Orkide Döner Kebab in Essen

Very tasty, good quality. No tendon or cartilage in the food. Friendly staff.

Very clean shop and very friendly staff. The steak was the highlight. Very juicy, and you can tell the quality is outstanding. This is by far the best steak doner in Essen.

Best steak kebab in Essen Great meat and great atmosphere

Clean store, not good value for money. Small portion. I won't be back.

Very friendly and pleasant atmosphere. Excellent food.

This kebab shop is by far the best kebab shop in all of Essen! Be it the service, the waitress, the atmosphere, the selection of dishes and skewers, everything is perfect. Everything is always freshly prepared and ALWAYS uses high-quality ingredients. The best and number 1 for years!

​"The staff is very nice, and this is the best kebab I've ever eaten😋😋😋

Spectacular! Simply better than I expected. There's nothing like it in Venezuela.

You can be fooled by reviews. It was a completely ordinary minced meat skewer with lots of salad. A doner kebab and a Coke cost €11. Next time I'd rather eat Chinese food for that price.

A pretty solid kebab. But somehow the meat used to taste better. The sauces and salads were very fresh.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food was also delicious.

The doner kebab/dürüm is continually getting more expensive. The portions are getting smaller and smaller. €9 for a dürüm/rather thin kebab! The doner kebab parcels are also increasingly sparingly filled. Guys, this isn't right. It's okay and understandable that prices are rising. Please give the same service and not a child's kebab... If I'm paying almost €10, I want to be full. Great quality, please keep it up!

Wanting to eat the most amazing kebab in the world while drunk—one of the most powerful emotions known to mankind. So I go to Orkide, pay my €8, and expect a great product. What do I get? "With what? What sauce?" Sauce after the side dishes is a disgrace! McCee's had to be refilled. But hey, at least the same lads always hang out at Orkide, no matter when I stumble in drunk.

Super delicious kebab. One of the best in Essen, in my opinion.

Today I finally made it to Orkide. It's been on my list for a long time. What can I say? I've actually had better kebabs around here. Personally, I think it's just standard meat with standard seasoning. Tasty and not bad, but nothing special. On the plus side, the cocktail sauce was really delicious and the service was good. The salespeople were extremely nice and friendly.

It is a place we go to often, we recommend it to everyone, it is perfect

Taste, attention, interest, very nice, spacious and distinguished place

In one word, everything was great.

I ordered a doner kebab and can honestly say it's the best in all of Germany. Everything was fresh and the staff was very friendly. Thank you for your service. I recommend everyone try a doner kebab here at least once.

It was the best döner kebab I've had in Germany. If you're ever in Germany, definitely stop by. The staff and owner are both very nice and warm-hearted.

A very clean and nice restaurant and super nice and friendly service 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Really delicious doner meat and friendly staff.😋😊👍

When I went to Germany for a visit, they took me there. We ate very delicious and nice food. We were also very pleased with the service. I recommend it to everyone.

The portions are worth the price. The sauces are truly delicious and stand out from other kebab shops. The staff is super friendly. My only criticism is that the plate dishes should definitely be offered in a small portion, because the large one is really large and almost impossible to finish! 😅

I've only heard positive things about the store, but my experience was different. The wait time was exactly 15 minutes for two patties, a dürüm, and a fries. (For me, it was too long without anyone else in front of us.) Taste: The veal patty without sauce was disappointing. For me personally, it had zero flavor and far too little meat in it. I only tasted lettuce :/ Fries: Was okay. The sauces are supposed to be delicious (my boys had garlic). The only positive thing for me was the hygiene and cleanliness of the store.

We always enjoy coming back! Great value for money, salad is always fresh, and the staff is super friendly. Highly recommended!

Very brazen and unfriendly employees, absolutely abusive behavior

Eigentlich alle Döner Läden in Rüttenscheid durch Probiert, das ist der Laden der Wahl. Nicht der Billigste und auch nicht der teuerste, sondern der wo es Schmeckt. Schnell und Ordentliche Arbeit am Produkt.

The food is delicious and served quickly. The tables are clean. Prices are a bit on the high side. Otherwise, I'd happily go there again.

