“When it comes to plant-based dining, finding a truly memorable meal can be like searching for a rare gem. But let me tell you, Kotti Berliner Doner Kebab has managed to deliver an experience that I won’t soon forget.

Let’s start with the vegan wrap—though, to be honest, it felt more like a perfectly constructed sandwich. This birthday gift from a thoughtful friend had me stepping out of my usual no-tofu zone. And wow, what an exception it turned out to be. The tofu wasn’t just there for the ride; it was marinated to perfection, blending seamlessly with the veggie mix.

Now, let’s talk bread. A crisp sesame riddled exterior gave way to a soft, pillowy bite, striking that elusive balance between texture and flavor. Each topping brought its A-game, adding layers of crunch, tang, and brightness that danced in harmony with every bite.

And then there was the special vegan sauce—the kind of condiment that elevates a meal from good to unforgettable. It was creamy, tangy, and herbaceous, tying everything together like a symphony of flavor.

The experience was made even better by the cook. Their patience, friendliness, and genuine care shone through in every element of the meal. It wasn’t just food; it was a crafted experience that left me eager to return.

Kotti Berliner Doner Kebab isn’t just serving vegan food—they’re setting the standard for how satisfying, flavorful, and downright exciting plant-based dining can be. If you’re even remotely curious about vegan fare, or just crave a culinary adventure, this is the place to go. Trust me, one bite and you’ll be planning your next visit.

“Beet salad was great, added on 2 bratwurst… potato salad was tasty but frozen. Drinks were good. Fraulein & manhattan, of course German beer 🍺“

“I was in on Friday for lunch , we sat at the bar. We were given the menu and a lunch special menu. We both ordered off the lunch special menu, and both got the same a pork jäger schnitzel with some French fries…15 bucks. The food was hot and tasty and the price was reasonable. The bartender was friendly and attentive, if you’re in the area this may be the best lunch deal in town.“

“4.5/5

Bunny is such a CUTE spot in the neighbourhood. Lovely small restaurant with a great ambiance.

The service is also amazing, both servers were so lovely and attentive, A+ !

I went with a friend and we shared everything… started with the marinated feta and the green beans!

The marinated feta was good, came with a very nice almost montreal bagel style bread and really tasty zucchini… only gripe I had with this was that the feta wasn’t very… marinated. No herbs, only olive oil.

The green beans were excellent, very nicely done and all flavors were fresh.

We had both split the schnitzel and the lamb kofte as mains. The schnitzel was cooked perfectly although I will say that it was under salted and lacking any herbs…

The lamb kofte stole the show, perfectly spiced and the farro was also cooked perfectly!

The baklava for dessert was also INCREDIBLE! I’m greek and so have memories of my yiayia’s and this was the closest i’ve had in a while 🥲

Will definitely be back to try the other items on the menu !“

“Excellent venue great food great service“

“Absolutely the best kept secret in the city! Everything is fabulous and the service is top Highly recommend“

“Awesome place , great food , awesome drinks , don’t hesitate to go to this cozy place for any occasion Located on Lower East Side of Manhattan ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“the food, the service, old music“

“Besides their wonderful restaurant, they have the German specialty store! Both bring a little bit of Germany to Queens. The butcher shop is spectacular and immaculate. There are so many choices! Whether you're stopping in because you came for dinner next door, or you are looking for some authentic German goodies. You won't go wrong.“

“First time trying both the Chicken & Beef Doner Boxes.I was pleasantly surprised how GOOD everything was! The flavourful meats with fresh veggies and feta, with or without sauces, all combined with the unique bread is a great new dinning experience unlike anything else. I highly recommend giving this a try ! We will definitely be return customers ! The ladies were quite helpful and informative about the food and it's history as well as super nice !“

“This is one of my favorite place to go. Eileen is very awesome as is the rest of the staff. This is a true gem for a service worker like myself. Monday is my Friday and my friends will walk over here with me and let me get a proper pint or three. Life ain’t so bad when you can sit here for an evening.“

“A great place to grab a drink in the summer, especially if you have a group. The bar has a great selection of delicious food and a huge beer and cider menu. The walls open up giving a great atmosphere and access to outdoor seating. Food and drink service are quick and staff are knowledgeable and kind.“

“Went during happy hour on a sunny Monday. It was full (not packed), no lines to get tickets — used to buy other items — and beer

The food, a bunch of sorted sausages, potato salad and a pretzel, were all delicious! That is, except for the chicken sausage, which didn’t really taste like much (lack of salt and of seasoning), though that’s nothing a bit of mustard can’t fix

A great place to have a conversation! Though, if it’s pretty hot, as it was the case, you may feel a bit uncomfortable. Perhaps get extra beers?“

“GREAT BRAT'S AND AMAZING BUTCHER NEXT DOOR“
