Can Ocakbasi Restaurant in Bielefeld

Wishes are ignored. Had three Adana, a mixed grill plate and two Lahmacun for the children. I told the waitress that the lahmacun should only be served with a green salad. Of course everything was slapped on top. When I asked him about it, he became very unfriendly and said what would happen if there was more salad on the plate. Update November 27, 2024 Unfortunately, after six years, we were back in this restaurant today. Shortly after we sat down, the waiter came to the table. I found his chewing gum very unpleasant. But maybe no one explained to him that that came across as very rude. We ordered a mixed grill plate, an Adana plate and a Beyti Kebab. We took 3 cokes to drink. The food came quickly but the waiter was, to put it politely, more than listless and unmotivated. The Adana skewers were still raw inside and so I asked the waiter to put the skewers on the grill again. The chef wasn't happy about that and got upset. He cut the skewers lengthwise and complained the whole time. We ate and I paid at the counter. €70.50 for the above-mentioned food and drinks. I didn't get a receipt and only realized on the way that I had been overcharged. The whole visit to this restaurant was a failure and I hope that in six years I won't make the mistake of eating here again.

Delicious food, great service, great prices! 🤝🏽🥰

Food was delicious as always, service was too eager, which is why small mistakes were made when ordering. You should take it easy when ordering... and not in such a hectic manner... Otherwise everything is fine

Fast, friendly service. Food was super tasty. Large portions, good value for money.

Delicious here. Cozy place. Unfortunately, the price on the card does not match the amount paid. But food is still good

We've been eating here for probably 20 years. Very tasty, quick. Staff friendly, atmosphere inviting. Thanks.

Very friendly staff because it tasted very good

I had to correct the review. I'm doing that again now. Conclusion of the visit: Poor meat quality with gristle in the lamb kebab, not good in taste. Unfriendly service and major problems understanding the German language.

It's hard to find good food that isn't cheap or poorly prepared. Everything I've eaten here so far has tasted good and that's why I think the price is justified.

Good products very well cooked. Delicious dishes. Real recommendation! Price-performance TOP!!

I ordered a lame kebab plate. The food was very dry, oversalted and therefore too expensive.

Top, no matter whether it's food or service!! Highly recommended

Very tasty food. Unfortunately, like many other restaurants, it has become expensive...

Pizza not fully baked and way too expensive for the size

It's delicious, but it could be better... and it would be better without alcohol.

Pizza not through. Ordered tuna, got salami. Just tastes like bad cheese and dough. Far too expensive €11.50 for a bad, raw pizza

The food was very tasty, we hardly had to wait and the staff was super friendly. What more could you want?

Went there with a friend 2 weeks ago and ate the platter for 2. I actually don't like lamb chops because they often taste very stale. But this was not the case with Can. This was by far the best lamb I have ever eaten. Quite apart from the amount you get there for €44, we really struggled towards the end. The waitresses are extremely nice, courteous and regularly ask if everything is okay. However, it doesn't make it annoying, quite the opposite. I can only recommend it and me and my friend will definitely come regularly. The atmosphere is really old school and very idyllic.

So I will never come here again! During my lunch break I wanted to have a chip and a drink with my girlfriend. The service was disastrous. We were not taken seriously and we felt completely ignored. The store was almost empty and we still had to wait a long time for this simple order. The mayonnaise had a pudding-like consistency, not good. But the bad thing was the pay. I paid around 20 euros for two fries and drinks. How can that be? We felt like we were being pulled away. So really not recommended. There are better places in Bielefeld.

A catastrophe, you go out to eat for two and the wife gets her food, you ask twice when the second meal will come and when it comes, instead of veal, there is chicken kebab that is cold on the grill plate and when you point it out and you are no longer hungry, you will be insulted and insulted... you should go to McDonald's if you two want to eat at the same time. SORRY, you don't need shops like that. Unfortunately there are no minus stars

Best Turk in Bielefeld...adana is mega

The food is very tasty, the starter could have been served a little more and more lovingly, but everything else was great.

Food and service very good! Be careful when paying with a certain waiter, dishes have been added several times that you didn't even order. The waiter is older and always there during the day, I would definitely check this out.

Vegan. Vegan Lahmacun Menu was great, great idea!

