Food Stands near Flushing, NY

“Guokui is as delicious as ever. The younger brother and eldest sister in the store are also super nice. I went to eat Guokui today and put my schoolbag on the chair. Fortunately, my brother helped me take it back to their front desk and looked after it for me. Thank you so much!“

“They serve the most authentic and delicious rolled noodles (Hong Kong street style)! I'm impressed this tiny shop actually provides a decent varieties and I recommend this place at all costs! Yes, the price has been going up but I still support this one and only place in Flushing! By the way all ladies have different characters lol, they are nice and helpful. Usual wait time is 5 - 10 minutes.“

“During our recent stay in Flushing Queens, NY, we were in desperate need of finding a halal food place, and ZAIQA Halal Food cart was an absolute lifesaver! The food was not only authentic but also incredibly flavorful. We tried their chicken over rice and lamb gyro, and both dishes were cooked to perfection, with generous portions and fresh ingredients.

The service was quick, and the chef was friendly, making the whole experience even better. If you're in the area and looking for delicious, affordable halal food, ZAIQA is the place to go. It truly saved our day, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience!“

“Time and time again, Shah’s Halal cart has been my go to halal cart in all of NY. I’ve tried halal carts from LES, UES, UWS, Flat Iron, Financial District, 53rd and 6th, Astoria, Bayside, etc, and I still come back to Shah’s. I moved to Florida 6 years ago and when I come back to visit family, you bet I’m paying a visit to Shah’s.“

“I'm not a chinese food expert but the sweet and sour ribs were excellent, full of flavor and delicious. The beef udon noodles were unbelievably good and I couldn't eat enough.
You have to hand it to the staff for being so attentive and quick , same to the kitchen for getting the dishes out fast.
A very enjoyable meal and prices are in line with most restaurants these days.
The only pita was the parking situation, you have to find a spot on the street or in a garage, be careful.“

“They are back! after weeks of being closed. The perfect spot for a late night bite in flushing. They have a wide variety of skewers even seafood choices. After one or two skewers you will find yourself hungry for more. The meats are prepared and kept fresh in clean coolers it’s a street cart so they meticulously clean the area making sure their customers are happy. You can sit and eat small chairs and tables are provided.“

“Billy is an absolute legend, I had my first hotdog whilst in New York at Billy stand it didn’t disappoint, such a friendly nice guy and also get us a free drink and try to give us a free packet of crisps! Top bloke and a must visit hotdog stand!“

“Karl's Balls are some of the tastiest I have ever had in this world. Hot, savory, and so meaty! 🐙“

“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.“

“If you’re a tourist hunting for a quick, affordable halal meal, look no further—this place has you covered. The $12 gyro platter is hands down one of the best deals you’ll find. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, the rice is perfectly cooked, and the salads and sauces just tie it all together in the best way possible. It’s filling, tasty, and easy on the wallet.

Locals, you’re seriously lucky to have this spot in your neighborhood. Everything on the platter is fresh and full of flavor, and you can tell they put care into making sure each part of the meal hits just right. Whether you're a visitor or a regular, this is the kind of place you’ll keep coming back to.“

“My visit to ToastieLand at Smorgasburg was a delightful culinary journey. The Mac and Cheese Toastie stood out with its creamy, savory flavors, perfectly complemented by the garlic, buttery bread. Service was impeccable, providing an enjoyable and efficient experience. The Lav Vanilla Lemonade was a refreshing finale to the rich, cheesy indulgence. ToastieLand is a gastronomic gem that's not to be missed, available at Williamsburg on Saturdays and Prospect Park on Sundays.“

“Take out a piece of pancake fruit and two boxes of donkey rolling. The donkey rolling is sweet and soft. If the pancake fruit has more sweet sauce, it will be perfect. The store clerk is very friendly, but I don’t know why my donkey rolling is missing a piece😄“

“All the vendors are so helpful and proud of their products. It's really wonderful to see.“

“I came here expecting a similar experience to Pomme Frites and was sadly disappointed. While Frites is in the name, this establishment is focused a lot more on meals beyond just fries (like burgers). That’s not a bad thing, I was just hoping for something a little more specific. The Frites in question were okay. A little overcooked and crispy, but perfectly good enough to soak up the alcohol after a trip to nearby Sunken Harbor. The dipping sauce options were limited to a handful, but solid. The location has a few tables in the front. I wouldn’t call this a place where you would want to chill out, but it served its purpose. They also had fancy lemonades, which was a bonus.

