I honestly cant tell you the names of any of the dishes but I can definitely tell you everything I took a picture of was amazing. My ex picked the dishes. She's buying i just eat it. I ate her leftovers too. read more

Halal Bros - Dinner - Mediterranean Near Me - Austin, Texas

I am updating my review because this food is AMAZING. There isn't better halal in Austin or dare I say, Texas? However, it's not a full 5 stars because I have ordered food here a dozen times, and they almost NEVER get it right. Their hot sauce is hecka hot so if you can't handle incredibly spicy food I recommend getting it on the side to be safe. read more

Oh my goodness!!! Amazing. Came here after getting in from Dallas and a quick workout. We placed an order online and picked up and was so surprised at how heavy our order was lol until we opened it up and realized how generous the portions are. Food tasted fresh and the lamb was not dry. the white and red sauces were a hit as well! Will definitely come back to try the combination plate! read more

Halal Bros - Mediterranean Near Me - Austin, Texas

They served rotten gyro meat - 6/25/2020 Ordered combination over rice to go. I eat here often and always like it. What I got tonight was terrible and hurts my stomach. At first, the chicken tasted kind of off.... then I ate the gyro... tasted like bad meat + a hint of SOAP. I had to wash my tongue to get the taste off (that's a first-ever...). What the heck halal bros... you used to be so good. read more

Love the food from those guys! Whether in DC or Texas, their fare is consistently delicious and as authentic as you can get when you dealing with mass distribution. Keep up the good food and I will keep eating it. read more

Fast and tasty. Almost 4 stars. And absolutely nothing wrong with 3 stars. I'll be back. If you get the meal over rice you could likely split it between 2 people. Came here with a few people for lunch last week and I think we luckily beat the lunch crowd. Most of my friends has their plate over rice and I think from the size of the portion it could have been split. I had the gyro and thought it was very good. Wish it had come with fries. Staff was pretty friendly and efficient. I'll be back. read more

I ordered some food on the website on Thanksgiving day and they were closed although the website said they were open. I went to the restaurant today to pick up the food and they said there was nothing they could do for me. read more

They are my favorite place to eat tbh. Food is always bussing, no complains here. Totally recommend their chicken shawarma over rice can't forget their loaded fries yum! read more

Consistently out of everything. Not sure how you run a restaurant and continue to have half your menu out of stock. I ordered online and didn't find out a few key parts of what I ordered were out of stock. I understand once or twice being out of items but this is the third time it's happened. read more

Halal Guys? Please. Halal Bros is where it's at. When Halal Bros opened near campus, it was just a small little shop dishing up some good food. Now that they're in a larger space at that location, they've also expanded to new locations with one being this Braker location. Thank goodness they did because this location is pretty close to my house. My go-to is combo over rice which is a combination of lamb and chicken over rice. When you mix it all together with the white and red sauce, every bite becomes burst of delicious meaty flavor. I also always ask for extra white and red sauce to go with it. The portions are pretty big and one order usually becomes two meals for me. read more

It's not fancy but the food has very good flavor and is a good sized portion. The white sauce is addictive and the red sauce is hot-hot and gives it a big kick. The place gets busy but they seem to make the food in a timely manner. The fountain has some craft soda as well as regular sodas. We tried fries which served 3 of us and were cooked just right, we had beef kebab with rice which was enough for leftovers, lamb shawarma, beef shawarma and falafel and everything was very tasty. Parking lot is small and it gets very busy so parking can be a challenge. My only complaint was that we came in and most of the tables were dirty with food particles and crumbs maybe, there were only 2 tables with people when we came in but only 2 clean tables one young woman came to dining area and pushed in chairs, separated tables but did not clean them. Before we left. About 45 minutes later, I went and asked for management but this woman told me she was a lead so I mentioned that tables should really be cleaned in between customers and she replied with, "we get really busy and don't always have time to clean them" I mentioned that I had seen some slower times during my meal as well as now and she did send someone to wipe tables after I mentioned that I would be emailing the manager. read more

