Piro Restaurant in Karlsruhe

We've been coming here regularly for many years and are always very satisfied. The food is truly excellent, the quality is consistently high, and the portions are generous. The friendliness of the entire team is particularly noteworthy – you always receive a warm welcome and feel right at home. The restaurant itself is also clean and well-maintained. The price-performance ratio is absolutely reasonable, especially considering how much general costs have risen in recent years. Nobody gets their goods for free these days, so we appreciate the consistent quality all the more. ✨

It was a fantastic stay all around. We'll be back.

Hello everyone, We regularly go to this Turkish restaurant and are always delighted. The quality of the meat is excellent, the portions are large and truly satisfying, and the food overall is plentiful, fresh, and full of flavor. It's always a pleasure to eat there. What's especially important to us is that our children are always happy when we go. They feel comfortable, enjoy eating with us, and appreciate the atmosphere just as much as we do. A restaurant we can highly recommend.

Have eaten here several times, always good, always worth going back

We stopped by briefly last night around 11 pm, and the nice gentleman offered us something to eat. It's by far one of the best restaurants in all of Germany, but unfortunately, I can no longer afford the prices and won't be coming back. A doner kebab plate costs €17, and an Adana kebab is €21.50. I'm not paying those prices anymore, and my wallet doesn't stretch that far. Highest recommendation from me! Friendly service, clean restaurant, and a welcoming atmosphere. Best regards

After negative reviews, warnings are issued, and one has to submit a sworn affidavit for the post—that says it all. My opinion stands. The incident was reported to the health department. The original post has been removed. I seriously wonder how the positive reviews come about. The current state of the shop doesn't match them. This used to be one of the better kebab shops in Karlsruhe. Unfortunately, nothing of that remains. On my visit today, I ordered a kebab and a yufka to go. I was the only customer and still had to wait about 10 minutes. The selection of ingredients was very limited; several containers were half empty. Price: Kebab + Yufka + Cheese = €19.50. The portions were disproportionately small for the price. The kebab was very bland. The bread wasn't homemade and was noticeably hard. After eating, I had a distinctly unpleasant, furry feeling in my mouth. My son (6 years old) complained of a numb feeling in his mouth after eating half a yufka. We didn't finish it. The hygiene was particularly concerning: An employee was moving prepared salads from one plate to another with his bare hand. Used plates were simply wiped with a napkin and placed back with the clean ones. The entire place looked neglected and was in dire need of cleaning. After a long day, we were looking forward to a quick, good meal. Instead, the visit was disappointing and a health concern. We will definitely not be returning. A report has been filed with the relevant inspection authority. Price per person: €10–20

The Turkish grill restaurant is my favorite when I'm in Karlsruhe. The food was delicious, and the quality of the meat was superb – tender and well-seasoned. The flatbread is homemade, and you can taste the difference. The service was friendly and attentive. Even when the restaurant was full, the food arrived at the table quite quickly. The restrooms could use an update, as could the menus. Unfortunately, parking is limited since the restaurant is located in the city center; with a bit of luck, you might find a spot on the same street.

It's getting on in years. The doner kebab tasted good, but the diarrhea afterwards was unpleasant.

It's not like before, all the food was better in the past

The three of us ate here today. We used to come here more often and were always satisfied. I have no idea what happened, but this definitely isn't the best doner kebab in town. The three of us each ordered an Iskender Special. I've never eaten such a bad Iskender. Not in all of Karlsruhe. It tasted like it had been deep-fried in oil. The meat was extremely gristly. When we asked about it, they said it was because it was layered. Let's be honest. If I layer good, high-quality meat, I still don't get any gristle. On top of that, the bread was soaked in oil. We'll definitely never come here again. And none of us felt well after eating it. I even felt nauseous afterward. Please make sure you improve your quality and don't just keep driving up the prices. It was certainly one of the most expensive Iskenders I've eaten in Karlsruhe. €19 is quite a steep price.

It's one of the best places to find products like yufka (wrap) and döner kebab. It's a perfect complement to those craving a cup of brewed tea after a meal.

€9.50 for a moderately filled doner kebab. Unbelievable. Taste-wise, it was rather below average. No wonder we were practically the only ones in the place.

