GangNaRu is hands down one of the best spots for Korean food near Frankfurt. Every dish we’ve tried has been excellent, and we’ve recommended it to all our friends. The Kimchi Jjigae is my personal favorite — I order it almost every time, and it never disappoints. Even though it’s about a 45-minute drive for us, my wife and I come often because the food is consistently outstanding. Located within a rowing club facility, GangNaRu has a relaxed, diner-style feel. If you’re craving authentic Korean cuisine, it’s absolutely worth the trip.

I am traveling from Canada and did -not- expect such authentic, hearty, generous Korean food that had more variety than my hometown region. I had my Seolongtang and trust me nothing like a non-spiced beef soup that tells you that everything else in that restaurant would be good. Friend had Yukgaejang and had no problem finishing two bowls of rice. I am going there again tomorrow to eat something I’d been eat for 7-8 years because the ingredient is simply so rare outside of Korea!

Our first time visiting this place. Food was really good but the service was a bit tough if you don’t speak Korean since the waiter and waitress didn’t get what we wanted, but the lady I assumed she was the boss came and showed us how they grill the meat Korean style and she even bought us the side dishes when we asked for more without charging any extra. We had pork belly and spicy squid. I have to admit the food was really good, but we were 2 of us and wanted to try different meat unfortunately the minimum order of grilled meat is 2 portions. We will definitely will come back with some friends so we can share everything. Overall we were very impressed and satisfied.

We were there again. One of the best spots in town for comfort food Korean style with a beautiful view of river Main. Consistently great service and food quality. Always loved the more side dishes and condiments. Another happy lunch.
