    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.

Even though the playground is usually his favorite spot, he didn't hesitate & insisted we go to Kafi for the brisket. That pretty much sums up how my family feels about this place. We've tried plenty of BBQ spots around Texas, but Kafi keeps bringing us back. The brisket is consistently excellent, and you can tell they use the highest-quality ingredients because the flavor really speaks for itself. Everything on the menu is done well, from the Wagyu and sausage to the burnt ends. It's become one of those rare places that the whole family gets excited about, and that's not something I can say about many restaurants

    Kafi BBQ is a Texas style BBQ joint in Irving-Valley Ranch which serves up Halal Wagyu Brisket with…read moreIraqi/Middle Eastern influences. I follow the chef/owner on Instagram (@kafibbq), and the amount of effort and detail he puts into his craft has resulted in multiple return visits for me. This review is for my latest visit. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Kafi BBQ can be found in a shopping strip in Irving-Valley Ranch. Only opened Friday - Sunday, on my most recent Sunday visit around dinner time, Kafi was packed. The patrons were a great mix of families, BBQ lovers, and those looking for high quality Halal meats. Smoke was in the air. 1 Star. Service - The staff is super friendly and nice. Pro Tip - Go for lunch or before 6 before items are sold out. A few items were sold out on my most recent visit (my fault I arrived at 6:45) and the staff weren't aware of what was available, leading to some confusion, but they were so nice it didn't impact my meal. 1 Star. Food - By now, you've probably read or heard about Kafi's Wagyu Brisket. For me, I love following @kafibbq on Instagram so I can see what Salahodeen is cooking up. On this visit, it was the Brisket Sandwich. First off, the house baked bread roll is soft, but firm enough to hold Kafi's famous brisket on a pile of home made cole slaw and pickles. The result was one of the best BBQ sandwiches I've eaten. The bite was soft, smokey, crunchy, and tart (from the pickles). It was a special, and I'm not sure if Kafi will keep this on the menu, but I hope they do. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. It's pricey, but it's worth it. While the brisket is great, I suggest you follow them on Instagram to see what's cooking and plan your visit around the specialty items. 1 Star.

    Burgers & Curries is hands down one of our favorite Indian restaurants--easily top three for us…read more It also happens to be the closest Indian spot to us, but convenience aside, we genuinely love it. The restaurant is locally owned and run by the sweetest family, and you can really feel that care in both the service and the food. The space is small, clean, and welcoming, located right off 114 near the IHOP/Wingstop area. Despite the ongoing construction on 114 (which has been a mess), they've stayed incredibly consistent. The food is always good--like, reliably good--and I honestly have zero complaints. I always order the paneer tikka masala, and it is so, so good every single time. My husband and my boys are obsessed with the chicken biryani and swear it hits every time they order it. If you're looking for a great, family-run Indian restaurant with consistently amazing food, this is absolutely one you should try--and keep coming back to.

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.
