“Omg it's been so long i haven't been here, but their pizza is the best and the all the foods that he has it's delicious especially the salads. I will recommend anybody to come here and sit down and eat a delicious pizza🍕🤗😉☺️“

“This spot was amazing for family sized trays. We got the half tray chicken and lamb combo + half tray of rice. This was the most meat ive gotten at a halal place and the half tray was more than enough for 9 people as we had leftovers. I highly recommend these trays for huge gahrerings, they accommodated within 30 minutes.“

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

“My breakfast was great this morning.“

“This is one of the best chicken PLACES I ever been to and I've been in many, great chicken, very clean, employee's are awesome, and they handle your FOOD in a very sanitized way, one other thing they do it right in front of you, and there pizza is also good all around it's a great place to get your FOOD, I guarantee it, 110%,plus tax“

“The Gyros here are amazing. I'm not sure what they're doing with their pizza dough, but the crust is probably the best I've ever tasted, and the food is reasonably priced as well. All the guys behind the counter are friendly and patient. It's 24 hours so show up whenever you're hungry and they'll have something ready for you.“

“The best chicken and gyro“

“One of the best halal spots in NJ“

“I grew up in NYC so I’m no stranger to halal carts. Since I’ve moved to JC (which I know is only across the river, but the food scene really is different), I have yet to find my go-to halal spot… until now! I paid $10 for a chicken over rice. The chicken was so juicy and they were very generous with the chicken and sauce. So delicious but also so dangerous that I’m so close by“

“Amazing and tasty food!! Great service and great prices! High quality meats and chicken, all halal, with proper certificates!“

“First and foremost. Do not order from Uber eats. I saved about 10$ against Uber pickup order, and about $20 from delivery not including tip. The saved money went to spending more here. You pay more for each item on Uber eats.

The food was fresh greatly seasoned (could use more season on the jerk chicken gyro) and the falafel was fried near perfect.

The service was great. Called in the order took my time getting there in about 10 minutes and was ready immediately. I wasn’t expecting it to be but I was happy.

The strawberry twist to the banana pudding was a great hit. Just wished for a little more strawberries. I wished I took photos because all of the food was visually pleasing. The food was so good I ate a container of Jerk chicken over rice with extra meat by myself. Within 45 minutes. I usually can’t eat like that in one sitting.

Also wished for more white sauce dipping cups for the amount of falafel that was bought.

Otherwise it’s a great gem. I hate to say it but I live next to a few restaurants and did not want to try it because of the feedback. As much as I am used to a $10 plate, here was money well spent. Cost about $50 2 drinks, jerk chicken Gyro, 10pc falafel, jerk chicken over rice platter with extra chicken, and a banana pudding.“

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

“outstanding! the best there is on Staten Island! I've been eating his food fir years!“

“I went for dinner and decided to try the Wednesday special menu, and it was a total hit! Everything was fresh, perfectly cooked, and had that classic touch everyone loves. Very worth it for the price. We were taken care of by Tony, who provided us with truly special service from the very beginning“

“first the place was homey and clean quiet and peaceful second when i first got the platter my first thoughts were hmm i wish they gave me more rice that being said once i ate the food i realize that this was PERFECT QUALITY EVERYTHING. the meat was not just SEASONED FOR COLOR BUT SEASON WITH FOREIGN SPICES i tasted a little bit of some type of curry i could see and taste the seasoning they put in the rice was so flavorful almost its own star what made me rlly say this quality was amazing was the fact that the cold amazing slice fresh tomato were absolutely high quality the fact that the tomatoes were that fresh and the salad was perfectly preserved the white sauce was amazing per most hala spot but there hot sauce wasn’t to spicy it was good enough for my stomach to not act up it came with pita bread which is a nice touch and was a reasonable priced my full rating would be 4.8 honestly“

“Stopped by and tried the fish gyro and the chopped cheese. The chopped cheese was okay—I’ve definitely had better elsewhere. The fish gyro was good and fresh, but not quite the best I’ve had either.

The service was fast, friendly, and welcoming, which I really appreciated. The restaurant was also very clean, and everything looked well organized.

