Istanbul Restaurant in Köln

Excellent Food. Good portion size. You get bread with full meals. Flavor was great. If we come back to We would visit again.

I actually came here twice once with my family and then about a month later by myself. My mom and brother raved about how much they loved the food here and the adana kebab was one of the best they had in their lives. I regretted not try and get my first time so I knew I had to go again when I came back to Cologne. I ordered the same exact thing that they did and it was amazing. The Adana was very juicy the rice was very well seasoned, and the sauce was spicy

The doner kebab is very good and has plenty of meat and ingredients. The average meal price is between 8-14 Euros. Employees and customers speak Turkish. You will not have any communication problems.

Service is a disaster, but the service is even better. Very unfriendly place, and overpriced. 0.2 Cokes costs €2.50. That's exploitation. What will our tourists visiting Cologne think? It's better to steer clear of this restaurant.

The employees are very angry. And that's not nice. They also underestimate foreign people. This is not tradesmanship.

Simply perfect. All the staff were very friendly and relaxed, a very relaxed atmosphere and the most important thing: one of the best kebabs I've ever had!

waiter was in bad mood, food was ok for the kind of restaurant but not so elegant presentation

Very good and fresh meat. I really liked it

The food was great (freshly made minced meat skewer). You sit down pretty quickly and it's rather easy, as it's also close to the train station. The boss was very nice. What was very notable and nice were the very well-kept toilets, which surprised me positively. In any case you can, e.g. Eat very well during a transfer stop

I had the pleasure of trying the Adana kebab at this restaurant, and it was absolutely delicious! The flavors were perfectly balanced, the meat was tender and juicy, and the spices were spot on. The staff was warm and welcoming, and the overall ambiance made the dining experience even more enjoyable. If you're looking for authentic and mouthwatering Turkish cuisine, this place is a must-visit!

For €27 we got a meal that was not only neither cooked nor fried, but some of it was even bloody - and that is absolutely disgusting. Nothing was cooked properly, the meat was raw and had visible blood. You shouldn't serve something like that to a guest! It tasted just as bad as it looked, and we were really worried about our health afterwards. A huge disappointment – ​​zero stars if that were possible. Never again!

After we ate we just wanted to sit for a few minutes. The waiter kicked us out

Well, I've eaten much better Dürüms. I also ordered spicy and there was absolutely no taste of it at all. Should I have gone to Poldi's Dönnerbuude just around the corner?

The food was quick, and definitely tasty. The service was all friendly. Unfortunately I don't quite agree with the price

They dried the meat. The cutlet alone was delicious. It's not worth the price

If you could give zero stars then I would have given zero. It had nothing to do with food at all.

The fries were undercooked; some of the flesh was burnt black; the service unfriendly. The salad looked old; I didn't even touch it. The medical facility is not clean. The only positive thing was the delicious flatbread.

I didn't find the beef rotisserie that tasty

Just bad! The fries weren't even ready and the meat was burnt. The salad looked like it was from the day before.

I really wanted to eat it so I walked all the way to find it... but I'm so satisfied! I think it was the most delicious food I had while in Germany. The price is very reasonable, the quantity is very large, and it is delicious. It's a little salty, but I've already gotten used to it^^ Danke♡

Eat lahmacun with meat (doner between lahmacun) it is successful. Dried beans come with meat and taste good. It's getting crowded. We can say that it is affordable in terms of price.

It is delicious and the portions are quite large, I recommend you to try it.

We left the restaurant without eating because the behavior of the staff was so bad

Great staff, friendly staff, very good taste

Never eat there again, they are careful rip-offs

I travel all around the world and only this restaurant called me "shei shei" out of nowhere. I genuinely like Turkish food but after such word, food taste just gone. Recommend for anyone who rejoice the racism.

The food was miserably bad, the service was disrespectful and completely indifferent. There was hardly any choice, just a few standard dishes that were far from convincing. Absolutely no recommendation.

Meat doner is great. The portions are almost twice as much as in Turkey. For the first time, I felt full while eating meat doner and could not finish it. I recommend that the tradesmen in Turkey should come here and have a meal. The soup is also very successful.

We came from Turkey and had eaten doner kebabs elsewhere and we saw a lot of them on the street, but we have never seen a real doner kebab like this place. Delicious real meat doner kebabs are served here with German style sauces and so on.

