As for the food—absolutely A1! The chopped cheese was perfectly seasoned and fresh, and every bite was delicious. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for great food and excellent service.“

“Chicken over rice is absolutely delicious! Reminds me of tandoori chicken. Their fried chicken is hand breaded. Large portions, nice people, I'm definitely coming back for more.“

“I can’t stop ordering from here! Food is so fresh and so good. The chicken is insanely tender and flavorful. I want to try more items but I keep going back to the chicken over rice because it’s truly incredible. I am a sauce boss and I love that they cover it in sauce. You get an insane amount of food for a great price. Love having this in the area!“

“Food is simple but fresh and well prepared. We had Bolani which is like a thin crisp Samosa, falafel wrap and chicken over rice. Food came quickly, service was great and ingredients were very fresh. Homemade white sauce was excellent. Will definitely go back if we are in the area again“

“While in the area looking for an apartment I’ve ordered from them for entire week and never got sick of it. Clean, fast, and tastes amazing! I could eat this everyday.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Best Halal spot in 518
Mashaallah super clean
This place doesn’t not disappoint at all. They only have been open for 4 months and everything they do is perfect. The first thing you notice when you go in there is how clean everything is, from floors, walls, seating, kitchen, etc. The food is unmatched by any other, very generous portions, the quality is excellent and the taste is consistently amazing. They cook their food well and the spices are perfect. The price is very reasonable for the quality of their dishes. Lastly, the workers there are extremely respectful, kind and hospitable. They make me feel welcomed every time I come in especially now that I’m a regular there. Keep up the good work!“

“Don't go anywhere else for anything. 10/10 highly recommend“

“If you haven’t been you should go And if you have been you know ! Amazing food“

“Just Amazing.“

“Halal Shack is one of my favorite spots on campus. Their falafel over brown rice is my go-to, and it never disappoints. Recently, they've introduced some exciting new toppings, including the spicy feta, which is a must-try. The combination of flavors is outstanding, making each visit a delightful experience. If you haven’t been yet, you’re definitely missing out!“

“Excellent kind, patient, and quick service. Clean and really nice art work inside. Prices are worth it and affordable. I enjoyed everything with my family. Food was fresh and very colorful. So happy to see a halal Mexican place. It is authentically made too! Thank you guys for working hard. Major plus for the community. OMG forgot to add : gettttt the desserts! The person who makes the desserts I need a whole tray asap. Thank you! Lol“

“Last night, after 7:30 PM, I visited this halal Turkish restaurant for dinner—and I must say, it was one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had!
I ordered kebab, and it was absolutely incredible: tender, perfectly cooked, seasoned beautifully, and full of flavor. It was so delicious, I honestly have no words.
I’ve tried kebabs in many Turkish restaurants before, but this one was truly something else.
I didn’t get the chef’s name, but he was clearly a true professional—polite, warm, and welcoming with a great sense of humor. Both I and my family were very pleased with his excellent hospitality.
I truly hope you continue to shine with your amazing cooking. From now on, I don’t even want to try kebabs anywhere else—because I’ve found the best kebab in the world!
Thank you so much for everything!“

“I recently visited Dave's Hot Chicken with my husband and best friend, and we were all so impressed! We ordered online for takeout, and the process was super easy and convenient. We spent a little over $30, and the food was ready right on time. Even after driving 20 minutes to get home, the food was still piping hot and delicious! Monica, who's usually picky, got her meal exactly how she wanted it, and the quality was outstanding. Although there was a slight wait when we picked up, the staff was really friendly, and the food was well worth it. Highly recommend Dave’s Hot Chicken for great food and a smooth ordering experience!“

“Probably the best chicken over rice I’ve had... I’m even putting this above halal guys in NYC. Not to mention great customer service, was given fried chicken while waiting for our food to come out 🙌🏻 seriously delicious. Great food and people! Will be coming back.“

“Delicious. Must go. Get that mantu!“

“Such good fries- such great service- a gem in downtown“

“Wings (Buffalo & Garlic Parm) were spectacular, but the Chicken & Rice was very mid. They open later than their listed hours and they aren’t prepped in advance, so if you come at opening time expect to wait awhile to get food. Atmosphere isn’t great, expect to takeout and the waiting area isn’t great so we waited in our car. Parking situation is good though.“

“This is one of my favorite places to eat around Latham, I enjoy the food and the warm atmosphere and service from staff. I haven't gotten any better tasting lamb kabab around here but at Zaitoon!!!“

