Nirvana Restaurant & Cafe Mechernich in Mechernich

A pleasant environment surrounded by nature, delicious food, helpful and friendly staff. I definitely recommend it.

The service staff could have been more professional, but the atmosphere was nice. It was nice that you brought warm bread to the table, but we couldn't understand why you didn't at least serve two small appetizers with it. To be honest, it was a shame about the delicious bread. Such establishments should make such gestures and not dwell on small bills.

Nirvana Restaurant – Mother’s Day 2025* We went to the Nirvana Restaurant today for Mother's Day - with a reservation and great anticipation of a special day. Unfortunately, this was a disappointment. Despite reservations, there was chaos, long queues at the buffet, loud and overcrowded rooms and no structure at all in the process. There was hardly any thought of relaxation or a festive atmosphere. Especially on a day like Mother's Day, we would have liked more organization, friendliness and overview. It's a shame for the money and time spent.

was invited here when I was visiting a friend, the location is the first thing that catches the eye right on the river with enough parking space, the restaurant itself is very nicely decorated and the winter garden is great because you can open the roof in warm weather, you sit practically in the open air, the food was divine, the staff was friendly and quick, the prices are completely fair, it's a shame that it's so far away from me, I would like to come more often

Very good food, nice staff and very well furnished 👍😊

Absolutely recommended, they even have their own concept for birthday parties and songs😉

Good restaurant, nice location. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Delicious . Great service. Even with larger groups there is no problem 👍🏽

The portions used to be bigger and cheaper, but last time we were shocked when we got our order. Although the quality was still okay, the small skewers caught my eye. Even my little son noticed it. We also paid more for this than before.

Everything was delicious. The employees were very friendly and smiling. It was very clean and the service was very fast.

By far the best Turkish restaurant in Germany. The environment is perfect, the host makes you feel at home and the food is always great. Gladly again.

Nice view and good taste. Really like here!

Absolute insider tip for authentic Turkish cuisine! 👍 My wife and I were completely thrilled and so satisfied that we wanted to eat there two days in a row. Every dish is a true taste experience: fresh, hearty, prepared with a lot of love and simply incredibly delicious! The owner is personable and attentive, the entire team is warm and service-oriented. The price-performance ratio could hardly be better - we have rarely eaten so excellently and at the same time fairly! One thing is certain for us: as soon as we are back in the Euskirchen district, a visit here is a must. Clear recommendation for everyone who appreciates hearty dishes in generous portions! My personal tip: The baklava was the best we've ever tasted - you won't believe it! Be sure to order at the same time.

A cozy, large restaurant, we felt very comfortable. Our food was very tasty. The staff was very friendly. The chif was very nice and friendly.

We came for the open buffet breakfast. The food was very delicious. The environment and service are very successful. However, we found it strange that tea and water were charged extra for the open buffet breakfast. Apart from that, there is a nice and satisfying breakfast menu, we recommend it.

It was very tasty, can definitely recommend it.

Everything was very good, the road can be built, you will not regret it.

We were very disappointed. The food took forever, the staff was completely disorganized and didn't bring everything we ordered. In addition, the dishes didn't come at the same time, which spoiled our meal. The salad had no sauce whatsoever and no bread or other starters were served. There wasn't even fresh bread with the grill plate. Overall we were very dissatisfied

It was much better back then than it is today. The food was cold, didn't taste good and the waitress only came to our attention after several times.

Top restaurant, fast service and very tasty. Will come again :)

The food is very tasty and the service is very friendly. Gladly again and again.

Everything was great, the waiters were very friendly and the food was recommended, would come again

Both the place and the food are wonderful, very delicious. I highly recommend

Well for the prices...I personally didn't think it was that great. The lamb pan was okay but unfortunately not more...meat was sometimes hard and had fatty cartilage on it...my son's grill plate, the meatball was also gristly...for the prices, as I said, well...

We had an open buffet breakfast. The variety and system are not bad, but tea and drinks are not included in the breakfast. I think there should have been at least tea.

We stopped here and were immediately fascinated by this restaurant. Has a wonderful location, great furnishings, lots of parking, friendly staff and delicious dishes! I'll definitely come here again.

Unfortunately the food was very poor. The price-performance ratio was very bad. There was no starter plate, just bread. You had to wait a very long time for the food. Then the food for our group came one after the other; we actually wanted to eat together. The portions were very small, so you didn't get full. The tea wasn't good at all. Unfortunately, the small lake was just a small brown pool, so the view was also poor. SHAME. We were very happy.

