German Doner Kebab Reviews Summary

Food Quality

Pros:

• "Great fresh tasting food, good portion for the extra meat options."
• "Once again the kebab was great as well as the cheesy fries they have."
• "Succulent meat and chips cooked to perfection."
• "Hand crafted kebab, on unique sesame-seasoned flat bread, generously filled with meat of your choice - delicious."
• "The Original Doner Kebab on the menu is a delicious shawarma kebab either chicken, beef or veg wrapped in a baked bread sandwich."
• "The sauces are great and include garlic special chilli and yoghurt."
• "Great salad which includes caramelised onions, sliced red cabbage and lettuce."
• "Delicious kebab, super helpful staff, I found them by chance and it was worth it."

Cons:

• "I love to eat German Doner Kebab very often, but my opinion has changed ever since I ordered a doner box with fries and found a dead fly in my food."
• "Ridiculous portion, almost no meat, no sauce. The bread was cold and food itself was cold too."
• "Food is great but can be seen as pricy."
• "Regular portion looked like kids meal and large was the same sized box with few extra pieces."
• "Food was not hot and seemed to have been rushed. Tiny portion of meat in the wrap."
• "The donner itself was dry and bland but the sauces really made the difference."
• "Doner meat was very nice however the portion size is measly for the extortionate price."
• "The food was bland and pricey, especially the £3 lambuchin which was basically a pancake with no seasonings."

Customer Service

Pros:

• "The manager was especially accommodating to some of the dietary changes I needed to make."
• "Delicious food with amazing customer service."
• "Amazing staff but less than desirable clientele (including myself)."
• "The manager made things right for us after having a not so good experience."
• "I always come here as this is close to where I live. Staff are really nice especially Suf, he is very friendly and welcoming."
• "This place supports Israeli IDF terrorism. Profit is more important to the owners."
• "I ordered a chicken panini and it didn't taste right. Staff were nice though."
• "I waited at the counter for over 5 min while the staff looked at me. No one said anything or even recognised my presence."

Cons:

• "Average service, even though I found out before paying the bill that I qualified for a 15% discount, they won't redo the order for me to benefit."
• "The Uber Eats app did not offer me my usual option of separating the salad from the Kebab."
• "I went when it was rush hour day during eat out to help out with family."
• "Totally disappointing. I ordered through Uber Eats app expecting to have an amazing take away night, but instead, I had to cook something else."
• "I ordered a chicken burger. Delivery on time but the chicken was raw."
• "The delivery driver turned up very late, I watched him at my gate turn up then turn away for some reason."
• "Food was not hot and seemed to have been rushed. Place was full with patrons making noise over nothing. Service was slow."
• "I ordered my food last Sunday around 6:30. An hour later when the order should have arrived, I get an emailed receipt saying my order has been delivered."

Portion Size and Pricing

Pros:

• "Good portions and tasty."
• "Me and my brother will be back for sure. Overall 10/10."
• "A meal deal including fries and a drink around £7. Good value and very filling."
• "Have had a great meal, I have had it in a couple of different places but this one made my day, cause of the great service of Sufian and as well his assistance… the meat portion was good as well… will strongly recommend to all of my friends."
• "The meals sound simple and may lack in quantity but believe me when I say the taste is better than your typical kebab shops."
• "Overall was okay here...one big plus point is the decor and ambience of the place was very good however the customer service was okay neither friendly or rude."
• "I would strongly recommend this business to anyone who enjoys prime quality doner meat."
• "Ordered an delivery with 100g extra beef, looks like it was 100g in total. The boxes started to be way too big for the kebabs they put in it."

Cons:

• "This is the second time we came to this shop (Stepney Green) and we’re more than disappointed. Last time we noticed that here the amount and the boxes were way less than half full."
• "The portion sizes are so tight its a total rip off. You couldn't even expect a child to be full on the amount they put inside their doner boxes."
• "Food was okay but not the best in my opinion. I have to say I had better donner kebab. Prices are reasonably higher."
• "Portion was extremely small even though ordered more meat! This place ain't good as it used to be! Needs to be monitored on the quality and quantity more!!"
• "My only issue is the staff are obviously unfriendly and has put me off coming here and Stratford. This is an exception to the Ilford branch which is 5 stars."
• "Ordered large got a regular total rip off also very small portion of chips at least they had real coke 12.50 cost for donner meal with cheese bites is it worth it?? Its not that great and also I don't think its german!"
• "I really enjoy the multigrain (KCal?) variant of their Original Doner Kebab. What separates GDK from other kebab joints is the delicious and crunchy bread the meats are served in."
• "No longer happy !!! Last year the quality, quantities, and customer service were much much better, today the large kebab filling lately is just salad in, the little of meat added has no taste at all or what so ever the nacho cheese tastes like water."