So I ate the world's smallest soup for the exorbitant price of €7.50. A cold İşkembe soup that was just liquid and barely contained anything. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

The İskender kebab was delicious, but the Adana kebab was truly nothing short of delicious. Even in Turkey, I've never tasted anything this delicious. The yufka bread they brought smelled like a village. Everything was simply magnificent. 👏👏👏

I happened to be there for lunch today. It was truly delicious, and the restaurant owners and staff were so friendly and welcoming. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart☺️☺️

Regular restaurant, clear line and super quality for years

Very good kebab, with slightly greasy/crispy roasted meat and fresh pocket bread. Payment only with cash or German EC card.

One of the better kebab shops in Karlsruhe. The menu could be a bit more extensive. Unfortunately, the prices are a bit too high, especially for drinks.

Be fooled by the good reviews. We went in and immediately left because the smell was simply disgusting, and the atmosphere was very dreary and cold, not at all inviting. So, a definite no!

Best kebab and lahmacun in town. There is also a charcoal grill, a stone oven and a comparatively cozy atmosphere.

The food is of good quality (and quantity), but the service is inattentive and unprofessional. The restaurant's ambiance and decor are also lacking, all outdated and lacking in contemporary flair. Finally, when we paid, they didn't accept foreign Visa/Mastercard cards. In short, a dinner to forget and not recommended.

While we were eating, a mouse ran past our feet from the back kitchen area. The employee explained that the back door was open because the employees were smoking and that's where the mouse got in. There was no compensation, just a muted silence in the hope that no one would say anything. They did apologize, but only to the people who actually saw it at the time. That was the last time I eat there. You always ask yourself whether the food you're eating hasn't been nibbled on beforehand.

I had dinner here with guests from abroad, and we were all very disappointed. Compared to the past, the portions are much smaller, the farmer's salad simply has no flavor (especially the cheese used here), and the doner meat is mediocre at best, even below average. The service was also inattentive and not very service-oriented. Overall, a bad experience that won't be repeated.

The kebab here is simply perfect 🤩

€16 for a simple doner kebab with fries? That's completely excessive. For that price, you can get a turkey schnitzel with side dishes and a fresh salad in a traditional German restaurant – and all with traceable ingredients. At Piro, you feel more like you're sitting in an average snack bar. The service itself is noticeable: basic gastronomic knowledge is lacking, for example, when setting the table – the cutlery was placed haphazardly. The doner kebab itself was poorly presented and tasted nothing special. For that price, I expect significantly more quality and atmosphere.

The menu has many options. The staff is nice.

3 out of 5 stars – Good food, but way too expensive and the restrooms are a no-go The food at Piro in Karlsruhe was truly delicious, with absolutely convincing flavor. The process during the visit was also well organized, everything went smoothly – so there were no long waits, and the service was fine. But: The prices are extremely high – definitely excessive for the portion size and the quality offered. Unfortunately, the value for money here is not at all right. You simply expect more at these prices, especially when it comes to the overall experience. Another major drawback: the restrooms. They are certainly not in the condition you would expect in an upscale restaurant. Unhygienic and poorly maintained, which unfortunately significantly spoils the otherwise excellent dining experience. Conclusion: Great flavor, but overpriced, and cleanliness – especially in the restrooms – urgently needs improvement.

Everything is fine, just very warm inside

Very tasty food, very friendly service, and good prices. I'd happily return.

I finally went there after seeing the delicious videos on Instagram. The guveç is a dream!

Wow Piro, just wow... For €9.50! Got a kebab that was the right size, but with very little topping. No red or white cabbage, and they didn't even offer carrots as a substitute, even though they had it... I wasn't even asked for pul biber. There was nothing wrong with the meat, though. Overall, for €9.50, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone; it was my last time there!

With such good customer service, only EC cards are accepted. In this day and age, where debit cards are becoming more and more of a payment method, it's time to adapt... If you don't move with the times, you'll be left behind...

I used to eat here often and was unfortunately disappointed. The meat was really well cooked, but the selection was much smaller and more expensive than at other restaurants. It was worth a try.

Not only has the Tavuk sis plate become more expensive, for example, by 3-4 euros, which is okay. But the quantity and quality have also decreased, and the chicken meat tastes cheaper and of lower quality. It's no longer the way it was all these years.

The most authentic Turkish restaurant in the Karoo, with a history of more than 20 years. I have also been a customer of this restaurant for more than 20 years. The most recommended is the No. 100 Lamb Chop Set in their menu. You won’t be disappointed. The portion is huge. The lamb is now grilled over a charcoal fire. The lamb is rolled in the skin and tastes delicious. Yufka Doener is a bit salty

The best Turkish restaurant in the Karlsruhe area! Food is super delicious. The waiters are great!

