★★★★☆ I dont know what others below me are talking about, or I must just have low standards. When I am craving a burger, I have two options 1) go to the meat store, get meat, wife make patty, i pull grill and make it my self or 2) call this place, talk to some white college girl and get a burger in 10-15, but really 30 mins. The props to this place is the owners keep it clean as a whistle. If i ever were to drop a fry on the table, I will follow the Sunnah, blow it, and eat it. The only complaint I have is that the white girl staff in the front be rotating more than a hotdog on a hotdog rolling machine and they are not the smartest of the bunch. And change the TV channel, matter of fact put remote so customers can flip through. Posted on July 28, 2016 |

★★☆☆☆ I would not return here. It's halal american food, but that does not mean it's quality food. Overpriced and low quality. Food made me sick last time. I will not be returning anymore. Posted on January 3, 2015 |

★★★★☆ So awesome. After we got back from KC, I needed a pick me up. Chicken tenders from pizza 786 did the trick. Based on the attention to detail in their decor, I would guess all their dishes are as awesome as the tenders.
On a side note, last poster complains abt frozen gyro meat. Dude, there is no such thing as fresh-cut gyro. Its all factory processed and frozen. Posted on October 20, 2014 |

★★★☆☆ I tired their gyro pizza and really wasn't that impressed. It appeared the gyro meat came from the frozen hala gyro slices sold in stores. Nonetheless, the pizza itself was about average. I will certainly try other toppings to see if that's better. Posted on May 19, 2013 |

★★★☆☆ This is probably the 5th time I've been to this place in the past 5 years. I always enjoyed their subs & pizzas but today was different. I ate a cheeseburger and a hotdog. The burger patty was tasteless and it was made on thin slices of bread (not on a bun). The patty did not even cover half of the bread, though I purchased the 1/4lb burger instead of the regular one. The hot dog tasted OK but the again the roll was stale & it crumbed up even before I picked it up to take the first bite. I wish they would go back to the better quality sandwiches they served in the past. Posted on March 4, 2013 |

★★☆☆☆ Everything from the Pizza to the cheesesteaks to the burgers here is consistently mediocre.
Not the worst place, but I would never go out of my way to eat here. Posted on February 9, 2013 |

★★☆☆☆ I drove to Pizza 786 from Germantown, MD ( roughly 1hr drive) with my entire family. We ordered pizza and wings. Both of which were good. Some of my family were leaving and I went outside to say goodbye to them. I told the person working at the counter that we will be right back and that we're still eating. We were gone for about 2 minutes. When we came back one of the waitresses was throwing away our food! Before she threw away everything I told her to stop and I was able to salvage two slices of pizza.
We politely asked the owner to see if he could do anything and he said it wasn't his fault and insisted that it was the cashiers fault.....The owner would not take responsibility and continued to blame us. In his words, "You are 100% at fault because once the customer walks out the door, they (referring to the waiters) clean the tables." This was completely unacceptable and rude, even though earlier they were quite friendly! This was a shock to us! The owner said he would make us some wings but only this time and that again, it wasn't his fault rather 100% ours. We did not take the food and walked out. It was a huge turn off for us and most likely, we won't be returning. Good food should not overshadow good manners and service. Posted on September 11, 2012 |

★★★★☆ I've been going here for past 2 years. It's our halal food emergency joint. It's good because it's usually the only choice you have while you are on campus. Their pizza is good, cheesesteak (don't get everything). Posted on May 7, 2012 |

