Birlik Restaurant in Hilden

Breakfast is served daily from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Only if you find someone in the store. Waiting disrespectfully for over 20 minutes looks deserted. böyle bir müessesede bu kadar Sorumsuzluk olmaması lazım

This is a really nice place, the food is very good, and the desserts are wonderful. In one word, it's superb. Highly recommended.

Very tasty, authentic food. Unfortunately, this restaurant doesn't serve beer, or alcohol in general. I think a beer should be available to accompany a good meal.

Ah, I never recommend it, we went there thinking it was a Turkish restaurant, they forgot our order for 50 minutes, it can't be this irresponsible, it's absolutely beyond mediocre, and when we got up after 50 minutes, they had just started making it, and the lady at the cash register said, "What am I going to do with these?" I said, "You can give them to the Turks who come behind us" because I've heard it before and read in the comments here that they serve the leftover old dishes to the Turks under the name of "ours". It was a bad thing for me to say, I will never go again, I won't recommend it either.

Completely satisfied from the food to the service

Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed with my visit. I ordered a doner kebab, but the staff prepared it entirely to their liking—without asking me what I'd like in it. Unfortunately, the doner kebab was filled almost entirely with onions, with no sauce. The taste was extremely onion-heavy, almost as if I'd gotten an "onion turnover" instead of a doner kebab. It's a shame, because I was actually looking forward to a delicious doner kebab. Perhaps they'll pay more attention to customer preferences in the future—then I'll be happy to come back.

Due to a service accident, after a demolition and accident, the service was still polite and friendly and was repaired very quickly. Positive recommendation! Thank you, keep it up!

I ate their İşkembe and I couldn't eat two spoonfuls of it. It stinks to high heaven and tastes exactly as it smells. When I tried to address it, they showed virtually no understanding.

✨ Birlik Restaurant is a wonderful venue serving the most exquisite flavors of Turkish cuisine in a welcoming atmosphere! Its ample parking makes it very convenient for those arriving by car. Both its kebab varieties and traditional desserts leave an unforgettable taste. It's the ideal place to enjoy a pleasant time with family or friends. 🍴🇹🇷 👉 Just one point I noticed: While presenting the unique flavors of regional Turkish cuisine, it would be much better if traditional dishes like Beyti Kebab and Ali Nazik maintained their classic presentation. For example, some dishes were topped with pistachios; while they looked elegant, unfortunately, three pistachio-filled dishes at our table were left uneaten. If this small detail were addressed, the experience would be even more wonderful. 🙏

Service and ambiance were good, the food was quite greasy, but otherwise good. And prepared quickly.

Unfortunately, when the terrace section was added to the restaurant, the service quality decreased. In the past, their attention and care were quite good, but now they are trying to serve in a tiny barbecue pit, but orders come very late, there is no attention, it smells of smoke inside, I think this was my last time!!!

Food was only delivered after 2 hours. Unfortunately the food was almost cold

The food only arrived after 2 hours of delivery and was practically cold.

Waited 2 hours for food, very Ayip

Bad service, long waiting times, average food, too few staff.

Super friendly service, excellent food, fair prices...highly recommended all around.

The food was okay, but I wouldn't eat there again. It's fine for those who are hungry and don't have high expectations.

Very good food...good service 👍

Excellent food! Highly recommended. Delighted.

Are dogs allowed in the restaurant? A customer sat at the table next to us with his dog. The dog smell mingled with the food smell.

Sunday, August 31st: Breakfast was refused because we were a minute late. Instead, we ordered soup and pide – the wrong food arrived 50 minutes later. No concessions, just a mass processing. We were regulars with the whole family for a long time, but now: arrogant staff, declining quality. For us, that's it – never again.

The food was okay, but the service was very poor. We waited almost an hour for our food. Several guests who arrived after us received their food before us.

We received a very warm welcome at the Birlik Restaurant in Hilden, and the service was extremely friendly and accommodating. They even kindly let me charge my phone – truly thoughtful. The food was delicious and freshly prepared, and the portions were generous. My only minor criticism: on a Friday evening, with a full house, it took quite a while for the main course to arrive. However, the service was always smiling and attentive. All in all, a clear recommendation – we'd be happy to come back!

The food was really delicious and more than sufficient.

