Bizim Corbaci Deluxe - Gelsenkirchen in Gelsenkirchen

Friendly service, delicious food and open buffet breakfast.

Food is okay, but I have never seen such rude staff

Very friendly service, the owner is friendly and polite, we even got free coffee and had a nice chat

The food is truly delicious – the doner kebab is especially highly recommended! The staff is extremely friendly, and the service is excellent overall. The shop is very clean and well-maintained, which leaves a very good impression. I was particularly impressed by the man at the cash register – very polite and courteous. I will definitely be back!

Very friendly service, and the food was also delicious. We left with full stomachs.

The prices are high here, as everywhere else, but there are still many customers. The employees are stressed because someone is constantly intervening, which reminds me of the working environment in Türkiye. Although it is a kebab restaurant, the waiting times are a bit long. I ordered lamb tava but they brought beef tava. I didn't complain so as not to cause an argument, but the meat was quite tough, so I had a hard time. Still, I might give this place another chance.

Fast service. Friendly staff. Prices were also very reasonable.

So if you're not in the mood for the usual veal/chicken/turkey doner and prefer steak, you absolutely have to try this steak doner; it's simply delicious. The bread is special and doesn't get soggy as quickly because it doesn't have a lot of dough inside. Just try it and you'll know what I mean 😉 You also don't need a lot of sauce, which would ruin the taste of this delicious steak. The ambiance is great and fits the restaurant's concept. The staff is always super friendly and helpful; even if you order takeaway, you're always offered tea. GREAT VALUE FOR MONEY!!! You get really good portions for your money. Highly recommended!

Highly recommended. We were just there at around 2:30 a.m. Super tasty, super fresh, and super friendly.

This was my first visit. Bizim Corbaci has a very large selection, from doner kebabs, soups, pide, and even desserts. I ordered a yogurt soup (yayla çorbası), a doner kebab plate with rice, and peach iced tea (Elephant Bay Iced Tea, in my opinion the most delicious iced tea ever). The soup was delicious. The doner kebab is one of the tastiest I've tried (it's in my top 3). If I'm in Gelsenkirchen again, I'll definitely stop by.

I visited Bizim Çorbacı Deluxe in Gelsenkirchen today and left with mixed feelings. The food itself, especially the Turkish specialties, was very tasty and truly delicious. Unfortunately, there was one serious incident that significantly marred my experience. I found a piece of glass in one of the dips, which I had in my mouth while eating and chewed on. This is, of course, not only extremely unpleasant but also potentially dangerous. What disappointed me most, however, was the staff's reaction. When I reported the incident, they simply asked if everything was okay. A sincere apology or a gesture of goodwill, such as a price reduction or replacement, unfortunately did not materialize. I would have expected a more professional and understanding response. Due to the good taste, I'm still giving it 3 stars, but the incident with the glass and the staff's lack of response are absolutely unacceptable and left a very negative aftertaste. I hope the restaurant takes this opportunity to improve its quality control and handling of customer complaints.

The döner is very good, the atmosphere is nice.

Very, very tasty, both in terms of taste and price. The staff was very friendly, even with children. The restaurant is also very modern, with beautiful decor and modern tableware. Overall, everything was very good; I can only recommend it.

All the dishes are top-notch! The bread that accompanies the soups is fresh and delicious. Every type of meat is cooked to perfection – exactly as you'd imagine. Absolutely recommended!

Unfortunately, the visit was disappointing. The service was very slow; we waited a long time before being served. The air conditioning didn't work and dripped onto the floor, making the stay unpleasant in warm weather. The cleanliness, especially around the windows, could also be significantly improved.

