    (Translated by Google) It used to be better, but now only standard. There is room for improvement. (Original) Es war mal besser , aber jetzt nur noch Standard. Luft nach oben ist da.

    Beautiful restaurant in a nice neighborhood. I ordered the Cağ kebab and it was very delicious ! The meat was cooked properly and felt very fresh. The only reason i gave it 4 is because it was a bit pricy; I paid 17,50 €.

    (Translated by Google) It is absolutely not worth getting in line! The hype is in vain. First, the shop is way too small to be called a restaurant. Second, the portion prices are so overpriced. Compared to other Turkish restaurants in Cologne, “Mangal” comes off really badly in terms of taste. Staff totally pushy, want to get everyone out immediately. Absolutely not recommendable! (Original) Es lohnt sich absolut nicht sich anzustellen! Der Hype ist umsonst. Erstens ist der Laden viel zu klein um ihn ein Restaurant zu nennen. Zweitens sind die Preise für die Portionen sowas von überteuert. Im Vergleich zu anderen türkischen Restaurants in Köln schneidet „Mangal“ geschmacklich wirklich schlecht ab. Personal total aufdringlich, wollen jeden sofort raus bekommen. Absolut nicht empfehlenswert!

    It's a good place for Turkish food, but you should have a reservation or stand in line.

  • 5/5 Zahid “Heavenscanwait” W. 7 years ago on Google
    Nice food, good prices, clean toilets, easily accessible. You might have to wait a little for a table to be free, but to me that means it is good restaurant. There is free Wi-Fi, but it isn't of much use; slow and unreliable. The quality of food though, compensates enough for poor Wi-Fi and 15 minutes of wait to be seated.

    Mixed Grilled for 2 It was really big plate!!! It was enough for 4 people actually 😂 there are lamb chops, shish kebabs, chicken and vegetables with salad and rice. Meat was a bit salty but quite good.Mixed Pita was like pizza😂 Ayran, I saw almost everyone had this white beverage, so we also followed them to try, actually it was a yoghurt drink, but a savoury version and good with kebabs, for more freshness 😆 After meal, must have a cuppa Turkish black tea for the ending, it was free, but a bit bitter so should add sugar to smooth it. Good Turkish meal in Cologne.

  • 1/5 Mehdi K. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff are very rude, impolite and unfriendly. Will never go there again. In every Turkish restaurant the first tea is always an offer, they don’t charge you for that, I didn’t like the food but was going to give a small tip like I always do in restaurants, but after I saw they charged me for the tea, I thought to not give a tip and pay the bill only which had service fee, then the guy was rude and saying mashallah in a sarcastic way and no one responded us when leaving, not even answered after I thanked them. Bad experience and never again when I’m paying 120€

    That’s a real Cag Kebab! You cannot find easily in Turkiye such good taste and quality in Homeland of this dish. The lamb meat was marinated very good and it was not overcooked. The salad and Pilav were also very good 👍🏼. The service was excellent and friendly. They bring tea after the dishes like in original Turkish culture. I will definitely come back :)

  • 3/5 Fatemeh M. 7 months ago on Google • 145 reviews
    A Turkish restaurant with Turkish friendly staff. We ordered Iskender, Doner and Urfa kebab. Food tasted good but could be better. They brought free tea after meal. The restaurant’s atmosphere was good , but toilet wasn’t clean. Generally not bad, but not recommended.

    Very good Turkish experience. Kebabs are grilled on charcoal, like Turkish tradition requires. Good selection of food, pides and dürüms are huge and reasonably priced. Excellent grilled meats. I recommend washing them all down with a glass of two of ayran.

  • 4/5 Justin L. 9 months ago on Google • 26 reviews
    Great food and quick service. The only challenge was the language barrier but it can be somewhat overcome. Being to see the open kitchen and watch them grill the meats is an added bonus! Parking nearby is ok but not very convenient.

    I can not say bad things taste of the foods and extra appetizers. Foods were delicious. When you want to order something, every waitress say “I will come”. You try again with the other waitress says “somebody will come”. I think it is not good hospitality.

