Food: 5.0 for gyro sandwich and wings (the crispiness of the wings & heat is perfect!) Their white sauce is the best! Service: 5.0 quick, efficient and pleasant Ambiance: 4.8 Side note: I did get an extra take home sandwich bc it was just that good read more

I usually like Halal Guys but this location is HORRIBLE. 3rd time now. Here is what you get if you order from this specific location: -LAST NIGHTS COLD OLD CRUNCHY MEAT (BEEF AND CHICKEN) -ROTTEN SLIMEY STINKY TOMATOES (SMELLED LIKE BODY ODOR) All three times I tried to eat here it was always the same guy all by himself handling a line of people who don't know how bad this place is. Manager is never around so the quality is as low as it can be because they don't care. I can't believe I paid 30 dollars for a meal that tasted like it was taken out of a dumpster and sat overnight, cold like out of the fridge. NASTY! AVOID! read more

Came here after the gym 45 minutes before closing. I really wanted to love it as I have been here before. Seriously disappointed. I got the beef sandwich with hummus onions lettuce jalapeños and white sauce. Pita was tasteless sauce tasted like pure mayonnaise and the meet was flavorless. I dis t even eat half of it I had to throw it away. Inside was not that. Clean and I could see the oil they use to cook the food in was a very dark and looked like it had not been changed in months. I will not be coming back and now to to find somewhere else to go UGH. read more

I am on a diet, so I am always looking for something healthy on these days. I went to The Halal Guys on Friday night. There were very few customers and the lady who seems to be a manager was working alone. I ordered one beef/chicken regular size platter. It was outstanding, because the platter had many different fresh vegetables such as tomatoes, lettuce, and onions. Also the red rice cooked perfect, so it was very soft to eat. Beef and Chicken were soft too, and had good amount of seasonings. Their signature white sauce paired perfect with the platter that I ordered. My only complaint was the pita bread, because it was as dry as sponge. Every time when I make a visit here, I always get warm welcome feeling, because the staffs are attentive, and interior of the restaurant is really clean with many comfortable looking tables. I think I will come back here very soon. read more

The Halal Guys - Chicken/Beef Regular size platter with all the sauces on side. - Halal Near Me - Cerritos, California

First time here since they had a special advertised on Facebook for free chicken wings with a minimum purchase. I ordered the Chicken platter and it was excellent! The only reason I gave a 4 instead of 5 was because I paid for hummus on the side and it wasn't included in my bag. I ordered mine to go. The food was very healthy. I might return because they also serve Babaganoush, which I love and isn't found in American supermarkets. read more

Located In a small shopping area with a lot of places to choose from for lunch. Parking is hard to come by especially for Lunch. First time for my wife and she enjoyed it. We had lamb/beef and lamb/chicken both had really good flavor. Added white sauce and did only 2 lines of the red sauce. It can be very hot. Staff were friendly and inviting and didn't take long to go through the line. Would come by again. read more

Food arrived COLD. I was the 3 delivery the driver had. Food food should be delivered 1 delivery only. My delivery charge wasn't split 3 ways. The falafel patties had no flavor. I tried reheating in the microwave but it was so nasty I just threw the meal in the trash. I will not be ordering from here again. Sorry for the review. Maybe tell) the delivery service that you only want 1 meal to be delivered to ensure the food is still hot. Also their famous sauce tastes like creamy mayo. read more

I have visited this location twice this week, both times around two hours before closing. On both occasions, I was told by the worker that they were out of rice and that the next batch would not be ready for a couple of hours. However, I could see that rice was available, and when I asked about it, the worker was able to make an online order using the rice that was supposedly unavailable to walk-in customers. I find this extremely disappointing and frustrating. If rice is available for online orders, I don't understand why a walk-in customer is being told that there is none available. Will not be coming back. read more

Hello everyone! Please do not order online from the app. I just got my order and it did not even include pita bread. The meat amount was not enough as well. The meat portion is similar to how Chipotle sends out their online orders. There was more lettuce. There was also a plastic thing inside my platter. I almost got choked but thankfully I caught it. So I recommend ordering in person and seeing the worker make your order. read more

