I ordered lentil soup and chicken döner kumpir. They were so delicious like back at home in Türkiye 🇹🇷. Also received complimentary baklava, when I saw it made me so happyyy!!! I called back to the restaurant and appreciated for the baklavas. Felt like home! Thank you for the great costumer service and keeping the taste real! Keep it up Döner 97! Bol şanslar ve hayırlı işler diliyorum, ellerinize sağlık.🤗👌🏼🙌🏼🤩😋

“My Döner was very good and it brought me back to a time when I lived in Berlin.”
My Döner was very good and it brought me back to a time when I lived in Berlin! I could have had a bit more sauces in it, but I could still get all of the flavors that make a Döner great. I absolutely recommend this place.

“Extremely good food.”
Extremely good food. Döner Kebab is the best. Pricey but worth every dollar. I am a Purdue student and this is how I spend my Fall Break every year, eating döner here. Owner gave me and my sister baklava, on the house.

Worth it. The pita was packed, fresh, and flavorful. The kind of meal that makes you pause after the first bite. Sauces were spot on (especially the spicy one!) and portions generous. My pup speaks for all of us. 10/10 would get food envy again.

“I haven’t lived in Germany for 20 years now and I have dreamt of a real doner kebab since then.”
I haven’t lived in Germany for 20 years now and I have dreamt of a real doner kebab since then. Sure there are foods similar to them but not it. This however is a real deal German doner kebab sandwich and it’s amazing! Unfortunately I live far from here or I would be here every day. This has brought back so many memories of being in Germany. Doner kebabs are a unique food fusion that is Turkish/German and I pray continues to grow outside of Germany. I will be back many times, this has fulfilled a life achievement for me. very kind staff.
