What User likes about King of Donair:
We ordered 2 donairs for delivery at this location.These donairs are great and large.Sauce is very good and the delivery time was 20 minutes and this was on a weekend and very busy.Would recommend to anyone who wants to know why this place is the first donair place to open in Canada.Fantastic! View all feedback. What User doesn't like about King of Donair:
Stopped in after work tried the donair. Asked for the works with sauce on the side. Got home to discover only meat not 'works' and it was incredible salty meat. Super nice staff but i'll be going elsewhere for my donair needs. View all feedback.

Ordered Donair pizza and BBQ chicken pizza to feed a hungry crowd while we were moving a few weeks agoIt really hit the spot.

While honeymooning in Halifax we knew we had to try donair and we were not disappointed.

You'd think a place called king of donair would at least no that donair sauce goes on it, twice in a row the charge us extra for extra sauce and there none,

King of Donair on Quinpool Road has the best donairs! I always try to stop when I'm in Halifax. The large size truly is large!

Known for its legendary Halifax donairs, King of Donair offers a unique take on the traditional favorite. Customers rave about the sweet and amazing sauce, generous portions, and overall deliciousness of the donairs. The atmosphere may be lacking in some areas, but the friendly staff and tasty food make up for it. Some customers have noted issues with missing sauce, salty meat, and lack of cutlery, but overall, King of Donair continues to be a popular choice for those seeking an authentic Halifax donair experience.

This restaurant on Quinpool Road is the best. The food was well-cooked and prepared exactly as ordered.

Usually the food is great, but this time it was definitely undercooked. The onion rings were covered in a soggy batter.
