Rissani - Berlin

After more than 2 hours still not get eaten. no one can reach by phone. absolute catastrophe, because it's already paid.

The place looks like a snack bar and it is! Only they serve really nice Lebanese snacks such as shoarma with haloumi cheese... mmmm

Stopped her on a hot day, very friendly! Had the falafel sandwich with French fries in it. Great deal for Euro. A huge pita with falafel and veggies and sauce! I asked for the hot sauce too. Wish they had beer. They have tables...outside too. OK, so there was a human hair in the food, but have had that in star restaurant...Take it as you will. I'd go again despite that. With that afternoon meal I couldn't eat again until breakfast the next day! There is adjacent bike parking too. I've had great falafel in the Middle East, this was decent.

On arrival, the decor was a bit underwhelming, especially after the website that recommended it had hyped it up so much. It looked like a standard, average kebab place but boy were we wrong. On the recommendation of another customer, we purchased a few Rissani...sharing plates between us. The food was AMAZING! Falafel, kebab meat, onions, houmous, cabbage, pickle and loads more all loaded onto a plate. I shared one with my friend each) and we left full up. Swear I almost entered a food coma. So much food at such a good price and it was so tasty too! Could easily share it amongst three people and it works out even better value. Don't be put off by its slightly shabby appearance because the food was one of the best meals we had on a month-long trip around Europe!!

After reading the positive reviews on Tripadvisor we decided to go for diner there after we visited the East Side Gallery. It is located in a lively part of Kreuzberg. You order your food at the counter and you can eat outside or take it...home with you. The food is basic but very tasty. They serve very large portions. The falafel was crisp and moist at the same time. The staff was very friendly and offered us a nice cup of tea after finishing our meal, free of charge. It may not be a first class restaurant, it certainly is a first class experience!