Green flies everywhere!!!! It's not clean here! The only good thing about this Turkish restaurant is the Turkish music! • Drinks warm • Fly everywhere • Vegetables served on the fries, correspondingly soggy fries • Salad without sauce Briefly about us: two adults and three children 2 apple spritzer 3Fanta 1 pide 3 small fries 2 times meat skewer 1 x grill plate = 91€ By the way, the service was super unpleasant 😕

Unfortunately it wasn't anything special. Salad without sauce and no lemon. Beyti Teller came after 4 minutes. No charcoal or grilled taste on the meat. Unfortunately not a highlight. Bread boring. You pay extra for rice. It's ok to fill up after partying, but don't go out to eat! The waitresses tried hard and were on their toes, but unfortunately that didn't work out. A pity. There are only restaurants with mediocre reviews around the train station, which is also the case here. Don't come back. Greetings77e Committee MC

A lahmacun with virtually no hack on it. It's a shame to offer something like that to the customer. Pure rip-off and just a money grab. That was the last time I entered this shed. You'll soon be able to eat your small, overpriced portions yourself

Can is now my go-to place and now that I've been able to try the platter for two people there, I'm a huge fan. The best Adana in the city, the chicken is very juicy, the salad is a little more exciting than anywhere else, perfect Side dishes. The only update I would like to see is the lavash bread and perhaps a grilled tomato on the plate. The atmosphere and the people are super pleasant and word has already gotten around how nice the waiters are.

We ordered an Adana and kebab plate. The plates looked nice, but the food didn't taste particularly good. The Adana meat had nothing to do with lamb. The fries were soggy wet and not seasoned. The bread, two different types, was simply cold. The music plays quite loudly in the place and it can get very hot on summer days. Apparently there is no air conditioning. The side windows still don't open, only the main entrance. The staff is nice. Both the Adana and the kebab plate failed to convince us.

Very friendly, attentive service, my mother's special requests were also taken into account. The portions are huge (I had an Iskender Kebab 8 hours ago, highly recommended, and I'm still full), the prices are more than fair. That's why I can't understand the recent negative reviews and would be happy to come back.

The Can Ocakbasi GmbH restaurant in Bielefeld completely convinced me and deserves a full 5 stars. As soon as you enter the restaurant you are greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere, supported by tasteful and modern furnishings. The menu at Can Ocakbasi is impressively diverse, offering a wide selection of authentic Turkish grill dishes. Every dish I tried was a true taste experience. Of particular note are the freshly grilled kebabs and delicious meze, all made from high quality ingredients. The meat dishes were perfectly seasoned and juicy, while the vegetarian options were just as satisfying. The service at Can Ocakbasi is outstanding. The staff are extremely friendly, attentive and always ready to accommodate guests' every need. The expert advice and recommendations made my visit even more enjoyable. I felt very well looked after throughout my entire stay. The price-performance ratio is also remarkable. Despite the high quality of the food and the excellent service, the prices are fair and reasonable. Overall, the Can Ocakbasi GmbH Restaurant is an outstanding address for all lovers of Turkish cuisine. Everything is just right here – from the quality of the food to the excellent service to the pleasant atmosphere. I will definitely come back!

The prices. People. 7€ for a large cola beer. Lamb kebab 10€. I was there last time. With Pyro it's not that expensive.

We ate doner kebab, it was terrible. The service was very slow. And the staff has no interest. Prices are too expensive

So charging €2.50 for a glass of black tea is usury. Before the renovation, I was with you several times a week, today was the last time. 2 soups and 2 cay 23€ is tough. The taste was also very diminished...

We took lamb to go. The meat was fresh, everything was very tasty and quickly enough, but they didn’t give us any cutlery.

I ate a doner plate there with my family 3 times! There was a hair in one of the plates, why don't you just wear a hood to prevent something like that. I had mayonnaise on my fries and it was hard and yellow. We also had rice that was old, hard and cold.

We ordered 2 dishes and a small fries (for our daughter) and were told extra ketchup in a bowl. I have to say that the waiter once again had nothing to write down for the order. For the main course, I was told 4 times to please put no sauce on the pide (boat) when it came out of the oven, and it was confirmed that it had been understood. A main course came and the second course and fries didn't. After about 5 minutes, the fries come with ketchup on the fries and the boat has the sauce on top (as mentioned before 4 times without sauce)... what can you say about that, we came as a family and wanted to eat together. Well unfortunately we will never come here again.

Service very friendly. Food expensive and not very tasty, fries soggy and unseasoned, lamb cold.

Great food, very great service and even though all the tables are occupied, the service doesn't show that they are stressed I can only recommend

The food was okay, but an employee threatened to beat someone who wanted to collect his smartphone because he thought the guest didn't want to pay, which he obviously did. The employee then asked for his smartphone as a deposit: the guest said it was €30, which he even put on the table when he left. He doesn't have a wallet with him and can only pay with Apple Pay and was then directly threatened with violence Unbelievable what this employee allows himself!

