I’m always leery of trying an offshoot of the original Halal Guys from NYC, but I’m really glad I did here! The quality and taste is identical to the famous street carts I’ve ordered from in New York. I got the regular gyro platter which came with lettuce, tomatoes, pita, a bed of savory rice, and a heaping amount of their gyro meat (beef). To make it even better, they lathered it with their creamy white sauce and their spicy red sauce. I also topped it off with complimentary peppers and onions. This was amazing. The lettuce and tomato are just standard cold veggies, but the rice was incredible. It was super savory and had a nice oily coating that made it soft. The meat was also fantastic. It was super juicy and tender, and the amount given was appropriate for the price. Make sure you get extra white sauce because that is what you’ll love the most. It’s the perfect condiment topping to make anything 10x better. Staff were friendly and very quick in making orders. I’ll definitely come back here again when I’m in the Houston area.

Halal Guys is a great place to get your rice, halal meats, falafel, and chips. It’s fast and clean with friendly servers.

Halal guys are very nice wity their food and behavior as well. You can have variety of food in one plate and that's their signature item.

Overall solid option for lunch. I got the regular sized combo rice platter. Good portion size, glad that they have a small and regular size for those who prefer a bit less than the regular size (which is pretty big actually!). The prices are solid at $10 for regular size. Service was fast and nice. The inclusion of pita is great for more variety in the meal. The pita was ok - they reheat it for you in the grill but I think it was already a bit too stale and wasn't heated long enough so tasted a little dry but mostly soft. White sauce was tasty! Red sauce was hella spicy but also flavorful. Quality of the lettuce was mediocre, tomato was solid quality. The yellow basmati rice was nice and soft but lacking in flavor especially compared to other local gyro shops like gyro king and gyro hut. Chicken was flavorful and juicy. Gyro was also tasty and juicy, more traditionally thinly sliced compared to some other local places.

I had The Halal Guys takeout. I ordered the beef gyro sandwich and a side of 2 pc falafel. The falafel was crispy and a bit bland. I don’t think the tahini sauce is a good pair for it. I also felt they were a bit small in portion for the cost (thanks inflation). 1.4/5. The beef gyro sandwich was good and filling. Nothing to write home about. 3.1/5. I personally think The Halal Guys has fallen victim to the fast-food chain label and it’s now difficult to produce above average food, especially when so many smaller shawarma/gyro/platter spots are opening up nearby and competing in the same space. It was the quick and easy service that brought this place to a 3.2/5 overall rating. I would go here again, but out of convenience.

The food is very tasty. You can order platters or sandwiches. Plentiful topping options. The servings are huge, we had leftovers of everything. Very friendly and efficient workers to keep the line moving. Easy walking distance from Texas Children's. The only downside is there's no indoor seating.

Here’s the deal, the food is healthy and tasty. But watch out for that deceptive white sauce, which is very popular because of its taste, but FYI it’s over 300 calories for one packet ? Definitely worth trying and recommend it!
