Food still superb. My advice is to def check your to go order bag thoroughly B4 you leave. One star off on this follow up review. Last 3 visits they've managed to not get things I paid for into the pick up to go bag. Blew it off first two times they blew it. Blew my stack and went back the third time. Bitch better have my tabouleh! Their tabouleh is soooo good & fresh when I saw it wasn't in the bag I drove back two miles on shot tires & sparking rims with a posse of angry Georgia state troopers in hot pursuit to get that left outta the bag tabouleh like I was James Brown on a minty green crack bender. I ordered online and they messed up the order. I ordered in person handing them the receipt from a previous order and they messed it up. How do you do that?!? What gives wit da brain dead, smiling but checked out yoots manning this manna from heaven place? If we circle the wagons and collectively check our orders right in front of them we can together begin the arduous uphill battle of rebuilding the rifts tearing this great nation asunder. 20 somethings say this job sucks. I say exactly. It's why we gave it to you. read more

Ate there the other day and shortly after two of us had stomach cramps and nauseated. Rice was curry yellow but had very little flavor. Chicken kabob meat seemed to taste ok but was dry. I asked for light rice and mainly lettuce and got a ton of rice with little lettuce. I wouldn't eat here again. Paid way too much for this meal that ended up lack luster and making me feel ill. read more

On a whim at 10:30 pm on a post-holiday weekday, we decided to give Halal Bros a try. I've had my fair share of Mediterranean foods, and I can say Halaal Bros had some GREAT food and equally great service! We had the falafel plate and lamb shawarma over rice. Both plates were of exceptional quality and taste. The falafel was crisp, hot, and flavorful, the accompanying sides were fresh, and some of the best hummus ever. The lamb shawarma was hearty, but not heavy, with an amazing flavor of the lamb coming through the heavily spiced dish. All this great food at a great value. The only minor drawback I experienced was that the pita bread was a bit hard and chewy - probably from sitting in the foil wrapper under a warmer too long. That minor issue aside, Halal Bros is now my go-to for Mediterranean. Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

I love this place a lot the reason for giving them one star is they are not taking phone orders and making the customers wait for atleast 1/2 hr also they are charging $2 more on each dish when you order the same online. I think in the covid situation they should take the phone orders and not make us wait and make thing more vulnerable for covid 19. read more

This is the best place for Halal in Austin! Don't miss out on the Dolma & Hummus & the lamb gyro wrap.. it's out of site! Check out the choice eats at this totally rad place!! read more

Excited to finally find a good spot for Mediterranean food!! It's simple and healthy. The service was fast and overall my experience was very good!! I would definitely come back to try more things on the menu. I got Chicken Shawarma, lamb shawarma and a side of falafel. Let me tell you there were nothing left by the end. The price is reasonable for the quality and quantity of the food. I really like the small salad on the side. read more

Was my first time trying gyro and it was delishous. I'd most definitely be back and recomend to others.

I've been to their Guadalupe location and it's just as good as that one. I think overall, it's better than the Guadalupe location. First of all, the space. You don't have to cram in a small space but there's enough space to bring a group of like 8 people. Parking is not an issue either. It feels clean as well. Great service as well! Food wise, it's not much different from their other location. They give you plenty. You get the most bang for your buck because I always have some leftover for the next day's lunch. There's nothing in the menu I can think of where you can go wrong with. The gyro over rice or any meat over rice for that matter is always solid. read more

This place has never let me down, can't believe I'm just now making a review. When I need some good hot fresh food in a pinch, this has been my go to. Whether it's wraps or plates, the meat is always well seasoned and tender, the white and red sauces are amazing, the portions are huge, cheap, fast service, there's nothing not to like about halal bros. read more

Awesome food for the price. Portions are massive, can easily be 3 lunches. Recommend ordering ahead if you're coming for lunch, this place fills up fast! read more

Not impressed. I've had halal guys and it's super good. I ordered the beef shawarma over rice, it wasn't very flavorful. And the white sauce wasn't really special. My friend liked his gyro, but said he'd do without the falafel inside. He gave it a 3.5. When I tried the gyro my bite was full of like sand? So when I bite into it, it was crunchy and I was scared I was gonna break a tooth. Maybe dirt or sand from the produce I'm assuming. The food was okay, i didn't feel guilty eating it, the rice was really fresh. So I give it a 3. If you're in Houston try halal guys, it's awesome. read more

