    Chx shawarma
    Ann S.

    Will never return. This isn't the authentic way to make middle eastern food. Very disappointed in the shawarma. The chicken had a distinct taste that I couldn't figure out. (I'm Jordanian). Not enough veggies and barely any garlic sauce. I ordered humus. They served only a dollop of humus with pita. Humus is from a can and they don't even try to dress/fix it up. Disgusting. Never again!

    After an exhausting afternoon at ACL boy were we happy to find this place! This place served up delicious food and we were so thankful that ACL was inclusive enough to include halal food. I had a string fries craving so we got the beef and lamb gyro over fries and it did not disappoint. I was worried that the fries might get soggy but they didn't and salty fries mixed with spiced meat, creamy white sauce and feta and zingy red sauce was arguably perfection. The owner seemed really nice and even gave us more halal recommendations for other vendors at ACL which was super nice of him!! (Though I forget what these were) all in all would definitely try this place again.

    Food: 3/5 Not bad but not great. I had this place at ACL - a balanced musical festival meal that served all the needs: carb, protein, and veggie. Do not think I will be going. Here otherwise. The chicken wasn't that flavorful // overall the dish was lacking flavors. I wish also that there had been more sauce on the food.

    Was super full but couldn't resist getting an order of falafel. It was so good! Crispy on the outside, moist and delicious on the inside. The two gentlemen who worked the truck tonight was super nice and friendly.

    Needed a quick bite while at work and decided to give Shawarma Point a try. This is your very standard shawarma food truck. It wasn't the best I've had and it also wasn't the worst. The food came out pretty quickly but the food lacked flavor and the chicken was a bit rubbery.

    Heat for your food...

    I ordered the Beef and Lamb Wrap, mild, with extra white sauce. My daughter ordered the Beef and Lamb plate. I am a huge fan of Gyros. While the one I ate here was good, I have had better quality at other establishments. The white sauce is not Taziki suace, its tastes like a creamy garlic sauce. The plates are not much more in cost but seem to be double the size with ingredients. They ask how spicy you want it, I asked for mild but it was definitely hot. The ingredients were good quality though. Just really surprising at the quantity difference between the plate and the wrap when they cost about the same...

    We like the beef/lamb shawarmas here. Taste very fresh with the lettuce. The bread is like fresh naan/pita bread.

Most of the time I am at St Elmo Brewing…read moreand alternate between having Spicy Boys or Patty Palace for food so I don't make it down to check what's new as often I should. Reem's is located by Spokesman coffee and I recently was able to learn about them and try their falafel at a Yelp event, and it really was the best falafel I had ever had - well seasoned, perfectly crisp, yet light on the inside. Ever since, I had bookmarked it so I could try more. I ordered a Chicken Plate and a Falafel Plate for delivery to share with a friend. They both traveled well. The plates come with a side of tabouli and hummus. I got the Spicy Hummus, which I didn't get any heat at all so I would order spicier in the future. The tabouli was nice and bright from the fresh parsley. The chicken was okay but I think I'd try the beef and lamb instead. The falafel was just as good as I remembered and I can see myself just buying a side of falafel every time I walk by.

I came back because I appreciated having a sample today reflected the main dishes of a Jerusalem street food truck. I order using the he link to their toast. They were on a break, so I had to wait a little longer. The link to order came in handy vs me waiting to put an order in until someone arrived. I ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and a side of falafels. My falafels were crispy and flavorful. The chicken shawarma wrap was the perfect size. The amount of meat on the wrap was really good, all of the ingredients were balanced well. The chicken was flavorful as well. I wanted to order fries, but they were sold out. There is plenty of seating available throughout St. Elmo. You can sit outside, listen to music, and grab a drimk from other businesses. I will definitely go again!

We ordered the half order falafel with hummus, mint lemonade, lamb kabob platter, and beef kabob platter. Everything but the salad came in large Texas style portions.

The garlic sauce enhances the flavor of rice.

However, I'll think about coming here again because I didn't feel a good vibe with the service. We had to go look for someone to show us the table even though the place was empty for early lunch. Then, to get drinks or even the order was a problem. It took so much longer than usual. Our waitress was rude, and seemed bothered that we showed up. Then someone else came as the waitress and she was preoccupied with other tables and barely checked on us. A regular lunch which would've been one hour became almost two because of the lack of service. My friend had to stand and look for someone to give us a box to take out the good we couldn't eat because it was getting late and also to get the check because No one came in to check on us at all. It was almost like pulling teeth to get a regular service let alone good service. Again, the food was really good, and that alone was the only positive.

The grocery store has fresh fetas, olive bar, fresh in house made baklava (traditional, pistachio, walnut).. that was amazing! NOT soggy and 2.50 per piece.. great layers of crunch on the top and not too sweet. I'd go back for a tray of those!! We will def be back! You should check this out too! Its across from Amy's Ice creamoff Barton on S.Lamar. Stand alone building with blue signage. Don't be scared... go take an adventure. Small parking lot.. maybe holds 6-8 cars max and easy in/out of Lamar.

    I come here exclusively for the pistachio baklava cheesecake. The parking situation is a bit of a…read moreheadache but totally worth it. I've only ever ordered takeout at the counter so I can't speak to the dine-in experience, but the service is smooth and efficient. Dessert is ready in about 5 minutes and food orders during busy dinner hours have taken around 20 minutes, which honestly wasn't bad at all given how packed they get. Everything is always packaged nicely and securely, and the food is consistently delicious. They also carry other sweets worth trying like honey cakes and pistachio baklava. On the savory side, some dishes I've really enjoyed are the Mezze Platter, Beef and Lamb Doner, and Ribeye Steak Shish Kebab. It's not super loud but the front can get a bit overstimulating when it's busy, so if you're not a fan of crowds I'd recommend coming outside of peak hours. This most recent time, I didn't realize until I was home that they forgot to pack one of the baklava cheesecakes I'd ordered. They were able to refund me over the phone when I couldn't come back to pick it up. Highly recommend!

The meat was juicy and tender, topped with a rich tomato sauce, and the yogurt added a perfect balance. The bread soaks up all the juices, making every bite incredibly flavorful. You can tell this isn't just "Turkish food" -- it's made with real attention to detail. For the main course, we had a mixed grill: doner, kebab, and chicken. Everything was cooked just right -- nothing dry, with a nice charcoal flavor. The doner stood out in particular -- very juicy with great texture. The rice was fluffy, sides were fresh, and the sauces complemented everything well. We also tried the pide (a Turkish-style flatbread/boat pizza). The dough was soft inside with a crispy crust, and the topping was rich and well-balanced. Overall: -- generous portions -- fair prices for the quality -- fast service -- casual but cozy atmosphere If you like Turkish food or just want a solid, satisfying meat-based meal -- this spot is definitely worth checking out.
