Shah's Halal Food - Cheeseburger

Shah's Halal Food

4.3(18 reviews)
13.8 mi•Westchase

We ain't in Queens anymore…read more For years, I've eaten on Shah's all around the borough, initially out in Ozone Park and Briarwood before finding a real audience in Sunnyside. Now that they've sufficiently blown up around NYC, I was a bit shocked (and excited) to see them finally come to H-Town. What's the verdict? It's good enough to pass muster for NY standards (#1), is open super late, and will likely be my go-to Halal food for the foreseeable future. Since I've only had it in cart form, I'm still a buggin over the fact it's become a franchise. It's similar to my shock of eating Halal Guys at a store for the first time. The digs feel as foreign (prices, large, clean and bright interior) as it does familiar (taste, logo, etc.). Even though I had a laugh seeing the wall photo-mural of a Shah's cart in Times Square, I did appreciate the nod to Ozone Park with the 121st & Liberty street signs. The chicken + lamb combo platter ($12) is and always will be the winner. The lamb had the same kind of seasoning that most Halal spots out here try to replicate but can never get right. The rice was fluffy, and the white sauce was easily the highlight. I can understand why they've decided to bottle it up and sell it as liquid gold. It makes every meal better. Kofta ($12) and chapli ($13) are rarely my favorites, but I knew I had both in platter form. The addition of adding chickpeas and these other salads is not something I'm used to from the carts (#2) but I loved the fact it was drowned in the white sauce with a dash of hot sauce. The latter is supposedly extremely hot, but I didn't find it that spicy. While I have to say the cheeseburger was a bit of a disappointment (overly bready, thin patty), the pakora chips and french fries were fabulous. They were perfectly seasoned, had a nice crisp, and frankly would be an excellent, gut-busting addition to any platter. I don't love the extra charge, but I hope they remain consistent with it. This store location in Westchase along Westheimer is an up and coming part of town. There are numerous Middle Eastern businesses in the adjacent area, along with an abundance of parking spots and a good amount of late night activity. Service was friendly but I do hope they keep their standards up. As time goes on, I'm 100% convinced this will be a destination for the many late night meal seekers and fans of NY nostaligia. __________ (#1) Which automatically supersedes a lot of the ones here in Houston. Just keeping it real. (#2) Is the chickpeas a Houston thing? Genuinely curious.

Excellent lamb over rice. Got a bogo offer on Uber eats, and decided to try it out after great yelp…read morereviews. Yelp was right. Flavorful, filling, and fresh. I got the white sauce on the lamb and the spicy red sauce on the side. Unfortunately after a few bites I put too much hot sauce on, which made it less enjoyable, but that was my fault. I'd order this again, very solid, reminded me of some of the best halal trucks in NYC. 5*.

I was very curious about a place close by on my drive. One thing that caught my attention was the…read morecuisine of Mediterranean food. I was nearby and had to stop in to Sami's Gyro House. I walked and was greeted by the owner. I had to try the lamb gyro and make it a combo with fries and fountain drink. I took it to go and ate it at home. The fries were hot and crispy with that nice bite to it. Everyone likes fresh crispy fries. The lamb gyro was delicious. Just the right amount of meat and vegetable toppings with the cucumber, tomato, chickpea and lots of white tzatziki sauce all on a nice fluffy pita. Messy but a good messy. Overall the visit to Sami's Gyro House was a good experience. The seating is readily available, casual, and some other nice options on the menu. The price is affordable, food is fresh, and I have a place I can stop by for a gyro. I usually would drive all the way to Hillcroft for Shawarma but this is good. I'd love to stop in again to try the rice platters. Also I was super hungry, I forgot to take a picture of the food but believe me, it was solid haha

We also shared some stellar hummus and pita bread...some of the best we've had. We also shared a plate of chicken tika which was even better than the beef kabob. Both plates came with some rice and a salad. Next visit, yep.... we're already talking about a next visit....I may try the smash burger and my significant other is talking about the chicken tenders....lots of goodies to try.