Overall, it was a good experience. I’d come back to try some of the other items on the menu.“

“Mr. Falafel on Halsey Street is absolutely phenomenal. The food is fresh, flavorful, and truly delicious every single time. The falafel is crispy, the portions are generous, and the service is wonderful. The staff are kind, welcoming, and make the whole experience even better. A tremendous spot in Newark and an easy 5 stars.“

“Wowww so good and fresh! I got a chicken & salad platter along with a lamb & chicken pita. I ordered through a third party app and the food was still so warm. The chicken is soo nice, fresh, thick, and juicy. I love the sauces. Boyfriend ate the pita too fast to show a picture haha. Never ordering from any other halal again.“

“I luv it I would recommend Juicys💕💕💕“

“Had a great experience at Shah’s Halal Food! I ordered the falafel gyro and it was warm, fresh, and absolutely delicious. You could tell everything was made to order, which made it even better. The service was excellent from start to finish—Nupur was especially kind, attentive, and made the experience feel welcoming. Great food and even better customer service. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Lovely auntie makes the best samosa chaat I’ve ever had! Literally so mouthwatering“

All the Staff is kind respectful and professional
Been ordering from few months

“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.“

“Whenever I see ajib at the cart I’m always buying. He’s the best !! Always gets my order right and very generous proportions which is so rare now. They’ve increased their prices but the quality is still good if not better. The workers all live close so the food is clean (and by that I mean their hands are clean) and I know it’s fresh. I’ve never seen ajib without his gloves, he changes them often. Get your food HERE“

“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.“

“Westside Shawarma is back with a vengeance. Never have I seen so much demand for a small food spot. Literal posts on the internet asking about this place. I was excited to see the G.O.A.T return, and more so with a proper shop. I got so excited, I ordered two chicken platters and only managed to finish one. Warmed it up two days later and it tasted just as good as when I got it. Great to have you guys back!“

“I experienced very good service from this location one of the very few places which use a pizza oven and they make it fresh they gave me as much Sauce as I required the only problem was that they had a few scraps on the floor but otherwise nice people good service and better food only one bathroom tho“

“​I got the sliders and tenders, and they were cooked to absolute perfection—juicy on the inside, perfectly crispy on the outside, and packed with flavor. The spice levels are incredibly accurate, and that Dave's sauce is pure gold. On top of the amazing food, the service was fast and the staff was super friendly.“

“I was going to take a trip to Brooklyn to eat me some food in a restaurant out there but then I decided to stay here so I wanted to see where can I find some good lamb chops and I punched it on my phone and I went to the place and I'm not sure who's giving the bad comments but whoever it is don't know good food I ordered lamb chops which came with rice and salad and it was amazing I have eaten lamb chops at a more pricey place much much higher in price and you only get two lamb chops and I spent the arm and the leg for it and it wasn't that great but this place the lamb chops was excellent the way the service the weight of the waitress everybody was great I didn't have to wait long to order and it was a lot of people in there but if you expect them to get something in 5 minutes then obviously you need to stay home because no restaurant that cooks food. Should take 5 minutes to cook it it has to be longer so I really really enjoy myself that he only downside to it was that I wish I could have eaten more but I had no room for it because I would have ordered another plate of lamb chops but I'll definitely go back again and the waiter or the service person his name was Val v a l excellent excellent guy they're all friendly the staff is really really good there and you get more than enough food so I highly recommend it and I give it five stars“

“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“

“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.“

“Arguably a top 2 halal option in the Jersey City area, you can swap it from 1st or 2nd. They changed the lamb seasoning a few months ago, i did not like that but I ordered today and the lamb taste like how it originally did. 6 stars is i could give it that“

“ok yo shoutout to the gentleman who served me. super friendly, definitely makes every customer that walk in feel welcome. food BANGED and prices CHEAP im really just passing thru Newark but wowww that mix platter checked all the boxes. portion was hugeee. shoutout this spot 💪“

“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!“

“friendly Atmosphere good service nice perfectly cooked portion sizes and food makes you feel like Sunday dinner with family“

“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“

“I came here specifically for the HalwaPuri this morning, and it absolutely did not disappoint! There is nothing like a traditional breakfast to start the day right. The Puri was perfectly fluffy, light, and not too oily—just the way it should be.
The star of the show for me was the balance between the sweet and savory.

