Food Quality

Pros:

  • "The OG mixed kebab I had was delicious and a really different offering to what's available nearby."
  • "The bread is like a crusty bap with great crunch."
  • "One of the best I’ve had. It is not greasy and when you take a bite you don’t have sauce dripping or pouring out of the wrap."
  • "A very well put together kebab with, what tastes like, fine ingredients."
  • "The meat is juicy, and the sauces add a delightful kick. A tasty stop for kebab enthusiasts in the Toon!"
  • "The food was absolutely delicious, came quickly, hot and reasonably priced. It's proper kebab meat very nice."
  • "The spring rolls were really nice. Crispy, well filled and a lovely addition."
  • "The meat is on point, the single thing that I would add would be some veggies, like corn, zucchini etc."

Cons:

  • "The doners were okay, reasonably well filled with salad and both meats but blimey they were dry."
  • "I had a Doner crunch burger with almost no meat and the sauce didn't taste nice at all."
  • "The chips were well cooked and crispy but the curry powder was incredibly salty."
  • "The food is lovely but it was genuinely the dirtiest most disgusting fast food restaurant I've ever been in."
  • "This is one of the best restaurants in Newcastle. The food are very delicious and different."
  • "Food is nice, chicken donner was good but little to no sauce, but things like chilli cheese bites are exact same as BK and they’re cheaper at BK."
  • "Lovely food. The Original Doner Kebab mixed meat was lovely."
  • "The toasted bread they use for the OG Kebab was great, but I have to say the rest was very underwhelming."

Service and Staff

Pros:

  • "Charlotte who was behind the counter serving was beautiful with a gorgeous smile. Super friendly and helpful."
  • "There's a great range of drinks here (no alcohol)."
  • "The staff were very polite and helpful. We took a buzzer sat down with our drinks and waited for our food."
  • "Great tasting food, service needs a bit of work as she nearly didn't give me my second main for free even when I showed her the poster."
  • "The staff were incredible. I visited with a friend who has a number of medical problems. They accommodated the changes he requested to his kebab with pleasure."
  • "The staff have been very helpful, polite and all around pleasant."
  • "The service was super quick, taking a little over five minutes between ordering and the food being delivered to our table."
  • "The staff are super friendly and helpful, the food is amazing, the place is nice and well maintained."

Cons:

  • "The food came straight away however it seemed it like it had been made earlier and sitting there."
  • "The tables were dirty and messy. The service was a mess compared to when then first open."
  • "Your food was good again but there wasn't any soap or toilet tissue at man toilet."
  • "I ordered the 2 Boss box meals, one with original Donner kebab and one Lahmacun Wrap."
  • "The food was ok. The staff at the restaurant were uninterested and unfriendly."
  • "The service was a little slow but the staff were very polite and helpful."
  • "The food came within a couple of minutes. My wife straight away pointed out her kebab was cold."
  • "The staff were really trying hard though, so good for them."

Price and Value

Pros:

  • "On Tuesdays there's a great 2 for 1 deal on mains but be aware this finishes sharp at midnight."
  • "It is reasonably priced I think..... There are lots of options with bread etc including various sides."
  • "Taste is really good and different then traditional Turkish doner kebab. Good variety but quantity is not sufficient."
  • "Reasonably pricing. Ample sitting spaces and easy access from station or central Newcastle."
  • "Bit pricey, for a kebab, but worth it."
  • "Good variety of meal options with different sauces, meat, drinks. The meal price is according to the good quality of the food."
  • "The food is really really nice but the service is horrendous."
  • "I love a German doner so was happy to see one open in Newcastle."

Cons:

  • "It's not particularly cheap either at about £11 per meal compared to around a fiver at my local Shawarma Grill for a wrap and chips."
  • "I was eager to try this place after hearing seeing the hype, and it lived up to it and more, amazing food, great portions, fast and efficient service, I went back 24hrs later to eat again, it's that good."
  • "First time of trying German Donna kebab Newcastle and will probably be our last as well. Now the negative….over priced and charged extra for all kinds of add on’s."
  • "Paid for extra meat on their main sandwich, it had nothing in it , very disappointing , tasted more like sausage the donor meat , would hate to see what it looked like originally without the extra , far to overpriced and not even nice."
  • "Food is nice but staff isn't very well traind In result standers aren't maintained, to much waiting time for a fast food."
  • "I Ordered for 13 pounds box 16/11/2023 around 9 pm at my table , using an app.Received kebab almost without meat .meat was overburned, crusty..service also not impressing..no hi , no enjoy..just put on a table and went."
  • "The low-calorie kebab was really nice. The salad was really good and fresh and I liked the cabbage was very finely chopped; the bread was very good too. It was a little expensive at just under £10 with an Appletiser, but overall a great taste."
  • "The meat is on point, the single thing that I would add would be some veggies, like corn, zucchini etc."