    (Translated by Google) The grill plate was great, but the quality of the “Döberfleisch” didn't match the other meat. The lahmacun was great! All in all a good meal. The hot grill plate on the table made a great impression :-)! (Original) Der Grillteller war klasse, allerdings hat das „Döberfleisch“ von der Qualität nicht zum anderen Fleisch gepasst. Die Lahmacun war top! Alles in allem ein gelungenes Essen. Die heiße Grillplatte auf dem Tisch hat schon einen tollen Eindruck gemacht :-)!

The (otherwise good) restaurant does not live up to its own standards. ? (Original) Laut Selbst-Beschreibung auf der Website ein "weltoffenes" Restaurant. Aber alkoholische Getränke gibt es nicht.

    (Translated by Google) Unfortunately nothing for me. I would have expected more. Had to pay almost 4 € for a 0.2l cola which is served in a 0.1l glass. In addition, the meat was very hard or partially burnt. Unfortunately the salad tasted very old. Nevertheless, I am satisfied with the staff and the hygienic conditions. (Original) Leider nichts für mich. Ich hätte mehr erwartet. Musste für eine Cola 0,2l welche in einem 0,1l Glas serviert wird fast 4€ bezahlen. Außerdem war das Fleisch sehr hart oder teilweise verbrannt. Das Salat schmeckte leider sehr alt. Dennoch bin ich mit dem Personal und den hygienischen Bedingungen zufrieden.

  • 2/5 Michael H. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I lived around the corner for 3 years and was there more often. So can I give a judgment. I have to say that the quality has deteriorated since then. You only get the kebab smacked, there is little meat on it and frankly there are better kebabs for the price. Standing in line in front of the shop to wait is disproportionate. Another negative event was when I asked if it was open and a man with gray hair tears in the "Chicken Doner Shop" gave me such a boisterous answer that I thought it was the last time. (Original) Ich habe 3 Jahre um die Ecke gewohnt und war öfter da. Kann mir also ein Urteil erlauben. Ich muss sagen, dass sich seither die Qualität so was von verschlechtert hat. Man bekommt den Döner nur noch so dahingeklatscht, wenig Fleisch ist drauf und ehrlich gesagt für den Preis gibt es bessere Döner. Sich dafür noch in eine Riesen Schlange vor den Laden zum Warten zu stellen, ist unverhältnismäßig. Ein weiteres negatives Ereignis war, als ich mal fragte, ob offen ist und ein Mann mit grauen Haarstränen im „Hähnchendönerladen“ mir eine dermaßen pampige Antwort gab, dass ich dachte, dass war jetzt das letzte Mal.

    (Translated by Google) Today was the first time in the Mangal restaurant and are very satisfied. It was very well attended, so we had to wait 20 minutes outside until a table was assigned to us. But that wasn't so bad for us, since the Mangal staff provided us with drinks for free. We were very impressed by the ambience and the delicious food. Big portion! Very friendly staff. Everything was right. Hygiene during Corona time is very important here. Disinfectant dispensers are available at the entrance. The tables are cleaned immediately. Big compliments to the staff, who have to wear masks for the entire service and still remain very friendly. We would like to come again! (Original) Heute waren zum ersten Mal im Restaurant Mangal und sind sehr zufrieden. Es war sehr gut besucht, sodass wir draussen 20 min warten mussten bis uns ein Tisch zugewiesen wurde. Was aber für uns nicht so schlimm war, da uns das Mangal Personal kostenlos mit Getränken versorgte. Das Ambiente hat uns sehr beeindruckt sowie das leckere Essen. Große Portionen! Sehr freundliches Personal. Alles hat gestimmt. Hygiene zur Corona Zeit wird hier groß geschrieben. Desinfektionsspender sind am Eingang vorhanden. Die Tische werden sofort gereinigt. Großes Lob an das Personal, die den ganzen Dienst Maske tragen müssen und trotzdem sehr freundlich bleiben. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!

