Kudr-et Döner House in Köln

One of the many kebab shops on the Ringstraße. I came here specifically because it's listed on Instagram, etc., as one of the best kebab shops in Cologne. I can't confirm that. The kebab wasn't even average; it was edible, but not particularly tasty. I wouldn't recommend it.

Two of us went to Kudret on the Ringen and are truly disappointed – it was an absolute disaster! We ordered a grill plate for two, but we got a tiny portion, barely enough for one: three small pieces of chicken, half (!) a skewer of Adana that wasn't even cooked properly, and everything looked old and unloved. I complained because there was only half an Adana on it – the answer was actually: "That's the large portion for two." Honestly, that was simply ridiculous. They could have at least added half a piece. The service was completely unfriendly and annoyed, and the food at the next table was even forgotten. For the price, the whole thing is an absolute disgrace. I never usually write negative reviews, but here I unfortunately have to agree with the bad reviews: Pure rip-off, disastrous service – never again!

The service is so-so, but the doner is awesome. Highly recommended.

Update Disaster Service was terrible. Waited 15 minutes for a waiter, then went to the competitor/alternative... Service preferred to clear the table that hadn't been cleared for 20 minutes instead of taking the customer's order... Too much celebrity advertising on social media. Service/quality/taste were terrible - once and never again.

It's straight from juicy steak not from my minched meat , super delicious

Nice atmosphere, the döner is not from mincemeat. The food could be warmer. The classic photos of the famous artists from Turkey looks fantastic. I have tried adana and döner in this restaurant

I had a kebab, which was unfortunately cold. The chicken was sold out. It can happen. The cheese was also sold out, which can also happen. But I don't understand why you complain and then get a new one that's also cold, and I won't accept that again.

The ambiance is really great. I find it very pleasant and stylishly decorated. The service was perfectly fine, but unfortunately, the fries were a letdown. The fries were really good and the sauces were okay, but the meat didn't appeal to me at all... very dry and "hard," like leather, as if it had been warmed on the spit for too long.

It was my first and last time there. All the tables were dirty. Before ordering, I asked about cashless payment. They confirmed this, only to tell me during the checkout process that only cash payments were accepted? The best part, though, was that I saw others paying directly with their cards at the counter. As a guest, you feel like you've been ripped off.

Doner kebab for two people + drinks 44,50 € doner kebab filled with fat drowned and served, I haven't seen such rubbish for a long time

The doner kebab was phenomenal. The bread was super crispy, the meat was delicious, and the spicy sauce was a dream. Definitely one of the top three kebab shops in Cologne.

The sauces were very warm. Overall, it didn't taste good; the bread was too thick. Now I'm just waiting for my diarrhea to come.

If you kept your opening hours the same and placed more emphasis on quality (better-seasoned meat and sauces), you'd be number 1 on the Ring. Unfortunately, the kebab has been mediocre so far, but I love you just for bridging the gap between 5 and 7 a.m.

There are mice crawling around under the benches everywhere in the store! Disgusting! I'm going to inform the health department!

All the staff are very nice, the kebab was delicious 😋

Would give zero stars if it were possible to make it look like nusret by writing et separately in red but then offering a 0 8 15 greasy kebab you are not allowed to sit inside if you buy a kebab sandwich sorry next time I'll get a 5 course meal maybe then I can sit in the classy bomb restaurant 😡😡🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ never again

The restaurant is very nice, but I would have preferred a bit more friendliness and a smile from the waitress. The other employees were extremely courteous and polite—the exact opposite. Unfortunately, I can't say the same about the aforementioned waitress, which left me with a somewhat disappointed impression. I also noticed that she displayed an unfriendly attitude toward me twice. I visited the restaurant twice, and unfortunately, the waitress's behavior remained unchanged on the second visit.

I absolutely love this Kudr-et Eatry shop! They conjure up the most incredible kebab doner sandwich that will blow your taste buds away. The staff is not only polite but also radiates warmth and happiness, making every visit feel special. And let me tell you, the chef is not only a culinary genius—he's also a fantastic dancer! It's a shame Ali is too shy to show off his moves in front of me and the customers, because I can only imagine how entertaining that would be!

Amazing fresh food, dough freshly made and backed inhouse, definateltly a place to go eat 🙌🏼

The doner kebab tasted absolutely nothing! The yaprak meat was dry and tasted of nothing. I saw them adding the sauce, but while I was eating it, I wondered where it was. I've eaten there three times now (I've been to Cökertme twice before) and I've finally vowed never to go back. You pay €18.90 for ONE plate, which doesn't even fill you up (the portions were too small both times). Sorry, but this is a complete rip-off!

