Emessa Cafe & Restaurant in Köln

Very good food, large buffet, top price. In my opinion it is the best in all of Germany

Mashallah, the restaurant has become amazing after the staff and owner of the restaurant changed, everything has become amazing. Good luck.

I'm crazy about eating and even dealing ❤️

The food is amazing and the place and atmosphere are very nice. I advise you to come

The food tasted very tasty Nice staff and nice atmosphere

One of the best restaurants we have ever been to, I swear I am crazy about the food, wow, the service, and everything is good. Those who work for me are nothing better than them.

The food is very amazing and really good and the service is amazing. Everything was delicious and the seating was very nice and family friendly. The first time in Germany I ate such good food and the service was excellent. I give it all 10/10.

One word is enough to give this place it’s value, PERFECT !!!!

Great food. You can sit outside very well.

The food was amazing and the taste was as expected. Perfect conditions, the staff are very friendly, recommended for people who want delicious food at a reasonable price.

The reception service is excellent and the food is number one, I swear to God, everything Ok, good luck and for the best, God willing

The food was delicious and of the highest quality. The service was first class, quick and friendly

The food was good, the service was good, and the setting was nice and comfortable. I recommend the restaurant

The service was very nice and the preparation was nice and clean

The kebab meat was very cold and the bread was hard as a rock. I wanted to get a plate of kebab after the kebab was poorly prepared and was then asked if I was disabled. It was the last visit for me and I don't recommend it to my circle of friends

It's true that they were a little cramped and we couldn't sit outside because of the pressure, but I swear they were treated no better, especially from Buddy, and the food was excellent...

It was really great food and treatment, God willing

The food is very good and the meat is tender like pistachios.

The food is normal, I swear. The fish we returned was as rancid as it was. Fried fish fillet. The service is very nice, but there is a lot of oil in it. Frankly, I did not like the experience, but I agree because they are amazing.

He does not respect reservations and appointments and is not organized at all.

No, definitely not. Didn't eat there and left again.

The restaurant has a nice atmosphere, but we ordered food and it is clear that they have reduced the amount of chicken, meat and food. This is bad. The meals did not satisfy us.

Had to wait in line for a very long time even though we had made a reservation, very unfortunate, we will try the food!

Best vibes in cologne Best food Best shisha

Super and delicious as always really delicious

Great food, best to park opposite on the market square

The best restaurant or the best food Greetings from Sweden ✌🏻

Super satisfied!! Clean kitchen, friendly staff and top quality. Very accommodating and attentive. All in all excellent. The location is great. I always like to come!

The service is great and the food is clean and delicious. I came during Ramadan and honestly the food buffet is very wonderful, but I wish the arrangement of the chairs was better than this because the places were very narrow and it was difficult for someone to get up and go out.

Very tasty, very nice Atomsphere is like restaurant cafes in the Middle East.

This Super Restaurant is full of food and drinks that are free to eat!! A very respectable restaurant. The dealings were very excellent. Abu Al-Reem Rami did not fall short and the food was wonderful. It will be repeated!!

Amazing cafe, service and everything is excellent

A wonderful atmosphere and incredibly friendly staff! The service is excellent and you immediately feel at home. A place that I always enjoy visiting – absolutely recommended!”

Very tight. Not good management.. don't go there anymore.

You don't deserve a single star. Unfortunately, we paid five people and left hungry, for God's sake

Never again Ramadan buffet not edible Sorry, I can't report what I saw.

Good food, excellent service and a Ramadan atmosphere

A wonderful place, indescribable service and amazing food

The food is very good and the atmosphere is nice

Great for families with lively children.

The restaurant is very small, so I missed some, the prices are very expensive, and there is nothing to eat. By God, it is forbidden for anyone to go to such restaurants and pay such exaggerated amounts. Eating the buffets is bad.

The food, treatment and buffet are the best, and the generosity, God willing, is very excellent, encouraging and abundant

Very nice shop, service is great, very nice. Rami is my personal favorite waiter, very friendly

Rami best service restaurant everything possible delicious shisha's also at its best

The experience promises that people's reputation is superior, and the food is second to none. I cannot describe it more than that. I wish you success always, and thanks to all the employees. In fact, the meal restaurant was an open table for Ramadan breakfast, with a full buffet of ancient Syrian food.

