I live at the entrance and i am truely surprised these guys are still in business!! The kebabs are absolutely huge and I can never finish one (despite being a 'big' woman).. The service however is very rude and not very directive - I ordered drinks and had to wait to be told to move to another counter to collect them.. No signs or anything and then the person serving me rolled their eyes like it was obvious! I observed the customers who were behind me and they had to be told as well so I don't know why I recieved this rude and disrespectful service. Overall, the food is great but if you can't stand bullsh*t people then don't bother, they're not worth it.

Approximate cost: $8

My husband and daughter and I thought it would be nice to walk down to The Entrance and grab a kebab at this place (which we had been meaning to go to for a while) on New Years Day of this year.

When we walked in there were many customers around, busy, busy.
The woman who took our order wasn't the friendliest of people but we didn't mind, we were in high spirits and just wanted some nice lunch.
We go over to the drinks counter to collect our drinks, (this we had to figure out on our own as the woman who served us didn't even tell us what to do...) and my husband noticed a sign stuck on the menu that said "10% surcharge on all items". We had never seen anything like that before and so we asked the girl getting our drinks what that was about. She replied that because it was a public holiday, they charge 10% extra on everything. To which I replied "Oh okay, fair enough...I've just never noticed anything like that before.." Me and my husband were about to move onto other things when a man, (who I have since found out from another non-fan of Kebab King is the owner) spun around and aggresively asked, "Whats your problem?" to us. I was a bit stunned at the attitude on him so my husband repeated that he hadn't seen a place apply a surcharge before. The owner then, very rudely and aggressively said "Well I'm stuck here working" then, pointing, said " while what the hell are you doing, mate?" I was just shocked at this point. Never at any point, had we been rude, offensive, accusing...nothing. We were just purely curious. My husband and I just looked at each other like.."what th..? Then the man said sarcastically, "Good luck to ya." ...What???? I still don't know what the hell that was supposed to mean. That because we weren't working on a public holiday that we're bad???Anyway...........
It was the most rude and outrageous experience that I've ever had as a customer, ever. And the kebabs were pretty poor on top of it all. The young girl who had originally been serving our drinks look noticeably embarrassed and later apologized to my husband when he went back for a serviettes, but the damage was done. We will never ever under any circumstance buy a thing from this place again. We had a horrible and undeserving experience on a day that should and would have been great.

I don't know how this place remains open with an owner that has an attitude like that to his customers. I feel sorry for his employees.

Approximate cost: $too much.

The kebabs are HUGE.. You'll definately get your money's worth, however, the service might just put you off when considering dining here. There are no smiles and it seems like the staff don't give a **** about you, you're only money to them.

Approximate cost: $8
