Akam's Heidelberg in Heidelberg

This is my favorite place in Heidelberg. Highly reccomend! The food is always good and fast. Probably the only actually healthy "fast food"

Great shop, elegant decor, friendly, fast service, and everything fresh. I just find the various pastes and hummus to be way (!) too salty. Even with flatbread or a piece of vegetables, it's way too much.

This is my second time here, and I love the food. It's really delicious. The people are very friendly, and the atmosphere is very pleasant.

Very tasty Arabic food. Akam's special platter is delicious.

Clean, very tasty. The best so far

The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was very nice and clean for a business in a commercial area. I'd be happy to come back.

Super tasty, highly recommended!

The fast-food restaurant appears very hygienic and clean. The quiet atmosphere is pleasant, and it's easy to have a conversation. The food was delicious and attractively presented. The prices are reasonable. We'd be happy to come back.

A dream of a schwarma. Very fresh and delicious. A must-try if you're in Heidelberg. Highly recommended 👏❤️

Great, delicious, large portions… wonderful

We went to the site to check it out, and the employee's explanation was very friendly and helpful. I thank him for that. A Middle Eastern restaurant. Falafel, appetizers, salads, rice, and saj chicken.

Very tasty, only the portions have become smaller and the prices for a lunch have become quite high.

I first stumbled upon this fantastic spot through a food delivery app, and wow, what a discovery! The food was so fresh, flavorful, and satisfying that I knew I had to experience it in person. Visiting the restaurant confirmed everything I hoped for and more. The place is spotless, cleanliness clearly matters here. The staff are incredibly warm and welcoming, making you feel like a valued guest from the moment you walk in. The food? Absolutely delicious. Every bite tastes homemade, with fresh ingredients and real care in preparation. Prices are super reasonable, and what really stood out to me is how open they are to special requests. Whether it's a tweak to a dish or an extra wish, they accept it with a smile and deliver with excellence. This isn’t just a restaurant, it’s a place that gets everything right. I’ll definitely be coming back, and recommending it to everyone I know.

Great! Super delicious. Colorful plate.

Falafel with baba ghanoush. Brutally delicious 🥰

Truly delicious. A modern ambiance, cleanliness, and quick preparation round out the whole experience. 10 out of 10. 👍

Excellent food and the self-service restaurant is really nicely decorated.

Food was very tasty and clean and staff very friendly

Just wow, everything perfect: food, atmosphere and attention to detail.

Fantastic Lebanese/oriental food. Some of the best Fallafel I've had, the shwarma is nice too, but their mixed platter is honestly a collection of pure goodness!!! A+ would recommend.

Akam's delicious veggie special! Everything was fresh, clean, and delicious!

Simply fantastic. The service was excellent, fast, and high-quality. The dishes were expertly prepared and the flavors were balanced. Thank you all.😍😍

Akam's in Heidelberg is simply fantastic! Fresh, delicious food, generous portions, and a friendly team. The value for money is absolutely spot on – for me, it's one of the best places in the city for a truly good meal.

A taste explosion! Delicious food, everything freshly prepared.

Good value for money. For around €7, you get a delicious wrap that's also reasonably filling. It's a great place to end the evening on the terrace with a gentle breeze after a hot summer day.

Aside from the wraps, the price-performance ratio isn't right at all. If I'm paying €14 for a plate, I want to be full afterward.

Truly sensational food. The shawarma plate for two was especially delicious!

Very tasty warm food, falafel tastes delicious, quick preparation, very nice and well-kept atmosphere and very friendly service

Excellent service and very good quality food. Pleasant and quiet atmosphere. Highly recommended, especially for people staying in nearby hotels where there aren't many nighttime options.

Delicious food! Found it through Google and definitely worth it.

Very nice place, food was excellent.

There's plenty of room for large groups, and the food is freshly prepared and delicious! You can help yourself to complimentary black tea.

Jean and I think it's delicious

More than just a snack, delicious & fresh

A lovely little shop with delicious shawarma. You can tell the crew is very busy.

Very clean and delicious restaurant!

Delicious food and very friendly staff.

The restaurant impressed me with its cleanliness 😍 The service is very fast and the food is delicious and filling 😍 The prices are somewhat high, but acceptable ❤️ I thank all the staff there, they deserve the presentation and five stars 👏🏻🙏🏻

The most delicious food I had during my trip to Germany 😍🤌🏻 I'm serious

Very tasty 😋 food. Highly recommended. Friendly service.

I really liked this restaurant. The cooks/servers were very friendly and personable. The food was also very good. I really recommend this place.

