I didn't expect to find this Halal Guys location today. It is in a busy strip mall, Linwood Plaza. I'm used to getting Halal Guys at the cart or their 14th street location so I figured this would be no different. Almost. This store had additional items, plus a few ad-ons available with the platters. I stuck with my usual order, a small chicken platter. Everything was normal, rice, chicken, salad, pita, sauce. They do have the option of adding onions, and peppers which I don't think the cart has. I'm used to reaching the front of the cart line and proclaiming 'small chicken please!'. So walking in looking at their modern menu had me a bit flummoxed. The woman putting my plate together probably sensed my confusion/discomfort and walked me through the process. In addition to the chicken, lamb and falafel meals, wings are also an option. They have a couple dessert items, along with lemonades and fountain drinks. The store itself looked clean and I chose to eat at one of the tables. While no one else was sitting in store with me, many people were in and out for pick-ups and deliveries. I'm glad I found this gem and will add it to places I'd visit again read more

The Halal Guys - Small chicken platter drowned in white sauce alongside a White Sauce Packet To-Go - Halal Near Me - Fort Lee, New Jersey

This is my favorite Jersey location. I go here often after 9pm when I'm craving a late night platter. Even though I come later in the evenings, food is consistently fresh and tasty. Unfortunately it isn't an exact replica of the OG cart on 53rd street, but it does the job if you can look past that. It's also a few dollars more and has smaller portions. My go-to order is a mixed chicken and beef platter with rice, lettuce, tomato, pita bread, and lots of white sauce. I like mine drenched in sauce, call me a sicko... If you're in the mood for something sweet, get the baklava! The employees are always friendly, polite, and very generous with the portions. Shout out to Mohammed (sorry for any incorrect spelling)!

Stopped in on a Wednesday at around 1:30 PM to pick up a few platters. It wasn't too busy at that time. I had the beef gyro, which is what I normally get because the chicken can be dry. The quality is pretty consistent with 53rd and 6th. I like that they have a little bit extra here - you can choose to add raw peppers and onions if you want, whereas at the cart, you don't have that option. Would definitely visit this location again the next time the halal craving hits. read more

The Halal Guys - Mixed platter and beef gyro platter - Halal Near Me - Fort Lee, New Jersey

The falafel from these guys is dry and tasteless. They are machine formed and cooked in a machine that looks like a pod coffee maker. Pita was surprisingly dry and hard given the stand had just opened. Lettuce and tomato are fine and hot sauce is not for meek or mild. Fine service at Yankee Stadium, but I'm sticking with a hot dog. read more

This is one of the worst Halal guys I've been to proportions are so small. I ordered beef and half of chicken. They gave me about eight pieces of chicken. The guy was not friendly at all. Definitely don't recommend this one one on 91st St. is way much better. All the ones in the city are very nice. This guy is terrible. read more

I just got a chicken platter. It looks like it's been sitting around all day. Ice berg lettuce, terrible. However the worst thing is they wanted to charge me for a packet of hot sauce. An actual ketchup size packet. And to think I actually left a tip. read more

I've been eating Halal Guys for a decade. When the street cart price was $6. I just paid $15.00 for a platter and the white sauce is rancid. It separated before I got home to eat the platter and tastes awful. read more

The Halal Guys - White Sauce - Halal Near Me - Fort Lee, New Jersey

This place was pretty disappointing. Location rides of the Halal Guys name and the only thing really up to par with the 53rd MoMa location are their pre-packaged sauces. The food here really reminds me of those knock-off trucks on 53rd hoping people accidently think those are the original cart or if the original cart's line is too long. The Good: Portion sizes were okay, a bit light. It's not packed to the top like days of old, but I haven't been to the 53rd spot in years, so maybe supply chains made them all like this? Their sauces are still legit. The Bad: The food quality here is just not it. You would also expect a restaurant would be better equipped then a street cart, but I guess it really opens your eyes to how important chefs are. These watered down expansion locations have no heart and are just sad imitations. The meats: very light on the meat. Meats are hidden underneath the field of lettuce. Think overall I'm being a little harsher than usual but I love Halal Guys. This place is named The Halal Guys, has their sauces, and their napkin/bags are labeled The Halal Guys; that's pretty much it. If you gave me a blind test of a knockoff 53rd street halal food, this, and 53rd Halal Guys, I'd probably say you gave me two knock offs. Noted, I understand Halal food isn't exclusive to Halal Guys, but carts that are literally on 53rd across of The Halal Guys named things like "The Halal Bros" are knockoffs in my books. Summary: This place is pretty much riding on its name brand to charge $13 in New Jersey for maybe half the meat of Chiptole. Horrible representor of The Halal Guys or Halal Food in general. If you average the reviews outside of the Yelp Elite opening event the place would probably be a whole star lower. Could find better halal food locally for 60-75% of the price. read more

