Reviews of Spitz - Minneapolis Restaurant | Bar - Mediterranean Food & More - Takeout or Dine-In
Vincent Norton
This is the best Mediterranean restaurant I have ever visited in my entire life. No other Mediterranean restaurant has meat better seasoned, fillings so flavorful, and sauce so amazing. I had a wonderful Mediterranean wrap with a fresh Greek salad. Absolutely stunning, and the atmosphere only added to it. Surprisingly roomy, this small bar/restaurant is a perfect fusion of old world food and new world décor. On top of all of this, the staff was beyond nice and the food was extremely quick. I will be going back here, again and again.
Cyrus Rezvanifar
Very tasty food and nice atmosphere. I tried the Street Cart Fries with Beef and Lamb Döner and really enjoyed it. My friends had the Beef and Lamb Wrap and liked it, but not quite liked the Falafel wrap. For healthy options, their Mediterranean style salads are REALLY good! Overall, tasty food with fair prices and decent portions, will definitely be back to try more menu items!
Linh Nguyen
We went there during happy hours. Drinks were well mixed. We got an appetizer to share. Berliner wrap is good and decent portion size. Fast service and nice space.
Ann C
Super cool restaurant with great food! Cool laid back vibe. Very friendly staff who were knowledgeable of gluten free options. Good selection of beers and cocktails. A nice happy hour special. Definitely will go back to try more delicious menu items!
akshay reddy
My friend suggested this and this has truly amazing food. If you take a combo is really good enough for two. Loved the way they prepared the food. I would have loved a little bit spicy in the wrap sauces, but that’s my thought. They food was ready very quick and we had good time finishing the food.
Peter Schmidt
I had the Döner Basket. It was tasty but nothing like real Turkish Döner, it was only American style gyro meat, nothing else, so I was disappointed right off the bat because I love real Döner. Don't call it a Döner when it's not! It was also very french fries heavy. The dish was more than half filled with french fries and less than half was salad and meat (the falafel ball was missing too). I wish they'd adjust the ratio a little to maybe 1/3 fries, 1/3 meat and 1/3 salad, especially for $14 plus tax. The other thing that bothered me was that it was very hard to eat because it was piled into this baking pan and stuff kept falling out while I was trying to eat it. Overall not something I would get again but I'd be willing to come back and try the Street Greek Gyro.
My wife had the Berliner Bowl with the Chicken Shawarma. I really didn't like the taste of it and it was cold, I like warm dishes. The chicken was a little on the scarce side and the pickled onions were too spicy for my wife. She said she liked the whole thing but she also said that she would not order it again. We both would like to come back and try a wrap and the sweet potato fries.
Dan Cannon
Love this place. The food is unique and very delicious and the home made cocktails are excellent. The staff are all very friendly. I've always had a great experience just hanging out at the bar.
Emily Ottinger
I love Spitz! Great atmosphere with interesting murals and records everywhere. Music and lighting just add to the scene and make it such a fun experience! Food is always great. I get the street art wrap with lamb doner. Like a glorified gyro :). I love it. Fries are crunchy perfection and the garlic aioli sauce.. *chefs kiss*. Employees are friendly and helpful. They have games and a shuffleboard table to keep it fun while you're waiting for your food. This place never disappoints.
Joel Bartlett
Spitz is Mediterranean street food inspired, which means delicious wraps and bowls with Greek flair. Good MN craft beers on tap. Chill to cool music and Prince-centric graffiti wall art. A NE MPLS mainstay.
Charlotte Richards
Lovely lunch spot- will be back! I had a Berliner Bowl with GF/DF modifications and rice, and my partner had a Berliner Wrap. We were both really pleased with our meals. It wasn’t super busy for a late lunch and the decor was really fun.
Erica Morris
Coming from Germany, I was thrilled to find a döner option in the Twin Cities. The döner salad is delicious, and the fries (with garlic aioli!) are some of the best in town.
Santosh Sulibhavi
Real good food at a fair price. The wraps are huge and the drinks are ok. They have special drinks and beers. Can take a random shot at a new beer too. They gave a sampler for us to be sure on what we take. There's parking in the back to avoid a little hassle
Jen Roberts
Yummy Mediterranean street food with great local beers on tap along with yummy Sangria! The garlic aioli and fries (get a mix of both the waffle & regular!) are delicious.
Sruthi Venkataramanababu
Edit : We visited this place once again after 6 months and had a great experience this time too. We ordered a vegan wrap, a sangria, mixed fries and a baklava. Photos are from the more recent visit.
Had a great experience here. Went our for a weekday dinner. Easy to order and we got our food pretty quickly. We ordered one Berliner wrap with falafel and one vegan wrap. Both were delicious. We also really liked their basket of mixed fries ( potato fries and sweet potato waffle fries), the seasoning on them tasted superb and they were perfectly seasoned too.
Their patio is pet friendly !
Kendall Wiggins
Shared the Doquitos and Street Fries - we were blown away by how delicious they were. The bartender was kind and gave us great recommendations for our weekend in Minneapolis. Wish there were Spitz where we live!
Allison Pearson
I have never had a more perfect wrap- I chose lamb
The falafel was phenomenal, and the French fries were just as perfect as their wrap!
It is worth coming in for a visit. A very cool space created with so much intention.
Malachi Dornfeld
Delicious, wholesome, and energizing!
I lived in Germany for five months, so I wanted to find a Döner like meal. This is the closest thing I have found yet. The wraps were filled with flavor, fresh ingredients, and tasty sauces!
Orteel4 o
Ive been in town for about 2 weeks and Ive ordered 4 times already. Got the vegan wrap and added pickled onions. This place is amazing. Super flavorful and fresh. Every time I order through ubereats it gets here so quick. Huge portions too. I usually eat half and the next for later. Will be ordering to take with me when I leave next week. Thanks to all the wonderful staff. I picked up my last order and nice place.
Amanda R
New favorite place right here!! Delicious food, great atmosphere with old school music and decorations honoring the classics. Mediterranean food, we ordered the unicorn baklava along with two wraps and fries that came with a delicious dipping sauce. Highly recommend!! Oh and can’t forget their bloody mary’s!! I’m a huge fanatic for bloodies and theirs were better than the ones I make at home. 😋
Rachael Acevedo-Hoffmann
I had a wrap, which was very good, but my husband got the fries topped with lamb meat, and OH MY GOD! SO TASTY! Also enjoyed the ambience as a nice place to hang out with a friend. Very casual by ordering at the front, walking to your table with a number, and they'll bring it out to you. Also seemed to have a good variety of beer options and a couple of cocktails if you are into that.
Kaci Brown
My favorite spot to get gyros- partially because they're delicious but a big part of it is their fried pita bread my FAVORITE thing in the menu! So good. Their gyros taste great too, great balance of sauces and well flavored meat and still good air fried the next day.
My husband tried the wraps and they're okay, i like the gyros best. Get an extra side of tzatziki!
MOE Saadi
Must see inside , very nice and happy.
The food is amazing , they have a A variety of food items that you won’t find somewhere else, you definitely need to see.
Drinks are also signature drinks with tons of amazing flavors:)
Love it and will come back :)
Nina Cicero-Soles
Yummy!! Especially the fries. Great atmosphere (cute but not in a fake, trendy way). They have games including never have i ever, cards against humanity, and Catan! Friendly service, and I believe that all the beers on tap are local which is extra cool! Overall it has a very authentic Minneapolis feel from the beer to small details like Prince wall art!
LReyes9044
Solid gyros and their red sauce on the street gyro is amazing with the fries
A little pricey but it is good.
One street gyro combo and falafel salad was 31 after tax
Johnathon Wengel
I’ve been here several times for lunch. Everything I’ve tried has been great! Very fresh vegetables, good flavor and large portions. I usually sit at the bar - the bartenders are super friendly and helpful!
HersheeKyss
1st time on Minneapolis and decided to go here because it was close to my hotel and the reviews were great. When I arrived I hurried and ordered drinks because happy hour ended in 3 mins then I was told the menus were behind me and it was self seating. Well after sitting there for 25 mins I went back to the register to ask why no one had taken my order only to be told they don't come take orders I am to order at the register, well that would've been nice to know when I ordered my drinks and was told to seat myself. The fried were Amazing but the wrap left a lot to be desired. There was barely any meat whatsoever (posted a pic for reference) just lots of cucumbers and cabbage mix. I would've been better off adding meat on top of the fries and calling it a day. Nice ambience and atmosphere and my drinks were good as well. I'd go back but for the fries and maybe try something else buy definitely no more wraps.
Whit R
Food was really good, big portions. I wish they would add more meat to the wraps but I suppose I could order extra. Nice fresh place.
Bree Yard
Bartender was super friendly, great environment. It's setup to be a like a hip bar. It was really my scene but was very clean ,service was quick, all food and drinks were good. No bad things to say just not a place i personally would visit often. Seemed to be a very niche bar, did not seem super welcoming to my gender nonconforming presentation.
