Irakees Restaurant Koya

A really cozy restaurant owned by a lovely couple. The interior makes it feel really homely and relaxing. The couple were so friendly and sweet that it didn't matter that the preparation time of the food took longer than was expected.
The food definitely also was worth the waiting time, so delicious and full of flavour, and the portions were exactly right. I went here with a friend and for 2 people we shared a starter, had our own main dish and also shared two desserts. All in all it didn't cost us a lot despite ordering so many things.
Everything is prepared by the owners themselves, and as I said the waiting time can be a bit longer. But as long as you go in expecting that, it doesn't really matter and its still a really nice place to spend the evening. Would definitely eat here again!

Great experience, my first time with Iraqi cuisine. The starter sampler was a good introduction, the eggplant baba ganoush and the stuffed baby eggplants with walnuts were the standouts for me. Hummus and tzatziki were also very nice.

For the mains we asked for some advice and were recommended two lamb dishes. One was lamb quzi, a braised lamb dish served with rice and a tomato vegetable side. The lamb was super rich and flavorful. The pilaf was a nice mix of sweet and savory with raisins and cashews interspersed. The tomato vegetable dish went nicely with rice and lamb. The second dish was lamb/veal koftas, a kind of meatball. Very nice but not as memorable as the quzi.

The restaurant owners were very friendly and personable. Making a point to talk with us and share a little of their history. A very nice introduction Iraqi food and one I highly recommend. Thanks!

Atmosphere is super traditional and chill. It is a family restaurant. The food was good, a bit overpriced, however, if you want to eat in a proper restaurant, this is the place you need to come. We had potata chaap and Koya Spareribs. Both were so good 👌🏻.

Wow…this place does not disappoint at all! I went there on a Saturday evening with a friend and we both enjoyed every bit. The food is simply amazing and, tasty and rich in flavor. Don’t expect a large menu as you’re being served by the husband and wife who also cook and clean. But that’s ok because it’s more than enough to enjoy. The portions are large and did I mention tasty?! The husband and wife are very friendly and love to make conversation with their guests. Be sure to ask for their coffee!

Best dishes ever
Also they were really nice and kind

Wow.... The portions are huge, the price is normal (60€ for 3 people!) the food is home cooked and the lady owner cared a lot to let me know she took 3 hours to cook dolma, so please appreciate her efforts! It is a quite small place, but cozy, tidy and you will feel at home, the owners (husband and wife) are very very friendly, often come by to chat with you and ask if you need anything, they're also ready to modify any dish according to your request, which is very often not possible in other places!!
So... Highly recommended, delicious food!!!

Wow! At first, I was a bit skeptical, but this food is amazing! The owners are kind, attentive, and serve the food fast. The food had rich flavors and good portions. It was the type of food where you eat slow because you don’t want it to end. Highly recommend. If this restaurant was close to my house - I’d be here everyday.

The owner is a very kind guy and makes you feel at home. The food is absolutely delicious, big portions. We had a lovely experience!

Really good Food! Nice personal! Little bit slow but very kind! All good and sweets home made 😍

We are in Breda for work from New York and stumbled upon this restaurant by chance while passing by. Amazing & delicious food & nice owners.A true delight! We’d eat there again any time!

Great food at reasonable price. Very homy atmosphere and the owner makes sure you’re feeling very welcome. I’m definitely coming again. Not something I often say in restaurants in Breda.

Best food in Breda so far. Everything from starters to desserts is homemade. The owners are very kind and friendly. Will come back for sure.

If you are from the Middle East, Do not hesitate to go and try this restaurant.

What an amazing restaurant, came here to eat with my family and the food and staff were amazing! Best food from Irak that I have ever tasted, I can't wait to eat here again! Don't hesitate, you have to try this amazing food :)

Delicious food! Cozy place with very caring owners! Had a great evening 🥰

Delicious food, especially mix grill is one of the best.

Kip skewers in the picture, we had amazing starters and an incredible kunefe for dessert. The owners are so so kind too!

Had dinner here a couple years ago. It's been so good that I still remember it so vividly and I thought, telling how good it was via Google might be a good idea.
It was one of my favorite dinner dates with my partner and we had delicious food!

The food is great, especially the rice that comes with most main courses.
It's small but very cozy with great atmosphere.
The married couple that run the place is incredibly nice.
And they served me the best coffee I've EVER had!

Best feed I‘ve had in a long time! I‘m from middle eastern descent so I‘m usually really picky with middle eastern food but this was superb! Not only was the food affordable, filling and delicious but also the staff was super nice and helpful!
