Restaurant Orient Hof in Köln

Excellent address, one of the best kebab sandwiches! And the service is very welcoming! 🎯top

The food quality and hygiene were really poor. The potatoes, salads, and veggies were clearly old, and I’m guessing the rest of the food wasn’t fresh either. Plus, they only accept cash but don’t tell you that upfront, you’ll find out when it’s time to pay and have to run around looking for an ATM. Honestly, one of the worst experiences I’ve had. Wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Even 1 star feels too generous!

Yes, I have to choose from this Personal Erlebt. I would like to have a new car in your restaurant and park it with your own hands. Als ich wieder rauskam, war mein Auto hinten mit einem Schlüssel zerkratzt. This war has nothing to do with it - now it is the same. This war comes quickly in the car! So this whole thing is more modern and unprofessional. It's hard to find anything you need to know about it. Don't worry! Honestly, I've rarely seen employees this rude. I parked my car across from the restaurant and went in for lunch. When I got out, I found the car had been scratched on the back with the key. There was no one outside except the restaurant employees, and I'm certain one of them did it. The car was almost new! This was disgusting and completely disrespectful. May God take revenge on him, and I will never return to that place again.

The best restaurant I've tried in Germany

Guys, I ordered two regular meals and they put 10 appetizer boxes with them. I swear I'm telling the truth. I've never seen such generosity in this restaurant in my entire life. The service was excellent. The food was very, very good. This is the second time, and it's not a coincidence. May God bless your livelihood.

A nice shop, delicious food, and I thought the apprentice, Andul, was very good. He did a great job.

Comida incrível com música árabe ambiente!!! Porém, não aceita cartão, pagamento apenas em dinheiro ☺️ há uma grande diversidade de comidas e um valor mais em conta se comparado a rua comercial no centro.

The food was very good and the guys, may God bless them, treated me well.

Everything was delicious, would go again

It was very tasty. Very nice staff.

Who knew the best shawarma in the world would be hiding in a tiny shop in Köln? 🇩🇪 I must say, this shawarma spot is hands down the best shawarma I’ve ever had in my life. I’ve traveled the world and eaten shawarma across the Middle East and shockingly, the best one is tucked away in a little shop in Köln 😬 The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Perfectly seasoned, juicy meat wrapped in warm, soft bread, with just the right amount of garlic sauce and crunch from the pickles. Every bite was a flavor bomb. And don’t even get me started on the fries their version is so unique. Sliced potatoes with a perfectly balanced seasoning that makes them addictive. I could eat a whole tray on their own. If you’re in Köln and love shawarma this place is a must. I’d give it 10 stars if I could!

I know everyone is hyping this restaurant. However, the meat wasn't cooked all the way through, and you could taste it too much. The price is really great. I'd go again and maybe try something vegetarian.

The food is not up to standard and there is a delay in the order. The tomato tabbouleh is spoiled 👎🏻

This place is proof that you can overlook a lot if the food is good. Unfortunately, the service is unfriendly and rather indifferent. The ambiance is more reminiscent of a shisha bar in Syria and hardly caters to German customers. With friendlier staff and a bit more style, this place would easily be an insider tip for all of Germany! Nevertheless: for the fantastic food, reasonable prices, and generous portions, I give it 4 stars.⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

The food was ice cold, the service was terrible, and the restrooms looked like something out of a horror movie. "I've never experienced such unfriendly service, never again!" -The 'habjin' was like shoe soles, and the fries were soggy. Absolute rip-off!

Amazing place to eat .Employees very friendly and food is delicious .Prices are very good . It was my first time here and I will be back here 100% Thx a lot for amazing time to great team

My favorite place in ny neighborhood for a dinner or chicken Donner

Good food and very large portions at a low price, sometimes it's better to take one plate for two people

If I may give a grade I would give -100000 Very unfriendly staff especially a girl there who was really irritated and threw our plates on the table as if we were animals. When we finished eating we had to get up immediately and they took our drinks while they were still half full. Moreover the food was super dirty, old and tough. They do not accept pin and it was not clear that we have to pay with cash!!! must be illegal work. So I really do not recommend eating here.