For us, the best kebab for miles around! Very friendly staff, good service! The food is always delicious. Salads are always fresh! Generous portions! Highly recommended 👍👌

Highly recommended. The kebab and everything else is perfectly prepared. The staff are friendly and accommodating to your requests. Very cheeky. :)))

I've been eating here for years. It's always delicious. Friendly staff, top quality. It wasn't for nothing that it was once ranked among the 25 best kebab shops in Germany. The kebab meat is excellent.

One of the best kebabs, eat it whole. Try it once and it's become Derik's favorite. I can only recommend it 👍🏽

I swear best kebab, best staff everything is good 👍🏻

Super friendly people here with really delicious food.

Sometimes you enter a place not with expectations, but with an empty stomach – and leave with something much more precious: a feeling. Orkide is not a garish temple of modern fast-food. No garish colors, no artificial intrusiveness. Instead: substance. Craftsmanship. Pride. For years, this place has defied the changing times – and with a consistency that has become rare in this industry. The quality? Unchanged. And in the best sense. No capitulation to trends, no lazy compromises – but the quiet, powerful decision to simply stay good. The bread is more than a shell – it's a promise. Warm, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside – toasted so perfectly that you can feel: someone here isn't just doing their job, here someone is living their calling. The meat – neither overstuffed nor stingy. It hits the exact spot between indulgence and moderation. Succulent, finely seasoned, with character. It doesn't force itself on you; it's convincing. And then the vegetables: a colorful mosaic, fresh, crisp, and diverse. Not a loveless side salad—but an equal partner on stage. Plus, a selection of sauces that is second to none. Each of them balances flavor and intensity like a skilled conductor balances his musicians. But the real moment happens after the meal. About ten minutes later. When your stomach is full, but your head starts dancing. When you pause and realize: This meal was more than filling—it was moving. Flavor as an aftertaste. Enjoyment as a memory. Orkide is not a place for fast food. It's a place for a lasting impression. A place where you taste what dedication means. And that's why I say without hesitation: Orkide is one of the best kebab shops in Germany. Not because it's loud. But because it doesn't need to be.

Tasty kebab, nice service, moderate prices. I can recommend this place.

As a newbie to Döner it was great to have a detailed explanation of the menu and very appropriate recommendation for a starter meal. Food was great!

Great staff, always friendly. The food is also top. Clear recommendation from me

Great welcome, very friendly, very good meat! I highly recommend!

The vegetable kebab was very tasty and the staff was very friendly

The best kebab in NRW in my opinion. Really delicious and a great team behind it. Thanks so much!

By far the BEST kebab I have eaten in Germany!

The kebab is absolutely amazing, an absolute taste explosion 💥

Very good kebab plate that I will eat again and again. Turkish pizza is good but unfortunately the taste of the paste is so dominant that you can't actually taste much of the kebab meat. Overall, one of the best kebab shops I know!

Best kebab in Essen!!! Recommended

Food was very tasty. Price performance is also right. The service is also very nice and seems very relaxed when little customers have difficulty making decisions. We'd love to come back!

Relatively medium-sized store, good ambience and inviting flair, menu clear and well-equipped. The kebab was perfect, I'll stop by often and order one☺️

Top 3 worst kebabs ever. Never again!

Spontaneously called for a family of 15 people. Super friendly Ordering without any problems and getting the food very quickly. Delicious Price 👍🏼

This place was fantastic, with a great mood. The food and service were brilliant too. And the place looked nice. I had fries and a Durum. I’m coming back later for sure.🔥

Very nice and cozy, amazing and very nice staff :))

Excellent kebab, super great service! Absolute recommendation!

Far too little meat for the price. Next time I'll get a large fries for half the price.

Everything was great - just a bit expensive.

I ate 1 small size Döner with extra meat for 1€ which is 9€ in total, i could say the döner was really full , the extra meat was really extra and i could say one of the best döners i ate in my life

Really good kebab plate with variations.

I can only recommend this kebab shop. Great food, very nice staff and it's always clean. Will come again and again!

Doner kebab ordered without sauce and without salad… What do you get? Doner with everything.

Atmosphere is not spectacular but the food certainly is!! Super quality meat and fresh vegetables🤤

Very nice staff and the kebab tastes good but unfortunately there is very little meat and salad in the kebab bag.

The Iskender plate is unbeatable!

Best kebab shop in all of Essen.

