“Just the best Mexican food In NYC“

“Sam’s Falafel Stand has honestly become a mandatory stop for me every single time I visit Manhattan. In a city filled with endless food options, expensive restaurants, and trendy places constantly going viral, this small food stand somehow keeps pulling me back every time I’m in NYC.

What makes it special is how authentic and consistently good everything is. The falafel is always incredibly fresh — crispy on the outside, soft and flavorful on the inside, and perfectly seasoned without feeling greasy or heavy. The hummus, baba ganoush, sauces, fresh vegetables, and warm pita all come together in a way that feels simple but genuinely unforgettable. You can taste the quality and care in every bite.

There’s also something about the experience itself that feels so New York. Standing on the street in Lower Manhattan, grabbing food from a small stand while the city moves around you nonstop somehow becomes part of the memory. It’s not trying too hard to be trendy or aesthetic — it’s just great food done exceptionally well, and that authenticity is exactly why people love it.

Over time, visiting Sam’s Falafel Stand stopped feeling like just another meal and became part of my NYC routine. Every trip to Manhattan feels incomplete without stopping there at least once. It’s one of those rare places where the food is consistently excellent, the portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the entire experience feels comforting and familiar no matter how busy the city gets.

I’ve eaten at many places across New York, but this stand genuinely stayed with me. Sometimes the places that leave the biggest impression aren’t the fanciest restaurants — they’re the small local spots that become tied to your memories of the city itself. For me, Sam’s Falafel Stand is absolutely one of those places.“

“Los mejores tacos 🌮 que e probado aquí“

“Awesome Food Truck, Fish Was Nice And Fresh Tasty And Enough.... Prices Are Very Reasonable Highly Recomended“

“the Best in everything n good humorist n loaded up in everything, excellent taste n price,“

“I’ve been coming to this small business for about 3/4 years now and although it’s just a taco truck I know enough that all I have to do is pick up my order and eat it at my house or enjoy it with my partner at the nearby park. I’m not gonna make a review about the “environment” of a taco truck and make them feel obligated to my seating needs for that I’ll just to a RESTAURANT it’s a perfect grab and go. The staff is very friendly and hard working people, for as busy as they get their customer service is consistently great. I want to mention how hard it is to find authentic AL PASTOR TACOS that are supposed to be made like how they make it here. The tortilla is always fresh, the meat is seasoned perfectly and you can tell by the color on the meat and the salsa verde is also perfect if you are into spicy fresh homemade salsa just the right texture not watery like others that I’ve had around the area.“

“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“

“This is a food cart, but I’m still trying to find a better banh mi in the city! Recently tried some highly rated downtown options and let me tell you it was nothing compared to this cart! Also: very nice owner, great prices and freshness of ingredients.“

“I had pesto fettuccine topped with mushrooms and smoked salmon, I enjoyed my pasta, it was really good and well balanced, every individual component of the pasta worked together really well. I also liked how simple and customizable the menu was, made it easy to order. I will definitely be visiting Abi's again!“

“The breakfast pockets were beyond my expectations! Perfect for a hearty morning breakfast that are quick to heat up and very filling/tasteful. Would recommend these 10x over!“

“This food truck always has a line - for good reasons. Have tried their burger and kale salad - both were fantastic. Can't wait to try more items on their menu. Price is reasonable and service is always friendly. Go - you won't regret it.“

“They’re located in front of the PNC bank and their food is the bestttt. I got the chicken over rice and a water for $17 but half of one filled me up. They’re very generous with the chicken and sauce and it tastes very good even my toddler liked it. Would definitely come back here🙌“

“What a pleasurable experience from start to finish with my two custom cake orders. Not only did the look amazing, but tasted great as well.“

“Los mejores tacos de Nueva York“

“First time trying , we ordered five sandwiches and all were delicious. Highly recommended, lots of food for the money.“

“INCREDIBLE food! The eggplant and lasagne is THE BEST around! And the cannoli's are out of this world!!! 5+ stars no doubt!“

“A friend recommended me this place on my trip to NYC and I had to stop by. Not only were the staff so kind, but the food was delicious. I bought two tacos, walked to a bench and ate them, and immediately went back for two more tacos. My only regret is not getting more consome 😫. I love that they give you pickled onions and hot sauce on the side for you to add yourself.

It may look like a “limited” menu to some people but when you perfect a taco this good, you don’t need a million options! Get the birria with consome on the side!

