I lived in Dallas previously and came here to see friends. Before heading back down to South Texas I stopped by to get Big Guy's to go. I have never had a bad experience with them. The food is always good! They are always busy working! Although they are busy , that doesn't keep the staff from being welcoming, respectful and helpful. As you know the parking for this location is kind of tough, but it is to be expected when in a downtown city. There is parking (a parking lot) behind the building. Just take the little alley road on the left before the shop on the left. Or even across the street there is a small lot. The ambiance is small, a few tables. Sometimes there are people sitting and eating but it is mostly a lot of to go orders. You will see a lot of to go people parking their car really quick to hop out and get their food. I highly recommend Big Guy's to everyone. read more

Big Guy's Chicken & Rice - Mediterranean Near Me - Dallas, Texas

The food was really great! I had the Lamb and Beef gyro... OMG! You get a good serving of food whether it's a gyro or salad! The place served with speed! Good customer service! Try it and you will come back for more! read more

i was coming from djing a show & one of my homies sent me a text about hitting up big guy's before the event was done. i was so hungry that when i first saw the name of the spot, i thought they specialized in fried rice so i was down. when we got there, i saw it was mediterranean food & had rice bowls, even better! after studying the menu for some time, i went with the ny style chicken platter. plenty of rice, plenty of lettuce (which was leafy... major bonus), more than enough chicken, all around goodness. the chicken is marinated overnight along with being seasoned with their signature spices. the white & red sauces were really really good, just the right amount. their signature seasoned rice reminded me of pilaf, which is my favorite. we got there just in time because people started falling in (this was the saturday of ou/tx weekend btw) a little after midnight. the wait on the food didn't take long, very efficient the time i was there because the wait wasn't long for anyone who decided to place an order. i'd come back again whenever i'm in the deep ellum area, i had my eyes on the aloo, beef/lamb gyro (platter) & falafels. the person who took my order was really nice. read more

Blown away, those are my first words to put in this review. The mixed rice platter was so good, and I'm thrilled I found a spot that serves lamb and it's actually made well. I like that! I got to have my meal, be with my wife, and just have a great time. No complaints, just stuff to appreciate! Service was also good, great job! read more

Parked behind the building to quickly pick up some food and the lot was charging $20. I didn't pay since I was only there to pick up food (25 minutes), but I still got hit with a scammy $95 ticket from the parking company I know it's not the restaurant's fault, but this whole situation made the experience way worse. The food itself was only about 3 stars for me, I got the mixed bowl with some fries (very bland and hard), maybe I just ordered the wrong thing. Either way, it definitely wasn't worth all the hassle read more

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. read more

Big Guy's Chicken & Rice - Lamb fries, gyro , and platter - Mediterranean Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Bf ordered via Uber Eats and dont think we will order again. The portions are very small for the price we paid. We ordered the Combo Platter and Lamb/Beef Platter. The platters were $14.50 each and does not come with any pita bread. The one star is solely for the beef/lamb Beef/Lamb Platter - The meats were okay, they were flavorful but at the same time pretty salty. the rice was disappointing, had no flavor. I requested the sauces to be on the side and never received it (but hindsight, good that i didnt get the sauce) Combo Platter - bf ordered this with the white sauce on top. The chicken was horrible, super dry no flavor. White sauce? tasted more like ranch. scooped out whatever sauce we had to avoid eating it. Beef/Lamb and rice were the same as the previous item. Disappointing and would not order again. Maybe the bad experience comes from uber eats? not sure. read more

Me and my friends came here after a long night and were overly satisfied with the food and atmosphere!

Great dive spot with quick service. The gyro bowl and hummus were great. Perfect spot for a quick lunch

We ordered from here for a work luncheon and it was delicious. The portions were great.

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. read more

Big Guy's Chicken & Rice - If guys mixes rice platter. - Mediterranean Near Me - Dallas, Texas

First time here I tried the gyro sandwich, great!!! Second time here I had the chicken and rice bowl, AMAZING!!! Definitely one of my go to spots now read more

Solid spot for late night food, although it can definitely get hectic especially on the weekends! Went with the Big Guys Mixed bowl, and after a night a drinking, hits the spot. Large portions, lots of protein. Solid gyro and the marinated was good although some pieces are a bit dry. The sauces are great, but if you are expecting the crazy level of spiciness from the red sauce like in NY, gonna be disappointed. Much more mild here and creamier, which works really well with the seasoned rice. Had a bite of my friend's Aloo, which is this fried seasoned mashed potato and wow it is good. In fact I liked it so much, I went back and got my own. I didn't finish the original bowl but that aloo was worth it. Not a large space inside for dining in, which makes sense since most had their order as take-out! read more