We visited the shop thanks to an advertisement on TikTok. The Yayla wheat soup tasted very bland, and the wheat wasn't quite firm. The price of €8 per bowl is very high. The chicken skewer plate was very dry, either because it was grilled for too long or not marinated properly. The parking situation on site is not great. There's no need to pay another visit.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommended! We visited Bizim Çorbacı Deluxe for the first time today – and it was truly fantastic! The food was incredibly delicious, and above all, you can tell right away that great importance is placed on hygiene and freshness here. Even the rice smelled pleasant and fresh – definitely thoroughly washed and prepared with great care. My Adana was very fresh, perfectly seasoned, and simply delicious. The doner kebab was also fantastic – the meat was tender, juicy, and had a really good flavor. You can immediately taste the quality of the work here. The entire restaurant was spotlessly clean, from the dining room to the food itself. The atmosphere is pleasant and inviting. I would especially like to highlight the staff: everyone was very friendly, attentive, and came to us several times to make sure everything was perfect. That was real service with heart! A place we would love to return to. Big praise to the entire team! 🌟

Disgusting food for the third time, diarrhea NEVER AGAIN

Sometimes they forget orders, the service is poor, I'm sitting and waiting right now, the menu hasn't arrived for 20 minutes 💔

Great food Great service Great Turkish restaurant

The best döner I have ever eaten in Germany. In terms of taste, it is a well-prepared döner that rivals the best döner restaurants in Istanbul, the oil is on point, the meat is not dry and the meat is cooked by keeping the juices. It is surprising that they have achieved such a good fat ratio in the meat with 100% beef, without using lamb. My advice to those who come is to order a portion döner to taste the meat. The treats that come, the flavor of the open ayran, everything shows the importance the place gives to details. I recommend it to everyone.

A very nice restaurant with lots of delicious food! Great!

Very tasty Turkish food, plenty of space, friendly service and a special area for families.

At first we went as just two men, a covered lady was working as a waitress and welcomed us very nicely. But then another woman who we thought was in charge came and her attitude was completely different. She gave a harsh order to the waiter saying “take these away from here” and we heard it clearly. They had seated us in the family section but then she started talking rudely and disrespectfully. This was the first time I had seen such an understanding of tradesmen. We had just said let’s have some soup on the way, but we had to leave without tasting our soup. Finally, she said “no problem, you can go” and practically dismissed us. It is really sad that such a business treats its customers this way.

I have visited many Turkish restaurants. From my own experience I know that there are good Turkish restaurants in Germany. But this will definitely be my favorite 👌. Wow! What a warm welcome I received and fast service too. The food was fantastic! So much choice with soups and honestly I have not seen that in the Netherlands yet, 'Correct me if I am wrong'. The meat was nice and tender and it is really Yaprak Doner 👌. Nice and tasty, as it should be. Really a top restaurant! If I lived nearby, I would definitely be here every week 🫡.

I sincerely say that everything we tried was perfect. We ordered doner, beyti, iskembe soup and kellepaca and their taste was unique. A business that cares about the friendliness of the waiters. You can go there even for the friendly conversation of the gentleman at the cash register :)

I've been a regular customer at Bizim Corbacı for a long time and particularly appreciate the very high quality of the doner meat – juicy, tasty, and always fresh. The team is friendly, the atmosphere pleasant, and I enjoy coming here with my family. What I've noticed more often recently, however, is that the ingredients in the doner kebab are unfortunately inconsistent. I regularly order doner kebabs with just onions, but today – as has often been the case – the ratio was unbalanced. A lot of onions, but hardly any meat. It felt more like I was chewing onion doner with a meaty flavor. I've also noticed significant variations in the amount of meat among other guests – sometimes the meat oozes out, sometimes there's hardly any in it. I strongly recommend consistent portioning, e.g., by weighing the meat, so that every guest receives fair and consistent quality. And please don't add extra onions to save on meat – that's noticeable! I hope this feedback will be taken seriously and improvements will be made in the future. As soon as I see a clear improvement, I will be happy to update my rating to 5 stars.

The doner is legendary!! The only real doner meat I have ever seen in Germany. The only place I can definitely recommend to those who want to eat real Turkish doner. The location is just awful. Parking is also a bit difficult.

