Halal Restaurants near Elmhurst, NY

“Asian Taste 86 is a gem in the heart of Elmhurst, Queens! This authentic Indonesian spot serves up incredibly flavorful dishes, and the warm, friendly vibe makes you feel right at home. It’s a popular spot, so expect a crowd and sometimes a bit of a wait—but trust me, it’s worth it.

Occasionally, they may ask you to switch tables to accommodate new guests, but with food this good, I don’t mind at all. Every time I visit, I clear my plate! The beef rendang is a standout—so tender and packed with flavor. Highly recommend this place!“

“Food is delicious, great quality. Love the spice and flavor, chicken curry was excellent, chicken biryani super delicious, the naan and mango lassi …wow. We recommend this authentic cuisine, plan to come back for more delicious food.“

“Great service. Foods amazing. Love halal guys go there now.“

“Lagman Express offers delicious, authentic flavors with standout dishes like their signature lagman noodles. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make it a welcoming spot. Great portions, reasonable prices—highly recommend for a unique and tasty dining experience!“

“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!“

“I got the combination chapli and vanilla pudding. Worth the price. Fluffing amazing flavor.
Combination chapli has one chicken patty kebab and one beef patty with rice, fries, and salad. I personally could have lived without the fries.
Pudding is great.
Sorry for the posted photo, I ate most of the food.

Just try it. You won't regret it.“

“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.“

“Absolutely phenomenal. Best Indian restaurant in NYC by a large margin. The biryani was so flavorful and full of spice, the chutneys were great, and the marinated chicken was so tender and flavorful it puts others to shame. Top it off with amazing service and a cool vibe. Ill be back to try everything on the menu“

“Absolutely PHENOMENAL food. We got a family platter of chicken and rice and a side of jerk chicken. It was the best food I’ve had in a very long time.

Salad was delicious, everything was fresh and wrapped so perfectly. The sauces were so yummy, I’d eat here every damn day if I could.“

“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!

“This cart is right off the Grand Ave Station so I usually stop by on my way home.

The person working is usually different everytime I go but they are all so kind! And they really pack in what they can into the to-go container. I guess it depends on how much you eat but it usually lasts me 2 meals.

They take both cash and card which is also really convenient.“

“Hello Everyone,
Although this location is temporarily closed, the same person is operating only 5 minutes away at 195 Joralemon Street, both locations have the same owner but recent challenges have lead the owner to temporarily shut down this location.

The customer service and quality will be the exact same guaranteed.

Thank you for reading, Enjoy your day.“

“As a customer at Gyros & Wings Paradise, I have to say, it’s become my new favorite spot! The moment I walked in, the delicious smells hit me, and I couldn’t wait to dig in. I started with the gyro, and it was fantastic—perfectly seasoned meat with a generous portion of tzatziki sauce, wrapped in a warm, fluffy pita. The flavor was spot on, and I could tell everything was fresh.“

“Great place with friendly staff and amazing food. Always our go to place for something authentic and reminds us of home!“

“June 26, 2022. Walked to get our order of a Lamb wrap, chicken wrap and fries. First time there and a welcome place to the neighborhood. The staff are friendly, the place is new and clean and most important the food is very good. Will return many times. Check it out.“

“Wow! A friend and l stumbled across this place by accident and couldn’t be happier inshallah ! Food is fresh , and feeds the soul. John , at the register served us as if we were coming to dine in his home. 10 out 10!!! High recommend, lm sure you’ll agree!!“

“I think sky cafe has the best Indonesian food in nyc“

“I would say this is one of the better gyros than what you can find around the area.

It is 7$ for a combo over rice, and honestly it is very Solid food. You have the chicken, the lamb is ground lamb. The rice, salad and bits of pita bread. White sauce and a option between hot sauce or very spicy hot sauce. Always taste very warm and fresh.

I usually go over during my Lunch break since my office is very nearby and can go over to Bowling Green park to eat.

Only downside (not really a downside) is the line can be very long during Lunch hour, however since service is very quick the line goes by quickly.

I also have to ask for extra white sauce since it dries up very easily or they don't put enough. But for most people they don't have to since I think the sauce is good enough, but I prefer more.“

“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.“

“I really appreciate that Fevy’s offers halal chicken for Muslim customers, and the quality is top-notch. You can tell the chicken is fresh from its texture and cleanliness. The fried chicken is incredibly crispy, and the buldak chicken with cheese was absolutely delicious, though be warned—it’s quite spicy! The portion sizes are generous as well. The kimchi fried rice was decent, but it had a strong sesame oil flavor that might not be for everyone. The fries were a highlight—crispy and fresh. The iced tea, however, wasn't sweet enough for my taste. I also tried a sauce that was labeled as spicy, but it leaned more on the sweet side, which wasn’t what I was expecting. It would be great if there was a way to sample all the sauces without having to buy each one separately. The service was friendly and enthusiastic, which made the experience even more enjoyable.“

“I’ve now had food from here 4x and it is delicious. It’s consistent for both pickup and delivery, and platters and gyros are equally tasty and generous. Chicken, lamb & falafel all excellent! Overall I find it a little lighter than most halal I’ve had in NYC and the pickled onions take it over the top. I can’t recommend enough!