Very bad service, they didn't ask us how we wanted our kebab, they did it their own way and the meat smelled funny, bad experience

The food is delicious🥹 The atmosphere is nice and the staff are friendly.

We were here with a group of students. Only 25 people. Service - at the highest level, fast, friendly and high-quality! Very satisfied!

The rating looks good but my visit wasn’t so pleasant. The guy took order seems like doesn’t care at all. And the both meat chicken and beef were so dry and burnt.

I like the friendly attitude of the waiters. The kitchen is good. The portions are huge. The prices are not disappointing. Located in the heart of Cologne.

Not very pleased with the visit. We had chicken wrap. Ive never had something similar. Very oily and the tzatziki sauce they put inside was super watery and bland. Full with big chunks of parsley. Waiters dont speak english so it was hard to understand each other. Toilets from soviet union. And very cold inside the restaurant.

Doner box is 8 euro, not cheap.

Durüm was not good and there was too much salad and not enough meat. It also falls apart half and it tastes cheap for the price:

Adana dürüm was excellent. Gladly again

In short: terrible Long waiting time, meat was only with fat and gristle, fries were raw, service was catastrophic

We ordered kebab, should there be greens in it too? they asked. Yes, we said sheep. We had a hard time finding doner meat among the greens in the doner kebab. We literally ate vegetables. When I reported the situation to the employee they said that if I had been told before the meal we would have changed it. Do we need to open the doner kebab and check if there is meat? Product quality was mediocre, response to customer complaints was very rude.

Mediocre, we waited for a mixed plate for 2 people for 35 minutes. While we were eating one cutlet for two people, they were filling the garbage bags next to me. Garbage was flowing on the ground. It was the first time I went there and this was the last time. It's a pity.

I have never "eaten" such a bad kebab plate in my entire life. Fries raw, meat only fat and gristle. The salad was the only thing edible. The service was incredibly unfriendly; when we asked to wipe the table, people looked strange at first. If you look German, you can put yourself at the back of the queue for now. Everyone else gets their food and you only get it when it's already cold. Catastrophic Update! We went to McDonalds for €10 Wife happy and me happy Belly full

Terrible service, cold food, cold soup, they brought the soup cold twice. Döner is ice cold... The servers are not very polite.

So goooddd. The place is a bit crowded as it is very near to the massive cathedral. The food we had was very good. Can't remember the name but it was lamb and chicken. Also I tried Ayran for first time here. Soooo good

As a heavily pregnant woman, I was shown the door after 20 on a very cold winter day after telling the waiter several times that I was waiting for my partner, with whom I would have lunch here, and just wanted to have something to drink while I waited . Absolutely misogynistic store.

I can't say the food is bad, but a lady inside talks like she almost beat the car, and she kicked out the men at the next table to justify herself. He says wait in line and when his acquaintances arrive, he puts them first. I think it is doing business because of its location. If the disrespect is also improved, it could be great because disrespect is ahead of taste.

If you want to eat a good pizza with your family on your day in Cologne, receive terrible service and almost ruin your trip, this is the perfect place! Everything good in Cologne can be found right outside the door of this restaurant. The staff served us terribly that day, in a bad mood and disinterestedly. A table with 4 adults and 3 children, we only ordered pizza and soft drinks for the children, we didn't create any mess or chaos. They brought drinks. They didn't even open the lids and didn't bring any jars. They brought the pizzas. They didn't bring any dishes. We asked for sauce, they gave us 1. With the slightest desire to oblige. We got out of there as quickly as possible. If you're looking for a good Turkish restaurant with helpful staff who wait tables without looking like they've just lost their wallet or had an argument at home, look for a competitor. Avoid this place. The food was great, they know how to cook.

Very very bad service and bad food. I ordered and got something completely different, when I said this I was looked at so stupidly and they wanted me to eat it anyway because it was prepared. I declined and we left! Was very angry because they didn't accept their own mistake!!!! Never never again!!!!!!!!

Even though there were free tables in the restaurant, I wasn't allowed to sit at the cash register after ordering. The reason was that I ‘ordered before sitting down’. This behavior gave me a very unpleasant experience. I think more attention should be paid to customer satisfaction.

Food was delicious. Staff was so rude, not happy with service

The doner kebab was very dry and burnt, and it wasn't very tasty.

