Popular American Halal restaurant joins the Forum Food Court at Caesars Palace
Today the legendary New York City staple, The Halal Guys, opened its first location on the Las Vegas Strip, located inside the Forum Food Court at Caesars Palace. The Halal Guys at Caesars Palace marks the first halal restaurant of its kind to open inside a United States casino resort.
“The team at Caesars Palace is proud of our partnership with The Halal Guys and to be the first casino resort in Las Vegas and the country to offer their nationally recognized, healthy halal food,” said Caesars Palace Regional President, Gary Selesner. “Together we are participating in a growing food trend that allows us to better cater to our increasingly global clientele.”
Perfect for lunch, dinner or evening cravings, The Halal Guys are open late into the night to cater to night owls looking for a post-OMNIA Nightclub bite. The menu at the new Caesars Palace location features the signature sandwiches and platters with a choice of chicken, beef gyro, chicken and gyro combo or crispy falafel- all seasoned to perfection. Meals are made to be customized with toppings, smooth hummus, smoky baba ghanoush, golden fries and more. Guests can drizzle or drench their meals with the tempting white sauce or spice things up with the famous and fiery hot sauce. The restaurant also offers delicious baklava for dessert.
From humble beginnings as a New York City hot dog cart in 1990 to a world-renowned restaurant chain, The Halal Guys continues to be one of the most coveted quick-service eateries. Synonymous with incredible demand and a fan base of millions of diners from across the globe, the new Las Vegas location is prepared to attract the same popularity as the east coast originals, which are known for their long lines that span city blocks. With quality Halal-certified meats as well as vegetarian-friendly dishes, The Halal Guys offer something for everyone. This opening at Caesars Palace marks The Halal Guys’ second location in Las Vegas.
With a location that draws from the energy of the casino floor, the nearby Forum Shops, and the Race & Sports Book, The Halal Guys bring a new buzz to the already bustling Forum Food Court. The 14,900-square-foot Forum Food Court is also home to Smashburger, Di Fara Pizza, Earl of Sandwich, Tiger Wok & Ramen, La Gloria, Romaine Empire and Starbucks.

About The Halal Guys
The Halal Guys grew from its humble beginnings as a food cart on the streets of New York City to a global icon known as the largest American Halal street food concept in the world. The food cart was first parked on the corner of 53rd and 6th Avenue in 1990 by three like-minded men from Egypt who came to America in search of a better life. When the founders noticed many Muslim cab drivers in New York City were looking for a place to buy halal food in Manhattan, they created their first food cart that quickly grew into a leading destination for American halal fare. The Halal Guys were ranked the most popular food truck reviewed on FourSquare in 2013, the third most reviewed restaurant on Yelp in the United States in 2014, and the #1 fastest growing restaurant concept on Restaurant Business’s Future 50 list in 2017. In 2014, The Halal Guys began expanding its authentic halal cuisine from the food cart into restaurants and now operates 49 locations within the United States, South Korea, and the Philippines.
