What to Eat at German Doner Kebab Damac Mall How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For German Doner Kebab Damac Mall, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.

Og meal Net −1
“My first time trying their food, I ordered their best seller OG meal. I was expecting a lot from their sandwich, however, I was not satisfied because the sandwich had very little meat, which made it impossible for me to taste the beef at all. The sandwich was filled more with cabbage than meat. But all staff are very hospitable.”

Tips for a Better Visit
Check Add-ons. If ordering delivery, check every paid topping before leaving the order; two feta additions were reportedly missed.
Allow Time. Give rice-bowl orders extra time, even when the restaurant looks quiet; one customer waited 45 minutes.
Confirm Instructions. Repeat allergy and customisation requests at collection, as one takeaway order arrived with onion instead of no onion.
Ask About Meat. If a fuller sandwich matters, confirm the meat and sauce quantity when ordering; multiple reviews found both lacking.
Try Waffle Doner. For a more unusual choice, consider the famous waffle doner, which one diner called the best.

The Bottom Line
German Doner Kebab Damac Mall is a casual fast-food stop in Damac Hills for kebabs, wraps and other quick meals. Customers specifically mention the OG KEBAB, doner quesadilla and waffle doner, while the doner burger and fries also appear in positive visits. The space is described as cosy, comfortable and large enough for a relaxed mall meal, whether you dine in or take away.
Service is a real strength in many reviews: staff are often called kind, attentive and accommodating, and some regulars say the team remembers their usual order. Food can be fresh, tasty and quickly prepared, with sauces getting particular praise. Pricing is viewed favourably by some diners, though others think it is high for a fast-food restaurant; one review reports paying 52AED for a portion that disappointed them.
There are important inconsistencies. Customers have reported very little meat or sauce, smaller portions, missed toppings and salads, and a 45-minute wait for a rice bowl. One serious review describes a metal screw in a sandwich.
For delivery or takeaway, check paid additions and custom instructions carefully, and allow extra time for more involved orders.