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ (0 stars would be better if possible) Unfortunately, this Iftar buffet was a complete disappointment. When we arrived we had to wait in line for almost an hour just to get to the buffet. When we finally got there, a lot of things were already empty and weren't replenished in a timely manner. The organization was catastrophic - far too tight, so you were constantly tripping over other people. Additionally, shisha was smoked right next to us, which made the food and atmosphere even more unpleasant. After a long day of fasting, one expects a relaxed and well-organized iftar, but here the opposite was the case. Absolutely not recommended!

Seriously the worst experience I have ever had in a restaurant! It is impossible to celebrate it

The food is delicious and the sitting is sweet

First of all, if the world was not Ramadan, I would say things that do not suit me My experience is that we reached out to them and told them, “We will come.” They said, “Go ahead.” We arrived half an hour after breakfast. We arrived at the door. We said there was a table with people on it. You could sit there for ten minutes until another table opened. Of course, they told us that the table was large after we packed a plate so that we could break our breakfast into two pieces of yoghurt, two pieces of shawarma, and a spoonful of rice. Of course, the entire place is attached to a few tables, and no one knows who is with whom I was surprised that the table was for four people in the first place, and I was for three people The important thing is that we said let us appreciate the situation and sit down to eat and walk We couldn't because even the people we sat next to did not accept the situation. We got up to walk and told them we want to walk. What happened to us? He said you have to pay 60 euros, but since you didn't eat anything they paid only 50. This is my last and failed experience, and thank God it was the first because I took an hour or more to reach this place. Of course, it is not the insult that a person feels when he is forced to sit in such a place Until the food is renewed, you eat, and then you and your luck remain, or you don't catch up Even the organization is zero People are missing out on a Friday market, not a restaurant And also an advice: No one should believe the people in the advertisements because they are all liars and only care about the money they take. If anyone doubts what I say, please go and see with his own eyes You can review the cameras and see the whole story, audio and video

Super nice service team that fulfills all wishes and works from the heart. In addition, the food and prices are more than satisfactory. Always happy to be with you :)

Nice togetherness and delicious food!

The food is amazing and the service couldn't be better. We will definitely come back

The food is very delicious and tastes very good although the waiting time is not long but it is worth it. I recommend it 👌

Frankly speaking, the food is excellent, very delicious and clean, and the service is excellent, especially the young man, God willing, he is present everywhere. My regards to teacher Obi.

Very tasty food for a good price

I live in Aachen, but today I was in Ostheim - Cologne. I was very hungry and looked online for a restaurant where you could get half chicken. Then came the Emessa Restaurant. The food was very tasty, perfectly seasoned and just great 👌🏾 Service was very polite. I was served very well. It just took a while for the food to arrive, but the place was full. Good price

Everything was amazing and the best time I ate shawarma But I didn't like the fish

Top service, delicious food and very friendly staff. Gladly again!

Delicious food, nice team and cozy atmosphere

Thanks for the wonderful service

The best culinary experience I had in Germany Highly recommended🫡 Especially when dealing with the waiter Obay

Very good service and the food was great.

The best restaurant in all of Germany. Thank you for the service, food and food 🫶♥️

The food is very good and the shisha is wonderful

This is a great place to eat in Restaurant Emessa. This war is expensive, this atmosphere will generate them, and this service will be in the class. There are many other things that he has with Kellner Rami - he is a foreigner, a professional and a professional. This excellent service has never been so old. I can't eat the restaurant and we are here! My experience at Emessa restaurant was amazing. The food was delicious, the ambiance was very cozy, and the service was excellent. I would especially like to thank the waiter Rami, he was very kind, attentive and professional. His wonderful service made our visit even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant and I will definitely be back!

Mega delicious and everyone is super nice too

A great restaurant. We came here because of the outstanding google reviews. Upon arrival, we were skeptical if it was going to hold up. All doubts vanished quickly after the food came though, because it was absolutely delicious! I can not recommend the food enough. Really traditional, authentic cuisine. We had the grill plate, as well as an olive salad and the chicken shawarma. Everything was more than we had hoped for.

The food is good, nothing to say But I hope you review the order with the customer at the time of payment. They always charge an additional ten euros, approximately, and I don’t know why This is the second time, but someone is ashamed to talk again

I swear to God, the most delicious seating, service and food

Honestly, the food is excellent, very tasty and clean, and the workers are very nice, but the prices are a little expensive

The service was excellent and the prices were fair. Our order took a little longer, but it was definitely worth the wait - the food was incredibly tasty, simply 10/10! I also liked the shisha and cocktails.