Don't trust thus place If you are vegan. I order a chicken shawarma wrap and a falafel. I specifically told the guy at the counter that I am vegan so for the famno white sauce and don't steam the pita over meat. The white sauce is watered down mayonnaise so it contains egg. I tell him specifically not to do white sauce but tahini bc the white sauce is not vegan. I bring up again while they are making my order not to do the pita on top of meat because I am vegan. I open the falafel and it is dripping with mayo. I take my falafel wrap up and say, this is white sauce not tahini. Then the guy says, you didn't want white sauce? They don't offer to fix it, they don't offer to give me my money back for the falafel wrap. I have to ask for that. I used to be an assistant general manager and regional corporate trainer for a Halal Guys on the west coast. I don't know what the management here is teaching the staff, but I made sure at my stores to make a deliberate point of making sure that if someone orders a falafel to not only ask if they have dietary restrictions on meat, but to then go out if the way to heat the pita on a separate piece of foil on the grill. This was a year before I went plant based. I had a craving for falafel, and made many overtures to let them know my dietary restrictions. They made no effort to do more than ignore me. You need to train your staff. At least my spouse is going to eat, but I am not coming back here. I'd give this negative stars if possible and to my plant based diet friends, I am telling them to steer clear. read more

This is one of the best Mediterranean food in Austin. The food is amazing. The loaded Fries and the fresh lemonade is a must try! I love that they keep the red and white sauce on the table. Its magic! A "MUST VISIT" place if you like Mediterranean food! And also did I forget the mention, the price is reasonable and pocket friendly. The food is fresh and the ambiance is casual. Love everything about this place! Keep up the good work guys! read more

First had it out of a food cart in Manhattan and loved it. This place is every bit as good. I had the beef kabob and my husband had the chicken over rice. Both were excellent. Both came with a salad and perfectly cooked rice. Salad was really fresh. Nice and friendly staff. read more

My fiancé and I just ordered from here...it is our absolutely favorite. We get it once a week. We just treated ourself to this during quarantined times and there was no sauce on our meal and We were so sad/disappointed. That's the best part! We didn't check off no sauce when ordering so I'm sure this was just a mistake but definitely an unfortunate one. read more

I was so happy when I found out there was a Halal Bros up north now. No longer do I need to trek to campus, fight for parking, and then get my favourite falafel over rice with that crack sauce. Great space, friendly people, great food. What more can you ask for? Just go there and get your falafel or shawrma fix. read more

awesome sauce yes, really, the white sauce is excellent, much better than numerous middle eastern places in austin. was craving fries so i went for the drenched in white & hot sauce ones, plus gyro plate they are enough for two but i didnt share because it was all so good partner got shwarma and he was super happy too did give a friend we were visiting a taste and she was super impressed too. just sad i live on other side of town and dont get up north that often or this would be a regular stop read more

New review concerning CUSTOMER SERVICE...Amazing food and The woman who works weekDAYS is such a sweetheart and cares about the guests and their experience, never have I ever had such amazing Mediterranean food before in my life. Unfortunately today, I was extremely disappointed and aggravated, SATURDAY at 11am when I called for my to go orders the young lady on the phone was completely rude.... She answered the phone and said "hello" and did not even say the name of the business, leaving me wondering if I dialed the wrong number...I was trying to speak to her and she completely hung up on me,and was unknowledgeable about substitutions and when I placed my orders she told it would be ready in 5 minutes, (I live just around the corner) so whenever I get there I had to wait 15 more minutes for the orders (EVEN ASKED the chef how long the lamb would take to "heat up", which to me means they just covered it all night). Literally leaving me dumbfounded. I personally believe that the first impressions are very important. (OPEN sign was NOT on and the soda machine didn't work...which I am pretty sure she charged me for and I just got water wasn't even reimbursed) so amazing food .... But having someone rude, who is not aware of complete menu options,and is mediocre with guests is inexcusable. Very disappointed with today's experience read more

Food is awesome as always. Our regular orders are Lamb or chicken shawarma over rice. Chicken Kabab over rice is also tasty.

