I've been there several times now and always have something to eat and drink. The food is very tasty and there are absolutely no complaints. The portions are quite generous for the reasonable prices. The staff is very, very friendly and rem...

It was delicious; we tried the Saitan döner, as well as falafel and the standard döner. Everything was great, and the service was very friendly!

Metropol Döner Kebab at Henriettenplatz – fantastic! I eat there every time I'm in Berlin. Absolutely delicious, a large sandwich with plenty of doner meat and salad – though the meat is definitely the main ingredient. The staff is always...

Service with a smile, even late at night.

I can't understand the negative reviews; perhaps I was lucky or it was my food choice. The staff was very friendly, and I haven't had such a delicious dürüm in a long time (especially considering the generous portion size)! Thank you so muc...

UNFRIENDLY! Rude staff. You're never greeted here, and often treated rudely. The doner kebab tastes mediocre at best. BEST TO AVOID!!

Completely disrespectful service
1★ · 2026-05-11
The most unfriendly kebab shop I've ever experienced. Once I was there with crutches and he refused to serve me, probably because he thought I was homeless. I just had a few empty bottles for groceries, but you can obviously tell from some...
Inconsistent food quality

The quality varies so drastically. Rarely good, sometimes okay, but today it was inedible. The Turkish pizza completely fell apart, hardly any sauce, just not good. I gave a €2 tip and they didn't make any effort at all. It's a real shame....
1★ · 2023-07-03
The service was abysmal. The doner kebab was cold, and they often put old, stale meat into the doner or the doner box. There was very little meat in the doner box, and it was crammed full of salad… I would give zero stars if I could.
High prices
Several recent reviews mention that prices have risen to €7 or more while portions have decreased.

I used to go there very often, but I'm simply not willing to pay €7 for a doner kebab, and nobody can tell me that the prices for doner ingredients have increased by 100% since 2022, the supermarket says otherwise.

Worst Döner in town. Service is super friendly, which is why I can’t give 1 star but the food is inedible. Fries are fine. Also outrageous pricing 7€ for a kebab.
Good for
- Late-night snacks
- Vegetarian options like seitan and falafel
Avoid if
- You are sensitive to rude service
- You expect consistent food quality
Recent pattern — Newer reviews increasingly mention rising prices (reaching around €7) coupled with smaller portions and persistent complaints regarding unfriendly service and inconsistent food quality.

The quality of the doner kebab, the friendliness of the staff, and the portion sizes have been steadily declining for many months now. There are significantly better alternatives in the immediate vicinity.

Super friendly staff! They were still in great spirits at 11 pm and the doner kebab was absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!

Absolutely awful! They put onions on the doner even after you explain that you have an intolerance, and if they notice you've been drinking alcohol, they want to charge you double. Just terrible.

My favorite döner kebab in all of Berlin, hot take I know. The döner is truly 12/10, vegan options available!!! The people who work there are ALWAYS so lovely and welcoming! No matter what time it is, they won't let you down.
