Halal Restaurants near Secaucus, NJ

“Probably one of the best, if not THE BEST, Lahori /Pakistani restaurants in the US. The street food style menu is such a unique and authentic experience.

We tried the paratha rolls which were perfectly spiced, wrapped in flaky paratha with amazing chutneys and the crispy chicken sandwiches that were huge, juicy, and packed with desi inspired flavors. The gappa chaat was a showstopper too, tangy, spicy, fresh, and beautifully presented.

The place has such a cool, authentic vibe with vibrant murals and a welcoming atmosphere. Even the washrooms were extremely nice and well kept (wish I had taken a picture to show that)

If you’re craving real Lahori street food vibes in the US, this spot is a must visit. Generous portions, fresh ingredients, friendly staff, and flavors that hit home.“

“Good food, good prices. Hummus & pita delish! Grilled Salmon cooked perfect! Super friendly staff!!“

“So I’ve always heard about Dave’s but never been till today, first off the service I received was beyond exceptional Dylan M took my order not only did he service with a smile he took time to figure out what I like and suggested what I should get and he was right it did not disappoint I also received my order from Angel H who also provided me and my friend service with a smile he told us how to mix are sauce for the best flavor. I truly appreciate top notch service with a smile it’s very rare now a days, the service alone will have me coming back again!!!!!“

“Best burger in town !!! 🍔“

“Across the street from the Apollo and busy. 20 people can sit inside. The spice does not make you sweat but it’s a hot feeling! Medium is spicy enough even with 2 packets of honey and special sauce! You can share the slider entree with crinkle fries it’s so filling. Doesn’t come with a drink. The spice is curry-esque, even if you don’t like curry you will like this!“

“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“

“Let me emphasize this, NOBODY and I do mean NOBODY, makes a delicious bowl the way Tacobees do. I live far and order with extra charges through Ubereats because it’s just that good and worth every penny. I get burritos the size of a tiny baby. I should know because I’ve had tiny humans before and those burritos are at least 2lbs or more lol.

The way the burritos and bowls are made, is just so good. They don’t skimp out on anything. It’ll be full to the absolute brim. Their queso and guac is hands down the best out of all other chains (Chipotle, Moe’s and Qdoba.) The steak and honey chicken is just chefs kiss. I love how my delivery is also always warm and the most important part, correct. They just get me and can take my check any weekend!“

“Believe the rating - this place is the best Indian food in the city. The first time I went here, I sat next to an older Indian woman who boldly proclaimed the lamb curry was the best she’d ever had in her life. She was right - the meet is so tender and the curry is perfectly balanced. Even the naan - it’s textural and flavor perfection. Come here, be happy“

“Read the reviews and thought I would give it a try after I got off my flight, starving. It was everything the reviews said it was. Super well run To-Go orders. Food was flying out of that kitchen and they have a smooth running operation that produces delicious Caribbean Jerk Chicken with amazing sauces.“

“5/5
Food, taste, prices, portions. Everything is 5+stars.
We ordered Philly cheese steak, chicken burger w/ fries and chicken & lamb on rice and it all tasted so delicious and cooked to the right temperature and so fresh.
So glad that our vacation in NJ included eating at this yummy food cart.“

“Clean and well organized business. The girl at the front is friendly and good at her job. The best Philly Cheesesteak! I have also tried the Chicky Fries combo and that was excellent. I also like the Chicken Cheesesteak sandwich. Can’t wait to try their Wings as I just heard great things from my co-worker!

“The food was amazing, I ordered the falafel sandwich which was $8 and the chicken over rice which was also $8. Both were well made and the portions were generous. This is a bang for your buck considering how expensive meals are in this area. They even have a green sauce available that they make themselves.