Kid-friendliness: No reason why you couldn’t bring your child here. Just know that there isn’t a ton of seating.“

“Loved the food!! A MUST TRY for anyone!! I had the chicken+rice+salad+white sauce+hot sauce combo and it was AMAZING!! I am from Florida and never had anything like this ever there especially for the price. The food was delicious, clean and cheap too and made me full for the rest of the day. Infact, I liked it so much that I had it twice in the same day since I was in NYC only for a day and didn’t want to miss it. The owner was an amazing guy and he was generous enough to give me Falafel too. The way he talked showed his passion for food. Loved it! I wish we had this in South Florida too.“

“Las mejores chalupas !!!sin duda volveremos muy pronto 😋🥰“

“I loved the place the food was amazing and also the server was very kind to give me more than enough napkins and utensils along my food.The amount of food given was filled to the top with no room to spare it was an amazing experience would recommend it 10/10.

Kid-friendliness: The workers are nice and well behaved and very funny.“

“I just went to the truck today! I handed the guy managing the orders my phone written with the order I wanted + payment with tip! (I didn't want to speak because my voice does not match the vibe I try to give 99% of the time!).
He took it with an open heart and even added a sweet pastry to my order! He was very kind for that.

Protect the man managing the orders at all cost ?“

“For those of us who love Halal food we are always looking for that mysterious exotic aromatic flavor that rocked our souls and stole our hearts. For me the perfect platter of halal food, be it rice or lamb over rice, has to have that perfect balance of meat to rice ratio. The right seasons and spices are used . Are there any sides such as vegetables or pickles provided. Big Boss plate of combination over rice checked most of those boxes for me. If I’m in Lenox hill the Big Boss truck is certainly one
Of my top voices of truck food.“

“Notalgic is the word that defines the place, the older gentleman who was there, who is not the owner JohnPhillis, is a person who should be retired, has no patience with customers and tourists, is very rude when dealing with people, and This ends up influencing the rest of the team, who learn how not to treat people. I loved the hamburger I ate, the fries were perfect, only the Coca Cola is very still for those who are used to drinking bottled ones, I loved the place, I hope one day to go back and meet John in person who, from the videos I watched, seems to be a very interesting person.“

“I still think about this guys gyro. My wife and I stopped at the pizza place across the street and I wanted to try this guys food. My wife and I shared gyro and fries. The hot sauce, the meat, the tzatziki, the lettuce, the tomatoes, everything so fresh, and the taste. Who would think 5 years later this is still the best we have ever had. On top of it all his service and kind smile was so genuine. Absolute 5 star food. Loved it and can’t wait to try again!“

“Came with my boyfriend whos been here multiple times and said it was delicious, and he wasn’t wrong. We got chicken, squid, chinese sausage, ricecake, shrimp, and beef skewers that were ALL amazing. HIGHLY recommend the spicy powder on any skewer you order. I have low tolerance for spice, but it was just a small kick for a couple seconds. I will be coming here way more often, I found my favorite food spot for late night snacks.“

“Delicious, fresh chicken and lamb, perfectly seasoned and cooked, and served with a smile. Quality of the meats is above the usual cart fare, and it makes a big difference. We eat a LOT of halal cart food, and Abdul offers some of the best we’ve had. If you’re in the area (or flying out of JFK and have some extra time), it’s worth a small detour.“

“So it was our first time trying halal food and to be honest it was delicious. Very different flavors but everything worked really well together. Super fresh and had a strong aromatic taste. The meat was all tender and had great flavor. Definitely can’t wait to come back and try more. Thanks !!“

“Order one of everything and have a tamale fest. everything is delicious.“

“having there combo.over rice. had to stop eating for a bit to leave this comment. so effin delish. I have ate hala food before from other places including hala guys and shahs both are really good but HAJRAH MUST SAY MY NEW FAVORITE. THEY DEFINITELY STAND OUT THEN RHE OTHERS ONES.. COMES WITH EGGPLANT. I REQUESTED NO EGGPLANT BUT 2 PCS WAS ABLE TO SNEAK IN MY FOOD.. GLAD IT DID I TRIED IT AND WAS EVEN BETTER IT BALANCED OUT THE SPICEYNESS ..“

“Excelentes pizzas y gran sabor“

“son muy ricos y las personas q atienden son demasiado amables“

“Highly recommend Yolanda’s tamales 🫔 They’re huge & delicious! This is my second year ordering in a large batch for Christmas. This year, I ordered the ones made from mole de puerco and pollo con salsa verde. Traveled over an hour from Brooklyn for these — will be ordering again soon!“

“Despite some people saying quality went down, I got two platters and I enjoyed them a lot. Chapli, Kofta, and chicken was really good and well seasoned. The rice was fluffy and tasted fine, nothing too crazy. The sauces stood out and were very good and felt very refreshing.“

