Leziz Restaurant in Osdorp-Midden

I ate here for the first time about nine years ago. Back then, everything tasted good. After that, I didn't go for a while, but I've been coming back for the past two years. The shawarma is still really delicious, and the garlic sauce and onion sauce are tasty too. However, the quality varies each time. Sometimes the meat is a bit too tough and there are hard, white pieces mixed in. Sometimes the meat is also very greasy, so much so that the fat just drips off the bun. Fortunately, that was good this time. What I find particularly disappointing is that the bun used to be heated up warm and nice and crispy. Lately, I just keep getting a normal, cold bun. Last time, I asked them myself if they could warm up the bun. In my opinion, a shawarma bun should simply be served warm. Also, the bun isn't cut open properly. The sides just stay closed, so no meat gets in there. As a result, the meat isn't spread evenly across the entire bun, and there isn't always enough in the middle either. In the end, I sometimes end up mostly eating bread. However, I don't want to give one or two stars, because the food is fundamentally just good. I hope you take this up and that the shawarma and the other dishes improve again. You really have tasty food, so I hope the quality becomes a bit more consistent again.

Very tasty kiymali pide, worth the price.

The food is often good here. I often come here with my team for team outings.

Never eating here again, I ask for a large shawarma sandwich and I get a loaf with 2 scoops of shawarma😡😡😡so stingy and that for 9.50 I ask for chicken soup it's full of nane We get fries with ketchup he drops it into a glass of water he takes it out and not even says sorry he'll exchange it I got angry I say this can't be right get a new bottle of water I said they just stared at me weirdly

Stingy, sandwiches aren't cut open properly, there's only a tiny bit of shawarma in the middle of the bread. 1st and last time.

I recently celebrated my engagement here. The staff is very friendly and the food is of excellent quality. Definitely recommended!

Last Thursday, I held my engagement party here. Everything was perfectly organized and it was absolutely fantastic. The food was delicious, the staff friendly, and the service was definitely very good! Highly recommended. Best regards, Özlem and Ferhat

Last weekend, I held an engagement party here for over 60 people. Everything was perfectly arranged!! Food, service, decoration. The guests were also very satisfied. And the owner was very sweet too.

We celebrated our Nikkah and Rokha ceremonies here, and everything was perfectly arranged! The owner ensured that everything ran smoothly and was well-organized on the day itself. The food was delicious, exceeding expectations, and was served excellently. Thanks to the amazing service, we were able to celebrate a wonderful party here. Highly recommended!

I held my wedding dinner here, a super experience! The meals were delicious and the service was top-notch! Very friendly people, definitely recommended.

If you don't want to go hungry, definitely don't order. I waited 1.5 hours for my order. Okay, it happens, it's human nature, I understand. I paid extra for both rice and potatoes. The rice didn't arrive. The lentil soup wasn't lentil soup at all. I think they used the leftovers from another soup. It was extremely greasy. Unfortunately, it went in the trash. There was no tomato paste in the dumplings. The beef tenderloin was very watery and bright red inside. Regardless, they could have at least called to apologize for the delay or included something extra. Even worse, the order arrived incomplete... I absolutely do not forgive the money I paid.

People go there for the meat-filled bread (etliekmek).

At Leziz Restaurant Amsterdam, it is all about traditional grilling and real shawarma the way it should be. No standard meat, but well-seasoned pieces of beef with a full and distinct flavor. This is shawarma with character, prepared with craftsmanship and clearly made with care. The homemade bread completes the experience: fresh and deliciously soft, exactly as it should be. The sauces are beautifully balanced: a fresh garlic sauce, spicy sambal, and a distinctive red, slightly thicker sauce with real fried onions. Together, everything creates a rich, authentic flavor without becoming too heavy. For me, it felt like I was traveling back in time in my mouth to the 70s, 80s, and 90s, when shawarma was still prepared in a pure, artisanal way and every bite was a true taste sensation. Simply the way shawarma is meant to be: pure, artisanal, and phenomenally delicious.

The meats were well-cooked, but there was actually far less meat than there should have been. Half the plate was already french fries. The chicken wings also had very little meat. The rice pudding was acceptable. The stuffed meatballs tasted like they were store-bought, but they weren't bad. The dumplings were good. Overall, it gets a passing grade, but I probably wouldn't recommend it because the portions were disappointing. If this is due to cost, they should increase prices instead of cutting portion sizes. Quality and experience shouldn't be compromised. It's nice that they have a prayer room.

