Food is tasty and a great value, especially with all these politicians screwing up our way of life. Staff were friendly and patient, even after a long day of work. Ordered lamb and chicken over rice and two lamb gyros for under $40 w tax. Where can you find a better deal? This is my second visit in two weeks. Worth the drive. read more

Halal Gyro Express - Chicken and Lamb Mix over Rice. Falafel over Rice - Mediterranean Near Me - San Jose, California

Welcome to Halal Gyro Express, the restaurant that makes big promises, then under-delivers. HGE is close to my new(ish) job. Seeing that they offered falafel, I decided to check them out a couple times for lunch, ordering falafel in the two forms featured on the menu: -- Falafel over rice. ($11) Despite the 6 falafel balls clearly shown on the photo menu, I received only 4 balls. Unlike other place with similar dishes, no hummus was included. There was a small, lackluster salad (zero dressing) and an extra large pile of mediocre rice. (Perhaps they were trying to make up for the missing falafel?). A small triangle of pita on the side was store-bought and dry (a day old?) As for the falafel itself, it was fried-to-order and actually pretty good (7/10 on falafel scale). A damn shame, since this dish was a ripoff. (2*) -- Falafel Gyro ($9). My sandwich was very light, so I peeked inside to see what was what. Despite the 3 falafel balls clearly shown on the photo menu, I received only 2 balls. (I sense a theme here). Too bad again, cuz the quality wasn't half bad - decent, fresh falafel again. And this time the pita was better; it even looked homemade. But it was mostly filler inside; I felt like I was eating a lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickle sandwich...with just a dash of falafel. Another ripoff. (2*). A few hours later I needed a snack. I'm amazed Halal Gyro Express enjoys a 4-star rating, and after reading other reviews, I see I am not alone in this opinion. I also notice plenty of 5-star reviews from yelpers with just a handful of reviews to their name. So it seems the "friends and family" plan is in full swing here. As for myself, after being fooled twice I don't plan on returning. read more

Ordered take-out from here, I called in and it was easy to place an order & they give a time estimate of when it'll be ready. I ordered the chicken & lamb over rice and would probably rate it a 3.5-3.75/5 stars. I thought the food was good, not great but very inexpensive. I liked how they have a regular sauce and a spicy sauce, I've never seen a restaurant do spicy white sauce-- it adds a good kick to it. You get a whole bowl of rice with chicken, lamb, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and pita bread for only $10 which is hard to get a meal for that nowadays! I'd definitely go to this place over Halal guys, especially with how Halal guys prices increased and I feel like portions aren't that great anymore. read more

I was driving by and was hungry and saw this restaurant in a parking lot next to a few different restaurants. I'm a big fan of gyros so thought I would give this place a shot. Service was on point. Food was amazing. The Gyro wrap came with fries which were on point also. I'll definitely be eating here again. They also offer free tea with your order. read more

Look at the pics!! Avoid !! I order the zinger burger and it was completely disgusting and poorly made!! I know you could do better and not rush or make a item sloppy or burnt. Zinger burgers are usually fried but this place gave me a chicken patty which was over cooked and did not have taste. With bunch of sauce on top!! LOOK AT MY PICS and DNT ORDER!! read more

I Just Sat The Lamb Gyro Down...Yuck. And I'm Not Just Being facetious. Horrible Bread, SUPER SALTY Meat & Look At That Helpless Produce. They Take The Crown For "Worst Halal's Around" read more

The chicken pita is amazing especially with the white sauce. I love how quick this place works.

Their Price is wrong by a huge amount. I can understand, printed menu having old prices. But their menu board was not updated.. and the price difference $15. Not okay at all. The cashier just said, oh prices have changed and ignored us, when we tried to ask more about it. Incident happened on September 4th : 10:55am read more

Combo plate is great. I love the lamb items there. Sauce has great kick to it. Fast service. Need to add this into your go to spots.

