Mevlana Restaurant in Nürnberg

I had to wait so long until my food came, then the doner kebab bottle was cold, then I wanted to have fries with my food, I got rice, then I wanted a large AYRAN, I got a small one, so all in all it wasn't that good, it was the last time

The food is delicious and very good, but the male staff are very unfriendly, especially the Turkish ones. There are delays in preparing the food.

We went there for breakfast and ordered "Serpme Kahvaltisi." It was a hearty breakfast with fries, sucuk, olives, cheeses, melemen, etc. The bread we received in the basket wasn't enough for us, but we received more free of charge upon request. What I missed was the tea. Tea is served in a large cup, which is also refilled free of charge upon request. Restaurants that serve Serpme Kahvaltisi usually serve it in a large pot, so you can refill your tea as you see fit. Some people just drink their tea faster and generally drink more. In my opinion, that should be changed. The staff was friendly and definitely accommodated your every request, BUT you could also tell from the outside that they weren't really in the mood to do that. The plates we were given weren't particularly clean either. Would I come again? Yes, if management addresses the points mentioned and changes or corrects them.

Things couldn't get much worse. I ordered a mixed grill for dinner. There was no Adana kebab to be found. Most of it consisted of burnt chicken. When I asked, I was told that the platter was delivered as is and that Adana kebab wasn't included. The chicken soup I ordered in advance was greasy and flavorless. Even the salad could be bettered by any kebab shop – it was watery and bland. Overall, it was a real disappointment. Even the tea was undrinkable. I can't understand how anyone can still call this a restaurant. I left everything. At the checkout, they didn't even ask why I had barely eaten anything!

Overall, the food was really very good. The side dishes were also delicious and perfectly complemented the meal. All in all, a highly recommended visit.

Great food Very hard-working staff Highly recommended But A recommendation to the owners: For a restaurant of this standard, a kebab made of minced meat is not appropriate. We would prefer to find leaf kebabs (yaprakdöneri) there. All the best Best regards

Beautiful Turkish restaurant, delicious food and prompt friendly service! Strongly recommended !

Was there for the first time but never again

I've never had such a bad kebab plate as this one. The meat and rice were both far too dry, and the waiter was also extremely tense. However, I must say that the manti my friend ordered tasted good.

Always a pleasure. Very good service, friendly young lady. Breakfast, as always, very good.

The food itself tastes good, but the prices are skyrocketing. That's why we don't come as often anymore.

Spoons and forks are kept outside, in fact they are so old that there is no place left to scratch, don't go. The soup was very bad, it was cold

Very good menu with many delicious dishes. Please note that alcoholic beverages are not served here.

We're usually regulars here, but this time we were unfortunately not at all satisfied. We ordered Adana Dürüm and a doner kebab plate. The meat on the doner kebab plate was chicken, which was unfortunately not good at all. The meat tasted old and very tough, and the portion was very small for the price. The Adana was inedible, the meat tasted of nothing, the Yufka felt crumbly, and the salad inside was hot as hell. (The dürüm had probably been thrown back in the oven or toaster, which then really reduced the quality.) The service seemed very disinterested, no please, no thank you. In the past, they offered cay after the meal, but not in this case. The fact that you're asked to pay every time is not particularly hospitable either. It's a shame, really, because we really like eating here, but this time it was a complete waste of money and time. Don't get me wrong and I hope this comment is taken to heart. You have a great position in Nuremberg, don't ruin it with poor quality and disinterested employees.

Nice staff, but • The quality of the food is declining, • Prices are rising, • Portions are getting smaller, For €23, you naturally expect a meal that's both delicious and filling – completely understandable. You rightly wonder whether you'd rather go to a good Italian or Greek restaurant, where you might get more for your money.

I was passing through Nuremberg on a whim and stumbled upon this restaurant. A top spot! The food was excellent and the staff were very attentive.

The food tasted good, but the portion was unfortunately very small. It wasn't filling. The mixed plate was particularly disappointing—I would have expected more.

The food was okay, but not restaurant-quality. The soup was cold, as was the rest of the meal. Some of the meat wasn't cooked all the way through. No one took my complaint into consideration. And it was exorbitantly expensive, too. We'll definitely be back again.

Delicious Turkish food. I've been going there for years. Always fast and delicious. The prices are also perfectly reasonable.

