I love this halal truck!! My favorite in Austin. The food is excellent (beef over rice is my go-to), but the staff is super friendly, and provides quick service. Absolutely can't go wrong here! read more

Why 4 stars? Because I had a halal itch and this kind of scratched it. --- --- --- I recently visited New York and every time I do that, I usually have to visit a halal cart. This time, I barely managed to squeeze one into my trip, and it was kind of a last minute stop from a food truck that wasn't even on Yelp. It was fine, but I was left yearning for more after barely getting a taste of it. Enter: my trip to Austin. Upon doing my food research, I was struck by Halal Time's great rating and couldn't pass up the opportunity to visit. I was staying in a hotel less than a mile away, which made it even easier to stop by. The result? I wouldn't say it fully hit the spot on what I'd remembered from old NYC trips, but I did enjoy it. I went with the Beef Shawarma Over Rice plate and it was a perfectly "good, not great" dinner. read more

Halal Time - Beef Shawarma Over Rice - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

This place is fire I love their beef wrap! 10/10 recommend. The people are very nice and the jalapeño poppers are awesome

First let me start and say the portion is huge. I could not finish it and it was very tasty. At first I thought it was too much sauce but once you mix everything together. It was the perfect amount. the chicken meal and baklava dessert was $17 which I felt was good price. My complaint. I preordered on door dash and picked up my order and 3 of my coworkers orders. I get a 30 min lunch and it takes me 8 min to get there and another 8 min to get so I should have had plenty of time. I go up to the window, tell him I'm here to pick up the order and he says door dash has not given him orders for 3 days. So my orders were not made. I had to call everyone to find out what they order and as I'm calling out the orders he's like oh yes I see them. Very confused as to how he has no orders but also has orders? There was construction and graduations going on that day so my commute was a little longer but he not having the orders ready also made me late. read more

2 THUMBS WAY DOWN! Discriminating bIk oId maIe employee/cook. I came to the window to grab my order from my office on new years eve. There were 3 men standing around me who had already been helped. So the guy looks at me with a nasty look and goes and starts their orders completely not acknowledging me at the window. I wait patiently as doordash says my order is ready to pick up. Agin he starts reaching around me to give them their orders still not acknowledging me and then he walks away from me. I looked at him and walked away and went to Taco Wey where the young man was completely accommodating and helped me right away. Disgusting prejudice @ hoIe. Got a full refund from DD tho. You get what you put out into the world. Remember that gramps read more

Delicious & Worth the Stop! Halal Time is a true gem in East Austin! The chicken over rice was packed with flavor--tender meat, fluffy rice, and their sauces are so good. Portions are big and prices are fair. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. If you're in the area, this food truck is a must-try! read more

Halal Time - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

I am so glad to see Halal Time still thriving on E. 6th! Drove by last weekend and the area was packed. Parking is not easy but made my way over to this trailer. Sam (the owner) was there, working his tail off as usual. I went for his awesome Falafel over rice, minus the yellow sauce. And it's been a while but his cheese fries are to die for! After several years - the falafel here is still the best I have ever had - no joke. It has this nice robust seasoning and a tad bit of heat to it. No other falafel tastes as good as his. It's my favorite dish here - anything falafel. I love his red and white sauce too. Now - he used to have purple pickles, and they were slightly sweet, but he changed the recipe to a salty pickle. They are good, but those purple sweet pickles were oh so awesome, and a great balance with the savory dishes. Those cheese fries - omg - now I know it's just melted cheese in the microwave added to his crispy fries - but he adds in the white and red sauce, and ketchup, and oh man that is an awesome late night gluttony dish. I just love it. Took the two dishes home to share with my neighbor girl - she went nuts and now she's in love........with Halal Time, not me. ; - ) read more

I love Halal time!! I get the falafel plate and it's enough for my partner and I to get full, with a side of the fries. We can always count on Halal time on a late night! The customer service is always genuine and pleasant. We Always look forward to going back! You won't regret it! The environment is always nice and we feel welcomed to eat there or in our car! read more

Halal Time - Falafel Over Rice seasoned fries - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

Amazing service. We miscommunicated asking for tzatziki sauce on the side for a falafel plate and they accidentally put it on our plate. No problem they redid the order and let us keep the original plate. They didn't complain they just took care of us. The food was delicious and fresh! read more

Pretty good food to serve the drinking and late night scene. The lamb over rice was good and well balanced. It was missing a memorable punch. The fried breaded jalapeños wasn't really worth it. Price was fair and location was easy. No parking though. 4 -stars for being available for the late night crowd read more

My favorite Mediterranean food in Austin. I've been to Israel and I am a snob about fresh food. This food truck is consistently great.

