“GREAT STOP FOR GREAT FOOD“

“Filmed married to the mob back in 1988 here! Great film“

“awesome fresh and flavorful food with fast and friendly service.“

“We had the chicken fingers combo and a soda. The fingers were actually biscuit-sized chunks of succulent boneless chicken with thick breading lol 'Glad we had the crispy medium dry rub with the roasted garlic dip so that the chicken didn't get soggy. I was hoping the spice would be something unique. It was basically Lawry's seasoning which I do like, however, the fries were heavily doused in this spice and mixed with the chicken batter. Due to how overwhelming it was, that one meal was enough for two ppl (and my husband has a big appetite) which came with a side of coleslaw that was ok. Great music, vibes and restaurant name. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back, but I bet it's amazing if you stopped in here while you were rolling ;)“

“They Got Some Banging Empanadas And Some Good Milkshakes. They Also Have The Good Dominican Food Chimichurri, Mangu, Yaroa, Etc..“

“WOW!! Love Love Love this little place. lt’s great! First of all, we've been looking for a good burger place in the Union City, WNY, NB area, and it’s been tough, usually they’re mediocre at best, but not this one.
We walked jn and were warmly greeted. Our server was so sweet! She handed us a menu, which looks like an ipad, and there were so many choices, with pictures of the what the food looks like.
My bf and I ordered 2 burgers because we were in a burger mood. I can say that it definitely wasn’t a disappointment! The burgers were juicy, tasty and big! Definitely the Best burger we’ve had in the area.

The place is small, but so charming with all the decor. And they have a TV screen which shows how all the food is prepared. definitely makes you hungry!

Granted, the burgers were messy but definitely worth it! Besides the fact that they give you utensils.

As we were walking out, we ran into one of the owners, And we had to tell him how much we loved the place and the food.

Parriyas is absolutely a great choice for sandwiches and bowls and the wonderful service!

Thank you, Juan, for introducing yourself and letting us know that you also have restaurant delivery as well as Grub hub. We will absolutely become regulars!

Wheelchair accessibility: Door is right off the street.“

“Halal Chicks is hands down one of the best spots around! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Every bite hits the spot — from the juicy chicken to the perfectly seasoned rice and sauces that bring everything together.

The employees make the experience even better. They’re always friendly, respectful, and go out of their way to make sure your order is exactly how you want it. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and take pride in their work.

The service is fast, the portions are generous, and the whole place has a positive, welcoming vibe. Whether you’re grabbing lunch or stopping by late at night, Halal Chicks never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“Stopped here on a whim while walking the High Line. As Angelenos visiting NYC, the idea of gimbap was appealing. We got the veg gimbap and the bulgogi gimbap. They were both so good! What a satisfying meal.

After this, although we felt full, we got a liberty bun, stuffed with cheese. We really enjoyed chatting with Mr. Shin, and we learned that he has had custom molds made for these, with the head of the Statue of Liberty on one side, and the torch on the other. It felt really poignant to be offered these iconic symbols of America, and of immigrant optimism, while our hometown was under attack by ICE. But the bun dissolved all of those kinds of thoughts. It was so good that it dissolved all thought. All there was in the world was the perfectly seasoned cheese filling and the perfect, perfect outer dough shell. I don't know if I've ever eaten anything as perfectly Platonically perfect as this.

10/10 would and will do again, would recommend to anybody“

“Halal Chicks never disappoints — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly spiced every time.
The portions are generous, and the chicken and lamb are always on point.
Their sauces take everything to the next level — especially the white and spicy ones.
Fast service, good prices, great owner— easily my go-to spot for takeout, specially after the gym!!!💪“

“Good pit stop to have while venturing around nyc.. plus it’s hormone and antibiotic free!“

“Only one word, EXCELENT . We really appreciated that they open a site in our neighborhood , the food is great, the price is accesible and the manner of the employers is really out of question so good.“

“I love this place we come from Florida and this is our favorite place to stop when we’re in the city!! I’ve tried every menu item and none of it disappoints it’s truly so good consistently!! They need to franchise this place because I could eat it everyday!! The owners are very sweet people as well!“

“My buddy talked highly of this place so I gave it a shot. In less than a month I've made the trip 3 times and can't wait foe the next. The owner and his wife are fantastic, welcoming, and super into thier craft. I say craft because these aren't generic combinations, theyre thought out combinations and flavors that work perfectly in whatever way you like. It's my favorite hot dog spot I've ever visited. I can't wait to go again!“