Bottom line, food is good. Brings you back close enough to the experiences of eating street food in NYC. If you miss the nostalgic moments of standing on the street & gulping down a delicious plate of chicken over rice, here you go. Tried beef gyro, falafel & of course the chicken over rice plattee. Platter is served with lettuce, tomatoes & yellow rice with chicken over rice. The signatire white rice & spicy hot sauce always makes things better. read more

I'll leave an honest review, I got to this location at 11:32pm, at 5/10/25 I have receipt, they had tray full of meat, and instead they took the previous empty tray, scraped a couple pieces of meat and gave it to us. There was LITERALLY 4-5 tiny piece of meat in the whole platter. And the dude that was making the platter is absolutely one of the rudest I've met in NY, I been here for 12 years. Real talk if ur reading this review these guys have gotten famous and they are banking off of the fame. Take ur business somewhere else instead of standing on line for shitty service and shitty meat portions. I promise you, you'll have a better experience. read more

When they opened awhile back it has been great, but since that opening the food has been very inconsistent. One week is good and following week is terrible. I use ubereats a lot and quite frankly I don't think it's worth to order from this outfit in fort lee. I have priority delivery and at times it has been delivered cold and it's not the drivers . I don't recommend this place. Now there's Shah Halal, it's amazing, I order from them at least 2 to 3 times per week. They are consistent with there foods. read more

I ate my sandwich so fast I didn't get a picture lol. It was absolutely delicious. We ordered ahead of the app and when we came it was ready. The service is fast, though, so you may not even need to order ahead but great idea for large orders or during peak times. The sauce is what makes the gyro and they give you a large packet of it which I appreciated. A restaurant that does not skimp on the sauce is my kind of restaurant. Definitely recommend this spot. Staff is very friendly and vibe is nice. I would go back! read more

I cant even explain how disgusting this is. I got a fountain soda. And I tasted little bits. So I dumped out the cup of soda to find this. They need to clean their fountain soda machine. It makes me question how they handle their food prep. read more

Good service here, loaded up on the white sauce and hot sauce which I appreciate. The mixed gyro sandwich was pretty good. Platter was filling, but could use a tad more rice. Their side hummus is quite good. I recommend it as a side. read more

The Halal Guys - Loaded with white sauce - Halal Near Me - Fort Lee, New Jersey

I get the same platter once every couple weeks and I got the same platter today and they made it way too hot so I couldn't even eat quarter of it. It was drenched with barbecue sauce and hot sauce with almost no white sauce. read more

1st time checking out this new location as I pass it after coming off the GW. They have beef, chicken and or falafel. You can get it as a sandwich or in a dish w yellow rice and iceberg lettuce. Overall it was tasty but have you ever had chicken/beef gyro over rice and it was bad? The meat portions are small. They don't even overload you on rice. It's mostly iceberg shrubbery fluff w a sprinkle of tomatoes if you like. Service to make the dish was super fast but to pay took a little bit as it was handed off to a Dif guy who aside from doing the register was also prepping other peoples orders. As I said, taste wise good but at almost $13 for a dish lettuce and rice w a drop of meat that goes for $6-8 anywhere else, hard pass. If you want to charge a premium or double the cost of anywhere else, then you have to stand out somehow. More meat, free fixings...ect. An established name doesn't justify twice the price. Halal Guys out! Price ain't kosher read more

Fast friendly service! Came here when they opened already and glad to see they have so much business already! The line moved very quickly however. I got one beef platter and one combo platter to go with extra white sauce. They also provided sides like onions, jalapeño, peppers, and olives for you to add which was a super nice touch. We took our platters to go and I'm not sure if they just had an off day or something but didn't think the food tasted as good as the Halal guys in teterboro. It was a bit too salty but yet not as flavorful as the other halal guys. Overall we still enjoyed our meal and would love to come back and try again. Location was convenient and located right next to H Mart in the same shopping center. read more

I recall 3am after a night out in the city, trekking out to 6th & 53rd, standing in a long line and eating a hot plate of chicken and rice in the freezing winter. Those days are long gone now but I still get to enjoy the halal guys in the convenience of an in door restaurant. It's not easy taking your food cart and bring it to a true brick and mortar while retaining the consistent quality at a larger scale. For this location at least, it was excellent. Perfect. I enjoyed every bite and chowed down like no tomorrow. If you've never had it, do yourself a favor and give it a go. read more

Went during Yelp event and also a previous frequenter of the teterboro location - overall very good quality fast casual food!

