“ Amazing Shawarma & Great Prices! Big Bites is hands down one of the best spots for shawarma in Houston! My husband went to pick up our order and asked for their best dishes, and everything was absolutely delicious. The flavors were incredible, the portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable. You can really tell they use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The staff was also super friendly and helpful in recommending what to try. If you’re looking for authentic, flavorful Mediterranean food, this is the place to go! We’ll definitely be back for more. ”
“ Finally was able to try Big Bite and so glad I did. I ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and a gyro. Both were very good with lots of meat and the classic flavors you are looking for. Meat was tender, juicy and not over salted. Sauces were all great and the chili sauce had a nice little kick. Luckily, the owner showed up while I was there because he told me that the ‘over rice’ things are what they are know for. He hooked me up with a sample that blew me away with that flavor packed rice. That is the way to go. Excellent!! You don’t have to be out at the bars to stop by and grab some grub. So make a stop! ”
“ Honestly amazing. I have had this on my list to try for a long time and now I’m so upset I waited. I got the gyro sandwich plate with the fries and hummus. Fries and hummus feel very very food service and left something to be desired, but the sandwich will have me coming back time and time again. Genuinely so good and it wasn’t even drunk food at the time haha. Can’t wait to go back and try other meats. ”
“ Photos don't do it justice, this is by far the tastiest gyro platter I've had in Houston. Had a bite of my friend's shawarma and it was also very good. Plus: The owner is a very amiable person and keeps us coming back!! ”
“ It was amazing! The gyro is very good, the rice is perfect. Perfect amount of sauce and super flavorful!! I’m going to go get more. And also my favorite person who works there is Hadi ( I don’t think I spelled it right) lol. It’s wonderful and friendly service!!! ”
“ Next-Level Shawarma! Best shawarma in town — juicy, flavorful, and always fresh. Perfect balance of spices and killer sauces. Big respect to the owner for keeping it real. A must-try! ”
“ Came all the way from Baltimore, Maryland, and Big Bite was the first spot we tried at 1am and wow, what an experience! The food was absolute perfection. The shawarma was packed with flavor, cooked just right, and seriously hit the spot. Not only was the food incredible, but the service was great too—friendly, quick, and welcoming. The quality of everything was top-notch, and I’d definitely come back if I ever visit Houston again. Highly recommend this food truck for anyone craving delicious, well-made food! ”
“ Great Schwarma in a food truck. Owner was super nice and kindly gave me my food. Really enjoyed the food and the accompanying sauces. I do wish it had a bit more seasoning but aside from that I would be happy to eat here again. ”
