Highly recommend stopping by you’ll leave with a full belly and a big smile! a great place to. My husband and i we're definitely coming back for a delicious meal 🥙“

“We ordered the mixed combo platter and a beef burger, and both were excellent. The platter had a solid variety — everything was fresh, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. The beef burger was juicy, full of flavor, and honestly better than what you'd get at a lot of big-name spots. This was the best chicken I have ever had.

What really stood out, beyond the food, was the service. The staff were genuinely friendly and welcoming — you can tell they take pride in what they do. The place itself was clean, comfortable, and had a nice, relaxed vibe. It’s a casual spot.

It's always great to find a local Halal spot that doesn’t cut corners. The quality was there, the portions were generous, and the prices were fair. It’s clear this is a small business that puts effort into both their food and customer experience.

If you’re in the area, definitely give them a try. Good food, great people — and it's always worth supporting places like this.“

“Food is fresh & tasty. Staff are very nice too.“

“Absolutely amazing halal food. The best I’ve had in my life. That’s coming from a New Yorker/ new Jerseyan where there’s halal spots on every corner. Extremely polite and helpful customer service which is shocking because of the location, Elizabeth can be rough. The triple platter is my go to.“

“I came in and ordered a Dhoom chicken sandwich and some fried chicken and I noticed they had biryani. In my twenty-two years of living I have never seen biryani on the menu of any halal platter/chicken shack place so I gave it a try expecting it to be mid. They are on par with a few of the restaurants in the area with that biryani and it's actually pretty cheap too at 12 bucks. They put a fair amount of meat in there too, like three pieces with a lot of rice. The Dhoom chicken sandwich was actually fresh and had some good toppings (onions, tomatoes) with tasty sauce. The fried chicken was a little greasy though. Even though Piscataway and NB are full of halal places if you're looking for something unique try these guys.“

“Hempstead location is the best halal on Long Island!“

“My breakfast was great this morning.“

“This was my first time coming to shahs Halal food edison nj The food was very good amazing fresh The staff was very good. I highly recommend the place and the food if they have over five star I will give them higher star but they only have five stars so I highly recommend the Food and the place.“

“Jersey Boys Kitchen is a typical halal place with some extra offerings. I had the chicken platter on my visit and also ordered a buffalo chicken slice. The slice was good, but it was not as spicy as other buffalo chicken slices that I've had before. The chicken platter was good. The chicken itself was a bit dry and when tasted without the white sauce was somewhat bland. All together the platter tasted very good and the portion was as you would expect from a halal place—big. The service was quick and easy. There wasn't a memorable interaction, but my food came out quick and was packed correctly with utensils. All in all, this was a good place to eat with some room for improvement.“

“My new favorite spot for the best sandwiches hands down in staten island. The pastrami was perfectly done and bread made it even better . So was the chopped cheese .oh and don't get me started on the fries omg .. nice and crispy hot and no oil residue whatsoever.. keep up the good work guys . Service was a plus btw“

“Absolutely the best food in Staten Island!

Graffitery’s street cart is on a whole other level. The food is always fresh, full of flavor, and made with real attention to quality. You can taste the love in every bite. The staff is friendly, the service is fast, and the vibes are great.

Whether it’s your first time or your tenth, Graffitery never disappoints. Hands down the best street food in Staten Island—don’t miss it!“

“I ordered Chicken Biryani and Chicken Kabab through Uber Eats. After I ordered , I realized that I forgot to order Nan. So I called the restaurant and ask them that what can I do now. The person(probably the owner) replied , I will add Nan and whenever you visit, give me 2 Dollars. That was really a nice gesture which I will remember and must appreciate(along with the debt on me).
Talking about food, I had eaten many Biryanis in USA but it is one of the best real Pakistani biryani. Kababs were also fresh and tasty. I highly recommend those who want to have Halal and real Pakistani taste, must visit.“

“Humble seems to be the best word to summarize this restaurant. The men who run it seem to have a great rapport with their customers; they’ve been there for 20+ years and it shows. They were kind and accomodating. The food was plated carefully and was pretty taste. My only complaints were putting margarine on my pancakes without asking and the tiny plastic utensils, which left my hands covered in syrup. However both of those go to the restaurant being unpretentious. There’s no atmoshere to speak of but it was clean. I’d eat here again but probably wouldn’t go out of my way.“

“We stopped by for dinner. Everything was fantastic! The owner is so nice and sweet. Grilled chicken is super!! Homemade sauce are so delicious. One of the best restaurant in Springfield! Recommended! 👏👏“

“Excellent food. Ordered Chicken burger, fries and friend chicken. Food was fresh, tasty and warm. More than everything, had a great conversation with Mr. Javed while waiting for my food to get ready, who is the owner of the restaurant and a thorough gentleman. Will highly recommend.“

“This is one of my favorite places to eat when I am in Manhattan. The food is always consistently excellent and the portion sizes for what you pay is very fair. I love both the combination platter and sandwich. I ordered the sandwich this time because I thought the platter would be too much on a hot humid day but the sandwich was perfectly fine. A soft pita was loaded with chopped gyro and chicken with fresh veggies and topped with their white sauce. It was so good and the meats were so juicy and tender. I just love eating it at the cement benches at the tiny park near by and just people watching. It is a real experience and one of the things you need to try when you come to Manhattan and to the MoMA across the street.“

“Loved the food — both the buffet and à la carte options are great. The buffet had a nice mix of dishes and everything tasted super fresh and flavorful. You can tell they use quality ingredients.

The à la carte parathas were hot, crispy, and stuffed perfectly — definitely comfort food done right. Staff was friendly and service was quick too.

Overall, a really good spot for authentic Indian food with great variety. I am from Dallas and whenever I visit I always come here!!“

“Leaving Staten Island, I was still searching for good pizza and ready to find it. We cruised around a while looking for an open place with parking and there was Brother's. It was very tasty. Everyone was helpful and price was fair. Would repeat.“

“A place filled with warmth and hospitality!

David, the manager, along with the entire front desk team on duty at 7:00 PM on Friday, December 19, 2025, surpassed all expectations through their exceptional professionalism and attentiveness. The availability of halal dining options was particularly commendable, allowing my children the freedom to dine according to their preferences. I extend my sincere appreciation to corporate leadership for their thoughtful inclusion of the Muslim community. Additionally, the hot chicken prepared by David was outstanding and greatly enjoyed.“

“The food was delicious, I did not know what I wanted so I ask the girl what she suggested. It was a amazing the chicken was so good . I like healthy food . I will definitely be going back can’t wait to try The gyros“

“After a tasty round of appetizers including tangy baked Fava beans, creamy smooth hummus, baba ghanoush and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside falafel, we feasted on two lamb dishes, one of which was perfectly grilled, and an order of couscous with vegetables. I still remember today how great everything tasted. Service was friendly and efficient and the decor included lamps and accessories imported from Morocco. Portions were generous and they provide containers for the leftovers. You can only eat so much! Highly recommended.“

“Awesome place, food was so good, would definitely go again and recommend“

“Best waffles I’ve ever had. Not sure what they put in the batter but I’ve never had a waffle that tastes as good as the ones here.

All the other breakfast sandwiches are also really good, and the prices are very reasonable. I’ve only had their breakfast so I can’t comment on their other food.

I’d mostly recommend takeout here, yes there is a seating area but it’s kind of small.