Ordered take out and food was amazing. Tried the combination rice plate and reminded me of NY food truck chicken and rice. Love this place and will be back. read more

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

Big Guy's Chicken & Rice - Mediterranean Near Me - Dallas, Texas

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. read more

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. read more

Perfect dinner option for a cold night when I wanted something warm and comforting. The chicken and rice plate with extra white sauce hit the spot and left me with enough leftovers for another meal. Perfect platter with a side of lettuce and tomatoes next to yellow rice overlaid with seasoned shredded chicken blanketed with soft pita. Even better, they are open late and have delivery options. read more

Did a takeout of this place through Door Dash. For the amount we paid I was pretty disappointed by the portion size.

I enjoy the food here, I order often because they are fast and fresh. Portions are a decent size.

The food was okay, my friend and I went on a cold day. The portions/quality to me were not worth $13. I got something with beef and lamb and it was just so so read more

I'll bump the 4 star food review to 5 stars overall because the service was really good even past 1am and the food was fresh, and they were open serving quality food. Portions are a little smaller than I would expect, but it was good enough to take off the edge. Similar to Halal Guys, but much better in my opinion. The restaurant was clean, even late night. I appreciate that they took pride in their food, quality, service, and cleanliness even on the super late night on a Friday. Found them on yelp and they delivered. read more

great taste and flavour from the aroma to the well prepared spices. The service was excellent , very polite and clean Ambiance was well organized people and friendly towards customers read more

I wanted a gyro, but then decided to get a beef and lamb rice platter with an Aloo patty. Yum! The meat was tender and flavorful. You get a lot of food in my opinion. I had enough leftover for a snack the next day. It was my first time eating there, so I didn't know that it automatically came with the red sauce which was kind of spicy (I'm a lightweight). I was sure to say I wanted white sauce with extra white sauce. I thought it was like Halal Guys where they only put the sauce you ask for. I also think the guy answering the phone could be a tad more pleasant. I will return. read more

This was such a disappointment. We couldn't even eat it, we threw it away. Halal guys is better

Decided to stop by Bad Guy randomly for lunch and did not regret it. The service was great and quick. We got our food pretty quickly and the guy behind the counter was quick and to the point (which I love). The interior isn't anything to write home about but the food was a different story. I had the NYC Chicken Platter and it was so dang good. It was flavorful with a great kick of heat. Get some pita on the side , it's so worth it. read more

Food was delicious. I'm not from the area, but came to visit Dallas for my birthday and wasn't sure what I wanted to eat. Found this place randomly and decided to try it. The food was so amazing, probably the best chicken and rice I've had in a very long time. read more

This location stays open till 4am. I'm sure it probably tastes really good at the end of a drunken night. The chicken and gyro platter was ok. The Nutella crepe like thing is magical (eat it while hot). Would recommend after a drunken bar night? Yes. I would pick the Halal Guys over this easily. read more

This is the best take out Mediterranean place in Dallas. The food is always consistently fresh and seasoned well even if you order really late at night. We always order the mixed rice platter with the chicken and gyro meat (lamb) which is enough food to satisfy a football player appetite like mine or can be shared between two light eaters. The hummus and pita bread are good side options. It's guaranteed that my family and friends will order delivery here at least once a week. If they opened up more locations around DFW with a drive thru and marketed more it would lines like Chick fil a at lunch time. Don't miss out, this place is at Fat Kid at Heart approved! read more

This was quite the hidden gem in deep ellum. The food was Mediterranean style. The food was good but if you can't handle spicy food you might wanna pass. Everything on the menu seems to be spicy. My husband loved it, but my heartburn couldn't take it. I wish they had another option for there chicken that was less spicy and it would definitely be 5 stars! read more

Best late night food I've ever had! Had no idea what I wanted. Said I needed beef, lamb, rice and jalapeños and they made it happen. They were very kind and patient. The spicy sauce was phenomenal and I was absolutely blown away by how good this food was! It seems unassuming but I'm telling you this food was bangin! read more

The falafel wraps here are incredible! No notes. Ok one note: Flavors are perfectly balanced but for $13, it's a pretty small wrap! read more

Food was okay, probably won't come back. I ordered the NYC chicken rice platter, I wouldn't call it a platter though because it was just rice and chicken with shredded lettuce and tomatoes in a bowl. It lacked flavor so I had to pour a bunch of sauce on it, I also added falafel. The aloo was pretty good, it was my first time having it. Their menu is small, you have the option to pick from wraps, rice platters, or salads. Overall, not your typical authentic Mediterranean place. read more
