    The food looks delicious but only looks. It doesn’t taste like anything. This place used to serve one of the best gyros in the area. I don’t know what happened but now it literally has no taste. The service is okay, could be nicer. All in all, I won’t be returning for a while to test again. The only reason it gets two stars is because the portion is large enough and it does actually look tasty. Too bad it’s not. If you want to eat good gyros you’ll have to look elsewhere.

    If the red haired woman is taking your order A BIG YES. But let’s talk about the brunette girl. I told her i want more sauce and i received no sauce at all. She is superficial and incapable of taking an order correctly. Everything is good there EXCEPT her and the wrong orders she makes. People like this should never be hired.

    NOT RECOMMENDED! We ordered Iskender kebab and Adana kebab, the food was smelly and cold. It wasn’t addible at all and all of it went to waste. The only thing we could eat from the dishes was the yoghurt. The meal costed well over 12 euros for each dish. WASTE OF OUR TIME AND MONEY

    We came here twice, the meat both chicken and beef kebab are delicious, not too salty nor dry. Also I really love the idea that you can have a whole plate of water melon ! Super healthy and economic for your wallet.

    If you are a Muslim and searching for Hala food near the Nyugati railway station then this is a better place. This place is opened during Sundays also ☺️ If you are on a vacation to Budapest on weekends and searching for good food then this is one of the place where you can grab nice veg and nonveg food.

    At 2am, I dined in. The food tasted like it had been cooked ages ago. Today, I had upset stomach. This has happened previously. It is open when most of the other food outlets are closed, so that's a nice thing that I can say. I would not risk going again though.

    Good option for a late night feed. The standard of kebabs/gyros/Turkish food in central Budapest is not great in general dry or processed tasteless meat, little toppings and small kebabs. Star is decent in comparison, at least the chicken gyro is better although they put too much sauce, the lentil soup served with bread is filling and tasty. The ambience inside is a bit classier than a regular place and they have a large range of food. Decent option, not amazing, not bad.

    The food was good but the WORST SERVICE in Budapest, the cashier was very rude and unfriendly and even accused us that she gave us our drinks when we even didn't take any drinks at all and then she started speaking Turkish tho we don't understand it at all. It's very sad that such good restaurant has a cashier like that. 2/5/2022 at 14:30.

    I have visited this restaurant on several occasions and have sampled a range of their dishes. Overall, I would say that it's a good restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere and a decent selection of food. While there used to be a waiter who would offer a complimentary small glass of tea at the end of the meal, this service seems to have been discontinued recently. Despite this, I still think that this restaurant is a worthwhile option for those looking for a decent meal at a reasonable price. While it may not be the best restaurant I've ever visited, it certainly holds its own when compared to other options in the area. If you're in the mood for some good food and a relaxed atmosphere, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

    One of the many branches of Star Kebab in Budapest. I got a takeaway for the chicken Döner which was quite average with less sauce and spicy even though I had mentioned to make it spicy. The restaurant was quite big with pretty good variety of sweets among other things. But the doner was a flop for me :(

    Ate here twice. Food was average and fast service. If you speak in English the staff are rude and pretentious. If you speak in Hungarian they have a better attitude. Received spoiled food during the SECOND visit. Less than 12 hours later my partner and I woke up with diarrhea and sickness... AKA...FOOD POISONING. Do not risk it, this restaurant clearly does not follow health and safety practices with food items. If you read through there are more than enough customer reviews who experienced food poisoning from this restaurant. Do not be like us and get food poisoning. DO NOT RECOMMEND IF YOU DON'T WANT FOOD POISONING ON YOUR HOLIDAYS.

    We ate two times here during our stay. We were satisfied with the quality, service and the prices.

  • 2/5 Nick L. 10 months ago on Google
    One of the worst kebabs I have ever eaten. Dry, pale wrap with no signs of grilling, tasteless cold meat, watery tomatoes and pieces of bone to complete this disaster. It must have taken an inspiration to create a kebab so utterly bland and unappealing. The service is fast, but otherwise there are no redeeming qualities about this place.

  • 4/5 Gyorgy R. 1 year ago on Google
    My all time fav is the very tasty and huge chicken gyro plate. A bit pricy but worth trying. Serving is fast and there're a lot of seats.

  • 5/5 Swag M. 7 months ago on Google
    One of, if not the best of Kebabs in Budapest. Seasoning and freshness is top notch. Strongly recommended. I asked for extra meat, I got extra. :)

  • 5/5 Jemma R. 8 months ago on Google
    Best kebab in Budapest. Staff are lovely. The kebabs are so affordable and fresh. Easy window to order at from the street.