I've been going there for years, the staff is always very nice and attentive.

It was amazing the food mashala

Best kebab in all of Karlsruhe would even debate whether it is the best in all of Germany. Absolutely fair prices for such an incredibly delicious kebab.

Saved on tomatoes and onions for the kebab and yufka. Staff very unfriendly.

Piro is an established restaurant in Karlsruhe. Solid food, very good service and a good ambience. Adana kebab tastes good but could be a bit better.

I can recommend the kebab pizza

It's quite ok. But a bit expensive compared to the competition. Although quality is the same. Nevertheless, a visit is not a problem at all.

The food is very tasty and always fresh. Service is quick in the restaurant. The staff is always very friendly. There is a good selection, prices affordable.

Best restaurant in Karlsruhe!!!

The lahmacun is thin and the edge is a little crispy and the kebab meat is perfectly seasoned - an absolute pleasure! The desserts not only impress visually, but also in terms of taste. Service was top and ambience is good enough

The food was really great and there was so much...you'll definitely get full.😊👍

If you are looking for first-class meat, high quality and excellent service, you should definitely visit the Piro Restaurant on Europaplatz. The dishes are not only a highlight in terms of taste, but also perfectly prepared. The friendly staff ensure a pleasant atmosphere, while the cleanliness and order round off the positive impression. Everyone gets their money's worth here. A place where enjoyment is very important! Definitely worth recommending!

I like it, good food with a pleasant daily menu, very friendly service. Easily accessible from the center... always my pleasure..

Food was good if you were hungry, not exceptional but also expensive. Lidl Cola in a 0.2l glass without carbonation for 3.00 euros. Service, well, the employee wanted to cheat us out of a whopping 10 euros. Ambiance was good, but too dark

It was the worst doner kebab I have ever eaten in my life. I have eaten it many times in the past and it was quite good, but this time, there is almost no tasteless sauce in it, the old taste has disappeared.

Always a recommendation - we have been coming for almost 20 years.

Discovered the new meat skewer Dürüm via Instagram. Hammer!

I absolutely cannot recommend this store. We ate there and specifically asked that the meat be prepared fat-free. The result? The meat was almost entirely fat, and the beef was so tough that it was impossible to eat. Despite our open complaint, in the end no one came to apologize or clarify the situation in any way. After two spoonfuls from the plate we got up and left - I've never experienced anything like that. An absolute disgrace! I advise everyone to avoid this store. There were 3 of us there and there are 3 0 star reviews! An apology at the end would have fixed everything!

Definitely not recommended, pure rip-off, price-performance ratio extremely overpriced in contrast to the quality

Regardless of whether I ordered online or ate there, this is the best kebab shop in Karlsruhe so far. The employees are always very warm and very friendly. Can only recommend the store.

Our absolute favorite restaurant! We come here regularly and are thrilled every time. The service is simply top – incredibly friendly, attentive and always trying to ensure that the guests don’t miss anything. The food is fresh and prepared with a lot of love and the portions are generous. It's always nice to be here - a place where you feel welcome. Many thanks to the whole team!

I never thought that a place with over a thousand reviews and a 4.3 star rating could have such a bad atmosphere. I'm still in shock. When you enter you are greeted by an unpleasant smell. While you think about what could be causing this smell, you lose your appetite. The dim lighting, the stuffy, oppressive air and the old furniture make me feel like things could be worse in the kitchen area.

The Piro restaurant in Karlsruhe has been my absolute favorite shop for many years. I eat there regularly because the quality is always right. The food is fresh and tastes really great. The service is friendly and attentive, the atmosphere is pleasant and relaxed. You just feel comfortable and the people there are good people who do their job with heart. A clear recommendation for me - if you're looking for good food in Karlsruhe, you should definitely stop by here!

One of the best restaurants in all of Karlsruhe if you like taste🤤🤤🤤

A colleague and I were here in the evening and took two kebab boxes because of the brutally expensive kebab prices. The worst kebab box of my life! The meat wasn't cooked through, the fries were barely fried and incredibly greasy. And on top of all that, the portions were also below average. For the price it was a disgrace and I threw the stuff away halfway through.

For me, by far the best Turkish restaurant in the city and the surrounding area! Absolutely top value for money and definitely worth a visit!

Good food, nice staff. Quality has been maintained over the years.

