City Grill in Essen

Simply delicious every time and no matter what dish!!!

This lunchtime with my work colleague Been there once. Not only was the food a 10 out of 10, but also the service was super nice and pretty 😄

Tried it out based on the good reviews and absolutely loved it! Super friendly staff and really delicious food! We'd love to come back :)

It was very tasty and friendly 👍

Good home cooking, large portions, fair prices, very nice staff, and a newly renovated dining room.

Best snack bar I know in Essen and the surrounding area. A trip there is always worth it.

Iconic snack bar with friendly staff and delicious dishes. The typical snack dishes as well as home cooking are offered. The schnitzels are particularly good and special requests, such as extra sauce, are catered for. Top 👍🏼

Super friendly!!! And totally delicious! Drove past it so often - if we had known that earlier :) we would love to come back!

Always the best chip shop in the south of Essen... Always my pleasure

Always delicious, always nice and friendly. Unfortunately, prices have risen sharply in recent years. But a visit is always worth it!

I've often ordered something to take away from there now. As always, the food was very tasty. Prices are decent but within reason. Food was ready very, very quickly. Super lovely team.

We had our food delivered for our wedding and it was perfect, everything was super nice

You can't expect more from a grill

Very tasty. Nice staff. Highly recommended.

Great currywurst as always. The other dishes also taste very tasty. I always enjoy going there.

Almost the best snack in town, Because without crème fraîche “the cook” would probably have been lost. Very special delicacy - there is even German "home cooking" here. Unfortunately, every one of these dishes contains this annoying crème fraîche. You should noodle the recipe developer with it. It would work without it and would even be much healthier. Very tasty currywurst and Greek dishes. Portions are decent; the service was top notch and even a comfortable seating area. EVERYTHING FINE !!! Except - as already mentioned... Maybe there will be some good feedback.

Three of us were there on Saturday and ordered Gyros Pita. The gyro was ok, but could have been seasoned better. What was irritating was the statement that there was only coleslaw, onions and tzatziki on it. Ah yes...You had to look for the tzatziki though, so it was very dry. The food wasn't brought to our table either, so I can't actually give any stars for the service. You also cashed in straight away, you could do the bend...at least you were full in the end. Next time I'd rather go Greek.

We regularly travel to Kupferdreh to the City Grill. My wife is a self-confessed gyros pita fan. My favorite is the Westphalian Schnitzel, but today I also tried a portion of gyros. Extremely delicious. The quality is right and the service staff is super friendly. We always enjoy coming to City Grill.

I was there often during my time at fadbk. A very good chip shop, but it has become quite expensive. The shish kebab is great, the gyros are also very good. The burgers are not my thing and the schnitzels only with ready-made sauce. Unfortunately, your clothes often smell like grease after you eat there. But everything happens quickly and friendly,

The food is delicious, obviously a little more expensive than elsewhere, but hey no one HAS to eat here😉

EVERYTHING IS GREAT, KEEP IT UP!!! GREAT NICE EMPLOYEES...

The price list for 2024 has already received a significant price increase compared to that of 2023!!! INFO: Unfortunately, no photos are uploaded here on Maps. Wanted to upload the two menus here! 😟 I was there again recently and after paying the bill for two people at the checkout I was left with just under €35. Mayo 1€ or a *hit* tzatziki 2€ is crazy. Various dishes according to the menu from April '23 to March '24 of 15%-35% price increase. It is and remains a better *chip shop/butcher grill*. I can't understand the prices with the best will in the world. There are *restaurants* here in Essen where you can eat better and have a better atmosphere for the same price. Sorry dear team, there's nothing you can do about it. Therefore only 1⭐

Everything is far too expensive. Regular fries with mayo and a drink €7. Holladiewaldfee.....

The food is really very tasty, you can't say that everything is always freshly prepared, the service is very friendly, you really can't say that, in my opinion, the prices are far too high and outrageous

As always, very, very tasty...nice staff and huge portions...price, performance top!

The neck steak was incredibly tender, the coleslaw and French fries were ok. The food is brought to you, you have to get drinks and clear up yourself. The place is a bit cramped, but not uncomfortable. If you have something to do in Kupferdreh, you can go there.

Tasty, but some plates now cost almost €16. Make yourself think at least twice about whether it's worth it.

