Öz Adana Kebap Salonu in Essen

We spontaneously stopped by for lunch with our young son today. Our order was taken quickly and friendly, and we promptly received delicious, warm flatbread with various dips and salad. The dishes were all very well prepared and seasoned, the portions were very generous, and there was easily enough to take back for dinner. Everything tasted absolutely delicious. For dessert, we ordered a portion of baklava with tea and coffee, also absolutely top-quality. The ambiance is clean and well-maintained, befitting a good snack bar. Plenty of seating. Clean restrooms. Important to note: NO CARD PAYMENTS!! The price/performance ratio is absolutely reasonable. We would love to come back! Thank you very much!!

Not as cheap as expected/hoped, but very tasty and served quickly. Very friendly team!

As always, extremely delicious kebab skewers with rice and fresh, warm flatbread!

Incredibly delicious! If you're nearby, you should get a mixed grill plate! Two adults and two children were satisfied with a plate for two people! Top class!

This is the third time I've been here with a colleague, and now I simply have to write a long-overdue review. From the outside, the place looks like a run-of-the-mill kebab shop, but once you walk in, you immediately realize how huge this place is and that it has little in common with a standard kebab shop. At the entrance, there's a counter with a kebab skewer and the usual salads, but the counter extends further to the area where a few masters are working on the heart of the place: the charcoal grill with all its skewers. You can smell the aroma several meters from the front of the restaurant. Next to it are platters of sweet pastries like baklava. Further into the restaurant is a large, stylishly furnished room with around 25-30 tables and very comfortable seating. So much for the ambiance. The service is always extremely friendly and attentive, and you feel at home. Great! Last but not least: The outstanding food. I've had two Karisik Izgara (grilled plates) and one Adana Kebab plate. After taking my order, I've always been served a salad plate and plenty of homemade, grilled flatbread strips to share, including three homemade dips in larger bowls – free of charge, mind you! I think some people are already getting full. Then comes the ordered dish. The grill plate consists of a lamb chop, an Adana skewer, several chicken cubes, a larger piece of chicken steak, onions, salad, and a side dish (fries or rice), all beautifully presented and seasoned. Not only are you more than filling, but – and this is the most important thing – it tastes absolutely fantastic! Mediterranean grilled flavors throughout and a succulence that is second to none. Even the lamb is a delight, and that's not to be taken for granted! Every single course tastes delicious. From the deliciously dressed salad to the grilled flatbread with the amazing dips to the main course and the sweet desserts. And when you're (unfortunately) finished, there's a cay (tea) to finish it off. Amazing. Along with Kebapland in Cologne, this is by far the best Turkish restaurant I've eaten at so far, and I'll definitely be going back. Be sure to try it!

Very nice and clean restaurant... The waitress Mrs. Serap is very friendly and accommodating

Super tasty, great service, top value for money

I came from München, first of all it was so beautiful and delicious, everything was great, thanks to the grill master Müslüm, everything was great, the staff was also great.

I tried Adana and lamb shish wrap, it was extremely delicious.

It's so crowded, it's hard to sit because of the noise.

In my opinion, this is the best flavor and the best kunefe in the region.

We got food poisoning after eating there. Confirmed in the hospital. The review keeps getting deleted.

On Friday, I had the chicken skewer to go, and it resulted in food poisoning. My pregnant wife even had to be hospitalized.

We enjoy going there regularly. The meat tastes fabulous.

We went out to eat and it was just great! The food was fresh, tasteful and prepared with love - the grilled dishes in particular were incredibly tasty. The portions are generous and the price-performance ratio is good. The service was very friendly and attentive, you immediately feel welcome. The restaurant is clean and comfortably furnished - you can tell that the work here is with heart. We will definitely be back – a clear recommendation for anyone who wants to eat authentically and well!

Have eaten in so many Turkish restaurants, be it in Germany or Turkey. It's really one of the best restaurants! The meat is nice and tender, everything was really well done, including the desserts. The only thing that needs to be worked on is the service. Will definitely come more often!

No, it is very loud, often very crowded, and expensive! Fries taste old and dry, kebab is very greasy and consists of a lot of gristle meat, simply cheap quality. It has worn off a lot!

I experienced it by reading the comments online. It was a real feast with my family. The portions are very generous and satisfying. The employees are polite. Payment is made in cash, cards are not used. There is a parking problem, but you can find empty spaces in the back streets, as I did. I recommend it.

Overall, the tastiest grill in Essen and the surrounding area

Your taste stop with everything. I recommend it to you.