Everything was really bad, one of the places you should definitely not go, when I asked for lentil soup, a spoiled, lukewarm ezogelin came and they claimed it was lentil soup😂😂😂 Don't say I'll eat lahmacun, what's the worst, the worst of the worst was minced meat sprinkled with tomato paste, my friends, Turkish people in Germany really come with longing for their homeland and to ease that longing, some don't want to forget that taste, but you are killing the taste, my advice to my expat friends is not to go to such places, you don't find your money in the trash, your mother or you can make your own from home, this business needs to be changed urgently, from the waiter to the cook, it even came 10 minutes after I asked for the bill, I'm not exaggerating, since I have been here, this is the first time a Turkish business has caught my eye and embarrassed me this much, I am sorry as a person of my country, please fix yourselves urgently. Success.

We ordered the traditional pide (etliekmek). It bore no resemblance to the original! The dough was like lahmacun, and the meat was a disaster—dry and probably not veal or lamb. The portion was small and poorly presented.

Food... Pide for 10 euros - disgusting

Unfriendly conditions; we waited an hour for our food. The plates felt like they were being thrown onto our table. On top of that, the food was cold. Napkins weren't brought out automatically; you almost had to beg for them. For us, it was the last time.

We regretted eating there. Not recommended.

Not recommended; the service was extremely unfriendly. We had to wait an hour for our food, and it was cold, too. The plates were practically thrown in our faces.

I had no idea a restaurant could deteriorate so badly and so quickly. It used to be one of my favorites, but the quality and hospitality have declined so much that you even feel uncomfortable inside... The restaurant itself has become so dirty and unkempt. I don't even want to talk about the restrooms; they're absolutely disgusting, smelly, and full of shit. Is it that difficult to maintain hygiene? The owner places so much value on his customers, respect... On top of that, everything has become even more expensive, and the quality and taste have deteriorated to zero. ... My family and friends will never go there again...

I can recommend this shop because all the staff and the food is very good and the service is first class.

I can highly recommend this restaurant

We had beyti and pide. The food tasted really good. Unfortunately, the salad was already dried out and the portions were really small. It's a shame you can't fill your stomach here.

The halloumi salad tasted of nothing, the falafel was okay. The large dining area across the street has a gymnasium feel, and the restaurant looks okay. The price is reasonable, but overall, it's not a must-visit.

We ate there for the first time today, and we were thrilled. The food was simply perfect. It was incredibly delicious.

Authentic Turkish cuisine, a bit expensive but worth the money

The taste of the meat is good. But the sauce used in the couplet ruins the dish. They added a different spice to that sauce. It is not eaten.

Had dinner with my family on Friday, the last time I'll just say. Years ago it was completely different and much better. Now the quality of the food has deteriorated. Meat very dry and seasoned

The food here is great and the atmosphere is pleasant. However, there is a need for discussion when it comes to service: ordering is quick, but it can take a while for the food to reach the table - expect a wait of 20 to 30 minutes. Even sitting at the open window for a quick kebab is a drag, which wasn't the case before. Especially the guy who makes the kebabs is extremely slow.

Sehr lecker. The food and the service was excellent. Highly recommended.

The employees are very rude people who have nothing to do with service and gastronomy.

Honestly, this was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've ever had. We went to this Turkish restaurant in Nuremberg and it was just disappointing. The food came incomplete - we had to ask several times where the rest of the dishes were, and each time they said: 'Oh, we forgot.' We also had to ask for the sauces that we had specially ordered because they simply didn't bring them. In the end they said they couldn't resubmit it. The service was really poor, the staff was unfriendly and uninterested. I really advise anyone who goes to this restaurant to be careful because they don't bring you everything. You have to constantly chase after people to get what you ordered. For me it was definitely the last time - absolutely not recommended.

I ordered a mixed grill plate at this restaurant. The meat was brought, but in significantly smaller quantities than was expected according to the menu. The starter was also noticeably small - compared to what was served to other guests, we clearly felt disadvantaged. When we politely pointed this out, the waiter responded rudely and disrespectfully. Instead of offering a solution, he directly told us not to come next time. This is an absolute no-go for a restaurant. Our conclusion: rude service, unfair portions, no customer orientation - very disappointing and not recommended.

Even though it was packed, the service was quick and very friendly. The food was great and not expensive. I'd love to come back next time.

You eat Adana kebab, the meat is good, but there is no onion, tomato, parsley, sumac, etc. Moreover, they put cucumber and iceberg in it, we saw and experienced how to disgrace a dish....

Unfortunately a disappointment today. Service, especially a service person who served us, walked around like a sleeping pill. No please, no thank you... no attention to the guest whatsoever. Two dishes also came cold. I didn't feel comfortable, it's a shame. We love eating out and spending money accordingly, but you also have to give the guest the feeling that you enjoy coming here. Anyway, have a nice holiday.

I can really only recommend the restaurant. The food was really great. Service very friendly and helpful. The chai after the meal was really a great thing. We felt absolutely comfortable and will definitely come back.