I like the meat it is well spiced. They have a spacious place as well

Disaster! Yufka for 8 EIGHT! EURO!! Service was a disgrace, instead of real menus there were only flyers, which is not appropriate for a restaurant! Then a waitress came and started taking our order, but then just left in between. When the 3 of us got the food after only a short time (despite the restaurant being full) the Yufka was not fresh at all and was hard! Only the meat (veal) was ok. The drinks came (unusual in restaurants) without a glass and only in cans and bottles. We were already being watched while we were eating and when we were finished an employee came and rudely asked us if we could finally leave so that other guests could come. Never again! We then paid at the checkout and they miscalculated, instead of drinks over €30 we only paid €22. Due to the lousy service and food, I didn't correct that either!

8€ for a tiny, cold and dry Dürrum. I really hope that I was just unlucky that evening and that it was an isolated incident!

Kebab doesn't taste good, simple tasteless chicken sandwich. It's expensive with little meat. But employees are friendly.

Worst donor not even close to the real one.

Shitty welcome Department 0 Tasteless food I have doubts about Halal

DONER TASTELESS! Worst service ever! Really rude. They treat costumers as numbers not human beings. I would not recommned it to anyone

Bad service, rude workers. Döner 👎 I don't recommend it.

The food was tasteless. The behavior of the people working there was very rude.

I wanted to try head and trotter, and I regretted trying it, they boiled the water with the piece of tongue and left it alone, I definitely do not recommend it.

prepared quickly, yet simple and not very delicious, could be better

Quality is really good. Both from Adana and from the kebab. Supplements still need to be worked on. Prices are OK. However, the kebab meat is extremely stingy. Hence my stars.

The portion is so small and the Döner bread has Tunfish smell on it. I didn’t like it at all. Waste of money.

Really disgusting, absolutely tasteless. I would never recommend this, it's a complete waste of money. Just disgusting!

This is more of a fast food place with tables called in as quite near to the station the chap that took my order was quite rude seemed to be barking at me rather than talking to me I ordered curry wurst and chips with cola . Well the cola was OK the chips were rock hard the curry wurst was cold but hayho it wasn't too expensive the kebabs that I saw did look very nice tbf

We ate at many places during our family trip to Cologne, but this was the first time we had enough. Although it is delicious, it is really difficult to finish the large portions. Very fast and plentiful staff solves every problem, the doner is great, the pizza is excellent, I recommend it. We paid 33.5 euros for 1 portion of doner, 1 Durum doner, 1 plump doner, 2 ayran, 1 soda, good luck.

Unfortunately the worst kebab we've ever had. The meat was half raw and tough, tasted bland, hardly any sauce and we weren't served what we had ordered. Maybe it's because of the language... The rooms also seemed very dingy and uninviting. Too bad

Bad meat was like rubber, don't recommend it

Ordered a kebab pizza and normal kebab. The pizza didn't taste good. There was too much cheese on the pizza that didn't taste like anything, and the meat was thickly sliced ​​and fatty. In addition, there was hardly any or sometimes no sauce on the pizza. It's a shame but unfortunately not recommended. The kebab was not below average.

Amazing food friendly staff and overall best kebab in köln !

I saw an employee clearing a table and pushing rice from the cleared plates into a takeout box. This box was then taken away by a delivery driver. So you get recycled food.

Very good place to enjoy a kebap

Super tasty kebab, have been here a few times while passing through. The people are friendly and the restaurant is cozy and clean. Ingredients very fresh.

Standard, the kebab tastes almost the same at all train stations! Here the kebab meat was raw on the inside and crispy on the outside… endless salad!

"My visit to the Istanbul restaurant near Cologne Cathedral was an absolute disappointment. The kebab I ordered there was by far the worst I've ever eaten. The veal, which was supposed to be tender and flavorful, was bland and unevenly distributed. The sauce was a watery, tasteless mixture that was more reminiscent of diluted ayran - simply unappetizing. The bread was filled disastrously: I had almost exclusively lettuce on the top and a few scattered ones Ingredients that made me think I had ordered a vegetarian kebab. Downstairs, however, the meat was squished together in a single inedible lump, which completely ruined the entire eating experience. After eating I felt bad for several hours - including stomach problems. You don't expect such bad food and such miserable quality, especially not at such a prominent location in Cologne. I absolutely cannot recommend this restaurant!"