The food was okay, we got the regular combo plate and the portions are plentiful, enough for 2 people to share. Makes for a great low carb/keto meal if you just ask for more lettuce in place of the rice. The place seems a little run down so we took it to go and enjoyed it at home. The halal white sauce is really good, the hot sauce makes you sweat so don't put too much of it on your plate if you can't take the heat! read more

Disappointed the first time I tried it(different location.) Tried to give it another try for lunch, disappointed again. The food I ordered was room temp and incorrect, in addition the rice was bland, spicy chicken had a goop of sweet bbq flavored sauce on it without any spice. My order didn't include the limited time lamb and beef combo which I really wanted to try. Lastly the refresher was expensive and overly sweet. Nothing will bring me back, I'm sure they're great when peaking but I'm not a fan of hit/miss spots. read more

Honestly this place is super dirty. The veggies taste like if they have been pre cut and left outside then refrigerated! For a first time tbh never again. read more

The Halal Guys - Chicken is like boiled with garlic - Halal Near Me - Cerritos, California

Just ordered from DoorDash and this location messed up the entire order. I got my money back but they didn't even serve the food up correctly. Lettuce was soggy, no protein and the dish is comes in was half full. What! For 20 bucks per? What's going on. read more

I really try to look for the good at food places, but it was really hard to find here. There are three middle eastern food spots in this shopping center, but some meat, rice, a bit of veggies and white sauce from halal guys was sounding the best. I ordered ahead online and when I went to pick up my order, the vibes in the store felt off and the workers just didn't feel welcoming. On the way home, I had the chicken wings which were pretty good. Crispy, juicy, and had a good little kick of spice. I ordered a regular plate with beef and chicken and jalapeños. The only flavor coming from this plate before the white sauce were from the jalapeños. The chicken was super dry, rice was bland, and the beef was so dry and chewy at the same time. My partner got a small platter with bbq chicken. Her chicken was decent since it was covered in bbq sauce. But the pita bread was stale and raw at the same time? My guess is they were stale and they tried to steam them, but they were just extra wet and gross The baklava just tasted like it was drenched in sugar water and super soggy. It even leaked out of the box. I didn't even take pics because I was so upset with how bad almost everything tasted. Spent a bunch of money just to throw almost all of it away. Should've trusted our gut and went to one of the other two middle eastern spots. read more

We came to buy 3 plates of food on Saturday night, around 9pm thirty minutes before closing. Me and my brother were served our 2 mixed plates by a kind female server with glasses (I regret that I forgot her name but I know it starts with an M). The portions she gave were very fair and her service was great. However, when my parents ordered their plate, they were served by Katie and her portion giving was totally subpar! They ordered a gyro only plate and she gave two half scoops that equaled up to one normal scoop. Then, when my parents asked her if that was the right proportions, she said yes and proceeded to want to charge them for an extra scoop. On top of that, her attitude and service were terrible and unwelcoming. We've been going here for years and it has always been a hit or miss with the employee serving the portions. But to be honest, more times than not we have experienced very skimpy servers. It's too bad because the food is great, but when the servers are trained to be too skimpy, it reminds us of Chipotle and we are just so tired of spending our money here when the portion isn't at all equal to the price. I really hope the owners and management can train all their employees to give a fair, decent sized portions, especially in this economy. If things don't change soon, all business will be going to Kebab Shop next to Target. read more

Went at 7pm Friday for take home dinner. Told the guy beef AND chicken. He goes "oh OK". Does this look like beef and chicken? Even the beef was not really warm or fresh. Waste of money I also asked him if the side of hummus was $4 because that's how much it was last time? Instead of the $1 scoop that they put on top of your food. He responded yes, and then proceeded to charge me $6 for it. BTW this isn't the first time they don't get your order right. My work stopped ordering us meals from there because they always got some wrong.. Not going back for a WHILE... read more

