Got it delivered so I can’t say anything about the actual store but the food was exactly as I expected and have been used to from other locations, solid meal if you’ve never had it before give it a try you can’t go wrong! Be sure to get plenty of the white sauce and some of the red sauce if you like some spice!

I've always loved eating halal guys, but for whatever reason this location just sucks.
Bread is soggy.
Meat is dry.
Rice is flavorless.
Falafel is hard as rock.
Workers are unfriendly and rude.
Also the store always looks dirty, which really makes me wonder if they're taking necessary precautions when making food.
I'd rather take the extra trip to drive out to the Santa Clara location than come to this place again.

It was cold disgusting charging $1.09 for the sauce packet this place has fell off, not worth it and the portion with size of a kids meal for $14 never again so disappointing!!!

They serve a pitiful amount of rice and chicken/beef on the plate for $15. For that price, a half empty plate is not acceptable, when I asked them to fill the platter that I’m paying 15 bucks for, they said it would cost more for “extra protein” and started arguing. I don’t have time to argue about food so I walked. Poor service, tiny portions, and the soda machine is always broken or out of stock. Been going to Halal Guys for 8+ years and they’ve been on a sharp decline for a while now, this place is the prime example of that. These issues aren’t exclusive to this location, the Fremont and Santa Clara locations are also terrible. There are plenty of alternatives for the money, save the headache and go elsewhere.

The workers are so unfriendly. The worker who served me gave attitude and didn’t know what he was doing. He also had a very mean and angry looking expression while serving me. Can’t even crack a smile or say thank you. It was completely off putting. You need to replace your workers.

First time for me and family. Fast service and their white and hot sauce is the bomb. Will be a regular for sure.

Updated review: if you are buying platter from here always buy a small platter. They put the same quantity in both small and Regular. For regular they charge $2 more for the same quantity. The old staff used to be genuine, the new ones are running a scam.

My wife and I ate here the other day... I'm sad to say the quality has gone down. I don't know if they just aren't busy enough anymore or what. This is the second time the gyro was dry. They put a bunch in the steam table and it gets dried out which is disappointing. I'll try it again some day and hopefully it will improve.

It was ok. Price was affordable. But wasn't served as hot as should be. I have had better.

Nice guy at the counter. The food was HORRIBLE. I eat Middle Eastern food often. This was garbage. It was obvious these people don't care about quality, flavor, presentation, etc. The place is dirty and dingy. Avoid this place. If you want quality Middle Eastern food, go elsewhere. I literally ate two bites and stopped, walked out, and ate at a place across the street.