Kazi himself despite a bit of a language barrier is an awesome person to speak to, he is generous in terms of helping his clients out both in pricing and with his sympathy. The service is awesome and overall I would recommend this halal cart/food to anyone out there!“

“whether you stop by at lunch rush or late evening, the food comes out hot, flavorful, and filling. The staff is quick and friendly, and even when the line looks long, it moves fast. Prices are very reasonable for Midtown, especially considering the portion size you won’t leave hungry.“

“THIS PLACE IS AWESOME !!!! I came from Canada and wanted to try something other than Halal Guys. This place blows them out of the water. Ordered:

1) Chicken Platter - AWESOME !!!! Portion was good and flavor was sooooooo good

2) Philly Cheese Steak - OMG !!!! The hero/sub was sooo good that it is a "must have"

3) Mixed Gyro - ALHUMDULLIAH !!!! The Sandwich / Pita was so packed that it took time to eat and I enjoyed every bite.

4) The Big Ash Chicken - MASHALLAH !!! The taste was sooo good that I wish I had more.

Anyone that follows me, this place has to be on your list of MUST TRY.

To the Owners/Cook/Workers - I come from Canada every other month and now I have 1 more reason to come...May Allah grant you much more success.“

“I have tried lamb over rice. My expectation was more over the taste of lamb. I think they should try more to make it a tasty one. French fries were ok. Salad was nothing special. Overall they should try more to make it something better than their competitors.“

“Me and my family decide to have a late lunch here after seeing the advertisement and reviews on instagram. We loved the food! The atmosphere and service was amazing. Finally, we have a Mediterranean place close to home. You have to come try this place and by the way they have an outdoor in the back where you can have hookah for those who are interested.“

“great food and great prices“

“My husband and I went to Forefeathers tonight for dinner, it was excellent. The chicken tenders were delicious, the pink dipping sauce was very good. The chicken sandwich that my husband had to amazing! Coleslaw was delicious, plenty of sauce and pickles. Fries were excellent….definitely will go back.“

“I’m visiting NJ (lived here for a long time) and wanted to eat some of my favorite foods. I ordered dinner from port of peri peri and it was perfectly cooked but missing my fries. I let that be known to the restaurant and received a small refund. Next night, I ordered dinner again and I received a large order of fries on the house as well as a discount card for 5% for dine in orders valid for one more week. Amazing customer service. If I were in NJ longer, I would surely order again! The food is absolutely delicious 😋“

“Food is great and service is always amazing!“

“Late night cravings led me to this food truck—and wow, they seriously delivered! Just look at this plate 🔥

Perfectly seasoned meat, crispy golden fries, fresh lettuce, juicy tomatoes, crunchy onions, and that signature creamy white sauce drizzled all over? Absolute chef’s kiss. The spice from the red sauce kicked in just right without being overpowering, and everything came together in the best kind of chaos you want from street food.

It’s the kind of meal that hits different when you’re standing under the city lights, plastic fork in hand, and the smell of grilled goodness in the air. Generous portions too—great for sharing (or not, no judgment 😎).

Highly recommend stopping by if you’re nearby. Bring your appetite—you’ll need it.“

“stumbled upon this food truck at 95 Wall Street, and it was such a pleasant surprise! The service was quick and super friendly, which is perfect for the busy Wall Street crowd. The food was fresh, flavorful, and served hot—I could tell they really care about quality. Prices were reasonable, especially considering the generous portions. The menu had a great variety, so whether you’re in the mood for something light or hearty, you’ll find it here. Definitely one of the best lunch spots in the area. I’ll be coming back often!“

“I am a chicken girl and can completely without reservation recommend any and all chicken dishes and sandwiches on the menu. I have had them all over and over. Also the French fries and green salad. They are my go to usually twice a week.Believe the listed menu needs to be updated price wise but still the best deals in town. A HuGE plus you have the Richard Tucker (google him) Park right across the street for seating. Linda“

“BEST WINGS IN NYC !!!!