The doner meat is of very high quality, almost reminiscent of a good steak. The Adana Dürüm is also highly recommended, and the side dishes were also good. The staff is attentive and friendly, and the manager isn't above having a quick chat with customers. You feel truly welcome. The ambiance is also great, though it's not exactly in the nicest part of Gelsenkirchen.

Steak kebab tastes good Absolute no go having my first review deleted

Positive: - With one of the highest quality kebabs in the Ruhr area - fast and attentive service Negative: - the neighborhood

Everything was great, thank you

Herzamanki gibi yaprak döneriniz 10 numara 5 yildiz okadar lezzetli ki anlatamam. As always a 12/10 this Yaprak kebab is out of this world you definitely have to try it!!

This place is a gem in disguise 🥸 the food is so good that you will eat the plate as well. Loved it it's cheap and great

Very tasty kebab and super friendly staff

Great authentic Turkish restaurant!

Highly recommended. The breakfast buffet was great and the price was great.

Breakfast buffet cheap and generally everything delicious, very friendly service 👍😋 generally 😋 very tasty 🤤

It was my first time in this location. The ambience is quite neatly decorated. However, the location is inconvenient. Parking spaces are rather difficult to find. I had ordered a kebab plate. Turkish-style layered meat. But I wasn't that impressed because the meat was sliced ​​very thickly and wasn't fried properly. Apparently it was because the location was very busy and the meat had to be constantly cut. I'm sure that on quieter days the kebab will be sliced ​​thin. We also had to wait almost 45 minutes for the kebab. Unfortunately, this results in a point deduction.

We ordered a doner plate. Very, very tasty, like from Turkey. Portion very good, neither small nor large. Can highly recommend it with a clear conscience. Toilet area very hygienic. 5 stars not enough. We come from Berlin and will definitely come here again

It's always fresh and delicious.

I have never eaten this kind of doner in Turkey. Very nice service

5 stars are actually not enough! I've been there four times now - and three times just for the kebab. Incredibly delicious! The meat is super juicy, tender and more than generously portioned. On my last visit I tried the Beyti – an absolute taste explosion! I ate it for two days and even cold it was still a highlight. Actually, I rarely recommend anything in Gelsenkirchen because the culinary side tends to go downhill. But I would definitely make the journey again at any time. The service? Top! Super friendly, attentive and quick. And to be honest: it's almost unbelievable that a shop like this is actually in Gelsenkirchen. Every time I think to myself: Am I really still here – or already in Istanbul? For me it's clear: the Turkish pearl of the city! Oh yes, by the way - today we're going there again 😂

So I'm thrilled, wonderfully delicious Juicy kebab meat doesn't smell like the typical meat smell🫥 so it's nicely seasoned

Very delicious doner kebab and lahmacun. Very delicious in appetizers

Service is a little slow. We waited approximately 20-30 minutes. I can't say the appetizers are very good. Even though we went at 19:00, there was no döner left. If you are going to eat döner, you should go before 19:00. We ordered mixed grill out of necessity. It was enough for 5 people and we were all full. Even though our islands were forgotten and came after we were full, we couldn't eat much of them, they were really filling. The price is normal compared to the market.

Was here for the first time today and I'm really impressed. The food is amazing and leaves nothing to be desired and above all the unique taste like in Turkey 🥰🥰🥰 The staff very friendly and accommodating I will definitely come back Highly recommended 👍👍👍

Highly recommended, open buffet for breakfast. Courteous staff, helpful and friendly. From 12 o'clock onwards it's a normal restaurant, very pleasant. I was VERY satisfied. To recommend 110% Kind regards, Kankal Cihan

A very bad restaurant just terrible real rip off not recommended

Real meat and no rotisserie mince. That alone should give it 5 points, but the warm bread and the mezze to eat are simply delicious. And the bread for the kebab is simple like in Turkey. Frothy Ayran!!!! Simply delicious. But it could use a little more salt. If I could I would give it 8 points. It's abnormally delicious here. We had işkembe (a tripe soup. even if it's not as good as my own 👀 it's very close to what you find in Turkey!!) The ONLY thing I complain about is the price of the soup. The soups are almost as expensive as a kebab? But that's why there are no points deducted because the kebab for €7.50 is simply of great quality. For the price you can only get minced kebab skewers. Believe me, you can even eat your kebab here with just onions and tomatoes without any sauce. Very very tasty. We had: Doner kebab in bread Doner plate Ayran (open with foam) Işkembe All in all just great.