When I got there I waited about 30 minutes in a square, but after eating the food I came to the conclusion that it was definitely worth it. I definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone who is interested, you won't regret it because the food is delicious and the staff is very friendly.

    (Translated by Google) The food here is really delicious. So if you are in Cologne you can take a look here. I can only recommend it. However, I have to give an apunkt for the long waiting times. When the shop is full, you have to stand in line and people then line up and look inside. When you are eating, it is really very pleasant. Personally, I also think that the food tastes a bit bad than it used to be, but it can only be that I remembered it differently. I don't want to deduct an extra point for this and therefore give 4 points. (Original) Das Essen hier ist wirklich lecker. Wer also im Köln ist kann hier gerne mal reinschauen. Es ist wirklich nur zu empfehlen. Jedoch muss ich einen apunkt für die langen Wartezeiten geben. Wenn der Laden voll ist, muss man gerne mal anstehen und die Leute stehen dann an und schauen rein. Wenn man gerade am Essen ist, ist das wirklich sehr u angenehm. Ich persönlich finde auch, dass das Essen ein Ticken schlechtee schmekt als früher, jedoch kann es auch nur sein, dass ich es anders in Erinnerung hatte. Dafür will ich kein Extrapunkt abziehen und gebe deshalb 4 Punkte.

  • 4/5 Jack R. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The food: Good food. The food is served on a hot stone so that the food on the table is still sizzling and hot. I burned my mouth slightly for the first time in a restaurant. I mean that in a positive sense. I liked the Cağkebap best. You can't compare it to kebab. The meat is tender and not full of spices like a kebab so that you can't taste the meat. The skewer meat, especially the chicken, was a bit dry. The adanakebap was tasty, but it was a bit too spicy and dry. The lamb chop (a small piece) tasted great even without spices. The köfte was good too. Portion size At the beginning the portion looks small, but that is deceptive because the side dishes are served separately in a small plate. What was bad or not enough when eating. Side dishes: Very weak, not even worth a star. The rice tasted rancid and old. The bulgur was OK The fries were frozen and tasted disgusting The lettuce was old and the lettuce leaves yellowed. So that you don't notice it, you poured a lot of salad dressing into it. The bread was a catastrophe. Usually these restaurants bake their own bread and it is served hot with the meal. Here it was a finished product that was also served cold first. The bread was only heated when requested. The side plate consisted of three dips that were so-so. Ezme Haydari and another one with beetroot and yogurt. Beverages: The ayran tasted good. The tea, on the other hand, was old, boiled over or no longer drinkable with the addition of fresh water. Water was served in 0.2 cl bottles The ambience: The size of the restaurant is not yet visible in the entrance. But with the built-up vertical kebab, the cağkebap above the charcoal is an eye-catcher. At the back it is more cozy and beautifully designed, and the wall decoration in particular is a work of art. The table was a bit sticky and didn't look so clean. Especially on the end of the tsiches it was very sticky and dirty and sticky. On the wall there were traces of food or small traces. The furniture was reasonably comfortable Employee: The waiter who served us was very friendly, bright and courteous. The ones who worked on the kebabs seemed just as friendly. WC: It's been a long time since we've seen such a clean, hygienic Turkish restaurant. The toilets were piko bello clean. Attention, the floor tiles are very, very slippery even though the floor was not wet. Since the food is served on a hot stone and the side dishes on a smaller (too small) oblong