Food very tasty. Service also very friendly. Could be a bit more comfortable. Nice outside area. Feel free to come by again

The food is delicious, in fact, among all the meatballs I ate in Turkey, the meatballs I ate here are in the top 10. In terms of variety, it is as good as a kebab restaurant in Turkey. However, the service is a bit poor due to occupancy. When you walked in, no one even said hello or welcome.

17.90 a single bottle for Adana is a lot of money

It was the first time I came to this restaurant for breakfast and it was the last time, they brought Jam, Nutella, honey, potatoes and sausage mixed together like garbage. I asked the waitress politely, "Do you have another plate? Do you bring it like this?", "What she said is, 'eat it or not, that's the way it is for us.' I left the breakfast as it was, paid the bill and left, I never saw such disgrace. I would never recommend it to anyone.!!!

The quality of the food remained in the 90s.

Good food but very unpleasant waiters!!! We ate and drank tea after dinner and all the dishes with leftover food were on the table all the time. Nobody cleaned up while we were there and we didn't ask if we had any further requests.

Had dinner at Mevlana in Gostenhof yesterday. I have to say, the Adana Kebab was really tasty, spicy and juicy. There was also fresh pide bread and a small salad. Priced completely ok for the portion. ​ The store is busy, so it's a bit noisy, but that's part of it. Service was friendly, but sometimes you had to wave to get attention.​

I have rarely eaten so well. I can recommend everyone to go here. You feel like you are in Turkey.

For sure never again. It was one of the worse Turkish food i have ever had beside the horrible service.

Highly recommended. The restaurant was full but service was still quick and the delicious food came quickly. Staff is very friendly.

Oradaki bayan şayet istediği oranda sipariş vermediyseniz tavrı değişiyor. Menü verirken ilgi çok Az sipariş etmisseniz trip

We've been there before, it's a nice restaurant, the food is great, but when we went for breakfast, the lady working treated us as if we were eating for free. We asked for tea, she was speeding up, so the employees had to be friendly. If I wanted a nice breakfast, the bill was no problem. I already told them that many people say the bill is expensive. I don't look at the bill, I look at the quality and service.

I have known this restaurant for over ten years and have visited it regularly - at least once a year. Unfortunately, I have seen the quality continually decline over the years. Meanwhile the meat is as tough as rubber and the taste is completely disappointing. With the Beyti, only the tomato sauce was noticeable - there was no trace of aroma from the meat itself. In addition, the portions have now become significantly smaller. This was definitely the last visit for me. By the way: The neighboring shop called Frankonya, which also belongs to the same owner, also leaves a lot to be desired. We ordered three different desserts there - and all three were simply miserable.

I ordered a kebab plate. Unfortunately the quality of the meat was disappointing - dry and tough. The bread was also very dry and not warm. Unfortunately the sauce was very bland and tasteless.

If you want to wait 20 minutes for an order while the waitresses argue, this is the place for you. Last visit.

I was pleased with all the meals and desserts I ate. I felt like I was in Turkey. I would like to especially thank Mr. Orhan for his good service, interest and concern.

Hello Everyone, I was in Nuremberg for 5 days in the last week of March. During this period, I had 3 dinners at Mevlana Restaurant. Frankly, I was very pleased. Especially the warmth and helpfulness of our waiter "Orhan Bey" was amazing. It is a place where even people like me who are obsessed with Hygiene can easily eat. In short, if you go to Nuremberg, I recommend you to stop by.

One star for Fanta. The food is tasteless.Rice is tasteless.The salad is a joke, no fresh ingredients. I had a kebab plate, the meat is good. The employees are nice and quick.

We were there today for Sugar Festival with six people. The food arrived cold because it is brought up from the kitchen downstairs. You could understand that, since everything is full in Bayram. However, I have to say that I was very disappointed with the prices and the portion size, the prices are exaggerated and the portions are very small. The staff is very unfriendly and stressed, you get the feeling like it's mass processing. I won't go there anymore.

The grilled and appetizer varieties were delicious, but the stews were not good, especially the beans were very bad, I wish the rice had stayed a little longer, it would have turned into cake.

Worst kebab in a long time. Flesh completely dried out, like cardboard. The kebab tastes stale. The service was unfriendly. Too bad, I'll avoid the store.

Employees don't respect with customer

We had heard of it before, so we decided to go when we thought about it. Their iskender was quite good, the chicken skewer was soft and delicious, I can't say the same for the lahmacun. "I say this as someone who is used to pistachio lahmacun, it tasted tasteless to me." The prices are a little above the market, but this is normal because you are receiving service. The place is nice and the waiters are attentive. We liked it, we will come again.