This is my favourite middle eastern restaurant in bay area. The menu has lots of options to choose from. They have a wide variety of chicken, lamb kabab options. They have plate, gyros, rice with meat combinations that are just too good. They also have burgers that I have yet to try. I recommend #1 #15 and #16 which are my fav. I highly recommend this restaurant for gyros, plate, and individual kababs on the side read more

Food was 10/10. The falafels were amazing, and the pita bread with the hummus was fire. I got an order of chicken for my sister, and she cleaned that plate thoroughly. I ordered online delivery, so no idea what the restaurant is like in person, but the food was great. read more

Been meaning to try this restaurant out. I was surprised by the large portion, saved half for later. Will definitely return. Food was good. Another reviewer mentioned the sauces, I agree with the reviewer, they're very good. The orange one will get your attention if you're not used to spicy items. I enjoyed the three different ones I had with my order. Plenty of parking as well. read more

Great service and even great food! Ordered catering for an event I was having and everyone loved the food. 10/10 recommend read more

Wallah Best Food the lamb,chicken,kofta,rice platter #1 is amazing made freshly cooked and hot and then they have yogurt sauce which pairs up perfectly with the food and they have a spicy version too. As Muslim Arab in the bay area this has to be one of the top halal foods read more

I love this place. Prices are a bit high, but definitely a yummy little spot. My fav is the lamb/chicken kabob style plate. And the felafel. The sauces are bomb. If you're not good with hot, stay away from the orange sauce. It's not for the fair of heart. read more

the best gyros! and are you kidding with the orange and white sauce! omggg! their kabob plates are freaking amazing! read more

This place has great service and food. Some on the best gyros you can get in town. I especially love the spicy sauce, which is perfectly tangy and flavorful. read more

Got a cheeseburger combo from here. $8.49 plus tax. The patty is a lil smaller than the bun and tastes handmade. The bun and patty both tasted premium. Fries had salt and middle eastern seasoning on them. They have excellent condiment selection and a spacious dining area. Great for a cheap to medium priced meal. Clean restrooms and nice workers read more

This is my top choice for any occasion. I like to take stuff to go on my way home. Whats funny is that they have another location down the road with the same menu, staff and supposedly ingredients too. However i try to stay away from there at all cost, because the food at another location smells and tastes quite questionable. With that said, if you are up for a quality kebab place it is clearly a place to visit. Don't be hesitant of the interior there, as the food there beats all the standards read more

#3 Five Pieces Baby Lamb Chops Combo served with rice, salad and bread: 8/10; this was for delivery so lamb chops were overcooked; probably would be fine dine-in though Chicken and Lamb Mix over Rice: 8/10; meat was well cooked and spiced; veggies are a mix of raw and grilled veggies which is nice. Their red sauce is quite spicy. read more

Ordered chicken burger, chicken tikka and chicken kofta. Chicken burger was grilled minced chicken patty. Chicken tikka was little dry but overall food was good. Parking is limited, location is pretty clean and enough seating space. read more

Halal Gyro Express - 10. Two Skewers of Chicken Tikka Combo - Mediterranean Near Me - San Jose, California

My first time experience at this restaurant was a disaster. I waited at least 15 mins for my chicken gyro to be completed and there were 4 ppl after me had received their food. I was getting pretty mad and I asked the cashier to check on my order. He went into the kitchen and spoke to the chef and came back out and ignored me. He didn't tell me when my order is ready or how long i have to wait, most of all no apology. That really tick me off and finally my order came. The food was good overall but employees there have a bad attitude and no social skills at all. Planning not to come back here. read more

This place smells like pee. Takes them twenty mins to get a meal out even if there's no one else in there. Food is mediocre. Meat is hard. Roasted tomato is refrigerator cold. Food is heavily spiced with cumin, probably because it's old. Salad is wilted. If you go here be warned you will come out smelling funny and not funny hahah, but funny like I want to puke. read more

The food was great! The man who took my order was very friendly and helpful. The restaurant is authentic and has authentic food. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