We pre-ordered for a 6:45pm pick up time with grubhub at 1:19pm and received a doordash order from 1:02pm. After opening the bag at home, we realized we received the wrong order coincidentally under the same. We called Halal Bros and was told they couldn't do anything on their end and we would have to ask for a refund on their website... Wow. We ordered $20+ food and got $10+ worth of food..... read more

Halal Bros - What we got from pick up (after opening at home)... same name, but not ordered from grubhub. Wrong number. Wrong order. Wrong person!! - Mediterranean Near Me - Austin, Texas

Gyro tastes great. They cut the pieces a little thick which I find strange because thin slices are tastier and easier to eat. Lamb kabob wrap was a little dry. Especially for lamb. You really gotta overcook it to make it dry but it was good with some extra white sauce and house spicy sauce. read more

The falafel was good but in general, the food had way too much nutmeg spicing. We were hoping for Mediterranean vibes but definitely way too much nut bag. It overwhelmed the meal. We ordered the chicken Shawarma plate, beef Shawarma plate, falafel plate. The salad was good but the overwhelming flavor of nutmeg killed the rice and meat for us. read more

I'm just going to start by parroting all the other reviews. Compared to the Guadalupe location, parking increased by a multiple of 10 and seating by a multiple of 3. The world looks bright yet again. The only negative difference is that when you're ordering, you're no longer a mere few feet from the grills and the large rotating meat on the spit. If you're not walking out smelling like grease and lamb, did you really go to Halal Bros? The menu and quality of the food is the same as before. I usually get the meat over rice and it's a good portion of carbs, meats, and veggies. Combined with the red and white sauces, it's a fantastic orchestra laid in an aluminum container. Quantity is enormous for the price. Filled to the brim, it's a super filling dinner or can easily be two lunches if you have self control. No skimping on the meats here! read more

This is comfort food for us. Largely healthy if you get it as a salad. But I love my rice! Their lamb shawarma is my favorite and the gyro is really flavorful too. We are regulars here. read more

Last few times I been here, I have always enjoyed the lamb kebab. However today I decided the combination on rice and I'm blown away!!!!!! It's freakin delicious! I love it. No complaints! read more

Halal Bros - Menu board - Mediterranean Near Me - Austin, Texas

The worst guest service that I have ever experienced in my 42 years of life and 18 years of hospitality career. Yesterday (09/24/2021) evening we came to Austin, TX from Houston for a quick family break and went to this restaurant with family for a quick meal. We ordered 4 main course, 3 sides and 3 drinks. When I tried to make a cash payment, the cashier denied to accept any cash but there was no written guest notice. After the card payment we took a table and was waiting for the food. Just out of curiosity I was looking at the invoice and to my utmost surprise I found that two of the items were over charged in compare to published menu price. There was a gentleman on the floor and I informed him the issue. He told me that they have recently changed the price in their system but haven't updated the menu price. I told him that it should be other way around. He said if I want he can give me the refund but if I need to make a complaint, I have do that with the manager. Then I said, can I then see the manager cause what you are doing is not ethical business. He said manager is not there and I can come tomorrow to see him. I said I can't do that. He said then go to online and complaint. He was extremely rude from the beginning as I catch their fraudulent activities. He not for a single minute felt or said sorry about it rather he was showing attitude towards me. Then I said can I then see the floor in-charge. Then he went to the cashier (lady) and then she came with the refund amount in cash. Now if the restaurant doesn't accept cash, then why she offered me cash refund? I told her that it's not about 1 penny or 50 pennies. You can't do that. Most of the customers never look at the invoice cause we look at the menu and believe that the same menu price will be charged. What you are doing is completely unethical business. Just imagine, if you are over charging 50 pennies on each item from 300 customers a day, how much money you are making in a day, in a week, in a month or in a year which are completely unacceptable. You can't do that. She said sorry and offered me the cash refund which I denied. The matter could be ended here. Now the biggest surprise came when after finishing the meal, when we all came out of the restaurant, we were about to get into the car, that guy came out and asked me if I'm a Muslim - which to me has nothing to do with my complaint. Then in front of my family members, he said they don't want us to visit their restaurant any more and better if we go to other locations and they will not allow us to their restaurant any more. What a Surprise! I was speechless. They over charge the customers and if you catch them, they barred you from their restaurant- what an amazing strategy! I have never seen such rude, unprofessional and unmannered employee around the world. So far I have visited 36 counties and this was the most shocking restaurant experience that I ever had. I have worked for Marriott, Starwood and Hilton across the world. My last position was Director of Sales & Marketing in a flagship 5 star property in one of the Asia Pacific location. I was one of the master trainer in guest service, service recovery and guest loyalty. Now I own and run 2 pizza franchise restaurants in Houston, TX. I have no words on what I should say or do about this restaurant. read more