I got the buffalo hot & told ack to mix it with the Thai chili sauce, GAHTTTTTTT, MASHAALLAH !!!! They were the best wings I’ve ever tried, I can’t even lie. Crispy, tender, flavorful, they surprised me. Wife got the lamb platter & said it’s the best she’s had. They really do cook back there with love & effort. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!!“

“I’ve gone to this restaurant before under the supervision of the previous owners and I loved it, but now I am blown away! With what the new owners have done with the place I can see this place booming in no time. They have a large vegan selection which is perfect for my family and I, and it’s actually great tasting vegan food which is rare to find. I tried the meatless shawarma in the Grape Leaf Bowl and wow… it is incredible. The presentation was very nice and the flavor is amazing. 10/10 I will definitely be returning here again soon. Wonderful “addition” to the neighborhood!

Vegetarian options: The following items are vegan; Beyond Kafta, Meatless Shawarma, Falafel and the Vegetable Kabob.“

“Got the tenders and fries, the chicken was super juicy and tender and the seasoning on it was enough to eat in its own but the sauces brought it to another level. The fries were crispy on the outside fluffy on the inside and also seasoned to perfection. This is a must go if youre in the area“

“Very nice and clean place to eat from and respectful service“

“Great service I recently went because a friend recommended and was not disappointed I ordered the beef gyro sandwich very good would recommend.“

“Not sure why negative comments , I have been coming here for a couple weeks now and the food is amazing and fresh they even make the buns fresh. My favorite is the grilled chicken sandwich. The staff is also very nice“

“I ordered takeout from Kulchay recently and had a positive experience. The woman working there was incredibly friendly and helpful while I waited. I tried their signature naanizza which is a fusion of naan and pizza. Both the chicken tikka and super supreme naanizzas were delicious. Even though I got stuck in traffic and had to reheat them at home, they still tasted great although I imagine they would be even better fresh out of the oven. I also tried the halwa naan for dessert which was decent but not something I would order again. All the food here is halal and I definitely plan to come back to try more items from their menu.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​“

“Sooooooo glad they’ve an outpost in my backyard. Tastes like the one on 54th, without the long line in the cold. Seriously how is this place always near empty, must be a lot of pick up/uber orders. Usually come here instead of Starbucks neck door if I wanna do some light work out my apt. Staff are super nice.“

“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.“

“I usually visit Dave’s Hot Chicken at 7th Ave Brooklyn.
This time we went so late that it was just 40 minutes left in closing and they had put all the tables and chairs away (means the dine in was closed already) but the girl at the counter was so nice that she not only allowed us to take the chairs and sit but also suggested us to rate them on app to get a free drink (everyone loves free stuff..right??)
The food and atmosphere is always always so good. We love to go there at least twice a month (as far from our place). Highly recommended especially if you are looking for some good halal food.“

“Such an underrated Halal food cart right at the heart of Wall Street Financial District. Rather than going out of your way to a fancy Middle Eastern/Mediterranean restaurant, I highly recommend stopping by the Continental Express Halal Guys.

This is your no-nonsense New York staple, the Halal street food, and they do it very well here.

I got the Combination Over Rice, which consists of lamb gyros and chicken over rice and slathered with that delicious, signature white sauce plus a generous dash of spicy red sauce to boot.

So how does it taste? Like a gushing waterfall of yummy, earthy flavor and spices in every bite! It may look like a relatively small box, but it's dense in taste.

And on top of that, this is only $7.00 cash or $7.95 with card! You get so much for your money and you leave with a full, satisfied stomach.

Finally, the guys working there are warm and friendly, too.“

“My favorite halal cart. Everytime I got Steinway I go there. The food is always fresh, chicken and lamb always flavorful and a lot of veggies included too. He offers me a falafel while I wait everytime. The falafels are great too! Very friendly, highly recommend.“

“We went to River Edge branch on Friday night - the music and atmosphere are great.Restaurant is beautiful. They have very good singer/DJ, people were dancing till very late. Food is good too - we ordered lamb shish kebab, fried potatoes, stuffed mushrooms, samsa, some salads - everything was delicious. Highly recommended.“

“I've been eating New York City halal cart food since 1998 when my wife worked on the corner of 53rd and 6th Avenue. I would grab a mixed platter from Halal Guys while I waited for her.