Very tasty food! The grilled dishes and the homemade Ayran are definitely recommended. Beforehand there was a (free!) starter of flatbread pieces with various dips. We all ordered different dishes and we all enjoyed them, especially since the portions are very large! The atmosphere is authentic and very familiar. The service is friendly and, as soon as tables become available, they are made available to new guests. The price-performance ratio is appropriate. We have been there twice now and will visit this restaurant again when we visit the city of Essen again!!

Thank you very much 👌🏻 everything was perfect

Went for İftar with work colleagues. Food and service were first-class. Haven't eaten this well in a long time.

It's been great for years. Always full but the guys make an effort and everything goes quickly..top

Super tasty and fresh, very nice service

For iftar grill plate for 2 people pre-ordered with the request no rice just fries... picked up and what we see is full of rice and bulgur. Lamb only 1 piece Steak only 1 piece, so for 49€ that was a bit low..

A wonderful Turkish restaurant with authentic food and a warm atmosphere! The dishes are fresh, perfectly seasoned and prepared with a lot of love. We were particularly impressed by the grill plates for several people. Price-performance ratio top. The service was attentive and friendly - you immediately feel welcome. We'll definitely be back!

Absolutely great place, decent, clean and delicious

We visited this restaurant on Saturday and overall had a very pleasant stay. The staff were extremely friendly and served us excellently. The food was really delicious - especially the Adana, Beyti, Pide, which was simply great! Unfortunately we didn't like the iskender, it wasn't quite to our liking. Unfortunately I can't recommend it any further. But the overall picture remains positive and we would definitely come back.

Always very fresh, always very tasty. Best quality. Recommended.

It was very loud, you couldn't understand the person you were talking to. Soup was way too hot, not good. Döner plate was nothing special, the hot sauce is pure ketchup and doesn't go well! Service was friendly!

The restaurant is very nicely decorated and has a good location. Today I ordered a kebab plate which was very tasty because no savings were made (meat, salad, sauces, rice). That was a decent portion. Only to recommend.

It's a very nice place, they make the best iskender I've ever eaten. The meat is not dry, the workers are very kind, keep it up 👍🏽

You can eat there very well or have it delivered

In particular, Urfa Kebap is original, like from home. I never thought I would find the taste in Germany

First of all: I wasn't there, I'm just criticizing the appearance at Lieferando: This is simply catastrophic in my opinion: - The stated delivery times (- the general ones, which I cannot judge after a successful delivery) are arbitrary, i.e. that the stated opening times for delivery are not adhered to. - The menu leaves a lot to be desired: For many dishes, including the "classic" kebab, there is no choice about the filling as far as salads and sauces are concerned. - For many dishes it is not clear whether and, if so, which side dishes are included. I wanted to order here several times because of the good reviews, most recently well over an hour before the end of the specified time window for orders, but after a while I was only informed that my order had been canceled. Apparently the store is doing too well to serve Lieferando customers. But then you should perhaps consider whether you should give up this service, since you obviously don't attach any importance to it.

It was really tasty, the service was also very quick and very polite.

The kebab meat is great! All grilled dishes are also recommended. If you want a decent kebab, you're well advised here!

If you were there to eat there at the weekend with your family I can really say pozitif pozitif pozitif pozitif pozitif pozitif pozitif pozitif Shop top food top price top service absolutely top atmosphere anyone who is nearby should just eat then you know what I mean by that I can only say simply fantastic1++++++++++

The food was good, the meat was cooked well and tasted good! If I ever come to Essen again, I will definitely come again!

Very generous portions and everything very fresh and legga

I stopped by on my way to Hannover, everything was great, the atmosphere is good, it's a spacious place, the doner kebab is very good, I recommend it to those who want to stop by.

Great delicious food and ambience. Attentive service. The griddles for 2 people or more are epic. We got the “leftovers” packed up and ate them the next day. Clear 5 stars

We ate mixed grill for two, the taste was not bad, but for that price, at least an Adana Kebab and a doner kebab could have been extra, so they divided a single adana into three or four and put a handful of doner kebabs on the tray. My advice is to buy it yourself, cook it at home and eat it. Not only here but in every restaurant, the prices are extremely abnormal and they do not deserve the money they pay. You can shop for a week for that money. I can recommend Adana kebab and döner.

Very tasty food has been there several times now and it tastes better every time, and the staff are also very nice and polite.

A very good restaurant, From the service to the food 10/10. Nobody goes home hungry here.