The grill plates are amazing! Keep it up 💪🏻

A very well organized and friendly team. The dishes were tasty due to good preparation and possibly high-quality ingredients. Price and performance definitely true. I can only recommend the restaurant. Will visit again next time I'm in Gelsenkirchen.

The doner meat tastes incredible. Grill plates, on the other hand, are just average.

Doner like in Türkiye 10 out of 10 Price performance is also right. The meat tastes really good and doesn't have a lot of spices

I was very satisfied with the visit. The service was super friendly and attentive. I can particularly recommend the meat soups – really tasty and filling! I tried the İşkembe soup, it only cost €7 and tasted great! The best thing: The shop is open 24 hours - perfect if you get hungry sometimes late. I'll definitely be back!

Unfortunately, it's not what it looks like, I didn't like it at all. The soups were too cold and the pita had no flavor. I hope they fix it.

Very good The breakfast was great

The kebab is highly recommended

It has very delicious soup and doner kebabs.

A decent restaurant with delicious food that will fill you up. Of course there are other restaurants that beat this one, but the value for money is unbeatable here. Good to mediocre prices and there is something for everyone here.

Really quality? And very delicious

The best kebab meat I've ever eaten.

Simply great! The food was incredibly delicious – fresh, perfectly seasoned and prepared with a lot of love. The staff was super friendly, attentive and created a pleasant atmosphere. The cleanliness and hygiene in the restaurant were also impeccable. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be back!

Best kebab and iskender in NRW.

A complete disaster, I can't recommend it at all! Better to drive 40 km further and eat at another restaurant.

The people were very nice. The food was perfect you can eat meat! The look, well you forget you're in Gelsenkirchen ;)

It's beautiful and the food is the best there. Service is terrific.

The best steak kebab in all of Gelsenkirchen. If it were a little juicier you could eat it without sauce. The store is large and the employees are friendly. €7.50 is also a good price.

Delicious food, but the environment leaves a lot to be desired First of all the positive: The food was really very good! The kebab in particular was sensational - something completely different than the typical standard kebab. It was really pure meat, without that usual pressed together minced meat. Simply very tasty! The pide with minced meat was also really good – fresh, crispy and tasted great. In general, the food seemed fresh and appetizing. When it comes to taste, a clear recommendation! Now to the negative: The parking situation is a disaster. It is very difficult to find a parking space nearby. That would be manageable, but the environment around the restaurant is simply not inviting. Garbage cans full of stuff everywhere, trash on the streets - unfortunately that doesn't seem appetizing. Of course the restaurant itself can't do anything about it, but it spoils the overall impression. Conclusion: The food is absolutely top and definitely worth recommending! If you don't let the unsightly surroundings put you off, you can get high-quality Turkish cuisine here that really stands out from the crowd.

I just got myself a grill plate. Opened it at home and it was a great surprise! Juicy meat, very seasoned. Very tasty salad and for the price, thumbs up!!! Great restaurant - great service - recommend 👍

Hello, I was with my family because the waiters were rude and it was normal to eat, but at home I had endless stomach pains

Super recommended, food was top notch, service was very good, you can always go to your request. Ambience super pleasant. At this point I would also like to thank the head waiter Kenan, who always recommends the best.

Everything is perfect, I will recommend it to all my friends.

Yes. A “must have” in Gelsenkirchen. The food is very tasty. The staff is very attentive and friendly...

This time it was a catastrophic kebab, you probably thought I knew Nicki, the kebab wasn't even cooked properly

Ordered a grill plate + a chicken skewer Paid €40 (we were charged for 1 grill plate and 1 square plate) plus we were allowed to eat in the dark because of a power outage and the ventilation didn't work and we smelled completely of smoke. First and last time!!!