plate, there is no space to cut the meat separately on the small plate. And I don't think it makes sense to take the food straight from the hot stone to cut and eat. Prices: The mixed plate cost 23 euros per person including the highlite Cağkebap, so vertical kebab. The small water 0.2 cl cost 2.5 euros And everything else like cola etc too. The Künefe (sweet dish with gratinated cheese) tasted good and cost 7.5 euros. In total, I paid about 65 euros for 2 people Which is okay. All in all, I would go there again and recommend. But I would also be open to an even finer restaurant. (Original) Das Essen: Gutes beim Essen. Das Essen wird auf einen heißen Stein serviert, so das dass Essen am Tisch immer noch bruzelt und es heiß ist. Ich habe mir zum.ersten mal den Mund leicht verbrannt in einem Restaurant. Das mene ich im positiven Sinn. Das Cağkebap hat mir am besten geschmeckt. Mann kann es nicht mit Döner vergleichen. Das Fleisch ist zart und nicht wie bei einem Döner voller Gewürze so das man das Fleisch nicht schmecken kann. Die Spießfleischstücken insbesondere das Hähnchen war etwas trocken. Der Adanakebap hat geschmeckt allerdings war er etwas zuviel gewürzt und trocken. Das Lammkotlett (ein kleines stücken) hat super geschmeckt auch ohne Gewürze. Der Köfte war auch gut. Portionsgrösse Am Anfang sieht die Portion klein aus, jedoch täuscht das da die Beilagen gesondert in einem kleinen Teller serviert werden. Was war schlecht bzw nicht ausreichend beim Essen. Beilagen: Ganz schwach, noch nicht mal einen Stern Wert. Der Reis schmeckte ranzig und Alt. Der Bulgur war i.O Die Pommes waren ein TK Produkt und schmeckten ekelhaft Der Salat war Alt und die Salatblätter vergilbt. Damit man das nicht merkt hat man jede Menge Salatdressing reingeschüttet. Das Brot war eine reine Katastrophe. Normalerweise backen diese Restaurants ihr Brot selbst und es wird heiß zum Essen serviert. Hier waren es ein Fertigprodukt das zudem als erstes Kalt serviert wurde. Erst nach Aufforderung wurde das Brot erwärmt. Der Beilagenteller bestand aus drei dips die so lala waren. Ezme Haydari und noch eins mit roter bete und Joghurt. Getränke: Der Ayran hat gut geschmeckt. Der Tee wiederum war Alt, überkocht oder mit frischwasser Zugabe nicht mehr geniesbar. Wasser wurde in 0.2 cl Flaschen serviert Das Ambiente: Im Eingang ist die größe des Restaurants noch nicht ersichtlich. Aber durch den aufgebauten Vertikaldöner den Cağkebap über der Grillkohle ein eyecatcher. Nach hinten ist es gemütlicher und schön designed.Gerade die Wanddeko ist schon ein Kunstwerk. Der Tisch war etwas klebrig und wirkte nicht so sauber.Gerade an der Eandseite des Tsiches war es sehr klebrig unf schmutzig klebrig.An der Wand waren essensspuren oder bunstifft spuren zu.sehen. Die Möbel waren einigermassen bequem Mitarbeiter: Der Kellner der uns bedient hat, war sehr freundlich, aufgeweckt und zuvorkommend. Die die am Kebapspies gearbeitet haben wirkten ebenso freundlich. WC: Lange nicht so ein sauberes, hygienisches türkisches Restaurant gesehen. Die Toiletten waren piko bello sauber. Achtung die Bodenfliesen sind sehr sehr rutschig obwohl der Boden nicht nass war. Da das Essen auf einen heißen Stein serviert wird und die Beilagen auf einen kleineren (zu kleinen) länglichen Teller hat man keine Platz das Fleisch gesonderr auf den kleinen Teller mundgerecht zu schneiden.Und ich denke nicht das es sinnvoll ist vom heißen Stein direkt die Speisen zu schneiden und essen. Preise: Der gemischte Teller kostete 23 Euro pro Person insclusive dem Highlite Cağkebap also Vertikaldöner. Das kleine Wassser 0.2 cl kostete 2,5 Euro Und alles andere wie Cola etc auch. Der Künefe (süssspeise mit überbackenen Käse) hat gut geschmeckt und kostete 7.5 Euro. Insgesamt habe ich für 2 Personen ca 65 Euro bezahlt Was in Ordnung geht. Alles im allen würde ich nochmal dahingehen und empfehlen. Aber ich wäre auch offen gegenüber einem noch edleren Restaurant.

