“Love this place there food is so clean and tasty. Best chicken spot I have been to. I have been to almost all of them from Dave’s to hotties to Breds. But this one by far is the tastiest and most juicy. If you like your chicken juicy and crispy this is the place to try. Try them out asap if you havnt yet.“

“Excellent food amazing service“

“A beautiful spot with authentic food and delicious flavor. My favorite were the Samsa triangles, filled with delicious meat. My wife loved the “big chicken plate”, the portion was amazing and went really well with the naan. My kid loved the skewers and naan.“

“The guy who makes the Manti and the Samsa wasn’t there. That made me a little sad but our food came out really fast. It was a very homely atmosphere. The food literally almost caused me to ascend. The food was incredible. I have no complaints.“

“Halal spot ; We were on the way to South back home and stop by this restaurant for our light dinner.
I think it’s family owned and the prices are pretty reasonable. The staff were very friendly, and assisted us in ordering. Everything turned out good, they were super nice providing us extra condiments, etc. Be sure to select your spice level wisely cuz we ended up in tears, but we still enjoyed it though.

We hope that we can visit this place again next time we are on the way back from north
** hoping for a new branch near San Clemente soon.. we will be your regular customers“

“Man! Arda and Nizar are the best! Not only friendly but up and beyond! They explained the whole menu for me without breaking a smile! Man I’ve never had this good of a service at Dave’s hot chicken! I will bring my whole team here to eat out’ thanks guys!“

“Excellent food and fast service!“

“JR at the mission viejo location was great. We rarely are able to all eat together as a family and we went there for dinner. We had an issue with our app but with his great customer service he made our family day. Thank you! Would come back again.“

“Really good love the place“

“I highly recommend that you stop to eat here whenever you can. Amazing five star food. Staff is amazing, welcoming and friendly and helpful. Amazingly clean restaurant too. You will not be disappointed unless you pass them by and don't stop in.“

“I first ate at The Halal Guys on the street in Manhattan and immediately counted it as one of my go to places to eat. The red sauce adds the right kick to the combo platter, which is almost a two-meal entree. Great portions, great flavors, and worth the fair price.“

“We came in on a Wednesday around 6:45. We waited about 20 mins for a table. We started with the roti and calamari both were delicious. For entrees we ordered the nasi goreng fried rice which was my favorite dish. Highly recommend! The hainan chicken was good too. The sauces it came with were subtle, I was hoping for more flavor since the fried rice was so flavorful. Our table was wobbly and it was a bothersome while eating but a server came by to refill our waters and noticed the table was wobbly and pushed it against the wall for us and that fixed the issue.“

“food is really good . specially dosa“

“This place genuinely has the best Indian food I’ve ever had. Their lunch buffet provides a massive array of incredible options, fit for anyones taste. Everything was fantastic, but I HIGHLY recommending trying the biryani. Not to mention the unbelievable mango lassi to pair with the meal.

The buffet is also clean and I was able to get seated immediately on a weekday afternoon.“

“Excellent Indian food“

“I love this place and honestly besides the prices being a little steep, I like how everything is prepped and handled. I love how they don’t haggle me for having my bike inside the building compared to other fast food places.

Kid-friendliness: If you treat them right, they will too.“

“The service was warm, attentive, and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The food was absolutely delicious—flavorful, well-balanced, and perfectly seasoned. It was salty enough to bring out the taste, but never overpowering. You can really taste the freshness of the ingredients in every bite. Everything we tried was clearly made with care and attention to detail. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a satisfying and authentic dining experience. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“They serve authentic Hyderabadi biryani, but only on fri-sun. I tried first time and def on my next visit to Irvine I will go this place. Also , first Indian restaurant in So cal which serve rumali roti . Must go place if you are in Orange County

Vegetarian options: Hyderabadi biryani and paneer butter masala“

“This place turned out to have one of the best fried chicken I’ve had in OC. It’s very crispy and delicious. The coating is just right and delicious. The chicken wrap and slider was about $7 which was a great deal. The place looks quite well maintain and service was great.“

“If you're looking for a top-tier all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ experience in Tustin, I Can Korean BBQ is a must-try! From the moment we walked in, the service was attentive and friendly, with the staff making sure our grill was always clean and our meats were cooked to perfection.

The meat quality here is excellent—everything was fresh, well-marinated, and flavorful. The premium cuts like the beef brisket and short rib were melt-in-your-mouth good, while the pork belly had the perfect balance of fat and crispiness when grilled. They also offer a great variety of banchan (side dishes) that complement the meats well, and the kimchi was spot on!

What really stood out was the ambiance—modern, clean, and spacious, making it a great spot for both small gatherings and big groups. The ventilation is solid too, so you don’t leave smelling like smoke.

For the price and quality, this is one of the best KBBQ spots in the area. Whether you're a seasoned KBBQ lover or a first-timer, this place will definitely satisfy your cravings. Highly recommend!“

“if you haven't been here, you've gotta try it! had some Masala for take out and the aroma through the bag was making my mouth water! best Naan bread I've ever had! hidden little gem!“

“The food is very good. I love the potato falafel, honey glazed chicken kabob, rice and chicken tikka masala. Even the mild spicy is very spicy! Watch out. The sautéed vegetable is so good and flavorful.“

“Fast, efficient service with 2 meat options within chicken besides others. The pomegranate chicken is our favorite. You can mix and match the options including pita or bowls or rice. Plenty of sides and flavors. We like their spices. Staff is very friendly. Every order comes with a side of lentil soup at no cost. Good options of falafel and pita bites for kids. Good place for lunch. All options halal.“

“I found this place on a whim and I'm glad I did. I got the lamp rack "kabob".This was a plate of lamb chops and I got hummus and salad for my sides. Yum! Everything was so well seasoned and the proportions were great. I will definitely be going back and I absolutely recommend.The people there were really nice.“

“It’s bad the lady is so rude, she don’t know how to handle the customers“

“I've recently had the pleasure of indulging in one of the chef's mouthwatering burgers, and it was an absolute delight from the first bite to the last. I’ve been wanting to try a new burger place and this restaurant had my keen interest. As soon as I received my food i was immediately struck by how the flavors were perfectly balanced, with each ingredient shining through in every mouthful. The juicy patty, cooked to perfection, paired impeccably with the fresh, crisp vegetables and the irresistible sauce that tied it all together. I went up to the counter and asked the employee at the front desk if i could see the staff who made my burger. Why…it was just a kid. A kid who made a difference in my life. I gave him my compliments and asked him to come work with me, but the young gentleman refused. “I don’t do this for the money..” he says so fondly “I do this to advocate for the chefs all around the world..” Chef Ramsey would be proud of this adolescent advocate. If only i had gotten his name…“

“One of the most sub standard experience! The food had all the same curry base, made from canned ingredients. The staff was unhelpful and did not care at all. The seating is narrow and cheap. The portion size of s horrible. The taste of the food is awe filling because it’s probably microwaved rather than cooked properly. Horrible experience. Stay away! There are better Indian restaurants.“

“Quality meat that’s not frozen. Good ventilation. Prompt service.“

“I went to Mozambique last night for the first time again in years (to see Pearl Jam tribute band!) and the entire staff were so amazing. Everyone from the valet, hostesses, and meal service team were all so lovely and kind. And the food is delicious!“

“Delicious! Loved your vegan plate and mint lemonade! We’ll be back.“