I had a wonderful experience dining at Leziz Restaurant. The food is authentically prepared, with vibrant flavors and high-quality ingredients that truly stand out. It is evident that great care goes into the seasoning and presentation of every dish. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it a great spot for both a casual meal or a more relaxed gathering with friends. The service was professional and attentive, ensuring a smooth and pleasant visit from start to finish. If you are looking for delicious, authentic cuisine in a comfortable setting with excellent service, this place is highly recommended. It offers a great balance of quality and hospitality.

This is a restaurant I go to regularly during my visits to Amsterdam. The food is delicious, and it's a lovely place. The owner is very attentive and friendly. Thank you.

Despite having a reservation, we had to wait for a table to become available. We had ordered appetizers beforehand, but unfortunately, the main course arrived and the appetizers were still nowhere to be seen. To make matters worse, they added the unserved appetizers to the bill at the cashier. It's a shame, I never expected such nonsense.

Why are the loaves of bread in the trash can?

Nice restaurant and delicious food

The food was very good and the staff were friendly.

The food was delicious! The staff was very friendly, everything was clean (including the restroom), and the prices were reasonable. We'll definitely be back!

The kebab is tasteless, and better to have strong stomach for what next to come

Amazing restaurant. May Allah bless this place and its people.

The pide was delicious. I ordered chicken soup and didn't like it at all. They were a bit slow, I only deducted 1 point.

Ridiculous, paid €27.50 for this. It tasted like dog food. Not tasty and poor quality. Ordered it for the first time and will never order it again. See photo* In the photo, the meat still looks large. Adana kebab that's almost as long as a French fry. Jokes...

The taste was good, but I ordered a takeaway from inside. The sandwich I ordered was carelessly prepared; the bread was empty, there was no salad inside, only salad on the side. I wouldn't recommend the döner kebab; it wasn't good at all.

Had a delicious meal at this Turkish restaurant today. The food quality is really good, especially the meat, which is very fresh and pure. Portions are generous and perfect for an adult. Definitely recommended.

The food itself is delicious, but the quality is compromised by some details, such as making the soup properly hot. Furthermore, the service is a bit poor because people don't move around; they're often all behind the bar. The waiter, Bedir, is very hospitable and professional. The atmosphere is also pleasantly cozy.

The food here is always delicious. Definitely recommended. The staff is always attentive and friendly. I almost always order the Mixed Grill. It's filling, and you get a little bit of everything. The Yogurtlu Kebab is also highly recommended. If you still have room, you can always stay for a Turkish sweet. Of course, with Turkish tea.

I generally find Turkish restaurants in the Netherlands rather poor. Everything is so standard and unnecessarily expensive. Many people don't bother and use the cheapest ingredients. The İskender, in particular, is often terrible. The dishes all seem the same: one time it's chicken with vegetables, the next it's meat with vegetables. It's a shame that there are almost no truly good Turkish restaurants in Amsterdam.

Great food, great ambience and great people!

Leziz has always been known in my area for its food and service. Now I got to experience it for myself. We rented the entire restaurant and held a small event, and it was a success! Our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves. A huge thank you to the very hospitable and friendly people who hosted us. Thanks, Team Leziz!

Wonderful variety of food and a great atmosphere. The mixed meat platter is highly recommended, and the pumpkin baklava is definitely worth trying if you love pumpkin.

Consistent for years, always top!

Top restaurant, super delicious food and high level of service. Definitely worth the effort and the money.

Great place! Highly recommended! Good food and friendly staff.

Top-notch restaurant, definitely worth it. Delicious food and excellent staff make for an unforgettable evening.

Delicious food, great service. Everything was great, thank you!

Cold tripe... cold feet. And it looks closed from the outside..

super tasty, family atmosphere, also sooo tasty for takeaway 10/10

Leziz Restaurant offers a feast of flavors that will make your palate explode! The freshness, presentation and taste of the food were amazing. The service was fast and the staff was friendly. Especially the [ADANA KEBABINI] is a must-try! A warm atmosphere where you will feel right at home. A place you will want to come back to again and again!”

