Craving authentic döner and wraps? This Turkish spot satisfies with amazing lamb & chicken shawarma and must-try baba ghanoush, though falafels may disappoint.
This Turkish eatery in Manhattan is a popular spot for those craving authentic döner and flavorful kebabs. Diners rave about the tender and delicious chicken and lamb shawarma, often served in wraps. Don't miss the creamy baba ghanoush, a must-try appetizer. While the döner is praised for its traditional bread and toppings, some guests found the falafels to be mediocre. The service aspect of sauce application in small containers might require a bit of self-assembly, but the overall consensus points towards a satisfying and value-for-money dining experience, especially for its shish kebab wraps.
The restaurant offers Turkish and German-style döner, with many customers highlighting the shawarma (both chicken and lamb) as a standout. The baba ghanoush is also specifically recommended. However, the falafels have been described as unimpressive. Sauces for some items are provided separately, which some find inconvenient.

Positive"The author was not very impressed by the falafels at Memos Shish Kebab but finds both their chicken and lamb shawarmas to be great. They mention a minor inconvenience: the sauce is not put directly in the sandwich, requiring self-application from small containers which can be messy."
Neutral"The author recommends Memos Shish Kebab on 23rd and 6th. They specifically advise fellow diners to 'make sure you try the baba ghanoush'."