The Halwa had the perfect level of sweetness and a great texture, while the ChanaMasala (chickpea curry) and the potato bhaji had that authentic, spicy kick that makes #DesiFood so addictive. Mixing the sweet halwa with the spicy gravy on a piece of hot puri is a total #Foodie dream!“

“This is a hidden gem! They Serve fresh fruit juices, Breakfast All Day… one of the best fried chicken wing and fried shrimp spots in the area. Collards cabbage Potato Salad are all delicious.. Oh yeah they now serve fresh fish and veggies prepared your way (including steamed)Love this Local Gem!!!“

“friendly Atmosphere good service nice perfectly cooked portion sizes and food makes you feel like Sunday dinner with family“

“This is absolutely the best eaterie in Halsey Village. It's a regular weekly stop for me and they always remember my name and what I order which by the way is simply the best chicken and rice etc., around. The staff are friendly and welcoming in an atmosphere that is open and relaxing.“

“Great service, friendly staff AMAZING food.“

“Absolutely loved the sandwich at NYC Style Gyro Jersey City!
The bread was fresh, the meat was perfectly seasoned, and the sauces added amazing flavor. It was one of the best sandwiches I’ve had in Jersey City. The staff was friendly and the service was quick.

Highly recommend this place if you’re craving something delicious and halal!“

“This place is a gem!! a must eat!! We found it through Uber Eats and ordered 1x. It was so good. The portions were amazing. Portions are like something grandma would serve her hungry kids. We visited and now I frequent it almost daily! Homefries platter is not for the faint of heart. You've got to have a hearty appetite or share it out. Grits platter...well...something of a southern treasure! Beef bacon egg and cheese sandwich is always a perfect on the run, goodie! We tried the shrimp over rice and that was nice. Chicken over rice was even better as it had a slight kick to it. And again, no matter what you order, bring a healthy appetite cause you're gonna need it and a long nap, after! These guys are amazing!! Truly! They're sweet! They're efficient! They can throw down on that gril!! Yummmmm Oh...and if you've never had it, their lemon ginger drink is amazeballs!! This place really is a gem in the middle of a jungle 😆 Visit them and be kind! Far too many ppl are not kind or feel entitled to speak to them ill mannered. Please don't! These guys really are good people and their food speaks for itself. Thank you gentlemen for always providing the best!!“

“if you hear anything negative about this place it's a lie! everything they serve its like mama cooked it! finally found a spot that serves basa fish,(fried) my old spot closed, the pieces could be larger for the price ,but it's well made like my old spot! the French fries are real fries,meaning they don't get soggy if reheated! :) the $2.99 chicken an rice, FIRE! an it's filling, but if you're a fat boy like me order 2!:)“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely amazing! Halal Connection food truck delivers top-notch, flavorful dishes that keep me coming back for more. The lamb and chicken over rice is perfectly seasoned, tender, and generous in portion size. Their pita wraps are packed with fresh ingredients and the perfect blend of spices. The service is always fast and friendly, with staff who genuinely care about the quality of their food and their customers’ satisfaction. Plus, it’s in a great location in Park Place, Newark, making it the perfect spot to grab a delicious meal while enjoying the surroundings. Whether you’re looking for a quick bite or a hearty meal, Halal Connection is a must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“Great place but your store and a few around you constantly have bums breaking into your bathroom putting guide wires down the drains and all, ripping up the PNC bank right next to you and triggering the bank alarm to harass buildings with older static based alarms all around, this is related to building 55 and a very noisy storm drain at Manor drive and Norman road, thisnis an undergroubd T section that a used in combination with deep earth scamning 2854hz to find gold and silver s r wash that along with a MISSING PHENTYYLIN PACKAGE 4 YEARS AGO.to capture it in these tunnels and other nasty things. Friday 10 am the fun started from. Your store on the 26th and you and your family is most likely being targeted. Don't forget o ly speak with officers in person and when they can presentan id.“

“nice place, delicious 😋 food, quality was excellent also it was a friendly experience I really recommend it“

“Excellent food and excellent service. We had the mutton in a large Kadai and it was superb.“
