Cocolo Ramen X-Berg, Ramen restaurant in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Germany
Cocolo Ramen X-Berg is a Japanese ramen restaurant on Paul-Lincke-Ufer, along the Landwehr Canal in the Kreuzberg district of Berlin. The menu centers on bowls of noodle soup served with a range of broths and toppings to choose from.
The restaurant opened in 2013 as a second location for the Cocolo group, which had started with a branch in the Mitte district of Berlin. The move to Kreuzberg reflected a growing interest in Japanese noodle soups across the city.
The spot sits along the Landwehr Canal in Kreuzberg, a neighborhood known for its mix of locals and visitors who tend to stop in after a long afternoon on foot. The open kitchen lets guests watch the cooks at work, which gives the meal a relaxed, unhurried feel.
The restaurant is a short walk from Schönleinstrasse U-Bahn station and is accessible for wheelchair users throughout. Outdoor seating along the canal is limited, so arriving early is a good idea if you want to sit outside.
At the counter, guests can mix their own drinks by pressing fresh grapefruit and combining the juice with shochu, a Japanese distilled spirit. This kind of hands-on drink preparation is rarely offered in restaurants in Germany.
