Double skewer dürüms Net 0

Only neutral feedback

“Visited to try their traditional dürüm. I ordered double skewer dürüms, but the portion size was quite small and not worth the price (AED 36). Typically, such sandwiches come with sauce included, but here it’s charged separately even after I brought 2 nos double Skewer. The taste was average — decent but nothing exceptional. Overall, I’d consider this place as a one-time visit experience.”
The original kebab Net 0

Only neutral feedback

“Heard a lot about this place but unfortunately the rolls were just okay, nothing extraordinary and bit pricey overall for an average portion. We tried The Original Kebab and Cheezy Chicken Kebab.”

Drinks 3

Lemonade Net +1

The Bottom Line

Durum Restaurant Motor City is a small, casual Turkish wrap shop where the main event is grilled kebab tucked into freshly made dürüm bread. The Original Durum and Original Double are the clearest starting points, while chicken tikka, chicken mozzarella and lamb dürüm give you room to branch out. Reviews repeatedly mention juicy meat, smoky grill flavour and bread with a proper char.

The food is generally considered authentic, with diners comparing the experience to Istanbul or Adana. The fries are another dependable side, described as crisp outside and soft inside, and Turkish drinks such as lemonade and şalgam are available. Some reviewers also praise the sauces for staying balanced rather than overwhelming the meat.

Keep expectations practical about the setting. Seating is very limited—roughly a couple of indoor tables and a few outdoor tables in one detailed review—so takeaway or delivery often makes more sense, especially in hot weather. Free parking near the restaurant was reported.

There are a few reasons to check your order and extras carefully. One delivery review reported two missing items, while another found a double-skewer dürüm small for AED 36 and said sauce cost extra. Quality feedback is mostly strong but not uniform, with one repeat customer reporting recently dry wraps.