I love their chicken shawerma over rice!! They give you a very generous helping of it too!! read more

Halal Bros - Mediterranean Near Me - Austin, Texas

"Mmm, food coma" OK, kids, if you want to down some solid Middle Eastern fare, in a no-frills environment with a no-frills price, Halal Bros is where it's at (darn it, ended on a preposition!). Yummy, brown, hot and plenty of it here. They got your wraps, your plates (protein + rice!), and your sides (hummus, tabouleh, dolmas). My friend and I split some hummus and tabouleh, and we each had our own wraps. There was nothing fancy about the hummus or tabouleh, but it was fresh, well seasoned and there was quite a bit of it (hello, leftovers!). The pita was good, but not in the Peace Deli stratosphere. My gyro + falafel wrap hit all the high notes - the tender beef, soft falafel (not dried out under a heatlamp!), creamy white sauce and fresh veggies - it is all good. Beware that the temperature of the wrap can be pretty darn hot - had to let it cool for a bit (and resist that tempting smell) before diving in. Prices are good for what you get. The place is in a strip mall with that cafeteria vibe, but the food, service and price are right. read more

You know what sucks? I've been eating Halal Bros since they were a food truck. I DJ till late at night downtown so I'd always visit the food truck and they would always know my order and have it ready for me - that's how often I get food from them. I was so excited when they open one up north since I live up North. The food is equally good and everything taste just like I remembered. But MAN, do you guys have the WORST employees at the North location. I've never been rude and I've never been demanding. They have an attitude problem just taking your order like I am inconveniencing them. I am sorry if you had a bad day, I can empathize. But it's like this EVERY TIME I go, like I killed their dogs or something. They don't even bother to seal the lids on the containers on a to go order and they slam the food on the counter when the order is ready. Unaware of that, I drove home ready to eat the food only to find rice spilled everywhere, in my car. So...yeah. Fuck your attitude. I didn't make you work there. Sorry you hate your customers but I didn't do anything wrong to you. read more

Great taste every time I go and very welcoming staff! Chicken kabobs are amazing, just wish they would add some cooked veggies to the menu.

10/10 One of my favorite places to eat in all of Austin. Also one of the best values. First, I have never had any lamb before that I really liked. I love the lamb here. I prefer it to either the beef or the chicken, although those are good too. I recommend: -Chicken/Lamb over rice (make sure to get plenty of red and white sauce) -gyro wrap -loaded fries Very happy Halal Bros. opened up a North location. read more

I have tried the Falafel Over Rice and Chicken Shawarma over rice with French fries and I must say it's the best middle eastern food I have had in Austin till date. The owners are smart to provide a takeout box for dine-in as the food portion is too much to eat in one go. They have nice Lemonade in the fridge. It's a bit costly for $2 but I liked it. read more

A very bad costumer service and they don't care about the customer, i went there today and I ordered 2 lamp shawarmas and i said no hot sauce cause I'm allergic to hot sauce, i got my food and i start eating it then i just found out they put hot sauce on my food under the meat i talk to one of the girls there she said( let me see if they can make you some more meet) I waited 30 minuets and I didn't get my food so i had to throw the food away and leave. Thanks for that Halal bros read more

Hands down my favorite Mediterranean food spot to go! I love my rice, and their Lamb Shwarma Over Rice never disappoints.

25mins to get a Kabob is a really long time. The wrap we had was really good. We shouldn't have to wait so long for lunch where everyone else has finished there meal. read more

Everything about this place is wonderful! The employees are friendly, the prices are low, the portions are huge, and the food is out of this world. Today was my first visit, and I had the combo over rice based on the recommendation of another yelper. It was really, really good, although I'm betting everything here is. The combo has chicken and gyro meat over saffron rice and is smothered in white and red sauce. I don't know what either sauce is yet, but both were so delicious so I'm glad they put a lot on there. It also comes with a small lettuce, cucumber, and tomato salad. The food was cooked fresh but still came out in a timely manner. I ate til I was full and still took more than half home. All for $8. My taste buds and my wallet are singing together in harmony! I can't wait to go back and try other menu items! read more

This is my first time trying out Halal anything so I was a bit nervous. I looked at a lot of reviews and went with getting a combo meat on salad. That gyro meat is DELICIOUS. It's such a huge portion, I definitely have leftovers for tomorrow. The wait was a bit much and the music a bit too loud but I found the food to be worth it. Whole meal was $10 after tip. TIP: mix the 2 sauces together (white and red) and it's just perfection for a topping! read more