How can you treat customers so disgustingly and disrespectfully? I was standing right in front of you, patiently waiting to place my order. A Turkish couple came after me and stood behind me, yet the incompetent staff simply ignored me and served them in Turkish. They got their food before me, even though they hadn't ordered beforehand and weren't ahead of me. I'm sorry I'm not Turkish; perhaps I would have been treated better then.

Fedat served us excellently and spoiled us

The Dürum doner was cold and extremely greasy, and the ingredients tasted stale. Definitely the worst and most expensive Dürum I've had in Cologne so far.

No, not a recommendation. The food was average. You can get better anywhere. The bread was cold; you could tell it had already been torn off by another customer. The waitress pulled a face when I only tipped a euro for this meager meal. People, go eat somewhere else!

Delicious doner meat and bread! Cozy atmosphere. You can't go wrong with a doner kebab.

We received good service from Kerem abi😁 I wish you good business

Stable kebab shop. The price for the chicken kebab sandwich was okay, but I think it was a bit excessive for the beef. It tasted very good, but a little more meat wouldn't have hurt.

Rude staff, serving people they know first and making others wait 15 minutes, not even trying to serve everyone promptly... Not recommended unless you like being treated like dirt.

You can find halal food table here. I liked that the food was delicious. I ate the food I don't remember the name of. It was very filling and delicious. I can say that the food price was reasonable except that the drinks were expensive.

Parking is impossible. Kelle soup is delicious. But the portions are too big. Inexplicably big. I don't understand why these expats are so unbalanced and disproportionate. This is not a business but a customer preference. Bulgur pilaf and rice pilaf came as an appetizer plate with bulgur falafel...

Everything was great, Kerem abi was really friendly. If I come to Germany again, I will come here first.

I had to wait 2 hours only to hear that they forgot my order, in the end they said their rice was no longer there even though I saw it in front of me at the counter but well what can you say if you don't feel like doing your work, definitely not again

We were very satisfied the first time. The second time was exactly the same... but the third and fourth time, we thought, "What happened?" They served burnt chicken doner kebab meat that was extremely salty and rubbery... We asked several times for white rice, but the bulgur still came... Other customers, who were apparently wealthier, were interesting... Something was always forgotten...we had to wait for it so we could eat together...

Well, the highly praised steak doner didn't exactly blow me away. The bread was great, but the contents were so-so. No need to repeat.

It's good that it's not minced meat doner

Thanks for the great service and especially to Vedot, great! I'll be back tomorrow.

Rude staff, and I didn't like the meat at all.

The meat was very nice, but the sauce from the cokertme was a bit sour, but the staff were nice, and there were three of us.

My husband and I were there with our baby and wanted to sit outside and eat a kebab. The waiter said we weren't allowed to do that. The kebabs were only available to take away. We then left. But when we got up, some young people sat down outside at the same time with only kebabs on their trays. We felt really ripped off. The mere fact of telling customers what they can and can't eat at the table is so unfriendly to customers. We then went over to Mangal Döner, it was very tasty and you can eat your kebab outside there ;) It's our own fault, we would never come back and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

I've never eaten as badly as I did here. Totally overpriced and tasteless! The staff was unfriendly, and we didn't even get a written bill. Never again!

A €9 kebab, but there's hardly any meat in it. This place is a real rip-off! I've been there twice and it's always the same thing... just salad for €9. It's a disgrace! And a small 0.2ml Coke costs €3, which is outrageous.

Very very bad...both staff and food

Half meat, half fatty cartilage… The shop is only visited by tourists and has a good environment

Absolutely unfriendly staff. I've rarely experienced anything like it.

Burcu is a super friendly waitress 😍 generally the food was very tasty and the cocktail chair was mega we will be back

There is no limit to the service. We were welcomed very warmly, thank you brother Kerem 👍👍

The food was great, the service was good and they were understanding. I went to Germany for a trip.

Very unfriendly employees, just because we got a fries and a kebab, they were pissed and said we could only take away. After that we were allowed to sit outside. The next waiter came and told us that we weren't allowed to sit because we didn't have any real food. What kind of outrageousness is that? I've been to so many restaurants that I haven't seen anywhere that you're not allowed to sit if you only have a kebab sandwich. Toilets were disgusting, no paper to dry your hands, no soap. But the main thing is to get a 5 star restaurant and that's it. I would never recommend it to anyone else

Without a plate there is no place to sit

Super nice service The main thing is that the shop is empty, but you are not allowed to sit down

Nicely decorated, clean and the service was quick. Food was good.