Great shop, very good service and delicious dishes...😋😋😋

Top What can you say here... Always friendly Prices like before Food great! Best currywurst in whole

The food was super tasty Nice personel. The prices are good 👍 And we had to give back some food was too much.

The food was great, the restaurant was very cozy and we eat there regularly.

The best grill in Essen. Not cheap, but completely justified!

Hello, friends of currywurst, shashlik and the like. After a long search, we finally found a great snack. Great sauces that do NOT taste like Zero 8.50. Wonderful, seasoned and seasoned like before. Portion large. Meat and sausage excellent. French fries hot and tasty. If you want, you can enjoy outside. Wonderful!! I will continue to try out the menu here. The people are friendly and helpful. Please keep it up.

1cordon bleu doppelt Pommes 1jägerschnitzel Pommes normal 1 Getränk selber bestellt selber abgeholt bezahlt in Schlange stehen und Sitzplatz an Hauptstraße kupferdreh 32€ wie im Nobel Restaurant nur dass dass Schnitzel sehr dünn doppelt frittiert wie die Pommes, ich krieg grade würgereiz ! Nie mehr . Das cordon bleu war 1cm dick und gefüllt mit Minderwertigem Käse und Schinken

Yesterday I ordered half a chicken with fries mayo, an outrageous €11.70 for it and again the chicken was so dry that you could only eat half of it. The prices are already very steep and the quality has deteriorated a lot.

The food is delicious, the service is friendly and everything comes very quickly, whether on site or to take away. I almost fell over today when the total price for 3x gyro plates (one with fried potatoes, one without any side dish) came to €42.70. Dear people, this is a snack bar, not a restaurant. The inside ambience is a snack bar, the outside area is right on the main street of the Kupferdreh district (tasty exhaust fumes). Industrial lights and TFT displays have nothing to do with quality or ambience, they are more used for advertising and confusion. I'm starting to think it's excessive, but also at two other snack bars with other core offerings (döner kebabs) in Kupferdreh. All of them have seen price increases in recent months/years that go beyond inflation. You really have to think about whether it's still affordable to pick up/order something.

A cult snack for years. Great quality. Good portions. Price performance = top. Always my pleasure.

The best chip shop 👌🏼 super delicious food, all along the menu. The staff is always friendly 👍🏼 There are also places to sit, inside and outside. Unfortunately, you sit outside directly on a busy street. But the food makes up for it 😅 Very clear recommendation 👍🏻

I've been going there for about 40 years now and it's still great

The gyro plate was perfectly seasoned, juicy and fresh. Delicious side dishes and friendly atmosphere.

Very large selection. Taxi plate is recommended. It tastes super delicious and is also a large portion. The fries and mayo taste exceptionally good. I think you can recommend everything.

How could I not have known about this "chip shop" for so long... A must!!

The first address in the district when it comes to a delicious snack, I'll be happy to come back.

The contribution of Dr. Bartsch is now finally encouraging me to write a review of this “temple of pleasure”: From 2014 to 2019 I had a commuter apartment in Hattingen. I asked my roommates for a good Greek restaurant. “City Grill” was recommended to me. So I went there (it was summer around 25-30°C) and there was a line of people queuing up to buy something to eat at the City Grill. After a while of waiting, it was finally my turn and all I can say is that all the dishes make the palate feel like a cathedral. The employees are friendly, polite and customer-oriented! Even today I'm happy to drive the 130 km from Aachen to get a "taxi plate" or a "traditional pita" and I'm always happy to recommend the shop. Keep it up & kind regards from Aachen.

One of the best chip shop food. You could also give it 6 stars.

Years ago we found the City Grill in the French fries guide in the Ruhr area and were thrilled. We always like to come here - for a real "French fries and currywurst sandwich" - delicious. Every time we decide to go to the nearby ice cream parlor, but the portions here make us so full. We are already looking forward to the next time!

Simply delicious and nice staff and price performance top top top...you'll be full...

Expensive expensive expensive!!!

All dishes taste very good. Absolutely to suggest. The service is also TOP!!!

If fries and gyros, then only from that City Grill 🤩 Super friendly and quick service, prices reasonable. Insider tip: Gyros Pita Original 🤤😋

Very tasty dishes, especially the gyros with onions and tzatziki. Very friendly service!

Clean restaurant, very nice staff, very busy, super delicious food. Here it really tastes like mom's/grandma's. Great food with no frills.