Literally the worst Gyro I have ever had. I don't entirely blame the restaurant, 50% of the terribleness was the Door Dash app. It was my first and last time ordering through Door Dash. I was craving a gyro and on the menu item I ordered it read, "Gyro with lettuce, tomato, cucumber and our white sauce" (see screenshot picture) and when I got to the next screen there was an option for combo, which I took to mean french fries so I clicked it. Finally for a drink I ordered the mango yogurt drink. The food came quickly and the driver left it in the basket outside. All good. But when I opened the container it was meat mixed with chicken, not fries. I was disappointed but willing to take the mix up because the meat was good and I could eat it later. Then I took a big swig of the yogurt drink...which was plain, not mango like I ordered and it was terrible!! Well maybe i can make a smoothie with it later, I thought. I unwrapped my Gyro and took a big bite. The white sauce was really bland, there were no cucumbers at all, and once I swallowed I almost vomited because there was some kind of hot sauce on the meat. I have digestion issues and can't eat hot sauce at all. I tried to take out the pieces with hot sauce which left me with 5 bites of meat, some lettuce covered in the bland white sauce, and only a little naan. About 3/4 of my wrap was inedible. I honestly thought maybe they had delivered the wrong order. I immediately pulled up the Door Dash app and clicked on the review links and chose the option of there being a problem with the food. I was given the option of taking a $9 credit for my next order or clicking on more help. When I clicked on the more help to request either a full refund or a re-delivery of edible food, the app told me it would reply in 3 business days and the option of the credit was no longer there. It wasn't until I went on the restaurant's website that I saw that the description of the wrap included "and hot sauce"....I would never have ordered it if I had seen that on my screen when ordering. So 50% of the problem was the unclear menu on Door Dash (who calls a combo more meat?? A combo is always with fries!) and the fact that I would not be receiving any kind of refund or a credit. The other 50% goes to the restaurant with its bland white sauce (that I refuse to call tzatziki, because it had no cucumber flavor whatsoever), no cucumbers in the wrap, and the incorrect yogurt drink. Plus, who puts hot sauce on gyros??!! Do yourself a favor and try any other gyro place in Austin than this one. read more

Halal Bros - What the menu item looked like that I ordered. - Mediterranean Near Me - Austin, Texas

Halal Bros. on Braker Lane is outstanding. Their food is delicious and it always tastes really fresh. The flavors are all there and the portions are generous. Have yet to taste anything that was not really good. I am so glad to have found them. I could eat their food four nights a week...and sometimes I have! We need more restaurants of this caliber. read more

Love their falafel for vegetarians and their white sauce is like crack!! I prefer to eat there vs takeout though because it does get a bit soggy but it's still good read more

I ordered the Beef Kebab, and it was DELICIOUS. All of the ingredients were very fresh and the sauces added so much flavor. The meat was cooked perfectly and everything was put together very well. Many middle eastern restaurants I've visited have been over priced, skimpy on portions, and much less in quality when compared to Halal Bros. I would absolutely recommend giving them a try, even if you're new to middle eastern food. read more