Incredibly delicious food, superbly seasoned, and the meat cooked to perfection! If the waiter would only smile once in a while, we'd eat here every day!

Great service, great prices, top food, always happy to come back.

Unfortunately, I wish we hadn't gone to this restaurant. We traveled a long way and were shocked. The cleanliness was lacking; there were crumbs on the chairs, and the tables, as well as the cutlery on them, looked greasy. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to our expectations either. The biggest shock of all, however, was that dozens of trash cans were brought up from the restaurant's basement and then placed in front of the restaurant. Through the large window, you were forced to watch the whole spectacle while eating.

The food is very salty!! What a shame! Cleanliness isn't what it should be!

The service was very fast, and the staff were extremely friendly, polite, and accommodating. However, the tabbouleh wasn't fresh at all. The pickled cucumbers were dry and tough instead of crisp and fresh—as if they had been sitting out of the jar for days. The rice was obviously reheated: some of it was cold and hard, with an unpleasant taste, while the other part was warm and acceptable. The garlic cream was a bit small on the plate. The crispy chicken tasted good, but unfortunately, it wasn't fresh at all. I personally didn't like the taste of the grilled chicken—that's subjective, of course. The shop itself is clean and tidy, the staff smile and are friendly to the customers.

Simply fantastic! The best Arabic restaurant I've ever visited. The food was fresh, authentic, and incredibly delicious – the mezze and grilled dishes were especially delicious. The service was very friendly and attentive; you immediately feel welcome. The ambiance is also cozy and lovingly decorated in an oriental style. The price-performance ratio is absolutely fair. A clear recommendation for anyone who wants to experience authentic Arabic cuisine. I'll definitely be back!

Very top best shawarma ladem in all of cologne I recommend you go there everything is made the original way in Syria top food everything is 5 stars

The food is very, very poor. The chicken is very bad. It has no taste, I swear. It just looks good. I mean, bring a chicken and cook it at home and put it in the oven. It will come out even better, I swear.

The cleanliness of the place is not good

The kebabs with potato slices along with Hummus and salad were great.

Very tasty food and great, fast service. I visited Cologne and explored the entire city—this restaurant is the nicest I've found here. Unfortunately, they only accept cash payments.

Honest food, fair prices, good music, and you'll definitely be full. Always a pleasure to come here!

Very tasty food. One portion is enough for 1.5 people. We'd gladly return.

Very good food, the falafel and Halloumi are great. The portion size is big, so make sure you are hungry!

I came to order a shawarma sandwich, and they told me they only had meals, even though the meal comes as a sandwich with its accessories. I also ordered vine leaves, and as soon as I asked the employee, he told me that this is their job. Unfortunately, the vine leaves were canned and tasted really bad. As for cleanliness: Everything was slippery, meaning the tables, chairs, and even the bathroom floors were full of mud. There were no toilet papers, and there weren't even any tissues or anything to dry your hands. I'm giving my rating only one star.

I ordered shawarma for 5.50 euros. The bread is crispy and authentically Syrian, with fries. It's delicious 😋 😋 ... They could work on the cleanliness a bit 😉

Delicious Syrian food, especially the shawarma, was excellent, and the prices are fair. Unfortunately, the air was stuffy, the room wasn't ventilated, the tables weren't completely clean, and hygiene standards could be better. The waiter was inattentive and forgot parts of the order. Also, only cash payments are accepted – that's outdated. In a country with a stable system, you should be able to pay fairly and transparently – including by card.

A little insider tip. Tucked away behind the shopping mall. Super delicious. Everything is fresh, large portions. Very authentic.

Love this place and I'll definitely come back

Very good food and atmosphere. The personnel is very friendly.

Very fast service of very great food.