The food was very tasty, p service staff helpful and polite. Thanks. See you soon!

When asked whether the food was halal, you had to think about it first and stuttered. We then asked for a certificate and they said quite aggressively and unfriendly “if you don’t trust me you can leave”. We then went to the neighboring restaurant with 5 people (they were great). Seemed very dubious and untrustworthy to us. Someone who really offers Halal would never hide it like that.

The flavors here are excellent, especially the doner kebab, the service is fast, as in Türkiye, the hygiene is great, thank you, everything is very nice.

We usually used to go and eat, but lately, Mevlana has turned into a place where fasting people turn it into a coffeehouse after iftar. What is a seed, my friend, people who eat in one month what they did not eat in eleven months, if you ask, we are fasting :) Anyway, I hope not to see people cracking seeds in the place where we come to eat, dear Mevlana officials, best wishes.

Very nice ambiance and friendly staff. The food was delicious, but the wait was a bit long.

We were here an hour before closing time. The staff was still very nice and friendly. We could eat there. The food was very good and the portions were large. I recommend.

Yarim saat ayakta bekledikten sonra Obrahim Tatloses gelecek diye disariya cikartildigimiz mekan. Gercekten bu puan böyle bir yer icin cok fazla!

Everything was delicious, service was fast.

I was often in Mevlana and the food was great except yesterday there was a hair in the bread and in the kebab box it was really very disappointing

Vera cucina turca a Norimberga. Ayran spaziale, carne morbida e saporita! Ahimè niente birra ma forse è pure meglio così!

Let Orhan serve you, he is the man of honor of Mevlana and leaves nothing to chance. Quality is Champions League here. I had Yayla soup and a turkey kebab for dinner. Incredibly delicious.

I ate Beyti Kebab. It wasn't very tasty. The service and staff were good

It was delicious. We are satisfied

The shop is small compared to the demand, we waited in a long line at the door while we were at the fair in Messe last week. We expect the business owner to invest :)

The kebab sellers don't understand German or don't want to understand you, don't pay attention to any extras, don't listen to you at all, it's happened several times and it takes a long time to get a normal kebab because they're constantly chatting.

The mixed grill was absolutely delicious - perfectly prepared, tasty and generously portioned. The service was outstanding, with friendly and attentive staff making the dining experience even better. I can only recommend this place for a fantastic meal!

Order delivery time is too long.

Great ambience and friendly staff. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. I'd love to come back!

Food was tasty but got cold quickly. The atmosphere is rather uncomfortable

A Very big variety of dishes, nicely served, a lot of meat dishes and variety of veggies, and my favourite Turkish coffee.

I come from North Rhine-Westphalia, you just can't compare Turkish food in North Rhine-Westphalia. Prices are awesome but it's not bad I ordered a mixed kebab plate, everything unseasoned, cold and a little rice Bulgur as if they were eating a small child. The meat was too little, 3 pieces of chicken, a lame cutlet without Adana, a small meat skewer from the freezer, burnt The 4.5 star rating is not justified; it is the only shop in the area Better go eat somewhere else Staff very nice But I don't want to eat again Bread was so cold like yesterday's bread was served

It's a bit expensive, but it works

We are absolutely thrilled! Were there for the first time today - great service and the food is absolutely world class! I had to add more salt, but I generally eat very spicy foods - not everyone likes that! Vegetables are fresh, meat is tender and not dry at all and all in all the food is very tasty! We will definitely come to Nuremberg again for that :)

It's good, just the food is not good, it's really ordinary

Eating snails but a little bit of doner meat is not enough

quite okay except for the prices....

It was a great experience and calm atmosphere.

The food was okay overall - the beyti tasted particularly good, while the rest of the meat was okay but nothing special. The starters were solid. Service and ambience were fine. You can do it.

The food is delicious and always top quality. The products are well labeled and the price matches the offer.

I ordered a kebab plate and a kebab to take away last night. We ate it at home and noticed that the meat wasn't raw in many places. Unfortunately half of it has already been eaten. We had stomach pains and cramps all night long and unfortunately that goes with it...

I've been there more often in the past, but recently (2024) I had the impression that the service and food quality had deteriorated somewhat. I may be mistaken too! Definitely always worth a visit when your stomach calls for Turkish cuisine!

It's incredibly dirty, counters, chairs, tables, floors, there's a hectic, restless, sad atmosphere everywhere. Never again.

I was there for dinner with my family, the food tasted really good, it was super tasty, the best restaurant in Nuremberg mevlana ❤️❤️

Delicious food, delivered quickly. Fresh salad. Great service. Price performance is ok.