If you’re in NYC or visiting you HAVE to try this place. Skip Gus Tacos and get the real deal.“

“Best food truck in JC, clean and generous staff .“

“Always so good.. wish u stayed open longer hours.. 10 ? 's“

“ABSOLUTELY LOVED MY FOOD AND HENRY AND THE REST OF THE CREW WAS SO NICE! A must have !“

“Good ?“

“The chicken and beef combo was amazing.“

“Mido’s Halal Foods is honestly one of the best halal spots I’ve tasted in a long time. Nowadays, a lot of places look the same and even taste the same, but this place was genuinely different in the best way possible.

The food was fresh, flavorful, and the portions were generous without being overpriced. You can tell they care about both quality and consistency. On top of that, the prices are very reasonable, which makes the experience even better.

Thank you for the great food and service — I’ll definitely be coming back regularly.“

“Received my second order of SLAP-IT seasonings. Thank you for the fast shipping. I use it on eggs, turkey burgers, chicken and more.“

“Absolutamente todo esta riquísimo 😋#tacos #tacoscasamigos“

“Yummy & just enough spice. I will definitely be back!“

“Definitely worth standing in the pouring rain for. I ordered the chicken curry rice platter and also tried the chicken tikka katti roll that was recommended. Everything was packed with so much flavor. Chicken tikka katti roll was my favorite. Highly recommend.“

“Working with Bro-Ritos was a very pleasant experience and we can't wait to bring them back to Rutgers-NB again! From the moment we contacted them through their website, they were professional, prompt, and friendly.We invited them for our annual Black Student Social which is a fall semester welcome program. The staff were kind and worked quickly to serve over 200 students. Our students were happy with their tacos and burritos. The owner was very accommodating and met all of our needs.Administratively, I was very impressed with Bro-Ritos. We made A LOT of requests and changes and had to work through the nuances of getting a new vendor approved, but Bro-Ritos was always responsive and on top of it. They are true team players.If you have the opportunity, you should book the Bro's!“

“The perfect little taco truck! No fuss, just straight up delicious tacos. I ordered 2 birria tacos and blueberry lemonade, both were so good I wanted more! Consomé for the birria is yummy - just the right amount of flavor/salt balance. I will definitely be coming back!“

“Good luck my son 😊❤️!!!! I love you, Love, Mom- God bless you!!!!!“

“Lot of spots have so so food, this one is not it. Ordered a tikka masala because I walked by and it smelled really good. The owner making the food was really nice and the food was just as good. Strong flavors, fresh ingredients and a fire taste!“

“Thanks the empanadas are the best“

“Tucked into the buzzing streets of Hell’s Kitchen, Famous Halal Foods delivers exactly what New York street food is known for with its bold flavors, generous portions, and a personal touch that stays with you.

We went for their combo over rice, a hearty mix of tender chicken and flavorful meat served with rice, veggies, fries, and their signature sauces. The portion size was more than satisfying, and every bite packed a punch.

The combo gyro were equally impressive, well-stuffed, perfectly balanced, and ideal for a quick grab-and-go meal without compromising on taste. The flavors leaned toward the spicier side especially since we opted for extra spicy sauce but it only elevated the experience for those who enjoy a bit of heat.

What truly sets this place apart, was Mohammad Salim who the man behind the counter. His passion for cooking shines through in every dish. Warm, friendly, and genuinely hospitable, he went the extra mile by offering us bottled water without us even asking. It’s rare to see someone who treats food not just as a business, but as a craft and a way to connect with people.

If you’re in the area and craving a quick, delicious, and soulful meal, this spot is absolutely worth a visit.“

“Popped in here whilst on a business trip with 2 colleagues. All had different sandwiches on Hero rolls. Quick, great service and sandwiches were great too. Sometimes there's two much of one ingredient, not enough of another but perfect combination. We only came here on our last day, wish it had been our first, would probably have come every day“

“Always open to new ideas Y siempre amables“

“Simply awesome! Very festive atmosphere.“

“Highest quality halal food cart in the city! The owner always treats me right. The chicken over rice is amazing and the spicy/brown rice is the BEST in NYC.“

“It’s my first time trying here. I bought chicken pita wrap. It’s delicious, halal and very reasonably priced (8$). Portion is not big, so it’s better for somebody who wants a quick meal-snack. The hot sauce is really hot, don’t underestimate!“

“I recommend delicious steak sandwich“

“Al pastor and fish tacos were superb, birria taco was underwhelming and I wouldn’t recommend it.

I did notice the Al pastor used what was probably a cheaper cut of meat, but they make up for it with balanced seasoning and filling ingredients + generous avocado salsa“
