Service was very warm and friendly. Their lamb leg fell off the bone, the brisket was really good and the right balance of meat and fat, and the japapeno sausage was the dark horse for me, and a fave. You can get toum and hummus on the side and the fried okra was perfectly crisply cooked. The barboussa drinks was a dose of nostalgia for me too. Great open space, with shaded patio seating outside. Come for a great hangout with friends. read more

Review: (5/5) At first, I wasn't sure about stopping at Levant BBQ, but I'm so glad I did. The moment I walked in, the smell of BBQ hit me--smoky sausage, brisket, and all the right flavors in the air. That alone let me know I made the right choice. The food did not disappoint. The meat was cooked to perfection--tender, juicy, and literally falling off the bone. Every bite was packed with flavor. On top of that, the staff was incredibly kind. I ended up being a dollar or two short on my tab, and instead of making a big deal about it, they still gave me my food and drink without hesitation. That kind of hospitality is rare, and it definitely made an impression. I'll 100% be back--amazing food and even better people! read more

I came here on grand opening day to get some takeout! I got the loaded baked potato with brisket, and I also picked up a brisket plate with Mac and cheese, creamed corn, and fried okra for my brother. We both really enjoyed the food! Brisket was nice, flavorful and tender. Also, service was great considering how crowded/busy it was. Ambiance was really nice too. I'll definitely be back! read more

Levant BBQ - Beef rib, Texas caviar & fried okra - Mediterranean Near Me - Houston, Texas

Food was not good from the things I selected. Brisket was dry and not tasty, jalapeño cheese beef sausage left a lot to be desired and also dry. One thing that was unforgivable being a Mediterranean restaurant was how bad and sour the hummus tasted. I get the allure that it's a halal bbq spot and there's not that many around but don't just stand on that to make crappy overpriced bbq. Service was good though so that's why I'm giving an extra star. Also just noted that this seems like an influencer hyped restaurant. Shame influencers have destroyed the Houston food scene. read more

Tried this place for the first time with a group of 8 of us. They were super accommodating to our large group and reserved a table for us. The moist brisket and beef rib were SOO tender. Our family loves bbq and we all agreed that the mediterranean flavors in the sides and meats were delicious. Management was so kind to all of us and we will Definitely be back! read more

Amazing soft brisket, fast service, great customer service. From California to Texas, a must try. read more

I walked a mile from my hotel to try out Levant and I will say this: I will walk a mile again. The team here should be really proud of themselves for coming up with halal barbecue because this is a cuisine that is lacking generally and they do a wonderful job here. The brisket was moist and tender and hit the.spot (and I have had some top quality brisket all over the country). The sides were fresh and had great flavor to them. More than anything they put their soul into the service here and what they produce and that is a testament to how much they desire to offer quality. The ambiance and setting is great and there's plenty of seating to go about. Keep it up guys! Will definitely be back! read more

Levant BBQ - 1/2 lbs beef brisket platter with corn and potatoes. - Mediterranean Near Me - Houston, Texas

Wow! I was impressed with the selection of BBQ, and the taste of everything I ordered. I'm looking forward to trying all the different sausage options to compare. I got the wet brisket and jalapeño sausage. Both were amazing. Smoke Master just said he had won Top 10 at Houston Rodeo and I can see why. Sides all looked great, I got the Baked Beans, amazing, little heat. And the cream corn, so much flavor. Table next to use said the Mac n Cheese was wonderful also. DO NOT WAIT TO TRY THIS PLACE OUT. read more

Unfortunately, four member from our party of nine got food poisoning after eating dinner at Levant Saturday night. The bbq was good but unfortunately the tomato salad and side salad that all 4 of us ate had us all vomiting for 24hrs. Please be careful with the sides when eating there. read more

We have found a BBQ place that have the best beef ribs. We are from California Newport Beach so it's super hard when we move to Houston searching for BBQ beef ribs . I believe we have found it. Excellent food and the service was impeccable even though our order got mixed up and it was fix within minutes. Restaurant was very clean. Absolutely coming back. read more

Food is absolutely delish. Love the sides offered and the brisket is amazing. In my next trip I'm trying the loaded fries. read more

Levant BBQ - Brisket with 2 sides (potato salad, quinoa cowboy caviar) - Mediterranean Near Me - Houston, Texas

