1 of the best shawarmas I had in Arlington, TX so far.. I've only tried two other spots and in comparison abu omar halal is on another level. I ordered delivery through DoorDash and I was very satisfied with the shawarmas flavor and portions. Didn't care for the fries. Definitely enjoyed the chicken over the beef too. read more

Conveniently located off of Division Orders to go online are through pickup DoorDash or UberEats. I'm unsure but other reviews say that the pricing in restaurant = cheaper than what's online. So opt to order inside. $28 two meals. One meal without fries. Fries are expensive $5 to add. Ordered the mixed chicken/beef quesadilla style shawarma. $15.50 online. It's BIGGG. She said she liked the beef better and it was okay. It came with fries. I believe what I got was the Fried Zinger Chicken Wrap. $10.75 online. It did not come with fries. I wanted to like it but the chicken was so hard. I had to bite on the side of my mouth. My front two teeth couldn't handle some of it. Flavor wise it was okay, but it was toooooo hard. If I would've had braces in, the bracket wouldn't have made it. It was done QUICKLY though. I may retry another item. Lamb quesadillas maybe. read more

Food 7/10 Cleanliness minus 4/10 Customer service minus 10/10 Been there 5 times and always been the same BAD customer service. Cashier/cook did not even say hello even I spoke Arabic with him. read more

Oooh, a new go-to spot for delivery! I have not been here in person but their to-go meals are prettily plated and packaged, plus well insulated. It arrives hot hot hot! I recommend the "over rice" meals; my favorite being the shawarma or falafel or kebobs. I last ordered the grilled chicken kebobs: 5 good-sized cubes of grilled chicken over Vermicelli or yellow rice, served with a side salad of diced tomatoes and onions, yellow corn, jalapeños, chickpeas, and black olives. Served with garlic sauce. It's all really delicious -- the rice is well seasoned and fluffy, the chicken is moist and has that fiery grill taste, the salad produce is all crisp and fresh, and the garlic sauce is something you'll wish you got more of. They also have wraps, gyros, stuffed grape leaves, fries, and quesadillas. Fantastic hummus and pita. Fried kibbeh. Fried cauliflower. All kinds of delectable halal goodies. They're known for their chicken shawarma, so get any variation of that if you're not sure where to start. read more

FOOD INSTAGRAM: @northtx.gemz **** WHAT THEY'RE KNOWN FOR: I had no idea there was multiple locations across the US! They are well known for their phenomenal Arab food provided in a fast casual setting. THE VIBE: very casual place! It lowkey reminded me of subway the way the inside looked maybe it was an old subway. PRICE: ~$12 WOULD I COME BACK? Yes! **** Overall Rating: 10/10 - another great recommendation from @papreechaat ! I wanted a quick and fulfilling lunch and decided to stop by here and was not disappointed. - I ordered from the app because for first time customers you get a discount! When I went it seemed like they were busy with to-go orders they actually didn't make my order in time but the guy working made sure my food was hot and fresh and it still came out great! - The lamb gyro was juicy and flavorful. There's no nasty game-y taste you can get from goat/lamb. The sauce inside of the wrap was perfectly portioned and wasn't soggy at all. Everything was perfect. The fries were piping hot and crispy! Their garlic sauce is amazing. I will say the spicy tahini sauce is alright! - Definitely check this out. I'm coming back to try their chicken arabi for sure! read more

Took the shawarma chicken wrap as takeout from bogo. Quite good portion. Was satisfied with the taste and service.

Really good! They frequently do BOGO options on UberEats so stay on the lookout for that! Their chicken shawarma over rice is so good and I'll do a BOGO option on Ubereats so I can take one to work for lunch the next day. It reheats really well! Their lamb gyro wrap has become a must order anytime I get anything from here because it's so tasty. I always get food from here for delivery so I can't comment on service, except that my order is always correct. This has become my family's no 1 place to order from when we're in the mood for middle eastern food. read more

The chicken shawarma over rice plate portion is super large, and has a combination of meat, veggies, sauce, and rice! It hits all your cravings into one. I love my rice bowls spicy and asked for extra spice, but I didn't get as much red sauce as I would've liked. Other recommendations: Gyro tastes like their specialty. It was tender and flavorful. Highly recommend trying that meat instead. Bonus: I wish I remembered the name of the oily green sauce on the side because it was a unique & delicious addition to my bowl! Price: $9.50 Dine-in and Takeout ‼ Halal, open late night Overall Rating: 8/10 Reason: I was expecting yellow rice, but I got white rice with my bowl. Also, there are a few veggies in there that confused my taste buds a bit, such as cauliflower and corn. Not a bad thing, but if I had more spicy red sauce, I think it'd be an even more enjoyable experience. I will be getting extra spicy red sauce next time! read more

Service was great! Food was delicious!!! Love love loved the beef shawarma! The place was clean. They didn't have a few things from online that I wanted but overall I was very happy read more

My kids love the chicken sandwich with "white sauce" and lettuce, they're rice is so buttery in the rice platter. The only thing is be careful when ordering this place from any source other than actually inside the store. They're prices are different on their website, different on Yelp, GrubHub, Uber Eats, DoorDash. They're different everywhere and quite a lot more expensive than if you were to order in the location in Arlington. Ordering inside is SIGNIFICANTLY less pricey, which is weird....... They always also take forever to make your order, even if your the only one whose ordered. read more