We have been here several times. Before and after renovation. Unfortunately the prices have risen and the menu has been reduced, but that also means that it is easier to calculate with less choice. The food is always delicious and is freshly grilled on site. Our favorites are the grill plate and the lamb skewer rolled in flatbread with salad and yogurt. Best lamb doner meat that is not stretched with minced lamb.

Very nice and nice shop, food was really tasty and can only be recommended

Unfortunately I have to agree with the other critical reviews. I've always enjoyed eating here before, but I think I'll have to look for a new place now. The menu has been drastically reduced and unfortunately many very tasty dishes have been omitted. The prices have increased significantly (we paid €75 for two adults and three children who only ate fries!) and the quality has declined. I asked the waiter if we could get a small plate of kebab meat for the children. No, it wasn't there. They don't do that here, if I did I would have to order a kebab plate for the children. The dishes all arrived at a different time so that my husband could eat while the children watched him. The kebab meat had a very strange consistency, not at all like what you're used to. In addition, the meat was hardly seasoned. No typical spices as we know them from Turkish cuisine. The new chairs and tables are very stylish, but I found the table height too high when sitting on the benches by the window (I'm 1.60cm). It's a shame, I really enjoyed eating here. That was our last visit to the restaurant.

Very good Adana skewer, tasted great 👍🏻

We were very loyal customers of this restaurant. It's a shame that there was such a negative aura after the renovation. I don't have to go into detail about how the operation was before and how it is now. I would accept the prices if the quality was right. It's a shame that you no longer have something that was good.

Unfortunately the food does not correspond to the price and quality. The Adana Kebab was still raw inside and the quality of the meat does not live up to the name.

As a long-time regular customer who has been regularly satisfied over the last 15 years, I unfortunately have to say that the quality of the restaurant has recently deteriorated. Despite a modern redesign of the interior, the food quality leaves a lot to be desired since the shop apparently has a new owner. It is unfortunate that the once delicious food and attentive service no longer meet the usual high standards.

Very good food and very nice staff

Price a little higher than elsewhere, unfortunately many dishes only offer lamb. Chicken skewer was delicious.

"Das Can Ocakbasi ist ein echtes Juwel! Der Chef ist äußerst freundlich und das Essen ist einfach hervorragend. Jeder Bissen war ein Fest für die Sinne. Die Atmosphäre ist gemütlich und das Personal sehr aufmerksam. Absolut empfehlenswert für alle Liebhaber der türkischen Küche. Ein Muss für Genießer!"

Super tasty, friendly service, large portions, everything fits in the store

Tastes very tasty... I've always enjoyed coming here... Prices are absolutely no longer justified, kebab plate from just under €9 to €16.90 I am extremely shocked!!!!!! Unfortunately, our earnings will no longer be... Unfortunately there was no more kebab plate with chicken in 2024... What a real shame!!? Things that are very popular are taken off the menu... I will look for another Turkish restaurant in the future! Unfortunately, we were also DUBIOUSLY refused card payment, even though we noticed that it was possible at the other table..... 🤔🤔🤔😏😏😏

Mahmoud and Hakan provided really excellent service. I felt really comfortable in the environment and the new ambience and we had a really great evening thanks to them both!

👌🏻Delicious lamb with something on it Very good and tasty menus. Man can hardly eat it👌🏻 I have to say the portions are good and big enough I am a good eater 😅 The. Local. Is well located near the train station in the city.

Food was good and plentiful. The children's plates could be smaller. Service was quick and friendly. Minus point: there is only lamb and the prices are already high.

Was there a change of ownership here? I don't recognize this store anymore. The offer has changed a lot, for example no chicken kebab anymore, only lamb and unfortunately I wasn't met with the usual friendliness. Food wasn't as appetizing as before.

A culinary experience for the senses! Can Ocakbasi is a true gem for gourmets and connoisseurs! From the moment I entered the restaurant I was greeted by a warm and professional staff that made my visit special. The ambience is inviting and cozy, perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or family. Now to the food - simply amazing! Every dish I tried was a burst of flavors. From the delicious grilled meat dishes to the aromatic side dishes, every detail was perfect. The quality of the ingredients and the preparation leave nothing to be desired. I highly recommend Can Ocakbasi - a place where you can not only enjoy excellent food but also experience a first class atmosphere and service.

