    Chicken Schwarma bowl with white sauce
    Matt R.

    I had Halal Guys deliver lunch to an office for work and it did not disappoint! The food was fresh and filling. The sauces are great too. I made a chicken Schwarma bowl with lettuce, tomato, rice, and white sauce. Yum!

    Regular Platter
    Luis A. P.

    Personally, I love this location and have not had any problems with the food or service. Although, sometimes there can be long lines and waits since it's close to a university and bars. This is also because this location isn't too big, but it is always kept clean. The Halal Guys is my number one go to for quick food. I always get the regular combo platter. For the most part, everything is cooked and seasoned well and you get your food immediately. They are generous with the meat portions which I love. You truly get your money's worth in my opinion. Whenever I'm super hungry or after a night out this is the place I'll go. The manager at this location is also super friendly, and the staff is always professional. I would recommend downloading their app as you get points every time you order which you can use towards getting free food and drinks!

    Free meal card not honored by acting manager, Safi.  No expiration.
    Ian H.

    This free meal card was provided to me by an employee which the manager recognized his name and refused to honor the card. I think that's just bad business.

    Chicken & Beef Gyro Platter
    Jessica D.

    Honestly, the food here has never LOOKED super appetizing to me, but once I tried it, I was a fan. I've only ever tried the beef and chicken platter (more like a bowl). I like to add hummus to mine, it gives it some more moisture. Otherwise the bowl can be a little on the dry side. The white sauce is very good and the hot sauce is good too but very spicy (for me), so my advice would be to use it sparingly across the bowl. I've never sat inside this location - always gotten to-go and been happy with the quality. The best part of this meal is the portion size - I am always stuffed after eating halal guys. The pita bread is great too.

    Love this place, and the kind employees whom work here. What a great group of folks, and such a welcoming environment. I must say Halal Guys hires well, and it shows very much so at this location. Fast and friendly service, and my goodness is this one clean too. That alone makes me even more enthusiastic, to return and dine on their delicious foods. The chicken platter is my usual, but occasionally I'll go with the beef one. Both are exceptional. Along with salad, vegetables, and white sauce it's quite healthy. Do be careful with the hot sauce though. If your first time, one or two stripes max. Good sides too, but I'm content with the fresh meats and vegetables. There are soft drinks, or you can get a bottle of water. This is very good power food for lifting as well.

    Gyro platter with white sauce and BBQ sauce!
    Cassie W.

    Tastes just like the NYC street cart I remember from 53rd and 6th! The gyro platter is my fave. Always get the white sauce AND bbq sauce. Yes, they charge if you want extra white sauce. YES, it's worth it! The red sauce is like "from hell" spicy. Be careful with that stuff. Great... Now I'm craving Halal Guys...

    Chicken platter
    Kathy T.

    I have been numerous times and everything has been consistent aside from the price. I noticed that the price went up though :( it used to be 18 dollars FLAT for two regular platters, but now its 21 dollars for two regular platters. However, the portion of the food is still plenty. I feel like I can split the regular platter into two meals!!! Service has always been very friendly and fast! I typically get the chicken platter, and it is moist! Not dry at all! I love adding the white sauce and red sauce, because it adds more flavor. BEWARE of the red sauce, it is SPICY!!! I believe its made out of ghost pepper....well thats what the worker said! Overall, great place to get a big portion of flavorful food for a good price!!!!

    Chicken Platter
    Julia D.

    I'm sure the staff knows me by now because I'm obsessed. I literally come at least once a week for a chicken platter. It's nothing fancy, but it's more than just fast food. The halal guys is definitely my go-to for a quick delicious meal! Make sure to load up on that white sauce; something about it will keep you coming back!

    I went to SimSim with my Ukrainian father and Indian mother shortly after they opened. I grew up on…read moreUkrainian food, and middle eastern cuisine is some of my favorite, so my expectations were high. Lord, this place did not disappoint! We decided to share everything and eat family style. We ordered 3 Ukrainian dishes: Holubtsi (cabbage rolls stuffed with lamb and beef mixed with rice), cabbage stuffed varenyky (pierogis), deruny (potato pancakes) and the lamb kofta. Each dish was fantastic! The holubtsi were soft and tender in the center, but didn't fall apart when you cut through them. The varenyky tasted like what my family made. The deruny were thin and crispy - my favorite way of making them. And the lamb kofta was absolutely scrumptious. The rice and sauce it came with were divine. Our all-in-one hostess and waitress was also the manager, a young woman from Ukraine who was incredibly attentive and endlessly friendly. She embodies what the hospitality sector is about. The owners are a couple - a Palestinian husband and Ukrainian wife. The latter seems to be the chef de cuisine, while the former runs the front of house and went out of his way to connect with us and introduce us to his son, who also works at SimSim. TLDR: Even if you don't care about supporting two different war torn countries, the food here is both delicious and authentic. I can't wait to go back and eat my way through the rest of the menu!

    This place probably deserves a 1 star rating based on the food but the restaurant is decent (big,…read moregood seating, clean bathrooms) and the person serving us seemed to understand that the food was underwhelming. Going back to the food, it was poor from beginning to end. The grape leaves tasted worse or at least as bad as some canned grape leaves. It was not fresh, you could tell from the rice inside and the way the grape leaves broke when you bit into them. The fattoush salad didn't seem to have enough parsley and mint and it was most a lettuce salad. The adeni tea was plain weird. It didn't taste like tea at all. The kabsa felt like rice had been mixed with curry. I guess that's why the guy was asking how spicy we wanted it. Typically that is not a question when ordering kabsa. The lamb chops were not good either. The meat was tough, as was the meat for some of the other dishes. It's unfortunate because we were excited to try this place ever since we saw that it was opening. There was maybe 1 other customer when we were there and I guess it makes sense now. Hope they improve or else they are going to struggle.

I saw Haraz on Instagram right around the time they opened, and the photos and videos of the interior and the food are spot on. The designers knew exactly what they were doing with the color pallet, lighting, and furniture to design an open, welcoming, and relaxing space reminiscent of the Middle East. You order at the counter either through a tablet or with an employee, and if there is a line you get a few extra moments to gaze into their pastry display that also features my favorite pistachio milk cake. It makes a lovely, light dessert or midday treat. Another pastry-specific highlight is their bee bites. It looks like a bubble waffle but is a toasted bread with cream cheese and honey. They are busy pretty much at all times of day and on the weekends especially. Morning coffee, early afternoon, and even late at night with large groups hanging out and enjoying coffee. Haraz is a chain/franchise, but they know what they're doing to make it feel local and like something special. They employees are always polite, patient, and helpful.
