Food Stands near Long Island City, NY

“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.“

“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.“

“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“

“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!“

“$4.25 for a small container of thick, chewy rice noodle rolls with fresh, perfectly cooked, shrimp and an egg! Breakfast of Champions! No line when I went around 9am and service was fast and efficient. No chitchat but I wasn't there for small talk ? After I recieved my order, I took a few steps back and just dug in! Yum! Great cheap eats in NYC! ?“

“Just passing by and purchased two Onigiri (prim and salmon). They’re very delicious and will come back for sure. The quality of steamed white rice is excellent!“

“These guys are the best halal cart I’ve had in the city. You know it’s good when there are a few carts within blocks, but these guys get lines in front of theirs daily. The locals know it’s worth the short wait. They are very pleasant happy people as well!“

“Excellent Singaporean restaurant inside Urban Hawker. I got the chicken cutlet curry rice and it was fantastic; highly recommend. I also tried the lychee drink, and while it was good, it was not carbonated and I really feel it would benefit from being so.“

“In love with this place could eat here everyday omg I dream about this place often the sauces the ribs the chicharrones omg so crispy so juicy can’t wait to have the brisket they was out when I went but most def soon will try, oh and the freaking corn bread beyond amazing“

“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!“

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

“Woohoo this was awesome! After wandering around all the stalls I settled on the #5, the noodle with pork ribs, and it was so good. It came with some prawn broth (I think) and a huge plate of hot noodles mixed with veggies and tofu, and two nice pork ribs. The pork ribs were topped with a creamy sauce and red roe, and were super juicy. Everything was delicious!“

“Had it at City point Dekalb Market
The chicken was so good, tender and tasty with nice rice. Vegetables were fresh too and the hot soup!! It reminds me the one I had in local place.

People there are very nice too!! Will come back again ~“

“My partner has been talking about the Dosa man in NYC for a longggg time! We finally made a trip to NY and NY Dosas was our first stop. Waited in line for an hour and honestly it was so worth it. It was a beautiful sunny day in Washington square park when we went so it made waiting more enjoyable. Plenty of places to sit on the benches of the park. Make sure to ask for extra napkins because it can get a little messy. Sambar and coconut chutney are great! Any time I come back to NYC I'll be visiting the Dosa Man! ❤️🪷 Updated from previous review on 2025-04-22“

“Best halal food in the area“

“If you are like me and have not had delicious barbecue for a long time, you will probably find it quite good. It feels like a Cantonese barbecue flavor. The pork is a salty barbecued pork, and the king of kings is also a little salty. Others I ordered include beef, mutton, gluten, and chicken hearts, which were both good! I love charcoal grilling + fresh grilling. Remember to bring cash!“

“Easily the best Halal Food Truck in the area. The person running the truck (possibly the owner) is the nicest man around! Friendly, conversational, caring and genuine. I love when his truck is outside my work, makes my day, even if I just get to pass by and say hi!

10/10 highly recommend!“

“Great dou hua/do fu fa for a great price ($3 for a large) If you want extra syrup, it's extra 25 cents. I also get the mochi stuffed with red bean or peanut, about 7 pieces for $6. You used to get 8 pieces for $6 but inflation happened. I've always wanted to try the soymilk and the fresh rice noodles. Next time, for sure. The listing says she's there until 630pm but once she sells out, she leaves, so dont expect her to be there at 6pm. I'd suggest getting there in the morning or Early afternoon if you want to be able to try everything.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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 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.“

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

“As i am eating these rice noodles, can’t express how lucky i feel finding this cart. Was looking for a close by and quick to go breakfast. The rice noodles are super smooth. Lady selling is the very down to earth kind,honest and no non-sense. I bought a large size noodle with fish balls with sauce for 2 people. Everything was steaming hot. Brings back childhood memories.

Wheelchair accessibility: Just on the street, very accessible.“

“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😄“

“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.“

“I don’t buy Mobile Cart food much , but this one was good . I just had a 5 min break and didn’t have time to go to a restaurant to order food . Rafiqis had no customers and quickly went and ordered. The price on Tyne right side of the truck isn’t the right amount . They increased the price and had a different rate on the front of the cart ..

Got felafel over rice .. felafel was fresh ….i actually liked their saffron rice . It was fresh and tasted good . They gave it with salad and some sauce on the top. Costed about 11$ , which isn’t bad . Quantity of rice was small but it was good enough ! My friends had lamb over rice and they liked it . Good experience overall …“