Joey
Very good food, but slightly pricey. Chicken was delicious & flavorful, but too dry. They say that one order of falafel comes with hummus so I ordered 3 of them, but then only got 1 small side of hummus which was a bummer & not enough. The baklava is only 4x1x1 inches long which initially seems small, but it's incredibly sweet & rich so the small size was perfect. I know that baklava is supposed to be very sweet & oily, but it would've been nice if they cut down on both the sugar & oil by half.
Ashley Perlock
First time coming here and the food was amazing. We got the Street Cart wrap and the Zesty Feta wrap, along with a side of sweet potato waffle fries. Best waffle fries we’ve ever had. Service was fast and friendly. We’ll definitely be coming back!
Agustin Murillo
People here are amazing 👏 food is very tasty and worth the money. Great atmosphere 👌 I'd 100% recommend and go back! Good happy hour! ☺️
cairo shetka
A great spot with a relaxed environment. Can't complain about the food and there is an awesome drink selection including local taps, cocktails, and 3 different sangria's. Great spot for an upscale but casual get together.
Chris Valenty
The sweet potato fries with garlic aioli were delicious!
Stacy Welle
So, so good! It's got a fun atmosphere, great food, beer/drinks, fruit infused water, and an enture care of games! What more could a person want? I get the bowl with the falafel almost every single time, but I've tried the wraps, which are good as well and the fries are so yummy! It's an "order at the counter and they bring your good out to you" type of place. Lots of seating options as well!
Jack Johnson
Love this place, fantastic good. The dip for the fries is amazing. And free water that has fruit in it!
Andrea Hannem
Yummmm! Having spent many trips in Europe with a late night stop for a döner; we have craved that delicacy stateside. It wasn’t until recently we discovered spitz, with craft customizable döner kabobs plus a great happy hour. Multiple local drafts. And amazing food. The space is eclectic and they have off street parking! Cannot wait to go back
David Thomas-Jensen
Nice a unique variation on the Gyro, a German-Turkish version and the prices are quite nice, set inside a very well appointed and cozy yet large and relaxing environment. The reclaimed and rough edged tables are amazing and aesthetic, as is the modern ecclectic simplicity of the shop-light chandelier. This place is another complement to the southeastern edge of a Food Paradise that stretches the length of Northeast Minneapolis. This is The very beginning of that elegant and pleasant food paradise. They also serve up home made sangria concoctions in their full bar. I could see a summer biking date or a break from a window shopping expedition across the areas concentration of botiques and shops.
Aaron Mills
Went to dinner here with a small group as my brother recommended it. All of the food was super fresh and they had a great drink selection. They also had a water bar that was pretty refreshing. Would definitely go back!
Ekaterina Novikova
We stopped by for a lunch and it’s 10/10! Delicious Greek meals, enjoyed the atmosphere inside as well! Crazy amount of food for its price. Recommend for a visit
brian cunningham
I love this place. Food was fantastic and the sauces, good gravy, the sauces! This is one of my new favorites!
Ashley Mages
Everything tasted incredible. I don't think there is a bad thing on the menu. They were able to set us up with a large group last minute and were very friendly.
Lee Switzenberg
We were a group of 5 the order time was quick for three of the 5 meals. The Greek pita sandwiches came 25 minutes later than the other meals, after asking twice. No explanation or apology given. The atmosphere is pleasant and employees are friendly. I definitely recommend trying it.
Nina E Ottman
Stopped here for a quick bite and was SHOCKED how delicious the food was. My husband and I were still talking about it a week later. I was especially impressed with their tzatziki sauce - so flavorful!
Jovan Milakovic
Definitely remembered place to visit when you are in Minneapolis, I had this amazing zesty wrap with lamp combo with delicious fries and spice sauce. Ambient is really nice, music is on point with old school rock. 👌😁
Michael Bellotti
I always get the Medi wrap with chicken and it’s always freaking amazing. Cool atmosphere. The parking kind of sucks during peak times so be prepared for that. I go here a lot and it’s never been bad.
Abby B.
Ordered the Berliner Döner wrap with beef & lamb--would highly recommend! Great flavors, packed with crisp veggies and accompanied by delicious sauces. Next time, I'd get the bowl--not the wrap. The wrap stuck to the paper and I had to empty the contents into a bowl anyhow.
Noah Lucas
Trendy Mediterranean. Amazing food, nice staff, and fun/social environment. Great location and fun games to play inside. Highly recommend! My favorite is the street car doner.
Paige Magliocco
The food here is incredible. No-frills, just amazing tasting food you can eat in house or take-out. Think of the best food truck wrap you've ever eaten, that is this, but more options and places to sit. Staff is friendly. Sangria is delish.
Rachel Winsor
This is my favorite place in Minneapolis! The street cart doner with beer & lamb is drool worthy, and you can add a little kick by asking for the chili sauce in there. Awesome fries - would recommend getting the mix of regular and sweet potato. When I’m really looking to treat myself, the sangria options are a great addition to my meal.
I also love the games they have here - a few work friends and I used Never Have I Ever as a conversation starter, and it took the pressure off of us to come up with topics. Also very jealous of the people we saw playing Battleship. They have Catan, CAH, Uno, playing cards, etc.
The gist is: this place has it all. If you want to have a fun time and eat yummy food, look no further.
Cory Mezzenga
Time and time again, spitz provides awesome unique foods, great portion sizes, friendly service and a neat atmosphere. Definitely recommend checking it out for a quick casual lunch spot!
Laura Newland (Herweyer)
The White and Season Sangrias were very light and refreshing. I went with the Spicy Döner, however I would defiantly go with the Street Cart Döner next time. The waitress was extremely nice, over all the food and drinks were great! Cant wait to visit again!
def rabbit
Actually I'm impressed, wonderful menu with an in lightening staff. If you like fries, this establishment will keep you on your toes. Hands down good food.
Amanda Ruddle
Always a favorite in the area. Relaxed fast casual vibe that always has lovely bar service also. Good drinks and great food. Love their pita strips!! Vegan options galore and a decent happy hour with good local brews and craft cocktails! Highly recommend if you haven't been!
Blake Ogle
Such a great place!!! Consistent and very friendly staff, great food and great environment! Get the Gyro, you won’t regret it!
Rami Hritani
Nice variety of healthy food and amazing flavors!!!! Highly recommend it! Try the sweet potato fries! They’re delicious
C Peterson
LIGHTS OUT. Fresh and delicious Mediterranean fusion, with layers of flavor. I had the "Remix" bowl with beef and lamb strips and it was light, but filling with a gently sauced quinoa base, cukes, chick peas (both marinated and crispy), slaw, and several other accoutrements I can't recall but they all complimented each other wonderfully! The service was friendly and very attentive. They also had a great selection of local libations, house sangrias (4 flavors) and a well thought out cocktail selection. I will be back with friends or whenever I'm in the area!
Amanda Bremner
Amazing! Best food I've had in many years. This quickly joined my top restaurants list. The food was amazing. The meat was flavorful and now I believe all pita bread should be fried- next level. We will definitely go again even though we live 2 hours from Spitz.
Victoria
The staff here are always very friendly and personable. Have never tried the food, but the drinks great
Anahita Mobaseri
Love it.
Sheena Curry
This is a really fun place with a great vibe. I had the street car wrap with some falafel and it was delicious! Menu isn't overly extensive, but sometimes that's a good thing and they do have quite a few veggie options. If you love Mediterranean food give it a shot!
David O'Connor
I have had them twice. The first time I was blown away at the quality and portion size. I was super happy with my order.
So I recommend it to my co-workers and we all get dinner there. The food was still great, but the portions were smaller. Unfortunately they missed one of the things we ordered and all the drinks. I called told them about it. They offered a refund on the missing things. It has been two weeks still nothing back from them.
The first visit was a 5 out of 5, the second was a 1 out of 5. So split the difference and 3 out of 5.
Courtney Tuttle
I flippin love this place. When my spouse and I are unsure about where to get food, 9/10 times we end up at Spitz. We've lived in South Mpls, North Mpls, and now Golden Valley, and it's still a favorite spot. Great happy hour, healthful yet delicious food, attentive staff, and I always leave happy.
Lukas Olson
Finally! Ever since living in Germany I have been searching for a dürüm döner that lives up to the street food of Berlin. Not only does Spitz have a tantalizing variety of döners, but also they have a large assortment of card and board games and a shuffleboard table all nestled into a comfortable bar with a nice atmosphere and a parking lot.
Adelaide Zibrowski
Good food, amazing sauce. Whatever sauce they give you with your fries is enough to keep my coming back. I haven’t gotten the chance to dine in yet, but the atmosphere seems very nice.
