I honestly was taken aback, when I first entered the place. It was super clean, neat and a staff member caught me off guard by greeting me first. It may sound a bit petty on my end, but I am sick to death of going into almost any place and people that work there have zero basic social skills. Anywho, on to the Star of the Day. I had the delicious chicken platter which comes with their special grilled chicken pieces along with their famous white sauce dressing, tiny shredded carrots, small salad and rice. The food was high quality. Price was about what prices are, these days for easy to-go meals. It was a real pleasesure to go into one place somewhere, anyware, where everyone who worked there seemed glad to be there and Everyone there seemed courteous and pleasant and informative.All staff top notch. Class place. read more

Chicken and beef Bowl was very good. Fresh ingredients and stuffed to the max. Everything flavorful and very spicy so be careful of the spicy humus and red hot sauce. It's hot ! All is delicious and well priced. Staff pleasant. Will return for another late night bowl soon enough. read more

Stop charging what is normally in a shawarma as an extra side. I'm talking about your watered down Hummus! Otherwise, the place is clean and employees are friendly read more

AMAZING environment I loved the staff delicious food!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would definitely come again, super close

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! read more

This was phenomenal! A really nice welcome, incredible food, more than reasonable price. If you are hungry and want a great meal at convenience store prices- this is the place. Lettuce, tomato, rice, halal meat, sauce, toppings, hummus, pita, wow . Now you are not going for an intimate dining experience- you are going to get fed. This location was especially good with service and friendliness. read more

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. read more

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 read more

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! read more

This place is so good for take-out. I usually get a chicken plate with rice. The portions are large and I always have enough for a couple of meals. I love that they give you some pita with your meal plate - it's great to sop up the white sauce (please, please, do yourself a favor and get extra sauce - it's garlicy and delicious)! read more

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. read more

The Halal Guys - Regular Platter with beef gyro - Middle Eastern Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

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. read more

The Halal Guys - Regular Platter - Middle Eastern Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Halal guys locations, I'm glad they have multiple in Boston because NYC 53rd and 6th can be a bit far haha. Though i do think the cart has its charm and hits a bit different, Stuart was the first in our area before South Bay just opening up. Downtown is tough for parking during peak times which is the only real PITA. Aside that they have outdoor seating, plenty of space inside and the staff are quick and nice. Yes they do charge for extra sauce to go, but they have a fridge with bottles to fill up your plates before you go as well. Always get beef with rice onions jalepenos and peppers! Good for two meals for me half and half. Will be back on next craving read more

The worst Halal food I've ever had. Find a food truck. Avoid this garbage. It doesn't have any of the same taste or spice as a classic halal food truck. It's bland shredded chicken with weak ass mayo sauce on top. read more

I ordered food twice from this location of Halal Guys. First time was after arriving in Boston after a long flight from SFO. The food was excellent. Fresh ingredients and a good price. My picky eater daughter loved it! After our week trip long trip In New England we arrived back in Boston before flying out. My daughter requested Halal Guys again. We bought food to take on the airplane with us. Again the food was fresh, delicious and a good price. I'd also like to add that the folks working in the restaurant were so friendly and welcoming. I would go back just for the friendliness! read more

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

(I got the regular platter for $12.99 which is only $1 more than the small platter and has a lot of food. You can choose your choice of protein for the same price) The price is reasonable, the portions are big and the food tastes great. I typically get a chicken, beef or falafel platter and every time the food was great. The workers are very nice and friendly too. Short walk from Charles street if you park near the commons or public gardens. read more

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! read more

The Halal Guys - Beef Gyro Platter - Middle Eastern Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Had dinner here before a show in the theatre district on a Tuesday night. We just beat the rush at 6 pm as we sat to eat and the place filled up with other patrons also dining in, and folks getting take out and picking up delivery orders. We each ordered bowls filled with rice and salad; I had falafel (4 delicious balls) plus added extra toppings of spicy hummus (a little too thin/loose but tasted good) and babaganoush (very good); the hubs had chicken with the spicy hummus and babaganoush. Overall, for what appears to be a little fast food joint, the food was really good - great quality, tasty, fresh, and good portions. We were also pleased to see they were so busy, and everyone who dined in and sat near us really appeared to enjoy their food too. We also observed an unhoused person come in off the street and ask for help - the ladies behind the counter treated him with dignity and respect, dished up a plate for him and sent him on his way. I was really touched by their kindness and willingness to serve him with no fuss. I would definitely recommend this place, especially if you are in the area for a show and want something that is a good value, tasty, quick and fresh. read more

This place was quick and friendly. Pick your poison (not literally) of what you want a wrap or a fork because you're not gonna be hungry after indulging in this one. My recommendation would go for the platter get the regular because it's only a dollar more and it's full of lettuce, rice, and meat of your choice whether you want Gyro, chicken, or falafel. For the platter you get to pick all of the different toppings whether you want onions, jalapeños, hummus, white sauce, hot sauce, you name it loaded up. Warning - if you don't like that heat, don't get the hot sauce maybe try the packet, this "red sauce" is kind of fiery... one step, two striped three stripe, depending on what you want. No pics to share on this one, we were too hungry to make sure we took pictures. read more

I used to line up at their food cart when I was going to college in NYC. I remember the long line but was so worth it. They have since expanded and now have restaurants. The food is not as good as I remember but still decent. I got a combo 2 type of meat platter and it was fresh and good. read more

4.5/5 for flavor, portion, and price! The only critique would be to char the chicken more, but the beef gyro and falafel were cooked well! read more

The Halal Guys - Falafel Platter - Middle Eastern Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