We ate in this restaurant on our return trip from France to the Netherlands. It's a good restaurant where you can eat different traditional Turkish dishes and a good all-you-can-eat breakfast. We really liked the location. Right next to a small lake. Very warm atmosphere and the team at the top. The prices are reasonable. In short, nothing to say, highly recommended👍

A place where you can make beautiful memories with your loved ones and enjoy your meals✨

We had a great time in this restaurant. The meals are very good, there is a very nice atmosphere and the servers are very nice.

The food is extraordinary Fast service Friendly staff

A real insider tip – absolutely thrilled! We ended up in Nirvana by chance - just on the way - and were completely surprised! The head waiter Muhsin immediately recognized that we were there for the first time, was extremely welcoming, gave us fantastic recommendations and treated us to tea, cake and little extras. Even though we came from a trip in normal everyday clothes and the furnishings initially seemed classy, ​​we were greeted with so much warmth that we immediately felt welcome - no matter what we looked like. Our two-year-old child was lovingly included, although it was quite full, everything went quickly. Family-friendly, fair in price – a completely underestimated place. We'll definitely be back!

I've been to this restaurant a few times now and it's really one of the best, if not the best, restaurant that I know in Germany. The food is really good. My family usually orders the large menu because there is something for everyone. The food is not only delicious, but also beautifully prepared. From sumptuous starters and delicious main courses to sweet desserts and authentic Turkish tea, it is a restaurant that makes me happy every time. And we as a family have never managed to eat the entire meal. The portions are large and plentiful. The food doesn't feel Germanized, but as a half-Turk, it really gives me the feeling that I'm getting authentic Turkish food. Not a cheap restaurant in terms of price, but for me it's always worth the price. The location is wonderful. Right on the lake. This not only makes the ambience with a window view over the lake excellent, but in my opinion planning a walk by the lake before or after your meal is an absolute must. The only problem I have is that you can't reserve a window seat. Since the seats further in have a completely different feel than at the front of the lake, it makes it a little unpredictable how you will eat. But the staff is super nice and with one or two nice requests and a little wait you can often get a window seat. A visit here is always one of the biggest highlights that me and my family do whenever there are good occasions to celebrate.

The atmosphere is very nice. The cleanliness of the place, its presentation and the diligence of the staff were very good. We were there today as a group of more than 100 people and did not experience any problems. The facilities were very good for a dinner event. The fact that the place is by the lake, among the greenery, adds a special beauty to the place. There is also a walking area and a children's park around. This is also a plus.

Very nice place, we ate very well, and we were very well received. I highly recommend.

The food tasted amazing, the atmosphere was delightful, and the dishes were not only delicious but also prepared with excellent quality ingredients. What made the experience truly outstanding was how impeccably clean the place was.

Delicious food, friendly service.

Nirvana is really good. In terms of service, appearance and furnishings of the restaurant as well as the food, really really good food. Also beautifully presented on the beautiful porcelain. The volume is a bit loud in the large room, but that doesn't take away a star. Really delicious, recommended!

Everything was really nice. The staff is very kind and polite. The food is great. I recommend it to everyone👍

Very, very tasty, and plentiful. It's worth it

A true gem among Turkish all-rounder stores! This place remarkably combines authenticity, quality and warmth. From carefully selected fruit and vegetables to the finest meat products and an impressive variety of spices and delicacies - the range leaves nothing to be desired and reflects the culinary diversity of Anatolia in all its splendor. Particularly noteworthy, however, is the Künefe - a dessert that requires the highest level of craftsmanship and fine coordination in its preparation. Here it is elevated to a masterpiece: baked golden brown, wonderfully crispy on the outside, delicately melting on the inside with perfectly pulled cheese thread, covered in fine sugar syrup and a subtle rose aroma. A truly heavenly pleasure that not only touches the palate but also the soul. A visit to this store is much more than just shopping - it is a little journey through the world of flavors in Türkiye, accompanied by sincere hospitality and attention to detail. Unreservedly recommended.

Very nice people and the food is excellent. There is even a prayer room 10/10 in all areas recommend to everyone

As the saying goes. The best lamb is from the Turks. Since I go there to eat and not to eat, I didn't choose the five lamb chops, but rather the lamb fillet in tomato sauce. When the very friendly waiter asked how it tasted, I could only answer: It was tasty, but I had to look for the lamb fillet and I couldn't find the tomato sauce at all. I had lots of delicious vegetables. However, the menu says tomato sauce, which unfortunately wasn't available. The nice waiter promised to tell the kitchen about this and appeared 10 minutes later with sweets and a greeting from the chef asking for an apology. I was totally positive, surprised and delighted. 10 minutes later we received two vouchers for the breakfast buffet. That's what I call excellent problem management. The waiter was still quite young, but concerned about the well-being of his guests. Hats off and I will be back. Thanks!!!!