"Halal Baby." -Its what to say instead of sorry. For all my Austin Halalies (Halal foodies), you know I'm all about addressing things in the moment. I got this big heart, but it causes me a lot of pain sometimes. Nobody likes to be led on, and the last thing we want is to feel stupid because you thought it was serious, something that looked good; if it was really "Halal." I didn't understand the struggle: opting for vegetarian, passing up on food offers, trolling food labels; falling for another haram scam etc. I didn't know Halal. But, I'm trying now. This "American Halal" is extremely new to me. Some of the familiar Middle Eastern & Mediterranean flavors I get and love. Halal bros', ya'll are the MASTERS of "whatever" over rice. You are GIVERS my friends, GIVERS! The marinated beef & lamb definitely aimed to please. So juicy, generous, stunning spices/seasoning, and the fresh taste I've been looking for! That yellow basmati rice, all nestled in there- light and delicious. It ain't yellow cause of the butter right? Remember when butter used to be the enemy? Loved the seasoning and spice, nice compliment. Always happy with the veggies too-fresh/crisp; didn't feel like another pointless shred of lettuce. White sauce=Damn! Red sauce= Hot Damn! Being the least morally righteous person when it comes to food choices I've discovered a newfound appreciation for those who live by virtuous eating on the daily. Highly recommend your potential/new relationship with Halal Bros! If its your first time remember: its nothing to over-analyze, its not a time-waster, you won't feel stupid, and you won't blame yourself about leftovers. [Words of advice] Get there early. That's usually the time hard-working people are at their best. Nothing in the world taste better than incredible morning salutations! read more

I gave this place many tries before coming to yelp. I also voiced my concerns in person unto deaf ears. In short, here is what experienced on a consistent basis before never going back. Slow and inaccurate service. I would watch people who came after me grab their food. It didn't matter if I called ahead, ordered online or in store. When I did get my food it was either outright wrong or gristle sort of cold meat. Overcooked. I got tired of them losing my ticket and making lame excuses. It's top and because I lived an easy walking distance from them. read more

The Kofta kabob was very tasty, grilled ground beef that's been skewered and grilled, came with a large quantity of rice and salad, my wife enjoyed her falafel plate with the same sides, I helped her enjoy it since i'm qualified for that. This was some of the best falafels we've had....for those of you who are real novices when it comes to Med food......think of these as Mediterranean hush puppies....yum! The hummus is very good too, the pita bread is good but just average. You can order a couple entrees and fill up for less than 20 dollars...we will be back for more of these goodies....the young lady that brought our meals had a cool shirt that said hook um halal... read more

We love this place. We've actually never been in, but we order from Favor...And the food is so damn good. $30 gets you a meal for two and a ton of leftovers to pack two more lunches the next day. The flavor is so food! Falafel, Gyros, Tabouleh, hummus! Everything is to die for! 10/10 Highly recommend. read more

Great location. The service is quick, the food is hot, and delicious. Their dolmas taste better than all the dolmas I've tried around town.

This has been a very depressing year. There's not many times I actually really smile. But after every time I eat here and get the falafel plate I just smile for quite a while. No body else's food has ever done that. This food just makes you smile. read more

Today I remembered why it took me over a year to order from here, the food is average and the dish you get is mostly rice. I ordered 3 dishes to share among my family, gyro, chicken and lamb shawarma each with a pita bread and a side of chicken kebab. The bread is an additional charge, ordered a total of 3, but I was greatly disappointed with the quality. I am sure it's store bought, bread was hard and chewy, save yourself some money and don't order the pita bread. The lamb, chicken shawarma and gyro meat were good but not enough chicken. The chicken kebab was too lemony for my taste, I thought it would taste different, had some before, and it tasted good, seems this one was lacking spice, lemon flavor was overpowering. My wife stabbed her mouth with a piece of hard plastic that was in her food, I know it happens, but still kinda ruined her meal because she was afraid to chew freely afterwards. They also put hot sauce on one of the plates when I requested no hot sauce on all 3. Last, I thought their white sauce would be garlicky type like the one I've had at other places, this one tasted like a mix of mayo and ranch, not good. Maybe I'll give them another try and just order the meat over rice, no bread or sauce. read more

Make sure you call ahead to make sure this location is actually open before you place an order online and get charged! Food can be pretty good, but only if someone's actually there to make it. I ordered online via Halal Bros website and received both a text message and email confirmation with ETA for pick-up, well within their business hour. When I arrived, the Halal Bros shop inside the Braker convenience store was closed. Their open sign was not lit, and they were dark with no one inside. I called the West Campus location and they said that was strange, they should be open until 11pm (I was there before 6pm). West Campus location was nice and friendly, but unfortunately, they were a bit further away. They advised me to request a refund with the order app on their website. The ordering app did refund me promptly so at least that's a relief. read more

