Onni — Restaurant in Lübeck

I went alone for the first time. It was after early lunch time but the restaurant still had quit a lot of ppl eating there. I went in and I immediately got greeted, sat down and received a menu. Service came, got my order ^spoke fabulous English and was even up for a quick chit chat. On top she didn’t wrote down any of my oder. At first I thought that’s maybe bc I’m alone and didn’t had any special needs or questions but I saw the she even took orders with 5 people on the table without any booking devices. Really just amazing! I eat a kimchi stew what sadly was a bit westernized but i would still say it was quite good

Went with my friends on a Tuesday afternoon there again to show them a great new place. what I didn’t expect was that the restaurant was full. Seems like reservations are necessary when u’r eating around 7pm We still got a table, the same friendly service from my last visit sat us down. She remember not only my face she even remembered my whole order and asked if I would like to eat the same or if I would like to eat a recommendation. Honestly I was to stunned to speak whatever their requirements are to work there, I surely don’t have them. Her recommendation was on point. We eat Spicy pork, tofu stew and 2 bibimbabs ofc no tipping or writing down of our order only a smile and a thank you. We all was so amazed by her whole performance, that we only realized later after receiving our drinks that my friends were ordering in Korean. Did she understand? Is she Korean ? She’s probably half Korean ? Did she really remembered everything what we ordered? She indeed did remembered everything!

so to sum it up: food was delicious! And service was top tier, super friendly super calm everything was just spotless! We are thankful for this wonderful...

I really liked going to onni. I didn't expect much, but it was definitely worth going! Starting with the service; they were really nice and courteous. I wasn't quite familiar with the Korean dishes, but they were really helpful when I asked about them. So now the food: I had a vegan Bibimbap and a Miso soup (also vegan). Both of them tasted really good. However, I would mostly recommend you to go with the Bibimbap!! I think for newbies like me, the dish would be the best choice to start engaging with the Korean kitchen! Also, I didn't order a drink because I wasn't quite sure which one I would like to choose but I had a free drink to try, which was also really nice from them! Lastly, the atmosphere: Onni isn't a big restaurant, but they managed to give it a nice charm! The music is really nice and fits well with onni and the lights + the decorations make the little restaurant look very charming! The people that I saw also seemed to be very friendly, and like I said, the service there is really nice as well! I hope I'll be able to go there once again. 너무 맛있어요!! 10/10...

Wir waren etwas irritiert, als der Kellner uns direkt rausgebeten hat. Es stellte sich heraus, dass der Lebensmittelladen nebenan in einen zweiten Gästebereich umfunktioniert wurde. Grundsätzlich ok. Das Problem an dem Raum ist, dass die Kellner selten dort waren, die Tür ständig offen war der kleine Raum dazu auch noch schlecht beheizt ist. Die Toilette lies sich nicht abschließen (!). Das Preissystem ist nicht ganz deutlich. Erst auf Nachfrage erklärte man, dass die Gemüsebeilage (und nicht fer Reis) extra kosten, was mehr als ungewöhnlich für koreanische Restaurants ist.

Das Bibimbap war sehr lecker (sogar mit rohem Ei! 👍), das frittierte Hähnchen kam eher einem japanischen Katsu gleich und war leider sehr fettig. Der Reis passte überhaupt nicht, war mit Stäbchen kaum essbar (falsche Reissorte) wie das nicht geschnittene Fleisch. Geschmacklich nur ok. Der Espresso war überhaupt nicht gut und vor allem kalt, nachdem die Kellnerin noch einmal rüber lief um Zucker zu holen und währenddessen noch andere Dinge gemacht hat.

Die übriggebliebe Schale Reis sollte die Kellnerin einpacken, hat das später vergessen und uns gesagt, sie hätte es anders verstanden. (wie denn? 😅) War etwas merkwürdig, Entschuldigung gab es dann genauso wenig wie den Reis. Am Ende eine enttäuschende Erfahrung für 50€ und mehr als fraglichen...