Good but way too expensive! Please make prices cheaper and please offer breakfast again!! Since there is no breakfast here anymore, I haven't come here

The food is super delicious, especially the chicken. The waiter with a cap is professional and very hygienic

We ate very well and would love to come back

Very tasty food, nice staff and a very clean restaurant. Definitely recommended

The food was good, not the best tho! Will go again :)

Overall it's worth a visit. Why only 4 stars? Because of the prices. Otherwise highly recommended. Ps. It might get “a little” crowded on the weekend 😉

Authentic Turkish restaurant - plate more than enough for 2 people - compliments to the kitchen - all meat variants had a cooking point that you couldn't get better - small note, the peppers have an extreme level of spiciness - but it could also be that I was a little weak

Adana, iskender and künefe are really delicious and the service is top💯

Even in Turkey you won't find such a delicious Turkish pizza(lahmacun) many thanks to öz adana. We often come from Gelsenkirchen.

Food good, ambience also good, service satisfactory

Everything was very nice. The food was full of delicious portions. The employees were attentive and friendly.

Due to a lack of alternatives for a stop, we came across the restaurant by chance with our hiking group (8 people) and we didn't regret it - despite the restaurant being full, they spontaneously made a table free for 8 people - the staff was super friendly - the food Very tasty - large salad plate and various dips with freshly toasted bread were available free of charge as a starter and a black tea at the end - all in all a perfect end to our hike on the Zollverein-Steig - we would love to come back!!

Döner and soups are very good, but the service is a disgrace.

My best friend is Turkish and I really like Turkish cuisine and have eaten here a few times. I was really positively surprised and the food was always very tasty, everything was freshly prepared and always kept nice and warm. In addition, a friendly staff who keep their nerves stable even on stressful days when the store is overcrowded is very admirable. The only disadvantage that annoys me a bit is the rising prices where a small kebab now costs €7 hmm but they can't help that either.

Very nice staff and good service. The food tastes good but not great. A bit expensive for my taste but the big city is good.

The food was very tasty and there was a lot of it. We even had some left over. There were 5 of us and we got a plate for 3 people and something extra. It was more than enough and very very tasty and service was also great and they did everything quickly and took care of us.

If you are looking for Halal and delicious food Öz Adana will the perfect restaurant for you.

Öz Adana Kebap impresses with authentic Turkish cuisine and offers a true taste experience. The food is excellently prepared and the portions are just right - generous but not overwhelming. Particularly noteworthy are the friendly staff, who create a pleasant atmosphere through their attentive service. Anyone looking for delicious, traditional Turkish food and all-round great service will not be disappointed here. Absolutely recommended!

The place is very wonderful, and the food and the way it is presented are distinctive. I recommend this and visiting it and their food

The service was fast, I ate ribs, the taste and cooking consistency were good, the sauce of the wings my son ate was bad, and the tables inside were very close together, I didn't like this, but overall it was successful ✌️

I was allowed to let out everything I was allowed to eat this morning. Everything tasted good, but apparently something wasn't right.

Four of us went there today, looking at the comments on Google, we thought it was a delicious place, but unfortunately we were disappointed, the service was very good, I can't say the same for the food, we ordered mixed grill, including chops, chicken skewers, meatballs, French fries, rice pilaf, garbage skewers, others except chops. They were all very bad, they filled the seasoning and it was too much. They were fried, most of it was burnt, I ate the cutlet, I said it was fine, the meatballs were very bland and salty, the adana looked like anything but adana, it was bone dry and the mixed grill for 4 people, 3 ayran, 0.2 Coke and water cost 108 Euros in total, we were not satisfied at all, the chef needs to be changed urgently, there are a lot of employees. They were kind and polite, I would never go there again and I would not recommend it to anyone.

It's a shame, we drove here specifically for the breakfast buffet, arrived at 12 p.m. and was told that there hadn't been anything for a long time. Although there should be until 2 p.m....

We were there on Saturday and we really enjoyed the food. The employees were friendly and the service was also good. We would like to recommend the restaurant.

I decided to rate the Öz Adana store this time because I think it tastes super tasty and also very fresh, but when it comes to the service I have to be honest and they need to get it under control VERY URGENTLY. You place an order as a family and later only receive one portion at the table. Every time I have to repeat everything that is missing and every time we all can't eat. Today we were served by 4 waiters individually who had no agreement at all with each other. And finally, until the first dish arrived, even though the shop wasn't even 50% full, it took exactly 45 minutes and another 20 minutes until a kebab and dürüm arrived. I'm sorry, but I don't think that's normal.

