Staff was friendly but food was a little disappointing :( You have the option of dining in or taking out. The doner and fries were too salty, especially once it's covered by the cheese. I also got mixed meat and the pieces were charred and very dry..I'm not sure if I would visit this store again. read more

German Doner Kebab - Doner Box Fries & Cheese - Fast Food Near Me - Westfield, New Jersey

Absolutely unacceptable. We decided to give this place another chance, and it was a complete waste of time and money. My husband placed an order through their website, was charged in full, and then showed up only to be told they are permanently closed. Yet somehow their website is still active and taking payments, and there's zero indication on Google that they've shut down. That's beyond irresponsible--it feels like a scam. Now we're stuck dealing with the headache of trying to get our money back with no way to contact anyone. This place clearly doesn't care about its customers, even on the way out. Avoid at all costs. read more

No value for the price charged I bought double meat entrees and it seemed like there was a definite disconnect with the amount that should be considered a serving read more

Absolutely delicious! I ordered a mixed rice doner bowl & curry fries and my partner and I DEVOURED the entree. It was SO GOOD. I couldn't stop eating the rice bowl. Spoon after spoon, constantly, until I couldn't anymore - that is how good it was. The protein was delicious and flavorful, the perfect texture as well. Loved the mix of the fresh greens and the white sauce was delicious. It took about 7-10mins for the food to come out. The place itself is cute and has a lot of seating and comfortable seating too. It looks very nice and clean. I'd happily eat here again. read more

Not worth the wait. From ordering to receiving, our order of 1 Original Main and 1 Doner Box took a whopping 1 HOUR 7 MIN. No explanation at all for the wait, other than "it's coming" and a rather cold attitude. We noticed many frustrated customers, with one group getting fed up and asking for a refund while another lady got into an argument with one of the employees. Unfortunately it didn't even seem like the restaurant was that busy. Food was okay. They were out of all meats except for chicken at 6pm (which seems odd, because it's pre-dinner rush and they were already out of meat?). Also, for some reason the chicken reminded me more of rotisserie chicken instead of kebab meat. I wouldn't come back due to the slow service. If they can sort out their operations, maybe I'll consider trying this spot again next year but it definitely won't be somewhere I'd think of returning soon. read more

German Doner Kebab - a man ordering food - Fast Food Near Me - Westfield, New Jersey

Let me be very clear: kebabs are not something I eat on purpose. Kebabs happen to me. Historically, they appear only after midnight, usually in London after a night at the boozer followed by bad techno at a club, after worse decisions, usually while I'm chemically unprepared to process taste or consequences. So imagine my confusion - my quiet, suburban terror - when I found myself eating a kebab sober, in daylight, in Westfield, NJ. No sirens. No strangers crying on the curb. No Eastern European woman named Svetlana who may or may not be trying to give me a pill in order to steal one of my kidneys. No DJ named Luca insisting this was "the afters." Just a German Doner Kebab. Clean. Bright. Responsible. This place is clean. Too clean. No shouting. No drunk guy behind me insisting this is the "best kebab in the world, mate." Just efficient, calm people handing me what is essentially a daytime kebab, which feels like a violation of international law. The food? Shockingly good. Disturbingly good. Juicy, seasoned, shaved with the kind of precision usually reserved for Swiss watches or serial killers. This kebab has standards. The bread is pillowy and warm, like it went to therapy. The sauces are balanced, creamy, tangy, whispering, "You can have a future." And that's the problem. Kebabs are meant to be eaten leaning against a wall (or sitting on the curb), questioning your life while spiritually divorced from your body, pockets full of regret, shoes sticky with someone else's beer, and a sense of immortality brought on by substances that would concern your doctor. Kebab, to me, is not food. It is aftercare. This is kebab that has been gentrified. Kebab that owns a Peloton. Kebab that files its taxes early. Kebab that volunteers for its kid's elementary school PTO. And honestly? Respect. Kebab is supposed to feel like a bad decision that saves your life. Is this version the same as inhaling a kebab at 2:37 a.m. outside a London club while promising yourself you'll change? Absolutely not. This felt like a reasonable lunch option. After completing my meal I realized I wasn't spiraling. No shame. No regret. No hangover buffer. No need to stumble back home in a haze rethinking all of my life choices. It was just me and a well-constructed döner, having an emotionally confusing moment in suburban New Jersey. But here's the thing - I'd go back. Willingly. Sober. In daylight. And that terrifies me. read more