I'm calling out to Turkish citizens here: Don't go to this unity restaurant. If you ask why, there's a woman wearing a headscarf. She told the waiters behind the counter that I meant, "Give these leftovers from yesterday to our citizens, okay? Do you understand?" Today, I had to have soup again. A foreign family next door received baklava, and it had pistachios on it, even scattered across the plate. I was craving it. It looked nice, so I wanted it, but the baklava I received didn't have pistachios on it and didn't look as fresh as the one at the next table. The baklava at the next table was fluffy, but the one I received was thin and shrunken. In other words, Turkish citizens are treated as second-class citizens in this restaurant. It's unfair.

I was treated like a second-class citizen

Service was good, food was a little late but it was good.

If you are non vegetarian and love Turkish food, good choice

I went to Birlik for lunch today with my former colleague, and it was absolutely delicious. We received very friendly service and felt truly at home. Thank you so much, and we'd definitely be back.

We ate meat doner and lahmacun, it was good and the sink was clean.

Authentic Turkish restaurant with yaprak meat, good service, and large portions.

Unfortunately, our visit was a complete disappointment. We ordered three kebabs to go and only drove five minutes home, but the quality was still disappointing. The kebab wasn't very appealing visually: some of the sauces were scattered in the aluminum foil next to the bread, and the foil was completely soggy. After the first few bites, the kebab fell apart completely, making eating unnecessarily difficult. The texture was correspondingly unsatisfying—mushy, unstable, and barely edible without cutlery. The taste, unfortunately, was also disappointing. The meat was tender, but lacked any flavor. The "spicy" sauce was more reminiscent of a mild curry sauce from a chip shop. The red cabbage alternated between finely chopped pieces and thick, uneven chunks. The one star is unfortunately justified. This was definitely our last time.

We always love going there. The food is always incredibly delicious and freshly prepared. The staff are always friendly and strive to make your stay as pleasant as possible. You receive attentive service throughout, and you never have to wait long, whether for your food or a refill of tea. As soon as your plate is empty, someone comes over to ask if you need anything else. All in all, it's a place where you feel welcome and simply enjoy eating. Highly recommended!

Lentil soup isn't great, but the skewered meat and the sauces are great...

Unreachable by phone, no more meat at 7 p.m. Ridiculous!

How can you wait 27 minutes for a lahmacun and then it's still cold...

The food was very good—fresh, tasty, and authentically Turkish. However, the service left a lot to be desired: When I asked about non-alcoholic beer, the only response I received was that they didn't sell alcohol—which doesn't really help. The Coke size was also inconsistent when ordering multiple times—sometimes 0.2 liters, sometimes 0.3 liters. This shouldn't really happen. Overall, the visit is worthwhile for the food, but the service clearly needs improvement.

If you're looking for delicious flavors in a wonderful atmosphere, this is a restaurant you absolutely must visit. I highly recommend trying the meat pide (1.20 cm).

We were there today with two adults and two children. The restaurant makes a very nice impression at first. As we sat down, a waiter came to clear the dishes from the previous guests - greeting us was probably unnecessary. The food we had ordered (two portions of fries for the children, a lamacun, and another vegetarian dish) arrived in dribs and drabs... first the lamacun, then the vegetarian dish, and after a measly 45 minutes (after asking several times and canceling a plate of fries in the meantime), the fries finally arrived. Plus point: the second plate of fries was brought anyway, and one of them was on the house. The waiter didn't offer any apologies for the delay. When we wanted to pay, the boss (?) came and apologized, and we got another portion of baklava on the house. The food tasted okay - but I wouldn't go there again - especially not with children.

The food is always excellent. No matter what you order, everything is delicious. I like that they run out of doner kebabs on a given day—to me, that means there's a fresh kebab every day, and that's fantastic. My favorites are the baklava with kaimak and adana durum.

The food was okay. It felt like a large snack bar, not a restaurant. The service was okay, but overwhelmed by the number of tables.

I recently ate there and ordered beyti. Unfortunately, the meat was very raw at first. After I asked for a new dish, I did get a new one, but it was completely burnt. I've been there several times, but unfortunately, the food has never been truly convincing.

Great restaurant. Really warm service and above all you can tell that everything is absolutely fresh. A tip You have to try the Ayran. The prices are absolutely reasonable. Lots of opening offers to try. You should have a reservation on the weekend. Because the store has achieved a great reputation within a short period of time. Parking is also available. A real stone oven makes the homemade bread very tasty. It's worth trying

The service is catastrophic, unfriendly waiters, had to wait 40 minutes until a waiter finally came to the table, completely disorganized.