“best french fries 🍟my kids loved it we will be back“

“We love the cheesecake here!! We’ve tried lots of places that offer cheesecake but this place stood out the most. Every time we are craving something this is our go to place and it’s pretty close by as well. A lot of options to choose from and the service is great! Dyvia (not sure if I spelled it right) at the store did a wonderful job too!“

“Good pit stop to have while venturing around nyc.. plus it’s hormone and antibiotic free!“

“Whats there not to love about Raising Cane's. The chicken was great and bread was amazing. Everything was fresh. Food came quickly and the service was good. Just wish they had bbq sauce but their sauce is good. The area was nice and the restaurant was clean“

“Las mejores patatas fritas de NYC“

“I came in on a whim after looking up food to eat near me (since I just moved here) and was down to try a smash burger. The owner Paul was so kind and accommodating! The food came out quick, the burger was delicious and the fries were perfectly crispy. All for $11? I'll definitely be returning.“

“it's incredibly delicious 😍🔥“

“Very friendly staff and excellent food“

“I recently visited Balkan Café and really enjoyed the experience overall. The food was absolutely delicious, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The only downside is that the atmosphere inside can get quite loud, as many diners are very lively. If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing spot, this may not be the best choice,but if you don’t mind some noise and want great food with warm service, it’s definitely worth a visit.“

“i was passing by the area and looking for a quick filling lunch, very pleasantly surprised by how yummy their chicken doner sandwich was. You MUSTT get their homemade bread, it’s so soft yet a little toasted on the outside. The cabbage and pickles were so refreshing, a nice balance to the savory chicken. It was also GIGANTIC. You will not leave hungry for sure. There is a modest seating area in there as well, in case you need to rest a little before continuing going wherever.“

“The food is bangin! And the prices are affordable. The hummus, babaganoush , and the beef and lamb platter were so fresh and flavorful! The girl behind the counter was so friendly and accommodating and the portions are BIG.This is my first time here I'll definitely be coming back to support this neighborhood small business 🙂“

“The food here is always top notch! Super fast service and the quality is always consistent. The people who work here are also all very friendly and attentive, and the place is always super clean! A really good neighborhood spot, but also definitely worth the travel if you aren’t from the area and wanna go somewhere that is affordable and good quality“

“Went today for the first time, wonderful staff and the food was incredible. Great size portions, every part of our meal was delicious. Cannot wait to go back again. Well worth the ride from Ramsey. NJ“

“I have been a loyal customer of k street food since they opened. I would have given them 5 stars, however lately I noticed changes to certain dishes I am accustomed to purchasing. The food here was always fresh and tasty. I sure hope Mr. and Mrs. Moon ,( owners/ read these reviews, since they're no longer working here. The dish Japchae ( sweet potatoe glass noodle) was a great dish that I always ordered with grilled chicken. It was very tasty with it's own vegetables in the mix. The grilled chicken was always fresh and tasty. Unfortunately, I ordered this same dish and it only has a few slices of red pepper , a few greens. It tasted mostly like a Sriracha noodle. The chicken is not the same. It tasted strange. For one, it isn't the same white meat grilled chicken and even if it's dark meat, the issue was the taste. I'm truly dissatisfied. Please don't change the original dishes that made us fall in love with your establishment. Looking forward to your progress. Namaste 🌻“

“We were looking for a yummy healthy casual lunch in SOHO and so happy we came upon this place. Had the steamed veggies roasted chicken and cabbage slaw was healthy and delicious. Manager (blond hair) was so nice to us. Will definitely be back next time we're in NYC. Wish we had Mangia in San Diego!!!“

“My favorite chicken in New York City great spin on Indian Street food and the spice level can go off the chart on that big rowdy sandwich! What are you waiting for get your butt down here and have some of those delicious chicken!“

“My wife and I visited Handcraft Burgers and Brews for my birthday this past weekend. As soon as my wife opened the menu she knew that I was going to have to try the burger of the month which was a peanut butter and grape jelly topped hamburger with jalapenos, bacon and cheese. Admittedly I have never had peanut butter and jelly on a burger before but I figured I would try something new and see what all of the hype was about. Turns out, I loved it! Every bite was so flavorful and completely made my birthday lunch a worthwhile venture! We also tried the tater tots, because who doesn't love a good tater tot. We could have chosen from multiple dipping sauces but we decided to go with the garlic aioli and I am glad we did. I dipped each of my tater tots in the sauce and there was plenty for both of us to share. We were helped by Vanessa at the restaurant and she was very accommodating when I was having trouble using a coupon that I had for my birthday. All in all this was a wonderful choice for my birthday lunch and when we are in the area again I would definitely stop by and perhaps try the latest burger of the month along with some tater tots and garlic aioli dipping sauce of course!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolutely amazing experience!
This hotdog place isn’t just about great food—it’s about the people behind it. The owner is very, nice — truly one of the kindest and most genuine people you’ll ever meet. You can feel the care and love in everything they do, from the perfectly cooked hotdogs to the welcoming atmosphere. The service makes you feel like family, and the food is always fresh, flavorful, and served with a smile. Highly recommend stopping by—you’ll leave full and happy every single time! 🌭💛“