I went there bc I was literally starving, the plates of other clients looked very decent so i decided to to have a sit, absolutely norhi to complain about the service: Objective, fast and kind. About the food: I reques the classid döner teller, the salad was fresh as it should be, the fries were on right point but the main star of the plate wasn’t quite fol the hole thing, although they offer a lot of meat, a lot of this meet in my plate were not soft döner meat but instead small, dry/overcooked pieces of meet that ruined the hole thing, guys on the plate preparation need to be more attentive. BUT OK, for 20€ i can ask much.

Very good food and fast delivery. You can eat anything. Only the street is known to be loud in the evening when you sit outside

Dear Kudr-et Döner team, your kebab is very tasty when you come back from partying. However, it is not a typical Berlin kebab. I miss the flatbread, I wasn't expecting a sandwich. Nevertheless: very tasty, gladly again.

We ate there a total of 3 times and apart from one slightly over-salted fries, everything was great. The veal on the spit is very tasty and highly recommended.

Before the meal there were two baskets of flatbread and dips. Very very tasty.

Eat. It was cold, the portion for 17 was much too small, I didn't get full, the staff just stood around. Catastrophe when you look at price performance!

I'm really disappointed in Kudret. It is absolutely disrespectful that you are not allowed to eat outside on the outdoor terrace just because you ordered a Dürüm! Every customer pays for their meal, regardless of whether it is a plated meal or a dürüm, and a distinction is still made between guests. It's not acceptable to treat paying customers in such a derogatory way. Food is food, and the patio should be open to everyone, not just certain dishes. Completely outrageous behavior, I will definitely not be coming back.

We ordered Cökertme. Many have heard and seen about it… It was very tasty, almost like at home =P This combination with grated potato, tomato sauce and yogurt...amazing 💪🏽

The meat was tasty but fatty. But it actually worked. However, the service was a bit questionable. Although nice and well-intentioned, the bill was brought without being asked, they insisted on having everyone pay together, and we had to ask several times to pay individually. And when paying the tip you are asked (as in many places) whether you want to press the tip button. Anyone who gives a tip should do so automatically without being asked/asked. Still nice staff

A very special culinary experience at Kudr-et in Cologne! If you've always wanted to know what a lukewarm kebab plate tastes like at a top price of €16.90, you've come to the right place. The taste? Unforgettable - but more because you wonder how you can make so little out of so much money. The service rounded off the evening perfectly: the waiters seemed wonderfully disoriented, which provided some additional entertainment at the table. So if you want to play an expensive guessing game like “Do they actually know what they’re doing?” should definitely plan a visit! For everyone else: There are definitely better alternatives in Cologne.

Impudence! 😡 We wanted to go out for dinner with the family in the evening – some people had kebabs, some people had plates. And then something like this: No more kebab after 4 p.m., only to go?! 😤 What's that supposed to mean? A kebab house should offer kebab! If you're going out to eat with the family, be there beforehand! Before 4 p.m.! Doner to go from 4 p.m.? ! No consumption possible on site...

I was there once and it was very tasty

Very tasty food, great service, thank you ❤️

The food is so delicious and I highly recommend it 😃

Kurdr is a very good restaurant Very good service and very friendly employees. Amed is the employee who is particularly friendly

He took us to our hometown with his wonderful food. We would especially like to thank dear Amed for his care and interest. Next time we visit Cologne, we will be there again with a larger team. I definitely recommend it.

The best meal I had in Germany, where I came as a guest. We were very pleased with the service of the staff and the care and attention shown to our table by the waiter named Amed. It will definitely be one of the restaurants I will visit every time I visit Germany. I definitely recommend it.

The taste of the food was very good. Despite the busy weekend, the staff served very well with great effort. We would like to especially thank the employee named Amed who took care of our table.-

One of the best kebabs I've ever eaten. Mega meat and not a lot of frills. Now it's coming. Eat once and never forget it again. Vedat best man! Keep it up! We'll be back.

The food was really solid, but the service left a lot to be desired. Unfortunately, despite the store being empty, we were turned away (11:30 p.m. arrival time on a Wednesday) because we only ordered one kebab per person. Unfortunately very annoying as I would have liked to have another drink. I can't imagine that such a policy leads to good reviews. Too bad!

Thank you very much to everyone, thank you very much sir.

Store looks great. The food is also super delicious. I had this Cökertme 👍

Really bad food We were thrown out even though we paid for 4 Rollo* drinks, saying it was only for take away! Food was inedible

Ey kebab so delicious old mashalla service was good and quickly gave us our food!

Ended up here late at night from the loony bin. I believe the kebab saved my life. Was delicious. I think.

Upscale kebab. Very nice atmosphere, fair prices and very tasty food. Always my pleasure

I ate with 3 friends No patient from the people who work there 0 reper very male food made Nothing is heated Nothing is hot The 3 of us had a male in the stomach and then I ended up in the hospital 0 really not the best of everything

Thank you for having great food in this wonderful place. If you are thinking about what to eat in Cologne and miss your country, I recommend you to try it.

