Gyro and chicken platter full to the brim and delicious as always. Came with extra complimentary white sauce and hot sauce. More pita’s and protein than expected, very grateful :)

Ordered in app a Sandwich and received a bread with only bits of meat, nothing else. Brought back to the store, and the staff told me that by default the sandwich only comes with bread and meat. If I want veggies, I need to specifically “make a note.” I told them I ordered it a hundred times with the same options and this was the first time I got something like this, but they refused to admit it was their fault. And they even told me that I have to pay to get the hot sauce with the sandwich.

In the app, the sandwich page clearly states that “We add lettuce, tomatoes, and your choice of toppings and top it off with our famous white and hot sauce.” And there’s only options to remove them, which means they are added by default. The staff there that day just really don’t know what they’re making.

What more ridiculous is that when I back to the store, they are making sandwiches for the in-store order customers. And those sandwiches were made in the correct size, much larger (more meat and stuff) than I received today, which was the similar size I ordered before.

Amazing service, just the whole atmosphere was very welcoming and the food is some of the best authentic halal food I’ve had. Definitely recommend trying the lamb from here if you haven’t had lamb before

Consistently delicious and satisfying every single time. You can taste the freshness in every bite, from the crisp vegetables to the perfectly cooked meat. The portion sizes are incredibly generous, offering fantastic value for the price. Highly recommended for anyone craving a fresh, flavorful, and hearty meal.

Mixed reviews here. While I do like the naan and their hot sauce, the meat is lowkey mid. A few days ago was my first time trying it, and while it did taste pretty good, I wouldn’t say their taste justified the price in contrast to other halal spots.

I went with a couple of friends and the worker was speeding through our order which was sorta nice until he proceeded to mess up on my friend’s order twice (he ordered too bowls, and both of them were messed up).

Nevertheless, despite this I would say this place is fine once in a while when I’m in the area but it’s not a major go to spot.

Good taste and quantity of the food. I like American halal guys better than the one we have in Canada. The taste is different!

I usually eat at The Halal Guys in Amherst twice a month, but today was honestly the most disappointing visit. I ordered through their app — a Chicken Regular Platter with extra pita(didn't get extra one) and extra chicken for about $15.

What I got didn’t match at all — the platter had half side small portion of rice and the other half full of lettuce and The chicken was okay, not dry, tomato,onion and green pepper is ok fresh but the portion was very small even after paying for extra chicken. It really felt like a lettuce platter, not a chicken platter.

The New York City Halal Guys tastes amazing with great portions, but the Amherst location really needs to fix their quality and quantity.If Amherst location is franchise you guys have to take care of this if not you will keep loosing customers one by one

Honestly, you can get a much better chicken platter at Chipotle right behind — for just $8, you get good chicken, rice, and plenty of fresh vegetables with way better portion and taste.

I've been eating here for a while, but I'll have to quit. Almost every time I've ate here for the past year, me and everyone else who I've bought food for have ended up sick and with stomach issues, and each time it's after we've eaten from this place. The rice is stale or not cooked thoroughly, or maybe it's the dye they use that doesn't suit the system. Sometimes, the chicken has an odor to it, maybe raw? Used to love this place, whatever they're doing recently isn't working. The price is also a problem. $13 per platter, just to end up sick immediately after? Nope.

The food is always really good. The hot sauce is actually spicy with good flavor. Everyone I'm in the area I stop for a chicken and rice bowl.

Avoid at any cost. If I could give 0 star i will. Look what they are giving customers for 13$/plate. it's just disgusting how cheap they are. Their portion keeps getting smaller every time we have gone there. Spend almost 200$ and look what they gave us. The food quality and taste is ZERO!! COMPLETELY ZERO!!! We will not buy food from these people anymore. They are a rip off! Do not go there and pay 13$ for this (look at the pictures) Also Service is non-existent. A huge huge disappointment!! I have warned you everyone. Totally Avoid!!!

I went to the halal guys restaurant yesterday and I was extremely disappointed with the portion sizes they give there’s barely any chicken yet they fill up the whole plate with rice. It’s like paying for a bowl of rice anyways I ordered my plate and I take a bite and I find a pretty big BONE inside the chicken which I could’ve swallowed by mistake or choked on. I am extremely upset

I came out surprised by the saleswoman's actions. She put the remaining rice, how little it was, because the big pot was finished. She did not go and bring new rice, but put the old rice in my plate. It was little and dry, and all oil. The amount of chicken was very small. My plate was lettuce and tomatoes. I paid 14.56 for lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. This is sad.