Bland salad, stale, sour meze (appetizers), cold, soggy rice, cold grilled food, poorly seasoned. Dirty tables and floors. Disgusting restroom. What can I say? We had stomach upset after half an hour. The prices are also disproportionate under these conditions! Things used to be different!

Great place. The food tastes great. Service is always friendly and attentive. We always enjoy going to this restaurant. The quality and price are right.

We ate döner on the leaf, we expected real döner but it was like the döner in the doner shops, I would not recommend it. Most of the people who went there ordered mixed grill and lahmacun.

Some ekmek like in Konya Simply awesome

Last week, I went to this restaurant with my family for dinner. The table we sat at was dirty, it took 15 minutes for the waiter to clean the table. The food tastes mediocre, there is no trace of the old quality. If you sit at the tables next to the windows, look down slowly to your side, you can't see your eyes because of the dirt. The sinks are filthy, you can't take a step. The waiters greet you with faces 5 inches wide. We also decided to drink ayran, but we regretted it. They put 1 spoon or less of yogurt in 1 glass of water, mixed it and brought it to us. I will never go there again.

I had breakfast and kebab at another time, both were great, I recommend it, it's a nice place.

The food is good, relatively inexpensive, and the staff is friendly. Parking is available, but quite tight. All in all, it's worth recommending.

The food is excellent, and the service staff, especially Deniz, is fantastic. Highly recommended.

Definitely, nice people, good service and delicious food.

I don't quite understand the restaurant's reputation. 1. There was no more doner meat left around 6 p.m. on a Sunday. And it must be said, it wasn't busy. It was more of a coming and going situation. 2. You could order, but the drinks took a while to arrive. It's no wonder, then, when the waiter keeps going out to smoke. 3. At the Adana kebab, you could count the fries. A bit steep for the price. 4. Instead of lamb, they shoved something else into our sac kavurma, but it definitely wasn't lamb. 5. We paid to a very grumpy/annoyed cashier. It was also interesting to observe that guests we apparently knew were served very quickly, even though they arrived later in the restaurant. The amount of food on their plates was also massively different from ours. Sure, you shouldn't compare, but with the same dishes???

I wanted to order takeaway. They said it would take 10 minutes. It turned out to be 25 minutes. Okay, I was offered a cup of tea instead. The food was delicious, if a bit spicy. BUT the value for money wasn't right. For €40, a doner kebab on fried cubes with yogurt and appetizers – very reasonable – for two people. The advertised pide with spinach was completely missing. We wouldn't recommend this place!

We were there for the second time today with six people and were absolutely thrilled! From the delicious breakfast to the large platter in the evening, everything was perfect. Friendly staff and delicious food at fair prices! The restaurant is always busy, so reservations are recommended. A small point deduction for the open-plan ambiance and the restrooms. While everything was spotlessly clean, it was in need of some renovation. We will definitely eat here again! 💖 Our recommendation for good food! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I was very disappointed when you order lentil soup it is onion soup and their dishes are not good the waiters are very rude

The grilled platter at Birlik is top-notch. Highly recommended. The service is also outstanding; always quick and attentive.

I have been there regularly with several people for about 8 years. Initially one of the best Turkish restaurants in North Rhine-Westphalia for us in terms of price/performance and quality and ambience. There are now new owners, as the staff say, and unfortunately you can see that in all respects. On the last three visits, all meat dishes except the chicken dish were left because they were inedible. Waiters pass it on but still collect the full price. Basically everything from the theory is still the same In practice, you do everything wrong. I think you'll notice that in your sales now. Add to that the dirty and bad-smelling toilet and kitchen at the back, no matter how beautifully the terrace was made. Isn't the turnover enough to slowly bring things up to speed? In any case, you have lost us All the best and much success for the future

We celebrated our wedding dinner in the Birlik Restaurant and were more than satisfied all around. From the loving decoration to the delicious food, everything was perfectly organized. Everything went smoothly. There were around 60 of us and we had our own area, which was very nicely prepared. The restaurant itself is also beautiful. The food was excellent and freshly prepared. The service was first class. The staff was attentive, friendly and always available. We were regularly asked if we would like to dance and appropriate music was played straight away, including a nice opening melody. The children were also thought of: they were able to play in the yard undisturbed, which relieved the parents a lot of stress. We can only recommend the Birlik Restaurant. It was an unforgettable evening, thank you for everything!

