“This was my first experience with Yemeni food. I ordered the saltah which came with one piece of the bread. I loved the flavor and having the bread was perfect!
I thought the portion size for the price was good. As other reviewers mentioned, you do need to pay for water.“

“Without a doubt one of the friendliest people in Philadelphia serving up some of the best and freshest halal you can find. I go 2-3 times a week and singlehandedly keeps me fed on my days off from work. I cannot even begin to say how great the food and service is as there is simply nothing else like it in Philadelphia. Lamb/rice combo with extra white and red will turn any bad day into a good one.“

“We've only gotten takeout (haven't dined in yet), but their food is fantastic, and it's always ready for pickup so quickly after we call our order in! Great portions, delicious flavors, so many vegetarian options - this is my favorite Indian restaurant by far. Highly recommend!“

“I've been eating from the trucks in this area for 5 years now and Nafi Food Express has become my favorite truck in the area. First, the owners of the truck are particularly friendly and generous to people in this area. Next, I absolutely love their chili chicken over rice. It is extremely flavorful and quite spicy. It's a refreshing and lighter alternative to the heavier foods served by trucks around this area. I can't recommend this dish enough. I also enjoy the $1 naan. I consider it a pleasure to recommend this food truck to people in the area.“

“Really liked the food here. The hot chicken had a nice crispy coating and good flavor, with just enough heat from the seasoning. The gyro was good too. The meat was tender, the toppings were fresh, and the sauce wasn't too heavy.
The portions were pretty generous, and everything came out fresh. The place was busy when I went, but the staff were friendly and I didn't have to wait too long for my order.
There’s a good amount of variety on the menu too, so I’d definitely come back and try something else next time. Overall, really good meal.“

“Some of the best Indian food in the world (outside of India) is located in the United Kingdom and in this Kingsessing restaurant. Usually, Indian food found in the US tends to be served in a very thick, heavy sauce. This place took me back to the UK joints I loved in 2019 and 2024. The chicken curry sauce was a perfect blend of spices and broth which meshed nicely with the basmati rice and naan. This is my first time eating their food but will certainly not be my last. EXCELLENT JOB!!
Please note that I ordered take out so I have no reviews on the restaurant experience.“

“Where can you find a good quality tasty and satisfying lunch that's for less than $10 in town? Penn Halal food truck on 40th and Locust that's where! I didn't even have to ask for hot sauce because it's offered on most platters along with white sauce. (Definitely choose both. )There's plenty of seating on nearby benches and the campus grass too. If the weather is nice it's all the atmosphere you need!“

“I had to leave a review because this place deserves it!
My boyfriend and I ordered the lamb and chicken over rice with the white sauce, and it was SO good. No joke—we literally licked our plates clean! The meat was flavorful and tender, the rice was perfectly cooked, and that white sauce tied everything together.
The milkshakes were another surprise. They weren’t overly sweet like a lot of places make them. They were rich, creamy, and actually tasted like the flavor we ordered instead of just sugar.
The salad that came with the rice was super fresh too. It had crisp lettuce, thinly sliced cucumbers, chickpeas, sweet peppers, and hot peppers. You can tell they care about the quality of their food.
The restaurant itself was also incredibly clean, which made the whole experience even better. It’s always nice to eat somewhere that’s well-kept and spotless.
What really made our visit stand out was the customer service. The husband and wife were both so kind, welcoming, and genuinely made us feel appreciated as customers.
The prices are great for the amount and quality of food you get. We’ll definitely be coming back, and next time I’m finally trying the banana pudding because it looked absolutely delicious!
Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for amazing food, a clean restaurant, great prices, and owners who truly care about their customers.“

“We’ve been coming here for years. The menu has changed, but the quality has not! From chaat, to lassi, to their desserts… we recommend all of it. One of our favorite places, and we can use uBerEats now so it’s even more convenient!“