As busy as this place is during lunch hours they always seem to deliver consistent, fresh, and hot food with a smile! Kudos to the four man and woman team. Get the Combo for $7.99! Comes with chicken and shawarma over rice. Ask for extra red and hot sauce for some extra heat. Portion are big enough for leftovers which makes this place even better! To avoid the lunch rush, I would recommend calling at least 20m ahead. read more

I haven't been here in a minute and it's just as good as I remember. Brings back lots of college nostalgia. The portion size is huge and probably enough for 2-3 meals. The meat was flavorful, veggies fresh, and rice cooked well. Definitely would come back! read more

Oh I love this place, very low key but their food is amazing. We go there at least once a week and eat. The food is so tasty and clean, it doesn't give you a "heavy" feeling after eating. Our go to is the Beef Shawarma Over Rice, Lamb Kebab Wrap, Hummus and Falafel with extra pita. The meats are marinated very well and the spice come thru, the veggies and rice compliments the dish. The hummus is very well made and the Falafel is going to take some time as they fried it fresh every time we order it. Very moist and tasty. The place is very low key in that you order and the order comes out in to-go boxes. You can wish to stay and eat at the tables or just take it home, the food still taste very good. read more

This place used to be amazing, the kabobs and kafta rice plates were amazing as was the hot sauce and white sauce and the service. Now the service is terrible, the cooks overcook the kabobs half the time, and the prices are double what they used to be. I get it, things are getting more expensive, but this place has doubled... Inflation isn't 100%. I ordered a to-go yesterday, waited for 45 minutes as their website by default says it will take, went in and they were a tad busy, but nothing crazy it was 1/3 full....I told them my name 4x, they said it wasn't ready so I waited and watched for my order, the guy asked me for my name again after 10 minutes and then finally found my order which had been sitting on the counter in the same spot since I'd walked in... Very annoying.... Also and probably the only reason I'm even reviewing them is I've also been no farther than running distance from the toilet today... Also something that's never happened to me there, I have an iron gut and am an adventurous foodie. I'm done! Never again... Too bad, I used to eat here 1-2x per week read more

This place hit the spot in terms of providing Mediterranean food that is affordable and delicious. It might seem on the pricier side at $12 or so for a combination plate of beef and chicken shawarma but the serving size is huge and I think most people will be able to get two servings out of it. The meat was just how I liked it: tender, flavorful, and cooked just right. The ratio of rice and meat to salad was fair. Some places have too much salad but this place did a good job of not overdoing it. The white sauce is very tasty and you can get extra of it. It seems to be milk based and it super creamy and has a tangy taste to it. The red sauce is spicy and I like it as well but in more limited quantities. The rice is yellow and tastes better than your typical white rice because it is made with spices. Bought some falafels on the side which were also really good and crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside. Would definitely come again. -mark the reviewer read more

Halal Bros - Combination Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Austin, Texas

I'm a huge fan of Halal Guys so I had to try Halal Bros. I got the combo rice platter. And it was enough for two meals. Lots of rice, meat, and salad veggies. I'm a white sauce lover so I added that liberally in my platter. The red sauce isn't as hot as the one at Halal Guys so it was actually enjoyable. Great service here too, the food was brought to our table and the line went fast to order and check out. read more

Not happy at the recent price hike. $18 for a rice plate is insane. There are other halal places that can replicate HB for cheaper.

I've been wanting to try halal for a long long time. It always looked so good. I ordered the beef shawarma over rice and a mango lassi drink. For some reason I thought the drink would be like a smoothie like how it usually is but it wasn't. I was a little disappointed by the drink because it was around $2.50 and was definitely not worth it. The food was very good. There was the perfect amount of sauce, rice, meat, veggies - everything! My friends got chicken shawarma and lamb shawarma and it tasted pretty similar to mine. There are a lot of spices so I felt very heavy and full afterwards. If I'm ever in austin and starving then I know where to go. read more