Everything was delicious, the order took a little long to arrive, but that's because we were busy.

Ate there twice so far. Class very satisfied.

I don't think it's good to wait 45 minutes for food, but the fact that other guests who came after us got their food before us was pretty cheeky! And my husband finished his food before I even got my food! No restaurant where we can eat again!

Very tasty and good service. Only recommended. I had a kebab pizza and cigköfte, both were great.

I had a meal here and had a kebab plate, it was super tasty and the service was extremely friendly and accommodating. The portion was very filling. Meat was well prepared, not too dry and not fatty. Would recommend it to everyone. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

Head-Paça is eaten in Birlik! 👍👍👍👍👍

Food was quite okay. The waiter was unfriendly. Could be something cleaner

Delicious food and the service could be more professional A request if you bring something to the table or bon appetit would be nice :)

It's a nice place to come with family. The employees are very polite both towards customers and among themselves. The food is delicious.👍 Almost full marks.

Unfortunately, I ordered two wrong portions of food yesterday. Instead of lamb I got beef and today on the phone I was insulted by it!!!

The food arrived cold and was prepared very carelessly.

The atmosphere is nice and cozy, the food arrived quite quickly and I got a portion of bread with tzatziki and a slightly hotter sauce, had a chicken skewer with rice; super tasty😋 and the service was absolutely friendly and accommodating. You can definitely eat really tasty food here 😃 I’d love to come back again!

Very very tasty 😋 🤤 I recommend🤩

It's a real shame. We walked in without a reservation and were told it was full and there was no way to give us a table. They didn't even bother to look. And we weren't allowed to take anything with us. Outrageous.

The price of the Ramadan menu is very disappointing. The value for money is not justified.

The best restaurant in the area. Fresh ingredients, juicy meat and a service team that takes care of you. We are and will remain regular guests 💕

The meat was very delicious, especially the lahmacun I ate was delicious, the tea was fresh, just like we make at home,

It has a great atmosphere. The number one place where you can have a meal that suits your taste with delicious food.

Are here right now. The food and service were phenomenal!

Unfortunately I can't report anything about the food, but if you're forced to sit next to other people even though you politely ask for a quiet place and everything is free and then you only get an unfriendly "no no" I don't think that's customer-oriented at all. Also difficult if the staff only wants to speak to you in Turkish. Unfortunately no recommendation

Even though the store was half empty, we were only assigned a seat either in the middle of the aisle or next to a group of eight with 4 children, where it is of course very loud. So you could forget about eating comfortably. For the chicken skewers you wanted to pay extra for the fries. This is the first time I've heard that fries cost extra when the chicken platter costs €17. So you could choose between rice and bulgur. The bulgur was already clumpy and cold. The “salad” consisted of some cabbage, carrots and onions just slapped together. So the only thing left was the chicken skewer, which didn't taste particularly good either. The drinking bottles were grabbed by the neck and the glasses were placed upside down on the dirty table. All in all the worst restaurant I've been to.

Chicken and ayran exceptionally good. The rest is of high quality, but not exceptional in my opinion, but that's also a matter of taste. There is nothing to complain about in terms of reception, service and ambience. I'll be happy to come back

Woww super fresh food It was great, we had a quick lunch break there, don't believe the negative reviews, try it locally. We will definitely come back, it is absolutely fresh and also very good service. I'm looking forward to trying all the other things. Please keep it up 8 stars instead of 5

Delicious food. Unfortunately the drinks offer is free and very expensive.

Ideal location for a delicious meal with a large group. Great service and diverse selection

Meats are always fresh and make you feel super “delicious”. Otherwise, of course, you can get better.

Steak and chicken skewer plates and the rice were served cold and carelessly. In addition, the side dishes for the steak were missing. When the waiter was made aware of this, he also took 10 minutes. It was pretty empty at the time so the service could definitely be more attentive. Not recommended, especially not for the price/performance ratio.