“This has been my favorite halal cart in the city for some time. If you live in the city you know there are bad carts and good carts, this is one of the best. Lamb and falafel are excellent. Service is quick and it's surrounded by perfect places to sit and eat. You will not be disappointed here. He isnt open too late, it varies with weather and time of year, but get there quickly after work. 5-6 pm he is usually still there.“
“Best halal I have ever had!! I orded a lamb Gyro and the pita was hot and crispy. Big portions and the white & hot sauce was delicious. Food was fast, and there were way more beverage options than other halal carts. If your going to a food cart this is the one you want to eat at.“
“Not sure if I'm writing the review for the right location. I ordered the lamb gyro and it was very good. Very flavorful and fresh. If you're in Philly, please give these carts a try. Hardworking people making very good affordable food.“

“The best halal food in the city. Been there twice already and plan on many return trips. Also, pretty cool that they named a dish after my office, Bresslergroup!“
“for 9 dollars, you get a HEFTY ratio of meat to rice. some platters are 6-7 dollars around the city but you definitely feel like you get way too much rice and not enough meat.
was pleasantly surprised by the amount of lamb!! very tender and flavorful also was ready in like a minute. 10/10!! ask for extra sauce (i forgot)“

“First time here and the food was delicious! Hubby and I both had the chicken and lamb gyro and also ordered the onion rings and fries. Onion rings were tasty and not greasy at all! We will go back and try other dishes too.“

“I grew up on homemade Middle Eastern food made daily by my parents, so I’m very picky when it comes to authenticity. I’ve tried a few places that just didn’t hit the mark—but AL SHAM in Chalfont is a straight 10/10!! They serve real Arabic bread (pita)—not tortillas disguised as pita like you find at other places—and their homemade Lebanese toum (garlic aioli) is the real deal. One bite of their falafel wrap instantly transported me to a boardwalk in Lebanon, overlooking the Mediterranean—complete with fresh bread, Lebanese pickles, and those perfect pickled turnips. The meat is 100% Halal and you can taste the quality. Flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with care. **This is the kind of spot you want to support. We’ll be back again and again—do yourself a favor and try them ASAP**“

“Tried them out today because I saw JL Jupitor review them on youtube! We got the Szechuan beef lunch special, the shrimp with garlic sauce lunch special, and one egg roll. Everything was made fresh and it was soooo good. I LOVED their egg roll especially but forgot to take a picture. We came when they opened at 12pm and they were already busy. They made our order faster than I expected which was great. I also love that they include a soda can with the lunch special. It's a great value for the price!! We will definitely be back to try more off of the menu.“

“Got a large catering order from Spicy Marsala for an event, Shiblu was very accommodating and prepared a great variety of food for the event which everyone loved! Their Samosa's in particular are excellent and their sauces for the samosas, naan and tikka marsala are amazing, looking forward to trying more items on their menu!
Their dessert naan (Peshwari Naan) is also a great finishing touch to a meal or a great late night snack“
“The halal gyro express cart at the corner of 13th and chestnut is by far the best halal food I’ve ever had. The chicken and rice is out of this world and the white sauce is the best I’ve ever had. Keep up the good work!!!“

“This place was a short walk from my hotel so I came here a few times. It's named Ed's on the outside. They have halal options and the food was great! I tried a variety of stuff from here and each one did not disappoint. If you want a good halal cheesesteak come here. It's always busy and filled with college kids. The staff is also nice!“

“This was our first time here since live down north and we loved this place. We came here after spending the day nearby at Adventure Aquarium. Delicious Afghan food, and the service was great. Great ambiance. Cosy. My dad was happy to find prayer rugs there and a place to pray. This place is a hidden gem.“

“I have recently become a frequent customer of Al Baraka and Falafel king next door. The market has quality meat selection for great prices and I prefer it to other grocery stores. The owners are some of the kindest people I have ever met. Abu Tata is always generous in helping me pick products! Abu Said has gone out of his way to make me a special order of knafeh (kunafa) which has become my new favorite dessert in the world! I have since tried it from other shops and restaurants but no where makes it as good as Al Baraka! I recommend everyone stop in and shop around and try something different! And definitely try the knafeh because it is out of this world!“
