The Halal Guys - Thank You for bringing a SMILE on my Face & MAKES MY Chicken Gyro sooo awesomely Delish!!!! - Halal Near Me - Glendale, California

While nothing quite takes the place of stopping at a Halal guys food cart in the middle of the big apple at 1am on a cold Saturday evening, I sure am glad this chain made its way to the West Coast. I like Halal guys because they are quick, affordable, serve good food and stay open late. The assembly style format is really working here and keeps lines moving fairly quickly. I tend to go for the chicken/beef plate combo with rice, etc + red sauce. Be warned. the red sauce is super spicy (no joke) but I love it. I also get plenty of the white sauce to counterbalance. Definitely recommend for a nightcap or just to have something filling and delicious! Stay Cheerful ;) read more

This is a decent location only because it's not too crowded. The customer service is good but at times, they seem inefficient. We stopped by here for the 3rd time and I can tell who is a lazy employee and who is a dedicated employee. Unfortunately the dedicated ones were helping me and the lazy one was very passive in helping the line behind me. Other than today's incident, the customer service is great. The food is awesome, and there's plenty of seating, inside and out. I always get fries on my platter and they make the fries fresh for you, which only takes a few minutes. This is my favorite location and we will keep coming back! read more

I arrived at around 8pm, service was good but the food was not good at all imo. Chicken is bland and looked like it had been sitting out for a while. Not sure what the hype is around this place, I'd rather eat at chipotle for the price. You can get a better bang for your buck at chipotle. $15 for a plate of bland food is pretty steep imo. Pita was cold and stale, half the bowl is lettuce. Not coming back, thank you for the nice service though. Jalapeños were spicy so that's a plus! Other than that I do not recommend. read more

Awesome location, food's always great but service is amazing. Especially Areg, management trains their staff well and makes sure precision, speed but most importantly hospitality is on point. read more

Wow!!! First timer and I'm already addicted!!! I will definitely be back. The guy who built my bowl was very helpful and went over how the process worked. He was very patient and went out of his way to go over all sauces , sides etc. Thank you for the wonderful food!! Tasted delicious! read more

I first tried Halal Guys few years back when they finally came to California and instantly fell in love with the combo platter. As the years went by, it seems not only did the hype die but so did the quality. I guess that's the reason why I don't frequent them as much. It's really a hit or miss when you go. Half the time, the chicken or the gyro is dry. The only thing that can save it is if I drench it in the white sauce (lucky for them I always do). The rice portions seem to be getting smaller by the day and the pita bread thickness is always inconsistent. The workers here really don't seem to want to be there and just do half-ass jobs all around. Every time I ask for onions and bell peppers, they seem to be annoyed because it is an additional step for them. I haven't been to any of the other locations recently, but I can safely say I'm over it now and it is not the same. read more

I always have a good experience here. Whenever I'm craving a pre or post workout meal, Halal Guys is usually my go-to. The food is pretty good. I usually order a regular chicken platter with lettuce and tomatoes. The lettuce and tomatoes are always fresh and the chicken is always juicy. I used to order the combo platter, but I've noticed that the chicken is definitely juicier, which I appreciate more. I like that everything always tastes fresh and that the atmosphere of the restaurant is quite clean. Lately, Halal guys have come out with a Spicy BBQ chicken. The server was kind enough to let me sample it. Personally, it wasn't better than the regular chicken, but it was still good nonetheless. For the sauce, I like my platter drenched in white sauce and the servers never make me feel bad for this request. Usually 2 packets of hot sauce is enough for a nice kick to my meal. As much as I enjoy the food and atmosphere here, the servers definitely play a huge part in it. Usually I am served by Christopher or the man in the black shirt that somewhat speaks like an auctioneer. They both have given me exceptional service and are so kind. There's usually metered street parking available, or if you don't mind a walk, there's a parking lot on Orange that's free for 90 minutes. read more

The Halal Guys - Small chicken platter with fries - Halal Near Me - Glendale, California

