Doner Corner - Review - Sawtelle - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Fast-casual spot Doner Corner has taken over a little street corner in West LA with a lineup of Turkish dishes, including spit-shaved doner kebab that can be ordered as a platter, over rice, or in a wrap or sandwich. We’re also excited about the lahmajun baked in-house, plus vegetarian options like cheese pides and falafel. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Cathy Park

I can confidently say this is the best Turkish food I’ve had outside of Turkey. The highlight of my visit was the İskender kebab—absolutely unforgettable. The meat was tender and perfectly seasoned, the tomato sauce rich and full of flavor, and the warm, buttery bread underneath soaked up every bit of goodness. The yogurt on the side balanced everything so beautifully. Beyond the dish itself, the service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere made me feel truly welcomed. If you’re looking for authentic Turkish cuisine, this place is a must. Do yourself a favor and try the İskender—you won’t regret it!

I had a great experience at Doner Corner! The food was absolutely delicious — the meat ( lahmacun) was perfectly crispy on the outside, tender inside, and packed with flavor. Every bite of diner kebab was tasty and fresh, and the portions were just right. The quality really stood out compared to other places. Definitely a spot I’d recommend if you’re craving authentic, well-made doner. I’ll be coming back for sure!

The best Turkish food in LA! Easily. The homemade bread is excellent. We’re surrounded by Turkish people so we knew we came to a good place. The rice pudding is the BEST I have ever had in my life. My brother inhaled it. The servers are so kind and personal. Wonderful, wonderful experience.

I really wanted to love Doner Corner. After spending two weeks in Turkey and falling in love with the food, I was so excited to find this place on Instagram. The person behind the counter was very kind and gracious, and you can tell they’re trying hard to offer good service. They even offer free Turkish tea, which is a nice touch. That said, there are definitely some issues they need to work out. They brought the food to our table without utensils, and we had to ask for water. Most importantly, the portions are small unless you order the larger 1.5x wrap for $25 — and only then is it enough to make you full. But at that price, you could easily go to a Persian restaurant and get two full skewers of kebab with rice and salad, making it a much better value elsewhere. The beef was also very oily, and the fries were greasy. Another disappointment was that the portions shown on their Instagram page are much bigger than what they actually serve, which feels misleading. I’m giving them two stars because they try to create a welcoming experience, and the free tea is a lovely gesture. I hope they can address some of these issues because the concept has a lot of potential.

After living abroad for a long time, I finally had a chance to enjoy truly authentic Turkish food again — and Doner Corner exceeded all expectations! We ordered Iskender, Künefe, Babaganoush, and Lahmacun. Everything was absolutely delicious. The Iskender was rich and flavorful, the künefe had the perfect balance of crispy and sweet, and the babaganoush was fresh and smoky. The lahmacun was great too — I’d love it just a bit crunchier, but still full of flavor. Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, and top-notch food. If you’re in LA and craving real Turkish flavors, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

I’ve had Doner Corner on my list for quite a while, and I finally got around to trying it. It did not disappoint! First off, the restaurant is very clean, and the staff are incredibly friendly—especially the gentleman at the cashier, who has a great sense of humor. His warm and lively attitude reminded me of the fun, polite restaurant staff I encountered in Istanbul. I ordered a Doner sandwich, Doner with rice, and Lahmacun. The quality of the meat was excellent—authentic Turkish doner with lamb, which is rare to find. That said, lamb has a distinct taste that might not be for everyone, but for those who appreciate it, this place does it right. One thing that stood out was their house-baked bread—a real bonus! The doner sandwich tasted even better with freshly baked bread straight from their oven. The only part that felt a bit off was the order of serving—the doner with rice came out first, followed by the sandwich a few minutes later, and then the lahmacun. It would have made more sense to serve the appetizer first before the main courses. Also, one key thing was missing—the onion salad. Typically, Turkish doner is served with a mix of red onion, parsley, tomato, lemon juice, pul biber, and sumac, but here they served plain white onion separately. It’s a small but essential detail that adds so much to the experience, and I hope they adjust this in the future. Despite that, I definitely recommend this place. The food is delicious, and I’ll be coming back—but I do hope they refine the serving flow and bring back the proper onion salad topping to make the experience even better!

Ohh a proper Turkish doner spot! The place seems new and it was very clean inside. The regular serving of the wrap though tasted great .. seems a bit light on protein. I saw some IG clips that made me aware. In the clip the meat on the wrap was overflowing. Little did I know that was a special order. On their menu board they mentioned 1.5x .. turns out that is what if meant. I’ll order that next time. The meat tasted great, it has a mix of beef and lamb, like a proper doner should. The fries came with the wrap I ordered, it felt soggy. I heard the sandwich is baked fresh per order. That I’ll try next. —- I came back another day to try the sandwich. Omg that was way better and seems better value than the wrap. Look at the amount of meat in that thing! It is also one where they bake the bread right at the time you order it. You have to eat it right away to appreciate it. It is excellent!!! — Parking is only available as street parking. It is not as easy to get a spot. That is one drawback.

I was excited another Mediterranean spot opened up in my neighborhood and couldn't wait to try. I didn't have time to sit and eat, so decided to order for pick-up instead. I got the Doner Over Rice with two sides tzatziki and ezme. I wasn't sure what the second item was, but wanted to try it and did not regret it one bit! It was so yummy. I'm interested in the other menu items because I've never had it before, particularly the pides. I think the food would taste even better dining in so when the holiday season dies down, I plan on going there one night for dinner. When I went to pick up the food everyone inside was so nice and the interior was very clean and more spacious than it looks from the outside. Looking forward to trying out more menu items in the near future.

Every neighborhood needs a Doner kebab spot. Doner Corner just opened , it's been worth the wait . We loved their Doner sandwich, hummus , Ezme and homemade Ayran beverage which the owner generously offered complimentary. Everything is fresh and even their bread is baked on premises. The staff are very friendly and efficient . Can't wait to go back .

The absolute worst doner kabob and pide I've ever had. The doner itself was flavorless, wrapped in a cold tortilla, and dry. The French fries were hardly fried, soggy, cold, and tasteless. The pide was edible but nothing to write home about. So sad as I'm a huge fan of Turkish food and was looking forward to enjoying Doner Corner. It's sad to see so many 5 star reviews here on Yelp and Google that are clearly not from real customers and are highly exaggerated as to the quality of the food.

I happened upon this gem of a restaurant on Christmas Day, just a week or so after opening day. Not only was the food exceptional, but so was the service! I was immediately treated to a glass of Turkish tea and a taste of their sinfully delicious baklava square. From that point on, I was certain I wouldn't regret the experience. Honestly, everything I ordered exceeded my expectations. Even the side dishes/sauces were noteworthy. It didn't even want to share. I'll be back for sure!

This place is terrible. I was excited to try it, but boy was it bad. Got the doner wrap and falafel with fries. All was bad. The fries were somehow cold, soft, flavorless and a bizarre white color. Don't go here.

Doner done good!!! Great location, and friendly folks preparing and serving authentic Turkish treats in an updated setting! The thinly cut doner is juicy and delicious. I tried the Lahmajun and am now addicted!