Magnificent restaurant, quiet and beautiful place, excellent food, amazing meatballs, I have never eaten such delicious meatballs in Istanbul. The waiters and the young chef are such nice people, I recommend them to everyone.

Very nice restaurant.. the food is of very high quality, the staff are super friendly and the ambience by the lake rounded off our evening perfectly.. we would love to come back.

It's a really nice place, the food is delicious, the employees are very friendly and attentive, the atmosphere is wonderful and very pleasant, they definitely deserve 5 stars.

It was a very nice environment and the food was extremely delicious. The employees were also very smiling and caring. I went for the first time and I liked it very much. It definitely deserves 5 stars.

It's a great place. We were very pleased.

great atmosphere, great food, excellent service

Many too expensive... 25€ for a mini mixed grill plate.. But not an isolated case...

We always love having breakfast here. The employees are all very nice and helpful. The buffet is very diverse, there is something for everyone and the kids love it.

The really good food is accompanied by excellent hospitality

Portions are relatively small but tasty. In addition, there were no sauces with my chicken skewer, which made it a bit dry.

SupeB food in SuperB atmosphere. Lamm, kotlettes are amazing. Ayran is a dream. Location a fairy-tale. Strongly recommended.

I am very happy with everything

Super nice restaurant, food and service is TOP, number 1.

There were 10 of us there for the last break of the fast in Ramadan. Everything wonderful. Service and food excellent.

A wonderful place to eat. Unusual. I'm really happy.

We are just thrilled. A very nice atmosphere. Delicious food. This restaurant deserves all the stars there are.

Friendly staff, delicious food and a decent atmosphere🤌👍. A place with a beautiful view where you can go with your family. Thank you for your efforts👏

The environment is nice, the service is sufficient, the food is fresh, the common areas are clean, the open buffet breakfast does not include tea, average teapot prices are between 15-20. It takes between 20-30 minutes by car from Cologne, there is a walking path and a lake around it. Open buffet breakfast 17 euro

If you like plenty of good Turkish food, you're in good hands here. The ambience reminds me more of a hall. Very suitable for larger groups.

We came for breakfast on the holiday morning. The place, the environment, the ambience, everything was fine, but the breakfast was ice cold. Everything, including eggs, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, was cold, and I was disappointed. That's why I didn't enjoy what I ate. Other than that, everything was fine. They give a 15 euro discount coupon for the next reservation.

Overcrowded, not enough waiters, food not tasty, breakfast buffet wasn't filled properly, partly dirty, fruit not fresh, service unfriendly, tea cold, table dirty, too narrow.

As someone who has had open buffet breakfasts in different places in Germany for years, I can say that the best breakfast in terms of taste and variety was here by far. The employees were incredibly polite and attentive, the atmosphere was very friendly and sincere. If there were 10 stars, I would give it 10 stars, but we have to limit it to 5 stars :)

I was truly impressed by this restaurant! The food was incredibly delicious and freshly prepared. I particularly liked it – it was simply perfect! The staff was super friendly and attentive, and you immediately feel welcome. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for a lovely evening. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend it! 🔥

Pretty good place to dine in I recommend to everybody who enjoys Turkish food

Top restaurant, with great food, supernatural service, and always worth a visit. 🙏👍

We had dinner with friends at this great steakhouse and really loved it. Both the service and the food were excellent. The meat was cooked perfectly and had a fantastic taste. The side dishes and extras were also very carefully selected and of high quality. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive. An all-round perfect experience! We are already looking forward to the next visit.

The hospitality and service are very nice.

Great!!! I can easily recommend it. Best option especially for Ramadan!!

A really nice atmosphere and the food is amazing!

Sure, I can definitely recommend it. I found the prices a bit expensive.

Unfortunately the fries were too salty. Lentil soup was brought half full. Service was catastrophic, even though there were 2 customers in the store with us.

The food was incredibly bad, the side dishes were inedible and the chicken was almost cold, never again!!!!

A quiet and peaceful atmosphere by the lake, a warm welcome and great food... The service is friendly and attentive, the flavors are amazing! Especially the Ramadan menu is delicious, every detail has been considered. I definitely recommend it to those who want to have a pleasant experience full of surprises!