Super delicious food in a cozy atmosphere. Highly Recommended ! The quality of the food is excellent and everything tasted extremely delicious. When ordering, no special request goes unfulfilled, and the staff is incredibly attentive and nice, and you just feel comfortable. The furnishings are modern but cozy. I will definitely come back !

Really bad service, you have to beg for the waiters to come to you

If you order at 9:30 p.m. on a day when it's open until midnight, you'll be told at 10 p.m. that the oven will be turned off and you have to eat dessert while you're in the middle of the main course, so that the dessert ( Künefe) doesn't get cold. When ordering, there was no option to order the desired dish with one less ingredient and the prices stated on the menu were different than those on the receipt. Unfortunately I won't be visiting this restaurant again. Nevertheless, I would like to praise the food again. It has been delicious on every visit so far.

I always enjoy eating there. From the food to the conditions, everything was top notch

Delicious food, wonderful staff, a must try in Izmir. Try the liver shish!

Neither I nor my family liked the waiter's attitude at all, because he didn't grow up like that, that is, he was fed up with his work. What should I do and he chose to do it. The food was good but expensive. We have also visited other similar places and it was the same kind of food but financially acceptable. Plus there is a saying: Our client, our master😁

Food very bad, mercimek tasted old had a bad aftertaste. İskender tasted dry, the meat was like rubber with no taste and we paid €16.90 for this plate. Lahmacun was only served as dough without proper minced meat. PS: Drinks were good, the first and last time we were there.

Large beer now costs €7, Adana plate €18 Food itself is good, but there is no reason to go here as there are enough good Turkish restaurants in the area

Have often eaten there or picked up food, always very good and tasty. Generous portions, the Iskender is recommended, as is the lunch menu. Staff always friendly and quick. Family and child friendly.

It's a very nice place that has been renovated as an event venue. It is a very nice place where you can go with your family. The food is delicious. The meat is fresh and delicious. The staff are very friendly - good people. ☺️☺️

Unbelievable!! but GREAT Czech beer with great Turkish food, AWESOME, delicious, service was nice, the price was ok, I'll be back. Today from 1 to 10...🤔7...but anyway I'll be back.And....I was back after the renovation BRAWO!!!!STILL VERY TASTY 😋 again and again!!

They have such good apple juice

We ordered 1 meat soup, 3 Adana wraps and 2 Antep katmerli for dessert. Meat soup is what we expected. It wasn't like that. Adana wraps. It arrived very late and the cokes came with soup. The inside of the Adana wrap was almost undercooked. Also, the cucumbers inside were very visible and there were 2.3 of them. The taste of katmer was good. It's crispy on the outside. Intra. It had become dough. The ice cream on it was delicious and the waiter served it with a smile.

Unfortunately, the restaurant is not highly recommended. The food was okay, but if you pay about 40% more than in other similar restaurants and don't notice any significant improvement in taste or quality, then something is wrong. So the food was a little above standard. The plate size is quite small compared to others. The service is ok. Finally: the quality of the food does not justify such a price.

A classic Turkish restaurant with excellent food. In addition to the large range of Turkish dishes, there are also daily menus that change daily. The meat is of very good quality and deliciously prepared. The space for guests is generous.

Sehr gutes türkisches Essen ! Gerade neu renoviert!

Freundliche, kompetente Bedienung, Essen ausgezeichnet, gemütliches und nettes Ambiente. Bei unserem nächsten Besuch in Bielefeld essen wir bestimmt wieder hier.

Gerçekten hayatımda yediğim en kötü dönerdi hatta yemedik o kadar kötü kokuyordu ki üstelikte iki kişi 50 Euro ödedik asla deymez resmen ölü insan eti gibi kokuyordu

Die reinste Katastrophe. Habe gerade für 4 winzige Stückchen Hähnchen 8,90 € bezahlt (ohne Beilagen!) Geschmacklich allerdings ganz okay. Würde sehr gerne ein Foto hochladen 🤣🤦🏽

Immer alles top bis auf einige Kellner die so derbe respektlos sind das mir der Appetit vergangen ist und ich mein Essen leider nicht essen konnte.

essen ist ganz okay aber teuer unf lange wartezeiten sowohl beim bedtellen das anfordern der karte und sogar bei der rechnung

Mein letzter Besuch im Restaurant war enttäuschend im Vergleich zu früher. Das Essen war lauwarm, die Pommes kalt und ekelhaft. Die Speisekarte wurde drastisch gekürzt, was die Auswahl stark einschränkte. Es gab nur drei Pide-Sorten und keine Möglichkeit mehr, zwischen verschiedenen Fleischsorten zu wählen bei einem Teller. Wird in Zukunft nicht mehr besucht leider.