Halal Guys is real tasty, but for the last six months I've had this gift card they won't let me use. One time I walked in, ordered, and then told this gift card only worked online. That's fine. A little strange since there's a barcode on the bottom, but all good! I can try again a different day! Then a few weeks go by and I try again. This time online. However this time, the price of my food was more expensive then the value on the card. No big deal, right? Wrong! For some reason I couldn't spend the gift card and then also use my credit card to cover the remaining balance. It was either all of nothing! What a bizarre rule! So I try one more time in store. Same thing happens again! The gift card can only be used online. But, I'm standing right here, Halal Guys! I'm good for the money, I swear! I just want a taste of delicious food! So now I'm in a pickle. I have a gift card, but with no way to use it, no direction to turn. I'm just a hungry boy lost on this dark and confusing road, hoping to find the light one day... But the foods still pretty good tho! 4 stars! read more

Chicken & rice... and that white sauce. Glorious.... While it may never be as good as the original off the street cart in NYC, I like the West Coast version just fine. My cousins from Queens would always tell us how good that chicken & rice dish that the original Halal Guys in NY is...Couldnt wait to finally try it. That great rice, the shredded chicken and salad. Just add white sauce (ask for extra) and you are good to go. Delicious flavor combination. The chicken with the white sauce is super tasty. I really liked it since my very first bite. That red sauce? I'm not going any where near it, as it is crazy spicy. No thank you.... Chicken & rice. That is the go-to at Halal Guys for sure. I've also had the beef gyro and it was very good. A little messy eating but the meat was good. And the sauce and vegetables all wrapped in a thick pita, made for a great lunch in hand. I recommend it as well. This Glendale location doesnt have a lot of parking readily available as it's on Brand Boulevard almost to Wilson Ave but structure parking is usually the way to go. I, for one. am glad there is a Halal Guys in Glendale now. Thank you New York! read more

The Halal Guys - Chicken/Beef Gyro Platter and Beef Gyro Platter - Halal Near Me - Glendale, California

Place isn't too bad but from what people were saying online I guess I was expecting it to blow my mind which it did not. Some were saying that they love the rice but today it was okay for me. It didn't have too much flavor in my opinion. Got the gyro sandwich and small combo plate. The gyro was flavorful but the chicken was just okay for me. It didn't taste like it was seasoned with anything just grilled chicken that they cut up. It could be because of the sauces that they put on afterwards which was good. Three sauces that they offer which are the white success sauce, red sauce, and bbq sauce. I would recommend the white sauce and hot sauce but be careful of the hot sauce because it is spicy. I'm usually the type of person who uses a good amount of sriracha on anything I eat and this hot sauce was pretty spicy in my opinion. The bbq sauce was just a regular bbq sauce that you get at any typical restaurant. read more

We ordered lunch via DoorDash from The Halal Guys and were so pleased with our lunch (and later, dinner - these portions are big!). We placed two combo platter meals (you get a choice between two proteins: we went with chicken and gyro) with extra sauce and scoops of baba ganoush and hummus. The order on DoorDash updated periodically, with when our order was confirmed, when it was getting prepared, when our Dasher has picked up the food, etc. From ordering to getting food was just over an hour, which during these pandemic times is 100% reasonable. Food arrived and what a nice surprise - we got a side of fries as a Thank You from the house, and we were so touched for the taste of fries at home. The food came in large portions, just like the ones you used to get at the original New York stand, with the yellow rice delicious and flavorful, and holy smokes the white sauce packets are HUGE!! I had no idea and was delighted, we were able to drizzle away at our platters at our pleasure and still had some to put in the fridge for another occasion. The hot sauce was just as burn-y as I remembered as well. I was happily huffing and puffing through the spicy! Chicken was good, but gyro is GREAT. Flavorful, well seasoned, spices throughout and fragrant. The chopped veggies and tomatoes are a perfect accompaniment as well - and the food reheats really well, just as delicious even if the veggies were cooked through the second time. Even though it looks heavy, it doesn't taste heavy or settle heavily in your body - your body feels good and just wants more! Great service, a nice experience during these socially-distancing times, and delicious comforting food. read more

This is my go-to spot for a quick meal around Glendale. You can eat it there and it's great or you can get it to go and it's still fresh and amazing after you get home. I originally fell in love with Hala Guys' cart in NYC. Sure the locations in LA are not the exact same experience from NYC, but they come pretty darn close and i'm ok with that. The sauces makes the dish, make sure you get plenty of the white sauce and enjoy that fiery red sauce. read more

