Al-Demashqy

I've probably eaten about 30 or more Mediterranean restaurants here in Austin I consistently eat at this one For a while. Very authentic plenty of food They got my five star ratings A thankfull Customer

I ate here over 2 years ago. The food was different than the usual shawarma/gyro wraps and it was top notch. What really set them aside was their bread.I've come back here over the years and always found them closed and could never figure out their hours. I was shopping in the area today and saw they were open and had to get an order in while I could!From the menu, I ordered a chicken shawarma wrap and beef/lamb shawarma wrap. I also ordered some fries for the kiddo. Both the wraps were excellent. The chicken was like a kati-roll. The bread felt like a hand made roti and was soft and crunchy at the same time. The beef/lamb wrap had a different type of bread and it was so soft and chewy. They were both really good.The fries were freshly made and did the job. I hope I get the chance to try some of the other items on the menu soon.

I came around 8:30pm on a Friday night, and it wasn't too pack. Based on the menu picture, I ordered the kebab, and the guy told me that the meat was a mix of lamb and beef. I also ordered the tikka, and he told me that the meat is chicken. When I got the food, it didn't look like the picture in the menu. The tikka was delicious. It came as a plate full of chicken even under the tomato and rice. It had salad, hummus, and pita bread included. The hummus was smooth and had a more charred taste to it. The salad was sour and complimented the chicken. I would get it again since it could actually feed two people. The kebab looked more like a large empanada than what I was expecting. It was good too with juicy meat and tomato inside and cost $10. In my opinion, the tikka was more worth it and cost around $16. There are some tables to sit outside. I also wanted to try the okra, but it was sold out.

Really good service and tasty food anytime we go! Definitely better than other options.

Stop by here for AUTHENTIC chicken shwarma, I love the gyros you get all these other places and they're amazing in their own right, but this gives you the actual shwarma you get in the gulf and for that I'm grateful. We also got a box of falafel which were delicious.

I was in the mood for lamb shank and this place just happened to be on the delivery apps. What's even better is you get a side of the sauce the shank was cooked in (there are only a few places that do this) and a bed of rice. The shank was everything I wanted and it fell off the bone. It would've been nice if it came with a side salad of vegetables like other places. I also got a side of hummus. The hummus was creamy and the soft pillowy bread that it came with was perfect for dipping. Since I got this delivered there was a slight mark up which is expected and looking at the pick up prices you'll save a few dollars if you pick it up yourself.

Super tasty! Very authentic. Brought my friend who had never had Iraqi food before. She loved it! I knew she would!We ordered the Kubba, Baba Ghanouj, chicken shawarma sandwiches on samoon bread, lentil soup, and traditional tea.It was all amazing. And the employees were super nice and welcoming.I'll definitely be back when I come to town!!

Place is always delicious. It is a food truck in the plaza with the Valero. From the outside, it doesn't look like much. My favorite thing there is the Lamb-Beef Shawarma Sandwich. I'm not a fan of gyro but for the sandwich they use real meat. Has the consistency of tender pulled pork. (but it's lamb and beef). As of 2/15/23, it put my pack about 10$. Not bad!

Updating my review, sadly taking it down from 5 to 3 stars. One thing I loved from this place: the incredible Iraqi pita. Unfortunately, last time I was there one of the things I ordered was a side of hummus. The hummus was good, but, instead of pita bread I got a large flour tortilla! This threw me off by a lot but I'm not one to be deterred from one bad experience as it happens to anyone. Plus, the falafel I also ordered was pretty darn good.Today I ordered the hummus beef. This was a glorious giant dish. Today, not only was the portion small and the amount of actual beef smaller, it came with a tiny salad and hummus as sides. Yes, hummus with hummus as a side dish. But the real problem was that instead of pita bread, they gave me another large flour tortilla!I don't know if the pita supply chain has dried up or inflation has made pita bread very expensive. But you cannot serve hummus with a tortilla. It defeats the whole purpose.

Well that was a delicious surprise!!!!! My favorite place for falafel and hummus closed early tonight so I came here and got a plate from Al-Demashqy and it was fricking awesome! My daughter and I made wraps from one falafel plate... she got the big squishy roll and I used the giant tortilla things and we loaded them with falafel, hummus and all the good stuff they included plus some garlic sauce they threw in. YummY!!! Wish I had pictures but it all disappeared before I could think about any of that! Lol. Can't wait to go back and try some other things from this super food trailer! Open till midnight! You gotta go!