Classic halal cart although you can't beat their price. Only $12.99 for a chicken over rice plate, I feel like most carts charge $15-16. They give you a lot portion wise and load up the white sauce read more

I love halal food, and I love places that open late even more. My friend highly recommended this food truck and after a long night out, it truly hit the spot. I recommend getting their gyro over rice. As you can tell, they give a really good balance of salad, meat, and rice. They were also super generous with the white sauce, which I love. I like the rice grains a lot because I've been to some halal food places where the rice grains are a bit too hard. Overall, 10/10 halal food. I will be coming back again and again. read more

Halal Time - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

Halal Time is one of the precious gems of Austin. Nestled into East 6th street near a multitude of bars, Halal Time is a haven for those seeking a late night meal. Food is always fresh and comes out quickly, not to mention the very reasonable prices in a food landscape that continues to grow unsustainably expensive. The lamb wrap is a real treat, especially after a few libations in the area. If you're really feeling hungry, go for the side of hummus and a baklava to accompany your main. Cannot go wrong with anything here. read more

Tried this place with some friends recently. And I can tell you that we are going back. We all tried the plates and weren't disappointed with our meals. The guys there were pretty fast and super nice. read more

cheese fries used to be amazing. now they use a cheap nacho cheese sauce instead of real cheese. and for $9? I can get a gyro at some trucks for that. only upside is theyre open late. read more

Responded to my review - I was hungry and cranky they didn't open a few times, but the food that I got today was amazing. Well worth the wait read more

So I have developed a halal addiction since a few weeks ago. My latest halal adventure happened while having drinks at the Low Down Lounge. Halal Time is right next door and conveniently open early. I had lamb shawarma and chicken over rice and it was so good. I was disappointed about the garbanzo beans given I had ordered it without but other than that, I was extremely satisfied with my food. read more

Halal Time - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

Halal Time is a good time! logistics: We came here after happy hour drinks in East Austin based off a recommendation from some guy with a podcast. We had street parking and just walked the couple blocks over. food: This is the perfect late-night, after drinks food. Given it was only 9pm or 10 pm on a Friday, it wasn't busy. They didn't have Falafel that night (probably because of the ice storm), but the lamb was cooked to perfection. That white sauce is the star. I think it's tzatziki and it's delicious on the rice and the fries! I ordered fries for the drive home and they were so crispy and warm. In-n-out needs to take some notes. service: The service was outstanding! The gentleman who took our order was so kind and helpful. He apologized multiple times for the wait and it had only been about 10 min. I really appreciated that even though I was perfectly fine waiting. read more

Halal Time - French fries - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

It's Halal time! Had a great experience stopping by for food; it's kind of weird experience because its this lonely truck in a lot with a couple of picnic tables; Kinda of woulda thought there would be more food trucks huddling together. In any case, food out of here was hot fast and fresh and definitely hit the spot after having a few drinks around town. Their thing appears to be open at night time so do recommend! read more

Was looking for a quick and easy bite and saw this food truck with a decent line even after 9pm. I got the lamb wrap to share and it was delicious! Loved the flavors of the lamb and the veggies tasted fresh and gave the wrap a nice crunch. I appreciated that there were a few benches near the trucks that we could sit and eat out! read more

This place was a godsend when my bf and I landed in Austin late at night. It was the only place open within miles from our hotel. When we showed up at 1am, we already saw a line formed so we knew it must be good. We got a combination chicken and lamb over rice. Flavor is much different than NY but very good. I just can't justify paying $12 for it when it only costs $6 normally. read more

Halal Time - Combination Plate - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

I wish I could make it Halal time ,every time sheesh. That Chicken shawarma wrap was the absolute truth. I couldn't even put it down long enough before it was all gone . Nice food truck and there's seating as well to sit down and enjoy your food. The customer service was very pleasant and helpful. The wait wasn't too long for the wrap and side of fries. Food is made fresh to order and the is no complaints at all about quality/quantity . An array of Mediterranean flavors just making my mouth water writing this review. I will definitely be back. read more

This spot is amazing. It's located between the most popular bars on east six street, so it's a short walk away to food if you're drunk and you need something in your stomach. The service is super quick, I swear I ordered and my food was out in like a minute. Delicious! I ordered the combination plate that has chicken and lamb over rice, they made it spicy and boy oh boy was that fire. I loved it! It's a pretty big portion too! Definitely a must try if you're on E. 6th St. read more

Halal Time - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

This is a food truck on the east side of 6th street. There are picnic tables out front but they aren't shaded, so stop in after sundown. We ordered two combination plates. It's lamb and chicken over rice with tomato, lettuce, pickle and chickpeas on the side, all covered in a delicious white sauce. Even when we were mostly through with the meal, the flavor was strong and delicious. I usually hate rice. It is absolutely decadent under the meat and sauce. I would crave this every day. read more

