The Halal Guys — Restaurant in Santa Clara

S/o to the staff at this location! Super friendly, nice, and great customer service. I will be back when I’m in the area. Google isn’t always accurate with the restaurant hours so I told my friend let’s rush in case 10pm isn’t the right time. We got in 7-9 minutes before closing and still got a quality meal after the gym and we weren’t rushed and they didn’t have an attitude because we came in minutes before closing- Google said 10pm we came minutes to 9:30pm.

Halal guys is just soo good. The chicken is delicious and moist, rice always cooked well, and let’s discuss that white creamy sauce- fire! I love to find healthy options after a good workout and it’s hard to find stuff after 9pm sometimes in Sj with things closing earlier. I plugged in Google and it pulled up this location- I had no idea there was one in this plaza and thankful I found it. They have a new veggie option too with beyond meat or impossible meat, I forget which one. They also have a new eggplant hummus too. So veggie and vegan peeps, go check out a his probably limited eats for y’all.

My bowl was delicious and filling and I was so hungry I finished the large bowl about 96%. If you’re really hungry get this one. After a killer workout this supplied me with all the gains and...

A quick stop with a few friends to grab a bite that was long due. Last time that i had food from their location was in LA and a good year or so ago. It was definitely all worth it reliving the moment with the same dish that i had ordered then.

The Chicken platter with their magic secret sauce is pure bliss. Juicy chicken, olives , lettuce and tomatoes and some jalapeños along with the bread make it a phenomenal dish and you end up craving for more.

The location as well is in a perfect setting though they could do a bit more with the outside seating which i am sure would get better as places open and start receiving more traffic as things get better with the pandemic.

An absolute recommendation and worth...

Disclaimer: I rate highly. Most of my reviews are 4 and 5.

Ok let's get to it. Halal guys is like the Chipotle of middle eastern food. You have schwarma/wrap style and bowls/plates available here.

You have your protein choices of vegetarian (falafel), beef, chicken AND THEN you have red rice and lettuce.

I usually just get a bowl/ plate with beef schwarma, rice and lettuce with added white sauce ( which alone tastes like mayo idky but on the food tastes really good) . It's semi fast food meaning that it's probably not the healthiest and service is really fast. Highly recommend if you want something tasty and semi healthy.

If you like spicy food, make sure to ask for their red hot sauce, ...
