Street Vendors near Jackson Heights, NY

“I ordered 3 tacos (the enchiladas, el pastor, and carnitas). Everything tastes fresh and flavorful. The meat wasn’t dry and flavorful less. It was a very quintessential Jackson Heights experience. I will definitely order from them again.“

“I absolutely love this place. The people are friendly and I've gotten to know them to the point where I just show up and they know my order. Although it's a cart, it feels like a neighborhood restaurant where you walk by and say hi and are greeted by smiles. This Is thr best chicken over rice and gyros in the area. The prices are amazing and the food is simply delicious. If you are in the neighborhood defenitly stop by!“

“Every time I eat here, it takes me back to when I was growing up. They started as a rice roll cart on Grand Street, and they've perfectly preserved that authentic street-cart taste.

The steamed rice rolls with curry fish balls are soft, chewy, and perfectly sauced with hot sauce and extra peanut sauce. Grab an iced Hong Kong milk tea to go with it.

Highly recommend for a true taste of old-school Chinatown!“

“Awesome place but biggest flaw is that they’re not actually open everyday, even if the weather is good. I passed by today at 8pm, weather was perfect and they weren’t there. I wish they had some way of letting people know if they’re not open for whatever reason, even if its just an instagram page of something“

“Impressive for a food cart and noodles were really fresh but honestly consistency was too chewy for me and not bouncy enough. Also I went into a carb coma after this and passed out for over an hour. I got the large fresh shrimp roll with an egg and chili and soy sauce ($8 total). When I went the line was short like 3 people in front of me. Idk if I would wait over 20 min for this tbh would say this is a 3.5 star“

“The cart has been here for years and still remains my favorite place to get take-out for rice noodles. They are completely made to order and the owners are super friendly, the noodles super delicious and budget friendly. There’s a variety of options/combinations/sauces you can get with your rice noodles and I honestly don’t think you can go wrong with any of them.“

“My girlfriend and I went here on Saturday it was a great experience and we both had a lot of fun. We arrived a little early before our scheduled start. The atmosphere was awesome! We sat at the bar for about a half hour and we each got a drink while we waited for our game to start. My girlfriend had Lime in the Coconut Collins and I had Paradise Love. Both drinks were good. They have a very easy to use coat check too. There are a total of 9 courses and each one is unique making for an exciting game of indoor mini golf! There are also servers who walk around and take your drink order and plentiful of convenient stations to set your drinks on while you play and wait for the party ahead of you.“

“Located in front of Paris Baguette, the BBQ truck has some of the best skewers I've ever tried. They transport you to the heart of Xinjiang with its local flavors, grilled in front of you. My two favorites were the lamb and beef skewers, and the chicken skewers were also very delicious.“

“Probably not the most appealing picture however this is a place I have been wanting to visit for a while. I paid in cash as I had seen many people mention the possibility of no cards being used, so I don't know if the service is available or not. It is a very small store. So there is not an area to eat.

The workers are very kind when I ordered the Jianbing, offering suggestions if you ask. You can add beef to it which I believe is an additional cost.

As for the jianbing, it is savory with hints of sweetness and delicious. It has added texture from the cracker inside which compliments the fluffy egg and crepe. The sweetness also helps balance the beef, which is very tender so it doesn't take too much effort to chew. The added cilantro and scallions gives a bit of freshness as you eat the crepe.

It is very hot when you receive it so I would recommend eating it as soon as possible so that the cracker does not get soft.
I look forward to the next time I can eat this again 😊“

“I’ll be upset if this place has a line next time I come but I’m going to expect it! The BEST fresh juice you will find in the area. Owner is an absolute sweetheart cracked jokes with us gave us recommendations! I ordered the go go mango, let me tell you guys. Freshest fruit possible, no sugar added at all, my family and I all took a sip, we genuinely took two steps away from the cart then turned back to buy another one. I’d highly recommend this spot to anyone in the city looking for something to revive you! After walking in the heat all day this is THE only spot you should be going to. Absolute gem 11/10 I know exactly where I’ll be next time I’m in the area.“

“lamb chicken combo plate was magnificent !“

“Great food! Big portions, finger-lickin good“

“Let’s put it this way, I get this at 9AM & not only is it super fresh its dam Good ���“

