Best service I've had. they will Take care of you and make sure everything is okay. They made us feel welcome like family. 10/10 would recommend read more

My first time trying these guys was through Uber eats at 3am and I gotta say I was really impressed with both items I got. Chicken Shawarma bowl was huge and is lasting me for 3 meals now. And I have quite a healthy appetite for reference. Everything in this bowl was amazing: chicken is perfectly seasoned and not fatty, rice is perfectly cooked and flavorful, fresh vegetables and delicious garlic sauce, that wasn't heavy on garlic at all (my preference). My second item was beef shawarma wrap with extra pickles. It was absolutely delicious! I didn't think I was gonna be able to finish it in one sitting because it was big, but I couldn't stop biting into that scrumptious goodness. The meat was plentiful and lean and everything tasted fresh and perfectly seasoned. It was probably one of the best shawarma wraps I've had in years! I will for sure be ordering from this restaurant again. Amazing experience! Keep it up, guys! read more

This place was awesome everything was so good I would recommend this spot ~ we arrived late in Houston and only place open for something healthy and tasty and reasonably priced Falafel Wrap and chicken wrap we're juts right !!! read more

Decent Halal option in the Main downtown area if you're out and about and craving a hearty meal beyond the food trucks. It's a small spot so most times it's a takeout order. if you're comfortable enough to sit outside the establishment you'll most likely encounter various panhandlers as it's a bit of a sketchy area with random foot traffic I've gotten the shawarma rice bowl a few times- the meats are seasoned well, it's a hearty bowl with a combination of veggies/toppings/sauce, comparable to a place like Halal guys but a bit more expensive. Service have always been fairly efficient, it's a reliable option late night. 3.5/5 read more

Abu Omar Halal - Chicken and beef shawarma - Food Trucks Near Me - Houston, Texas

the overall experience of the place was extremely subpar. the price for the lunch special was fair, but the upcharge for sauce made no sense... the dish is supposed to come with white sauce and red sauce w/o extra charge.. but if you visit, i hope your experience works out better than mines! bonne appétit read more

I ordered to-go through Door Dash and they look good! It was good for the price the Lamb Gyro Rice Bowl was $16.20 and I got the Baklava, two pieces for $4.30. The flavor of the lamb was delicious and the baklava was the right amount of sweet. The food was still nice and hot by the time I got the food and they follows my request of no peppers. I would try the food here in person if I was in downtown. I like they use paper bag so less plastic in the world. read more

great people, everyone was very comforting and enjoyable. i thouroughly enjoyed my time here and would definitely recommend to a new timer.

1 Star I really wanted to like Abu Omar, but it was a huge letdown. The food completely lacked flavor -- even the sauces had no taste, which is disappointing for Mediterranean food that's usually packed with spices and freshness. There's also no seating, so definitely plan on taking your food to go (if you go at all). Overall, just bland and forgettable -- not worth the hype. read more

Steady decline in quality over the years, what used to be a go to place with great deals has become something like Taco Bell quality but without the Taco Bell prices. It's a shame but it what it is, there are certainly better tasting shawarma elsewhere (since this shawarma has become intolerably mid). read more

I really liked the hummus and was happy with the pitas and the fries. The shawarma was just ok for me. I hate that gunky garlic-style sauce in general so I asked for tahini sauce and spicy sauce and it wasn't what I was looking for. The sauce on my wrap tasted very thin and vinegary with no creaminess that I would expect from a tahini sauce. I just want basic tahini sauce and sambal-type sauce. So for me, it's a miss. read more

DELICIOUS! I have order delivery from this place many times over the last month, and it's always perfect. Chicken shawarma and lamb gyro shawarma are excellent! read more

I had my food delivered while at work so I think I should give this place another try getting it directly from there as my food was cold and not tasty at all. Fries were not good at all I don't think anyone likes cold fries but outside of them being cold they weren't flavorful. My wrap was okay but seemed skimped out on the chicken. It was more wrap than chicken. I may give the Katy location a try I think it had potential. read more

This is my first time being REALLY disappointed in an order. This salad was $14.50 and there was hardly any "salad". As you can see there are these HUGE falafel balls that take up more of the salad thank anything. The salad lacked luster dressing tasted watered down. I TRIED to eat it considering the costs but after three bites it went in the trash. I saw the reviews after I ordered believing this place deserved a try. This is the first time I wish I paid attention to the reviews Very very disappointed read more

We have only ordered takeout here (doordash) so can't speak on the service or ambiance of the place. We love the shawarma and rice they have, though. Furthermore, they're cheaper than a lot of other Mediterranean places so a great spot to order from! read more

SCAM ARTISTS! These thief's will rob you, their deal was a BOGO that was $20 but instead they charges $40, and also shorted me BADLY on the French fries. Don't EVER give them any money because they are thief's and will insult you when you ask for your money. read more

