> Beautiful interior design
> Fusion kitchen with a different twist to the Asian cuisine e.g. the accompanying cocktailsauce or chicken wings
> Super friendly service
> Tasty and visually appealing food, but my expectations were not fully met
> Reservation highly recommended – even during the week it can get very busy

High-quality Asian cuisine - Edit
I ordered something to go and the food was ready within 10-15 minutes. I had Descendant of the Sun
Read more(fresh passion fruit, lime, mint, passion fruit and mango juice €5.90) as a drink, very fruity, super tasty. For dessert I had Mochi Lovers
(ice cream mochis with mango-passion fruit flavor €5.90), also super tasty. I wasn't so keen on the savory dishes, but it was okay, is also a matter of taste.
Everything looks very lovely. Someone has put some thought into it.

Bowl & Sushi - Edit
Ich hatte eine Bowl bestellt, die sehr schmackhaft war, und sechs Sushis mit Frischkäse und Avocado. Letzteres war äußerst lecker. Die Location war auch gemütlich und der Service war top. Preislich fand ich es absolut akzeptabel.

Everything perfect. Cash only. - Edit
Really excellent restaurant. Close to the “Neumarkt” metro. Cozy and chic inside. Excellent service and the waitress spoke good English. We ordered the "Buddha Bowl" and "Pagoda Bowl" dishes. We also ordered the "Asapura Roll" and "Rainbow Roll" as starters. The presentation of these last "suchis" was incredible. We also ordered the "Descendant of the Sun" juice, which was absolutely delicious. The only downside is that the only form of payment is cash, and it wasn't made clear when paying the bill whether we should tip or not. The experience was great, we really enjoyed it and we'll be back. A special place to celebrate!
Read moreRestaurante realmente excelente. Perto do metrô “Neumarkt”. Aconchegante e chique na parte de dentro. Excelente atendimento, e a atendente falava bem inglês. Pedimos os pratos “Buddha Bowl” e “Pagoda Bowl”. Também pedimos de entrada às opções “Asapura Roll” e “Rainbow Roll”. A apresentação destes últimos “suchis” foi incrível. Pedimos também o suco “Descendant of the Sun”, absolutamente gostoso. O único ponto negativo é que a única forma de pagamento em dinheiro, e não ficou claro na hora de pagar a conta se deveríamos dar ou não a gorjeta. A experiência foi ótima, gostamos bastante e voltamos. Lugar especial pra comemorar!
Sehr gutes Restaurant. In der Nähe der U-Bahnstation “Neumarkt”. Innen gemütlich und chic. Sehr gute Bedienung und die Kellnerin sprach gut Englisch. Wir bestellten die Gerichte "Buddha Bowl" und "Pagoda Bowl". Außerdem bestellten wir als Vorspeise "Asapura Roll" und "Rainbow Roll". Die Präsentation der letzteren "Suchis" war unglaublich. Wir bestellten auch den Saft "Descendant of the Sun", der absolut köstlich war. Der einzige Nachteil ist, dass man nur mit Bargeld bezahlen kann und beim Bezahlen der Rechnung nicht klar gesagt wird, ob man Trinkgeld geben soll oder nicht. Es war eine tolle Erfahrung, wir haben es sehr genossen und werden wiederkommen. Ein besonderer Ort zum Feiern!
Cons: Cash only

I got a gift card for Udum for my birthday and never went there before.
Read moreWe should have booked in advance because it was really full and we had to wait 20-30 minutes to get in, but i completely understand why: the food was so good and the drinks were also very refreshing! Sadly its really expensive

Loved it! - Edit
Lovely place with cozy and comfortable seating. We came here twice during our stay in Köln! Best thing is getting 2-3 small plates to share and try the sushi rolls as well! Super friendly and dedicated staff.

Meh - Edit
An sich war es gut, aber einige Gerichte waren etwas underwhelmimg.
Read moreDie Brühe der Wantan Suppe war sehr gut!
Allerdings war die Entscheidung, frittierte Wantans in der Suppe zu haben zu viel des Guten. Sie werden lediglich matschig und man vermisst die gewöhnlichen zarten Suppen-Wantans (die Haut der frittieren Wantans wird mehlig in der Suppe).
Die Sommerrollen waren winzig und trocken. Die Soße dazu war okay, hat das ganze aber nicht gerettet.
Die Soja "Hähnchenkeulen" waren nicht schlecht, aber haben nicht nach besonders viel geschmeckt. Es war hauptsächlich spannend, dass so etwas angeboten wird. Nice to have, aber würde ich nicht nochmal bestellen.
Zuletzt hatten wir noch Tofu in einer knusprigen Panade bestellt- die Panade war gut knusprig, aber leider null gewürzt bzw. nicht einmal gesalzen. Der Tofu an sich auch nicht. Die Himbeersoße konnte das dann leider auch nicht mehr retten.
Der vietnamesische Eiskaffee war mir persönlich zu süß, aber das ist Geschmackssache. Ich war ehrlich gesagt hauptsächlich froh, mal einen veganen zu trinken.
Alles in allem war das Ambiente sehr schön, sowie die Anrichtung des Essens. Die Kellner*innen waren ebenfalls sehr aufmerksam.
Wenn man ein schönes Esserlebnis haben will, ist das sicherlich ein guter Ort, und ich würde nochmal kommen um andere Gerichte zu probieren.
Mit 3 Tapas und Getränk war ich bei 23€ und aufjedenfall gesättigt.
Pros: Ambiente, Anrichtung , Wantan Suppe
Cons: Teilweise trocken und nicht genug gewürzt, Teuere Portionen

Best Asian Restaurant in Germany - Edit
So far after visiting Germany for the past 7 weeks nothing has surpassed the taste and value of Udum. Staff are nice, food is amazing and the menu has everything you could ever feel like.
Read moreWhen ordering, I was told the portion of items I ordered are enough and wouldn't need the side I was wanting, and they were right.
Really thoughtful of the staff member.
