    Beef with veggies, olives, and bread
    Bradly P.

    The Halal Guys are located in Southlake, TX serving quality Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and halal food in a quick, tasty, and fun environment that is great for the whole family! I came by during the week for lunch and was promptly greeted by the staff with a warm welcome. As I browsed the menu screens I went ahead and chose the regular beef gyro platter over the chicken, falafel, and combo. The ordering process was quite easy as to where you order from the serving line and watch the staff make the magic happen beneath your eyes! She generously portioned my rice inside the platter as well as a hefty scoop of gyro beef. I went ahead and added lettuce, tomatoes, and olives. They also have other condiment choices to pick from as well such as green bell peppers, chopped onions, and jalapeños to name a few. I was also given pita bread and asked if I would like white sauce along with red sauce. As she pulled the white sauce bottle out, she perfectly laced up my dish while telling me to let her know when I'm satisfied. As for the red sauce which is spicy, she asked how many lines I would like, and I went ahead and told her four. I went ahead and dined in where there was plenty of tables and chairs for me to sit at. Inside was very nice and clean with a modern twist to it. They had art pictures up of the first Halal Guys cart in NYC along with a soft drink machine. As I sat down and admired the beauty of the dish my stomach slowly started to growl, and I instantly knew that it was GO TIME! The dish was piping hot with steam releasing above the rice and gyro beef. Everything was seasoned to perfection and tasted amazing pairing the hot rice and beef to the cold crisp shredded lettuce and sweet tomatoes. The olives gave a nice tangy twist to it while the creamy white sauce mingled the dish together while getting the spice from the red sauce. The pita bread was and outstanding side that complimented the dish very well and I found myself using it as a spoon to scoop up all the tastiness from the dish. Overall, I really enjoyed coming here to get a fast and healthy meal. The customer service was on point while the food tasted phenomenal! I can't wait to come back next time and maybe try the combo sandwich and baklava cheesecake.

    Amazing food, excellent service, clean restaurant and bathrooms. Closest example of traditional middle eastern shawarma in the DFW area.

    They spend more on the packaging than the food quality. The meat is mushy and the tahini sauce little more than watered down sour cream.

They have some tea and coffee options to end your meal. The desserts consist of baklava or rice pudding etc Now coming to what doesn't work. The hygiene is a huge concern. I saw a guest put their bare hands in the pita basket, pick a pita and then put it back in the basket with others. The buffet area is not commonly cleaned with food bits everywhere. Some customers were touching things and cross contaminating the main dishes. I know it's not the same with the Plano location so I hope manager of this location pays attention to their patrons and ensure basic hygiene standards are followed. I was overwhelming grossed out from it and don't think will ever be back to this location. Ambiance is loud as well with kids screaming and running all around the restaurant, so overall it's a pass for me.

It's not exactly close to me, but the menu convinced us to give it a try. My husband went with the buffet and enjoyed the variety -- hummus, gyro, salad, and pita bread -- and felt the price was a great value for what was offered. I ordered the pastitsio. It wasn't quite the same as the versions I've had in Chicago, where I've enjoyed both homemade and restaurant-made versions. This one was still enjoyable, but not as flavorful as I remembered. The béchamel sauce was creamy, though I felt it needed a bit more seasoning, and the tomato sauce leaned a little too soupy for my taste. I took the moussaka to go. It had a very similar flavor profile to the pastitsio, but instead of pasta, it featured layers of eggplant and ground beef. It was comforting and hearty, though the flavors felt a bit repetitive between the two dishes. The cheese bread that came with both the pastitsio and moussaka was really good -- warm, soft, and a great pairing with the meal. Service was fantastic -- friendly and attentive -- and the space, while small, had a cozy, homey feel. Overall, I'm glad I finally got my pastitsio fix, and it was a pleasant experience.

Unfortunately, I didn't like the taste, it was nothing special and was just okay. I ordered their most popular item which is Baghaleh Polo ba Mahicheh (Lima Bean & Dill rice and Lamb Shank). Lamb shank was tendered and easy to eat but had no taste. Tasted like I was just eating a boiled meat. Rice was also nothing special. I have ate Persian food at other places and just the taste of rice is always to die for. Unfortunately, I didn't taste the same here and it was just a simple boiled rice with bean and dill. Customer service was great and had no issues with it. Restaurant is old, aged, and very run down. They don't even have proper restaurant menu and have bunch of random old photos on loose papers and some on the wall. It doesn't look owner (old) has any intentions to renovate/update. It was also very hard to locate from outside as there is a very small hidden restaurant sign and you will easily miss it if going for the first time. Very limited free parking next door. From outside restaurant looks like it is inside a house with overgrown front yard with weed and others. I guess owner is just happy with as-is setup and income :) Not sure if I will go again or not, but you can definitely try your luck with other food items.