I wanted to give this place a try, so I did! When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked in and was greeted. I ordered a few things from the menu of the Doner Rice Bowl with chicken, grilled cheese waffle bread, garlic and cheese waffle bread, chicken empanada, and the snack box with doner crispy rolls and fries. The bowl wasn't too bad, and the snack box was actually good. The empanada and the two waffle breads were not my favorite out of the bunch. All in all, I had an ok experience. read more

Been here a few times, can't go wrong the doner kebab. It's good, could be great with a little more sauce, but i'm not complaining. Always down to stop here for a quick meal when i'm hungry read more

Excellent Jalapeño poppers. Everything else was just okay. My family ordered delivery of 2 Doner Kebabs which arrived huge with our choice of mixed chicken and beef, then lettuce, tomato, onion, red cabbage and their 3 signature sauces (garlic, yogurt, and spicy) in toasted sesame bread. While the meats tasted lean and good and all the ingredients tasted fresh, something was too sweet and overpowering. We also ordered extra garlic sauce but never got it. For my kids, the Quesadilla with similar ingredients was more balanced. read more

This fast food restaurant opened a month ago in downtown Westfield, where many of the mom & pop-owned businesses have been replaced by franchised food court-type chains heavy on corporate identity but light on substance. I sampled the beef dönor kebab wrap ($12), which resembles a Greek gyro. The schwarmas, supposedly beef or chicken, are bought-in frozen, heated on a rotisserie spit, sliced, and served with shredded red cabbage, lettuce, and onion, and assorted sauces on dönor bread, or as a platter. On the very first bite, I bit into something and thought I broke a tooth. There are hard black nigella seeds baked into the bread, maybe it was that. The meat is questionable. I had the "beef", which is aggressively seasoned, heavily processed and yellow in color. It neither looked nor tasted like it came from a steer. No thanks. read more

German Doner Kebab - a close up of a sandwich - Fast Food Near Me - Westfield, New Jersey

Went there for lunch on a Thursday. Parking in the street directly by the restaurant isn't free (parking meter), so I parked in a nearby street that allowed free parking, albeit with a 2 hour time limit. Took me less than 5 minutes to walk over. First thing I always check in a restaurant I've never been to before are the bathrooms. This place has 2 that can be used by either gender. Looked clean with soap in the soap spender (without soap I would have walked out right away as that would mean they are not checking the bathrooms at least daily). I ordered an original doner. When introduced in Germany in the 1980s, they used lamb meat. Chicken and beef are cheaper, so this place offers either or a mix which is what I decided to get. The doner looked very appealing and tasted very good. Pretty big portion and I understand they now offer also a smaller size. Make sure they give you plenty of napkins as you will need them. With a fountain drink and plain fries I paid $20.99. The fries are the reason I subtracted one star as they were too soft and didn't taste good. Also, the doner is so much food that you will be full just from that. I saw some complaints about waiting times. I got my food in less than 10 minutes but I should mention that there was only one other customer. I will certainly come back! read more

Food was very good Missing Lamb?? Quick ordering good selection of meals .Tried a bowl and a wrap both tasty.The only issue was the young lady working the counter Not very friendly no greeting ,smiles or anything?? read more

Delicious! This was my first time here and I'm already planning to come back and try more off the menu. I ordered the wrap with mixed chicken & beef and the meat was seasoned very well and not too much like other places. There was also veggies inside and a sauce that was not too heavy. We all got the quesadilla mixed meat and it was fantastic. There were banana peppers and onions with a nice sauce. We will be back! read more

Food was great overall ! Staff is nice and speed it ok . The restraint itself looks good with the orange !