I'm writing about Abu Omar Halal food truck, in Houston. Me and my companions were attending Anime Matsuri at George R. Brown. We took a break for lunch. Like every year, there's food trucks parked by the convention center. We always like to try something new here for lunch every year. My friend and I chose the Abu Omar Halal food truck this time. The staff are nice, patient and their prices are decent. Their food is cooked fresh. I chose the chicken shawarma with fries. Their shawarma is huge! You don't need a side of fries with this! The chicken shawarma was delicious and my friend loved her rice bowl. Although, their fries were plain. I would love to dine at their restaurant someday. read more

I love the food truck by my house but I truly appreciate the brick and morter. Especially late night when I'm downtown and starving. Great service, amazing food and flavors as always. I got the chicken shwarma and fries as it hits the spot everytime. read more

Found this place walking back one night from conference receptions, and what a find it was! Ended up coming here two nights in a row! The lamb quesadillas are spectacular! Fries are good, baklava is perfect and the service is extremely quick. Would have been five stars, but the second night I got a beef shawarma bowl and the beef was tough. Great flavor but tough. Stick with the lamb and you can't go wrong. read more

Best Shawarma place in town and possibly the best late, late-nite take out in 77002. The panhandlers outside in Main may be a little thick so wear a heavy coat. Have patience with the kitchen staff. This may look like fast-food but it's closer to a scratch kitchen. Chicken is so moist, tender and roasty and the pickles are maybe my favorite in town though the staff is stingy as hell. . I like mine a little more spicey than what comes straight out of the kitchen so I'll add my seasoning accordingly. Awful ambience. 10/10. Would recommend. read more

I have ordered from here twice, once through delivery, and the other for pick up and both times have been great! I ordered their beef shawarma, a side of fries, and the spicy garlic sauce. The food is absolutely delicious! So well-seasoned, hearty, and comforting. I also had great customer service when I went to pick up! They were a little behind because the store was filled with the lunch rush but they were really transparent about the timing and were moving as fast as they could. All the staff was incredibly nice and even threw in a couple sauces for me to try! Would highly recommend and I plan to be a regular here! read more

Worst one ever. Food was soggy and fries were dry. Taste was awful. The one on Almeda is the best!

The service was super quick and just half the sandwich filled me up. The lamb had so much flavor. Next time I'd probably ask for light garlic sauce or have them put it on the side. read more

THE BEST - Seriously. Great authentic food, unreal lamb gyro and the nicest guys working. 10/10 recommend

Chicken Shawarma sandwich is amazing! It has chicken and some yummy sauce! It's a large enough sandwich that I ate in two meals. read more

Abu Omar Halal - Chicken Shawarma Sandwich - Food Trucks Near Me - Houston, Texas

On a Saturday night, I went out with a friend. When we reached Main Street, I was happy to see that in addition to hot dog stands, Main Street also has some late-night food trucks! Abu Omar Halal was one of the two options. I went with a chicken shawarma with no veggies, fries, and a water. The portion size was quite generous. The shawarma was cut in bite-size pieces and there were a lot of fries. The fries were seasoned well. The shawarma, on the other hand, had a different sauce than your typical one. It was white sauce and had more of a mayo consistency. Not bad by any means but they put too much on there. To the point it was oozing out of the sides a bit. Lay off the sauce a bit and it would have been better. Overall, a decent late-night option! read more

This little food truck is a godsend when you're drunk, hungover, or just want restaurant quality food downtown at night without having to pay out the nose for some douchey hipster gentrified foodcourt. The guy who runs this thing is incredibly friendly and helpful. I couldn't decide between gyro meat or chicken shawarma on my rice/salad combo, so he let me get a mix of both, which was fantastic in its own right. Then while I was waiting for my food, a tourist came by taking pictures of the street. I stepped off to the side so as not to accidentally photobomb. Well, the dude running the food truck noticed I seemed to be trying to avoid the guy with the camera, so he stuck his head out the window just to make sure I was okay. I let him know everything was fine, but I definitely appreciate him keeping an eye out for his customers. As for the food - yummy and plentiful. I'll easily have enough left over for lunch tomorrow. I'll be coming back here for sure! read more

Abu Omar Halal - Gyro meat and chicken shawarma over salad and rice. - Food Trucks Near Me - Houston, Texas

had to spin back, too good. stayed open through the hurricane, real ones. open til 3 too.

I love them so much really nice guys and foods Amazing highly recommended. And ambience is really amazing also

The food was really good and we even got free samples :)) definitely coming back here soon

Tried a shawarma in opening day. It tasted good but was smaller than I expected, plus they didn't have any oil so they couldn't make fries or any other fried item. Also, I had to wait for several minutes clearing my throat loudly while the attendant was playing on his phone before I could place my order. Not what I expected on opening day. Definitely not a good first impression. read more

I was hungry and on a severe budget. For $7 flat, they gave me a foot long shawarma gyro that was rich, crisp and tender, and filling. That's what will satisfy every time... Can I get satiated for the right price? With Abu Omar Halal, the answer is Yes! read more