“Amazing momos, I love the beef momos steamed personally. I find it best to steam them myself because then its steam just the right amount. If you do buy steamed momos of the truck you will likely not have to wait however, its very fast! Been going here for years and steamed over 600-800 momos so far!“

“This hotel is perfect to stay at when you are catching a flight. We got the park and stay. It was easy to catch the shuttle to the airport and on the way back only had to wait about 20 min. We also got a free breakfast with this package. The hotel and staff are very nice. Would def. Stay again..“

“A beautiful place perfect to eat a burrito al pastor tacos from Carnitas and everything is fresh instantly prepares the meat like other trucks that already have the meat cooked just heat it up and then it's over that's why other people complain that two tacos half an hour Esque He doesn't know about the service they roast and everything is fresh until the radish is cut instantly ???

Vegetarian options: The entire menu is vegetarian except for the flautas gordita and tamales ☺️☺️☺️“

“I ordered a mix over rice, and for starters it’s a great deal you get a drink and a filling plate for under $10. The lamb is pretty flavorful but not as much as the chicken, the hot sauce adds and pairs really well with the protein and rice while the green sauce gives it a fresh minty flavor. I’d say there are way better tasting food carts but it is 100% a bang for your buck. Be prepared to stand in a 10-15min line“

“I had a fried cutlet chicken sandwich with cheese and pickles with a side salad that was very delicious. When stopping by I suggest to anyone to try everything on the menu, I would start with the grilled chicken sandwich with a salad with variety fixings of your choice.Cupcake muffins flavorsRed velvetCarrot cake with cream cheeseFrench vanilla with chocolate chipAt $2.00 a cupcake it is worth trying. They are all really good but my favorite is the red velvet, it moist, a nice mouth feel and it’s not as sweet as other cupcake. I recommendto put it in the refrigerator and eat it cold.

Vegetarian options: The side salad was very good, it had black Olives, green olives, onions, feta cheese and parmesan cheese.“

“They serve the temple food :) they know what vegan is, the dumpling and the cabbage bun I get is fully vegan no egg and no dairy :)
They don’t even have the five elements, which is 五辛 in it
They even have a separate pot to boil and cook the vegan dumpling
I’m truly thankful
thank you so much“

“We got Tostadas de Cesina, Quesadillas de Cesina and Tacos de Pollo with toppings. The presentation & taste was great, the only thing was that the food was overly salty. It was so good just couldn’t finish it. Otherwise, It’s one of the best Taco Trucks. Just giving kind feedback since we give second chances and will try the food again for a different experience. God Bless ??“

“Order one of everything and have a tamale fest. everything is delicious.“

“Love empanadas and tamales , me encantan 😍“

“Love their products. In fact I stopped buying any soybean product (Tofu Skin & Soymilk mainly) from other brands after tried Kong Kee. Haven't seen their product in the market for a while, I guess it's due to the COVID-19. Hope they can survive this difficult time and look forward to buying tons of their product again.“

“Great service, friendly And food very fresh!“

“I've witnessed these guys get pricier and pricier but that still doesn't stop me from coming. At this point I've tried everything on their menu but I honestly just keep coming back for the tostadas and the tacos. They're probably the best to go spot in the area. Just try to avoid coming here when the Roosevelt ave bar scene is alive and poppin' cus otherwise it's not really Taco Veloz“

“They have the BEST CHICKEN GYRO EVER!!! and I've eaten gyro from other halal food carts in Columbus Circle, Times Square and in front of the MoMa and no one comes close to Madina's chicken. The guy that works on the weekends is the best and is very generous and gives you just the right amount of food not less like other places. I live 30 minutes away and I always come here and made it into a routine. And now they have numbers to call for pick and remodeled the cart.“

“Small hole-in-the-wall snack shop severing up authentic Chinese street food. Everyone loves the pan-fried dumping and buns but I think the meat pancakes are the best things here. They are overflowing with flavor. Must try if you are ever in the area.“

“Often when places increase their price they skimp out on the meat. Not this cart. You'll be getting your money's worth if you opt for any of the rice platters.Note: if you go during the day it might not be as good as the one from the night. The guy on the night shift (after 10 pm) makes it better.“

“Finally a place in Chicagoland that does the Halal chicken and rice the right way. I also tried the chop cheese which was authentic out of Brooklyn. This is the only place doing it right in the area. Today was probably my 8th time there since they’ve opened. Great place, keep it up. *The other new place is all show and no taste or class for that matter.“

“Nice ambiance by the water“