Very tasty food, great service, totally cozy and relaxed

I liked the food at Emessa. I can particularly recommend the half grilled chicken with rice as a side dish - even if it was a bit dry in places. The tabbouleh salad was also very tasty and fresh. We sat outside, which was generally pleasant. However, a heater behind me wasn't working, which made it pretty cold. I would like to see more attention from the staff here. Overall, a good restaurant with delicious food – I would love to come back!

The food, service and hospitality are very worthy. I advise you to try their food. I recommend it from the experience of someone who traveled 6 hours.

The food is very good and I advise everyone to try this restaurant Sitting is very relaxing and crazy The service is better than anywhere you have tried I am coming from a far place for 6 hours, especially here, and it is exactly as they say, “Hat sich gelohnt”

The food is very good and flavorful everywhere The service is amazing. Thank you very much

Very tasty food, friendly staff and very attentive, I can only recommend it

Very tasty food and a nice atmosphere.. I would come again :)

A lot of good food, a nice atmosphere, and a good shisha

Nice service and great atmosphere, I also liked the food and there is a lot to choose from

Nice Place, delicious food, good shisha

Rami is a very nice friendly waiter who is very happy!

Super tasty, very nice service and good advice!

I was there for a few days and have to say: Yes, the food was really good, but unfortunately there was far too much bread on the plate and not enough meat. Special requests were taken into account, but only partially (I didn't want any onions in my food, but wanted some other vegetables. I got more vegetables, but still onions). The waiting time was immensely long, we probably waited around 25-35 minutes. Unfortunately, the interior was very loud, narrow and noisy, but the staff was always busy and quick. However, one thing is questionable: There is an open patio heater in the interior, this was also noticed by other people and a person next to me said that you definitely have to call the public order office here. The risk of carbon monoxide poisoning is low because the door to the outside was always open, which meant that an immensely cold, unpleasant wind blew in, but I don't want to imagine what would happen if it did happen and the door was closed, because This patio heater does not have a vent.

And yes guys, the shop is amazing and the food is excellent. Our beloved Rami, thank you very much for the wonderful service 👍🏼

The food is really delicious and I feel like I'm in Damascus.

Very tasty food and friendly service team, I would recommend it again and again. We'll definitely come back See you soon ;)

Food was very good, staff very friendly, gladly again 😄

It was my first experience with the restaurant..to be honest, everything was fine and good and there was no mistake..the service was fast and the guys were very nice and elegant...will come again, God willing😃

God willing, there is nothing better than this

Very tasty food. Good staff. Perfect👍

super nice staff, great service can only be recommended ❤️

The shawarma is too delicious, always after school and it's so hot

I came from Belhika and I highly recommend this place. It is very wonderful, with great seating and a warm and quiet atmosphere. They have many options for all tastes and their food is good and generous. Above all, the price in relation to the quality is very reasonable and cheap. The treatment from everyone is kind and they make you feel that you are invited to them. All the best and success 🤍

All those who did well.. May God bless them

Everything was very tasty. Service also good.

**Very disappointing** We recently visited Emessa Cafe & Resturant and had an extremely negative experience. In one hour we spent over €200 on our meal, we were asked to leave the restaurant without warning, supposedly because of other customers. This treatment was completely inappropriate and disrespectful. We were looking forward to a pleasant evening and were instead disappointed. We will avoid this restaurant in the future and unfortunately cannot recommend it.

The service does not make anyone feel like the bowl of soup is lost. Those who work, but the service, feel that they are awake from sleep, but their pajamas are lost. I ordered a meal with a bit of a problem. Honestly, the quality of the food is zero, bad in every sense of the word, and the price is expensive. The cleanliness, and even the toilet, is very dirty, an experience that frankly cannot be repeated.

Syrian cuisine of a special kind! Something for all tastes! Service and food impeccable👍 Thanks for the experience👌🏽

"We were in your restaurant today and we were thrilled! The food was simply excellent - every dish was a pleasure. The service was also extremely friendly and attentive, we felt completely at home. Thank you for this great evening, we'll be happy to come back! "