I gave this place a try. This place is not as bad as all these bad reviews. It's not the BEST tasting bbq in Houston but it's not nasty. It's different if you're looking for a different style of bbq. It's Mediterranean spices and was seasoned well to me. Yea I can pass on the Mac n cheese, it was bland to me but nothing salt & pepper can't fix & the potato salad was just okay. I'd still eat here if I was in the area and had a taste for different tasting bbq. It's a nice spot overall read more

Levant BBQ - Half Chicken & potato salad - Mediterranean Near Me - Houston, Texas

Guys come here! The food was absolutely phenomenal, I am cut tor words to describe the bliss I felt eating , their brisket, ribs, and sweet potatos. Not only the food was great , their custome service was great , they gave us complmentary ice cream and they provided to our needs perfectly. I highly recommend coming here to eat some Texas style brisket. if had to make one complaint , is that it had no television to watch sport games, like American foot ball, but it doesnt really matter anyways. read more

Had a very nice first time here. The team was extremely helpful and attentive. Someone who out the most was Josh. I will be back. They also have a free soft serve machine. read more

I ordered online Thur theonline ordering services( cloverleaf )upon arrival they had no idea I ordered and treated me as if I was lying about ordering, after showering my receipt they made my food. I spent 30 dollars only to get two thin slices of brisket and two thin slices of Turkey with two small sides, the favor/quality of the food is mid and the staff makes the experience feel as if they only acknowledge customers that fit their demographics (middle eastern) with good customer service. I wouldn't recommend this establishment unless you fit their demographics and don't want your money's worth of food. read more

The brisker was devine! It was so soft and everyone in the establishment was so friendly and greeted is with such infectious happiness!! I should have asked but the Pit master I assume, was excellent on the board and gave us heaping servings. Again the brisket I'd like butter. Just tender juicy and delicious. I encourage everyone to visit! I'll definitely be back. Go early because beef ribs always go fast!! Thank you for making our first visit one that will definitely bring us back!! The restaurant is very clean and they bust the tables as soon as the guest leave, I love a clean restaurant with a great patio and beautiful interior!!! Well worth a visit!!! read more

This BBQ place had great reviews so we decided to check it out. We will 100% eat here again. This is a Mediterranean place so no pork. Don't let that detour you. I am not a brisket fan normally but this was amazing. I got the two meat plate with brisket and dark meat chicken. They were some of the best BBQ I have ever had. The potato salad and Cole slaw were good. One of the best additions was the garlic sauce. So yummy! Small wait and staff were super nice. The restaurant is also very nice inside. read more

Significantly better this time. Got a lot of the meat options and they are all delicious. Definitely recommend this spot. I want to come back soon. read more

I seen this on Instagram so I thought to go try it for myself. As I entered I saw a very clear menu on the wall, and I decided to order a little bit of several of the meats. I can tell you this restaurant is clean neat you definitely won't find any hair in the food and the taste of the barbecue is really good It's not an overwhelming recipe. It's a mild smoke and I urge you to try their pomegranate barbecue sauce. The sides were delicious too coleslaw and potato salad so I had a really good experience and I would definitely go back. read more

I don't really review BBQ because I might be Texan but BBQ just really is not my thing. I've been out of the country for a few weeks and when I returned I noticed this place finally opened and it was slam packed EVERYDAY. So I gave in and decided to grab some to go. Yall this brisket blew my mind! Out of the limited times I've had BBQ I can confidently say Levant has changed my mind on BBQ! The brisket literally falls apart and it has the perfect amount of fat. It's not dry and it's perfectly seasoned. I think I'm going to give BBQ a second chance. read more

My family and I tried out Levant today and we're pleasantly surprised by how good all the meat was. We got the Levant Feast which includes brisket, beef rib, turkey, chicken, and sausage. Unfortunately they didn't have sausage on the day we went, but the rest of the meat was so good we didn't mind. The brisket was the star of the show. Up until now, Pinkerton's has been my favorite place to get brisket but Levant has officially replaced them. The beef ribs are better than the ones at Pinkerton. The sides were decent, but nothing to write hime about. We tried the okra, potato salad, beans, cole slaw, and the garden salad. The customer service was great and the free soft serve to finish off the meal was a nice sweet treat. The whole family loved it. Will definitely be back! Side note: The only thing that was a bit strange was that they didn't really have anything for us to eat on and seemed kind of confused when we asked. The food was served on wooden cutting boards but there was nothing for us to actually our individual portions on. We were given the little paper boats that they use for sides when we asked. I would recommend at least having paper plates or butcher paper available for people to eat on read more