A definite recommendation. Decent portions, delicious food, and friendly staff.

I've never waited this long for a delivery; there's only one stop between us. I've been here for an hour. I'm waiting for three kebabs.

Very good food. Friendly staff. Nice music.

Affordable and authentic Syrian food in the heart of the city, not far from Kaufhof. Huge quantities, enough for two people. Fresh and delicious. Highly recommended.

The meat is very salty, but other dishes are quite tasty. I am changing the review to 1 star, since the owner deletes them from Google if you put less than 4 stars

Very, very excellent restaurant. The food is delicious and blessed. If you pass by, you must try it. You won't regret it. Chicken with rice, the taste is amazing. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The price is excellent. They have shawarma, chicken, falafel, grilled meats, pickles, baklava sweets, and soft drinks.

May God bless you. The treatment is so nice. May God grant you sustenance.

The food is the best in the world. When I ate Menu 13, I felt like I was in Syria. The meat is top quality and tastes amazing. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who lives in or is visiting Cologne. The staff is also very friendly and responsive to your needs.

Food very tasty very much and super taste, service very friendly also give explanations. and good and good buy definitely do it once

I'm very impressed with this restaurant. I discovered the place a few years ago and have been coming here often since then. When you eat it, you can tell that the recipe comes from the family. Love is an ingredient in the recipe. The delicious shawarma, in particular, stands out. Try a shawarma from Orienthof and be amazed. I would definitely recommend the place!

The food is average but the restaurant is very dirty

Excellent food! Very delicious and well priced. Portion is almost for two people! Service is very good and atmosphere a bit load but okay. Would come back again!

Very tasty food and great ambience.

I ordered a grill meal on the basis that it would be a decent meal, but unfortunately the experience was disappointing. The price is approximately 16 euros for 4 skewers Soft kebab and hummus, with cold potatoes! The quantity is very small for the price, and the service was not friendly. But I only give two stars because the grilling flavor was good, and this is the only thing that was acceptable in the experience

Very good - would love to come back :)

I love this store, all my work colleagues have already taken here. Everyone excited

The food was really tasty and the portions were very generous. The staff was very friendly and extremely generous. I felt completely comfortable and would love to come back!

Very friendly staff. The food was super delicious! The Orient Hof is a bit hidden but definitely worth a visit.

Best falafel in all of Cologne!! Great restaurant, extremely good price/performance ratio. The falafel are extremely tasty, as are the hummus and eggplant cream.

The service was very quick and the food was so tasty.

Avoid this restaurant at all costs! I have rarely been so disappointed by a restaurant. As soon as you enter, you are struck by the omnipresent dirt: the tables are sticky, the toilets are simply filthy. The food is like the rest: inedible. The dishes are excessively salty, poorly cooked, and frankly disgusting. On top of that, the restaurant is full of cameras, which film customers without any warning. They don't even accept credit card payments and you're surprised by that when you pay! As for the service, it's the worst I've ever seen: rude waiters, not a smile, nothing. I do not recommend this place. I'll leave you a photo of the dishes that we didn't finish.

The food is excellent and the service is more than excellent 👍🏻

It's very disgusting, it's really a shame that Sukru restaurant is better. It means that there is no cleanliness, no taste, no color in our lives, we won't be good people.

The food was very good and the service was fast and good

Food always tastes good but unfortunately it is usually full

You will eat like a king, get ready! The dishes really come a lot of food, I loved it

Very tasty food, nice staff and short waiting times. I always come to eat here. Price performance top

Super inexpensive and delicious

Food wasn't the best either. People are. Not sweet could definitely be better and wouldn't come again

The worst restaurant in my life that I eat shawarma with is a whole sandwich before, but you ask for it to be heated. A sandwich that tastes disgusting to the psyches of the garbage workers to eat dirty rubbish, with food, bathroom, and workers. I do not recommend it, knowing that all the people who come to be in a market and nearby come and eat it there, but go and eat it wherever it is and do not come to it. This is a restaurant that has to get drunk.