Super disappointed with this Halal Guys. The food and service quality has gone way downhill. First off, the lady who seemed to be the manager had a bad attitude and zero energy. I was the only customer in there, and now I see why it was empty. Secondly, I asked for my white and BBQ sauce on the side got tiny cups and hardly any BBQ in there. The lettuce was big chunks of romaine that tasted spoiled, and the whole platter looked horrible. I've been coming here for years since I live five minutes away, but it's not the same anymore. Thankfully I used my points for a free platter, because if I paid for that meal, I'd be furious instead of just disappointed. Also didn't even receive a receipt. Unfortunately I will not be returning there again, instead I will opt out for another option for dinner. read more

Was torn between this place and the kebab shop, for lunch today. Looks like halal guys won! I ordered the sandwich, interesting they call it that and not a wrap/gyro. I chose chicken as the protein, added hummus for an extra $1, lettuce tomato and their sauce. Very tasty, only complaint it will fall apart at the first bite. I don't know the solution to the bread falling apart so fast, but let's just say I needed a fork to eat the rest of the stuff. read more

The Halal Guys - Sandwich with chicken - Halal Near Me - Cerritos, California

I've heard of Halal Guys but had never tried it. This time we were in the area for something else and decided we would give it a try! We really love this type of food so it was a good healthy option for lunch. Upon entering we were greeted by staff. People were friendly and helpful. I noticed the restaurant has plenty of seating and there was only one other group dining, but we were here really early so it wasn't quite peak lunchtime yet. We ordered a couple bowls; I got the chicken and my husband had beef shwarma and falafel. They cooked the falafel fresh when we ordered, so it was hot a fresh and tasted great! The rest of the food was good too. It came with a packet of white sauce which is mild and creamy but adds a good flavor to the food. Everything was fresh and even my daughter enjoyed it. Nothing wrong with the food but it felt very...simple? I'm not sure what it was but it felt like this was underseasoned or something. It was delicious but it seems that other similar food I have had felt more "authentic" and this might be a little bit more for the American palate. Not really a complaint, but if you like similar places with bold flavors, you might not find those bold flavors here. All in all it was a tasty and healthy lunch. Child approved so that's also a good thing! read more

I love my halal guy's chicken platter fix with white sauce and a side of hot sauce. Unfortunately it is a hit or miss. This time around, my rice seemed like at the end of the barrel so I was getting a crunch in every bite. Apart from that, the customer service was excellent. I just wished I got fresher rice. read more

The Halal Guys - Regular chicken platter - Halal Near Me - Cerritos, California

This location is the best! I've been here a few times now and each time I always leave with great service. My husband and I typically order the chicken platters. My husband gets his with everything and extra white sauce. My order, on the other hand, I get with rice and EXTRA lettuce. We base our ratings of service on how well the staff listens. I always leave feeling extra appreciative that they give me a lot of lettuce and make sure its enough in my container. Food quality is great and the inside is always clean. Staff is really friendly and always seem to be enjoying their jobs which is nice to see. Tip: Order the fries! They're made-to-order and come out so crispy. You won't be disappointed! Good portions, great quality, friendly staff, clean store! read more

There was a lot of hype surrounding the original Halal Guys in New York and when they expanded to California, I heard from a lot of people that it wasn't the same. Granted, I haven't tried the original New York location and don't have it to compare to, but I'd say that food here is really solid despite what everyone says and I actually enjoy it a lot!! During my last visit, I ordered the limited edition spiced sizzlin chicken sandwich and it was SO good! To start off, this sandwich is LOADED and I love how they don't skimp out on the meat here. The meat itself is juicy and flavorful and all the other ingredients in the sandwich complemented it so well. They offer white and red sauce, which I recommend having both of, but be warned, the red sauce can be SPICY if you have a lot of it. Overall, I love the sandwich and for under $12, it's well worth the price given the quality and the quantity of it. I checked in on Yelp and also got an order of free fries (YAY!). I honestly didn't expect much from the fries here but they're actually some of the best fast food fries I've had; I don't know what about it makes them so special but they really stood out to me. If you're thinking about ordering the fries, this is your sign to just do it, because trust me, you won't regret it! My one complaint about my experience is that service is a bit slow. It looked like there was only a single employee taking orders and making the food, so it was understandable, but it's something worth noting if you're hoping to get your food quickly. The store itself has a decent amount of seating and was clean. It is located in the same plaza as Target, so there was a decent amount of parking. Overall, I 100% recommend The Halal Guys and will return again in the future. read more

