Born and raised New Yorker here so I was super excited when the Halal Guys and opened in Las Gaygas. It was good but as so many other reviews stated, it was not quite the same.
First time we had it, we ordered from Uber Eats. Hubby has never been to NY so I was excited to have him try it. Needless to say, he loved it but I still can't wait for him to try the legit thing.
Second time was today and we're still waiting for the food we ordered almost 45 minutes ago. First, they ran out of chicken so we had to wait for that. Then, when the chicken was finally ready, they realized they didn't have enough rice. The girl behind the counter subbed the rice for fries and kindly refunded one of the platters we offered. Hubby was disappointed since he had ordered extra rice because he liked it so much.
3 stars because it doesn't quite taste the same and for the slow service. Maybe I'm just used to how speedy the carts were in NY and that was with lines that wrapped around the block sometimes.
