    Hi guys I ordered a shaorma and they served me mince beef with some curry powder and chips and some salad. And this people don’t have a price and it’s cash only. For two plates of shaorma and one can of Fanta I paid 27€ which I think it’s ridiculous and illegal to make up some random prices. Don’t go there!!!

    The 'cook' not interested in what I want. He was with his headphones on all the time. I actually wanted to order falafel - dine in. Without further details of what I wanted he prepared a wrap. Not much choice to add salads or sauces. Charged me 1.50 euro extra for using Visa. So a s****y wrap which I didn't want cost me 7 euros. Never going back to the place ever.

    I came very hungry late at night looking for a Döner. The service quality was poor. Still worse, I was horrified when I saw the guy making my Döner with a hamburger bun instead of Döner bread. If I wanted that, I would just go to McDonalds. I told him, and he just laughed thinking he was funny.

    Very good top kebabs and as an frequent kebab lover I love kebabs and feel like I have a strong when it comes to kebabs. Therefore to state this is the nicest kebab I've had while abroad as a tourist I find it hard to find a good cheap kebab shops but this one is something else, "everything all in one".

    Please give this old man a chance! I know this may be hard for you to try to eat in a restaurant with this low rating but trust me, it's worth it. The lamb kebab wrap we had was delicious as well as the Turkish pizza with kebab. Prices are average, wrap was for 5 €, pizza for six. But what got us the most was the old man that runs the restaurant. He was really nice and at the end when we tipped him he gave us a bottle of water in return. He simply didn't want to "owe" us anything. Never happened to us before.

    Place without prices so little bit expensive you’d expect. But 12€ per kapsalon?? Sorry but thats 40% more expensive than anywhere else. AND THE TASTE WAS AWFUL. Fries undercooked, meat tasted bad.

    Absolutely delicious doner. I liked it so much I came back the same day. The owner is very friendly, the service is fast and the food is amazing. Next to a lovely park to hang out in.

    Charged us €33 for 2 small kebabs and 2 pepsi. Place at other side much better and charges displayed prices Stealing money from tourists. Shame on them

    OK for the food! We were really hungry. The serving was warm. Portion was good as well. Enough for us. But what really hooked was the smile on the old man's face who was running it. Really open hearted and welcoming.

  • 1/5 Maxime G. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is a scam. They don’t display prices and don’t even show you the amount you have to pay. Very overpriced for little quantity. Don’t go

    got drunk and ended up at this place randomly. the Turkishes are super friendly and arrange me to a very nice seat with sufficient sauces. i went alone after seeing my friends but they are super polite and well treat towards women.

    Kebab wrap on the entrance menu clearly indicates 5 euro price. The owner charged us 7.50 euros each for the wrap without receipts ofc. Watch out and ask in advance because you never know how much you will have to pay for your food in the end despite the clearly written prices. The guy is a real sweet talker but do not be fooled and calculate well. Plus, kebabs are really small.

👍👍 The perfect place to enjoy high-quality seafood at a reasonable price. Was surprised to see this large restaurant buzzing at 5pm (both inside and outside!) but after seeing the fresh fish on display and trying the sashimi which just melts in the mouth I understood why. The staff were also very well-...