“Oct 2024: Ordered via UberEats. We were so tired after driving from Vermont at midnight, wanted to have something hot, tasty in the nighttime. This place served us Falafel and Rice (all vegetarian) so tasty with sauces (I guess tamarind and hari chutney)

Vegetarian options: Falafel over rice“

“Hubby brought home food from Karam yesterday for the first time ever...we were blown away! Fresh and absolutely delicious!! So glad hubby works in Schenectady we’ll be regulars! YUM!“

“The food was awesome and the service was superb..they can try keeping it more cleaner next time...it must have the closing time and we were the last customer in, they must have just started cleaning it up after a long day...a must try place... amazing taste of mandi, tea and arabic tea.“

“The food here is 10/10.
The fish and grits combo is a delicious choice.
There are so many options to choose from.
Smoothies, smoothie bowls, protein shakes, and all types of food choices from all over.
One of their undefeated meals is the Caesar salad with steak on top. You will not be disappointed. They have a ton of healthy snacks and over 40 drink choices. They even have seaweed chips! The chef is very kind and he talks to everyone. The staff are great, very accommodating. If you call to order give them about 20 minutes before you pick up. They have wheel chair accessibility as well. It’s
worth the wait!“

“Very good food and service. Also has gluten free options.“

“I have never been to a halal place before this and ordered from here while they offered their BOGO chicken and rice plates. Not only was the food amazing, but they gave me SO MUCH. The proportions were impressive, straight up lasted me three days. Service was relatively quick and friendly. Absolutely would and will order from here again.“

“Best and delicious mddil east food in the capital district“

“I love the food here, and the people at TanDoori House are fantastic. As a vegetarian, I love having so many options on the menu to choose from, and whether you do pickup or delivery, it’s always delicious. Their chana masala is top tier, and so are their saag paneer and vegetable samosas. For dessert, definitely go for the rice pudding. I’ve ordered here several times and it never disappoints!“

“Hubby brought home food from Karam yesterday for the first time ever...we were blown away! Fresh and absolutely delicious!! So glad hubby works in Schenectady we’ll be regulars! YUM!“

“Delicious food and great service. My daughter's favorite pizza!“

“I order online frequently for home delivery. Food is excellent and usually arrives in about 30 to 40 minutes or less. They offer a wide variety of food, dessert and beverage options.“

“We ordered take out. The pizza was good light fluffy crust. The mild wings were good. The sauce is sweet and spicy. I personally like that.

Parking: They only have a few spots and being right on state street it can be hard to get in and out“

“This is the best buffet money can buy and the best Indian food money can buy. I’m an omnivore but if I ever had to be vegetarian I couldn’t do it without eating spicy mint every day. I’ll frequently fill up completely on vegetarian options and be completely stuffed and satisfied. There is no other option if you are craving Indian food. The ingredients are fresh and peak of flavor. The goat is unbelievably perfect and so is every chicken dish. I love this place and you can taste their love for what they do in the food, and smell it when you walk through the door. Flavor over load!“

“This place has multiple things inside one location. The restaurant inside, they are not very accommodating. I've ordered for a group of people for take out and they were so strict, didn't want to give plates or anything until the owner or management got involved.

While the food was good, they overprice everything. Probably will try other places next time before coming back to this.“

“I can't forget that Peshewari Naan and Bombay Aloo. Two awesome items with perfect balance of spice. They asked us the spice level we would prefer. This is something indian restaurants usually do not ask. Loved that part. Two other items were onion naan (was good) but the Mughlai chicken, something was off about it. It could be the balance of sweet or the salt was not right. I felt like I am eating a thik gravy. I believe the tea was over brewed and to balance it more milk was poured in. That's just an opinion as I know taste of tea is very subjective. Besides all of this the portion of one order was good for two. I think they are underrated by themselves. I would recommend them to change the whole seating arrangement. Also, update your restaurant name to Ahmed Restaurant. It was hard to find it.Spend $36 for two. (1. Mughlai Chicken came with choice of rice/Naan, Aloo Naan came with Rice/Naan)“

“Had a great experience several times. Then tonight ordered by Grubhub and it’s literally awful. I called in an attempt to rectify the problem and was told “nope that’s what you ordered”“

“My first time here, l ordered a White Broccoli and a Bella Philly Steak slice. All l can say is they were delicious and I will most definitely be back. Thank you.“

“I highly recommend CFC. The atmosphere is cozy. The service is friendly and their food is delicious. We have tried several items from the menu. All are outstanding.“