We've been to the Halal Guys in Fort Lee before for a Yelp Elite event. That was during their soft opening, so we returned a few weeks later to check them out while they were officially opened. Still just as great as the soft opening! The portion sizes and the quality of the meat is just as great as the original stall at 53rd and 6th. After two very mediocre platters at their lower Manhattan storefront, we swore off Halal Guy storefronts. But we are very happy to report that Fort Lee store front is a winner. They do not skimp on the white sauce here and they're super friendly and nice. Meats were fresh, juicy, and abundant in the platter. You can tell they're not serving you meat that's just been sitting there for hours. I'm so happy that there's a Halal Guys that we can trust to be good so close to us - and we don't have to trek out to midtown. read more

I just want to say the food in this place is good. That said their service isn't. I placed 3 orders ahead to this place for pickup. The first went great, it was ready when I got there as expected. The second time I had to stand there for 15 minutes, which is fine but not a great experience. That said as a one off it's no big deal. The 3rd time I ordered again my food wasn't ready when I got there. There was one worker in the front of the store helping someone, eventually someone came in behind me and shortly after a second employee walked out, he initially ignored me and started helping the person behind me. I asked the status of my food and if he could help me and he said he needed to cook the falafel and went back to helping the person behind me. I asked him to cancel my order as I didn't have time to stand there for and additional 15 minutes and left. He didn't cancel my order and now I am contesting the charge with Amex. Do not go here if you plan to order ahead and are counting on your food being ready. read more

One day I thought it would be great to visit a place that created Middle Eastern food. I wanted some new but also traditional. I found the Halal Guys. The one here in Ft. Lee is a new version of a place that various locations here and in NYC. Going in side I found some of the specialties that are known for. There are gyros, falafel, chicken, humus and more. You can have a wrap. You can have a plate. It is all freshly made and the price is right. There is a good menu to select from. Once you have made a decision you can also have a salad or other side dishes to choose. It is good no matter what you select. But is it the best? That depends on what you want and how you might like it. It is not spicy. It is not seasoned. It is not hot. To think that this started as a fast food cart in NYC is one thing. That is how I found it. It was perfect for lunch when I wanted something different. The gentleman in the cart knew what I liked and how I liked it. That was perfect. Now that it is in the location here in Ft Lee it is different. I miss the enjoyment I had with the food cart. That was more like I had when I would travel in the Middle East. That was a taste to enjoy. Now, the location is a fast food place to pick up something today here in the US. You will move on tomorrow to something else. The price is right. The location is fine. But when I am back in NYC I will stop and see the cart I like with the gentleman I enjoy to meet. He makes the better meal for me. It is what I expect. read more

They have delicious Sandwiches in beef, chicken or falafel. You can get small or large platters with rice, salad, pita and beef, chicken or falafel. Good fries and hummus too. Nice lemonade and tea with pomegranate, lychee and passion fruit flavours. They also have chocolate chip cookies, baklava and baklava cheesecake. "Mo" Mohammed and Yasser who prepared the food were kind and helpful. read more

Brand new spot in Fort Lee and any time a Halal guys location comes to town I have to try. This food is addicting to eat and I love it. This is a little more upscale than the street food in nyc but its all good. I went with the lamb and chicken platter and it was beautifully done. The rice was perfectly cooked but had a weird bright orange color. The meat was not overcooked or sitting there for a while. Be careful with the hot sauce since it is very hot. White sauce always on point. If you like the NYC street food you will like this spot. read more

Good Morning Fort lee. The Halal guys have finally arrived. Not bad but not as good as it Could've been. The beef was overcooked and dry, and the chicken was tasteless. Nice rice and some chopped tomatoes and lettuce. The chopped onions was so minuscule they hardly added any taste to the salad. I was a little taken back why charge me for jalapeños, I thought their idea was spicy? The pita bread was fresh and delicious. The place was clean and the staff was eager to please. I look forward to going back again however "Guys" let's get it together. read more

Dont come. Not worth it. Today, i came in around 9:45PM. There were 2 workers--1 was wearing glasses. The worker who was not wearing glasses; I suggest, do not work, if you do not want to work. His attitude is horrible and did not care. Again, do not work if you do not want to work. Do not come. Not worth it, for what you pay. Please, just leave Linwood Plaza. You guys do not care for your customers. read more
