The Halal Guys

First time I tried The Halal Guys, couple years ago at midtown location from cart and was not a good experience. This time I probably came to the right spot. Food was delicious, especially sauce made even better. I ordered falafel sandwich and chicken platter. Both were very delicious. Definitely recommend it.

This place has gotten progressively worse, price increases and smaller portion sizes will be The Halal Guys’ downfall. People who’ve known about them for a long time know that they’ve begun to care less about the customer and more about how they can increase their profit margins. Nobody wants to spend more money for less food and the shift from 8 dollars for a full plate to 11 dollars for nearly half a plate over the course of a few years is insulting to the consumer.

We always eat at halal guys in midtown. And its our first time to try here in upper west side. Kinda got surprised for the price and the portion of food. Its more expensive and less serving than the one in the cart in midtown. But I mean, they got their place and own store so maybe that’s why its reasonable that they need to be price higher. The place is clean, we did dine in. We might come back if we’re around the area. PS: they got a lot of dine in tables. Maybe around 5 tables inside, and there’s a bunch of tables outside.

Honestly like this more than the original cart location. You can sit down and eat properly, and portions are solid. My only complaint is that I wish you can put sauces yourself. Be aware they try to charge you for extra packets of sauce. I do like the options of stuff you can add to the food (onions, peppers, etc).