Very tasty, I can only recommend

I wanted a kebab at 11 p.m. and there wasn't even any meat left on the skewer!? What is this store open 24/7 for?

I was there with my boyfriend and didn't feel welcome at all. I understand that other cultures have different customs, but I was almost completely ignored, we weren't allowed to sit in a room because of me, I wasn't even asked what I wanted to eat, instead my friend was asked about my order. You weren't treated with respect and felt like a second-class citizen. The food was very good, you can't complain at all, but as a woman I wouldn't want to come back again, unfortunately.

The food is amazing, soups, doner kebabs are excellent, they are the best meals I have eaten in Germany, the waiters may forget about you depending on how busy they are.

If I could I wouldn't give a star. The waiter was extremely disrespectful and insulting. The other waiters couldn't calm him down. The cutlery was dirty and the soup arrived half spilled. After we pointed this out to the waiter, he became disrespectful and abusive. No recommendation.

10 out of 10 for the attention and interest of the employees, the taste of the food, we ate the meat doner service, it was great 👍👍

Very good breakfast buffet + delicious main dishes. Also suitable for vegetarians.

⭐☆☆☆☆ – Never again! An absolute failure! I was really hoping to enjoy a good meal here, but instead it was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've ever had. From ordering to payment a complete disappointment! Order & Communication – Unacceptable We ordered two grill plates without a side dish, but a side dish was still served. That alone wouldn't have been so bad, but we thought it was a shame to have to throw away food unnecessarily. The waiter took the order, but a short time later he was chatting in Turkish with another employee (probably the manager or boss) right next to us. What was striking was that the word “Adana” was mentioned. It was questionable why this discussion was being held right next to us - and why they weren't talking to us openly. As it turned out, there was no more Adana, but instead of just telling us, they discussed behind our backs whether they should bring us the dish anyway or tell us. In the end we were simply served the plates without anyone mentioning the problem beforehand. Food – an absolute disgrace When the plates came, the next surprise: no Adana, no kebab meat, no kofta - everything that would have been part of the order was missing! When asked, all I got was a shrugging “I’m sorry Abi, but Adana no longer exists.” We put a piece of chicken on it for you.” The so-called “chicken piece” was a measly quarter of a chicken leg. In addition, the meat was of inferior quality: • Chicken pieces totally dry • Lamb pieces tough and also dry • The chop is burnt and bitter For what we got, the price was an absolute disgrace. Around €25 per person for a few pieces of chicken, a few dry pieces of lamb and a burnt chop is completely excessive - especially for the surroundings and the other standard. Service & Payment – ​​Disrespectful and disgraceful The next shock came at the checkout: We still had to pay the full price! When I pointed out that our order wasn't delivered correctly, the response was: "The colleague knew about it." – As if that was an excuse?! I made it clear that the full amount could not be charged if what was ordered was not served. All I got was an indifferent “I can’t help it.” said - and the manager/boss stood next to it again and remained embarrassingly silent. The price was not reduced despite the incorrect order! The fact that as a guest you have to justify an obvious problem is a complete disgrace. Discomfort from start to finish From the start we felt unwelcome and watched. Despite the almost empty shop, we were not allowed to choose a free table, and throughout our stay we were viewed with suspicion by other guests in the area - almost as if they wanted to signal to us that we were not welcome or that they were looking for stress. Such an atmosphere makes a dining experience impossible. Conclusion: Never again! I have rarely experienced a restaurant that treats its guests so disrespectfully. Open and honest communication would have been the minimum, but instead we were deceived, fobbed off with substandard food and then ripped off. That was my first and last visit here! Anyone who values ​​fair service, good quality and a pleasant ambience should give this restaurant a wide berth! PS: One star is too much, but I'm still forced to give it. I also noticed that several other people who had similar negative experiences and described them in their reviews were also deleted. It seems as if the operator specifically reports critical reviews in order to artificially improve its rating profile.

