Doner kebabs in Utah?

[r_u_s_t_b_u_c_k_e_t]

I ate at this place the other day:

They do "al Pastor" which apparently is the Mexican version of doner kebab:

I had the nachos and my buddy had a chimichanga, both "al pastor". It's not exactly what you're looking for, but I thought it was really good.

Well, if you can't find doner kebaps then I got a couple of mighty fine, devilish tips for you.

Tip 1: the middle eastern people other than the Turks love to eat doner kebap too. The difference being, it's called shawarma down there. So barring wee variations it is basically the same food. The devil even took his time and googled it for you; voila shawarma a.k.a. doner kebap in salt lake city:

Tip 2: Devil's moles informed him that one of the biggest doner kebap fans in the world, Memo Okur, used to still his cravings at a place called Atlantic Cafe Market. Although it is called Gyros down there, which is normally not authentic since Greek's meat of preference is pork, this one seems to be legit as it is made from lamb and beef.

Thanks to both of the last two posters! Jazzmanian devil's suggestions in particular seem helpful and I'll definitely try out some of those restaurants next time I'm in SLC (I live in Utah County).

El Mexiquense is just off the freeway in AF. I'll see you there.

Best place I've found so far:

Greek City Grill
6165 Highland Drive
Salt Lake City, UT 84121

Gyros rather than Doner Kebabs, but shaved off of the vertical spit with a yogurt sauce, so basically the same type of thing.

I do live in Switzerland and they do have the best Doner Kebabs in the world!

The best doner in Germany (that I've had) is Mufasta's in Berlin and it's made from chicken.

Do y'all have 'Donair shops' in Murika? Cuz they're legit all over the place here in Edmonton.


It isn't a full-fledged Döner Kebab-- it has Döner meat, but it is put into a wrap, and covered in 'sweet sauce', or Donair sauce.


I always figured this was a North America thing, but some quick searching is telling me that Donairs were made in Atlantic Canada. Huh.

FYI the Döners in Germany >>>>> whatever the hell we make here. Gods, I haven't been to Germany since I was 14. CANNOT WAIT to get my hands on a Döner whenever I go back