★★★☆☆ This place is very convenient to students at UMBC/CCBC and living around the area of Arbutus and Catonsville area.
The Price for the food isn't OVERLY expensive and it isn't DIRT cheap either. It's decent and OK, depending on what you buy.
The Pick Up deals and Specials really help in saving money.
The Best Food from this place I can say is the Pizza, and in my personal interest, the MEAT LOVERS.
The Subs, Wings, etc. are not bad, but compared to other halal spots within 10-20 miles from Pizza 786, I would much rather go elsewhere.
In all honesty, I go here quite often due to it's convenience from the UMBC Campus, but that's it.
If I had to decide to what halal spot I wanted to go from my house, this place would definitely not be anywhere near my top choices.
Then again, the food is decent, the Pizza is the best in any halal spot I've been to in the Baltimore Area, and the environment is very friendly and welcoming. I actually personally know the 3 Brothers who own the place and they're pretty chill and easy to get along with. And the Location is in a pretty good area and this place gets a lot of customers. They have two TV's, very good size and ESPN is usually on unless if there is an NFL (Ravens) game going on, well known Soccer Match going on, NBA Basketball Game, or based on request they can put a channel on.
Definitely recommend people who have an open mind to try out. It will at least be worth going back to! Posted on February 19, 2012 |

★★★★★ This place is AWESOME!! I've been eating zabihah food in this area for quite some time, and I can say that it falls into the unique category of being one of the best American food places in this area (along with RJs and Romas). In terms of location its the most convenient for those traveling from Baltimore since its close to UMBC/BWI airport. In terms of food I usually eat their burgers/subs, which are excellent and overstuffed. The meat in general has a good quality to it which makes anything made with it pretty delicious. The staff is pretty friendly and personable since like a lot of restaurants its a family owned business. I return here pretty often even though I'm in Montgomery County, and recommend it to everyone I know living in the Baltimore area. Posted on September 16, 2011 |

★★☆☆☆ Tried too many times wanting it to be good. Nothing is cooked/seasoned properly and must be slathered in sauce to taste good. Giving two stars because once the pizza was good, but every other time, either the sauce or cheese was bland. How can you make cheese bland?! Posted on April 14, 2011 |

|
★★★☆☆ The owner are 3 brothers. 2 of the brother are very nice but the oldest brother is a jerk. Has no sense of customer service. Food is good but that one specific owner ruins the experience. Posted on March 30, 2011 |

★★★☆☆ The wings and the Gyro sub were both very tasty. I needed lots of hot sauce for both. They have a lot of other items on the menu. I will come back and try some other stuff. Posted on October 24, 2010 |

★★★★★ Great food with overstuffed subs and plenty of options on the menu. Posted on July 2, 2010 |

★★★★☆ Nice place. Verbal assurance that meat is Halal. I was a little surprised to find out that they serve ham in some of their pizzas which is a negative. Posted on June 17, 2010 |

★★★★★ My favorite Halal joint when I lived in Catonsville/Ellicott City area. The subs are amazing and over-stuffed and the wings are delicious. The brothers are really nice too. Posted on September 23, 2009 |

|
★★★★☆ Ma'Sha'Allah, very nice place (both decoratively & food wise). The owners (all 4 brothers) are very nice and professional (especially Omar). Prices are good. One of the best burgers around Baltimore/DC area. I highly recommend it to all my friends. We had them cater Pizza for my son's birthday party (chicken & meat) very good (best to heat while still hot). Posted on June 2, 2009 |

★★★★★ Assalamu'alaikum. This place ROCKS. They must've improved on their items since the last review because their philly cheese steak sandwich is dripping with juice, definitely not dry. Cheeseburgers are also a delicious mouthful, again juicy / cooked to perfection. The 3 brothers who run the joint are masha'Allah very friendly and devout Muslims as I was referred to the place by some elders in the community. For the extremely particular, they will even offer to show you a reciept from their meat distributor! Hence I trust that the food is zabihah halaal. Posted on November 9, 2008 |

★★★☆☆ food is OK. the subs and sandwiches come out really dry though...they need some kind of sauce, but their gyro sauce just doesnt cut it (its too thick). annoying little charges for standard items like ice (!) and refills on fountain drinks. cheap prices, but the food is nothing to rave about.

★★★★☆ Good prices; convenient to UMBC students; not quite pizza roma's, but the chicken wings are better... Posted on October 9, 2007 |
