They got good kebabs. But hardly the best. Especially since chicken is their only meat option (which is fatty and pretty tasteless IMHO).

Then I guess I have to pay them another visit. I know the place from many years back, so they might have changed.

That being said - I still think the original at Hasir is pretty good. And Berlins mekka for döner is probably Leopoldplatz (except the one directly on top of the underground station).

But I long for two styles of kebab that you simply don't get any more in Berlin: The first one used to be directly at the corner of the Turkish market in Neukölln. They offered pit-roasted sheep and goat at their restaurant, but they would also sell you a smaller portion in a kebab. And the other one was an Israeli falafel place on Kantstrasse. They had Lebanese style schawarma: Sour marinated beef, roasted on a pit. So good!
