    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.

    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

    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.

    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!

    We came here on a Saturday evening without a reservation and were seated with no wait. The service…read morewas great and our orders both were taken and came out pretty quickly. For the food, we got the tuna kimbap, Seoul toppoki, and bulgogi hot pot for two. Everything was SO good. The ingredients were fresh and the food was flavorful (sweet from the bulgogi, savory from the mushrooms, spicy from the toppoki sauce, salty from the tuna, and sour from the pickled vegetables). The price for the portion size was a great value and we ended the night feeling very full and even had to pack up an entire container of the hotpot for two that we didn't finish. Overall, we had a great time and I can't wait to come back again. This might be my new favorite Korean food spot in the Boston area.

    This was our second time ordering delivery from Seoul Topokki. We remembered it being really good…read morethe first time, so we went for round two. 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.

Very homey and cozy vibes inside, the staff are super nice and welcoming. We sat at the "traditional" seating near the windows and the pillows are comfortable, just try to wear comfortable pants (not stiff jeans) if you choose it. As for food - everything was great. We got the mutabal (like baba ghanouj), veggie samboosa, and chicken mandi. That was enough for 2 to share and go home with leftovers. Not a single complaint, everything was delicious! We were also celebrating an occasion and the staff went all out - first, a cup of tea on the house, then a walnut baklava, delivered with a candle and music. I don't typically reach for baklava but this one blew my mind. This experience made my day. Thank you so much to the staff and we will certainly come back soon!

    TLDR: shockingly flavorful food in a homey ambiance…read more I have to say I was blown away with the flavors presented to me here. In particular, the pork dumplings were such a surprise pick! They're filled with this flavorful broth so despite looking very unassuming they were bursting with flavor. We came here on a Sunday evening without a reservation and were seated in 10min. The menu is entirely online but food came out quickly after we ordered. Dishes we got: - beef laghman: spiced well and chewy noodles! I liked it, although I was a bit confused if it was Uyghur or Chinese because it tasted very similar to Chinese food to me - Pork dumplings: delicious, you have to get these. They look so boring. They're SO good and there's so many. - Mapo tofu: my mouth was very numb eating this but the tofu was silky smooth. I can only assume it was good but I didn't have much spice tolerance left in me after the laghman.

    Cozy, intimate, and very quiet. This restaurant is a great option for date night or a quiet setting…read morebest for lunch and dinner. Service was prompt and thorough. The menu offers options of seafood, beef, and chicken with pairings such as noodles or rice. We ordered the samosa and dumplings for appetizer and you really can't go wrong with either option.

Everything was flavorful and I would describe as a between of east and South Asian dishes with its own uniqueness that is a must try!
