About Kebab Express (Halal Food)
On Newtownards Rd in Belfast, Kebab Express (Halal Food) is a kebab shop at number 364 A that serves late-night customers. The menu centres on doner kebabs, with burgers, pizza and chips alongside. Cheesy chips and gravy curry chips are both on the chip list, and onion rings and veg samosa come as sides. Service continues into the early hours of the morning, so the shop is there for people who are out after most kitchens have stopped cooking.

Customer Review Summary
Kebab and chips draw the praise, with one group of diners describing generous servings and friendly people, and another calling the gravy curry chips brilliant. Doner kebabs are called nice by a returning customer, while the pizza gets only an alright. One reviewer found the food decent but not excellent, and noted a takeaway box that looked melted from fries packed too hot. The complaints outweigh the praise, though, and mostly concern delivery. Several describe orders arriving very late, cold and wrong, and one found the cheesy chips tasted like they had sat in the fryer for days with barely any cheese. A few say the phone went unanswered or that staff were rude when they called about a mistake. One reviewer who ordered a kebab and chips noted the promised salad never came, and another received onion rings in place of a veg samosa, which they accepted. The most repeated detail is food turning up cold and not as ordered.

“I dont know what people are whinging about got mine 10 mins after the latest time which is completely acceptable, brother got a gravy curry chip i tried it chips are brilliant and pizza is alright. dont know what people expect out of a kebab place like, did substitute veg samosa with onion rings but again, completely acceptable for a wee kebab shop like, especially during the holidays, open til 5 am I ordered at 20 past 11 at the door within an hour, still decently hot”

“We ordered from here yesterday, great that they have a option that they open till early hours of the morning, but , the food arrived cold , at first it was quite nice , but now, I have food poisoning from a kebab …. Avoid in my opinion”

“I had a really disappointing experience with Kebab Express. My order arrived nearly two hours late, and when it finally turned up, all of the food was completely cold. On top of that, the order was wrong, which made it even more frustrating after such a long wait. I understand delays can happen, but this was excessive and there was no effort to ensure the food quality or accuracy. Unfortunately, I won’t be ordering from here again.”
- Julia Kempinska
“They made my order wrong so I called the restaurant and the guy on the phone started being rude to me. Started shouting at me telling me that he’ll come to my house and show me And I was like stop threatening me. Overall, he was just arguing with me that the food was made good and I was like well no it’s not cause I’m literally complaining that you’ve did it wrong and he started shouting at me no respect whatsoever. I will never order from that place again.”
