“A nice spot, rather informal but still fun. We split the lamb glaba, which was fairly good, and the fahsah, which came with large flatbread and was really good. You do have to pay for water. Our server was helpful and easy to talk to. Overall I'd say its a fun ethnic spot to visit. They did some weird stuff with the bill- I think they charged the credit card tax ahead of time on everything regardless of payment method, so be aware of that.“

“They had a special deal going on all day today, and I Got a free chicken gyro. I live close by and i had been thinking of trying it out ever since it opened up and finally went today since it was free, and have to say I was impressed. It was delicious and well prepared. Quick service and like I said, free, lol so couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you guys that were out there working & preparing food for free all day! I will be sure to tip a little bit the next time. ??????“

“This was a pleasant find on Christmas Eve, made single-handedly better by our waiter Fathi. Everything was delicious and his hospitality was unmatched. We had way too much to eat and can’t wait to go back.“

“I tried Nafi's over a year ago but I can't believe I forgot to leave a review. The food options are so much more unique compared to the other halal carts near 33rd & market. Chicken biryani and butter chicken are great. The owner is also a very nice guy.“

“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 would give this place an infinite amount of stars if it were possible. When me and my friends lived around here, we loved hitting this Halal cart up on Friday nights. We even made the occasional pilgrimage there once we lived in separate places around Philly.Majit (and later Salman) always whipped up the freshest food, had a smile on their face, and were glad to talk with us. Salt of the earth.If you like Halal you owe it to yourself to get in front of the Fishtown Planet Fitness and order a lamb/falafel combo platter with your sauces of choice.“

“Been coming to this lunch truck for 2 - 3 years. I'm impressed at the consistency with the flavor & quality of food. It's good every time. I stop by every week & it's pretty quick. Even when it picks up at during lunch rush & dinner it's not a long wait consider the line.“

“I got the falafel platter and the fries and my partner and I split them both for dinner and afterwards we were soo full and satisfied, it was extremely delicious and one of the best falafel platters we have ordered thus far. Really nice staff as well and super fast service.“

“The platters are GENEROUS. They should rename this place Crown King Kareem. Delicious platters. I like the chaat too. Burger was eh. The platters are where it’s at my friends. Don’t sleep on the platters. The price is so cheap and the rice to meat ratio is the reverse of what you would expect. You’ll be looking for more rice in your platter, just drowning in meat. You might get sick of how delicious and plentiful the chicken and lamb are, but I don’t!“

“Best halal cart in the city. Yo can trust me, I am very picky about this kind of stuff. Food is always fresh and huge portions, complex flavor, tender meat and the owner is beyond nice .he takes pride in his food and cart. He even once gave me a free plate when I came by too late when he was supposed to be closed. Great people great food!!“

“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**“
“I used to live in Philly. I bumped into this place and WOW the food is amazing. I now live in Harrisburg Pa. and when I'm craving I get upset because I'm so far away. My wish is that they open a food truck here. Still best halal food I've ever tasted.“

“This place rules the late night! Fast, friendly, well priced, and delicious. Hot chicken slider with slaw on it was awesome, spicy tenders with fries were great. Need to try the falafel next.
I love late night dining after a show and this place saved my night in a sleepy Philly.“

“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 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!“

“The food is amazing..now I have been frequenting 2 trucks since the early 80's and the service has never change, the Food has changed slightly, but for the better. He has the chix pea salad that is amazing...I always get falafel over rice with lots of salad. My favorite. My kids get shrimp and chicken over rice...we Love it..forgot to me tonight the cooks are super friendly. Going hete is like going to the Barbee shop or nail salon..they listen and converse with you. Great food and Great Conversation 👍🏽 👌🏾 😀 😋“

“I visited the truck during my lunch break to pick up lunch for me and my mother. We both got the chicken over rice with the salad. The man in the truck was very nice and personable. The person in front of me ordered six plates, and he served them promptly. When it was my turn order, he greeted me warmly and served the food fairly quickly. The food is delicious and the portions are great, the meal comes with a drink as well. it's a plentiful serving because I only ate half for dinner and had the other half the next day for lunch and it was just as delicious. I think overall, you can't beat the delectable taste with the price. 10/10“

“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.“

“When the mood for halal hits, this is my go-to spot. I will not hesitate to skip past the dozens of options in center city and venture over to eat here. Friendly service. Check. The food is always spot on, I typically get chicken and falafel over rice. The portions are big, and he’s generous with the sauces. Every time I eat here I think, I gotta hear more often. Big 5 stars!“

“Ordered 2 weeks in a row! Food is absolutely amazing. Wings are so yummy and the shawarma is the best! The order was perfect, exactly what we ordered
Love, love,love
On a side note, we ordered through door dash. On the porch, there are 3 tables with a huge note stating “for deliveries”
The dasher put our order on the ground right in front of our door, so when I opened the door, the whole bag fell! No common sense! Not the restaurant’s fault“

“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.“
“Went to Khusbu today and got the Kala Bhuna along with Beef Tehari. The food me reminded of my mom's cooking back home in Bangladesh. It's pretty rare that you get to see Bengali food sold anywhere. I decided to come where with my friend the moment I saw the items. The owner was really good and personable he gave us Malai Tea on the house for us. I recommend you to come here for a taste of Bengali food along with Indian food if that's what you prefer.“

“Visiting family in Philly and wanted to try a halal Philly Cheesesteak. Had some In The Uk with varied quality. Saad’s is way way ahead. Big, juicy, very very tasty. Reasonably priced, staff are lovely. Place is set up like a diner and kept very very clean. We are here a few times during our trip, tried others but had to come back. Eat j. And takeaway service is good. My recommendations. Cheesesteak with mushrooms, kofta hoagie. Had a chat with Saad, nice guy. Looked after us.“

“Great value. I had the chicken on rice w/ salad & hot sauce. Couldn't try the white sauce due to a milk allergy. The chicken, rice and salad were fresh. Platter came with a canned soda for $8. Plenty of drinks to choose from. Def would return.“

“I used to work down the street and got the falafel over rice 4 times a week. It’s been two years since I left my job in Roxborough and have NOT been able to find anything close to these guys. Their food is amazing. Genuinely nice guys. I hope they are well!! Give them a visit.“