After reading the many reviews, I thought it was one of the best kebabs. After taking the first bite, I immediately realized that it was the worst kebab I've ever eaten

The kebab was tiny and flat like a sandwich, the meat was fatty. Lousy quality and small portion for the usual high price. Once is enough.

I ordered a kebab box without sauce, but unfortunately received one with sauce. When I noticed the mistake and wanted to address it, the staff simply brushed me off. No apology, no solution - instead I was told that's what I ordered, which is definitely not true. The taste was completely ruined because I don't like the sauce. If you order without it, this should also be taken into account. Such inattention and unfriendly treatment make a visit to this store a disappointing experience. Absolutely not recommended!

2x lahmacun 2x Uludag, paid €25, the card said €8 per lahmacun, and €2.50 for an Uludag. Here you are deliberately ripped off by the man at the checkout

Typisch Bahnhof essen für Pendler, Fleisch ohne Geschmack, außen verbrannt, innen roh und Salat ohne Ende! Einmaliger Besuch, dann lieber hungrig bleiben!

Nice little restaurant chicken was delicious. Pilafs were not good

the food was ok but the customer service was terrible, there was no communication and I think it's the manager's fault, he's really rude.

Terrible customer service, the food is okay

Price performance is not right. Doner meat ok. But the rest wasn't good. Then when paying, the 10 was snatched out of my hand. Very strange people there. My colleague had fries with the kebab that she didn't like. Too bad. Next time somewhere else

I only ate kebab. The bread and meat was not fresh. That was the worst kebab I've ever eaten in Germany.

The food was very high quality and delicious. We would also like to thank Mr. Nuri for the service and tea offerings.

The food was tasty. But the prices are a bit on the high side.

This restaurant was right below our hotel and we decided to go there. Unfortunately, my experience was not good at all. The waiter was very disrespectful and only respected people who seemed to tip him. This was one of the rudest waiters I have ever encountered. Also, the food was not special or delicious in any way and was not of good quality. If I were to go back again, I would definitely not go to this restaurant and I would not recommend it. This restaurant was located right below the hotel where we were staying, so we decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, my experience was far from good. The waiter was very rude and only showed respect to people he thought were giving him tips. He was one of the most disrespectful waiters I've ever encountered. Additionally, the food was nothing special and lacked quality. If I could go back, I would definitely not visit this place again, and I wouldn't recommend it. Dieses Restaurant befand sich direkt unter dem Hotel, in dem wir übernachtet haben, also haben wir beschlossen, es auszuprobieren. Leider war meine Erfahrung alles andere als good. The waiter was very rude and showed only respect for the person, whom he thought would give him a tip. Er war einer der unhöflichsten Kellner, denen ich je begegnet bin. The food was also nothing special and had no good quality. Wenn ich zurückgehen könnte, würde ich dieses Restaurant definitively nicht noch einmal besuchen und kann es nicht recommend.

The meat tasted cheap and had pieces of fat that were way too big. The sauce tasted like almost nothing and the yufka was very dry. Our service was very unfriendly. Here, the good location at the cathedral is simply used to get customers as cost-effectively as possible. However, the price was right.

The people who work have no respect for the customers, I strongly advise against this restaurant.

The food was delicious, everyone was very friendly and nice to our daughter, so we felt very comfortable there as a family!

The food was delicious, the service was friendly, the atmosphere was between the snack bar and the restaurant, and attention was paid to the cleanliness of the tables. Recommendation very clear

The service was very good, we were very pleased especially with Mr. Nuri, I definitely recommend the Istanbul restaurant to those who will come to Cologne.

Unfortunately the staff was very unfriendly when it came to payment. We wanted to pay with the card and they said that this was only possible in cash even though they had a card machine.

Adana kebab. Very tasty and filling. The portion is large and comes with plenty of bread.

As a doner master myself, I ate the worst doner kebab of my life. They heated the roasted meat in the oven and served it as doner.

Good kebab close to hotels and cathedral. Super quick service!

By far the worst döner I've had in Germany. Service was nice and french fries were crispy, but the meat was dry and didn't really have any flavor.

The food was quite tasty, but the fact that I had to pay two euros for the toilet was the last thing I thought, DESPITE THE FOOD
