“I rate this Restaurant a 10 out of 10 I absolutely loved the lamb chops. I also got the chicken plate with hummus a side of cucumber yogurt. The skewer of filet mignon was delicious. I devoured the whole plate. if you are looking for a chill setting with delicious fresh Mediterranean food, then I recommend this restaurant for you.“

“In my time in the Greater LA area, I've stuck with trying mostly Asian eateries as those are typically the spots I feel the most comfortable with. But with the diverse food offerings in the Rowland Heights area in particular, I felt inclined to try something new. With that said, a friend recommended me to try Halal Guys after having previous experiences enjoying halal meats.For this experience, I ordered Halal Guys off of Uber Eats on a Monday night to avoid the traffic on the 60 and chose to try their Beef and Chicken Combo Platter which was around 14 dollars before tax. And from that point, I waited for about 30-40 minutes for my food to arrive at my place. Upon arrival, the food was bagged in layers which kept the food warm which was a nice touch.Opening the bag, each item was given in a foil pan with a plastic lid which helped keep the food inside warm without making the food soggy. And with that, it made receiving the food that much more impressionable. Opening the lid, I was quite surprised by the amount of portion given inside. About 70% of the bowl was filled with large quantities of beef and chicken. Because of this, the dish was meat dominated and ended up being quite filling. The tomatoes, lettuce, and four pieces of pita bread took up the remaining area and prevented the dish from tasting too meaty. For last, the rice that layered the bottom was given in good portion too: not too starchy, and not too scarce. In all, the large quantity given was well worth the expenditure at 14 dollars in the Rowland Heights area. There was so much given, in fact, that the single combo lasted two meals! Price to portion ratio? Very good!The taste of the food was also very impressive! Starting off, the turmeric and cumin-seasoned rice was quite light in texture and was seasoned generously. This allowed the flavor profile of the rice to give the rest of the items in the dish a baseline to work off of. For next, the lettuce and tomatoes tasted fresh, just like you would imagine them to taste: watery, crunchy, and a tad sweet. As for the pita, the texture was soft yet dry, which helped to absorb the moisture from the added white sauce and hot sauce. Furthermore, the bread interior had a hint of what I identified as olive oil which helped the bread taste a bit doughy and subtly salty. As for the meats, the chicken was my favorite of the two as the pieces inside were lightly seasoned with black pepper which tasted heavenly with the flavor of the rice. The chicken's texture was very soft despite the fact it was fully cooked, making each piece melt in the mouth. Although the beef was good as well, it was more on the dry side and tasted much heavier. This could be in part because the meat was sliced thinner, causing the meat to dry out faster and for seasoning to dominate over the amount of area well on each piece.The dish was fine by itself. But including the packaged white sauce, I found the overall taste even more memorable. Tasting like a lighter ranch, each component of the dish was able to attain a greater cohesive texture and creamy taste. Achieving a balance like this is very difficult when you add sauce to a dish, leaving me to crave more of their famous large packets of white. On the other hand, I found the hot sauce to be too spicy to the point that it dominated over any texture or flavor of the food. On a scale of 1-10, I'd say the spice level was close to a 6. Definitely eat some pita to counter the spice should your spice tolerance be low.For this experience with Halal Guys, I would argue Halal Guys deserves a 5 star rating hands down. The portion size was very large for the price compared to most other eateries of this kind and restaurants in this area in general. For the price, the quality was definitely there, having better meat quality than many places that charge almost double the price. Although I found the beef was over-seasoned and on the dry side, it's not to say it was bad by any means. For the next time I return though, I would opt for Chicken Platter instead. In all though, great portion of“
“I usually get the chicken kebab plate or grill chicken plate but today I tried the lamb plate.I like lamb but it’s usually a bit too gamy for me.. this lamb was beyond extraordinary! Not gamy whatsoever! The flavor was immaculate! This has changed my life forever! Try it for yourself and I promise you won’t be disappointed!“
“Fresh Bakery is my go to place to have a light and delicious breakfast, brunch or light dinner too.I really love this bakery and how everything is very fresh. Whatever you order, it is from the oven to you. Sometimes, I have to wait a couple of minutes until my order is ready.Anoush always encourages me to call in advance to have my order ready by the time I arrive. The ladies who are working there are very sweet and friendly.I love their cheese borek, cheese and spinach, lahmajun, cheese & Soujuk, maneish, beef borek and chicken borek. Their Dolma is so yummy and really delicious. They have also frozen food (kibbe, and Manty)They have also many desserts and Armenian cookies. I really love their dates cookies. It looks like a little crescent or mini Croissants and filled with dates, soooo good.It is a hidden gem in Covina with excellent service and fresh baked food“
“Easily the best middle eastern food we've tried yet! Ate here twice in a week because it was so good the first time. The workers were so generous and the food came out quick! Highly recommend for those looking for food late at night too. The pita and hummus combo is to die for!“
“Came here for a late lunch. Service was prompt. We had the falafel side, chipotle chicken wrap, and gyro lamb plate. Everything was delicious! The portions were large and plenty of meat and veggies, so it feels healthy. Would definitely go back.“

“Came in today about noon ish, the owner or person working was very nice. My did take a while but that was expected as they cook everything to order. The food wash exactly what I was looking for. The chicken, rice, salad and hummus was delish!! I'll be back again“
“THE. GARLIC. SAUCE.Okay, I fell in love with this place for the sides. But the garlic sauce made me loyal to this spot. It’s fresh and raw so you’ll either love it or hate it.I’ve tried Mediterranean cuisine right by my house and another place and the garlic sauce can’t compare. The sides are also delicious and healthy.All the meats I’ve tried are good as well but if you’re into options on side dishes, you’ll be pleasantly surprised.Vegetarian options: Most of the sides are vegan or vegetarian.“
“I drove out of my way to eat here today. I could have gone to a closer Mediterranean restaurant that I frequent often but instead, I opted for pitas to go. I made no mistake today and I am very proud about it because my chicken plate was so good! I added feta to the salad and everything just came together perfectly. Went home happy and fed and thanked the owner for the meal! I'd eat the chicken plate again and again.“
