But…read morewhile out in Spandau I saw they had another location and since it was lunch time I figured lets see if the other location is good! We tried one of the Turkish wines, which was a nice dry red, like most Turkish wines I've had. We also got the hot mezze plater, the humus, and the Adana Kebab, which was advertised as spicy. The plater of appetizers was fine but nothing special. Although the egg plant had a great grilled taste to it, but the rest of the items were serviceable but ho hum. The adana kebab was very good, and came with a salad. However it wasn't that spicy, but if you put some of the chili paper they grilled and put on the plate then the spice showed up. Well cooked, tender, tasty overall. The hummus was excellent. A big plus was the fresh flat bread they appear to make to order. That alone was worth a star in my good. Service was good, a little pricy for lunch but an enjoyable time.

I am not quite sure what the difference between homey Turkish food and what is not. I am going to…read moreassume homey entails more focus on the food and ingredients rather than the presentation and other things. One glance at this place and it certainly looks homey if not rather like a one pot, buffet, fast food kind of style. There was counter full of prepared food in the back and you can pick and choose your meal from thy selection. No there's nothing created here a la minute but the price kind of reflects that. While I can't comment on the authenticity of the food, I can say without a doubt it is tasty...for the most part. Everything does indeed taste "homey" as every dish is sort of a mis-mash of different vegetables and meats in a consistent sauce. By that I mean most of the dishes have similar sauces a tastes quite similar despite it having different ingredients. The rice is a nicely prepared with fantastic texture and just the right amount of squeakiness to them all the while still soft and pillowy. The chicken is sightly dry but very nicely compensated with the great sauce that it's bathed in. Sadly this meal wasn't quite as memorable as I had hope for. Unlike the Turkish cuisines I have had in the past there wasn't one or more dishes I would recommend of you must order. Everything tastes good -- like a every day good kind of meal mom used to prepare.

"Wait, so what's the difference between lahmacun and gözleme?" my boyfriend asks me as we navigate…read morethe slushy sidewalks of Perleberger Straße. "Lahmacun is Turkish pizza, gözleme is like a Turkish quesadilla." "And we're going to a place called Güllü Lahmacun to eat...gözleme?" "Yes," I said, doubting whether this was indeed going to be the right restaurant. The first time I lived in Berlin, a friend of mine took me to this little restaurant tucked away on a random street corner whose name I could not for the life of me remember -- all I knew was that only women worked behind the counter, somewhat strange for this area. Thanks to some Internet sleuthing, I found out the name of the place and decided to go back for old times' sake. In the years since I was last there, not much has changed. We were warmly greeted by a woman tending to the large, decorative electric grill that sits in the front window and waited our turn to order. We ordered a cheese-and-spinach gözleme for €2.50 and took a stand in the corner to wait for her to prepare our food. The only one working, she ripped a chunk of dough from a pile sitting on a counter in a large plastic bag and put it through an automatic roller to get it to the perfect thinness. "Scharf?" she asked me, the only other woman in the restaurant, with a smile. Of course. Slowly but deliberately, she laid out the fillings, folded the dough over and set it on the grill, brushing it with some fat to give it that perfect gleam. After waiting 15 minutes -- nothing moves quickly here -- she sliced the gözleme up into squares and piled it on a to-go plate for us to take with us on our way to a beer festival a few U-Bahn stations away. The best gözleme I've ever had? Not really, and the price is a bit steep -- I've had better, bigger portions for less than €2. But for a relaxed atmosphere and kind service, it's a sure bet. And for that, we certainly plan on heading back next time we're in the neighborhood.

We actually went out of our way to find this place. We'd heard that the Turkish food in Berlin was…read morefantastic and this restaurant had good reviews, so we came here for lunch. We were not disappointed! The waiter/owner(?) was very pleasant. He did not speak English, but with the help of a lady sitting next to us, we ordered exactly what we wanted. (By the way, they do have menus; you have to ask for them.) My husband and I each got a hefeweizen--0,5 liters, which was a bit too much for me, but oh well. My husband got the lamb kabob and I got the beef patties. Each plate came with salad, rice, vegetables, and condiments. The lamb came with grilled bread. The meats were juicy and flavorful. The rice pilaf was excellent: fluffy and well seasoned. And the yogurt sauce... So good! We ended the meal with espresso and Turkish black tea. It was a lot of food, so I don't think we'll be hungry again for awhile. Whether you are in the neighborhood or make a special trip, this restaurant is definitely worth a look!

Oh wow, Berlin is know for its an international city filled with immigrants, amazing architecture,…read moreunbelievable history, delish chocolates, but one hidden secret is their amazing Turkish food. It's at times better than Istanbul. It's a very much hole in the wall and I didn't expect much because it had small reviews. Let me say, this is probably one of the tastiest and juiciest restaurants in Berlin right now. Once you enter in, a tall lanky man makes eye contact but doesn't speak a word. The service was always great and the food arrived on time. Every time you ordered he would just nod his head and the food would arrive. Let's start with the basics, the hummus was silky drenched in smooth olive oil with fresh chickpeas on top. It's so fresh that it would melt in your mouth. That combination with the fresh soft crisp bread is heaven. Service was impeccable. Food was grilled fresh from the start and we had the juiciest of kabobs. Your taste buds will go on over drive! Oh my god, we got the Ali Nazek plate. Without a doubt one of the best kabob dishes on the western hemisphere. It's minced Lamb meat,on top of olive oil, yogurt and garlic. At first I said, what a strange combination, But oh my god what a delish combination. The food, the fresh made bread, the hummus all melted in our mouth. The freshness of the ingredient is unparalleled here. My partner ordered the pilic sis kabop which are delightful lite chicken cubes which complemented the lamb. For desert, some nice Turkish tea and coffee with a thin crispy wafered Baklava. This might be your new favorite Turkish addiction in town!!
