    I love ordering takeout from Halal Guys. They always fill it to the brim and add plenty of condiments. I got the combo plate with wings and sliced chicken. The wings are newer to the menu, and I was pleasantly surprised. The meat was super tender and flavorful. The sliced chicken is always my go-to because it's so tender and moist. I like mine with the white sauce and BBQ sauce. If you're super sauce heavy and want your food swimming in it, then I would order extra sauce. Otherwise, I think it's the perfect amount

    The Halal Guys is good and reliable. The portions are consistent and the food is tasty. The service is friendly and efficient. I came during the lunch rush and surprisingly I was out of there within 5 minutes. I ordered the chicken lunch platter. That comes with rice, tomatoes, lettuce and pita bread. SO GOOD! They give a good amount, I ended up having leftovers. Food is fresh and delicious. I love the white sauce that comes with the meal, it is packed with flavor and takes the meal to another level!

    My memories of Halal Guys will forever be connected to the late nights lined up at their original 53rd & 6th cart in NYC. They've since expanded; when perusing Boston dinner options on a food delivery app, the familiar name jumped out at me. I ordered a regular-size Falafel Platter ($14.49 on the delivery app) which comes with pita, tomatoes, & lettuce over rice. The rice & falafel aren't as soft & fluffy as I would've liked (it didn't have anything to do with transit time as our food arrived quickly, still hot & fresh.) Much better when combined with the veggies & lashings of white sauce & hot sauce provided. Large portion, nice & comforting flavors, however I'm looking for a more pillowy mouthfeel. My companions were happy with their platters of Chicken Wings ($13.99, choice of sauce) & Spicy BBQ Chicken ($15.49.) Times sure have changed. I love the convenience of delivery to my warm, comfortable hotel room; those exciting, exhausted, often drunken 1am's in the city was a lifetime ago.

    This Halal Guys is solid and dependable. The platters I get from here are very consistent, and always taste so good. The service here is kind & quick as well. There is seating here too, though it was a bit crowded. Prices have gone up significantly since before the pandemic as expected in today's economy, so keep that in mind when dropping by--now getting halal may not be the most affordable/bang for your buck cheap bite depending on what you are looking for. Nevertheless, this Halal Guys is a good spot when you're getting the craving!

    NYC Halal Guys was my first and brings back so many good memories. I stopped by on Thursday for a late lunch and my taste buds definitely missed the delightful mix of white sauce with a lil bit of red, on top of the yummy beef and perfect rice. The regular platter is perfect to share or to split for 2 meals.

    Halal Guys in Boston serves solid, tasty Middle Eastern food, with flavorful proteins, gyro, or falafel over rice or in a pita, topped with their signature white sauce and hot sauce (optional). While the food is good, the prices can feel a bit high for what you get if you stuck with small, especially since the portion size difference between the small and regular for the extra $1-1.50 more is worth more. Service was quick and easy, luckily it wasn't that busy that I was able to take my time to order. Overall, if you're craving Halal Guys and don't mind spending a little more, it's a solid choice for the area. Regular platter is $13-14 but not sure what I added to make it more expensive then originally thought. 2x Regular Platter and 1x bottle soda totaled to $37.

    Ordered through UberEats. Great value, nicely packaged. Looks unseasoned but packs a lot of flavor.

    Beef Gyro Platter

    As a Jersey girl, I'm embarassed to say I've never had Halah Guys in New York City. However, the Boston version did not disappoint. I tried the basic Beef Gyro Platter, which was loaded up with plenty of meat and rice. To my surprise, the meat wasn't too greasy and had a pretty nice flavor. I do wish they threw on some more vegetables, however. I added some of the hot sauce to my bowl, which was actually quite spicy! The location itself is nothing special, just what you would expect from a fast food joint. But, you're not coming for the service or the ambiance, you're coming for the food. I could see this being a good spot for either a quick lunch or a late night snack. Now I'll just have to visit one of the New York City locations and see what the hype is all about!

She was so excited when she found Cafe Bonjour because they had several gluten-free options on the menu. We took an Uber there right after we landed and were able to walk right in and get a table when they opened, which worked out perfectly because the place started to fill up! It's a cute little spot with plenty of seating inside, and they also had a nice outdoor parklet that would be great in good weather. We asked to sit at the bar so we could watch the cooks in action, which was really fun. The menu had all the classic breakfast favorites like eggs and French toast, along with some lunch options like hamburgers and chicken wraps. The staff was very friendly and attentive.

We ordered the cheese topokki (soft rice cake, fish cake, vegetable, & mozzarella in Korean spicy sauce) & the beef bulgogi bowl (fried marinated beef, vegetables, steamed rice & side of soup). The cheese topokki was just as good as we remembered - chewy, flavorful, comforting, & a little bit weird. The cheese was poorly distributed, but it was still very tasty. The beef bulgogi bowl was really underwhelming. Firstly, it was very little food. We were promised vegetables, but there were only a few scarce onions & zucchini pieces mixed in. It was also dry. It was devoid of moisture & sauce, so we added some from the fridge at home. The side of soup was a joke. It filled only about 2/3 of the container & looked so sad, we wondered if it was the sauce that we we so desperately needed. Nope, just a meager amount of watered down miso soup. So the conclusion - great topokki, sub-par bulgogi, non-existent soup.

The shredded chicken was tender and the stew did not feel too heavy to feel bogged down. The bread that came with it was also big and crisp but still soft inside. Together the two made a complementary meal that was satisfying. Despite how hard it was to track down our waiter, we still enjoyed the part of the meal we had. The upstairs definitely feels like the waiters are more on top of it and there is a more airy ambiance. The downstairs wasnt the most ideal and while good for big groups, youre still very aware of dining in a basement.

Sultan: The lamb was stewed for a long time until incredibly tender and melted in your mouth, with absolutely no gamey taste. Although it's called "sweet lamb", it didn't have a strong sweetness; instead, it had a typical mild, complex flavor of onions, cumin, coriander seeds, and other spices. The Yellow Rice was likely seasoned with turmeric and saffron, making it very flavorful. The basmati rice grains were distinct but not too dry, perfect for mixing with the sauce. The White Garlic Sauce wasn't overpowering; it mainly added a touch of acidity, which, along with the cool, sweet corn, helped to cut through the greasiness. Actually, it was completely different from any other Moroccan lamb stew I've had. It was more like Yemeni Mandi, but with more layers of flavor and a more universally appealing taste. As a fusion dish, how can it not be considered a success? This restaurant offered self-build options, but I was rushing to the World Cup Fan Festival and didn't even have time to look at the menu carefully.
