I truly felt that the food taste and quality was what I experienced in Ankara and Istanbul. I had Ciftlik Güvec and my wife had the similar veggie dish. Our server suggested we get one side of flat bread and one of garlic potatoes so we could share and try both. Those potatoes were exceptional especially with the taziki-like sauce. If you like real Turkish food, go to Ararat. Signed, the couple from California

The staff were all very friendly (looks to be a family establishment). We were in search for Iskender (not all places have it) but we didn't see it on the menu (though there were plenty of other tasty sounding choices). Our server was very helpful and pointed out their special. Their version is made from ground meat instead of the more traditional Döner. This was even better! And the tomato sauce and yogurt were not all runny, which was also a plus. All in all, if you're up for a delightful dinner experience and some excellent food, I highly recommend a stop by. It was also easy walk from the Nr.5 tram stop at Sanderring.

I learned while visiting Mannheim that the city has an enormous Turkish population, and therefore it has dozens of Turkish restaurants. Uzun Tasfirini is acclaimed as one of the best spots in the "Little Istanbul" neighborhood, specializing in pides. Pides (pronounced "pea-days") are the Turkish equivalent to pizza. This snack food is a large flatbread topped with ground lamb, tomatoes, and spices, which bakes in a wood-fired oven for less than 10 minutes. It is then cut into squares and served with peppers, parsley, and lemons. You assemble the peppers and parsley yourself, squeezing lemon over your pide before you fold it up and indulge in this pizza treat. It's a simple, delicious dish that you can't miss out on if you're in Mannheim or are feeling homesick for a slice of pizza.

If you find yourself in Mannheim, you can't do better than Uzun. This small place specializes in…read moreTurkish pides, all of which are freshly baked in a huge wood-fired oven. A fresh, filling meal including a drink will run you about 6 Euros, which is hard to beat. To start, order the mercimek corbasi soup, a lentil soup made fresh in house. It comes with fresh baked Turkish flat bread, lemon and spices. For the main course, there's a variety of pides to choose from, but my favorite is the spinach & feta -- freshly chopped bright green spinach mixed with creamy cheese, engulfed in homemade Turkish bread, with generous brushed butter on top, crisped to perfection. Heaven is a place on earth with you.

Perhaps it was not the best döner I've ever had, but it was still better than average IMHO. Small…read more(standard) size was 3.80 €, and large one was 4.80 € (photo). The small probably was enough for me, but the large one really filled me up. Serving was generous. Service was very good and quick. The chef did not speak English, but we managed ordering what we wanted by pointing at the menu. Speaking of which, the menu was quite extensive unlike most other döner kebap shops I'm accustomed to, but I thought combination plates were somewhat pricey. I usually order Lamacun (Turkish pizza wrap), but it was over 6 €, so I decided not to get it (normally around 5 €, but it is a touristy spot). I was quite satisfied with what we had for our quick lunch especially under current COVID health protection ordinance...everything has to be "to go." We sat on a bench at quiet Hofgarten and enjoyed our döner kebap on a very pleasant spring day.

The Doner is by far the best one I have eaten so far in Frankfurt. Tasty meat, good veggies and a fantastic, homemade hot, red chili paste (some kind of Turkish Sambal Olek). Also, the interior is much nicer and calmer than your average Kebap joint. And the personnel is friendly, too. Highly recommended.