Great service, a harmonious, beautiful atmosphere and very nice staff… Food is great!!

Great shop, it was very tasty and the service was also very great.

Very nice staff, excellent service and overall a TOP atmosphere and quality of food!!!

The view and food were wonderful. I would also like to thank the friendly staff.

The food was very, very tasty! Everything was excellent and I can recommend it! The price was also good.

I'll take some food to my Father-in law and come back

The food and service are great.

Even the toilet has its own respect - two people cannot sit on it at the same time

I am very pleased, I recommend it.

The quality of the grill (including meat, chicken and other products) is very low and tasteless. They claim that the products are halal. I can't say anything about this part. We were there as part of a family iftar for Ramadan. I think I won't go there again. The prices are definitely too expensive. 1-1.5 liters of water costs an incredible 6.90 euros. Never again.

I had a fantastic visit to this Turkish restaurant! The atmosphere was inviting and authentic, which immediately created a warm mood. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Particularly noteworthy were the traditional dishes, which were incredibly delicious. The Adana kebab was perfectly seasoned and tender, and the meze selection was a real treat. The baklava for dessert was also a heavenly ending. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely come back!

Delicious food, friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Everything was perfect.

A breakfast buffet with Turkish specialties – that sounded like a promising start to the day. The view? Really nice. The food? Well, it also deserved a view - perhaps a little more love in the preparation. The fruit was hard enough to play a game of boules with, especially the pineapple. The bread? A potpourri of frozen food and unclear origins - which at least created a surprise effect. Anyone who had been looking forward to fresh, warm flatbread had to go back to their place empty-handed and cold toast. The biggest damper? No menemen to order! A Turkish breakfast without menemen is like a kebab without bread - technically possible, but just not right. Conclusion: Anyone who values ​​a beautiful view and is prepared to compromise on taste will spend a pleasant morning here. But if you come primarily for the food, you might want to consider an alternative.

Very tasty, good meat, good portions, attentive service

If you want to eat like in Istanbul, meet nice people and experience a great atmosphere, this is the right place for you. We love it.

Food is super delicious. I had a holiday feeling. We took a walk in the park before and after dinner. There is also a playground.

Unfortunately delivery was an hour late, cold food and significantly small portions for the price.

I was always satisfied. Food tastes good Service does its job, everything is top notch

So far the dishes were pretty good and tasted good. Still, I can't understand why they sell blackened olives that are declared as "black olives". Why not sell real black olives?

We have been coming to Nirvana Restaurant regularly for years. And every time it's a real treat. Always very good, consistent quality and especially the friendliness of the employees ensure the absolute feel-good factor. Thanks to all........

You can eat well there in the evening... for breakfast it's a complete disaster... €16.90 for burnt, cheap baked rolls... as an alternative there was baguette from Lidl (it was still in the packaging) which was already dry. All hot dishes were cold. Cheese was already dried out... The latte tasted as if the coffee pots from the previous day had been rinsed, boiled and put into a glass. The glass is so hot from the outside that you could hardly touch it. We then wanted to complain, but of course the waitress couldn't decide anything and put us off by saying I ate it too. According to her, the boss isn't there in the morning so they couldn't even do anything about the price.

Sarma beyti was so good! All is so delicious!

We ate there yesterday, unfortunately I have to say we were very disappointed, the waiter Alperen was unfriendly to the children, he scolded the children and told them to sit down and behave, unfortunately the children didn't tell us that until we got home. The children were scared by the waiters to tell us. It's a disgrace on the part of the waiter to deal with him, he was in a bad mood and behaved unfriendly right from the start. We would never want to come to the restaurant again if the children didn't feel comfortable here, our children had lost their laughter and joy on their faces. Everything about the food was much more expensive than usual. The quality wasn't as good, unfortunately they didn't put in as much effort as they used to. The starter plate, which you always got for free, was already available, but unfortunately it would cost extra. Too bad...

We went there for breakfast for the first time on a Sunday two weeks ago and were absolutely thrilled. A huge selection and everything was very tasty. Now we were there again on Friday for breakfast and it was a total failure. Less than half was offered and still charged €16.90 for it. Completely burnt baked rolls and hard, dry Lidl baguettes from the day before. The cheese was already hard and the things that were supposed to be warm were ice cold. When we received the bill and complained about it, we were told the boss wasn't there and that we should clarify the matter with him by phone at another time. Very disappointing unfortunately.