Delicious and fresh, surprising flavors!

Simply delicious! It looks very clean, and I find the location quite relaxing :) It's a bit more expensive, I must say—compared to similar restaurants downtown, of course. It was still worth it!

Very poor value for money! Portions are getting smaller and smaller – prices are going up! Very disappointed.

Super fresh and delicious food 👍 Friendly team

Very delicious food. I recommend Akam's special shawarma plate.

Super delicious and fresh! Service was prompt. And the decor is nice, too. It's great that you can sit outside in the shade. Parking is free, but only on the street. But it's worth it. I'd definitely go back.

One of the few restaurants in Heidelberg where you don't feel ripped off.

Delicious food – we had the Akam's special platter, as per the reviews – and found it to be very flavorful and reasonably priced. The food was prepared right in front of us, which is great – there's nothing to hide. We'll be back next time we're in Heidelberg.

The quality was quite good at first, but unfortunately it's steadily declining. The meat is too dry, the rice isn't fresh, and there are fewer sauces on the plate, but everything is getting more and more expensive. There are no suitable portions for children.

Highly recommended! I had a special chicken dish, which was incredibly delicious. Everything is prepared with fresh ingredients. It was one flavor explosion after another... Everything was very clean... and the staff was friendly.

extremely delicious food, quick preparation, whether vegetarian, vegan or with meat

Located 2 minutes walk from our hotel, we just had to have our evening meal here! Excellent food with lots of vegan choices! I had the baba ganoush falafels and lentil soup. Full of flavour and very filling! Excellent value for money too.

Amazingly tasty, fresh and good food! If you ever go to Heidelberg, you should definitely try Akam's. Thanks, guys! :)

It's self-service. The food was fresh, tasty, and good, and fairly priced. It was certainly great for lunch, but unfortunately not quite enough for my main meal in the evening.

We had the mixed platter for two people. It was amazing ❤️ Everything was fresh and perfectly seasoned. The price was unbeatable.

It was a delicious meal and is recommended👍

Delicious food Reasonable prices Very fast and friendly service

We enjoyed a wonderful meal in a friendly atmosphere. Both the vegetarian and meat dishes were delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. We would love to come back.

A relatively new oriental restaurant. Simple but clean and tastefully decorated. The food is fairly priced and very tasty. The staff could be a bit friendlier. I'd happily return anytime.

One of the healthiest *and* tastiest meals I've had on this vacation. Thank you! 😊

Good food. I'm very glad to the service

Unique experience, I recommend it to anyone coming to Germany

The food looks good But unfortunately the staff is very rude.

Top shop with the best falafel north of Beirut.👍👍

Delicious Syrian food, freshly prepared. Highly recommended! Friendly staff, relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

Colorful food! As delicious as it is aesthetically pleasing.

There's no rotisserie for shawarma. The workers are unprofessional. There's no receipt after payment. The restaurant is clean, the place is pleasant, and there's parking right across the street.

I stopped by spontaneously. Unfortunately, there were no tables available, but they offered me a great alternative. I ordered food and ate it around the corner on the terrace. It was delicious, served quickly, and the staff was very friendly. Thank you so much 😁

Super delicious food. Very friendly staff.

Very tasty food freshly prepared

Very tasty food! Everything was freshly prepared.

Always fresh, fast and super tasty :)

Everything was super tidy and clean. The staff was friendly, and the food was surprisingly delicious and appetizingly presented.

Finally, something different, and in a great execution! The plate: Shawarma with chips, is absolutely top-notch and consists of several different samplers 🌸

The food is incredible, and we were served very well and quickly. The menu price is well-deserved :)

Relatively expensive in comparison. H

Great shawarma, and the mixed platter was also very impressive! The staff is very friendly and the place is inviting! 😁 I'd gladly go again😎

The Akams is located in an industrial district of Heidelberg, not far from the main train station. The first impression of this Arabic restaurant was absolutely great: very nice design, super clean and tidy, from the counter to the toilet. The arrangement of the food at the counter immediately whetted our appetite for delicious Arabic specialties. Even though there were a few customers in line ahead of me, I got there quickly and my fresh shawarma was handed out to me quickly. Unfortunately it wasn't quite my taste, probably because I'm used to a different way of preparing it. Therefore a point deduction. Nevertheless, I will go back and try other dishes - I couldn't decide what to order from all the good looking treats. It's definitely worth trying out, I've heard it's the best Arabic restaurant in Heidelberg... :) Addendum: I've been here two more times now and have to say: the Akams special plate, whether veggie or not, is absolutely recommended!

