Halal guys fell off imo. Food hasn't tasted as good as it once did for a while now.
Still though, it tastes better at the actua
I think all the halal guys spots are using beef instead of lamb now which sucks.
NYC wise though, sammys halal is my spot. It's one on west 4th. That spot comes through after you been drinking. They got one in Jackson heights as well. I'll take them over the halal guys any day of the week.

Have two spots in Chicago. Tried one off the rec of a coworker she said it was bomb in NY. Not so much when I went, it was bland as **@K nothing I'd be going back for. I much rather go to Pita Inn. Which is dripping in flavor .

Man dude that said NT hates everything was on point. Halal guys is fire. Its not a gourmet meal or anything but for 7 bucks its that goods
That white sauce is just too good whatever the hell it is.
A lot of mayo in that sauce, which is why it tastes good.

The only time Halal Guys has been amazing to me is when I was on the brink of blacked out drunk at 4 AM in NYC. I've had it sober twice and wondered if I was eating the same thing everyone else keeps hyping up or some bootleg cart

I found the one in LBC and Ktown comparable to NYC.
I guess the vibe of being in Manhattan scarfing this down makes it better than it is.

I never tried the food there. Somehow my tongue did end up inbetween the cheeks of a thick Colombian mass.

I tried it this weekend and had the opposite reaction. The food was pretty bland to me but I may have expected more due to the hype around the opening. I eat combo platters from food trucks at work that taste better.
100% agree about the spicy sauce. I got extra and it still wasn't that hot.
