresh sushi alongside Vietnamese classics - phở, bánh mì, summer rolls, etc.
Ramen hotspot between Brüsseler Platz and Innerer Grüngürtel. Here, everything revolves around special vegetable ramen and chicken broth-based ramen, which can be supplemented with gyoza, karaage and other sides. Pro tip: the Cologne Signature Chicken Ramen Surf & Turf.
Japanese cuisine without the fuss. The various bento boxes - for example with tonkatsu, sashimi and pickled vegetables or king prawns, sashimi, wakame and vegetable tempura - offer a balanced mix of freshness, fat and salt. Served with Japanese beer.
A long-established restaurant with simple Japanese cuisine in a city centre location - here the team still rolls, fries and drapes just as they did in the early years. Quality is evident here in the subtle details: the freshness of the fish, the consistency of the seaweed and rice. Open at lunchtime.
Hip Asian fusion restaurant with colourful sushi platters on black slate plates, unusual nigiri creations, crispy or special rolls - also vegetarian! - as well as various bowls, wagyu carpaccio and hot dishes, such as udon noodles in teriyaki sauce with salmon fillet.