“Really enjoyed the takeout I ordered for delivery. The Royal Greens Salads are huge!!! I would say they're twice as big as other salads chains. I wish it was easier though to know the dietary info for the salad dressings as I could not tell which ones were vegan. I love that you can choose your own protein and swap some of the toppings or build your own. I also got the green tofu curry dish from SriPraPhai as well. The sauce was incredibly flavor and I liked the amount of kick it had. It was spicy but not too spicy for me atleast. I do wish it had more tofu in it though as it felt very sauce heavy. I would order takeout from here again especially if I was getting food with someone who wanted something different then me. I appreciate the free delivery and the amazing portion sizes. It's nice to be able to order multiple cuisines as well.“

“The food here competes with the very best spots. The meals demonstrate evident superiority. The staff showed consistent table awareness. The design choices here are refreshingly unique. Really happy with my meal. I can't wait to return for other menu items.“

“The flavors here keep calling me back whenever I'm nearby. Their menu combines quality and service with sensible pricing. The staff performed exactly as expected at this quality restaurant. They serve just enough for the right cost. Tasty food options, considerate staff, and a nice setting make this restaurant good.“

“I got to try some unique global flavors at this fair: NOLA crawfish sandwich from Parish Po'Boys and a Raclette melt baguette sandwich from Raclette Street. Both costed about $20 so keep that in mind if you are used to the lower prices at Queen’s Night Market.“

“Always been a fan of halal food carts since they are affordable and filling at the same time. This cart in particular offers a buy 10 get 1 free card/promotion their food is also consistent and well prepared in front of you as well, highly recommended this spot for the best bang for your buck“

“Bacang/Zongzi Vendor offers a simple yet authentic taste of traditional Chinese sticky rice dumplings. The bacang are warm, flavorful, and generously filled, making for a comforting and satisfying snack. It’s a humble street-style option that delivers great value and a genuine local experience in NYC.“

“Every time we come to NYC, Kwik Meal is a must. The food is always warm and taste so good. We typically eat here every night. It’s a great price for the amount of food that you receive.“

“Quick, fresh and efficient street food! The rice noodle rolls and the fish balls were delicious especially drenched in the sauces. It seems to be a local favourite because there were decent amount of customers in and out. I would come back again for this.“

“Si estas en NY tienes que ir Comer ponerle todas las salsas y tomarte una foto cool 😎“

“I love their food and the lady is super sweet! The baby I nanny and I always go to get lunch or say hi! The crab fried rice is the best and the pad se ew! Also I’m obsessed with their Thai iced coffee . Another plus….its super affordable !“

“Take the number 6 green line uptown ((Pelham Bay Park), and get off at Zerega Avenue and grab a good meal from George's Diner, the staff are really friendly and welcoming, food is good, the portions are large, fast service and extremely reasonably priced. Authentic American Diner.“

“Best meatball sliders ever. Also had a lovely conversation with the very nice lady at the stand in smorgasburg yesterday. We will be back �“

“Delicious, fresh, & cheap- what’s not to love? I had the habichuelas con dulce to start & was not disappointed, it is really tasty. One of the employees there also let me sample other things which were equally as tasty. I’d definitely be back if I’m in the area.“

“lamb chicken combo plate was magnificent !“

“LOVE this stand! The best in NY! Support the vets who fought for our country! The food is fresh and perfect! 👌🏻“

“Love it! I had Lengua, El Pastor, spicy pork, they all tasted great and authentic street tacos! I didn’t care about the service, the lady was kinda delayed serving we even without people waiting. Anyway I was there for the taste and that ain’t changing my desire eating there.“

“Coming to visit my sister from Oregon to NYC and first time ordering from here and oh my god, I am hooked.

I got the Chorizo Breakfast Burrito and the coffee and every bite is so well combined with one another: the potatoes, tomatoes and eggs. Chef's Kiss! And the coffee fills it all the way to the rim. Just amazing“

“Mmmmmmm taste sooo good I been on my diet lately and every cheat day that I have 3 times a week this is my go to place I love this cart so much the hot sauce is soo good he better bottle that up best believe ima buy that the guy in the front is so kind he is my king halal ? he always give me extra forks and napkins I use them for when my man comes over and we be eatin his food together like a little date night situation“

“Best Greek food in nyc Worth the lines“

“Waffles were delicious definitely recommend nyc 🍦“

“Really good, the spices and seasoning are strong enough and it’s like $2 a skewer with so many options. I always get the lamb, the potatoes (which taste like seasoned chips), and other meats. The fish balls are soft on the inside, with a roasted crust on the outside - actually good too! It’s also spicy too, but not too spicy (probably like pickled jalapeño level?)“
