    A bit slower than the city and some of the employees looked like they don't want to be there. Clean and convenient. Very similar to what's in the city without the street dust on your food. I get it, some people like that, but not me. Definitely will continue to go and support this local store.

    I have been eating Halal Guys for over a decade. It was a pilgrimage when I went into NYC, it was a rare treat after going out in college, and it was a decadent lunch out of my midtown office. Halal Guys at 53rd and 6th is longest-running and best-known halal food cart business in New York. It can't be stated enough how far the Halal Guys reach extends. It's rare that 1 singularly perfected dish can unite the Manhattan construction workers, the J.P. Morgan investment bankers, the out-of-town tourists, the Parsons fashion students, and all the city's Uber drivers - let alone from a near 24/7 food cart. It's a classic NYC stable and the line is reliably ever-replenishing. Halal Guys is in the process of leveraging their brand and extending their empire via a franchise platform. Their aspiration is to become the Chipotle of Middle Eastern food. Whether they can retain their original NYC food cart magic, still remains unproven. I attended the Halal Guys Yonkers grand opening and while it may not retain the same street food cart magic, I thought it was a fairly reliable homage to my old memory. Their operations were clean, service was fast, portions were plentiful, and the packaged prepared sauces were familiar. The proteins remain muted in flavor. The falafel remains tough and dry. But overall, I thought this was a fair representation of the franchise brand. I was hoping to get a Halal Guys shirt and pillow during their grand opening celebration, but hopefully I can get one next time!!

    Great place for takeout. The entrees are big enough for you to share with someone else. The white sauce makes the average quality falafel and beef taste much better. The baklava is super sweet and moist. It's worth trying, but don't expect this to be as good as the original Halal Guys in the city

    Small Chicken & Beef Gyro Platter - wi the Hummus as well. Very good

    Ordered a few times so I even downloaded the app now. Believe it or not this is not an unhealthy meal. We like the small combo platter of chicken and lamb which is halal certified. Simple rice, lettuce, tomato and the meat. I'm big into ingredients so I don't use their white sauce anymore and have made my own along with hot sauce. Things like soybean oil steer me away although I used to down the platters in it when I was younger driving to the city to get 53rd! Their baklava was nice and tasty as well. Good service for order with pick up. Quick and easy! Happy you guys are in westchester now. Just look deeper into the additives in your sauce !!

    Why start charging for olives and jalapenos? Now a small plater will cost $15 that will not help you last sorry.

The two times I've been in, they've brought out samples of thier menu items to try. I've ordered various things on the menu: hummus, lebneh, falafel wraps, falafel platters, baked kibbe platters, the green bean side, etc. All have been amongst the best Lebanese food I've tried. I want to expand and try more things, like the chicken and beef kafta. If you have questions just ask. Certain platters come with different items. Some rice, some salad, etc. Thier pita is fresh and delicious, and comes in different sizes. They have a decent sized dining area for dine-in, and the take-out area is right as you walk in the side door. Here you will also find a grocery area with Lebanese essentials. The selection is sizable, and offers items you won't find in a regular grocery store. I stocked up on spices, and coffee. Prices are reasonable, and portions are generous. I will return every opportunity I get.

Definitely did not disappoint. All the food here is sharable and for 4 people it was enough. Sadly could not bring it all with us, but would have if we lived here. From what I remembered, we ordered the Lamb Shank, Sumac Fries, and Kouda Bi Zeit. All delicious, all notably the favorite. Probably the reason why I remember these out of the rest of our order. Drinks were also delicious. We ended up ordering each other's favorite drink. Mine ended up being the Mediterranean C vs the Once Upon a Time. Overall, highly recommend!

During…read moreour brunch visit for 3 on May 9th 2026, I experienced the first significant allergic dining reaction of my life. Rather than immediately posting a public review, I contacted management privately because I believed they deserved the opportunity to address the situation professionaly. Their initial response was that they would review the incident internally. After I followed up, they specifically offered to send me a complete ingredient list for everything we ordered so I could review it with my healthcare provider. I accepted that offer but, the ingredient list was never sent. Months later, there has still been no meaningful follow-up. My frustration isn't about demanding compensation or proving what caused the reaction. It's about customer care and accountability. Making promises that are never fulfilled leaves the impression that guest concerns only matter until the bill is paid. Once our $471 tab was settled, the commitment to help simply disappeared. The food and atmosphere may attract people, but how a restaurant responds when something goes wrong is what defines its hospitality. Unfortunately, based on my experience, the follow-through did not match the promises made, and I can't recommend a restaurant that handled a serious guest safety concern this way. Its NYC, 1000s of restaurants will charge less serve higher quality ingredients and treat you with greater hospitality, and this place is located in midtown east.