10/10 nothing to complain about

Have come here more often with the Family and the Service and Food is very good so definitely recommended!!

We came from the Netherlands and were very well received. Great service and the food was delicious too. At the end there was tea on the house.

Top shop!!! We were welcomed very well and served very well by the employee Hasan. Always happy to come back to you...

They are professionals and “go-out people” at Rüttenscheider Stern who are used to and tried and tested. Looks a bit bare and desolate at night, but they are prepared for the many drunks and have put away everything that is mobile. You can still eat well here late.

Delicious. We had the veal plate and it was so extremely big, I have no idea who could eat that much. A good kebab experience for a change.

I came from Istanbul as a tourist, I stopped by upon recommendation and ate German-style doner kebab, it was very successful, satisfying and delicious, the employees were friendly, they immediately bought me tea.. thank you..

I just ordered veal kebab with something spicy. I didn't mention a word about Extremely Sharp. Unfortunately my kebab was simply inedible and extremely 100 times spicy. I don't know what level of spiciness it was, but no Indian would have endured that. I just have heartburn all day. Then we charged €6 for uludag and coke. I'd love to come back but please throw away the powder.

Very nice service! And delicious food, I can recommend it to everyone :)

Wow, the kebab is very tasty and the portion too 👍. No worries..

Best kebab shop in Essen. Hasan and his team are extremely friendly and super accommodating

The food was very tasty, especially the yogurt sauce

Very nice staff and the food is great

Amazing taste, I recommend it to everyone.

After visiting the trade fair, I looked for a kebab shop nearby. Came across orkide and have to say, great kebab. The service guys were very nice and polite, the kebab was nice and big and tasty. There is also enough seating available. Orkide is definitely recommended.

Always delicious We eat the doner kebab Service was very friendly and helpful

Very good kebab. Best kebab I've ever eaten and the best staff ever.

Eating the best kebab tastes great people also bomb

Orkide Döner in Essen offers an outstanding kebab that impresses with fresh ingredients and a perfect balance between juicy meat and crunchy vegetables. The homemade sauces round off the taste and make every bite a pleasure. The friendly staff ensures a pleasant stay, and the central location on Rüttenscheider Stern makes the restaurant easily accessible. For me, Orkide Döner is the best kebab shop and absolutely recommended.

The service was relatively quick 😁

Best kebab I've ever eaten! You have to come to France, the quality here is not there! Everything is fresh, raw vegetables, not fatty meat! At the top💪👌

It's so incredibly clean here. Please keep it up.

Aus Latvia visitors. Very tasty, responsive staff, fast and high-quality service, rarely delicious kebab.

The food was okay, but I wasn't particularly impressed. The prices are way too high for what you get. The portion of meat in the kebab pocket was too small - it was more salad than meat. However, the salad was fresh. A positive highlight is the very friendly service!

Super tasty kebab and nice service

You really have to try it, it tastes like a 90s kebab

Delicious food and a great atmosphere inside, I recommend it to you here!

Doner meat is great Service top Best in food

Super nice and helpful people, the map is also great

I've known this kebab since the 2000s. The kebab with yogurt sauce still tastes the same as it did back then. This brings back childhood memories. Still very tasty and incomparable. Even though I no longer live nearby, a trip to Orkide is still worth it 5 stars 🌟

Orkide Döner in Essen is a must for kebab lovers. The dishes are deliciously prepared and the quality of the ingredients is first class. Particularly noteworthy is the kebab itself, which is juicy and tasty. The atmosphere in the restaurant is cozy and friendly, and the staff is always helpful and friendly. Prices are also reasonable, making this place a popular choice for many visitors. Overall, Orkide Döner offers an excellent dining experience.

Delicious food, pleasant and helpful service

Good kebab. The device cut the meat. Meat juicy and bread crispy. Clear recommendation.

We came with my wife this evening, the doner kebab was incredibly delicious and big. We will definitely come again. Also, many thanks for the interest of one of the Turkish employees.

Food tastes great, employees are very nice.

Has been the best Mükver/Döner/Dürüm provider in Essen for years... The healthiest, high-quality fast food is available until 5 a.m.

Here you can eat delicious kebab. There is a wide selection of salads and sauces. The service is friendly and accommodating. You can eat good kebab here.