Very friendly service Very nicely decorated for my taste The pizza is big and very good. The ingredients are high quality, which you can tell from the olives. 14.50 euros for a pizza is a bit steep but it is very good and it is downtown. Clear recommendation

I waited 20-30 minutes for two takeaway yufka. Even though there were 6-7 people in the kitchen, everything seemed very chaotic. I understand it was busy, but the kitchen definitely needs better planning and organization.

Expensive food, less quantity. Samis resturant which is adjacent to it has much better rates, food quality, taste and quantity.

Everything is perfect. The staff, the food and the atmosphere.

Since 2007 we have only eaten Adana here. I can definitely recommend Adana.

Since 2007 we have only eaten Adana here. I can definitely recommend Adana.

Worst meal ever, The sauces were made with water

Good weight and tightly closed.

Last time I ate there again was simply delicious 😋 I recommend the chicken skewers just perfect

If there had been zero stars I would have given no stars at all, just a catastrophe from the staff to the food, everything.

I ordered a normal kebab plate there and ate it. Had to wait a long time for service despite being advised. That 18€ for the kebab plate and 4€ ice cream! Food was good but the price is outrageous for the plate and service on the terrace can be forgotten! Never again.

The ambience is traditionally furnished. The staff are nice but I can only speak for yesterday's visit: We reserved a large table for 7 people and it was over 33 degrees outside. There was air conditioning, but there was none of it in the space allocated to us, so it was really uncomfortably warm. Otherwise, the food was solid and was served very quickly after ordering.

Waiting too long for the waiter

Good kebab with cheese, you notice the higher quality ingredients, and not just in the price. Overall, it's still not 100% my taste. For that price it was definitely my first and last time.

Best Turkish restaurant in downtown Karlsruhe

The food was very good, but until you took care of the toilet, the rest was fine

Food and service top! The ambience and interior are a bit run down, otherwise great!

The food is tasty, portions are HUGE and the service is very friendly!

The bread they give for döner would break a stone if you hit it. The ingredients inside were only worth 4 Euros, not 9 Euros. In Germany, where an energy drink costs 1.25 Euros, how come 1 regular water costs 3 Euros? I don't condone it.

I say with everything he makes 3 ingredients

This is the place I always go to, we ate delicious food.

Very tasty food! Friendly staff. THANKS!

If you're looking for a thinly topped standard kebab for an above-average €9, you can grab it.

Piro restaurant in Karlsruhe city best restaurant food

Large selection of dishes, the quality was very good. The staff is friendly and courteous.

Long-time customer, unfortunately we got up today and left before we even ordered. With each visit the price seems to increase by €2. Favorite restaurant lost 😒

We enjoyed going there often. One of the best in Karlsruhe, where the quality doesn't diminish. But what kind of prices are these?? We were really shocked about it. Service is good but it depends on the waiter. Unfortunately there wasn't any on House Cay either. Ambience good but could be freshened up.

Das Essen ist ok nichts besonderes teilweise sehr fettig. Für die Portionen und die Qualität aber zu teuer einfach nicht selbst fair bewertet. Gibt ja über 100alternativen in Karlsruhe zum Glück

Yufka very bad. The meat has a strange aftertaste

Good doner kebab! A kebab that is still really warm when served.

One of the best in Karlsruhe. For 10 years: same food, same service, great atmosphere.

I was in the Piro again after a long time and I suspect that the previous owners have changed since none of the people I knew were there. Unfortunately I ate the worst pide of my life here even though it was always great. The minced meat on it tasted very poor quality, unfortunately I found it very disgusting and extremely greasy. We don't come here anymore...

Meine Mami hat bei euch heute Pide gegessen und ich soll unbedingt eine Bewertung lassen! Sie isst hauptsächlich draußen nur Pide und bis heute war es das beste überhaupt!! Gute Geschäfte und liebe Grüße aus Ludwigsburg.

Yufka Döner 9 Euro -> Preis-Leistung stimmt leider nicht mehr. Schade !

das essen war viel schlechter als erwartet, es hat keine farben und ist sehr fettig, und zwar so fettig dass das essen nicht einmal mehr genießbar war. das essen ist für die qualität überteuert sowohl die getränke!! werde das restaurant definitiv kein zweites mal besuchen und lasst dies eine warnung für andere kunden sein.

Egal was man isst, es ist immer sehr gut. Hohe Qualität, Preise gerechtfertigt
