Mustafa's Gemüse Kebap

Staying in Berlin without trying one of the best kebabs in town… I couldn’t do that. 🙂 I was near Checkpoint Charlie and realised I was close to Mustafa’s one (I had a few other adresses in my pocket though). So 1h15min of waiting is not nothing, I can give you that. Now all depends on how bad you want it hein 🤣 I stayed and the verdict is… 🥁 It’s totally worth it. An excellent quality of chicken, slices are slim but juicy, savoury. The bread is amazing, it made this delicious “crunch” sound each time I bit in. Veggies - excellent, I would not have minded more aubergines but… chef’s choice after all. Mint and goat cheese in it, wow amazing. 🤩 I also appreciated the service. They are quick and it’s nice to see them relaxed and not nervous or speedy but rather smiling and cool. I totally recommend. PS don’t take a takeaway, eat it right there to have the better taste and for a better presentation of kebab 😉

I’ve seen reels about this place and I really wanted love it, mainly because I waited over 1.5 hours for my kebab. But I felt it was full of MSG and I’ve had better ones without long waiting lines. The service is slow although there were three people working in that place. It seems only one person was taking care of cutting the meat and frying veggies. It says grilled but I saw him taking the frying basket out of the oil tank. The staff is friendly and the salad inside the kebab was fresh. But all in all, it is just not worth the hype.

The first thing you need to know is that it's cash only. I'd queued 20 mins before I spotted this. It's definitely worth it as the drum was delicious- well filled and a lovely blend of flavours. Service friendly and smiley too.

It’s definitely a must-try if you’re in Berlin. No matter what time of day it is, you’ll have to wait in line. We waited for 2 hours ourselves. The chicken wrap includes fries, peppers, cucumber, tomatoes, cottage cheese, and 2-3 types of sauce. Every bite is packed with flavor. You should absolutely give it a try — it’s worth braving the cold while waiting in line!

If you're in Berlin, this place is a must-try! Be prepared for a long queue no matter the hour—we personally waited over two hours. But trust me, it's worth it. The veggie döner is loaded with fries, grilled veggies like peppers and cucumbers, fresh tomatoes, cottage cheese, and a mix of delicious sauces. Each bite is bursting with flavor. Even standing in the cold felt justified by how good it was. Definitely worth the hype and the wait!

The best kebab you can try in Berlin! It is usually crowded but it's definitely worth the wait. Bread was crunchy and meat was flavorful, I suggest to not remove a single ingredient. I also took my brother there and he loved it!

The döner itself was tasty - but the wait was LONG (about 1.5hrs). It was different to the döner I had previously (maybe because it was chicken), but the vegetables delicious and the bread crunchy all the way through. Delicious spices. The people in line were really friendly and we got chatting to a few. Pro tip? Grab a beer at a local shop to keep you entertained whilst you wait.

First off, the wait was quite long, we arrived on a Sunday at 6:45pm and waited in line for just over an hour, which, considering how popular this place is, is reasonable I guess. The queue is long, but not overwhelming if you know beforehand what you're in for. As the queue moves forward and I approached the food truck, I saw the chicken kebab constantly dripping with meat juice, then I know I am in for an experience. I had a dürüm. Which for my limited understanding of German and Turkish cuisine, seem to be basically a kebab wrap. It is a symphony of the following ingredients, the ones I recognised at least: Marinated chicken Roasted Carrot, potato, eggplant Cucumber mixed with mint Multiple kinds of Cabbage Red pepper Onion Tomato Cheese potato salad There are many ingredients that doesn't belong to a typical kebab, yet it works amazing together here. It is magical. My only criticism is the dürüm was wrapped quite sloppily and it is rather messy to enjoy the food. But other than that, it was amazing, and I wonder when is the next time I get to enjoy a kebab to this level.