The food is good, but the service is horrible. I walked in with my wife, ordered two beef Arabi shawarma. It took him 20 minutes to make then he gave us two chicken Arabi shawarma. When I told him that's not what we ordered and showed him the receipt, he LIED and said that he told me the beef wasn't ready. When he said that to me I let it go and ate my chicken shawarma. I really don't like chicken but I ate it anyway. He didn't offer us anything to make it better. He didn't try to make anything right. He just lied to my face. We drove 30 minutes to eat here. I speak Arabic so I would know if he said it in arabic or not. Anyway, the place is dirty. Customer service is horrible. I wish they would clean it up and be nice to their customers. Their food is pretty good but it's gross. Everything needs to be mopped and wiped down. read more

This place gets better every time I order it. I have reviewed this before. I was not impressed but now I am very impressed. This is my new fav spot for Shawarmas read more

I didn't realize this was a chain, going in. There appeared to only be one man working but he is very friendly and working fast. I had a minute to check out the menu and ordered a chicken kabob sandwich. He replied back to me chicken shwarma sandwich. Ok. Maybe they didn't have any chicken kabobs. I like shwarma. It is a wrapped sandwich in a giant tortilla that they stick under a press to crisp up the outside. The chicken was not on a spit, but was precooked and kept in a warming tray. It came with the garlic sauce and pickles. It was hot and makes for a hefty sandwich. He also threw in a baklava in my to go bag. The chicken was hot but a bit dry and had a heavy clove flavor. I really like the pickles and the garlic sauce was tasty. The tortilla has a good crisp to it, but I prefer a softer pita wrap. It has a higher price point than the independent places popping up all over Arlington. My lunch was good, but it didn't rock my socks like some of the other options in the area. One thing they do have going for them, they are open LATE. read more

I guess it's okay for 11 bucks for two sandwiches but it wasn't good and I didn't get any yogurt with my food :/ I wouldn't recommend...

I've tried almost everything on the menu and it is always good. I like the spicy garlic sauce they have. The staff is always nice when I come in. One of the first times I went, they gave my girls a free rice pudding. This is my new fav spot for gyros and rice bowls! read more

Abu Omar Halal - Arlington - Beef Chicken Shawarma Arabi - Halal Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Abu Omar just opened a brick and mortar location on Division Street. It's a chain with 16 locations, including numerous food trucks. The interior is spacious with counter service. There were several families dining. I ordered the Chicken Shawarma Sandwich to go. The service was fast. The sandwich went good with an afternoon beer. At $7.50 for a solo shawarma sandwich they're coming in kinda high in this neighborhood with so many lower-priced Mediterranean locations nearby. But, they stay open really late (the sign on the door noted 2AM closing), which is good seeing that the restaurants around here go dark pretty early. There's been a Subway (yuk!) in this space, and another Mediterranean restaurant that lasted like a month. I'm hoping this restaurant sticks. read more

Great food and good service. I stop by there about once a week. Will definitely keep coming there

Service was horrible. One of the workers was fixing his car outside, cool no big deal. He took my order and went back outside. The other guy started on the meat, other people came in and the other guy was still outside. The other one was cashiering... my food took forever to be made and they made it wrong. I ordered a sandwich not this *pic** read more

They do buy one get one deals on UberEats. Had the falafel sandwich and it was good but a little dry so I dipped it in the white sauce (possibly tahini) that came with another persons meal and it was so good. I love that they grill both sides of the sandwich though. Only thing that sucked is the food was better the first time we ordered vs the second for some reason but maybe it was late so it wasn't as fresh, idk. read more

Solid food and solid service. Really enjoyed the ARABI, Italian Shawarma, and the beef over rice. Also, their garlic sauce and their spicy red sauce is actually really good!

I was up pretty late and hungry and usually everything is closed around midnight but I decided to look on Yelp hoping to find something new and I did! They had a food truck out front and in my personal experiences that's always a good sign. I went inside and the gentlemen who helped me was very friendly! My only complaint was not ordering an extra sauce to go with my schwarma, it was delicious regardless but it was definitely the icing on the cake and I finished it quick by dousing it over the first couple bites in my excitement. read more

The chicken shawarma wrap was amazing!! So glad I found this place. Can't wait to order again!

I liked the food. The service was good...interesting. This was my first time to have Arab food, but I was mostly familiar with the individual items on the menu. I had beef shawarma Halabi and also a side of falafel. I struggled with the meal options, and I still don't think I could explain them. There are lots of fries. You can get beef or chicken shawarma, gyro, or fried chicken in 1 of 10 meal options. They also have kabobs over rice and falafel in several preparations. Hummus, salad, cauliflower, fries, grape leaves, and more come as sides. They also have baklava. They also have a selection of sauces. It's counter service. My beef shawarma was good. The fries were fine. I'm not a fan. I knew that. The falafel was great! When someone saw I didn't care for the sauce, he offered me tahina and also a banana. They were good too. I also took food to go/grape leaves, kibbe balls, and baklava. They were out of hummus today. I think there are 5 staff. They all spoke to me and were friendly. I'd come back. I'd probably order all sides. read more

Worst service ever they forgot most of our order and food was cold. I would not recommend this restaurant because of their poor service.

Ordered delivery and it was kinda a crap shoot. The lamb kabobs where dry and not well seasoned with tiny portion for the cost. - also no sauce with it which made the whole dish drier. Grape leaves where pretty standard, falafel was ok but a bit dry and had no sauce with it. Meat dumplings and quesadilla combo where good. read more