SERVICE Niko was my server and knew I didn't have a clue how to order. He was so friendly and helped me figure life out. Pro-server moment: he very calmly told me that the guy sauce was hot, very hot, and gave me a sample of that and the white sauce on a piece of pita. I'm so glad he did or I would have died! Also, he wished me a better day and when I asked for a cup for I've he gave me a full soda glass and said he hoped it helped with my day. I'd be back just because of the service! FOOD I got a wrap and could have been happy just eating the pita!!! Ooh, or their pita with hummus! Lucky for me I got all the fixings (minus jalepeno because I like to taste my food ) and was I in for a treat. It. Was. Packed. My next visit will have to include their baklava!!! read more

The Halal Guys - Halal Near Me - Glendale, California

Spice up your day with Halal Guys! They are known for their white sauce and red sauce. The recipe for the white sauce is TOP SECRET (unfortunately). I think the creamy white sauce is a hybrid between mayo and ranch but with a tang. However, I can't say much about the red sauce because my taste buds can only take a few drops. SAUCE AT YOUR OWN RISK - the ingredients for the super spicy red sauce include red peppers, vinegar, salt, spices and lemon juice! The menu is simple - sandwiches or platters. There are 3 protein options: gyro (beef), chicken and falafel. If it's your first time, I recommend the Combo Platter so you can try the gyro and chicken since they have different textures. Combo Platter (No lettuce, extra rice and sauce on the side) * Combo includes a generous amount of chicken and gyro * Chicken was dry and too salty * Gyro was tender and not dry (despite the appearance) * Yellow rice was dry and had a firm texture * Tomatoes were fresh and juicy * Pita was soft and warm Overall, the price and portion size was excellent. The white sauce is delicious and if you like to control how much sauce you consume, just ask for sauce packets on the side. read more

The Halal Guys - Halal Near Me - Glendale, California

This is the 3rd time in 7 days that we have been here. Last week we went back to back. Not sure what's up with 3.5 stars, as our experience, meaning me and my co workers have found a new spot that is consistently good!! Not knowing what to expect after trying it in NY, I really wasn't expecting much being in Cali. I will say the food here is delicious. Being a creature of habit, the combo meat bowl has been my go to. Not to mention every time we come in here the staff is chill and pleasant. Today was no exception, AJ, Christopher and Niko were cooking, chopping it up, and overall providing great customer service! Want good food and a place that values its customers, just stop by! read more

Average. I am used to eating halal guys in NYC but the last time I had it in 2015 it was sooo different then previous years so I stopped all together and this is the original 63rd street location! I used grub hub to deliver the order to me and found the chicken dry and in big clumps as well as the lamb. Rice was okay when you put loads of white sauce but not enough rice !!! I got 2 packets of white sauce per a platter and it was just enough but not enough for the pita unfortunately. The boyfriend likes halal guys and it's one of the only options that is open sort of late- think 10 pm and that grubhub delivers and that we are both okay with eating. read more

The Halal Guys - Regular sized Combo - Halal Near Me - Glendale, California

I guarantee if you try this place once, you will be hooked. MUST MUST make sure to get FRIES!!! the FRIES ARE THE BOMB

I have been hearing about The Halal Guys for months so I was excited to try it out. We came here two days after the grand opening and I was expecting a line to order but that wasnt the case. I was able to walk to the counter and place my order. Since we were unfamiliar with their menu, we decided to play it safe and order their combo platter with chicken and gyro with the sauce on the side. The chicken and gyro was a little bit on the dry side and the taste was kind of bland. It definitely needed some kind of sauce. After putting on the white sauce, it made a world of difference in the taste. I ended up constantly putting sauce on my meats like I do with salads. Overall, I liked the food even though it might not be best. It was something different to eat. I will definitely come back to try their other menu items. read more

