Istanbul Imbiss Döner Kebap — Restaurant in Munich

We stayed a block from here for a week during Oktoberfest. The food was decent, about what you’d expect from a quick service spot. I didn’t find anything wrong with our doners (nothin raw like others mentioned). The seasoning just wasn’t to my liking.

My word of caution is to make sure you’re diligent on pricing. We went here 3 times during our stay. The first time, the cashier totaled up our doners so they were 2 EUR more each. When asked, he said he made a mistake and corrected. Our second time, there was no issue. Our last visit consisted of taking away 5 doner and 8 cans of beer (their cans were below and handwritten 3 EUR price, bottles were by a 4 EUR price). The initial cost came to 13 EUR more than we were expecting. They priced every item more by 1 EUR. When questioned, he fixed the price on the food, but not the beer, insisting that the 3 EUR was meant only for soda, not the beer despite the placement. I told him we would take the doner and put back the beer. He said it was all or none, so I started to leave. At that point, he begrudgingly fixed the price on the beer as well.

It felt a little shady that pricing and discrepancies seem to only happen in their favor. We did not return after...

A server from the restaurant next door to the döner place came through the back door by the bathrooms and grabbed my friend's durum as he was eating it. Imagine it, it was like a movie! A complete stranger interrupts your conversation to aggressively joke as though he is asking for a bite of your friend's food!!! It was insane, I cannot remember something like this happening to me before. And he just laughed it off like it was normal! What a psycho. The two restaurants seem to share a back hallway, because several times a cook came out from the same place as that psycho server. When we finished eating I stood outside to wait and the cook was there smoking a cigarette. He oogled by whole body, even after I looked him in the eyes and asked him, "what?!" This guy just stared at me for five minutes while smoking his cigarette like I was some kind of inert object. He did not react to me at all when I showed discomfort and irritation. This place is run by unadjusted, aggressive, bizarrely behaved men. DO...

This place has cursed me with a menial existence where Ill never, again, be able to achieve the foodgasm I received from their doner kebab. After trying one perfect one here, no other restaurant will ever come close and Ill be forced to feel a level of disappointed after every one of their poor imitations to what I received here. Seeing as I doubt Ill ever be back in Germany, at least not for many years to come, there is little chance that Ill get to have Istanbul Imbiss's attempt at capturing nirvana into a pita again. I am cursed to wonder the desert of lackluster kebabs for the...