I ordered a lamb and beef wrap, with waffle fries. The wrap barely had any meat, secretly hidden below a huge amount of lettuce and sparingly sprinkled tomatoes. Moreover, the little portion of meat was like hard popcorn kernels. Dry and hard meat with over cooked waffle fries. Buyer beware...this was a waste and horrible! Never again.if I could give them less than a star, I would. read more

I ordered a chicken and falafel platter. The premade food looked like something out of an elementary school cafeteria. The server put together my platters the same way I remember the old cafeteria lady would. And by old I mean dead inside. The kind of lifer that gives no F's anymore. I was hopeful the food tasted better than it looked. I was wrong. The chicken tasted like it was unseasoned, boiled, chopped, placed in a bag for a month, and reheated. The "white" sauce didn't have much more flavor, but it made my platter edible at least. The place was pretty dirty. I saw the server switching between mopping/sweeping and serving without hand washing. The whole place was dirty. To make matters worse my two platters cost over $40. I'd have let it all slide if it was $10 a plate or something. I paid $40 for cafeteria food and their marketing budget. Never coming back here again. read more

We came to Halal guys for a quick healthy meal, Arish took care of us. We had an issue with hard bread for our Gyros. He took care of that issue with a no problem attitude. He is not the manager, but he should be. He gave great customer service and helpful.. He was friendly and very accommodating. Because of him we will be coming back to this location. Thank you Arish! read more

I ate here when they first came to town several years ago and they were the best Mediterranean here so I used to get my fix there frequently in the beginning. Sadly after panini kabob grill and the kebab shop moved in, Halal Guys is far from good anymore. The service was excellent but honestly each bite strangely tasted like a soft taco from Taco Bell. If you like Taco Bell, no shade, but just go to Taco Bell instead. The sauce is still good but other than that, the food doesn't seem fresh. read more

The team member that helped me was friendly! I was able to customize my plate to my liking with no rush. Half beef and half bbq chicken! All ingredients were fresh and just cooked despite of the time I came. Not to mention I am finally able to get their new dessert, Baklava Cheesecake! Not too sweet just the right amount of nuts and right size. Coming here on a weekend night may be hectic, so be clear we that parking may be busy. Nonetheless, it'll be worth it for the price point! There are lots of seats too compare to the Long Beach location so you can relax and eat your food in peace. read more

To the people working today, thank you for your generosity and friendliness. It has been difficult for my husband celebrating Ramadan to cook with his work schedule.

The Halal Guys - Family Meal Deal - Halal Near Me - Cerritos, California

I used to come here regularly about a year and a half ago. I love the people and I love the food. It was real consistent with many of the other Halal Guys restaurants. I return today and sadly the chicken and sauce just did not have anywhere close to the flavor it used to have. I don't know what has changed, but it is very disappointing. The customer service was fantastic. Although I didn't ask for much other than a simple dish, he was friendly and smiled, and was very courteous which he couldn't ask for more than that. But solely based on the taste of the food in comparison to how it was Sadly I have to give it a very poor rating of two stars. I'll be trying other stores to see if maybe this is a brand wide change in flavor or just a simple mistake. read more

It left a lot to be desired. I got a regular chicken platter, the ingredients on their own were good, but the white sauce kind of ruined it. It left a mayo taste in my mouth that ruined my appetite. The ambience of the place was also lackluster. There's a veil of noise that makes it difficult to hear the staff and the music is at a weird volume that kind of blurs with the noise. I wouldn't come back honestly, it would be more worth it to go to little Arabia if I really want halal food. read more

The quality and value over the years has gone down. They used to fill the plate to brim but no more. Now it's mostly lettuce, tomatoes, lukewarm rice, and white sauce. I came here after 8pm but the quality should be as good as when they open. Where is the love? I remember when I used to go to the original food cart on 53rd and 6th and it was 6 bucks and great! read more

I was really excited about this place saw really good reviews about it , however my experience was terrible. Waiter had an attitude from the get go.