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a roll up window that I used with my baby stroller!“

“Looked up best Halal in Bushwick and wasn’t disappointed. I’d consider myself a bit of an expert in this area, been eating Halal food for 20 plus years in the city. This is a solid cart, ordered the combo with falafel and chopped pita on top. Lamb was thin and crispy cooked to perfection, chicken was tender , falafels were great too just a little cold. I’d give an 8.5 out of 10.“

“DELICIOUS!! The food was incredible and the service was great too. We order chicken tika and chicken biryani - both were delicious. Food came out fast and our server made sure to check in to make sure everything tasted great. Their mango lassi is so refreshing. Highly recommend. Can't believe it took me so long to try this place - new neighborhood favorite.“

“Great food here with nice staff. I love the butter chicken and Afghan style kababs, especially the chicken tikka. Grilled kabobs and the food is juicy, flavorful, with big portions, you will feel satisfied no matter what you order. Best of all is the price, you get tasty and fresh food at an affordable price.“

“Absolutely love this place?. Its now my top spot for gyros and authentic afghan cuisine in Brooklyn NYC. The portions are generous and the value for the price is unbeatable. The salad was super fresh, and they give u a large portion with gyros as compliment and the store is very clean and inviting. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me come here everyday. I can't wait to come back again?

Vegetarian options: The salad was fire. Clean and fresh plus they give you a large portion too with as many choices as you want. Highly recommended?☘️“

“The food is nothing short of amazing – packed with flavor, fresh ingredients, and perfectly cooked. The portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food you get. If you're looking for authentic halal food with great service, this food truck is a must-try!“

“it was amazing!! The proportions of the chicken and rice were in large amounts. The chicken was cooked well and the rice was soft. The salad on the side was very fresh. Overall I recommend this place for kids and adults. The spice levels canbe altered by asking for little hot sauce and more white sauce. The price is affordable and it is ready in less than 10 minutes.“

“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“

“We ordered Delivery pilaf and 4 types of shish kebab.
Everything was very tasty, the kebab was very juicy and soft, the pilaf was also delicious. Delivery was not long, all the food was hot and well packaged.
I recommend trying it. We will order more. Thank you for your work!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Very good halal. The combo over rice was delicious. The chopped pita and the loyalty cards are the best parts of this place. However I do wish the pita was a bit more grilled and I wish the salad had a bit more in it and maybe some more variety in vegetables. I know that’s not standard for halal cart but I do think that is what would make this a 10/10 for me instead of 9/10. Nonetheless though very delicious and I recommend trying if you’re in the area.“

“I order from here regularly. Their biryani is probably one of the best in Brooklyn arguably.“

“They have good food“

“This noodle joint is a hidden gem in Queens!

Nestled in Rego Park, Uyghur Lagman House offers freshly made, authentic, and halal Uyghur dishes that are as delicious as they are unique! Im so glad I finally tried it! From their house-made noodles to sizzling specialties, every item on the menu is packed with rich, unforgettable flavors. For a genuine taste of Uyghur cuisine, this is the place to be!

Started with their Uyghur manta & Samsa which were so good followed by their special Lagman & Scallion lamb! Everything was truly amazing! Great service too!“

“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.“

“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.“

“The quesadillas were heavenly ??. I strongly recommend the cajun chicken quesadillas. I didn't like the garlic wings very much since the garlic flavor was hardly there, and the wings were really soggy, but I will let it slide because the quesadillas, burgers, and fries were all top-tier. Azka BBQ on top.“

“Wonderful lamb and chicken over rice. Adel’s seems to be the only great halal spot that we knew of but lines were crazy. Mido’s is fantastic! $9 for a platter of tender and juicy meat. We were pleasantly surprised. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a great halal platter without waiting.“

“One of the best halal place in Brooklyn“

“I have been coming to this place since they first opened. It was sad to see the Chinese restaurant go but this place makes you think they have been there your whole life. I have had countless meals here and I have not had one miss. I am very happy that its priced fairly and it is a good amount of food. I wish had some pictures but I am always so quick to dig in. I love that they are always adding new things to the menu so I can literally go here multiple times per day. I would suggest if you live nearby to go through the menu and order one item at a time and try to pick a favorite because I have yet to be able to pick one because everything is so good.“

“Generous portions, flavours, nice group of people working there, as food trucks serving halal food in Manhattan , I rank them number one, equally to the king of falafel and shawarma. Once you done eating their food, you won’t go” what have I done??!!).

Vegetarian options: Falafel, salad, rice, fries,…“

“I had an amazing experience at Afghan Boys! The chicken over rice is absolutely the best I’ve ever had—flavorful, perfectly cooked, and generously portioned. The staff are incredibly nice and respectful, always treating customers with kindness and professionalism. They truly go above and beyond to ensure a great dining experience. Highly recommend this cart for anyone looking for delicious food and excellent service!“

“Great food,clean organized. light everywhere.i love it.a little expensive but it's worth it because the personal treatment,and good vibes.will come back often,and secure,you see cops everywhere.because of the precint.try their chicken wings!!“

“Distinguished service...clean food, high quality of everything. The food places are wonderful and distinct, and each of the services is preventive and packaged in serving the food. Masks and gloves are changed with every order. This means prevention, washing hands and drying them very much.“

“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.“
