The Döner Factory

The Döner Factory har två restauranger i Göteborg, en centralt strax vid avenyn och en i Mölndal Galleria, där de serverar burgare, pizzor och kebab. Deras burgarmeny innehåller åtta smashburgare, och vi beställde två varianter – en Dubbel Cheese Burger med två 80-gramspuckar, fyra skivor cheddarost, pickles och ketchup samt en Hot Gringo med två 80-gramspuckar, dubbel cheddarost, bacon, picklad rödlök, sallad, rostad lök, chipotlemajonnäs och en stark BBQ-sås. De kostade 89 kronor styck, och vi uppgraderade även till en meny med pommes frites och dippsås för 30 kronor extra.

Burgarna serverades på varsin bricka med en rejäl portion pommes frites, men den dubbla cheeseburgaren kändes försvinnande liten i handen och vi var faktiskt tvungna att dubbelkolla med köket att vi hade fått rätt burgare. När vi tog vår första tugga kände vi direkt hur mjuka burgarna var, särskilt cheeseburgaren. Köttet hade en viss stekyta, men vi hade verkligen önskat att den var mer tilltagen för att skapa lite bättre balans och bidra med lite spännande texturkontraster. Köttets smak var ganska anonym och vi hade inte heller tackat nej till en mer bastant kryddning. Våra pickles var dessutom väldigt söta, och tillsammans med ketchupen blev vår dubbla cheeseburgare oangenämt söt och mjuk. Vår Hot Gringo var dock roligare, med en mer intressant smakbild tack vare hettan i barbecuesåsen och lite fler ingredienser med olika texturer. Den stora portionen pommes frites var helt okej både smak- och texturmässigt, och det kändes som att vi verkligen fick valuta för pengarna.

Det är kul att hitta smashburgare i Göteborg, men vi kan konstatera att The Döner Factory inte riktigt har lyckats sätta konceptet ännu. Men här får du ändå en generöst prissatt och helt klart godkänd burgare, så de är fortfarande värda ett besök om du vill stilla hungern.

In English

The Döner Factory have two restaurants in Gothenburg, one in the city center by Avenyn and one in Mölndal Galleria, where they serve burgers, pizza and kebab. Their burger menu consists of eight smash burgers, and we ordered two different ones; a Double Cheese Burger with two 80-gram beef patties, four slices of cheddar, pickles and ketchup, and a Hot Gringo with two 80-gram beef patties, double cheddar, bacon, pickled red onions, lettuce, roasted onions, chipotle mayo and a spicy BBQ sauce. They cost 89 SEK (8 USD) each, and we also upgraded them with french fried and a dip for an additional 30 SEK (2.5 USD).

Our burgers came served on a tray, together with a large heap of french fries. But our double cheese burger looked surprisingly small, and we actually had to double-check that the kitchen had got our order right. And when we started eating we immediately noticed how soft our burgers were, especially the cheeseburger. The patties had some crust, but we would have liked it to be deeper to create a better balanced burger with different textures. The beef flavour was a bit anonymous as well, and we would have liked some more seasoning. The pickles were very sweet too, and together with the ketchup we got a very soft and sweet cheeseburger. The Hot Gringo was much better, with some heat from the barbecue sauce and added textures from the added ingredients. The large order of french fries tasted rather nice and was crispy, and were well worth the added cost.

We were happy to find smash burgers in Gothenburg, but we can’t escape the fact that The Döner Factory haven’t nailed the concept quite yet. But they still serve reasonably priced and decent burgers, and are worth a visit if you’re hungry in the area.

🇦🇪 @she_burger ★★★★☆

She Burger is a restaurant chain with several locations in Dubai and around the Middle East, and they participated in the Dubai Burger Championship 2026. The burger they served at the festival was the same name as the restaurant, She Burger, and it consisted of two smashed beef patties, roasted onions, veal bacon jam with a lot of coffee, and their signature sauce for 60 AED (16.5 USD).

We immediately felt that the burger had a very international appearance when we saw it, and it offered a well-shaped brioche bun, plenty of toppings, double meat patties. The bun was soft and had a good size, but the heel would have been able to handle the beef juices better if they’d let the patties rest before assembly. The Black Angus meat had a strong meat flavour with a robust seasoning, but we felt that the crust should have been more pronounced and that the meat could have been even juicier. The fried onion was texturally brilliant, and it added both flavour and a lovely crunch that the burger really needed. The veal bacon jam was incredibly good and had a much more mature taste than we are normally used to. It was very coffee heavy, which we really appreciated. On the other hand, the signature sauce was completely anonymous and didn’t make any real impression.

She Burger do a lot right with this burger, but they need to refine the details and the meat to really make it a winner. But that being said, they offer one of the better burgers in Dubai.

🇸🇪 @thellas_foodtruck ★★★★☆

Thellas is a food truck in Gävle that we’ve heard a lot of positive things about since they opened in 2024. The menu at the time of our visit consisted of four beef burgers and a vegetarian option. We chose the classic ”Thellas Cheese” cheeseburger with double burger cheese, silver onions, dill pickles, ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise. A single patty burger cost 115 SEK (12.5 USD), but we ordered a double 120-gram patty burger with for 145 SEK (15.5 USD) and also added 30 SEK (3 USD) for french fries and 15 SEK (1.5 USD) for a chili mayo.

There was a long line of people waiting for their food, and when the burger was served we were greeted by a well-composed and inviting cheeseburger. The first bite was incredibly flavourful and juicy, with a very clear crust on the patties. The beef was well-seasoned with a generous amount of coarsely ground black pepper. And the creamy cheese was delicious and nicely melted over the beef. Unfortunately, the bun was a bit of a disappointment, because despite looking good, it had been toasted for too long on the grill and lacked the fluffy texture we expect from a brioche bun. Their own-pickled cucumber was delicious and added both acidity and crunch, and we would have liked to see more of it so that it was spread over the entire burger. All the sauces did their job without standing out and were also in the right amount, without any one of them overpowering the others. We also liked the generous portion of crispy french fries, and the smoky chilli mayo was tasty – although it could have been a bit spicier.

Thellas undoubtedly serve one of the better burgers we’ve eaten in Gävle, and the service from the guys in the food truck was excellent as well. We definitely recommend keeping an eye on their schedule and visiting them if you’re in the area.
