I give this place 5 stars because it was (no question) the best durum kebab I have had in Denmark…read moreso far. I am therefore rating only the durum kebab I got and nothing else. Fast order, pleasant shawarma master, clean display, clean interior, nothing to complain about. The durum wrap itself was really delicious, baked after I ordered. Meat had a very good flavour with a lot of spices dominating the taste which is correct for my taste (since it's in most cases lamb which has a very strong odour). They added some salad, tomatoes, pickled cabbage, onions and some jalapeños along with a creme fraiche dressings and my durum kebab was ready. Price was 39DKK which is probably slightly more than other shawarma bars around Norrebro but totally okay with me and it is worth it. Since I am in the area quite often, I will most likely be back very fast. That was my first time at this place and certainly not last.

The staff were really nice. I asked for an English menu but they didn't have any but informed me that there is a staff member who is very fluent in English. Luckily my friend knew Danish, so it was no problem. There was quite a variety (doner, platters, sweets, turkish pizza) and prices were pretty standard. I had the lamb kebab while my friend had the chicken shawarma (I think). There was a bit too much fat in the lamb for my liking. It was well seasoned but a little tough to chew. The bulgar was flavorful but dry... I'm a bit disappointed with the food, but somewhat enjoyable. Maybe other options taste better? The restaurant is quite spacious and it looks like there's areas for large groups. They even have outdoor seating for days with nice weather.

Previously, my go-to has been Kebabistan on Istegade, which was closer to my old apartment. Tragically, it's just a little too far away now to justify a quick stop in on the way home, so I was searching for candidates for a replacement. Safir is basically always at least half full of people. On Friday nights, there is a line out the front door. My curiosity finally got the best of me last night and I tried a simple and cheap dish (shawarma salat - 30kr) last night. It was the perfect amount of food, and the meat was very good quality. I would've loved a little more "salat" in the "salat" but I was definitely satisfied at the end of the meal. My dinner dates ordered the half chicken platter, which will get a vicarious thumbs up in this review. I'm also told the ayran is second to none, and a must when eating shawarma, but I went with bottled water. Living life on the edge, always. :) Considering the value and quality for the money you spend, this place is definitely worth a visit.

Medina was easy and flexible to work with for both the reservation and the actual event. We wanted to give our family another taste of local Nørrebro culture than just the scare stories in the news, and Medina offered excellent atmosphere, plenty of space for our group and a good selection of food in their buffet, that both let our guests explore dishes from middle-eastern culture, while also offering more familiar foods, such as chicken, fries and an excellent lasagna. As a pleasant surprise, they also had a small playroom where our guests could keep their youngest children entertained. Their food was good in both taste and selection, at only 75 kr. for each lunch buffet (including drinks). You can no doubt find better food if you move to a different price range, but we all had a good experience at Medina and it was perfect for our purposes. (note that they rebuilt and changed their menu in late 2016 and older reviews may no longer apply)
