About KoMap

KoMap is a community-driven platform designed to help people discover Korean restaurants, markets, and businesses across Europe. Whether you are a Korean expat looking for a taste of home, or someone curious about Korean cuisine and culture, KoMap is your go-to resource.

Our mission is to connect the Korean community worldwide by providing accurate, up-to-date information about local Korean businesses. We believe that food brings people together, and through KoMap, we aim to make it easier for everyone to find authentic Korean experiences wherever they are.

Our Mission

KoMap exists to solve a simple but important problem: finding authentic Korean food abroad is harder than it should be. Generic restaurant directories mix Korean restaurants with other Asian cuisines, making it difficult to find genuinely Korean-owned establishments. KoMap is built specifically for Korean cuisine, with community-driven verification that ensures every listing represents an authentic Korean dining experience. We partner with restaurant owners to keep information accurate, including menus, opening hours, and photos.

How KoMap Works

Our platform combines a curated database of Korean restaurants with an interactive map-based discovery experience. Each restaurant is categorized by cuisine type — from traditional Korean BBQ and hearty Kimchi Jjigae to modern Korean fusion and street food favorites like Tteokbokki and Hotteok. Users can filter by city, country, or verification status to find exactly what they are looking for. The KoMap verification badge means that the business information has been confirmed directly by the restaurant owner or our team.

Where We Are

KoMap currently covers Korean restaurants across Germany, Austria, France, Italy, and the Czech Republic, with new countries being added regularly. Our strongest coverage is in major German cities including Berlin, Munich, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Dusseldorf, and Cologne, where the Korean community is most active. We are actively expanding to cover all of Europe and eventually the entire world.

Community-Driven Quality

Every restaurant on KoMap benefits from our community of users who contribute reviews, photos, and suggestions. Users can suggest new restaurants, report outdated information, and share their dining experiences to help others discover great Korean food. This community-first approach ensures that our database stays fresh and relevant, reflecting the real experiences of people who love Korean cuisine.

Founded in 2026, KoMap started as a small project to help friends find Korean restaurants in Germany. Currently, we are focused on Germany, with plans to expand across Europe and eventually worldwide. Our database is constantly updated by our community of users and business owners.

We are committed to supporting Korean businesses abroad and helping them reach a wider audience. If you own a Korean business in Germany and would like to be listed on KoMap, please contact us!