Really disappointed in Leziz. We paid 50 euros for 2 menus, but there was not even a salad included, while this was expected. On top of that, we also got the wrong order! The food also looked really miserable and sloppy, not at all what you would expect for that amount. After contacting them, we only got excuses. And to make matters worse, I still have to pick up my correct order somewhere myself. Really scandalous. Customer service is below par and the quality of the food is downright bad. Never again Leziz for us. Thanks for your response, but unfortunately I am even more disappointed after reading it. 1. Your own menu clearly states that all grilled dishes are served with salad and fries or rice of your choice. You are now trying to pretend that salad is optional for an additional charge of €0.50, while according to your own description it should be included with the dish. See the attached screenshot. The suggestion that I would have chosen this myself is incorrect and also misleading. 2. Regarding the “wrong order”: you call it “chicken thigh pieces” while I ordered chicken skewers. A piece of cut chicken without a skewer is no longer a “skewer” for a customer. That is not only misleading in the description, but you also do not deliver what is literally stated on the menu. 3. Your response is not professional. Instead of understanding or offering a decent solution, you choose to dismiss my complaint as an “unjustified review” and not take my opinion about your dishes “seriously”. That is a bad attitude towards a paying customer who is entitled to the product as advertised. In short: you are at fault, you deviate from what you communicate on your menu, and you shift the responsibility to the customer. I will simply leave my review with proof and, if necessary, will also file a complaint with Thuisbezorgd and the consumer association.

Just ordered 50 euros worth of food from this rogue establishment. 2 dishes of almost 20 euros each and you get a portion worth 5 euros. Then the wrong dish was delivered. I called this thief establishment and then you are told that they will not deliver the dish and that they broke up with me and only have to come and pick it up myself while I paid for delivery. They are straight out thieves who simply do not give a damn about the paying customer and the service was even worse. Never again for me and let this be a warning to the people who want to order here and have it delivered, Do not do it!!!!. You will definitely be disappointed.

Excellent halal food and friendly atmosphere. Steaks top. Portions big.

We loved the okra soup so much, we started buying it for home. Edit: the rice is also very good.

The furnishings are basic but nice. The dishes are delicious, and the order never takes long. Not a trendy place, but delicious honest food!!

The food was ok! Not very special. When it's busy, the service is also less!

I had my engagement party here. Everything was really perfect. Very nice owner and very nice staff. The food was very generous and very tasty. We only got positive feedback from the guests. Thank you Leziz Restaurant for this unforgettable day!

Very little chicken and minced meat in the sandwiches, no lettuce either, ordered 2 fries but received 1 fries and 1 rice, this was my last time here

I advise you not to do business with this restaurant because it is a very very very bad restaurant.

Great atmosphere and authentic flavors! Leziz Restaurant offers a warm and welcoming ambiance with true Turkish hospitality. The dishes are fresh, tasty and carefully prepared — from the mezes to the main courses, everything is a feast for the senses for my family of 9. The service is friendly and attentive, and the price-quality ratio is excellent. Outdoor seating is also possible, which makes it extra pleasant. Highly recommended for those who love authentic Turkish cuisine in the heart of Amsterdam West!

Very tasty food and friendly staff! Definitely recommended.

Went by last night with a group of 13 people, food was sent back, none of the meat was properly cooked, chicken wings just had blood on them! Last time I was here was 3 years ago when it was still good. Staff all unfriendly, all those ladies who work there! You are not even asked if you want something to drink. Sorry, but this is really nothing for such a beautiful restaurant. Shame

Amazing food and quality, and good service. I think this is the best place in the area for Mediterranean cousin.

Today we had iftar together with the whole family (+-30 people) at Leziz. The food was very good and super fast service. Thanks for this.

The inside was very nice, nice music was playing and the staff was very polite and offered coffee, it was really delicious. I found the restaurant I was looking for, I was thinking that I would come back all the time, until I tasted the food. I ordered kelle paça soup, ravioli and shepherd's salad. Kellepaca soup was the worst soup I have ever eaten in my life. There was no meat in it, there was only water in it and the water was not tasty, it tasted like dough. It is not easy to make a really bad soup, but unfortunately they managed to do it. The manti was almost the same. I haven't eaten the shepherd's salad yet, but I don't think the salad is bad. I can fix it.

Delicious food, always enjoy the good quality food!

Tasty and good food for not too much.

First time but unfortunately also the last time, I was so looking forward to it. Very disappointed!

