Great food from Kongz! Everything was fresh and full of flavour. The service was a bit tricky since it’s a drive-through as its quite popular at the moment it did take a while to get food out to the car. staff walked back and forth from the cars they must have been exhausted doing that through a full shift. Definitely worth a visit — I’d recommend it as the food was really good. We will be back.

Reviews
Kongz.....best takeaway ever! Its so popular, be prepared to wait and i know you won't be disappointed once you taste the food. I had the German Kebab, Mozzarella Sticks and my partner had the Classic Burger.....all delicious. I think is great food and value and well worth the wait...give them a try. Gongz....10/10
Read on Google MapsExcellent taste. Best burger I have ever had. The drive through is a hectic due to long lines. We had to wait for long time to receive the order. Still the best taste. They have blue light discount.
Read on Google MapsWas a decent sized burger but really salty and greasy rather than juicy. Peri Chips were good 25 minute wait from ordering and forgot sauce had to go and knock on the door for it. there are definitely better burgers in Glasgow
Read on Google MapsGrillaz in Glasgow serves up seriously tasty burgers! Juicy, flavorful, and loaded with fresh toppings. The portions are generous, the service is fast and friendly, and the vibes are casual and welcoming. One of the best burger spots in the city!