Halal Time - Combo plate in all its glory - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

It seems the secret is out about Halal Time because they had raised their prices by the time I got there. I was annoyed at first but after the first bite I got it. They are strategically located right across from Hotel Vegas on E 6 so it's almost a filtering system to make your way over there. Very very good food. read more

Halal Time - Menu - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

Food truck on East 6th near the bars, great for late night food after some drinks or even a stop by for dinner if you're in the mood for Mediterranean food. I was excited to try this place after seeing the 5 star reviews and its not too far from my house. Stopped by on a Thursday evening after a workout with a friend and there was no line which was very nice. We both got the combo (gyro + chicken) rice plates, comes with salad and tzatziki sauce + spicy sauce. The spicy sauce had good flavor and a decent kick to it. I thought the chicken was a bit too dry hence 4 stars instead of 5 stars but the gyro meat was solid. I would come back to try it again (hopefully the chicken isn't dry next time around) or would try other things on the menu. My other knock on this is the price of the food for being a food truck; food truck overhead should be lower than brick and mortar but their prices are the same as a sit down restaurant - its around $12-$13 for the rice plates. I get it you're paying for the location and convenience by the bars, but you can get other Mediterranean places with dedicated free parking and indoor seat (with AC) for the same price or slightly less in Austin. read more

Landed at Austin and directly went to Halal Time since this was one of the few well rated food trucks that was open way past midnight.. we ordered the chicken and falafel wrap (delicious love the sauce and the falafel was nice crispy crunchy while the chicken was juicy and flavorful - great wrap), chicken over rice was great, falafel over rice was great too. If you check in via Yelp they offer free french fries with your order and their french fries are really good served with hot sauce.. if you like your food spicy then please ask for additional hot sauce to add to your wrap or rice bowl.. overall loved our dinner here at Halal Time.. there was a huge line post 1am and I can see this place being really busy on a weekend..highly recommend these guys! read more

After a night of partying in Austin, honey and I were hungry. It was 3am and we didn't want anything from downtown so we just started cruising. We see this little truck posted up all by its lonesome self at 3am and we stopped. Best decision of the night. Order everything but make sure you get their special fries too. You're welcome read more

The tastiest Halal in Austin so far. I stumbled upon this food truck one Friday evening, and, oh boy, am I glad I did. There are too many other Halal foods trucks and restaurants that leave something to be desired. Not Halal Time. This was a winner! My chicken shwarma was delish! Chicken was flavorful, moist and plenty; rice was seasoned well and side salad was fresh and tasty They top it off with a generous portion of garlic sauce and hot sauce. All this at a reasonable price and served up in a timely and friendly manner. What more can you ask for?? Will definitely be back and definitely recommend to others! read more

Ordered some food from here via Uber eats and usually I have the problem with the delivery, not the food but this time is was the opposite. The food arrived looking perfectly fine, but as I dug into my lamb over my rice dish - I realized everything was so heavily salted. I thought it was just my dish, but my friend who got the combo of chicken and lamb over rice also said his dish was really salty. We both couldn't finish the rest of our foods. Really hoping this was just an off day for them, since they seem to be rated highly on Uber eats. read more

Halal Time - Hummus pita and a side of rice - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

I was pretty drunk and for some reason my card wasn't working, and the man running the truck said, "it's okay, you can get us next time". I was a loyal customer before, but I can't imagine eating anywhere else now. I was able to pull money out at an ATM and cannot express how happy I am to spend money at a company with not only quality food, but quality people. Thank you so much! Delicious food with incredible service. 10/10 read more

This is a top-tier restaurant. The portion size is enormous for the price and the owner, Sam, makes the falafel fresh in front of me every time I order it. Extremely friendly service, and amazing hummus as well. Bonus: they're open SUPER late, which caters to my night owl appetite. The dollmah is also amazing and comes with veggies and hummus. read more

Halal Time - Falafel Over Rice - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

Halal Time is awesome! I ordered their Gyro over Rice. I loved how the dish came with lots of gyro and white sauce. The portion was a really good size and had good ratios of meat/rice/sauce which is typically hard to get right. I also love how they are opened later so if you're looking for a late-night affordable snack it's the perfect place. The prices here are also really great/reasonable compared to other Halal places I've been to. Parking to get here is a little tricky since it's all street parking so that is something to keep in mind before coming. read more

The best food in town! The owner, Sam, is so kind and very hard working. He makes everything fresh. The flavors that come from his dishes are seriously out of this world. Although it's not a vegan restaurant, we really appreciate that he makes our food vegan. We order the falafel Wrap, Frys, hummus, & Falafel over Rice. They're all so delicious. Check them out! Thanks Sam!! read more