Lekker gegeten. We hadden de Keziz special. Een mix van gegrild vlees met rijst, paprika en champignons. Erbij patat en salade. Lekker vers en fris. Vriendelijke bediening. Een aanrader

Delicious dishes. Sea bass and sea bream fantastic. Everything is so tasteful. And recently picked up shawarma, clearly real lamb. Sandwich not overcrowded with meat because it is good quality. Unfortunately a little further from my house, but you will see me more often for take out but also to eat in your beautiful restaurant. Thanks

We heard about Leziz from the Davidsbeenhere YouTube channel and had to check it out during our Amsterdam vacation. Leziz exceeded all our expectations. Despite being a bit far from where we were staying, getting there was easy thanks to the convenient 1 tram. We loved it so much that we went back a second time before the end of our trip! The Turkish pizza and the fresh salad were our favorites. What really made the experience memorable was the warm and friendly staff. We even arrived very late one night, around 11 p.m., and they happily served us without any rush. Leziz is a true gem, and we can't recommend it enough! If you're in Amsterdam and want a great meal with excellent service, this is the place to go. We will definitely be back the next time we are in Amsterdam.

Delicious food, very nice and helpful staff and a very nice atmosphere

Nice atmosphere, friendly service, delicious food

Ravioli arrived cold. No cutlery was provided, even though we asked for it. Bread was not brought with the chaban. The employees are very rude, they try to get better when you point out their shortcomings.

Delicious shawarma sandwich here!

I celebrated my engagement party at this beautiful location and all my guests were extremely satisfied with the delicious food! The chef and owner, Faruk, is a very friendly man who arranged everything perfectly for us on this special day. Definitely recommended for festive occasions. What was less is that the guests always had to get up to get their drinks, instead of waitresses bringing them or asking...

Waiters answer your questions with Force Baby Crips dirty and you need to pick up yourself. Nobody assist you for that. Food is plain no oil vinegar or lemon juice juice to even salad served. Turkish pizza has almost no meat. Explanation of restaurant you buy for 3€ and you are expecting 10€ service. This explains general understanding for their hospitality. Only positive thing taste of bulgur rice which is greatly spiced and leave good after taste. Answering honest google reviews with emotions and showing aggressive attitude will not benefit their future. They need to check cleanliness of baby high chairs, check personal hygiene of your staff you will see points to improve. Hope they will understand and adapt, in case if they are willing to improve.otherwise they will only blame honest reviews and will generate excuses.

De Aker tram number 1, which is easy to reach, passes in front of it. Generally, there is no parking problem; there is plenty around. The place is clean and decent, you can go with your family with peace of mind, the food is delicious, we especially liked the okra soup and pitas, the şourma dish seemed a bit dry to me and the portion was small, but the sauces with it were nice. I couldn't find a masjid to suit such a good place, although it is not right to call it a masjid, but a prayer rug laid on the ground behind a screen.

Went here for dinner today. What a grumpy waitress. Just received our menu card and she was already there with a pen to take our orders. Apparently she was in a hurry and took too long. The fries were marked with kilos of salt and the waitress said it was still nice, yes, and what now? My 2-year-old daughter doesn't have any kidney problems with all that salt. Customer friendliness a 0

I've been to this place many times in the 20 years it's been around. Always in a team. In the early days you got a whole plate full of good/lots of meat, fries, rice and salad. Of course everything was a lot cheaper then. Now everything is more expensive and the portions are also minimal. In the early days there were staff who were very direct with customers. I remember that the cups of tea were brought while we had not yet finished and the main course arrived. We then reluctantly got our cups back. Only we no longer knew whose cup belonged to whom. They had good and bad periods. I have been invited here for a team birthday celebration and it was a success. We also ate here for the second time as a team due to the birthday of someone who has a Leziz subscription. We got everything in abundance there, that was during the Corona period when they were allowed to (be or remain) open again. Been a few times since then. Service was good. The bread was nice and warm and therefore attractive to eat with the sauces. The adana was spicy but not as 'tender' as that of Kebabhan, for example. If the meat is still warm, it is good to eat. Once it has cooled down a bit, chewing becomes a bit harder. The salad has decreased, which I am happy with because the salad was usually quite a lot. The fries were fine in quantity and also crispy. Rice was a scoop. The mix grill that the other team members took was good. It was near dinner time and half busy. In busy times I don't know how the staff has everything under control. Perhaps for next time to investigate. Then I will make a report again. I do agree with certain reviews from certain visitors here. I am always very critical and give 2 stars. After a while I will probably visit them again because the quality is quite acceptable.