The lamb neck is unreal--tender, rich, cooked to absolute perfection. As someone who thinks brisket is usually overrated, theirs was spot-on and full of flavor. The beef rib? Insane. Huge, juicy, and melts in your mouth. Everything is halal, no pork on the menu. But the turkey sausage, packed with Mediterranean spices, more than makes up for it--super flavorful and unique. Every single dish we tried was phenomenal. This place absolutely deserves a spot on your list. Also, got to chat with the pitmaster--genuinely kind and clearly passionate about the craft. read more

Amazing service, great food, you need to try this place out if you like Mediterranean bbq. They treat their customers with class.

It's opening day here and I'm bummed about my experience. The place is super nice inside but the it's better than the food. It's pretty ballsy to plant a new bbq spot around the corner from Roegels on Voss. It looks like the family that owns the place was here but did not give a Texas welcome to its customers. Price: $21 for a quarter pound of dry brisket. That's pretty strong. The cole slaw was almost standard...too much white onion. The Mac and cheese was way too soft and soggy. I could not finish it. There's no brewed tea. Bbq & no tea in Houston? This is definitely a Mediterranean fusion bbq place where's there's no guy working the wood over the fire. Clientele: non-Texans. read more

The best of Mediterranean BBQ in town. So delicious. Ribs fall off the done and other meats are equally tender. We first enjoyed this place on my love's birthday 2024. It was memorable and delicious enough to have for 2025 Thanksgiving meal. Sooooo good. read more

Levant BBQ - Outside of the restaurant. - Mediterranean Near Me - Houston, Texas

Wowzers. This barbecue is the best in town. And their beef is USDA Prime. Really nice ambiance inside.

Ok. They have been open 10 days so will give them a break:). They were out of turkey, sausage and i guess french fries as my buddy tried to order loaded fries and said they were out. I ordered 1 meat platter and to be honest was too expensive as i got half chicken breast and wing w 2 sides for 21.00! What!? Chicken was good and bbq sauce great. The sides i ordered. Beans rice and cheesy corn. Some of the best sides i have had at bbq anywhere!!!! I put the rice into the beans to make a beans and rice combo. So good! I would come back just to try more sides! Also 3.50 for a fountain drink? I wish them well but they have to get things in order for sure read more

Dropped in this afternoon for a quick bite. Must say it's one of the best BBQ that I have ever tasted. We had the brisket and house sausage. Both were incredible. Salad and rice also remarkable. Staff was very friendly, we will definitely come back. read more

The barbecue is very good. We ate there once and tried a lot of different things. The next time we wanted to watch football at home so we brought it home. We had the beef rib, which was outstanding. All the sides are great really like the cucumber salad the ice cream that they give at the end of the meal is great and it was very good very clean. The people are very nice and helpful. Highly recommend. read more

Excellent brisket flavor and variety of sides. Serving sizes were plentiful and staff was open for questions and provided great customer service read more

Service was good very friendly and accommodating. Food was very bland! BBQ was horrible! Don't under the pomegranate flavoring not good at all. Chicken was under cooked, potato was decent and so were the beans. Not a place I would recommend if you are looking for a true BBQ experience. Ambiance was nice. read more

Not impressed at all at the quality of food, the service, or the price. It is extremely expensive compared to the top BBQ restaurants in Houston such as Pappas BBQ, The Pit Room, and others. Additionally they refuse to give you lean meat for the high price they charge. Today they told me they have to weight the meat with all the fat on it and after I pay the high price they charge then they can remove the fat and dump it in the trash. I have never heard anything more ridiculous than that. I took my wife and kids and walked out after they said that. I will continue to eat at Pappas BBQ and The Pit Room to name a few who serve top quality BBQ at a much better pricing than Levant BBQ. Being Halal doesn't mean better and doesn't mean it's worth more. It's the greed of these people that gets me. I give them one star and will never return to this restaurant ever again. read more
