Channeling Hawi Day, Hawi Long, Hawi Mandel, and Hawi D of the Backstreet Boys, at one of Houston's best food trucks.

So if McDonald's has lost its THRILL And sh**ty Shake Shack just made you ILL And the Burger King left you nothing in his WILL And Wendy's tastes like Dr. PHIL And In N Out just went DOWNHILL And Five Guys is a porno, not a burger MILL And that Hipster truck got 5 stars from another SHILL And you don't have the money to fly to BRASIL To get your Churrascaria and Acai FILL And you're mis-educated like LAURYN HILL I can tell you a great food truck, with no FRILL The juiciest thing this side of SEVILLE It's the best kebab in town from AL HAWI GRILL (But after you eat it, get on the f***ing Treadmill) (And if your arteries didn't get clogged yet, they soon will) Hawi doing today? Well, we'll be doing better after you try this insanely incredible food truck. It's so Houston, finding amazing mysteries in the middle of the night, such as this Middle Eastern kebab truck grilling real, amazing Kofte, in a fantastic amazing memorable way, with a sort of charcoal taste, and it's honestly one of the best trucks you'll find anywhere let alone here in Houston. A lot of the other great trucks over here have closed down recently, so it's great that this amazing truck is still busy and alive and kicking and doing well, and there's a reason why the wait times are long and why masses of people come here. Indeed, Houston has some magical food trucks, and most of the best ones are Mexican or other Latin American delights, but if you're looking for Middle Eastern food trucks, there are a handful that will change your life, and this amazing place. It's traditional and a little expensive, but then so are some escorts. The wait time can be really long, but then I can be really long too. Especially for Barbi. I would definitely say that the minced meat Kebab here is some of the best in Houston. The portions are very small, but when it tastes this good it's okay. All of the things that come with it are pretty good, and when you get it on a stick it's quite an experience. If you're into kebabs you have to try this place at least once in your life, and you have to make sure you get the ground meat kabob. Hawi a nice day. So if you're in the Jungle Book, you're MOWGLI And if you drive Italian, drive a FERRARI And if you're near Tanzania, you might be in MALAWI But if you want a kebab truck, try AL HAWI! WHAT!

Good food, simple and kind people. Don't snooze on this food truck. Halal for those who care about that stuff (I don't). It's open from 7pm-4:30am.

Stopped by for iftaar and we were one of the first few people in line to place an order. It took about 45 minutes to get our food but we knew that would be the case going in. The food was worth it! I tried the beef with fat and lamb tikka skewers, both cooked to perfection. Even the fries are perfectly seasoned and delicious. Do give them a try!

Amazing food!

One of the best food trucks I've ever been to. I like how they give you the Lamb, chicken, etc. right on the skewer, I come here for the Lamb and Chicken on the skewer. Most people will tell you to get the Lamb skewer with the Fat but even the Lamb skewer without the fat taste great. If you need a healthy high protein lunch, dinner or late night snack you can't go wrong with the Lamb and Chicken Skewers at Al-Hawi. I highly recommend Al-Hawi you won't regret it!

Food is good but over priced, no mask, no COVID-19 precautions what so ever and do check your credit card they will charge whatever they like, ask for receipt, customer service is not all that.
