    Combo plate
    Desiree K.

    It's been about 10 years since I stood on the famous line on 53rd and 6th for some chicken and rice, smothered in white sauce. Back in the day, I'd round up a group of friends and drive into the city (or hop on the subway) just to get dinner. I have such fond memories of never being able to finish a plate and feeling absolute bliss after eating. When I heard this place opened, of course, I had to pick up some food and put it to the test. I crossed my fingers that it was as good as I remembered. And it actually was. The meat and rice was exactly what I remembered. It was like I went back into time. The only thing that would have made this a 5 star review was that they neglected to give me my white sauce. This may seem small but it's really what ties it together. I didn't even think to check before I left because the two bags were tied up like a booby trap and I could barely open it up to make sure all the food was there. I didn't think I had to ensure they'd include the famous white sauce that they clearly advertise comes with the food (and yes, I checked). Other than that, delish!

    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 !!

One had eaten and taken out from here before and liked it, so we called, didn't need a reservation, off we went. At about 5:15, give or take, we were the first patrons there. It's a lovely large space, warmly decorated with tables and some banquettes. We chose a 4-top kind of right in the center! Comfy chairs, btw. The menu isn't strictly Greek or Lebanese or Turkish, kind of a combo of good choices from those cuisines. We started with an appetizer called Tinos Artichoke. Very interesting, served with small warm fresh wedges of pita plus a cup of deliciously seasoned pita chips. It's a dip of mashed artichokes with Greek yogurt, sun dried tomatoes, parsley, garlic, feta. S tasty! It's a great portion to share among several people. My friends each ordered the chicken soup with vegetables for appetizers. Quite a nice sized bowl for the price; I love avgolemono, if that's what it was (I didn't taste it), just didn't feel like having soup. They both liked it very much and then they were pretty full! I ordered two appetizers for my meal - Symi Shrimp and Grilled Halloumi. Excellent choices, and they worked really well together as a meal! The 2 slabs of perfectly cooked halloumi are served on a bed of romaine lettuce and some threads of carrot. The shrimp are small, very lightly breaded and deliciously seasoned; menu says garlic, lemon, but they were reddish so I suspect maybe paprika as well or cayenne + paprika (not hot but not bland), shredded feta sprinkled liberally on top. I'm a big eater, but after the appetizer I wasn't able to finish my meal; today I reheated in the toaster oven for a lunch treat! One friend had just the Symi shrimp as her meal; the soup had filled her up and she also took some home. Our other friend had the chicken shish. This came as a really well-balanced plate, with plenty of cubes of chicken, rice, and veggies. We ALL had to-go bags! Appetizer portions, just based on the appetizers we were served, are ample for sharing. Didn't stay for dessert, as I had a train to catch back into the City. When I'm out in Bergen County again, I'll think about coming back. If you live in the area, GO, It's very good and not exorbitantly priced.

I hadn't had mediterranean in a while and I'm not head over heels for the place near me so I wanted to try something new. This place seemed decent enough. I ordered a greek salad and hummus with pita. There were varying gyros, another greek salad with chicken, some platters including the falafel platter that GF orderd. My salad was wonderful. The ingredients were fresh and that dressing was lovely. It was a salad I actually enjoyed instead of regretting the entire time I glared at my coworkers who ordered real shit with envy. The hummus was also very creamy, authentic hummus with a slightly different taste than I am used to but head and shoulders above any store bought bullshit. Everyone else said good shit about their food. I tried one of GF's falafel from her platter and it was really good. My only complaint is for $24 or whatever it is, i would expect more than a few falafel balls and one side. Kinda a rip off. But everything tasted really, really good.

Sad to say, after being loyal customers, this place turned us off tonight permanently. I placed a large anniversary dinner order by phone, including tahdig ($12). During the call, I specifically asked if the rice came with tomato and onion and was told no it comes with the tahdig that I ordered. So yes it comes with the order. I was also asked whether I wanted the gheymeh on top or on the side of the tahdig. I chose on the side. When I got home, the order didn't match what was discussed: The tahdig wasn't traditional rice tahdig like me or my wife have had countless times. It was more like this brownish, sheet-like, crumble with a few flecks of rice on the crumble, but not crispy. Not Persian tahdig. The gheymeh was missing entirely, despite being discussed on the call. The tomato and onion that I was told were included were not there. The fesenjan had only a few pieces of chicken. The ghormeh sabzi was okay, but pretty underwhelming in flavor. I called politely to clarify about the missing tahdig (for next time) and was told someone would call me back. No one did. When I called again an hour later, the same person who took my original order responded in a dismissive and accusatory tone, unilaterally escalating her tone and voice immediately, almost angrily accusing me of daring to call, and told me that the tahdig does not come with gheymeh, and tomato and onion aren't included either. (This is the opposite of what I was told when ordering). She repeatedly interrupted me, talking over me, instead of listening or trying to resolve the issue. We've been coming here since moving from Southern California a few years ago, whenever we felt homesick and wanted some Persian food. The food has always been....OK....nothing like Persian restaurants in Toronto or Southern California, but we continued ordering out of nostalgia and lack of other options. However, this experience today, incorrect information, missing items, no follow-up, and then, the way the situation was handled was our final turn off. Disappointing, especially for what was meant to be a special occasion. We won't be returning, nor will our visiting Persian family or friends.
