No surprise that parking is more challenging now since there are quite a few businesses, but not a lot of space to maneuver or park. In fact, I almost got in an accident coming here! The Madina Halal Grill has expanded from a small hole in the wall, to two holes. LOL! It looks like the took over the area next door and connected them with a small doorway. What is great about this is that the initial room is great for placing your order, looking at the menu, chatting with the staff, paying, and waiting around for your food to come out. The next room over is great for finding a seat, relaxing, and eating without being jostled by people coming and going. Food was pretty good. I forgot to specify the bread wrap, so my sandwich was more like panini than a shawarma. My husband was less than enthralled. He wasn't a fan of the lamb mix, but that is to be expected as he didn't grow up with it and hasn't learned to acquire a taste for it. Staff are really friendly here. Food comes out quickly and remains hot on the way home.

The most authentic Iraqi food in the Dallas area. Gilgamesh in Richardson is the real deal…read more We tried the Family BBQ Mix,a massive platter of lamb, chicken, and kebabs with rice, grilled vegetables, and the biggest flatbread I've ever seen. The beef shawarma was juicy and well-seasoned, and the lentil soup that comes at the start of the meal is one of the most comforting soups I've had. Don't leave without ordering the Lamb Kozi -- slow-cooked fall-off-the-bone lamb over Iraqi rice. Highly recommend for anyone looking for something different and genuinely delicious in DFW.

Toum and eggplant salad were stars of the show here For entrees, we got the beef kabab, chicken kababs and shish tawook. Chicken was also good but beef tasted pretty gamey and definitely not as flavorful. Arrayes were disappointing. Not nearly enough filling and beef also tasted gamey. Apricot juice and the Gilgamesh juice were both pretty good and refreshing. Water is NOT free so be prepared. Service was good as well. What's keeping this from 4-5 stars is if the beef was fresher and had more flavor. Value was solid just wish the food tasted better.

I've been coming here since around 2010 probably. I really like the food (not so much the racial…read morevibe. They are not too fond of white people it feels like). But today was just too much! I've seen the price go from: $15, $18, $20, to $25... TAX AND CARD FEES HAVE AWLAYS BEEN INCLUDED. Well, today.... The young man told me it was $25 plus tax. So he said it was over $84 for three people. I complained a little to him about it and went on, THEN my wife heard the lady next to my male cashier charge someone the $25 flat with no tax!!!! I of course went and asked her WHY???? She said because the other guy paid with cash.... There is not tax!!!! I said you mean a credit card fee right?? She said NO.... If you pay cash there is no tax!!!!! I'd like the Great State of Texas to look into this one. I bet the comptroller would like to know about this!!! TBH, I really don't think the other guy probably even paid cash. It felt like a hate on whitey move to me. THIS PLACE IS SHADY.

Our most recent trip the complementary iced tea tasted a bit funky but the kofta meatballs were tender and juicy and the spicy rice packed a punch. Always love the complementary pita bread as well.
