    Mixed Shawarma Platter
    Neyda V.

    We stopped by this food truck at a gas station after seeing the great reviews, and it did not disappoint! The staff recommended the mix plate (chicken and beef shawarma with rice and salad), and it was sooo good. I got mine with no spice, which I really appreciated -- love that they offer that option. While we waited, they gave us complimentary chickpea falafels with tahini sauce, which were delicious. The portions are huge -- definitely shareable -- but I saved half for lunch the next day and it was just as good. We took it go because they have no seating, it would be better if they did, We'll definitely be back!

    1st time I received it via door dash. The crinkle cut fries were hot and crispy and the wrap was good. They are open 12-12 and a few days later I went again. They did not have the crinkle cut fries and the ones served were not as good as the first. Hope the next time is just as tasty.

    Food is delicious and ready quick! Service was great told him that it was my first time and made me a mixed platter if I'm not mistaken, he put in a little spice and it gives me a small taste of everything and is very good! If you're in a rush and tired of unhealthy fast food give your body a treat with this delicious and healthy food!

    I found this little truck on Yelp. It is almost none existent on Google maps. They are Jordanian. I ordered the beef shawarma, chicken shawarma and some falafel. I am Lebanese so automatically I asked for Arabic bread which they do have. The meat on both sandwiches is tender. This is the most legit shawarma I've gotten in town. I only wish the garlic sauce is stronger. Next time I would order a side of fries and ask them to add some to the chicken shawarma sandwich... this is how it is made traditionally. And extra pickles. This is the only tweaking I would do to say it is 100 percent legit! They are very welcoming though. Little language barrier we ended up speaking in Arabic. I liked the ambiance which made me feel right at home No place to eat.... I suggest eating it right away somewhere in the parking lot so it does not get soggy I will definitely be back even though it is a bit of a drive for me

    A food truck ran by two people. It is nearby the gasoline station. They have two chairs and one table available outside but technically it is a takeout or drive thru like of a food truck. The service was good, the owner (as it appears) helps you to navigate around the menu and give options. Waited probably for 10-20mins for our food to get ready. There are also fee people ahead of us. The food was really good, enjoyed every bite of it. You can taste the real shawarma taste. Had the Mixed Shawarma Plate and the Mix Sandwich Shawarma Arabi which comes with the sides. They are also reasonably priced with how much portion of food you are getting. Will surely go back to this place.

    The food is so good and if you've been to NY you already know . The staff is very friendly. I just wish they opened before 3 pm

    This food truck is located outside of a Chevron. They're open really late. There's a table with 4 chairs outside. There was a lot on the menu and everything is reasonably priced. We ordered 2 mixed shawarma sandwich and it came with fries. We paid $26 for both meals. The meat was lacking in flavor though. I asked for no tomatoes and was still given tomatos unfortunately. The fries were crispy but not seasoned. They gave us a lot of fries. I wouldn't try this place again unfortunately.

    Better late than never I guess. Craving for legitimacy and something nice, then I hit the spot! Fresh, tasty, and satisfactory on the go. Will be back for sure. (Thanks for the free ice cold bottled water OG) (First customer privilege lol)

    Chicken Shawarma Platter  Chicken Shawarma Arabic Style Falafel

    My husband and I have been coming to this place for over a year now. From our first visit, we tried the Potranco mix, falafel, and chicken Arabi style, and we've stuck to this order ever since! The mixed shawarma platter is also very good. The food never disappoints, always delicious, with generous portions that ensure we have leftovers for another meal. We don't eat out often, but when we do, Shawarma Alzaeem is always our top choice!

Zaatar Lebanese Grill is where we go when we don't feel like cooking, or if my mom is out of town. Located in the Silk Road Heritage District this place is serving up delicious Lebanese staples all day long. Grab an ice cold rose tea and some hummus bi lahme, hot pita bread, and a dish of your choice. Just make sure it comes with their homemade thin-sliced fries. They're next level if you like your fries crispy.

Both were tasty and were very similar in taste from our recent visit to Turkey. Lots of flavor going on at the same time and I have developed such a taste for the traditional rice. Light and flaky. I believe the owners are Arabic, but not actually Lebanese. Although we have traveled to the middle east, but not to Lebanon, I cannot say for certain if it is authentic or not. What I can say is the food was delicious and definitely used some of the same spices we are familiar with. The inside dining was for smaller parties of less than 6, and fit our needs on this visit.

The falafel was some of the worst I've had. A dry, over cooked, hockey puck.

The mixed kabob plate...so little food for the price. The chicken kabob was great, the beef not soo much. The rice underneath was bland. Another thing I didn't like was the bag of store brought "bread" they brought us. Don't even know what it's called. Think dry, overcooked, and tough flour tortillas. Saw people order naan, should've got that, if I knew it was an option. All the sauces were spectacular, I will give them that. The service was cold, unenthusiastic, and confusing. Almost felt unwelcome. Ended it with ordering one of the most dry and stale pieces of baklava I've ever had. Like cutting leather. Don't recommend, or would love the people who gave it such a high review to show me different!

I ordered the classic Greek salad. I guess I should have read the ingredients before I trusted this place to make it. It had more Romain lettuce ribs then anything else. I was not expecting any lettuce at all. They need to take the word classic off of it. It was supposed to come with pita bread. It came with those little flat rubbery pieces of tortilla - like pita. I also ordered a spanakopita for us to split. What they served us was a very soggy pastry with almost no filling. Once again, not impressed. There are too many great places to get Greek food in San Antonio. We won't be back to this one.
