Ordered mixed grill and instead of lamb doner asked for extra chicken, got large chicken shawarma with chips. When I asked what’s in there he replied that’s what I have ordered. Taste was wired also, he gave me from a container, didn’t enjoy ☺️

Not the best kebab. Just the most expensive. And the saltiest. And the oiliest. Lamb meat should be a delicate pink colour, tonight's delight was so dark it was almost black. Salad was fresh and fragrant with mild onions. 🐑

At 11pm at night I ordered 2 x mixed kebabs for myself & friends - which arrived at the hotel we were staying at, in reasonably good time so no complaints there but OMG the food was disgusting! We paid out £35 for 2 x chicken shish & doner kebab & this was definitely a waste of money!! For me personally this has to be the worst I have ever had. My friends weren't too impressed either. I never got to read the reviews before ordering but having seen them now, I cannot understand how they have been rated so highly. Ok the portions were large but the meat was so tasteless. We threw away most of it. Honestly, I was not happy to have wasted so much money on such crap! I am so glad I don't live around there or have any plans to visit again >I would definitely not recommend this Kebab place to anyone.

Dear god what has happened.. this used to be the best kebab shop in Southend however the last few months it’s very quickly gone downhill, we’ve opted to order takeaways recently instead of our usual kebab but tonight decided to give it another go & I seriously wish I didn’t, it’s gone straight into the bin… the so called “doner kebab” is bloody ICELAND frozen doner meat! It isn’t the same colour, thickness or even texture as the real doner from a kebab shop. Absolutely vile & a real waste of money. This is the last time we bother with best kebab.

This kebap shop has over the years been consistently of a high standard. We have home delivery even though we don't get kebab on a reqular basis. They allways remember us and are requests. The service is very quick no matter what day of the week. It allways arrives lovely and hot. And occasionally they throw in a free large bottle of pop. There lamb shush kebab is beautifully succulent with a lovely fresh salad.. And the chilli dip. Beautiful. Yes I woukd recommend this kebab restaurant.. Well worth a vist you be surprised....

Usually have no issues with Best Kebab, and it up until now has lived up to its name, however, on this occasion they forgot the sauces and the chilli peppers they usually add to doner kebabs and seemingly compensated by adding a sickly amount of raw onions (far more than usual). Hopefully any consistency issues are rectified as this is otherwise the best place to get kebab takeaway in Southend.

Ordered on the website. The food arrived really quickly, like almost impossibly quick. The halloumi wrap must of had about a pint of sauce on it. There was no salad in it. Literally just sauce with halloumi. The separate salad for the large chicken shish was a single semicircle slice of tomatoe, 4 strands of lettuce and about 1 whole onion sliced like bread. I rang because it was an awful delivery and the person just repeated what I said to them?? No apology or anything about the order so I hung up saying I’d just write a review. It’s because of the apathy that I’m writing this. Will never order from there again. Shame because I’ve had better from there before. There’s plenty to choose from in the area, so I’d not bother taking the chance on these again :)

In addition, the chips were piping hot and well salted as I had requested. It was a great meal, and I would highly recommend them. I’ll be back next time I’m craving a cheeky kebab! Hugo

Don’t buy from here. Took over an hour for them to deliver despite literally being 5 mins away, and I’m pretty sure they put expired tuna on the pizza as i have been feeling extremely nauseous ever since and it had a weird texture.