Lots of really delicious dishes. I'm really into shish kebab. There's hardly any left anywhere anymore...

Tasty, but the prices have a restaurant character

Good quality has remained unchanged for years. The food is very tasty and the staff is very friendly. I've been coming here on and off for almost 30 years and have never been disappointed. It's worth a visit.

Tasty and reasonable service. A bit tight on site, but still sufficient.

Had dinner yesterday on February 22nd, 2024. The welcome was very warm and I was served very quickly and friendly. The food we ordered came very quickly and was extremely tasty. Yesterday I had a hot dog with fried onions as a starter, as it should be, and a currywurst with fries and mayo as my main course. Both were very tasty 😋. I come from Essen-Freisenbruch to the City Grill in Kupferdreh. The extra dishes are also very special. Yesterday I took pork knuckle, sauerkraut and mashed potatoes with me. I've never eaten anything that didn't taste good. This grill is highly recommended. I really like it there.

I occasionally go there from Bonn (really!) to meet up with old school friends from Essen. That alone should show that this long journey is worth it for me. Very friendly service, delicious currywurst, gyros and fries, clean atmosphere and reasonable prices. Taxi plate highly recommended. For me the best snack bar in my hometown - and I know many!

This is a really great place. I've been eating here for 40 years. A “French fry shop” made from the pot after my own heart. Like a rock in the surf! At a time when a home-style chip shop has to give way to a kebab shop. There is great, tasty food here at normal prices. Currywurst, sauerbraten, schnitzel, kale etc. - normal prices, tasty and friendly served, just the way I like it, mega!!!! Thank you for all your hard work over the years.😉👍

I've probably known Nieding for 50 years, still very well.

The food is very good Price performance excellent

A symphony of taste buds... Today for lunch I had dinner there with my wife... My better half had the beef liver with braised onions, puree and applesauce 🤩😋 the plate was prepared with love (as we all know, your eyes eat with you), and the portion was also very generous 👍 Everything was super fresh and delicious. My humble self had the classic Assi plate (French Currywurst Mayo), this was also sensational and you could taste that it was fresh from the butcher. I can only recommend it to everyone. The ladies/service was phenomenal 👍👏👏 We have never been greeted and served so friendly. I would give 10 stars ⭐️!!!

Ate an onion sausage today and a small... Drank a bottle of cola. At the checkout I was very surprised at the price. 9.10 euros were very high. The friendly staff completely agreed with my comment about this. If I had also ordered fries, the amount would have been well over 11 euros. That's simply too high.

Again and again and well there, and 👍 it has been for years.

My girlfriend brought me half a chicken yesterday, which should be a highlight for me since I'm currently in the hospital. But quite apart from the price of 7.60 €, which I find very expensive, it didn't taste good in the least - the name Gummi Adler came out big again. That really made me miserable at first. I'm really holding back 🤬 other things taste good too. But the rubber eagle didn't work at all. One star just for half the chicken😖

Delicious food, friendly service, tastefully renovated in the dining area.

The noodles tasted a little watery.

Top quality food and service. Really recommended.

Bin seit einigen Jahren immer mal Gast. Aber heute absolut der Hammer 2 mal pommes. 2 mal Currywurst...zusammen 14.70.euro .Wollt ihr mich verarschen ????

Best quality of food and the people are always super friendly. Top address!

Very tasty food and friendly staff 😊

Mega leckeres Essen. Je nach Uhrzeit findet man gut einen Sitzplatz. Aber man kann natürlich auch alles zum Mitnehmen bestellen.

Riesige Karte,auch deftige Speisen.Zügige Bedienung und sehr Freundlich.Parkmöglichkeit eher in der Umgebung.

Perfekter Imbiss! Super Essen und tolles Ambiente! Mega nettes Personal! Komme immer gerne wieder hier hin. 👍🙂

Meine Mann hatte die Leber mit Pommes und ich den Leberkäs mit Bratkartoffeln und Spiegelei. Mein Mann war von der Leber begeistert. Saftig mit gutem Röstaroma. Meine Bratkartoffeln waren knusprig und sehr lecker, genauso der Leberkäs mit Spiegelei. Die Portionen sind auch ordentlich. Hier bekommt man noch was für sein Geld. Auch die Lokalität ist sehr schön gestaltet. Sehr empfehlenswert!

