This is a great place to get beef gyros, beef/chicken shawrama, rice, freshly made falafel and pitas...they also make the pitas as they're ordered..so good!The seasoning could more intense, but that's my taste. Alone the food is delicious because of its freshness and quality ingredients. The one exception is the "white sauce"; a common issue with the Greek/Persian/Middle Eastern places in Austin generally. I order my food plain and add my own garlic, cucumber, dill tzatziki at home.Sorry, I couldn't hold back to take pics. Next time, I promise, it disappeared quickly it was so good! I highly recommend the place.I typically order out, but the place is nice; it's a regular deli setting. The staff are great. They're very friendly, nice guys! Just a tip, be prepared with your chosen translator app and set it for Turkish. It will help if you need to ask questions. Some of the guys are taking ESL classes but have to work a lot. The food is so good I'm not surprised....I had a couple convos with them while I was waiting for my food. Like I said, friendly, nice guys. And don't forget the baklava; it's pistachio and it's delicious ?Parking: Parking is available on both sides of the street. Shops compete for available parking, but I usually can find a couple open spots.
Absolutely loved the food here! The staff is incredibly nice and friendly. Highly recommend! Totally worth checking it out for a great meal.

Great place to go for Halal food. Zaki is very great and welcoming. Hands down the best beef shawarma I’ve had in a while. Loads of flavour!

It’s in a good location. But the gyro chicken plate we ordered was not the gyro we ate several other Mediterranean restaurants. They carve the chicken, but here they reheated chicken and served it on a plate. Falafel was sour and clearly not fresh. Sorry for the negative review. Maybe their equipment was broken, I dont know.

Food, freshness & friendliness was served with passion and a story. On the day we tried his food, he was parked by the community pool in the neighborhood of Colorado Crossings.I like to try mediterranean food all the time and they have gyro so had to try it. Glad I did because not only was the food good but had a great convo with the owner as well, sharing with us how he got to this point. We had the beef gyro platter and its a good amount of food. We just ate it there in the parking lot. Wanted to have it fresh! Definitely recommend this food truck. Food is delicious and service is excellent.

The place is very nice, quiet and cozy. They took our order very kindly and immediately served us the food. A very fast service. And the food was delicious. Totally recommended.
Meat was no edible. Could not chew. Small portion. Sauce was ok. Ambiance was not great.

The food’s decent, but for the amount they charge, I would probably look elsewhere.

The restaurant SHISHMAN are truly amazing. Their ingredients are fresh, and the taste and portions are more than sufficient. The sauces are fantastic. They are professional in terms of cleanliness. You don't need to think twice for both catring and individual meals. Just order from SHISHMAN and enjoy. They are friendly. Ordering from SHISHMAN will truly make you happy.
Needed a quick dinner pick up and only chose this place because I've been craving gyro and the reviews seemed to be great. Sadly it was absolutely not .. I honestly don't know if the ppl who left the reviews have had good Mediterranean food .. the beef swarma plate w rice was extremely bland even w the red sauce (just tasted like blended chipotle )and white sauce that tasted like a bad attempt at taziki . The meat sat on just a bed of wilted shredded lettuce Even w trying to fix it at home it was hardly a good meal to say the least.... Not sure if it was just a bad night but it was very disappointing