Nice food. Reminiscent of the Doner stands you see all over Germany. The pidde bread is different than traditional Turkish pidde. It is thinner and textured, but crispy and flavorful. Tge portions are generous. The service is friendly and nice. No complaints at all. The ambiance is tgat of a fast food joint like the newer Burger Kings or Chipotle. read more

I brought my incorrect order to the attention of the staff for a refund/reorder and found them very combative. It took them 10 minutes, and calling the manager before they decided that they would refund the order that they had messed up. read more

I did a order on Uber eats. They gave me the wrong meat in the sandwich and the wrong side when I called and confront them. They said they called me which is a lie cause I've been no voicemail or phone call record from them. Highly recommend not using this company. read more

Came for dinner around 6pm with my small group of friends. We simply ordered a main each and fries to share, and after an hour wait we still don't have all our food. They have a whole team in the kitchen, it's clear they're lost and just standing around, but they made no effort to explain the issue to customers and acted like everything was normal. Several other dine-in and takeout customers went up to the counter to complain, and ended up getting a refund then leave. I really wanted to like this place, but won't be coming back and can't recommend this to others until they sort out these issues. Final verdict: 1 hour 15 mins for all the food, chicken "kebab" was more like rotisserie chicken and not freshly shaved thin crispy pieces off the grill (got chicken because they were out of beef kebab before the dinner rush even started). It was still a 1 star experience in every way. read more

First tried this place at the American Dream Mall and was glad that they had a location in Westfield, NJ. Was worried about the bad service reviews but decided to give it a try because we loved the food. The food was delicious, and surprisingly, the service was pleasant. We were there for lunch on a Sunday and the guy who was working at that time went out of his way to check on the the customers in the dining area. read more

I used to really enjoy this place at the beginning. The doenen was okey, and the quality was consistent. Unfortunately, they changed the meat, and the quality dropped like a stone. It's just not the same anymore. Very disappointing. read more

I don't usually post reviews, but the level of disrespect I experienced today at Doner Kebab was extremely disappointing and unacceptable. My husband and I walked into the restaurant for lunch and were rudely greeted by the woman who was working the 1pm shift. Her attitude was so unpleasant that we decided to leave and go to Chipotle instead. She really needs a lesson in customer service, as the way she interacted with us was rude and uncalled for. The food is usually decent, but it's definitely not worth dealing with such rudeness. No one wants a mean person preparing their food. read more

I've been at 49 states all across the America, living in NYC ,originally being from Azerbaijan - where Doner is pretty much everyday's food, so I can tell that this place is awesome! Service is on a good level with friendly staff members! They have both chicken and beef Doners and an option to combine both which is my favorite. On my opinion this is the best Doner restaurant in America! read more

food was fine. tasted relatively good, portions were enough. price was reasonable. staff was slowwwww. just standing and lookin. place was clean they did fine, okay. but the service was just like what the hell. at least when giovanni brought the food over he was nice. but i can't stand just standing around like a nuisance as a paying customer. read more

Got the Doner box and it was delicious. Service was fast and the owner was helpful and friendly.

Food was fine, ordered 3 things came within 8 mins. No atmosphere, played American TikTok songs in a "German" fast food place. Inside is overly modern all black and orange not at all authentic. But for fast food it's ok. read more

Different but really good. Love the bread And their sauce. Can't wait to try more menu items.

Just ordered last night. AWFUL. I have eaten at this chain at The American Dream Mall several times and it is always good. Decided to try this one as its more local to my home. I was so disappointed. We ordered 70 dollars worth of food and threw out 50% of it. The sandwich we ordered in the big boss box had almost no meat. We even paid 2 dollars and some change for extra meat, as we were splitting it. We always split a sandwich at this chain and can't even finish (usually without the extra meat). Well imagine our disappointment as a soggy sandwich filled with lettuce, cabbage and sauce appeared... was merely sprinkled with meat. The spring rolls were so overcooked they had split open and were sopping in grease. They were not edible. The meat was black inside from being over fried. There were literally five fries inside the fry baggy. This one item was a 22.00 meal, with the up charge for extra meat. I think we will just visit the other one from now on. Disappointed as I feel they won't last long in Westfield because the other chains overshadow. Head over to American Dream if you want to try a better example of german doner kebab. read more

We were there Jan 3, afternoon and ordered two different Doner's for take out. We requested just the yogurt sauce on both. When we got home we thought they had left off the sauce and then realized there was maybe a tenth of an ounce smeared on the side of the bread like a bit of butter. We have been to Germany many times. That is not how it is made anywhere else, and the result is way below average. read more

Don't know what these other fools are talking about. Food is amazing! I've eaten this food in the UK and I think its actualy better here.