We ate at Kudr-et Döner House today, and unfortunately, the food wasn't quite to our liking. The fries seemed very greasy and had an unusual flavor. The tzatziki sauce wasn't particularly tasty either. Although hunger ultimately drove us down, the food overall wasn't particularly tasty. We both had stomachaches after the visit, which is unfortunate. On the positive side, the friendly staff and the generally good service deserve mention. However, based on our experience, I can't recommend the food. Perhaps it was an isolated incident, but it wasn't ideal for us.

Highly recommended, especially the house special. Just ask for Bernd Zehner and Maxe's favorite dish and be surprised.

Ate there with my family and we are all in the hospital with food poisoning. Recommend not eating any more

Best foodspot in Cologne, good staff and delicious Turkish food :)

Unfortunately, we had to eat outside even though everything inside was empty. Apparently, everything was reserved. Two women were allowed to sit even though they didn't have reservations. The food wasn't great either. Unfortunately, never again. Having to sit in the cold with a child even though everything inside is empty is sick.

Best kebab in Cologne! 🌯🔥 I've been to Kudr-et Döner House several times and I'm impressed every time! If you're looking for a really good kebab or dürüm, you'll definitely find it here. The quality of the ingredients is top-notch – the meat is juicy and flavorful, the bread is always fresh and crispy, and the sauces are simply amazing. The homemade sauces, in particular, give the kebab a special touch! The portions are also absolutely fair – you'll definitely be full! The staff is super friendly and, despite the crowds, always quick and well-organized. The location right on Hohenzollernring is perfect, especially if you need a tasty snack after a long night of partying. A must-try for all kebab fans in Cologne! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Totally overrated and way too expensive

I strongly recommend You are perfect 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Fries taste really disgusting. Staff don't even want to bring fries. Too little meat in the kebab

Unfortunately, our visit to this restaurant was very disappointing and a torture.... Nowadays everyone thinks they can open a restaurant without any experience. The result is that the entire process is haphazard and disorganized, with all the employees shouting at each other and having absolutely no idea what they are doing. In the corner there was a huge Bluetooth box that was set to ultra loud, which caused the window and the wooden frame to vibrate, absolutely horrible sound. Everything was rattling and no clean sound came out. It gave you a really big headache coming into the store. After we expressed several times that we would like to eat inside, we were told that everything was reserved right next to the hot oven. The wait for the food was almost unbearable due to what felt like 600 degrees. The left facial aid was burning non-stop... it was such an incredible heat and especially the noise. Interestingly, shortly afterwards four young men came into the shop who had also not made a reservation and were immediately given a table for four at the back of the restaurant??? All sorts of people got their food beforehand, a group of young people, 15 people outside who came after us and of course the people in the restaurant itself. We waited for 45 minutes. The food didn't meet our expectations at all from what we had previously seen on some social videos (some young people praising the food, actually just to make others feel embarrassed afterwards)... Actually, we got the complete opposite. The portion was only about a third the size. And it didn't taste good at all. Outside the chairs are completely full of dirt, crumbs, dirt on the tables and everything hasn't been wiped properly. Honestly people don't let these videos lure you in. I definitely won't recommend the store and we will never eat there again.

Food was good, but when I asked if I can have a seat they said no but continued to seat anyone who was white with no problem even if they hadn't ordered anything.

Saw a TikTok video of how bread was freshly made for the kebab, but unfortunately there was none here - the bread was cold and definitely not homemade. The meat and sauces were good. Price €8.50 for the steak kebab

Very good kebab. Highly recommended. I would have liked to give 5 stars but the portion of meat is always too little, even after several times. Could be a little more. Otherwise taste and quality are top.

We enjoyed our kebab inside, but they sat us outside in the cold, even though everything inside was empty and we behaved in a civilized manner. It was particularly unpleasant that we were reprimanded in front of everyone. Not a nice experience

It arrived very late, the staff is rude, I wouldn't recommend it and it's too expensive. I definitely wouldn't recommend it.

The food is ok, the service is very bad. They told us we couldn't choose doner at the table but there were people eating doner at the table next to us.

We need to eat outside and was very could 2 degree the stuff very unfriendly rude.... they don't let person to eat inside if you take durum menu you need to eat outside on the street,we regret to go there

The kebab was dry and not very filled

Scam avoid at all costs. Pretend to help then overcharge if you do not speak German.

My first review I did in my life. I had come a long way and was very hungry. The kebab I bought really disappointed me. Despite being very hungry, he was simply lifeless. Didn't really have a taste. For €8.50, never.

I wanted to eat a kebab but I waited more than 30 minutes for a reaction and didn't get one. Not recommended
