About this spot
Berlin Tantuni delivers the authentic taste of Istanbul's famous open-faced sandwich directly into Neukölln, where the meat is shaved fresh from a spinning vertical spit right before you order. You must try the classic tantuni with its distinctive charred edges and crispy fried eggplant, served alongside spicy garlic sauce that cuts through the rich lamb fat.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the 'extra' fried eggplant to ensure your sandwich has enough crunch to balance the tender meat.
- Ask for a side of plain yogurt if you want to cool down the intense heat of the harissa-spiced lamb.
- Save room for the traditional pomegranate molasses dessert, which is the perfect sweet finish to this savory meal.