Sooooo good, I can't take it!! The photo, included, was taken about 15 minutes after we received our order. And this was the second time we ordered it this week! This is also the second time ever ordering from them and I know I'll be ordering again! The Tabouleh (thank you Willy!!) is exceptional- real deal! The falafel literally makes a crunching sound then melts in your mouth, omg, I want more already! Gyro platter is amazing too- super tender, well seasoned meat. If you haven't had it, give it a go; you won't be disappointed. Nom nom! read more

The Halal Guys - Halal Near Me - Glendale, California

I came to Halal Guys after spending a day at the Glendale Galleria. We actually walked here from the Americana to avoid the parking situation. It was about a ten minutes walk so it wasn't too bad! We came on a Sunday at around 5pm and there was no wait. I ordered the regular combo (chicken and beef). I HIGHLY suggest you ask for the red sauce on the side. It can get REALLY spicy. The white sauce is really good !! The flavors of my food was all there, except the meat weren't as grilled which differentiates this restaurant from the stands in New York. The ones in New York are grilled to perfection with its char taste. Other than that, this Halal Guy's is okay. I'd come back if i'm ever craving it , but it won't be for a while. Tips: It's only a $1 more for the large compared to the regular size plates. read more

The Halal Guys - Regular combo with hummus! - Halal Near Me - Glendale, California

I'm gonna cut them some slack since they just opened and are trying to get it together. I believe we came on their second day of being opened and of course the line was still out the door. I think that because they just opened and are just trying to get it together, it took longer than needed. The employees are still somewhat slow in taking and making orders. The portions are okay, but could be better. I was charged extra for olives, something I never had to pay at other locations. I guess since now they're in Glendale and close to the Americana, they charge for everything. I'll come back to see if they've improved. I hope they do for my sake... I really like halal guys. Although, they have to remember that they're in Glendale and there are many delicious places that serve the same type of food. read more

You always know imma tear up the large chicken platter with 8 lines of hot sauce, extra white sauce, and all the toppings. I LOVE Halal guys. Something about their fries too...chef's kiss. Lemme just say that I've been to the actual Halal Guys truck in NYC on 53rd and 6th avenue...and I still prefer this one in Glendale LOL read more

Open until midnight! I was looking for late night options and came across this place. I've been meaning to try it, and this was the perfect opportunity. I've had Halal Guys before in New York and I'm not sure if I was really drunk but it was SO GOOD. I was excited, but I thought this location was just average. The white sauce I wasn't impressed with, basically tasted like Ranch. Also, warning the red sauce is really spicy! Customer service was friendly enough. But after skimming the reviews (after I got my food), I didn't experience any of the great things they talked about. I wasn't offered toppings, I didn't know that was an option. Also, I didn't know they had barbecue sauce, and nobody came around with extra sauces. Sorry to say, this was a disappointing experience. Definitely did not live up to my expectations. read more

The Halal Guys - Combo - Halal Near Me - Glendale, California

I just fell in love with middle eastern food! I took a lunch break from my job and decided to come here. I was super excited because I hear so many good things about this place, but a little nervous because a lot of people have complained about halal guys in so cal (apparently is better everywhere else). As I walked in, everyone was nice and greeted me. They were very polite when I asked questions and walked me through everything. I ordered the combo plate because it just seemed appealing to me. And man good thing I did! It was delicious and so flavorful. I should've asked for some to go packets of white sauce because the white sauce was money! I thought the pricing was decent. The free parking structure from the galleria is a little far, but walkable. There's a few spaces for street parking (meter) but it's always packed. The area is beautiful! I love Glendale. 85 degrees bakery is right next door so you can get dessert and drinks! I will definitely be coming back! read more

I was there on a Sunday, the line had 4 people, and it took 25 minutes until someone helped me. I noticed that a man from the counter received a cash payment and do not change his gloves, and proceed touching food with the same gloves. I am not coming back to this location, management you would have serving food and timing standards, such as helping people waiting in line, and PLEASE talk to your employees about not touching cash and using the same gloves to handle food. read more

Pros: Staff was friendly and went into detail about their menu and made sure I was happy with what I ordered. Restaurant and bathroom was clean. Cons: Food was mediocre... wasn't terrible either but definitely an overrated establishment. I was also disappointed in the "white sauce" since the primary ingredient in it is soybean oil (processed unhealthy junk). Was fine to try once. read more