We walked past this place earlier in the day and then decided to order delivery for dinner. Food came pretty fast and was still warm which I like because who likes cold food?? We ordered the chicken platter, beef and chicken gyro sandwich, 4 falafels and side of rice. First of all the portions are good, and the food is fresh and filling. Very reasonable prices. You can see the platter full of food - although I will say the platter could have used more rice. But there was plenty of chicken and it was tender and I really liked the soft fluffy pita. Lettuce, tomatoes, onions and green peppers complemented everything nicely. The hubs liked his gyro overall - lots of meat, very filling. I thought the falafels were great! I usually don't like falafels because I find them dry. But these were warm, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, not dry at all. I ate two of them pretty quickly he he. Only a couple things - while the meats were flavorful, we've had much better elsewhere - even from other halal type places. Also the food came with this white sauce packet and a hot sauce packet, but no sauce on the food itself. The white sauce was okay. You definitely had to add sauce to both the platter and the gyro, otherwise it felt a bit dry to eat. And then the white sauce itself was just alright. Like I said, the other place has better sauces that come in little containers in addition to the packet sauce. Here, you had to pay more if you wanted additional sauces so I don't know what those sauces are like coz I was not about to pay another couple dollars just for those. Overall a good experience to try out once. read more

Legitimately some of the best app delivery food I've ever had in Boston. Got the falafel and chicken plates and man, every single bite was delicious and packed with flavor. Huge portions, their own white sauce packets which are amazing... great price, great food. Can't wait to order again. read more

Plater meal comes with a big salad and lots of rice. Lacking meat but that may be ok because the beef is overcooked and dry. You get a choice 3 toppings but only two are free! Hummus is premium price watch your bill. I received one hummus and was charged for two. Advertising for meal is 12.99. I ended up paying 25.00 for meal and drink. Better off going to a real restaurant and get a better meal. Staff was friendly read more

I think I was eating food. I'm pretty sure because the crunch of the lettuce in the felafel pita sandwich was reminiscent. The chopped tomatoes were familiar. Mostly there was texture. I kept darting out my olfactories for flavor. But there wasn't any. Thanks, Halal Guy. I kind of enjoyed drifting into your bright lit emporium on Stuart across from the W. High ceilings. Cherry red counters. A lot of bustle. No flavor though. read more

As someone who loves a good halal food truck, I was excited to try the food at this location, especially given the reputation Halal Guys has in NYC. It's also in a very convenient spot, tucked away in Downtown, making it ideal for a quick bite to eat. Despite the convenience, I didn't enjoy the overall experience here as much as I hoped. The taste and quality of the ingredients were really the biggest disappointment here. It was definitely edible but it just wasn't very good, especially when comparing it against other halal food I've had. I ordered the small platter with beef, veggies, and white sauce, which came served over some rice. The veggies and meat tasted like it had been sitting out for awhile, but the rice was decently cooked. It's unfortunate because this location (and other similar chains in the area) have also just gotten so flooded with delivery drivers that it just hasn't become a very nice spot to sit and eat at. I'll probably give this place another chance but it's definitely not met the expectations I had for it. read more

I was recently in Boston for a medical trip and was looking for something new to try. I spent a good hour scrolling thru all the food delivery apps. After pouring through positive reviews, I settled on The Halal Guys. I ordered the Beef Gyro Sandwich. The pita is fresh and soft and holds up well to the meat they pile onto the pita. However, I'd strongly suggest ordering the Platters instead if it's being delivered. By the time it's delivered, the pita is just soaked in grease. It was so good the first time, I had to try it again! This time, I went with the Chicken and Beef Gyro Platter. It was filled with special rice, tomatoes, lettuce, pita slices, beef, & chicken. I highly recommend ordering extra pitas- you can easily get two meals out of a Regular size platter. The food was delicious. Hot. Fresh. Delivered quickly. I'd highly recommend it to others who love Gyro-style meats. Pro Tip: The red sauce is HOT. This is coming from someone who loves hot and spicy. The white sauce is phenomenal and will put out the burn. I suggest ordering an extra white sauce with your order. read more

Great food and nice staff! They really care about you. Nice place too! I would recommend this place to anyone!

Great service and even better food! Definitely come to this location, the staff was super welcoming and gave generous petitions!

I was taken aback at how bland this alleged chicken shawarma sandwich was. I think there are much better shawarma shops than this for sure. Avoid unless you have no other option. read more

Halal Guys has stepped up their game during this COVID19 pandemic and have made the necessary changes in order to not only keep their customers safe but also their employees! Bravo. You have to wear a mask in order to step into this establishment. They've also set up a barrier so that you're at least 6 feet away from the staff. They are still serving up the same, delicious food. Is it the same as the infamous food cart in NYC? Almost. The thing that sets Halal Guys above all other halal places is that red sauce! It's super hot but doesn't mess up the flavor of your food. You don't have to add much to bring on the heat. I love practically drowning my platters with white sauce and adding at least 4 lines of that red sauce. The beef gyro sandwich is also on point. They really fill it up so you get a full sandwich. I also dig how that pita bread is so soft. read more

Great food! great service and staff! Great location! favorite place in boston. Always come here.

These folks come into my office every once in awhile and it's one of the best pop ups that comes into office. It's worth all the rage imo. The folks that come in provide great service and the food is great. Falafels runs out so fast so we definitely have to line up early. My go to is the chicken platter with rice and hummus. Loads of flavor in the chicken and goes so well the red and white sauce they offer. The pita bread is great as well. Nice and moist to go along with the hummus. If you're looking for some heat, red sauce will bring the heat. It's HOT and I have high tolerance. The hot sauce taste great as well. The white sauce brings a bit of sweetness to offer a balance taste. Enjoy. read more