The best restaurant we went to with my family. Its food is amazing, and it is number one with its customer service and satisfaction. Thank you for your hands and efforts.

The only thing missing is open 24 hours a day.

Grill plate was very tasty - we were very satisfied!!! This was definitely not our last visit!

It was not stated that it was closed, it went all the way and it is not moral at all to be closed.

I ordered a grill plate with an additional portion of kebab and then enjoyed Künefe with cream. The portions were large, very juicy and extremely tasty. The warm pide complemented the whole thing perfectly. The Künefe was not overly sweet like other restaurants but had just the right amount of sweetness. At the end we were given a glass of tea as standard. The service was very polite and nice. Ambiance is of course a matter of taste, for me it was quite ok. All in all, highly recommended – we will definitely come back!

The food at this restaurant is truly outstanding, but unfortunately several of my orders have been canceled this year - four times in total. This is particularly frustrating because all orders were initially accepted. In one case, I had even pre-ordered and the cancellation only happened a few minutes before the agreed delivery date, even though there were several hours in between and the restaurant was open. It seems as if there is sometimes not enough capacity for cooking and delivery, although the restaurant is still marked as open on Lieferando. Previously, the restaurant would mark itself as closed immediately after a cancellation, so orders would usually always arrive when the restaurant was shown as open. Unfortunately, I was never informed by phone that my order had been canceled and why. It is noticeable that orders under 30 euros are canceled much more often, while orders over 30-40 euros are almost always delivered. Perhaps it would make sense to increase the minimum order value or temporarily close the restaurant - as has been done in the past - if it is too busy. I will change this review once the issue is resolved and I no longer experience last-minute cancellations.

I come here often and have the best service Of all the restaurants!!

Mass processing!!!... No thanks. There are far better ones out there

Pretty decent Turkish restaurant in the neighborhood of Shaft XII of the Zollverein Coal Mine. I enjoyed the food. Recommended.

Very 😋 delicious! Always my pleasure. Thank you very much

Ordered another grill plate today. Finished within 30 minutes. Everything fresh, warm and delicious. Staff on site are always very friendly. Highly recommended 😊

No, the plates are filled to the brim, but in terms of quality I will leave it at this one time

This restaurant is simply amazing! I've been here a few times now and every time I'm impressed. The meat is always super fresh and the staff is super friendly and attentive. Absolutely recommended for anyone who likes really good food.

Very tasty food. Fast and good service. You can sit inside and outside

Highly recommended! Friendly non-pushy employees. You are not constantly looked at while you are eating. Ideal family restaurant where you can enjoy a nice meal with your family.

Been there last week, really quite an experience with colleagues. We ordered a big platter and it was very good , we had a great time and the service was really friendly. Loved the experience, definitely worth the top rating it has, If I ever visit Essen again there will be my first choice for dinner out :)

Meats were delicious And the portions are large.

The shop may seem good at first glance, but the food is an absolute disaster. I ordered an Adana Kebab and was horrified by what I received. It tasted as if the kebab had first been soaked in oil, then grilled briefly and then dipped in oil again. It was so greasy and oily that the oil literally flowed out of the bread. An absolute nightmare for anyone expecting to enjoy a delicious meal. I definitely wouldn't recommend this restaurant, at least not until they do a major overhaul of their cooking methods.

The food was delicious but salty, besides that everything else was marvelous

Extremely tasty and rich. Not just typical kebabs but also clearly authentic food. Apparently there is also a buffet, but we decided on a platter for two. This is very inexpensive at €42. In the front area there is take away, in the middle there is more of a buffet and in the back area you can sit very nicely. Service was extremely friendly, one star deducted because card payment is not possible, otherwise 5 here too 😁

Was there for the first time today. It was worth it, highly recommended, great food, plenty of it, very very nice service, great hospitality. Great ambience

No card payment possible, welcome to 2024...

My habibi my friend Bazaki did everything to keep me happy and full after 10 p.m. Keep it up, I felt well served alongside the food

I met a waiter called Ayaz, I swear he's the best 😂

Food does not arrive hot when you order it at home, it used to be tastier.

The food was very delicious. The waiters are very friendly and helpful. Portions are very filling.

I think Cola came out of the war. People either look at what they put in or don't try to give it to the customer. shame shame

The 100 km there and 100 km return trip were worth it!!! Super good service. Nice staff and the food tastes great. Thank you !!!!

Highly recommended, top quality, super friendly and super tasty
