Reviews for The Halal Guys in Rowland Heights, CA
The food is good but they unfortunately can?t afford to give you 2 extra pieces of tiny triangular pita bread if you ask for it.... Most other locations don?t do this. The employees but the chairs up on tables so we can?t actually dine in if we wanted to. Read more
Mediterranean fast food pretty much. Though the prices are similar for what you would get at a better place, especially... considering that the plates are mostly lettuce. It was tasty though! Read more
Great value for the price. Very generous portion of beef when I ordered the plate. Employees are also very kind and helpful.
Had a beef gyro sandwich. Generous amount of veggies. Good for a quick byte. The bread wrap is very thick and soft. I opened it... to take a picture inside of it and couldn?t close it again so I had to eat it with the help of a fork , lol. Read more
Update: 2nd visit on 05/13/21 since the last undesirable one. The food was better prepared per customizations but it was cold.... Thanks to the ever failing curbside process that was poorly executed. I ordered a regular beef platter, no lettuce, add onionsand green peppers. Side of limited time eggplant hummus with pita chips. It was National Hummus Day! One thing I'll praise isthey give you a lot of pita chips with this side order but the eggplant hummus portion was not as plentiful to match. All wasdelicious but still cold and you'll see why. For safety reasons, I choose curbside so I don't have to go inside. I hoped theywould get it right this time around. My curbside order was ready to go but it was never fulfilled via curbside! I tapped the"I'm here" button (this is new feature) in the order confirmation email and waited for the food to come out. Waited but no onecame. Other curbside restaurants are really good at this but not here. I had to walk into the store and pick it up. The staffhad no idea. I'm thinking what in the world! They weren't busy when I walked in to get my food. I asked them how their curbsideorders work and they said they hear a ding sound in their tablet to let them know when an order is ready to be brought out tocurbside but the tablet was not ringing the sound or they completely missed it?!? Not sure what it was but that's not good endto end order fulfillment. 2nd time now I've had a bad experience with this store. Sigh. Please pay attention to your orderahead orders! Such as when they are expected to be done and picked up so you can keep tabs. Keep your digital devices on andworking at all times to ensure you are not letting orders age away or leaving customers hanging. I.e. curbside pick up. Alwayspick up your phones. It would be helpful to have designated parking spots for curbside orders. I'm disappointed I had toexperience another negative purchase being that the previous visit to the store was quite terrible. Ugh and Read more
I've been wanting to try this place for a few years and finally did today! Try it with both the hot sauce and white sauce to... elevate it to where it needs to be! I got my order to go, sauces came on the side. I was a bit hesitant to try a white saucethat I've never tried before so my initial reaction was to order without. I had a beef gyro platter. I loved the vibrant coloron the plate, everything tasted nice and clean together. I'd say from a flavor profile it felt like everything was hitting at a7 and then I added the hot sauce last and it hit like 3 levels higher in terms of flavor intensity. It had this nice stingingburn but not over powering. Just enough to fight you without being able to win. I've had Mediterranean food before, so ifyou're familiar with that, it's just gyro meat instead of kebabs so in terms of deviation its not that far of a stretch. I wasinitially hesitant because I didn't know what halal was. I'd say if you've been sitting on the fences deciding if you wanna tryit, go ahead and try it! Lastly, it comes in two sizes think like regular or large. I think me and the girlfriend could havecomfortably shared a large, I think platter is the portion size, and it would have been a nice light lunch that doesn't leaveyou feeling icky and weighed down.

The Halal Guys is a Mediterranean restaurant in Rowland Heights, CA. The brand ?Halal Guys? is always our favorite option for... Mediterranean food. When we heard about this place, we drove like 35 / 40 minutes to come here for Mediterranean food and theydidn?t disappoint us. The ambiance of this restaurant is soothing, family-friendly, and casual. The staff was courteous andfriendly. We ordered Chicken & Gyro Combo, and Beef Gyro. The food was so good. Hopefully, we will come back again. Read more
1st time trying it out. It was okay. Nothing special that would make want you to return for more. It's an experience. Good... price, good portion, a regular is plenty for two. Get a lot of white sauce. 1 pack of hot sauce is all you need. More than thatyou will not enjoy it. Read more