Ein sehr schöner laden. Sehr freundliches Personal und sehr guter Service. Das Essen ist dort echt gut. Die Auswahl und die Qualität stimmen auch. Gehe dort gerne hin 😀

Daran vorbei gelaufen und spontan rein gegangen. Ich war vor 7 Jahren das letzte mal hier. Das Essen ist wie damals unglaublich gut! Das Ambiente ist freundlich und kundenorientiert. Hier wird man satt!

Kann ich leider nicht weiter empfehlen

Das Essen ist sehr lecker und er Service ist auch sehr aufmerksam ich gehe gerne dort hin..

Can Ocakbasi ist ein Laden was ich sehr gerne besuche und dort sehr gerne Verzehren. Ein herzlichen Dank an kompletten Team

If you want to waste your money it's good place

Price wise a good place Turkish taste Staff I found people looking in a uncomfortable manner and not friendly staff I found staff rude Since we asked for tea and the staff answered is costly 🧐 Jesus We took the dish for 3 and 2 people it was good for 6 adults All was good A bit oily That is the reason I removed some starts ⭐️

5 kişi gittik. 3 adana ve 2 et döner sipariş ettik. Adana çok iyi değil ama güzeldi. Et döner ise hayatımda yediğim en berbat dönerdi. Aşırı derecede sinir olan et aynı zamanda bildiğin lastik gibiydi. Ve doğal olarak yiyemedik. Garsona söylediğimizde ise gayet normal karşıladı bunu.

LADIES & GENTLEMEN… Ich nutze die Sonntage gerne unter anderem dazu, um mir (lustige) Google Rezensionen durchzulesen, die von Menschen verfasst wurden, die in der Realität eh niemand ernst nimmt und an sich keinen Nutzen für die Gesellschaft darstellen, außer ihren Unmut über ihr jämmerliches Dasein anonym im Netz zu verbreiten - dieser kleine „Ausflug“ ins Reich der Zivilisierten, erweitert meinen Horizont ungemein! Ich möchte direkt lobend auf den Inhaber von Ocak başı zu sprechen kommen: Ich finde nämlich die Art, wie hier mit „Kritik“ umgegangen wird, äußerst authentisch und menschlich! Ich kann nämlich beim besten Willen nicht nachvollziehen, wie es einige Inhaber schaffen, sich bei Menschen fast schon reumütig zu entschuldigen, die sich im Ton DEUTLICH vergreifen… denn letztendlich macht der TON die Musik! Die meisten von uns verdienen Ihr Geld damit, indem Sie einer Tätigkeit nachgehen. Auf diese Weise sichern wir unser Überleben, unsere Existenz. Ich würde mir wünschen, dass wir gerade deshalb etwas umsichtiger werden, uns gegenseitig helfen, anstatt uns gegenseitig „in die Pfanne zu hauen“ - wobei „der Inhaber“ mit seiner Stellungnahme ja nicht wirklich jemanden „trifft“ oder „schadet“… er/sie muss sich ganz allein der öffentlichen Zensur stellen und ist uns somit schutzlos ausgeliefert! Und was lernen wir daraus? Jeder ist nicht nur für sich selbst verantwortlich, sondern auch für seine Mitmenschen. Äußert Eure Meinung… aber BITTE nicht auf zerstörerische/SELBSTzerstörerische Art 💞 In diesem Sinne: Viel Glück und alles Liebe Euch allen…!!!

Der Besuch hat mein Leben verändert

Wir sind neu in Bielefeld .Wir haben hier zum ersten Mal gegessen. Mit 4 Leuten. 3 von uns haben das Tagesbericht “ Bohnen mit Lamm “ gegessen. Mein Schwiegersohn ein Gericht mit Hähnchenschenkel. Wir waren mit allem sehr zufrieden und werden gerne wiederkommen.

Ich bin aus Frankfurt und ich muss sagen. Das Essen war sehr lecker! Ich freue mich, demnächst wieder dort zu essen! Preis, Service und Geschmack 1A

لم اكن اعلم ان المطعم يقدم المشروبات الكحولية لماكنت دخلت اليه بالاصل كيف تكتب حلال وتقدم المشروبات الكحولية كان هناك عفن في الخبز كما هو موضح بالصورة الأكل مقبول لكن غالي الثمن لكن ام اعد اذهب الى المطعم بسبب المشروبات الكحولية Das Essen ist okay aber auf Brot war Schemel sieht Mann das im Foto Wie Halal und bittet Alkohol das verstehe ich nicht Nie wieder