Toll, dass es auch "Hausmannskost" wie Sauerbraten mit Püree gibt. Besser geht nicht!

Wir bestellen hier häufig Gyros und Currywurst.Bisher war immer alles super. Seit einiger Zeit hat die Qualität vom Gyros extrem nachgelassen. Zähes Fleisch und teilweise sehr fettig. Bitte wieder verbessern!

Schnitzel Hawaii war leider sehr trocken. Gastraum eng und sehr voll.

Komme hier immer gern vorbei, ob zum mitnehmen oder um Vorort essen. Große Auswahl und gute Preise. Kann man absolut weiter empfehlen

Super Essen. Sind seit über 40 Jahren zufriedene Kunden.

Sehr gutes, einfaches und leckeres Essen.

Alle sehr freundlich. Essen ist einfach super.

Hier wird man sehr schnell, sehr satt. Eine gute Adresse für Notfälle mit hungrigen Kindern. Der Service ist hier IMMER BESONDERS freundlich. Die Gyros Pita original ist ein Geheimtipp und sollte frisch vor Ort verzehrt werden. So gut macht die niemand im Umkreis! Vielen lieben Dank!

Das Essen ist lecker und die Portionen sind riesig. Das Personal war bisher immer freundlich und das Ambiente ist schlicht aber sehr sauber.

Sehr leckeres und vielfältiges Essen. Drinnen ist es bei schlechten Wetter sehr warm und bei Hitzewetter schön kühl. Kann den Taxiteller, das halbe Hähnchen und den Bauernsalat empfehlen.

Wir wurden freundlich bedient. Das Essen war typisch "Pommesbude" lecker. Wir waren zufrieden!

Der City Grill ist immer wieder einen Besuch wert! Die Currywurst mit Pommes ist mein persönlicher Favorit. Aber auch alle anderen Speisen, die ich bisher gegessen habe, waren super lecker und qualitativ sehr hochwertig. Die Mitarbeiter sind immer freundlich und das Essen ist schnell zubereitet. 5 Sterne sind eigentlich noch zu wenig… :)

Essen top, Bedienung leider nur drinnen, aber draußen Benachrichtigung per Pieper.

Nette Pommesbude und das seit Jahren. Schmeckt gut und sie bieten eine gute Hausmannskost an

Super Auswahl an Gerichten, Qualität und Geschmack klasse. Und so schnell fertig! Dann noch faire Preise und nette Mitarbeiter. Mehr kann man nicht verlangen.

Sehr lecker. Schöner Laden. Große Auswahl an Speisen

Die Pommmes labbrig, kalt und ungesalzen. Das Sauerkraut mit Speck durchzogen (hatte vorher gefragt ob es das sei und die Antwort war nein) und schmeckte nach nullkommagarnix. Mein Bekannter meinte, dass auch das Gyros geschmacklos und mit Fettklumpen durchzogen war. Die Krönung: das schlechteste Tzatziki ever. Wartezeit 45 Minuten . Fantasiepreise, die nix mit der Karte zu tun hatten. Fazit: Totalausfall.

Sehr lecker, sehr freundlich...super Preis-Leistung!!!

25.9.23 Taxiteller, Schaschlik Pommes, Kassler Sauerkraut Kartoffelbrei. Nicht günstig....aber unser Essen war sehr gut.

Super Essen, angemessene Preise. Pommes mit Schaschlick sind sehr zu empfehlen

Preis-Leistung für heutige Zeiten sehr gut. Große Portionen. Salate sind immer frisch, Dressing gut. Freundliches Personal. Kaum Wartezeit. Viele Tische für einen Grill-Imbis. Immer wieder gerne.

Sehr leckeres Essen und das Personal ist sehr freundlich.

Einfach der beste City Grill in Kupferdreh den es gibt, kann ich wirklich nur empfehlen Preise sind tip top in Ordnung Essen ist wirklich super Bedienungen sind alle super lieb und nett

Egal welches Essen,es schmeckt alles hervorragend!!! Und trotz Ansturm geht's immer Hotti Flotti.

Sehr gutes und altbewährtes Schnellrestaurant, wie man es sich im Ruhrpott wünscht. Currywurst, Schnitzel, Gyros, Salate, alles top und schnell zubereitet. Sehr empfehlenswert...
