This place has been popping. Sugarland has been quite a buzz about this restaurant, but what is it really about?German Doner Kebab (GDK) is a chain, with locations across the US, and various different countries. I would honestly call it a Mediterranean Fusion Fast Food place. Inside, the fast food place is pretty neat, and very eye appealing. There is seating outside and inside. So, in total transparency, I actually came to this restaurant the first month when they opened. The hype was REAL, this place was insanely packed. We ordered various things off the menu, they took our order, gave us our number, and we sat outside (since it was the only seating available). We waited an HOUR, and never got our food. 40 minutes in, they came outside and gave us free spring rolls, due to the long wait. It was odd. After the hour passed, they told us that they had completely run out of the food. The manager came to apologize, told us that they didn't predict the hype they would get in the area, immediately refunded my food, and gave me a bunch of coupons to return. Since I'm a reasonable person, I completely understood where they were coming from. I had no quarrel with these folks, and last week I decided to give them a second chance (plus I had to put those coupons to use). This time around, the staff was friendly, we ordered a Doner Krunch Burger and a Doner Wrap. Since I had a terrible first visit, they also threw in some complimentary Spring Rolls. The food was descent. The Doner Krunch Burger made us laugh, because it looks like something you would make at your house as a kid. It literally is a sandwich with Doritos crushed into it. The Doner Wrap was great , with plenty of veggies and meat in it.On both visits to this place, the Spring Rolls have been Superb! The sauces they come with are good too, and I'd definitely recommend snagging those. Overall, I enjoyed my experience, and the staff are friendly. Do I feel like this place is overhyped? No doubt! Its just fast food, but its fun and on the healthier side of things. I'd come back!