The food is good except the fries consistencies. Sometimes they're salted and crispy and sometimes soggy and little taste. Also, ordered a salad recently that tasted like the cleaning agents you smell when you get close to the till cause it's what they clean the kitchen and bathroom with. The chemical smell was obviously a huge turn off. read more

Oh my god. That saffron rice. ORDER A RICE PLATE! I love their falafel and the chicken kebab. They chicken schwarma is okay but the kebab has a better grilled flavor. I like that the rice plate comes with a little salad with lettuce, tomatoes, and rotating usage of pickles and/or cucumbers. The produce is always really fresh and fully ripe. The white sauce is what dreams are made of - get extra for no charge. The hummus is missing something. Not sure what it is. One time I got a wrap instead of the rice plate and won't be doing that again. The rice plate is just SO good! Fantastic value. The employees have always been friendly as can be. The atmosphere isn't much, so I order take-out. read more

We are big fans of this restaurant. They have a nice range of mild to spicy foods. We've tried everything on the menu and have never been disappointed. They also give you tons of food for the money. The hummus is some of the best I've ever had. I'm also obsessed with the white sauce and red sauce. The only thing I would change is to put the pita bread back up on the sides menu. read more

Ordered for pickup as a small group at lunch - so 3 kebabs and one plate. Paid online on one card (all that was offered) and someone picked it up. All was good until I opened mine and my lamb kebab + falafel wrap only had falafel. Called and told them the mixup and they refused to refund. The falafel wasn't too bad, which is why they rightfully have one star, but their refusal to fix their mistake is what is going to prevent me, or anyone in this office, from ever returning. Made quite the first impression on me. TLDR - Check your order BEFORE you leave the place because they won't refund/fix their mistakes once you leave. read more

First time eating here. I loved the food! Reminded me of my time being deployed to the Middle East. I loved the shawarma there and this is definitely on point with it. They give you a very generous portion of food and the flavor is amazing! The only constructive criticism I would add is, if you have an online order. It wasn't very clear if I needed to stand in the ordering line to get my food or if I could just go up to the counter and ask about it. Overall, very positive experience here. read more

I didn't add the 5th star because I didn't actually order an entree, just the sides. But I really loved the sides. I've been to some Mediterranean places that are not authentic, and at least the sides I had here tasted just like how my Lebanese friends make them! I'm a fan - I look forward to going back and ordering a full meal. It looks like they give a large portion of food too which is nice. read more

I'm not much for writing reviews but this establishment makes some fantastic shawarma WRAPS. I highly recommend over the rice bowls (which are good) but the wraps are where it's at. Chicken shawarma, lamb shawarma. Just do yourself a favor and try it. read more

Wow! I'm obsessed! I've been coming here almost weekly for the past six months. My go to? Chicken shawarma over rice. The chicken is always delicious, well cooked, good quality meat. They include a little salad that mixes in well with the rice plates. Who knew that tomato and cucumber in rice would be such an addicting combination! The sauces are awesome. The red is very spicy and the white is a yogurt sauce that dulls the fire. Any ingredient that you don't like you can ask for on the side. Plus there are squeeze bottles of sauce that you can bring to your table so you can have as much or as little as you want. The employees are very friendly! I have been here SO many times and have never had a bad experience. The pricing is extremely reasonable, especially considering you can get 2-3 meals out of the rice plate (it's a LOT of food). And the food is always ready very quickly. Chicken seems to take a bit longer for them to prepare, but still pretty fast. This place is pretty popular and can get very busy, so I try to avoid "meal times." This is one of my favorite restaurants. I highly recommend!! read more

Ordered the chicken kebab plate, pita bread, domals and hummus- not only is it delicious but it has stretched enough for 3 meals!! Good prices and very fresh and tasty ingredients. Will definitely be adding this restaurant to my list! Also, for people that complain that you didn't get enough sauce, ASK for some. Seriously I leave with at least 5 white sauces on the side. And this restaurants gives very generous portions. I literally just read someone's review that said they were given too much food. That is an "issue" I wish more restaurants had. Bottom line, it's a fast causal food restaurants, low prices, big portions and great flavor. read more
