On our third day in Berlin, we were craving some Asian food and decided to try Arirang. The best…read morepart was that, it was less than five minute walk from our hotel, so that was a plus.
Interior is simple, tables and chairs, they have outdoor patio that overlooks a park, recommend you go outside if you are doing bbq.
After reviewing the menu, we went with the following:
- Spicy Squid Bokkeum
- Kalbi Tang
- Tangsuyuk
The squid tasted like the squid was in the freezer way too long, it was mushy. The seasoning was ok, but after few bites, was not a fan of this dish.
Tangsyuk is not the same as the Korean version, it had no veggies and it had tons of chopped garlic in the dish. The sauce was decent. Kalbi Tang - underseasoned, but good enough.
The service was decent, was not a fan of the two workers taking smoke break by the front door every five minutes. Even if they come back in and wash their hands, they should be more mindful as 1) they are working in a restaurant 2) they were smoking as customers were walking in and 3) lets have some common sense. The place is NOT run by Koreans, their food was decent.