It was definitely better in the past, it was renovated a little, but the service in particular was not recommended

It's expensive compared to other ocak bases (calculate at least €20 per person) but the portions are good. Point deduction for cold bread and, strangely enough, no iskender was served because supposedly there was no kebab meat left even though the kebab skewer still had more than half the meat. It is also inconvenient that for such a large restaurant there is only one shared toilet in the middle of the hallway. There's a queue there. It didn't pick me up.

We came from a long way with a friend, so we could eat doner at 18:00. When we walked in the door at 18:00 in the evening, they had large doners, then when we sat down, we asked for 2 doner kebabs and they said we had no doner left. I guess they passed us by because we only wanted a bread break, but it is not normal for a shop that is open 24 hours a day to behave like this. So we got up and left. I will not recommend you to anyone..no go..nicht zum weiterempfehlen..

We came from another city specifically to eat kebab here with colleagues. We were there at 6 p.m. Even though there was a lot of kebab on the skewer when we entered the restaurant, they told us that there was no more kebab and that there was apparently not enough. What I don't understand about a restaurant that is open 24 hours. We think it was just because we wanted to eat Dönnertaschen that we were told not to recommend it.

Looks very nice, I live next door. People always greet me very nicely. I've never eaten there

I have to say the kebab is really very tasty, but the biggest problem, which in my opinion is not possible, is that as soon as new customers arrive, they are immediately told that the kebab takes over an hour... the reason is also understandable in my opinion, why do they use a skewer in such a large shop that can fit around 100 people? Even small 5 square meter snack bars usually have 2 kebab skewers... there was also no good ventilation, everything inside was full of smoke.

That was one of the best kebabs of my life. Highest quality meat with mild seasoning. You rarely, if ever, find something like this. The grill plate was also perfect. Top seasoned top quality meat

There's rubbish everywhere outside, a little better inside but still my first and unfortunately last time.

“The absolute horror – worst restaurant ever!” I can't believe how disastrous the visit to Bizim Corbaci Deluxe was! My salad came out wrong twice - and when I finally got my 16 euro salad, I thought I was going crazy! What I had on my plate was a joke! A few leaves of green lettuce, cucumbers and four tiny, ridiculous chicken cubes halved. Not more! For 16 euros I expect at least a reasonable portion and not some absolute outrageous package. That was not only disappointing, but also simply an impertinence. The salad was more of a joke than a dish, and for the price you just feel ripped off. The service was just as terrible - no apology, no accommodation, just plain ignorance. I really wonder how a store like this can even exist. Never again! Anyone who eats here is throwing their money out the window. This restaurant is the worst thing that has ever happened to me. You can't even imagine how bad it really was. Stay away, really.

I ordered a kebab and firstly it came after 25 minutes of waiting and the worst thing was with a big screw in the kebab.. thank God I noticed it when I took a bite.. After my complaint they apologized, but I would have expected more.. perhaps that the remaining drinks would be on the house.. unfortunately very unprofessional and stingy.. Bizim corbaci took care of it for me

A restaurant with a cozy and warm atmosphere. The food was delicious, portions were generous and prices were reasonable. We had a lovely evening!

We bought the doner kebab, the same Türkiye, it was very nice.

All presentations are extremely delicious. Soups, stews and kebabs all have special flavours. I definitely recommend

This is the only address for those who know, miss and look for real Turkish doner kebabs. I really felt like I was in Turkey, it was wonderful.

I just discovered this place, they have a meat doner, it is amazing. I have been eating doner kebab in Europe for 10 years, especially in Germany. It tastes like this, it means I have never eaten real meat. At the end of the doner kebab, just like the bread, there is fat in this one. There was not a gram of fat in this one and it did not upset my stomach at all. I swear, well done to the chefs and the masters who process the meat so cleanly.

I was there for the first time today with my family and we all ordered a kebab plate. It's the best kebab I've ever eaten. Beforehand I had a soup called Paca Corba which was also very good. We will definitely come back.