Then I became a fan of Adel's a little further down the street on 49th and 6th.

My new favorite is this cart in Williamsburg. Service is friendly and fun and most importantly, the platters are tasty, cooked to order, and priced at pre-Biden prices!

In all seriousness, this place is legit so try it out.“

“It’s best to eat from kazi food it’s great taste ? and best price . And very quick quality service and very clean and reliable halal food in that side . I love ❤️ to eat again and they are very friendly and give lots of food

Vegetarian options: It’s up to everyone what they want it

Dietary restrictions: It’s depends on each person how they want it

Parking: All is great if you need take out no need much time they are very fast

Kid-friendliness: They make you feel happy because they know how to make customers feel good with to much food and one person eat very well and feel full

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes it’s nice for wheelchair accessible“

“After seeing reviews on vlogs on our 1st night we decided we'd try the famous Adels Halal Cart and it didn't disappoint. I had meat combo over spicy rice and my wife had meat combo over normal rice and for $10 each you really can't go wrong. Big portions that tasted delicious. Would definitely recommend. Queue was long but goes down quick enough and the food is worth queuing for.“

“Exceptional Dining Experience!
I'm thoroughly impressed with the service here! George and the entire team provide top-notch service, making every visitor feel welcome. The halal dishes are flavorful and authentic, offering great variety. Highly recommend for halal food lovers seeking quality and warm service! #HalalFood #GreatService“

“I’ve tried over a dozen Halal carts in the city, and this one has by far the best chicken over rice. Once you try it, you’ll go out of your way to come here every time you crave halal.

The chicken is juicy and always perfectly flavored and cooked. All ingredients are fresh. The sauces are great, and the red sauce is VERY spicy (love it)

The folks running it are super friendly and the cart is kept clean.

I’m legitimately concerned that once people find out about this place, there will lines around the block. It’s one viral TikTok away from becoming an overcrowded tourist spot.“

“really great food, along with service. will definitely recommend 👌 to others.“

“Good People - Great Food - just Go! Food so Fresh!“

“Omer’s Mediterranean Cuisine is a great spot for lunch with friends or colleagues—perfect for good conversation over a delicious meal. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, making it easy to enjoy both the food and the company.

On my first visit, I tried the Spicy Lamb Adana. It was cooked perfectly—juicy, flavorful, and just the right amount of heat. You could really taste the quality of the lamb in every bite.

Definitely planning to come back to explore more of the menu. A solid choice for a satisfying Mediterranean lunch!“

“This and ONLY this Crown Fried spot is the #1 store. The workers are respectful, patient, professional, and fast. When I first moved to Brooklyn, these individuals let me ask a million questions. They were never annoyed with me, and my “ let me get a ummmmm “ moments. The area respects them, the food is great. Big shoutouts to Noor, Atiq, Sabi, & Kooday for allowing my family and I, a chance to spend our money on AMAZING quality food. Those guys are funny, smart, and ( when they aren’t busy ) caring about their customers. They find the time to ask you about your day, etc. etc.“

“Got the chicken over rice here and wasn't expecting much but was surprised by the value and taste. The serving was more than enough for two people and the taste was good. He even put in extra sauce and salad for us. No nonsense and definitely would recommend this food truck if you're looking for halal food in SoHo.“

“Tried for the first time yesterday, they exceeded my expectations. My cheesesteak was so good I could have ate another. I’m definitely coming back for more. Great food, fair prices, awesome service“

“The Boss Mike was so nice and welcoming, he really took care of us. The food was amazing he even gave us a sample of the kebab to try while we waited for our food which was incredible and he gave us a free drink overall 10/10 Will definitely come back“

“I always come here for chicken over rice when I’m low on cash but need a good meal. Always quick, cheap af ($7 exactly. For reference, a cart nearby sells for $12 + tax), and tastes great. The dude is always so kind and make sure the order is served how you want.“

“Good ?“