“This is one of my favorite places to order from! My burger last time was so fresh, loved the gluten free holy cow filet, the sauce and how they actually read the notes you leave them and care for the customers! 10/10 recommended
Also such a dream come true with the food being gluten free and halal both)“

“We LOVE Raising Cane's. Fabulous. Just wish there was one in southern Indiana (New Albany, Clarksville, Jeffersonville area) so we wouldn't have to go across the toll bridge to Louisville, KY for our lunch. Thank you.“

“We have been following this establishment and have been looking forward to visiting for a while. Great food and great staff. Vegan on the Fly is a reason for us to set foot on Manhattan again! Thank you!“

“Had a double smash with fries. 100 percent recommended. this place is awesome.“

“Great food!! Went there for the first time!“

“Family friendly… nice view“

“I love a good double Italian hotdog and the best place to get one is here! They have the freshest bread and the food just tastes incredible! They are reasonably priced and give you good portions. The only bad thing is that it's a cash only kind of place, so make sure to bring cash. The next time I near this area, I will definitely be back. Highly recommend!“

“Fish and falafel combo smells great, tastes great, and here is the bonus: The gentleman that runs the truck is nice, friendly, and very very fast. I’m allergic to tomatoes so it’s a little difficult to find on the go meals sometimes. He took care of it , no problem. Oh the prices are great too.“

“My first visit to Wingstop was a bit of a disappointment, as I tried their bone-in wings and found them to be underwhelming. However, a friend encouraged me to give it another go, this time with the boneless wings, and I'm so glad I did! The boneless wings were absolutely fantastic—tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked, with the Hot Honey flavor standing out as especially delicious (Garlic-Parm was a show stopper too, but skip the KBBQ). Great value for the quality and portion size, too.

While the parking lot can be a bit tricky to navigate, the kitchen area was impressively clean, almost laboratory-level, which was reassuring. The staff was also incredibly kind and attentive, making the overall experience much more enjoyable. Definitely worth a second visit.“

“What an exceptional burger. I grabbed one randomly on the way back to my hotel during a week long visit several months ago, then had to eat there again another two or three nights that week! And now, months later and on the otherwise of the world, I find myself craving another Fat Boy with loaded fries!!! Absolutely exceptional. Easily the best burger I've had in almost 50 years of eating and travelling! I hope you're still there when I'm next back in the Big Apple!!!“

“I stopped by this Kennedy on a whim and I’m so glad I did! From the moment I walked in, the place smelled amazing,! Crispy, savory, and just the right amount of spice in the air. The staff was super friendly and helpful, making great recommendations and making sure my order was just right.

Now let’s talk about the chicken! WOW. Perfectly golden and crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. You can tell it’s made fresh to order, and the seasoning is out of this world. I also tried their sides and was blown away by how good everything tasted.

This is hands-down some of the best fried chicken I’ve had in a long time. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, don’t miss out on this gem. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Ray has so many delicious food choices.Deep fried oreos,deep fried twinkies,The egg creams are sinfully good as well as the soft serve ice cream.My favorite are the belgian fries.“

“The Teriyaki Chicken and Steak over rice bowl is absolutely amazing! The flavors are rich and perfectly balanced — the chicken is juicy, the steak is tender, and that teriyaki glaze ties everything together beautifully. Every bite is packed with deliciousness. The portion is generous, and the rice soaks up all that flavorful sauce just right. Highly recommended for anyone who loves bold, savory meals!“

“If you’ve ever wondered what pure chicken tender happiness tastes like—Raising Cane’s Harlem is the answer! From the moment I walked in, the energy was contagious: friendly smiles, music playing, and that signature Cane’s vibe that makes you feel like you’re part of something crispy and special.

Let’s talk about the food—because wow. The tenders were golden perfection: hot, juicy, and seasoned just right. The Cane’s Sauce? Addictive. I could honestly drink it (don’t judge). The crinkle-cut fries were crisp and fresh, the Texas toast buttery heaven, and even the coleslaw hit just right—fresh, cool, and balanced.

Service-wise, the team here deserves all the credit. Thank you Brianna for the perfect order, and perfect experience!

My order came out fast, accurate, and served with genuine Harlem hospitality. The restaurant was spotless, which says a lot for a spot that stays busy.

Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or late-night comfort meal, this Raising Cane’s delivers every single time. Harlem didn’t just get a chicken spot—it got a whole vibe.

🔥 Must-try combo: Box Combo, extra Cane’s Sauce. Trust me.“

“Wow. This place is full of good vibes and energy. I recommend this place 100 percent. The burger was well seasoned and juicy. The pickles were crunchy and the onions were very tasty. I also enjoyed the cajun fries and their signature sauce. It was super yummy. My husband and I were treated super nicely and were welcomed with bright smiles and honestly there’s nothing better than that. These people really have a passion for making their customers feel special. I will be coming back soon even though I live 30 minutes away.“

“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.“

“Five Guys is a fast-food chain known for its tasty burgers and generous fries. Unlike traditional brands, here, the quality of the ingredients is highlighted: the beef is fresh and never frozen, the toppings are varied and customizable, and the fries are cut by hand and cooked in peanut oil.

The taste is there, with juicy burgers and soft bread. Being able to freely choose your toppings allows you to have a sandwich perfectly suited to your tastes. The fries, served in very generous portions, are crispy and tasty. Little extra: self-service peanuts which add an original touch to the experience.

However, the price is higher than other fast food chains, which may deter some customers. Additionally, restaurants are often noisy and the presentation of the dishes is quite basic. Despite this, the quality of the products and the taste more than justify the price.

Kid-friendliness: Yes“

“The restaurant gets pretty busy at times. The food here is great but please work on the customer service here!!!!! If you order on the phone call back to make sure they get your order. I’ve called in advance 30 minutes and then come to pick up the food. The servers say they never got a call and will work on my food.“

“GERMAN DONER KEBAB - AN ENLIGHTENMENT If you're from Berlin, it feels like there's a kebab store on every other corner. So I can recognize and judge a kebab when I see it. Even just leaving Berlin and Brandenburg, the kebab experience changes within Germany. The further you get away from Berlin, the worse the kebabs get. Some time ago in New York, I discovered one or two places trying to make a kebab. Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to find a proper kebab in New York, despite the name kebab. What was being sold was called a kebab, but had very little to do with a kebab and tasted even less like a kebab. All the more enlightenment then... the recommendation of a friend living in Brooklyn. "German Doner Kebab" in Brooklyn. And then the first kebab there since 2018 here in New York. I can't even describe how happy I was. It looked like a kebab, it tasted like a kebab and came pretty close to a kebab from Berlin. Really well made. Incl. tax 12.51 dollars is a bit steep, but still good value for New York. The portion was good and filling. Everything is really fresh and well seasoned. The bread was just as it should be, thin and crispy. This was pretty much the best kebab I've had in a very, very long time (with the exception of one visit to Berlin). I will definitely go back there again. GERMAN DONER KEBAB - EINE ERLEUCHTUNG Wenn man aus Berlin kommt, hat man gefühlt an jeder zweiten Ecke einen Dönerladen. Ich kann also einen Döner erkennen und beurteilen, wenn ich ihn sehe. Allein schon Berlin und Brandenburg verlassend wird das mit dem Döner innerhalb von Deutschland anders. Je weiter man sich von Berlin entfernt, desto schlechter werden die Döner. In New York entdeckte ich schon vor einiger Zeit den einen oder anderen Anbieter mit dem Versuch, einen Döner zu machen. Bisher konnte ich leider in New York trotz Bezeichnung Döner keinen ordentlichen Döner entdecken. Das was da verkauft wurde, heißt zwar Döner, hatte mit Döner aber recht wenig zu tun und schmeckte noch viel weniger nach einem Döner. Um so mehr dann die Erleuchtung... die Empfehlung eines Freundes in Brooklyn lebend. "German Doner Kebab" in Brooklyn. Und dort dann der erste Döner seit 2018 hier in New York. Ich kann gar nicht beschreiben, wie sehr ich mich gefreut hatte. Es sah aus wie ein Döner, es schmeckte wie ein Döner und kam schon recht nah an einen Döner aus Berlin heran. Richtig gut gemacht. Incl. Tax 12,51 Dollar ist zwar sportlich, aber für New York wiederum preiswert. Die Portion ordentlich und sättigend. Wirklich alles frisch und gut gewürzt. Das Brot genau so wie es sein muss, dünn und knusprig. Also das war seit sehr sehr langer Zeit so ziemlich der beste Döner (mit Ausnahme einem Besuch in Berlin), den ich seit langer Zeit gegessen habe. Dahin kehre ich auf alle Fälle wieder zurück. -------------------------------------------------“
