I have been to this restaurant a couple of times now, but I have to say that the food is no longer as good as it was the first two times. Also, the portions are not that big and for the price I find them a bit overpriced. The atmosphere is great. However, the service and location is not very great.
Cool restaurant with design and creative food, but unfortunately the service seems to be unprofessional.
We received the wrong bill ended up paying 30% more… we called back the next day and they admit we did over pay, and they said this wrong billing happened sometimes before but they can do nothing about it.
I intended to write email to the manager at least to reflect the situation and then I was stopped, because out of sudden they want to help and will provide feedback afterwards. Until now I don’t hear anything from them, and now these all look like dodges…
Ofc it is also our fault didn’t check the bill, but with their creative food names and payment after midnight, it can be challenge with groups.

Been there for a quick dinner around 6:30. Staff was very friendly and forthcoming. Food was great, Falafel were on, but the bread was amazing. The tonka bean dessert was yummy.
Some of the worst service I've ever experienced. I was there last night, staff were completely ignoring me and doing shots and chatting amongst themselves instead of acknowledging my existence. The place is lovely aesthetically, but unless you want to be completely ignored for half an hour and left sitting waiting for your drink, I would avoid Bar Shuka. I also had to ask for payment as well when my drinks were made. I had been here the night before and much better service, though. I've never written a Google review but this experience gave me enough encouragement to write one.
We were excited to go and then didn’t love it. Very popular spot with cool design in a hip hotel. The menu looked creative and great, but we found the food bland. Could be fun for a group, but I wouldn’t return for a meal.
The Cesar salad was the best thing we had. The tonka bean desert was nice.
The cocktails were super sweet. The hummus was “meh”. Was excited about the mushroom falafel - also lacking flavor.
A few places we went in Frankfurt were more bland than we’d expect from the cuisine, so maybe it’s a local preference.
The service was slow and it was hard to get their attention.
I wouldn’t really want to be in this neighborhood in the dark.
Bottom line - cool spot, but not a great meal. Great design, though!

We had dinner with friends on Saturday evening. The food variety and taste surprised us positively. Every plate was delicious with genuine taste. We really liked the atmosphere and the music. The only negative point to mention is the location, as it is near the main train station which not the best safest neighborhood in Frankfurt.
This restaurant is highly recommended!!!!!

One of the best restaurants in town! If you want to eat authentic middle eastern food with a twist, it is the right place for you! The menu could be hard to read or to understand with so many options!
All dishes with Hummus and/or meat were very nice. The discovery of the day was the Potatoes with lemon.
Don't forget to check the bar inside. Very cosy and friendly barmen. The waitress in the main hall asked us if we brought the drinks from outside which explains that she is not well trained for such a nice place. She should be familiar with the cocktails and remember that the restaurant has a host at the door. Keep training your staff! Food is great!

Excellent dishes, very good service, we enjoyed it very much. They place is cozy and clean and with bubbly fun music.
If that's not enough, many dishes are healthy/vegetarian and the menu is huge so one can come again and again.
Well, the only thing they can improve is the beers' selection :)
