    An amazing option for quick and tasty food around the medical center. Food truck parked in the corner of a gas station. I've ordered their combo lamb and chicken platter multiple times as it's their most popular dish. Packed with flavor and portions are big enough to easily satisfy your stomach. Love their sauce. Spicy sauce is on the mild side. Sides were decent, tried their fries and falafel. Fries had a nice seasoning. Overall it's a convenient spot for quick and tasty food!

    Pulled up to Gyro King around 9pm Saturday night and it was moderately busy. Heads up - this is a food truck and no outdoor seating areas. Ordered the Chicken Gyro, Combo Gyro, Fries, and a side of Falafel. The food took about 10 minutes and came out hot! Overall, it was a good meal. The Chicken Gyro was lacking a bit of meat but the Combo Gyro was loaded. Both were solid options, veggies were fresh and the sauces were excellent. Fries were standard and paired well with the sauces. The falafel was not my favorite - very oily. Good quality and portions - give it a try if you're nearby!

    I saw some specs of hair inside the top of the box and thought nothing. Maybe it was ours or something stuck to box. But then saw this nasty pistachio in this. I'm disgusted by the hygiene here. Unsure if I'll come back. How does something like this even end in the food?? Cucumber was so bitter too.

    I've been getting take out here for the past 5 years. The food is always excellent and I appreciate their location close to the medical center. I always like to order ahead of time but it's usually less than a 10 min late if I order onsite. The employees are always so nice. I like to get the combo (lamb & chicken) over rice with white & red sauce & sometimes an order of crinkle fries which are on the softer side (my fav style). I like how it comes with a side salad. I like to get extra side of white sauce for my fries. Parking usually isn't an issue since it is located in a Chevron gas station lot. The food truck looks like it got an upgraded look too!

    Hi! How do I book indoor or outdoor reservations?

    the 2424 old spanish trail location is a food truck. but you can find all their locations and reservation/catering info at houstongyroking dot com

    When did the prices change? Today the guy said lamb over rice was $9.74 (cash) when for years it's been $8. I pointed to the menu that said $8 and asked him when it changed. He said 6mo ago. I've been within the last 6mo and paid $8...just curious.

    I’m sorry we have changed our prices since we upgraded to a school bus! We do not compromise on quality and since the meat market has increased we have no choice but too . We hope you understand!

    Is it halal?

    says it on the truck

    Does the white sauce come drizzled on the platter or on the side?

    They drizzle it on the rice itself and they also give have extra white sauce in a small to go for 50 cents.

But then I learned about the mac and cheese... And saw that there is an option to add brisket to it. Done deal. And getting a pint was the perfect amount because I was nice and full after. The way the place is laid out, you go in, hop in line, and then claim a table after paying. A science specifically says not to hold the table before paying because it's unfair... First time I have seen a sign like that, but I get it. Honestly I was expecting just a sprinkle of brisket on top of the mac, but it was a hefty amount, and WOW WOW was it good! I added both of the homemade sauces to my food so I could taste the differences. The kick was nice, but I really did love the sweeter one. The sausage was good too, but I wish I got the jalapeno cheese one. I had opted not to since I already had so much mac and cheese. As if the barbecue wasn't good enough, they had a bar with a really friendly bartender who is eager to give city recommendations. It was thursday, and they had tequila deals, including some very strong $6 margaritas. We only did one round, and that was all we needed. We were also able to watch the World Cup game there. It was a total vibe and I know I would go back whenever I visit again. Geez, what is the other BBQ like in the city?!

When we got there, they were already sold out of sausage. After we ordered, they ran out of ribs and brisket and half the line that was waiting left. It was really tasty. I chose the pulled pork sandwich and it was juicy and tender. A definite recommend for this place. If you are from our of town, take an Uber, there is little to no parking.

