Kilim - Köln

Went to Kilimanjaro with my daughters last night. Stretched my limited German speaking a bit but we had great advice from the team there and ended up with about the right amount of food. Had the six small pastry starters and then the mixed meat plated to two and a sales. That was loads for four of us. Also had the Ayran and the tea. Everything tasted great. Well presented and the service here is absolutely top drawer. Friendly and efficient without being oppressive.

We showed up unannounced with a party of 8 including 2 kids. We were seated immediately, on a Thursday night. We ordered some lentil soup, a couple of appetiser plates, two Turkish pizzas, 2 salad plates, and the mixed grill for 4. This was more than enough, with maybe a meal for one left over. The appetizers were yogurt and tomato based pastes that are eaten with delicious Turkish bread. The pizzas are very thin and crunchy. They are served with fresh cilantro, radish and lemon wedges. They are nice and light. The mixed grill was delicious, served on rice and bulgar. I like the rice better. The grilled meats are classic Turkish specialties, little hamburgers, spicy ground kabobs, little lamb chops, chicken and lamb kabobs, garnished with grilled hot peppers, mushrooms and tomatoes. These are eaten with big, thin lavosh (think wheat tortillas).Everything was good. The service was just right. The place was lively, some might say noisy. The fact that the clientele was mostly of Turkish origin speaks to it's authenticity.

It's a great surprise! I know turkish cuisine very well! But this was great! Best turkish food I ever had! Try the turkish pizza Urfa style! The kebabs are great too! Even in Turkey I never had such a good kebab restaurant

Good food and even when the place was completely full the service was quick. The Tavuk had a bit too much oil for my taste...

I visited this restaurant 4 times for breakfast, lunch, dinner after I realized this is the best restaurant on the street.I discovered it thru the small pastry shop they have next door, everything looked and smelled right but there was no place to sit. They told me you can order our stuff from next door. What is amazing to eat: lahmacun, icli kofte, su boregi, all meats, koftes, and the desserts... shekerpare and baklavas etc. they also had decent cig kofte with real meat. Don't waste your time with other places on the street they are all very good but this one is excellent.
