Always a fan of shared dining and this place does it well with slight improvement points. The taste of the food is great. Everything is well balanced and dishes flow into each other perfectly. Next to that portions are pretty decent! Presentation is also great, but sometimes a bit less practical for sharing. A lot of dishes would work well as a serving for a single person. But the shared aspect makes it so you can try everything. It’s like trying food from each others plates. It is slightly pricey, but the service is pretty darn good. Very friendly, service oriented, but could do with a slightly more human touch. Having a server be a bit more connected just makes food taste better. But that’s obviously a personal preference. All in all, a very nice place with very nice food. Close to 5 star. If I could give it 4,5 I would.

I had the secret menu and it was so delicious! I had everything from their homemade bread, beef tartare, to the sole, pasta, and baklava. The food was full of flavor and the ambiance was really nice too!

Food was delicious and staff was very friendly. As we took the 4 and not the three course menue we were expecting to get enough to eat. It was a surprise menue to share, and the surprise was that that there were one or two items of each thing for three people… This was unexpected and disappointing, especially regarding the price of 56€ per person. But, again, it was delicious and everything else was good

Actually the place is not bad but I found the food is average in terms of taste , I order ceviche which was very mild ( no lemons ) the bread was not baked enough. The Adna Wagyu has a mediocre taste. Any how the staff was very friendly.

A True Gem of Turkish Fine Dining in Maastricht Mandalin is an absolute revelation. Finally, a high-end Turkish restaurant that doesn’t try to dilute its identity by fusing with other cuisines or imitating French fine dining—but instead embraces the full richness and complexity of Turkish cuisine in its own right. And it does so with exquisite quality. From the very first bite of the mezes to the freshly baked breads, the intermediate courses, and all the way to dessert—every single dish was executed with precision, depth of flavor, and a level of care that’s hard to find. The ingredients were top-tier, the presentation elegant, and the balance of spices and textures simply sublime. Yes, the portions are on the smaller side—as is typical in fine dining—but that’s entirely beside the point. The purpose here is not to fill up like at an all-you-can-eat buffet. The goal is to taste—to genuinely experience flavors your palate may never have encountered before. And that is exactly what Mandalin delivers: Turkish cuisine in its finest, purest, most elevated form. A standout moment for me personally was a fish dish—something I normally don’t enjoy. And yet, I was blown away. The quality was so high, and the preparation so masterful, that it transcended my preferences. That says everything. The service? Attentive, warm, and professional throughout. The price? Extremely fair. A 4-course menu at €56 per person feels almost too affordable for the quality you get. Sure, drinks add to the bill—but even then, the overall experience is absolutely worth it. Coming from Germany, where most Turkish restaurants are limited to standard grilled dishes like Döner or Kebap (often of average quality), Mandalin is in a league of its own. It showcases what Turkish cuisine is truly capable of when given the respect and creativity it deserves—without borrowing from other culinary traditions to prove its worth. This is Turkish cuisine confidently playing in the culinary Champions League. A new discovery, and one I can’t recommend enough