Friendly staff, food was amazing! Strongly recommend if you are looking for not only kebab but also proper traditional Turkish food. Vegetarian options were so delicious we could eat them all day.

Quality has deteriorated greatly, and adana tastes different than before, I also ordered a dish of shawarma with adana and the quantity of shawarma was gone in 2 bites. This is also being cut.

Service, customer friendliness and is really top notch. Deserves more than 5 stars. Compliments to owner Faruk, chef Alp and all staff members.

Foods were delicious. The waiters were friendly.

Chic restaurant with tasty food. Also nice for small parties.

Tasty and definitely worth repeating. Prices are also normal and the chef is attentive if you want certain changes, that is possible

Beste Turkse restaurant van en in Amsterdam, heerlijke schotels en eten! De mix vlees met friet en rijst waren perfect, de Adana is zeer lekker. Het is zeker een aanrader voor degene die Turks willen eten tijdens hun passage in Amsterdam!

The perfect Turkish restaurant in Amsterdam! Congratulations to the staff and kitchen! The special mix with all meats, rice, fries, etc. was very tasty and all for 55 euros for 2 people. Highly recommended in Amsterdam.

Leziz is a true gem of Turkish cuisine. Consistently delivering quality dishes, their menu boasts a delightful variety sure to please any palate. The staff are incredibly kind, adding warmth to the dining experience. What's more, the prices are very reasonable, making it accessible for all. And let's not forget the baklava - a must-try dessert that perfectly caps off a delicious meal. Leziz is a standout choice for Turkish cuisine in Amsterdam.

Bamya soep is delicious. Kebaps are delicious. My favorite food is Kuşbaşı pide. The staff was really kind. I totally recommend much better than famous Turkse restaurant. Definiteley much more than i expected.

Price/quality ratio is not quite right. Paid €20 for 2 portions of sarma and 2 redbull (6 pieces of sarma per portion) without yogurt and lemon (which is shown in the picture)?

I just ordered a mix grill and loved it. To be repeated. Very friendly and the atmosphere is good.

Delicious saç kavurma. I look forward to seeing you again soon!

Always delicious food, definitely recommended.

Quality of the meat dishes is disappointing Not worth repeating

The food is excellent, the atmosphere is a bit cold

Tesadüfen girdik özellikle geldigimiz bi yer degildi ama çok memnun kaldık özellikle personel güler yüzlüydü çok hoş bi ortamdı kerst olmasına ragmen kalabalık degıldı. Ve yemekler cabuk geldı. Altında mumluk vardı yemegın böylece sıcak kaldı

Zeker een aanrader eten was heerlijk service was perfect. Ik raad het zeker iedereen aan om hier te eten.

Vandaag met familie ontbeten bij Leziz, het was super! Het eten, de hoeveelheid, de wijze waarop het was geserveerd en de gastvrijheid van personeel zijn opvallend positief in deze tijd.

Wonderful taste, friendly staff. Thanks. See you soon insha'Allah.

Lekker eten, vriendelijk bediening,

Yenekleri harikayd i sabahki personel çok iyiydi bundan sonra benim restorantim burasu,👍👍👍👍👍👍

Wij hebben heerlijk gegeten. Het personeel is super vriendelijk. Het was gelukkig niet super druk.

Lekkerste shoarma die ik ooit heb gegeten

Ik ben super blij met de gerechten En met de personelen

Beste authentieke restaurant in Amsterdam!

Amsterdam’a geldiğinizde keyifle helal yemek yiyebileceğiniz bir yer. Kelle paça çorbaları efsaneydi, Ali Nazik de çok çok lezzetliydi. Herkes çok ilgiliydi. Namaz kılma yerleri de var ve bu beni ayrıca mutlu etti. Herşeyiyle mükemmel di…

İlk defa geldi falat Kesinliklee mükemmel bir yer temizliği hizmeti güler yüzlülüğü yemek lezzetleri herşeyiyle memnun kalabileceğiniz bir işletme. Tebrik ediyorum.. Türk lezzetlerini bulabildiğim için ayrıca mutlu oldum.

Un environnement magnifique, spacieux et délicieux où vous pouvez aller en famille, je le recommanderais certainement avec son personnel fiable et souriant.