  • 5/5 Andrei G. 10 months ago on Google
    One word... delicious. Very good food, fresh and prepared on the spot. I recommend adana kebab.

  • 4/5 chihung l. 1 year ago on Google
    we had a good time here. the food was not the best but okay. some plates were cold but you can ask them to heat it, VERY IMPORTANT !!!! Not the best service but passable, some of the staffs should smoke more 🙂 Like the hot Turkish tea 🫖 to warm me up in the winter. Lots of food and lots of people when we were there so be aware

  • 5/5 ádám s. 2 years ago on Google
    Just like in Turkey. :) The lentil soup is amazing, the rest is also ok. Plus they have proper turkish tea.

  • 3/5 Icke Micke (. 1 year ago on Google
    I was there twice in March 2022. I always had a kebab to go for 1000 forints. On my first visit it was a good portion and I was full. On the second visit I got a mini portion for the same money and I had to buy something else to eat... Rather average in terms of taste, I've eaten much better kebabs, but also worse ones. What is so difficult, always giving out the same quality or portion size? After that I looked for another restaurant.

  • 4/5 Richard Lacey (. 1 year ago on Google
    Proper nice grub, service was simple and quick. I ordered a beef gyros tortilla, the salad was fresh, tortilla was soft, the meat was tasty. The only thing that would have made it a five in my opinion would be more hot and spicy. I didn’t take a picture, I was way too hungry to even think about it.

  • 3/5 Noor A. 1 year ago on Google
    Not the best alternative for a nice lunch, the french fries 🍟 is dry and hard, the gyros meat also not the perfect quality. Salads and rice are tasty, that's all.

  • 2/5 Vince T. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a kebab here on a Friday at midnight. Expensive, sauce and meat had zero taste, french fries were soggy, tasted like it was from the day before. Only giving an extra star, because the building looks nice from the inside. Avoid, unless you are wasted.

  • 3/5 Andrejs B. 1 year ago on Google
    Popular place. Something was missing from the food, I hoped it would taste better. Prices could be cheaper.

  • 5/5 Parohy 2 years ago on Google
    I had a lot of kebab, but this was the best ever beef kebab i had in my life. Service did give me box instead of sandwitcht as I asked, but it was abdolutely delicious! For that price? You must be an idiot not to visit.

    Nice and affordable Turkish restaurant. Good quality food. Stays open very late into the night..

  • 4/5 T.C. Leeuw, d. 2 years ago on Google
    The 950 Ft gyros 'with everything' is well-layered and flavourful - no need to add any sauce -- with a bit of a carrot greens taste. The meat surprisingly was room temperature within the 30 seconds we took to get to a table, even though the streetside counter blasted heat during purchase. What happened in-between I still don't know. Perhaps hungarians prefer lukewarm meat and carrot greens? Perhaps the chicken meat (850 Ft) is heated? Still, much cheaper (~3 EUR) than my comparisons. Overall better taste balance compared to Dutch kebab (5 EUR, Groningen, Den Haag), but the meat is more lean than German kebab (7 EUR, Soul Kebab in Hamburg). I'm not sure I could ask for even better taste balance for the price and the halal label. The 500 Ft baklava was disappointing - it's big (as is everything in the store), but part of the dough was uncooked; I found it lacking flavour in the pistachios, honey and cooked pastry dough; my partner found it too sweet. The baklava was kept on the counter so it was also room temperature. I would have preferred a smaller, warm piece with better taste -- or maybe it's supposed to be heated at home? Regardless, try a different dessert, maybe one of the large looking watermelon slices. The halal label is noteworthy because most kebab in budapest isn't halal and there's to my knowledge only one halal butcher. Interestingly half of the customers seemed non-muslim young professionals sitting outside or having takeaway, while the rest were muslim using the indoor seating. The interior is quite beautiful and has a lot to look at: the counter, multiple well-placed mirrors, clean looking kitchen, beautiful decorations at the walls and a dome roof, large paintings and religious symbols. Tasteful and professional, more thought-out and less tacky than most fast food branches. If a hotel was decorated like this restaurant, it'd be 4 to 5 stars.

    Really good we had lunch here delicious .would definitely recommend ,so clean👍❤️❤️

  • 5/5 Almo 2 years ago on Google
    The food here was excellently cooked, just as you want it and in a huge proportion. The prices are also very cheap compared to the quality of the food, and the service; which was excellent too with very nice and funny staff. Definitely a 10/10 and would gladly come again and recommend it to other people.