There…read morewere three of us, and we each ordered a plate with a choice of one or two meats, two sides, and a few extras. We tried the turkey, brisket, and jalapeño sausage, and every one of them was delicious. The brisket was especially impressive--moist, incredibly tender, and so soft you didn't even need a knife to cut it. The sides were very good, but the meats were definitely the highlight of the meal. One thing we really appreciated was the toppings bar, which included pickles, onions, pickled onions, jalapeños, and two different barbecue sauces so you could customize each bite. They even had a mini soft-serve ice cream machine for a little dessert after your meal, which was a nice touch. They also offer family meal options, making it a great choice for larger groups. The restaurant was clean, had plenty of seating, and the staff was friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. If you're looking for excellent halal barbecue in the Houston area, Levant is definitely worth a visit!

The kitchen line has lots of workers happy to help with questions and let you see/try anything you are not sure about as they have some non-traditional options for a BBQ place. Having said that, all the food options work so well together. I got brisket and chicken. Chicken was fine but I'd skip it and go brisket all the way. It was so tender and juicy. They have several sauce options. You can't go wrong with any. They were in the middle of construction/expansion but there are still lots of seating options in or outside. I would definitely go back here instead a typical BBQ place. The flavors just hit so well together. And the Mediterranean style is clearly a healthier option. Do not miss out if you're on weathermen near the galleria!

The cocktails are unique, beautifully presented, and well balanced. We started with the paani puri, which was also presented beautifully. It comes with five different fillings, making it a fun and interactive dish, although we had quite a bit of filling left over after finishing the shells. The crudo was a refreshing way to begin the meal, while the shrimp added a nice savoury contrast. The highlight, however, was definitely the butter chicken experience. I would come back for this dish alone. The chicken was cooked perfectly, and the sauce was incredibly rich and delicious, especially when paired with the naan. I honestly haven't had a better butter chicken since. Overall, Musaafer delivers a memorable experience through its atmosphere, presentation, and standout dishes.

I tried to give the restaurant a chance to make things right by calling them. Instead of addressing my concerns, I was told they were busy and to call back in a few hours. That was frustrating, especially after spending $40 on a meal and an appetizer. Overall, the small portions, poor quality steak, incorrect order, and lack of immediate customer service made this one of the worst dining experiences I've had. Unfortunately, I won't be returning, and I can't recommend this restaurant based on my experience.

This time I called in an order for tallarines saltados and two whole chickens for my family. They told me it would be ready in an hour, which was fine. When I arrived to pick it up, the owner handed me the food and casually said he replaced my tallarines with lomo saltado -- without asking me first. He said it was "a better choice" and that they were out of tallarines. I told him clearly that I did not want lomo saltado, but he kept insisting, so I just took it to avoid arguing. When we got home, the real problem started -- both chickens were undercooked, tough, and hard to chew. It was so bad that I told my kids and family not to eat any of it, and I ended up throwing everything in the trash. I paid good money for this meal, and we didn't get to eat at all.

This is a nicely sized spot next to the Jusgo plaza in Houston Chinatown, so plenty of parking and also food options. It's tucked in a corner but should not be written off. Its a pretty casual sitdown restaurant and we were welcomed and sat pretty quickly on a Saturday around 8:30PM. We were provided menus and started ordering everything that sounded good (within reason for 2, sorta). We ended up getting the Uyghur polo with lamb shank, Uyghur goshnaan, korma chop, garlic cucumbers, mint tea, and a yogurt for dessert. This was more than enough food for 2 but I wanted to try a bunch and this is me holding back. The Uyghur goshnaan was very crispy and the filling was flavorful and juicy, good lamb flavor and nice spices. The Uyghur polo with lamb shank was great and the pilaf had a nice sweetness with raisins that cut through some of the fatty richness of the lamb. The korma chop was also super flavorful with a nice savory sauce and noodled with an excellent texture, very QQ. I don't usually order cucumbers at Asian restaurants cause I can make a cucumber salad pretty easily at home but the one here was very good. Excellent refreshing crunch and garlic flavor to go with all the other dishes. The mint tea was also nice to wash down the mountains of food I was inhaling. I also enjoyed the yogurt, it's a thicker yogurt like a Greek yogurt and topped with honey and raisins. Again, a nice sweet/tart treat that didn't feel too heavy after everything else. I definitely need to come back as I didn't even get my big plate chicken but it'll be hard to choose between all the options. I def recommend this spot, esp if you like lamb as all the dishes we had were excellent and priced fairly for the portion and current economic situation.