Infant Raj
Mediterranean street food with a modern concept. Great place to stop by for a quick bite in a cool ambience. They have a small menu so it is easy to choose from without knowing where to start. And an A+ for the sweet potato fries 😄 …
Ethan Lovdahl
Love this place. Found it at random and now everytime we visit the cities is a must stop destination. We are Vegan and they have options for us and many more delicious options for those that are not vegan. Highly recommend!
Victoria Parrott
One of my regular favorites - the doners are the best I’ve had in America and their sweet potato fries are to die for. Also a great bar for both drinks and games. Would recommend!!
Ben Ernst
The hangover bowl is good! Only problem the spot has a, “Yuppie” vibe to it. Not a fan of the gentrification that they’re trying to do for certain areas of Northeast Minneapolis.
Sami Tangu
Very good food. All their special meals taste good too. But I feel they are a bit pricey compared to many other Mediterranean restaurants in the town. Managed to get a picture of the happy hour menu which was not listed in their website.
Joyce La Padula
Stopped here on a whim. Vegan options on the menu was thrilling. You seat yourself and order at the counter so no table service. Decor very cool.
Peter JH
3 guests state: The wrap was okay. The salad very good. The gluten free option (ask for it) was amazing.
Nicholas Willette
Delicious!
Had no idea of this place till I walked by the other day.
The wrap and fries I got were very yummy and I am likely going back soon to try some more things!
Great spin on Mediterranean food
Alexandra Crawford
sweet potato fries are hands down the best things ever! come check it out
Jake Hemmesch
Food was really good and filling, it was however kind of spendy, you can split and side between two people because they are good sized portions. A really cool vibe inside, with table games as well.
Carl Weber
The food is so good, but it's ALWAYS cold. We just waited 45 minutes passed when it was supposed to be ready, and it was cold. We consistently have to put it in the oven the moment we bring it home. Great food/menu/options, but they're relying on how delightful it is to negate giving people warm food.
MaryTerese Schifsky
Got together with a college friend and had a wonderful dinner here! Had one of their special wine drinks, which was fabulous. My Mediterranean bowl was wonderful. I wouldn't hesitate to come back there again!
Mikalia Bradberry
From the time I walked into this establishment to the time I got home with my order and tasted it, I had the BEST EXPERIENCE. It rarely happens where you walk through the door and have an all around great time. The restaurant is so clean and I love the vibe. The person taking my order was so kind and helpful. While I was waiting to order, someone kindly approached me asking if I had a to-go order, ready to help me! As I waited for my food, I noticed how diligent the staff were in the cleaning of the tables, menus, bar, etc. On top of all that my food was sooo good, filling, flavorful and the menu is so vibrant! I just went back tonight for my second time and once again everything was great.
Amber Dahl
Absolutely love Spitz. Amazing food and really chill atmosphere.
Weston Eck
Really delicious Mediterranean. It was a bit pricey but it tasted so good and it was a lot of food so plenty of bang for your buck
Brent
If you like a variety of greek choices this is the place. Fresh ingredients overflowing on your basket. It was delicious and I will be back!
Danielle Boerboom
Wonderful restaurant to get some amazing street food and hang with your friends. My family and I spent a couple hours enjoying the welcoming atmosphere while watching a thunderstorm at a window table. The fun decor, music, and style makes us excited to come back for drinks and card games with friends. Will be back soon!!
Matthew Bouvier
I've lived right around the corner from this place for 8 months and am just now trying it. The food is delicious! Better late than never.
Salina
I order this randomly on uber eats and it changed my life! Like what is this magic? How will I ever eat anything else ever again????????????!!! Magic! So freakin good!!!!!
Eric Buck
I've ordered from Spitz via Doordash several times and really enjoyed the food. I came in-person on a date the other night and the atmosphere was even better than I imagined!
Spitz has great food and a released, fun atmosphere with vinyl record cover walls and plenty of great music on the speakers.
Suzy B
Service was fast for lunch to go. So yummy!
Tessa
Such a yummy, fresh, healthy restaurant option in the neighborhood. One of my favorites. I've tried a lot of options on the menu and haven't found anything I dislike. Considering less than healthy options their sweet potatoes fries are the best I've ever had and the dipping sauce for the fries is awesome. All their sauces are spot on. And you can't go wrong with their sangria either.
Adam Janecke
Loved it. Great food and quantity for what you pay for. We got their wraps, quinoa salad and pita/hummus sides and they were great. I would highly recommend this place to other people who are looking for mediterranean food. In my opinion this place is a better version of naughty Greek.
Justin Norman
Wonderful, spacious eating environment with great colors and spraypainted art on the walls. Many of the veggie bowl dishes seemed very similar ingredients wise, but the one I got was quite tasty. The falafel was pretty dry but otherwise everything was great. The hummus and pita chips were unique and delicious, even though the hummus portion was pretty small. There’s a very fun table game here as well that I had a lot of fun with.
Adelice Eaves
This place is absolutely fantastic. I ordered from them online, and the food was so good I made one of my friends come try it with me in person!
The portion sizes are massive for the price, the staff is super friendly, everything tastes fresh and homemade, and the vibes are absolutely immaculate.
Definitely a new place added to our "idk what to eat" roster
Sydney N
Consistently good, fresh food in generous portion sizes. Highly recommend the harissa on the side, absolutely delicious on everything. Choices for everyone - vegetarian and vegan options without modifications. Parking is a bit of a nightmare which makes it hard for pickup, but a solid lunch or dinner option overall.
Andrea Mitchell
Really great food that I felt good about eating. Fun vibe and terrific service.
Peter Brady
One of my favorite casual places for lunch or an early dinner in North East! Always excellent!
Laura Graves
Great Mediterranean food! Yum
Charlotte Smith
If you have had a doner in Berlin, this one was as close as I have come BY FAR in the USA. The big pluses for me: quality ingredients, huge portions that are totally shareable, did not give me a hard time about some modifications/additions I asked for, and the place had an easy charm/vibe.
София Ровинская
Amazing design and atmosphere, huge portions, tasty drinks. Extremely nice stuff
J Klimek
have a really good selection of vegetarian options. the fries here are amazing even cold
shahid hussain
One of the best Mediterranean restaurants I ever had!
But they forgot our drinks in togo 😂 …
Luna Maldonado
Where to begin? There are so many reasons to try this restaurant! From the strong drinks, and hearty portions to the bold flavorful sauces! There is something for everyone! The flavor is there and the profiles do not disappoint! My doquitos were on the over cooked side so for that reason I can't give the 5 stars however I will be bringing my husband back for a second try and if all goes well I'll update my rating then.
Rebecca Schriner
Phenomenal Mediterranean food! Spitz was recommended by a St. Paul friend, and the doquitos were delicious - each ingredient complemented the next. With casual dining and opportunity to order great, low-cost food and drinks at the counter before sitting, it was a great spot downtown to grab dinner with friends.
Hannah Jacobson
Nice place to have a casual dinner. I get the Street Cart Doner everytime and the fries are amazing! Love this place!!
Dan Trockman
As good as any Falafel I've had in the Middle East or Europe but with better music. Also a great place for family and friends to eat together.
Danielle
The doner street wrap was everything I hoped it would be and more. Lots of fresh veggies, meat, and delicious sauce. Both fry options were great too! And the garlic aioli is 🔥 …
Leandra Haley
Great food and prices. Getting Spitz is a staple in our household. The street cart doner and fries is my go to, so tasty! Fast and friendly service whether it is to go or eating in. Cool, fun atmosphere and good happy hour specials. Would definitely recommend this place!
DG Martin
Great food. Tasty cocktails and friendly service!
lil strawberry
The Donner street cart wraps are SO GOOD. Definitely worth the stop, but if you're doing take out I'd reccomend ordering online.
Sarah Duncan
Good food, though it took a bit to get to the register.
Brandon V
I have not eaten here before. I knew nothing about the food type and came here based on the name.
I loved this place. I'm just blown away at how good the food was. I enjoyed the fries loaded with chicken and a delightful garlic aioli sauce that just makes my mouth water thinking about it. The portions were larger then I anticipated and just packed to the brim in quantity and flavor!
The staff were phenomenal, the gal working was working hard cleaning and attending the patrons. Tables are set up in a way to keep distance, masks enforced.
Try the sweet potato fries. Im hooked!
Derek P.
The food here is great and it has a nice funky atmosphere. I'm definitely going back!
Monica Maurer
The food is amazing. Can't say enough good things about it. It's so flavorful. The wraps are definitely my favorite. I would highly recommend.
My only complaint is the music is always super loud and the staff isn't thrilled about turning it down a little when asked. I feel bad for anyone who is even slightly hearing impaired as it's already difficult for me to have a conversation.
Lucas Ladenthin
The drinks and apps were super on point. Their wrap game is weak though. Very dry and way too much veg. I'd my first bite is all veggies and I didn't order the veggie wrap then bygmfu.
Charles
Try the Zesty Feta Wrap! So good! Service was fantastic, friendly people, fun atmosphere. Great place for a date night.
Ty Ebert
I had not had a doner or a kebab before. The food was flavorful and the space itself is super artistic, although small so there wasn't a ton of room after we sat down given how many other people were there. We also had some of the sangria. Parking was not easy. But that's generally true of that part of town. I also hear they deliver, but I'm not sure if that's true.
Alayna Bordner
Loved their wrap with variety of meat/tofu and cabbage. Totally to die for. If you haven't gone here to eat, your missing out. One of the best restraunts I've ever been to! The setting is awesome too, totally cool vibes. Try it!
RedRose Rose
This food taste like heaven, dead azz. Worth every penny. I usually order thru DoorDash & the restaurant has never messed up my order even when it’s customized. If you’re reading this, TRY IT! You won’t regret it unless your taste buds are whack.
Julie Chiu
Fair portions packed with tremendous flavor! Although the fries were greasy, we ate them all! Love the sauces - definitely try the cucumber and Tahini! I'll definitely return for more!
William Toney
Good food, nice staff, recieved wrong drink and when I noted this outloud I wasn't awknowledged or given a replacement. Outside of this though it was an awesome place. Low-light, chill atmosphere with board games and cards at the ready.
John Rust
When asked what I would like to eat in this area, it's always Spitz. Love the food and great drinks. Awesome fries too!
Kelsey Baeten
So much flavor!! I literally drive an hour to eat here and it is always worth it! I love the street cart fries (with regular and sweet potato of course) and my bf always gets a wrap and we split our meals! So good! 🤤 …
Sean Bird
Amazing food, service, music, and decor. Highly recommended for lunch. Sangria is top notch
Carlelynn Elftmann
The food was Amazing! The pomegranate sangria delicious. If you have never been here its a little awkward. You grab a menu and order at the bar. There is a cart for water and I think silverware etc. Another cart full of games. No signs to explain anything and staff was enjoying hanging out with one another but the food so delicious. We had loaded fries with lamb meat and these fried pita things. Yum! Good thing my friend had been here before because I would of walked out and missed the great food.
Erika Staub
Sooo good! Perfect meal wrapped up with some if the best fries I've had in a long time. Dipping sauce for the win!
Zach Pieper
I won't spits for Spitz! Swallow all these nommies, tasty down into my tummies.
Diane Afrooz
I thought the food was delicious and I enjoyed the atmosphere. Seems great for lunch and after work happy hour. The interior decor was vibrant and the large windows were nice to cozy up to. I had the combo fries and salad with the gyro meat. I must have liked it because I ate it all! The crispy garbanzo beans were yummy and I really liked everything.
Denny deBruyn
As someone who lived the last six years in Berlin, I will say their Berlin products are not very "Berlinish". We went there as a family hoping to have our craving for a Berlin Döner fulfilled, and the kids were all pretty disappointed. The food wasn't bad, but at the same time, didn't meet the expectations we had. It was also pretty expensive when compared to the Berlin street food we've come to love so much.
Ben Hastings
Delicious!! The sweet potato fries are heavenly!! The gyro was so good!! I got the spicy one but left out the onions. It is quite spicy!!! But I LOVED it!! They have free self-service infused waters (strawberry was one and the other was cucumber). Just a really tasty and cute place!! They also have shuffleboard.
Jans Visker
Sangria!!! If you love Mediterranean food, 4 different types of sangria, 20+ local brews & a happy hour from 3-7 Spitz should be your next stop.
Dylan
This became one of my favorite spots after a few bites. The food is simply great and the portion sizes are pretty large. Having spent a year in Berlin, the döners are not necessarily representative of a typical Berliner döner. They are more Americanized and adjusted for local tastes. Fries were fantastic, many great sauces, hummus was great. I look forward to coming back and dining in when possible!
Joe Allen
One of our favorite sandwich places. Excellent staff and the food is always consistently delicious. Also we love the home-made Sangria's' - they are just awesome.
Update: just had an order to go; they do a fantastic job, as usual, and this during the pandemic. I can never finish the street car donner; but good news: they hold up so well, even two days later, for a second lunch!
Lauren Ash
Best falafel around!! What I would give for them to open a south Minneapolis location!!
Kayla Warner
It's a great place to gather with friends and have some fun apps! The sweet potato fries are great but last time we went there we ordered a chicken doquito with no onions and we got a beef one covered in onions! We didn't raise an issue, but thought it was a little funny. Other than that, I really like it, the food is good and the sangria variety is great!
Michael Schmidt
The wraps are really tasty, loved the lavash! Nice decor, quick service and friendly staff. Nice selection of protein, everything tasted fresh and the flavors were bright. I also appreciated the simplicity of the menu. I normally don't get too enthusiastic about iced tea, but their blueberry iced tea was the best that I have had in a really long time.
Jennifer Moreno
Pretty yummy - great for takeout, or dine in. Dine in is more on the chill side, drinks there also delicious. Highly recommend the doquitos, that’s my go to lol
Jacqueline Bowker
Food was delish!! Staff stopped by to ask about our experience which was a pleasant surprise!! A little on the spendy side for lunch...46 for two which did include a nice tip! Enjoy!
Zachary Bayerl
The hummus was okay, they entered some of our food wrong then didn't fix it so we checked in and they brought the right stuff when we were already done eating. Not really Greek themed, the food is somewhat Greek themed, the only thing worth ordering here is the Daquitos and the desserts, everything else we tried was mediocre
Tommy S
The gyros and doners are so good! Love their spicy feta sauce. Always fresh and good. One of my favorite meals in the area.
Ryan Miller
This was pretty good middle eastern food. The street fries are awesome so is the Mediterranean wrap. They also have a wide selection of sangria including a seasonal one.
Worth a visit but a little pricey for 3 meals and 3 sangria was about 70 bucks.
Jack H
This place has awesome doner kebabs. I always get the berliner with spicy sauce. The loaded french fries are a meal in themselves, but if you split them, you can't go wrong. Great local beer selection and always a friendly staff.
Jer R
My wife has known about this place for a while and has wanted to try it, and we finally did last night.
Delivery person was nice and friendly; Food was amazing! The gyro meat at some places can be quite hit n miss but this place is one that gets it right! The loaded fries are so great and their "burrito" is like a healthier alternative to Chipotle. A tad spendier, but worth it for the obvious quality and freshness of everything.
We will guaranteed be ordering this likely once a month as a fun treat!
Lazlo Christiansen
The bowl I got was delicious however I'm giving it 4 stars as my fries that I was excited to try were missing from the bag. The staff was great when I called though and refunded me as I was unable to go back to the store. Will definitely be eating here again!
Bridget Burke
The chef is amazing and very accommodating. I recommend a bowl with chicken. If you like Greek food and gyro bowls this is the place to go.
Devon Dodge
Awesome small menu with surprisingly large portions making it not only super reasonably priced...but also easy to pick a dish that is going to blow your mind. Plenty of protein options to boot. Sangarias are a 10/10...cheap...and pro tip half off on Tuesday game nights. Service was quick...friendly...and attentive. Decor is SUPER chill (Prince mural says it all). Give this place a chance...you won't regret it!
Alexandra N
SO good. I got the Doner basket with an extra side of garlic aioli and it’s honestly my new favorite meal. Definitely ordering from them again! PS their pita is heavenly.
Jacque G
We found this place by accident while walking around the area, and I'm glad we did. This is Turkish street food, which I never had before. The menu is limited to various sandwich wraps with your choice of meat or vegetarian. I had the spicy wrap with lamb, with sweet potato cottage fries on the side and it was absolutely delicious. Servings are quite generous, enough to take half home. There's a full bar as well as soda, lemonade, and other non-alcoholic drinks. Service is casual, you order at the counter and they bring the food to your table. There are free, help-yourself water refills, gently flavored with strawberry or lemon. To-go boxes are are available for the taking. We'll be going back, or ordering from Bite Squad delivery.
Steve Stowers
We really like the food here. We carried out, but would love to come back and sit with a beer and a boardgame (a bunch are provided by Spitz). The food was delicious. We both had bowls, but the undercover winner were the fries and feta dips they had with it. So good!
Vaishnavi Soundar
One of my favorite hangouts to go to. A little on the pricy end but totally worth it. Rotating selection of beers is great. The donor salad and sweet potato fries are the best hands down!
Eric Maciver
Great fresh food vibrant colors a little on the spendy side but you do get quality!
Nancy R
Large craft beer list, unique sangria's, and fantastic food. Portions are huge.
Chiara Caldwell
Best selections of cocktails in the Twin Cities! Seriously! I’m not the biggest fan of drinking alcohol but when I’m in the mood, I ALWAYS come here! The staff is super awesome too!! Definitely try the fries!
Laramie O
Spitz has always been consistently great and we love coming here! A plethora of great menu items - I crave the street cart fries on the regular! The environment is unique and fun, the staff is always friendly, and who doesn’t love four sangria choices? The strawberry basil water is a delightful touch. Highly recommend!
Jenn Wieworka
Food was delicious and quick, had a white sangria which had a nice balance. The vibe of this place was really cool, plenty of people in and out for take out but dine in available with every other table open. Will eat here again!
Rachel Rosebrook
This place was such a surprising treat. A fast casual Mediterranean place specializing in donor we had a basket of fries loaded with practically everything in the house and it was so so so good. Really great drinks too! 8 wish they'd open up a location in Denver.
Megan S
Awesome vibes and decor. The food is amazing. The Berliner wrap is delicious! Best sweet potato fries I’ve ever had. Can’t wait to return and try more.
kelsey livermore
Both food and service was great. They really care to make sure their customers have the best possible experience. Food was great! Veggies were fresh and crispy, and full servings. Will be back for sure
David Orser
Excellent sangria options and happy hour food to share. Beer selection is nice and local though too heavy on IPA. We split the street cart fries (good) and garden bowl which was excellent. Fast easy place for happy hour.
Sydney Long
I wish I could get this place on every street corner like a proper kebab should be. The Berliner style is great as a former Berliner. Love this place
Dylan Barnes-Hansen
Spitz provides a nice variety to the food scene in Northeast. Their wraps and bowls have a freshness to them and a combination of many great flavors. If you're there, look for an opportunity to try one of their sangrias as well. Street cart fries are killer. Free flavored waters and numerous sauces to utilize. A little pricey, but fair and worth the cost.
Seth C
Seriously love this place! The street cart fries...yes, please! Street cart (or really, any) doner? Absolutely. Great drinks, with a weekly cocktail special? Check. Great for lunch or a low key dinner/happy hour. A fave in the cities!
David Mattson
The beer selection puts this fast casual restaurant over the top for me. The food is fantastic and pairing it with a nice craft brew makes for a lovely and not all that expensive dinner. They also do some great sangria and have Groupon offers, making it one of the few truly good restaurants on Groupon in my opinion. Give it a shot if you’re ever in the area. Even tastier if you’ve already had a few drinks.
Tucker MacCallum
Street cart wrap was amazing. I think the guy behind the bar needed a cigarette break though
Kate Weinans
Really delicious snacky foods. Affordable- they have menu items for $5!!!! I tried 2 things, both delicious, and the gal who was stopping to pick up a to go order told me the brunch sandwiches were worth a special weekend trip. Friendly and helpful staff, and delicious GF and dairy free options. I’ll be back.
Ryan Larson
Stopped in with my wife because we were hearing amazing things about this place. The rumors were true and the Doners we had were amazing. The fries were okay, but the Doners were a stand out. Cannot wait to come back.
Parking wasn't an issue because we walked here, so I cannot say anything about that. They did have an extensive beer menu from what I remember as well.
Jack Baker
Spitz is where I head when I need my gyro fix. Great flavors, a large tap list, and a young atmosphere make this a go-to for a casual night out.
David Jackson
this is about the closest I've been able to find to a European kebeb.
Aデビー(Deb)
Usually good in-shop, but delivery orders beware! Its like they don't care since you aren't in their establishment. I always get the street cart fries and I don't understand why I have a different experience every time. Let me explain: sometimes they give me a lot of fries and other times they give me a little, sometimes the fries are crispy and other times they are cold & floppy, sometimes the listen to special instructions and other times they seemingly disregard them. I don't like not knowing what I'm going to get because I opted for delivery. I can live without their fries.
Michael Lucke
Amazing food, great service, good atmosphere. They were clean, they didn't take an excessive amount of time. If you think you might enjoy it, check it out. Great for people who live in downtown Minneapolis. Also has a parking lot which I guess is important in downtown areas
Matthew Burns
Excellent food and great happy hour pricing. My Wife was excited to find a place to get a döner stateside and Spitz definitely did not disappoint!
NS
Fantastic joint! Food is novel and amazing. The bowls in particular are superb. Real cool selection of sangria as well. The decor and vibe is great and service is quick and good.
Todd Leafman
Had a great lunch here. The doner salad, the street car doner and the sweet potato fries were all very tasty. And the restaurant itself is a cool little spot with a decent beer selection and plenty of board games to entertain you. Including my favorite shuffle board!
Joaya
Delicious 😋 good and fast service!
Marcellus Wallace
The food here is great! I always ask for extra spitz in my food. The environment is super chill and the people are really nice! Upon request, they sometimes even spitz directly in my mouth! Soooo delicious!
Julia Walfoort
Awesome food, great beer selection, and really cool atmosphere. I've sat at the bar both times I've eaten here and the service was great - attentive, yet gives you some space before they check in. All the food has been great and I'll definitely be back!
Monica L
Updating my original review from 3 years ago: A great new addition to the NE neighborhood. The meat and veggies are very good and everything tastes fresh.
1 star is lost as some days the wait can be significantly longer than others which can make it a risky choice for lunch folks.
Anne Carroll
Sweet little space with excellent food. Lots of choices for food and a tasty cold hibiscus tea.
Jade Marie
Food was fantastic beer was amazing the vegetables are good quality too. Low wait time cool decor. Over all fantastic place for lunch.
Erin Lynch
Great wraps! Infused water. Nice atmosphere. Parking, not so good.
Franklin Adams
Had the Zesty Doner and it had good flavor but was a little messy. The fries were really good, they give you a nice seasoned dipping sauce for the fries. They also a a great beer selection. The staff was very friendly as well.
Mathew Somlai
I have taken the kids here quite a few times now - after school, before evening rush. They have a great selection of games and we will get a few appetizers and play some games. Recommend the fried chickpeas and olives, pita and dip, and street fries.
Shriya Basu
The food is okay, and there's definitely room for improvement with the fries. I have ordered the doner basket twice and each time the fries were too salty. Also they can use some more manpower. There's often no one behind the counter for more than 5 minutes
Kyle Fuerstenberg
Spitz had been a go to for a quick bite ever since our first visit. 3 things you can always count on while here.
-Awesome ambiance music
-large local beer selection
-outstanding food
...don't forget to get fries with the garlic aioli.
Laura Smith
We went here on a whim last night, and found out they opened the night before. Minneapolis needs a restaurant like this! The food was super yummy and the atmosphere was fun and casual. Super cool artwork inside and friendly staff. I had the Döner "bowl" and sangria. I recommend both. We will be going back often- so glad we found this place!!!!!
Stephanie Anderson
Once I entered the restaurant I had high expectations based on how it looked and the menu, it was even better than I thought it would be. I got the doquitos, it was the perfect balance of fried lavash with fresh fixings, including the freshest feta I've ever eaten. This is my new favorite.
Mary Buck
This has become my current favorite place to go. I was hesitant because I'm a pretty simple eater but a co-worker wanted to try it. Excellent wraps made from very flavorful food. My favorite is the Spicy Doner with a close second of the Zesty Feta Doner. Highly recommend going to this place for food.
Yamini Karandikar
The food was very refreshing and delicious. Cool vibe, decent sangria.
The Fu Fu effect!
Donor Beef and Lamb salad was good to the last bite! Raspberry Iced Tea was refreshing! Great service! Convenient! Beautiful interior! Love the Prince! Awesome!
Brianna Roth
Everything we have gotten here is delicious. Street fries were the highlight this last time. But I think we realized that the reason not too many people sit outside during rush hour...way too noisy. Lots of games and hand shuffleboard available!
Corie Gardner
Loved it! My girlfriend (who is German, most people dont know but Döner kebap was actually invented in 🇩🇪) and I have been looking for a place around here that sells Döner for sooo long and well, this didnt disappoint. The tradition German street Döner is in a slightly different style than here but the taste was spot on. The price point was worth it the staff were awesome. And they had board games and a beautiful astetic. 10/10 would recommend.
Hannah Aderinkomi
If I reviewed solely on the food I would give a 5, but part of the thing is the whole experience...sometimes when I try to place a phone order for those delicious street cart fries with sweet potato it goes to a busy signal...good for them and business but not good for me and sometimes staff can be short on the phone, but I do know the folks at the counter take orders, bar tend, and answer the phone so I do know they have a lot going on. The hummus and pita strips are so tasty...crispy and chewy. Their infused water and sangria refreshing and just right. The garlic aioli on the street cart fries top off that masterpiece.
Anais Long
This place makes me feel not guilty about eating fries. So good. Great atmosphere. Great vegan/ vegetarian options! Yeah I definitely recommend.
Jeff Bakal
Most of the food that our table got was delicious. The lamb was a little bit overcooked but overall not a big deal. A drink selection including the sangrias were nice. We would visit again.
Erin Wagener
Awesome food and really good sangria! Awesome for a quick meal and has happy hour
Chad Erickson
Great food and make sure you try the Sangria while you wait.
Daniel Isaac
Their wraps aren't middle eastern but more European style doner. But the food is still great!
Dropping one star because the bread texture is not great the times I've been there
Meghan
I got a plant based wrap with fries and it was delicious! It was a bit messy so keep that in mind if you don't like messy food. The portion was huge but I like leftovers.
Sarah Yang
Delicious food, good portions and great atmosphere for both small and larger groups. The street car donër is perfect if you're feeling ravenous and I recommend the donër salad for when you're ravenous but also want something refreshing! Doesn't seem like they have a parking lot, but there is plenty of meter parking and a ramp nearby.
Ben “Yung Hinoki” Wu
Fun place to check out, massive wraps, good drinks, nice crunch to each bite of the wrap. My döner was maybe a bit all too crunchy and chewy, I was hoping for some meaty chunks too but all in all lively place and good food. Oh, also not at all a “döner” more of a “dürüm”, but what do I know. Also don’t pronounce döner with the umlaut(even though it’s on the menu), I confused the waitress.
Mysnikol Miller
I'm a big fan of the Doner salad. The pita crisp are salty oily deliciousness! I'll remember to get pictures next time. 😋🤤 …
Navneet Anand
Very creative decor, great food. Wonderful service
Shon is great
Mohamad Khouli
Great selection, friendly staff!
If you like trying new dishes and fusion food, this is worth it!!
Carol Kratzer
I love this place, the food is very good and service is friendly and quick. Great beer selection, crazy good happy hour deals on food and select beers, not just crappy beers, really good ones.
HH favorites are doquitos (cross between a taquito and a gyro) and street car fries. The Berliner sauce is the best!
alyssa zech
Food is tasty, but not spectacular. Except the their pita chips. Wow, I go just for those. Prices are good for NE area. Beer selection is decent, but their sangria is spot on. The ambiance is fun, with a giant tribute to Prince. Spitz also carries a wide variety of games and cards (uno, cards against humanity, exploding kittens, etc) and hosts Family night (mondays) and Game nights (tuesdays).
Armin Nazarinia
Yummy. This place is amazingly tasty with a large menu, unique flavor at a reasonable price. The atmosphere is also great fairly relaxed and you can play board games they have or bring your own. Awesome place to try kind of a hidden gem.
Briana Beck
MMMM so good! Their standard streetcart doner wrap truly is THE BEST, although the Berlin and Mediterranean and salads and baskets and fries and falafel are great too...it's all good! I would definitely recommend getting a wrap rather than a sandwich - it's good bread, but these ingredients are at their best in the thin lavash wraps. Great craft beer selection on tap, sangria, even the water has fresh strawberries or cukes for more delicious! One of the best new foodie fast food places here - they even have a punch card so you can justify going once a week :)
Jeff Shinall
Just got back from lunch at Spitz.
Food and service were both really good. They didn't get my order right at first, but they worked quickly and made it right quickly. Not loving the pink and orange logo and branding, but all else good.
Also, played a little table shuffleboard while waiting for order.
Lastly, inside decor vibe was interesting and laid back.
Cassandra Carter
Absolutely fabulous! The restaurant is colorful and lively. The food is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS and it prepared very quickly. I can’t wait to go back!!!
Mat Pfeifer
Great service and food. The seasonal sangria was phenomenal and Mediterranean donner I got was delicious. They also have vegan options which is a major bonus. I will definitely be going back!
Micah Perzichilli
Was super happy to have this place come into NE. The streetcar doner and doner basket are both delicious and filling. There have been a couple inconsistencies with service and orders, but still a great place to eat in NE. It is order at the counter, however if you sit at the bar the bartender will wait on you. The design of the interior is very unique and cool as well. Good tap list with mostly local stuff and the sangrias are good as well.
Jade B
The server was friendly and cared about my food allergy which was great! The fries were amazingggggg! But I ordered the Mediterranean doner and it was missing the olives and feta cheese, so it was pretty plain.
Lalitha Mareddy
Very good food , music and ambience. We are vegetarians finding decent menu is very difficult. They have vegan option too.
Brooke Hubert
High quality food, delicious, large portions, great vibes, solid soundtrack 10/10 will come again! And ice water with orange slices on tap?!?!?! HERE FOR IT
Robert Knox
Nice cozy, cute atmosphere. I'll definitely go back
Eric Jorgenson
This restaurant is my new NE Minneapolis favorite! Try the spicy doner and works fries amazing! Sit at the bar and ask for Wilson to pore you a beer he's very knowledgeable about the beers and sangria they have on tap! Top notch service!
Dana Itman
The bartender helped us pick out the perfect food! Truck Fries were my favorite. Lots of flavor in all the food. Food I will crave. I rarely say that.
Michael O'Leary
Great Mediterranean restaurant! Food is fantastic and reasonably priced. Great local beer selection. They specialize in Sangria and have wine as well. Decor and music are uban/hip and Minnesota themed.
Kalliopi Panagi
I love their gyro and tzatziki sauce. They also have nice sangria. This is a nice place if you’re a fun of Mediterranean flavors. They also have some great hummus!
Emily Zahasky
Very trendy vibe with cool Prince art work! Love the food, good flavors and fresh ingredients. Highly recommend the hummus! They fry the pita strips and the seasoning in the hummus so delicious.
Jodi Irwin
My lunch order got missed, but multiple people apologized and they offered me a complimentary drink. And the food was so delicious! It was my first visit and the good far outweighed the oversight.
Suzanne Zdrowski
Exquisite. This is such a lovely, quaint restaurant you should put on your "to do" list if you're ever in the area. The staff was great, atmosphere invitingly warm, excellent food/local brew at an exceptional price point. Well done.
StoneAgeBeatMaker651
Great place to hangout, they have a good beer selection as well as freshly made sangria and other cocktails. The doner wraps and fries are to die for. Also has a killer music selection
joe ugo
Food is ok, but not a nice or clean space.
Nate Wilson (Organic Squirrel)
The "Mediterranean street food" is definitely the reason to come here. A bit pricy for what you actually receive, I usually get one of the grilled wraps with either chicken or lamb/gyro meat. (Both quite good!) They also offer 3-4 flavors of Sangria.
Christina K
I'm such a huge fan of this place, everything is so fresh and flavorful. My favorite is the Doner Salad - which is loaded with toppings including crunchy chickpeas, kalamata olives, and feta, among others. I also really love the Daquito - sort of like a big Mediterranean taquito, which is deliciously crisp and topped with fresh veggies and feta. Love the beef and lamb one. Highly recommend Spitz if you are looking for a refreshing, flavorful meal.
Aaron Henderson
Super fantastic döner and Mediterranean-inspired food in a cozy bar/dining restaurant. The space is like the TARDIS, bigger on the inside, so don't assume that you won't find a seat just by looking through window. There's seating at the bar as well as both high and low tables. They have a great draft list of MN brews and the Mediterranean Döner with felafel was incredible (I'm sure the carnivores among us would also delight in the offerings). With very friendly staff to boot, I highly recommend this place.
Casey Palmer
Absolutely delicious! My wife and I order here and always are surprised how good all their items are.
Laurel Green
Super laid back with superb food and a fantastic bar. Street Cart Fries are meant for sharing but make you want to grab the bowl, run to a corner and eat them all yourself.
Fonta Zimm
Honestly amazing. The taquito was to die for 🤤 No complaints. …
Eric Mistry
Great beer selection, tasty food! Bonus tips: happy hour goes until 7 and the free water is usually an infusion! (Strawberry and basil when we went last)
Meghann McAllister-O'Day
Cozy neighborhood spot with tasty Mediterranean options. Their food can be a bit inconsistent when it comes to temperature and ingredients, but it's usually tasty.
Colin Landers
While it helps I like Greek style foods, this place put the right spin for the area on delicious (in my opinion) Greek style food you may find on a NY street corner.
The menu, while slightly confusing to order, is based on doners or wraps with fresh veggies, tzatziki sauce and additional toppings and include salad, fries, sweet potato fries and more as sides. A solid beer selection and even a kid plate that any "plain" food lover would appreciate. This all turns into a delectable and very flavorable menu.
The music, 80's, 90's and atmosphere is a bonus in it's chipotle-esk order first and relax style. The spray paint really adds a "cool" factor since I am a 90's kid.
Overall, awesome place, flavorful food and a great place to eat and chill, very recommendable.
Kevin Haeg
The atmosphere here is top notch. The decor screams minnesota, the music selection is incredible, and the food is unique and delicious. However, all of this is trumped by the customer service. Bridget was wonderful, and inviting.
Aaron Spiegle
Delicious food and sangria. The lone cashier/bartender was positive and not frazzled despite a long line of hungry customers. The food came out in a timely manner and by a different friendly staff member.
Justin Vander Ziel
Delicious mediterranean food with a modern flair in a low-key environment with modern, deconstructionist decor and a huge variety of craft-brewed beer. Games for family fun; bland alternatives for picky eaters and a friendly staff. This place is great!
alexey pederson
Very cool atmosphere. The food comes out very quickly. Extremely tasty with very large portions! Loaded fries are a must.
Leah Anderson
Delicious and healthy food! You get more food than what it looks like, I'm always perfectly full. Oh, and their basil lemon drops are dangerously good. Highly recommend checking it out!
M. S.
A hipster take on Mediterranean. Decent food but it won't satisfy your craving if you're looking for the real deal.
Morgan Redemann
Unique restaurant in Northeast, vinyl and bright colors that pop against the wall, friendly bartender and staff! Was just going to eat bits and pieces of my significant other's meal, but ended up having second dinner at Spitz, it was so good! We ordered the Doquitos in chicken and lamb. I usually do not like lamb, but the spices, flavors (especially the garlic aoili), and texture with the fried lavash bread gave lamb a second chance in my book - delicious! The Doquitos were so good, that I realized mid-meal I had to take a pic and "re-staged" the entrée (it was so good, it's already half gone!). Great interpretation of approachable ethnic food, and a great way to end a summer evening.
Thaddaeus Dahlberg
After being in Germany this Summer I was missing döner. this place has them... and they are good! Of course, I miss the 3 euro street price in Germany as Spitz is 3-4 times that much. Spitz has a great, casual, trendy atmosphere with a nouveau-album cover vibe. The sangria is great too.
Elliot Stein
Some of the most amazing wraps and fries I've ever had. Never disappointed with Spitz. The food is very flavorful and reasonably priced.
Sarah Nelson
One of my favorite places to eat! Not a big menu of food but everything is delicious! Fun atmosphere and lots of games to play! I probably go here too much...
Tom Hoover
Good vibe, nice beer selection. Wife really liked her zesty feta wrap with falafel. My spicy wrap with beef/lamb was just that....absurdly spicy. On par with that loco gringo hot sauce at Chino Latino. The meat was well cooked. The wrap itself was made in the tradition of döners I have had in Europe, in that they layer it in such a way that every bite is consistent. The spice of the sauce just overwhelmed me today. The sweet potato fries were really good. The wrap pita is decent. I have long pined for the bread pouch that they use in Europe, somewhere between a pita and foccacia. Next time I will try the foccacia option and see if it hits closer to the European type.
Paul Hudalla
Decent food and good atmosphere for conversation.
Jim Doolittle
Non-authentic Döner, but still a nice try at the dish. I would recommend the street cart fries over Döner. Foccactia bread isn't the same as a traditional türkisch Döner bread... (you get less stuff). Beer Selection is great.
Ted Jacobs
Great spot. I really like the street cart doner with falafel. I really enjoyed coming here to have a beer and a bite to eat with friends in the before-times. Still legit for takeout.
Brett Hebert
The first thing I thought when I saw a doner kabob place had opened up in the neighborhood was "this is going to be Eurotrip all over again," re: eating one of these things every single night I fail to make a real dinner. I've been able to contain myself somewhat, but the fact remains that this place is the go-to spot for a quick bite to eat, and it helps that their wraps are much higher quality than anything I encountered at street stands from Barcelona to Prague. Try the street cart fries at least once, they aren't healthy but they're worth it.
Erin Grey Kachur
Everything looks amazing! I had the Gyros with lamb/beef and it was out of this world!!
Snow Farmer
Great Doeners here. Comparable to what you'd find in Germany -- almost as good as what you'd find in Spain but not as good as what you'd find in Turkey So for MN, that's really great.
However, they are a bit expensive - $10 for a doener?!?!?! If this restaurant were in Europe, it'd go out of business as doeners are typically priced around $4-7.
Beer menu is vast but pricey.
Joseph Morehead
Great spot for drinks and food, especially if you're into casual games. Uno and another card game I can't recall are located at every table. Plus mini shuffleboard and other games located near the back. Great place, great location, great food and drinks.
Victoria Bayerl
The food was average, but looked nice, the order was not accurate, atmosphere is good, but my margarita was one of the worst I ever had
Lia
I ordered the Street Cart Fries, The Pita Chips with Hummus, and the Street Cart Doner with Beef and Lamb through doordash and even with it being delivery it was phenomenal, usually I get sad tasting fries with delivery, these fries are literally the best fries I've ever had, where has this place been all my life!
Victoria Bayerl
Loved the doquitos, did not like the margarita, the donor and The works fries were decent, hummus is yummy, service was sketchy, brought out the wrong food and then didn't bring us the right food
Erin Nelson
Everything we’ve ever had here has been fantastic.
John Carroll
The worst part about Spitz is having to decide what to get because everything is delicious and worth having. My advice? Come hungry, get everything, and plan on sharing.
Start with a wrap, but which one? The favorite Street Cart Doner stuffed with fried lavish chips is a fantastic and obvious choice, but if you're with a friend or a group, why not get the Berlin Doner with its tangy and delicious red sauce and share them both? Take it to the next level with their Doner with Pommes-- their traditional wrap with choice of meat, garlic aioli, and you guessed it, french fries. What a treat?
But here is where things get tricky: Spitz has the most amazing fries and if you've got a hankerin' for a mound of deliciousness, then skip the side of fries and get an order of the Street Cart Fries. Think french fry nachos topped with spiced mixed meats, fresh veggies, aioli, and feta. Sometimes I feel like I just want an order for myself.
Looking for something a little out of the ordinary? Check out their Doquitos, Mediterranean Style Taquitos! Stuffed with meats or cheese and topped with the lettuce-tomato-feta-aioli goodness.
I'm seriously drooling just writing this! You can't go wrong!
Ashley Feider
Still some kinks to be worked out - e.g. staff hasn't mastered POS or speed (resulting in long wait), the little cup of hummus is an inappropriate portion size. However, the core of their menu (e.g. doners) are very tasty and appropriately priced for the area. Very cool space. Love the shuffle board.
Jupiter Wings
Super friendly staff....affordable food and drinks for 2 people....I had a 22oz beer $bucks for the full flavored ipa....The hostess was super friendly and helpful...10/10 recommended going...next time I will be trying the food
Natasha Matios
Always loved the wraps and the white sangria is amazing!
Jennifer Davis
We enjoyed a wrap and doquitos, like mediterranean taquitos. The decor was worth the visit, it was fun to look around and the music added to the experience. It was family friendly with board games and shuffleboard.
T. D (Qte)
Food is delicious. Staff is perfect. Atmosphere is chill. Decor is just awesome. Modern, street art like!
Kory Petersen
Amazing food with a fun atmosphere. Not much parking, but there's plenty of street parking if you don't mind a short walk. Highly recommend!
Kayla Christenson
I love Spitz! The fries are amazing and it is the closest to Turkish Döner that I can find in Minneapolis. Delicious Döner salad as well :) The atmosphere is relaxed and the music selection is always good!
Oscar Cumpiano
Doquitos are like crack. Once you eat one you will spiral down the rabbit hole of desire. If you are lucky you can afford this addiction. If you arent, you will sell your clothes and car, leaving you running through the streets in the buff looking for the next crunch. The doners are also great.
William Nielsen
Went there for lunch and got the Mediterranean Wrap. Very flavorful and filling! Definitely will go there again.
Sujith Peta
Good place to hangout and play boardgames while having food or drinks. I wish they have more options in menu, you’ll have a slim options if you have any food restrictions like me, I only have chicken for my meat diet.
Tyler Rohweder
Spitz is delicious and fast! They have bar but you don't need it, because they offer these flavored waters that sound really weird but are actually great. For free!
Rafael Laurentin
First place i tried in MN... Amazing! Definitively stop by if you're in the area
Katelyn Hennessey
This place is awesome! Great portions, super comfy. Food is amazing.
CRAFTS & HACKS
Awesome place. My go-to for a great lunch in NE Minneapolis. Also love chatting with Wilson and Sue (pronounced sway). Highly recommended.
Vince P
This is a nice find for me. The food is good, and the happy hour prices are very reasonable.
Jonathan Johnson
99 precent match per Google. Google needs to take that same technology into pairing up people because it seems to work quite well. Definitely plan on coming back for the happy hour. It only goes to 5 so come early.
Julia Roberts
We love the wraps and waffle fries here. Don't forget the side of garlic aioli, it makes everything even more delicious!
Jeremy “Jskalla58” Skalla
Love all their döners. Their Streetcart fries are amazing, I don't know how you can dislike them. + For free spa water as well
hadj osrs
Incredible "not unhappy hour" selection and amazing vegetarian options. A very relaxed atmosphere, perfect for any occasion.
Verena Walther
Any time we go we promise ourselves to be back soon! The food is good - try the Berlin Döner - as is the beer selection and the atmosphere.
Grant Nelson
Love love love this place! Great Mediterranean food and bar.
Thomas Wolf
Got the fries with some toppings. And i wasn't much for Mediterranean food but this was definitely an amazing place to eat. Recommend for sure
Christine Hicks
Currently eating my leftovers from yesterday (the portions are huge!) and it’s just as good today, can’t wait to go back
nidhi sehami
I loved the food... So many vegetarian options as well!
Unbothered By you
Really enjoyed it. Came in 30 min to close and was very happy with outcome. The food it self wasn't heavy and was very flavorful.
Tristan Gustafson
Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in the cities. The food is so delicious and over my many many times eating here I have yet to have a bad experience!
Joseph Nicholas
I've wanted Döner Kebab ever since I heard of it. I was not disappointed! The food was delicious and quickly prepared. Fast and friendly service.
Natan
oh my god delicious mouth explosions.
yummy yummy yummy.
Jon Olsen
Absolutely the best lamb doner around. Love the vibe and atmosphere. Awesome art, games, and the staff is always great too!
Ayse Sonmez
How nice to have Berlin doner in msp!
Robert Bischel
I had the Berlin wrap today, with lamb and it was so good! Also, the customer service and friendliness of the staff, is the best in town.
Thomas Bilbaugh
Delicious! It's difficult to find places that have exactly replicated the wholesomeness of European food but Spitz does it. Delicious appetizers and döner that are AUTHENTIC on this side of the Atlantic -- priceless!
Tiffany Lieske
Had the beef/lamb wrap and the "works" fries. Oh my everything was top notch. Fresh and delish!!
Hugh Casement
Good food. I had Doquitos. Cool kind stylish kind of dyi interior.
Paul Moulton
The wrap was very tasty, the vegetables were fresh and crisp and the fries were scrum-diddly-umptious. The owner and staff were very friendly and helpful as well.
Ayse Irem
Great place. I was on my way to another Mediterranean place but saw their DONER sign and changed my mind. Berlin döner is the best. This gets very close. Glad they have a place in MSP.
Can Özütemiz
You can't find this good doner and beer in berlin or in Turkey. I am Turkish and trust me this is the best doner(Greek calls it gyro but it is original name is doner in Turkish) you can find in this city. Forget about holyland or rest of the kebab places.
Anuj Abhishek
Berliner fries were awesome and so was the doner! Very hip place, too -- the murals are eye catching.
Tab Fellows
Try the Doquitos and fruit Sangria - yum.
Janet Handel
My most favorite place to eat!
Staff is great as well
Dennita Hall
Delicious!!!!!! I got my food to go!
Fresh and yummy!😋
Anna Drobnick
This is one of my favorite restaurants! I love the loaded street cart fries. Nothing on the menu I have ever disliked!
Shaylyn Hines
Favorite of mine. Sangria is on point. Owner is around and friendly. Good music and awesome decor. Try the wraps and fries
Sarah Rostance
All local beers, absolutely scrumptious wraps and some of the best french fries in town. Pls their wall behind the bar made of 2x4s is super cool.
Joseph Kasti
Food was fantastic, I particularly liked the nice touch to have a game cart in the restaurant. Service was great, would totally bring a group again.
Grant Hahn
A little overpriced, but still tasty. I like how they don’t skim on the spiciness of their food!! I appreciate the uniqueness of their menu and decor in the restaurant.
La C
Tried for the first time. Food was excellent. Efficient service. Nice atmosphere. Has some outdoor seating too....
Trisha Rutten
Spitz was very unique. Our server was very helpful explaining what the menu ment. I would for sure recommend Spitz to anyone wanting to try Mediterranean food.
Veronika Skor
Fantastic. Fresh ingredients + lots of variety. Portions are large. Shuffleboard table in back.
Damon Mentzer
Delicious! Limited menu, kind of hard to understand what your getting until you try it, but they're great. Fries are extra.
Joey Undis
Great food and good atmosphere. Highly recommend the Doner w/ Pommes for a sandwich, and the Streetcar Fries which are absolutely perfect.
Zackery Schaaf
Food is crazy good. Place is so underrated, homemade sangria is a nice extra to go with their good tap beer choices.
Julius Kintop
Good vibes, good food, good service. Price isn’t too bad for the quality.
Andrew Meggs
You won't be spitzing any food out of your mouth at this place! A pretty great doner place, if you're craving a taste of the Mediterranean, you can do way worse than Spitz.
Claire Phillips
Favorite bar food spot in the Cities. Street cart fries and garden bowl are divine. Love the atmosphere and the sangria!
michael zimbeck
I studied in Germany for 4 months, where Döner is extremely popular and a favorite of everyone. This stacks up with some of the best I had. Outstanding
Hannah Fotsch
I have been to Spit many times, and each time it is better than the previous! The doners, the street cart fries, the salads, the drinks. Highly recommend!!
BadLuck FPV “Stevie”
Yo. I had a shawarma and falafel wrap and it was filling, and fresh, and super super tasty. Will be returning to try the French fry dishes.
Matthew Dowgwillo
Super rad place really does make u feel like u are in Berlin. Prices are just a tad high and food is pretty good, but nothing to get excited about
Matt Schneider
Döners are actually pretty spot-on here. I usually settle for a variant of the shawarma, but this place made me feel like I was back overseas. Cool A E S T H E T I C too.
Matthew Kuzma
I would eat here again, but it wasn't amazing and I can probably always find a better option. But the spicy wrap was delicious and worth getting.
Joshua Zierhut
We love the mixed street cart fries! Also the happy hour, the sangrias, and the doquitos.
Devlin Shaughnessy
Good beer selection and interesting array of entrees. I'll definitely be back 😊 …
Carol Geiger
Food and all staff are amazing! Highly recommend trying them out.

Great place for happy hour! I love their sangria and their doquitos. This place also has a lot of board games!
randall doud
4 flavors of really good sangria, large doquitos half price at happy hr. Good to split for a snack.
Ryan Smolarek
When I saw that my gyro had the fries wrapped into it I knew I had found a good spot. The 2x4 wall art is unique and grew on me.
Tim Bohmert
The wraps are pretty great. Best sweet potato fries I have had, especially with the seasoned sour cream.
Aaron Moore
Great drink selection and delicious/unique food offerings. Love taking people there for their first time, because Spitz never disappoints!
Chris Harrington
Very tasty, food definitely recommended. Arnold Palmer was ... weird, and small for what it cost.
Camellia Kalra
Simple kabob/gyros shop like a german döner kabob type place. They have shuffleboard and board games, card games. Relatively quiet place.
Crystal De Kam
I am a doner lover! While not like what I get in Germany it is the closest I have found in MN. ( The street fries are great too)
Vicki Erickson
Exceptional service. Great drinks. Wraps are awesome! Definitely do beast mode!

Eddie Saeng
Could use more meat. Very good for a refreshing balance if that's your thing.
Dean Shousher (Salahdean Shousher)
Amazing Mediterranean options. Large portions, many drink options, and everything tasted amazing 🤌
Saurav Upadhyaya
The Mediterranean doner was excellent and I loved that there is a full bar with great tap selections. The service was great as well.
Roberto Mazza
maybe we bumped into a wrong night, but the food was rather bland, the meat dry and we laughed when we got the falafel (one, literally). Disappointed to say the least.
Ted Nielsen
The food is delicious and the decor is super cool. A quick bite or a beer with friends? This is a good spot for it
Matthew Przybylski
Hungover? Spitz has your cure. Highly recommend the Berliner Fries w/ The Works followed up with a pint of ale to wash away the headache, and shame, from the night before.
Troy B
Don't get the beef Doquito's. Tastes like a frozen mini taco. Otherwise, everything else was delicious.
Nancy Popkins
Great food wonderful drink selection and very friendly customer service. Dine in take out you won't be disappointed
Amanda Bindner
Delicious Berliner fries!! Great for sharing. White sangria was awesome!! Highly recommended this resturant.
Rosalie Olander
It was somewhat expensive, but totally worth it. The sangria was absolutely delicious and the street cart fries were amazing.
Paul Veit
The streetcar doner is my favorite local Saturday lunch. Sweet potato fries add a nice touch.

Good food. Service is hit or miss. Large serving sizes.

Thomas West

Great place when you want some comfort food a bit outside the norm. Zesty Feta Doner is my jam.
Victoria Koch
Food is amazing. A little pricey but definitely worth it.
Great atmosphere and nice staff.
Deepa Gokhale-Bhujle
It's not really Mediterranean place. I would call this fusion Mediterranean. The food was tasty but not authentic. I would prefer to go to Filfillah for authentic Mediterranean food
Marin Watters
Very good food and the staff was super nice and attentive. Love the environment too.
Lyl Rose
Love the vibe! Great service - super friendly accommodating staff. The food was soooo good.
