Reviews for The Halal Guys in Costa Mesa, CA
I ordered the combo sandwich and some of the beef was harder than bacon bits, which is unsettling as far as how old and... overcooked that meat was. Part of the pita was hard so it must've been exposed overnight. The falafel was underwhelming. Will be making the drive to Papa K's, instead, next time. Read more
Portions have changed since they opened. Meat servings are now half what they were so it tastes like a rice salad with meat... scraps. Doesn't taste the same with so much rice and lettuce and little meat. They need an double meat option now Read more
1st time there, at beggining it didn't looks likes it would be such a nice place. Quick service, really tasty, good portions,... nice staff, fair price, such a nice experience, definitely I would be back! Read more
I love their Falafel platter and their Combo platter. The rice is rightly cooked and the meat is tender. Not to forget their... sauces, white and red both have their distinct taste that make the platter more flavourful. Note: Know your sauces beforegetting them on your plate. Read more
I've not been there in a long while. Seems they've cut the portions in half. Before leaving, I took a look in the bag and asked... why there was salad, and was told that's the way we serve it. Got home only to discover that it was about half iceberg lettucesalad. The stingy amount of meat and rice will not fill one person..... maybe a child, if they're not hungry. Read more
I ordered the falafel platter and was not disappointed-delicious! It?s just the right amount of food. The service is quick. The... place is clean. Prices are totally reasonable. Just be careful of that hot sauce. It is hot! It?s not an initial heat but boydoes it build. Lol. Get the white sauce to help cradle you as the red sauce punches you in the mouth. Definitely coming backand trying the wrap. Read more
Pretty awesome for a quick semi healthy meal. Usually go with the combo platter sans rice (empty calories). Easy on the red... sauce because that stuff is fuego. 4 stars because the parking here is an absolute nightmare if you go at lunch. Read more
It's always fun and yummy. It'll never be a good as New York's best but it's the closest we can get here in So. Cal.