The best and tastiest restaurant I've been to in a long time. Service was top and the food was very tasty.

I came from the Netherlands and I wanted to try their food, to be honest, it is better than most restaurants in the Netherlands and the reception is nice.

We went to them before the last day of Ramadan. They pretended that there were no tables, although we saw them. He was trying to convince people to take a safari. Later, we found out because the food is for kebabs. In order for the story to be revealed, or the safari food would be stale and spoiled. We took a safari. I don't know how they calculate the bill or anything else. The amount was 120 euros. We threw all the food in the trash. It was all stale, reheated, and very salty, more than you can imagine. The shish kebab was not cooked properly. The kebab was disgusting. The chicken was half raw and half cooked. The kibbeh was burnt on one side and not cooked on the other. I mean, I regret it a lot. We came about a year and a half ago. The situation was different and the food was good, but now it is the worst restaurant and the worst food in my life. It doesn't deserve a star.

The ground is very oily, the table and spoons/forks were disgusting they were not disinfected or washed same for the table the food was amazing, the toilet/washroom was worse it was disgusting and nog sanitized

Once and it will not happen again, even if it was a quarter of a star, I would not fall short and put it down..

Their response is quick and the service is great. The cleanliness of the restaurant is amazing.

Me and my buddy found ass hair in the shawurma. We'll never go there again. They don't greet people when they go in. Too tight. No paper to dry your hands. Dirty chairs. Toilet is horrible.

Unfortunately there was a hair, it gave me a stomach ache omg I felt sick 🤢 eating without shit isn't clean at all,

One of the best restaurants. Syrians are one of the best people.

An upscale restaurant with very good service and nice treatment beyond what you can imagine. May God bless you and your family

Unfortunately, the food isn't that great, the meat wasn't quite cooked, so the service was super unfriendly and cleared the table while we were eating and threw us out. The ambience isn't great either, it's super cramped and there's hardly any legroom. I really can't recommend this store at all!!!!!!! Super dissatisfied!!!!!!

Best Food ;). I just love the shawarma here

Very very tasty and nice people

Super tasty food, nice service, the decor is a bit simpler but functional. We always look forward to eating here!

Very good food and very tasty 10 out of 10

The food was truly great, one pf the best falafel places of my life. When I entered the restaurant was supposed to be closed but they still welcomed us and let us eat at one of the tables. The falafel dish with potatoes and hummus was amazing, and quite affordable. Very much recommended.

I used to enjoy eating here but from today on I am boycotting this restaurant. Reasons: 1- The whole store is very dirty and greasy. 2- Toilet is a disaster. 3- Unfortunately the food tastes very bad compared to before.

Discovered today by accident. We ate deliciously and were served friendly. I'll be back.

It is one of the best Arabic shops I have eaten at, and the youth are the greatest and in my eyes and head

Here was very bad and the atmosphere was nd very good and they didn't have good service.

The tabouleh was good, the chicken didnt taste clean. The floor is oily and slippery, the bathroom is worse than.... well not the chicken.

Very, very bad. I swear I mean, the food is not worth eating. The hostel is cold and the restaurant is dirty

Very very tasty. Been a regular customer for 3 years and really satisfied. I can only recommend⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Incredibly delicious shawarma plate. Fresh skewers, crispy potato chips, everything perfect, I'm happy that I discovered the shop!

The best shawarma in Cologne and the garlic sauce is a dream

The best Syrian food in Cologne

Always my pleasure Very tasty food and friendly service I can only recommend it

I absolutely loved my visit to this restaurant! The atmosphere was very inviting and cozy. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. The food was simply delicious – fresh, tasty and perfectly prepared. Always my pleasure

The best shawarma kebab sandwich I have eaten in Europe, the best taste without any exaggeration

The food is very good and clean, there are many who say the restaurant is dirty, but on the contrary it looks like it is traditional Arabic, I bring all the Romanians here 🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴
