Doner kebabs are a popular type of Turkish street food that has become popular worldwide, particularly in Europe and the Middle East. The dish typically consists of slices of grilled meat, often lamb or chicken, that are wrapped in warm pita bread with various vegetables and sauces.

Doner kebabs are known for their distinctive flavor, which comes from the way the meat is cooked on a vertical rotisserie, slowly roasting and basting in its own juices. The meat is typically seasoned with a blend of herbs and spices, which varies depending on the region and the individual chef.

In addition to the traditional lamb or chicken, many places also offer vegetarian or vegan versions of the dish, using falafel or other meat substitutes. Doner kebabs are often served with a variety of toppings and sauces, such as lettuce, tomato, cucumber, onion, yogurt sauce, chili sauce, and hummus.