Unfortunately a very disappointing order from Akams Heidelberg. We had looked at the homepage on the Internet in advance because we wanted to order vegetarian food for a birthday. According to the homepage, a vegetarian plate (Akam's special plate vegetarian) costs 10 euros per person. We ordered the record by phone in advance and arranged a pickup time. The record was not ready at the agreed time. I was told she needed another 10 minutes. In total I had to wait almost 30 minutes. Uber eats drivers who arrived after me received their orders before me. Among other things, a large record like ours. The reason given was that they had unfortunately forgotten my order. The next nasty surprise was the price. I didn't have to pay 10 euros per person for my plate as I thought, but 15. The amount entered in the cash register was 13 euros and then somehow rounded up to 15 euros. When I asked the cashier about it, he gave me a flimsy explanation that that was the price. I didn't receive a receipt. Since we needed food for the guests and I had already lost a lot of time, I grudgingly paid for the plate and took it with me. I thought it was a shame that no goodie or discount was given for the unreasonable waiting time. About the food: the falafel on the platter was really tasty. But a lot of other ingredients were saved. There was so little halloumi on the plate that not every guest could even get a piece. The board was also tight in other respects. There were almost only women in attendance and so the creams were just enough. The flatbread, the fried vegetables and the halloumi mentioned were quickly empty. For the price I definitely had different expectations and I didn't think the way I was treated in the store was okay despite having pre-ordered it. Not recommended.

A very nice atmosphere, extremely delicious food and an extremely friendly and attentive team - including the boss. I can only recommend eating here or just trying it out. You feel like you're at home.

I love it here. It is always very tasty, fresh and healthy. The staff is also very friendly and accommodating. I have always been from Heidelberg and Akams has impressed me the most so far

Simply awesome, there were eight of us and we ate well and quickly 1000 stars thank you

The food was great and the falafel was delicious with great side dishes. The restaurant is self-ordering, simply furnished and clean. A lot of items are also picked up there for people taking away from home. We ate there twice and it was consistently delicious. We'll be back!

Very tasty and fresh food of top quality:) Great value for money

Akams is my daily must stop, best shop, best people! Always fresh, always friendly. Regular customer with conviction!

Very tasty 😋 and also tastes very tasty

Food is delicious and when ordered arrives fast.

Very tasty food, everything fresh and perfectly seasoned. We'll definitely be back.

All very tasty, we ate here twice in a row because it was so good. Clear recommendation for people who like oriental food. Thanks for the good food

It was very tasty. I'd love to come back

Food arrived cold, it wasn't normal shawarma meat (chicken breast cut by hand), falafel was hard as a stone, everything was fried and greasy

The atmosphere is nice but the food doesn’t taste authentic at all! It’s not the worst but it could be much better. The shawarma came cold and we had to ask for it to be reheated. The tea was good.

ما شاء الله May الله bless you abundantly! The food is indescribably delicious and fresh. The preparation doesn't take long. You can't get enough of it. The staff is very friendly. Absolutely a must for anyone who values ​​halal, freshness, cleanliness and taste.

I had “Falafel with Baba Ganoush”. Brilliant! That was one of the best dishes I've ever eaten. The food arrived super quickly and tasted fantastic. A very big recommendation for everyone!

A very pleasant place! Cleanliness and a well-kept ambience create a welcoming atmosphere. The service is attentive and professional. The kitchen impresses with fresh and tasty dishes. Definitely a recommendation for anyone who appreciates quality!

Very good, tasty food. Very large portions. Halal compatible. Our guests from Malaysia were very satisfied

Was good! The selection is huge, vegan too. Super tasty, portions are large. Service is nice, recommended something to us and that was good. Open on Sundays, not too crowded. For people staying in B&B is also great- the food is nearby.

We went there for lunch on a recommendation. The food was delicious, and the service and atmosphere were more like a cafeteria. It won't be our last visit ✌🏻

Hidden but delicious shawarma Akams in Heidelberg is a true hidden gem for shawarma and falafel. The restaurant is modern and stylishly decorated, with an open kitchen that makes the ambience even more pleasant. The selection of dishes is large and the price-performance ratio is absolutely harmonious. Everything tastes fresh, well seasoned and is perfectly balanced. I chose the Akams special plate, and I was not disappointed. The chicken was tender, juicy and excellently seasoned. The homemade creams that went with it were simply delicious and rounded off the dish perfectly. Overall, I can only praise the food, service and value for money. It was a very tasty dinner and I will definitely come back.