I was looking for a healthy meal after my chiropractor appt and this was next door. I never eat middle eastern food as it's not my favorite cuisine. I went here because I saw gyros and thought this place was Mediterranean (I didn't read the name of the place that it was halal). Overall, I'd give this place a 3.75 rating. The place was busy but the service was fast and friendly. I though the restaurant was a bit dirty for my liking but I didn't eat there anyway, but that's why I knocked my rating. I ordered the #7 lamb/chicken rice plate which was such a big portion, I had leftovers for dinner. Dish was fresh, they give you plenty of meat and rice and it was healthy but flavorful. Even the sauces were good. This place has opened my mind a bit to try more halal/middle eastern food. I may likely try again and I do recommend for those who do like this type of cuisine. read more

So the first time I came here, the food was good. I ordered a philiy cheese chicken sandwich and had a coke in a glass bottle. The second time I ordered to go and food was still good. Kabobs had nice flavor. The second time I came to pick up food to go and on my way there the restaurant called me so I thought they were calling to see if I was on my way to pick up the order but it was someone at the restaurant prank calling me...this was very unprofessional and I addressed it to them when I arrived and the guy said he was sorry and said that they usually prank call the other shop late at night and choose the wrong number and offered me baklava and a free drink to apologize...anyway just thought it was childish and unprofessional and makes me not trust them. If they call numbers to prank call customers, who's to say they won't do anything to my food as a joke. ‍ read more

This place was wonderful! I'm particularly fond of (ok, ill be honest, more like obsessed with) my favorite gyro place, but it happened to be closed so we stopped in here for some late night dinner. The restaurant was quiet- not many diners, but it was pretty late for dinner. We ordered the spicy kebabs and the tikka malasa. The food was fantastic! You order at the counter and pick up at the window- so not quite a white table cloth dining- but the food was very good! It was cheap, quick, open late, and wonderful flavors! Spicy, flavorful and well-executed. As soon as we are allowed back on the restaurant circuit we will be back!!! read more

Amazing food! We've tried the gyros, the plates, the falafel, and the spicy fries. Had it for dinner one night and went back for lunch the next day because it was so good! We also loved the service, the owner is such a nice guy. Also - where else can you find such good prices in SJ??? read more

I came across Halal Gyro looking for a salad place for dinner. I ordered the chicken over salad. The chicken was flavorful & quantity was great, you will get full. We definitely be back to try something else. read more

Overall good food. Lots of rice and meat we ordered a large spicy fries with that and it and it turned out to be way to much food. Lots of good flavors though the lamb was too much flavor. The tenderness of the meat was fantastic. The place is fast food in nature and hence the environment is not amazing but I think the food more than compensates for it. read more

Halal Gyro Express - 50. Family Combo for 3-4 People - Mediterranean Near Me - San Jose, California

One of my favorite lunch spots in the area! The value, taste, and quality of the food is impeccable compared to other well known Halal restaurants in the South Bay. The staff is also very friendly and I always have a quick and easy experience when I stop by to pick up food. I recommend the Chicken and Lamb meat mix over rice or their Lamb Gyro with fries and a soda. Don't forget to ask for their two sauces (white and orange spicy sauce) on the side: they add so much extra flavor to your dish! read more

This was a good find, I am not usually in the Campbell area but I had an appointment in the area and needed to find a quick bite. I got the chicken lamb gyro, and wow, it is probably one of the best I have found in the bay area! My wife got the chicken lamb plate she liked it so much she wouldn't share much of it with me. They had some green sause stuff not sure what it was called but it was good. As for service, the guy at the register was able to explain the menu and answer all my wifes questions. This place is a highbread of afgan food with a mix of Indian and California in there. And it is good! read more

My falafel was super hard and dry and the woman working the register taking orders wasn't very friendly. I went during lunch and they were moderately busy but she seemed annoyed that I had questions about the menu. I ended up eating less than half my meal and tossing the rest. Will not return. read more

I found this place thru doordash. I've ordered chicken and lamb with rice and salad over 10 times so far. Every time they fill the tray with full of food And lots of meat. So tasty. I have to try their other dishes. If you buy thru door dash its $2 more plus the tip. So if you want to save couple bucks you could just pick it up. read more