    (Translated by Google) "Mangal" is Turkish and means "grill" in German. And this mangal is really good. A real restaurant with waiters and, above all, delicious food. This is real Turkish cuisine, far away from kebab shops (although I really like kebab). I was there with two friends and we are all excited. Keep it up! We will be back! (Original) "Mangal" ist türkisch und heißt auf Deutsch "Grill". Und dieser Mangal ist wirklich gut. Ein richtiges Restaurant mit Kellnern und vor allem einem total leckeren Essen. Das ist echte türkische Küche, fernab von Döner-Läden (obwohl ich Döner ja auch wirklich gerne mag). Ich war mit zwei Freunden dort und wir sind alle begeistert. Weiter so! Wir kommen wieder!

    I saw 4.3 star review, so went with my family for lunch. We ordered mix grilled dish. Food taste is ok but portion is less in comparison to price. Regarding hygiene ... has room for an improvement. So according to money value, I would not recommend. Actually in my opinion it deserves 3 stars, however it got already overall 4.3 stars.. which is much more than what it deserves... so I would give only 2 stars to try to keep the ratings more realistic. I will not visit this restaurant again.

    Very good kabab, like original Turkish Kabab. The please is nice and comfortable, stuff are friendly, has also "Laban Nearan" I recommended.

  • 5/5 Ziya E. 1 year ago on Google
    A solid example of a typical good Turkish kebab restaurant, where you can taste many different Turkish specialties. Diverse menu, awesome soups, delicious kebabs and good doner. I particularly enjoyed adana kebab and small lahmacun was also great. Staff is great, welcoming, friendly and super attentive. Must visit place, worth every penny.

  • 4/5 Marizela E. 1 year ago on Google
    Best doner ever You can’t have the sandwich in the restaurant though ;) that’s to go.. we didn’t know so we were seated and then we left with our food

  • 3/5 Christoph K. 2 years ago on Google
    Good food, no doubt. But the Çağ Kebab was out at 7.30pm on a Friday and the prices were way too high. As a local, because of the price, I would rate this as a bit of a "tourist trap".

    If you're in Cologne/Köln make sure you visit this place. Staff are really friendly and helpful, the food is a little pricey but imho well worth it for both quality and quantity.

  • 5/5 Iordan B. 1 year ago on Google

  • 1/5 Aistė K. 1 year ago on Google
    We came here and they told us to sit down. And we asked for the menu and they said they won’t give us the menu because they don’t do table service anymore. Even though they just took the order from the table just next to us. On google it says they are closing at 3 am. We came at 8:30pm. We asked why they can’t take the order anymore and he said just because….It looks like the guy who was working was racist and because we were not talking in Turkish or German he was really rude for us… don’t go there… discussing…

  • 1/5 Ieva K. 1 year ago on Google
    Bad service. They are rude and not serve tourists. The place is messy and they are not cleaning it. We sat at the table at 20:30, the waiter came and told us that "no more service", while the restaurant closing time is at 3:00 . If you are tourists, i am not recommeding this place!! Ali is the worst waiter ever. Whole restaurant staff are racist.

  • 1/5 Kęstutis K. 1 year ago on Google
    Rude personal, waiter Ali rejected our order at 9pm just because we are tourist and told us that they are not taking any more order, but other waiter came and did not mention anything about it. It racist place as I never seen it before

    You should try the chicken one. Beef doner was not that good if you compare with the chicken one. I tried both of them and as a Turkish it was delicious.

    Great Turkish food in the middle of cologne!!! This place had it all, kebabs shawarma, the works! The staff go out of their way to make sure you are happy. Everything was delicious... My recommendation; let the rice not the fries... The rice is the best I have had!

  • 2/5 Mehmet E. 8 months ago on Google
    Decent food quality in overall, soups were good I can say. There is a bearded guy who is never been in good mood when you asked for something.

    Nice food, and it was served on a hot plate. The grains variations are good. There was also a free basket of pita and rolls. They also provided me a new soft drink bottle for free when I pointed out a comment on the first one.

  • 2/5 Merag S. 5 months ago on Google
    Disappointed all over. The good service couldn't rescue the way below average dishes. Prices were higher than the competitors but the food was not good. I was a tourist and got tricked by their media presence, but I don't get why there were so many locals.
