Lerne inmitten der Hauptstadt, im Herzen Kreuzbergs, authentische koreanische Küche auf unseren hauseigenen Tischgrills kennen. SSAM kommt aus dem Koreanischen und bedeutet “Wrap”. SSAM Bbq ermöglicht eine sensationelle Erfahrung beim Abendessen, die die essentiellen und einzigartigen Qualitäten koreanischen Barbeques hervorhebt. Du kannst nicht nur aus einem breiten Spektrum von hochwertigem Rind- und Schweinefleisch wählen, sondern auch aus frischen Meeresfrüchten sowie vegetarischen Optionen. Das Interieur unseres Restaurants bringt einen Hauch moderner Ästhetik mit traditioneller koreanischer Atmosphäre zusammen, in der die Feinheit authentischer koreanischer Gewürze besonders zur Geltung kommt werden kann.

Place was really pleasant. Food was extraordinary. It was my first time in a Korean barbecue restaurant and the waitress offered to help. The price was a bit high but worth the experience

We had the Korean bbq. Spicy chicken and entrecôte. All of it was very tasty, especially the banchans (side dishes) that you get with your food. Very nice servers and experience. Would recommend!

Food was very fresh and tasty. We waited 20 minutes to place our order, when we eventually managed to wave the waitress over. Food and drinks came very quickly after though, which made up for that time really. I feel it is a bit overpriced, but you pay for the experience of the Korean BBQ, I suppose. Unfortunately,bathrooms are in desperate need of a reservation.

Das Essen ist lecker, allerdings gibt es in Berlin viele andere gut Korean BBQ Restaurants, die vom Preis/Leistungsverhältnis mehr zu bieten haben. Die Toilette sollte man allerdings dringend verbessern.

I have not expected authentic korean food, but I really expected more for the price. Meat quality, side dishes were not bad but not much variety. It used to be much more authentic few years ago.

When i arrived i really wanted to grill but it cost me the double amount for halal food one portion was the price of two portions for non halal food which didnt make any sense tbh ontop our waitress was very rude and she could’ve explained things to us in a nicer way and not let her bad mood out on us. I especially was confused that the online menu is something completely different then the one online so might aswell correct that too

The food was amazing, but the sides were disappointing -- small quantity & selection. In the future I would prefer more sides, some water for the table, maybe a refill of rice; you know, general hospitality. The staff was very friendly & professional & the food was amazing. Thank you for a great night!

The food was mediocre or ok when it comes to taste but clearly overprized. The service was overstrained, forgot the order and later charged us 200 Euro more. Nothing really fundamental but if you ask for this price I expect a good service. The fried chicken and the stew were really good though! Wouldn't recommend and won't go again.

The meat was of very poor quality, the side dishes were embarrassing and the service was arrogant and slow. We paid way too much money for eating poor quality food. The seating was uncomfortable and the toilet dirty. I would never go again and I would not recommend the place to anyone.

The restaurant is kinda expensive and not really worth the price. The food was quite average and not like an authentic korean bbq. For the side dishes we got a little bit of kimchi, noodle salad and jalapenos. In addition there were some pickles, red cabbage and carrots. We were four people and it wasnt nearly enough. For the drinks we got some cocktails, which the waiter spilled a little bit but didnt replace them.

I always come here for the authentic korean bbq experience. It's a bit more expensive than other dining options (maybe not in Berlin city centre), but it's worth trying. It's nice to have a group of friends/family to visit together. Food is delicious, service very friendly. Would recommend 100%

Amazing food, however I burned my knees on the grill underneath the table and had to treat my burns with ice and burn cream for the rest of my meal. That grill is dangerously hot and the fact that it is not covered or protected under the table is crazy. The grill is built into the table so the bottom of it is at knee height, directly in front of your legs, at the exact depth of a persons knees. The servers should at least warn you before they turn on the grill that you can burn yourself under the table. But there was no protection, no warning, no signs. It is extremely dangerous and I could not properly enjoy my meal or sit with my legs straight after the injury. Actually your restaurant should have offered to pay for my meal after that happened, since it was due to total negligence that it happened. That's quite bad customer service.

There were seven of us for dinner. the food was ok, but higher prices for the fact that you prepared your own food. Unfortunately we were only served once in 2.5 hours to order drinks. which is absolutely not nice. We would have liked to have ordered more drinks. you could have made more sales with a table that size. Conclusion: no trained specialists who know and appreciate the good handling in gastronomy. here we weren't kings as gooses. the service only communicates in English. which we found disturbing since we are here in Berlin. and you can't assume that everyone speaks English. unfortunately we were not satisfied and will not come back. Unfortunately there are too many of these restaurants.

First time having a Korean BBQ. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, but it was difficult at times to catch their attention. The food was tasty and fresh, but the chicken was brought to us with a lot of tendons and fat, and we struggled to cut it away with the scissors that we were given. Only limited veg provided for the grill (one slice of zucchini each, and mushrooms). As my friend and I don't enjoy the taste of mushrooms, we didn't have much else to put on the grill besides the chicken meat. Lemonade was delicious, salad was topped up, rice was nice and sticky. Sides of kimchi and pickles etc. were appreciated. Good spicy dip.

The food was amazing, the experience of grilling and taking care of your own food in a restaurant setting was quite fun and the staff was very helpful and friendly. The menu was fully in English so you should understand it at least a little when going there.

Deutliche Verschlechterung im Vergleich zu früheren Besuchen. Viele Gerichte und Getränke (koreanisches Bier) nicht verfügbar, zu kleine Portionen, wir sind nicht satt geworden für 65€ zu zweit. Schlechtes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Das war mein letzter Besuch in dieser Location.

Food was Great, nice location but A bit over Priced. They have a “all about meat” platter for 2 persons 60 euros. We have to order another plate pork belly for 21 euro before we were full. Plus 2 beers we ended up paying 92 euros for 2 person.

De bediening was zich niet bewust van ons bestaan, hebben een uur gewacht voordat we aan onze bbq konden beginnen. Uitserveren van drankjes en rauw vlees kost veel tijd en de krukjes zonder rugleuning zitten niet heel comfy. Verder was het wel een leuke ervaring en het eten was prima.

Essen wie immer lecker, nur bei den kostenlosen Beilagen wie Kimchi extrem kleine Größen. Dann lieber eine richtige Portion bezahlen. Kellner nicht auf größere Gruppen die ggf. mehr Aufmerksamkeit brauchen ausgelegt. Auch abräumen oder nachfragen ob noch Getränke/Speisen erwünscht sind, Fehlanzeige. Hier arbeiten die Mitarbeiter easy und nicht um die Gäste von sich zu überzeugen. Schade.
