    Lamb fries, gyro , and platter
    Maile T.

    Looks a lot better than it taste . The chicken meat was better and juicer than the lamb. The lamb pieces in my bowl were small and on the burnt side, kind of like left over scraps of meat. The platter tasted bland so we added a lot more sauce. Also, the bowls are small. I'd rate 6.5/10 for taste and 5/10 for quantity. Best tasting thing was the plain fries we got on the side.

    Chicken Beef and Lamb Rice Platter
    Dwaneika C.

    I want to say that I ordered online and this has to be one of the best lamb and beef Mediterranean bowls I have ever had. The meat was so tender. The fries were perfectly crisp and the flavors were present. They did forget my fork though, but I am a very innovative lady, and found a gas station on the way and it was delicious. I didn't dine in, so I can't really stay with the service is on the ambience was a small little shop but it was well-maintained.

    If guys mixes rice platter.

    The food was delivered quick - it's very tasty and I would order it again. I wouldn't call it a platter but it's enough food for a hungry person.

    Customer service was lovely but food was bland, fries had more flavor than the chicken and rice bowl.

    Beef and Lamb Rice Platter
    Kathy M.

    I was really disappointed. I was craving lamb over rice and this was the closest thing I could find in downtown. The restaurant is fairly small but I can see it getting packed late at night since there's a lot of bars around. My bf and I ordered the beef and lamb rice platter and a side of the waffle fries. The lamb/beef wasn't seasoned well, it tasted old and was dry. The lettuce and tomatoes didn't taste fresh. The rice was also dry. The red sauce wasn't spicy at all (but it's normally super duper spicy at other places). The only thing I truly enjoyed were the waffle fries. They were crispy and was seasoned well. It had a bit of a spicy kick. Overall, I wouldn't recommend.

    Flalafel Salad w/pita
    Crissy H.

    Falafel Salad I have been anxious to try this place and finally, had a chance to do so. The establishment was very clean, and the cashier was very knowledgeable about the menu. The menu was easy to understand and well made, I wish they had to-go menus, as well. You can order online, but there is a fee attached, I'll pass. My salad: The falafel and pita were dang delicious, however, the lettuce was saturated in water, which made my falafel a bit soggy. I will not get a salad again, but I will definitely try some of the other things on their menu. *This is for the new Euless, location.

    New York City Style Chicken Rice Platter (veggies and sauce on the side)
    Dez V.

    Food was great. Order the chicken dish. I loved the flavor. Everything about this meal was delicious. The veggies were very fresh. I ordered from Uber eats so I'm not sure about the service or ambiance but I'll definitely order again very soon!

    Ask the Community - Big Guy's Chicken & Rice

    Are the salads just the platters but with just salad no rice?

    What does 50/50 rice mean?

    Traditionally the bowls come over rice with a small side of salad in the bowl. 50/50 means you’d like more salad and less rice. An even 50/50 portion :)

    Why don't you have aloo anymore? No more vegetarian options?

    Hello we have been having issues with our aloo supplier being able to keep up with volume and lack of production but we always have veggie options available even if Aloo's are sold out which is the falafel vegan option

    Is the meat halal?

    Yes, it is.

    My husband and I hosted our rehersal dinner on the top floor of The Mayor's House on a Sunday…read moreevening in April, with a final guest count of 75--and it was truly perfect. We initially discovered the restaurant back in January when we dined there and immediately fell in love with the food, service, and atmosphere. That same night, we inquired about hosting a larger event (around 80 guests) and secured our April date with a deposit. From the very beginning, working with Jenna, the manager, was seamless. We communicated though text, which made planning easy and stress-free. Jenna curated a limited menu for our guests featuring popular dishes she personally recommended--chicken, beef, lamb, and vegetarian options--which made ordering simple while still offering great variety. She was also incredibly flexible with seating arrangements and accommodated exactly how I wanted guests placed. One detail I especially appreciated was her willingness to honor special requests--she arranged for a tres leches cake from a local bakery for dessert, which was a huge hit. On the day of the event, Jenna met me an hour early so I could set up extra decorations like flowers, a banner, and place cards. That extra time made a big difference and helped everything feel personal and organized. As guests arrived, we had them go directly to their assigned seats--which I highly recommend for a group this size, as it fills up quickly. The staff immediately began service with starters (hummus, salad, and bread), and they were quick to take both food and drink orders. Everything came out promptly, and the service throughout the evening was incredibly attentive and responsive. Every single guest had something positive to say about their meal and dessert, which says a lot when hosting a group this large. After dinner, the staff cleared tables efficiently, and we were able to enjoy the balcony space--an absolute highlight. It provided the perfect backdrop for photos with family, overlooking the Dallas skyline. At the end of the night, Jenna checked in with us to debrief, mentioning that the assigned seating helped her team provide faster, smoother service--which we definitely noticed. Not only did we have an amazing event, but we also felt like we built a genuine connection with her. She struck the perfect balance of being both professional and personable.

Service was actually really good, everyone was super nice and even the general manager came over to check on us which I didn't expect. We got the burrata first and that was easily one of my favorite things. It's not just a plain burrata, it comes with a bunch of stuff like prosciutto, pistachios, some orange slices, way more going on than I thought. It's also pretty big so you can share it. And it comes with sliced sourdough bread that's grilled with olive oil and that part... so good, I loved it. Then we got the cacio e pepe with shrimp. The pasta tasted fresh, like actually homemade, and we added shrimp, it only came with three but they were huge and cooked perfectly. It also had a little truffle in there which made it even better. We also tried the salmon with quinoa and that one surprised me, the sauce under it was really good and they got the temperature right, I asked for medium and it came out perfect. Cocktails were nice too, they have a lot of options and everything looked really good. Overall I'd go back for sure. It's more about the vibe than just the food. I've heard their brunch is really popular too so I wanna try that next.