This is not a restaurant. If anything a better snack bar. In any case, it's not comfortable. The table that had already been set was not clean. The side salad with the lamb chops and the steak, loveless and the carrots tasted like fish. Inedible. This was also confirmed by my two companions. The bulgur was only lukewarm. Flexibility also seems to be a foreign word. We wanted fries instead of rice with the rump steak. We were then told that this was not possible and that we would have to order fries separately. We only wanted 2 chicken skewers for our child, which wasn't possible here either, so we should choose a children's plate. I then said that we would have to throw away everything except the meat since my child is not a chipper. Then they turned a blind eye and brought 2 skewers, see picture, some burnt black. For these 2 small skewers on the plate without anything you paid 12.50 euros! We were still billed for 1 coke too much, which unfortunately we only realized when we got home. It was my birthday, my husband had organized that a candle on baklava be brought to me (they apparently couldn't do anything else, although the surprise was of course sweet). The only way I know it is that a little something is on the house for a birthday (we ate a total of around 120 euros!!) but we were charged 6.50 euros for the baklava. Overall, the store is totally overrated. We still gave the waiter a generous tip, he was trying hard and we made the best of it. Nevertheless, that was the first and last time there and unfortunately no recommendation.

Very tasty steak 😋 nice service, didn't have to wait long. Katmer was also very tasty 😻very fair prices

Authentic store with reasonable prices, good atmosphere, friendly staff and good food. Overall a very great shop.

We often visit this restaurant Berlik and are always pleasantly surprised. The food is always freshly prepared and very tasty. The staff is consistently friendly and accommodating. The interiors have been enlarged which has improved the ambience. However, we would like to see better parking options as this can sometimes be a challenge. Despite the parking situation, we would like to come back because the quality of the food and the service are convincing.

5 out of 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Today we had the pleasure of eating at this restaurant for the first time and we absolutely loved it. The service was excellent: attentive, friendly and accommodating. The dishes impressed not only with their quality, but also with their excellent taste. What is particularly noteworthy, however, is the restaurant's clear differentiation from the usual beverage brands such as Coca-Cola. Instead, a wonderful selection of alternatives such as Cola Turka or Uludag Gazoz are offered. As someone who consciously boycotts Coca-Cola and similar companies, I was pleasantly surprised to finally find a restaurant that shows responsibility in this way. For me, this is a decisive plus point that significantly influences my choice of restaurant. A restaurant that not only impresses with culinary delights, but also shows attitude. We'll definitely be back!

We have been invited there by a good friend of us which I think was the best thing they did for us

The Birlik Restaurant in Hilden offers a wonderful ambience that invites you to linger. The menu is varied and offers authentic Turkish dishes that are freshly prepared. Particularly noteworthy is the mixed grill plate "Karışık Izgara", which is available for up to four people and is served with rice or bulgur. The employees, from the manager to the lady at the checkout, are extremely friendly and accommodating, which makes the stay particularly pleasant. The restaurant is ideal for solo travelers as well as for couples or families in love. High chairs are available for families with children and there is sufficient parking space directly at the restaurant. In addition, the food is halal and no alcohol is served. Another highlight is that all meat dishes are processed in our own butcher shop in Solingen, which speaks for the freshness and quality of the food. After the meal, a free tea is often offered, which rounds off the visit perfectly. The Birlik Restaurant is therefore an absolute recommendation for anyone who wants to enjoy authentic Turkish cuisine in a warm atmosphere.

We went out to eat as a family and had mixed opinions. Overall it was fine. The service was nice and courteous.

Everyone should try the restaurant. You'll be surprised at how quick and friendly the employees are. Great and inexpensive food. We recommend.

We went there 4 adult, and ordered different food. İskender and Adana were good, but others were not. Lahmacun and pide were below the average. Service was so slow. Tea was cold. Prices are OK. Would I go there again. No. I would prefer some other places to try.

Absolutely not recommended on the weekend! Unfortunately, it's completely understaffed and the waiters are anything but attentive. We first waited 30-40 minutes in the cold, then another 30 minutes for a waiter who only half-heartedly set the table. We had to wait an additional 15 minutes when simply asked if kebab meat was still available. The meal itself took another almost an hour. Previously you could simply replace the fries in the dish with rice, but now you have to pay extra for them. As if the prices weren't already high enough, there's also this additional cost trap. Really disappointing

Nice service, best waiter Mr. Emrah. Food very fresh and tasty 😋

I've eaten well here several times...sometimes something was forgotten from the order...but it wasn't charged either
