“Best halal place in the area. I've been a loyal customer for a while now, and ever since the change in management, the food is consistently delicious, fresh, and served quickly. They’re always welcoming and make sure that everything is just right. It's clear that they care about their customers, and it shows in both the service and the food. Highly recommend!“

“Clean - Friendly - Caring - Amazing Prices!
The best in town! We need more ATL spots opened up. Thank you so much Hamid. They were extremely busy and also had a bunch of callouts today. They worked quickly to get all orders out and apologized to every customer. They also gave me free donuts! Thank you so much guys! #ATLFAMILY4LIFE“

“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.“

“Came here around 12:45Am and got a triple mix platter. Just finished eating it and it was by far the best halal I’ve had. None of the other halal spots in the area even come close. On top of that the dude who served me and cooked the food was extremely nice and helpful. Even at midnight, the food was hot and cooked fresh. Will definitely be coming back here often“

“Not to be dramatic, but this is straight up one of the absolute best burgers I've had in my life. I was passing through the area for work, and saw that this place was nearby and had good reviews. Ordered a burger and fries, and it was all mouth-wateringly delicious. It was so good, that I ordered two more burgers to-go for my family 4 hours north. ? 1000/10 Would stop here again.“

“My partner and I were in the area and decided to give Afridi's halal cart a try. We ordered a combo over rice and a chicken over rice, and we devoured both platters. The food was absolutely delicious, and I'd probably make my way out there again just for more. While waiting, the cart cook gave us samplers of the meat with the different sauces. He was pleasant to speak with and, overall, a genuinely kind person.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“We have been looking for somewhere in nassau that makes shwarma and finally found Halal Kebab. Food was fresh, and flavorful! The prices are very reasonable.The very nice gentleman helping me gave me a rice pudding on the house when I said it was my first time there. Im glad to have found this gem of a restaurant, and will definitely be back to check out the rest of their food.“

“Best HALAL chicken sandwich on Long Island HANDS DOWN. So delicious and the staff is very nice and it’s located so conveniently next to Hofstra. My friends and I are always here when we need a break from classes and need some good food worth the price. I wish they made it nicer inside though with an AC and comfortable seating while students hang out with their friends or families eat together.“

“Great new Halal place in the neighborhood that sells delicious Halal over Rice or pita as well as Tikkas, Koftas and Falafel. These are large portions as well. In addition they have wings, burgers, wraps, milkshakes, ice cream, and kulfi.
The inside is very clean and they have a good amount of seating.
I recently got the Chicken Kofta over Rice and Salad and a bit of pita. Really delicious and a large portion. I saw a couple of people there who were eating the Halal Chicken over rice, and the Falafel over Rice. It seemed like a large portion. The cooks and the grill is behind a glass window near the entrance, where you can see them making it, as well as the toppings and sauces you want to add to your meal.
I think this is my new go to Halal spot in the neighborhood.“

“The Jerk chicken platter and hot wings make this halal stand out compared to others. Always have to get one or the other. The fried fish is amazing as well. The Halal eats burger is fine dining quality.
The portions is outstanding for the price. Never been disappointed with any item.
There is a wait time for items that are not a platter due to being made fresh to order so be prepared for that.
I hope this place keeps its quality and stays open forever.
Parking: The store front is located on a corner with both sides being a no-standing bus stop. But it is Queens so of course if you’re just going to pick up the food it’s perfectly fine. But during busy times those spots may be taken which leads to parking all the way down by Dunkin’ Donuts or in the parking lot of Stop & Shop across the street.
I’be never had an issue but something to be aware of if you’re not from the area.“

“I was there last night and I was giving the cashier a hard time because I didn’t know what I wanted to try because it was my first time. Derricka was very kind by recommending the loaded fries and the sauce to use. I don’t regret eating such tasteful meal. It was fire halhal bros rosedale at all times. If you haven’t tried it this is your go ahead. Fresh and taste food. Customer service 5🎖️“

“The food and price are unmatched. For ONLY 8 dollars I got lamb over rice AND the meal included a free soda! The halal carts around my neighborhood stopped the free soda and hiked up the prices YEARS AGO. I HIGHLY recommend the place! Also, the man working the halal cart has a nice flirtatious charm to him! Tip the man!“

“I ordered takeout for my family of 4 and food was PHENOMENAL! The food was hot, fresh, and temperature controlled. I hate it when restaurants put salad and the hot food in the same tray. They did NOT do this. We got the lamb chops, chicken tikka and lamb tikka. They were tender and juicy! Rice was fresh and the salad crisp. Run, do not walk lol, & try them. You wont be disappointed.“

“Loook here over here TEX and listen closely. I’m a regular and I use Uber eats to get my order delivered. Your chicken is amazing, the chicken sandwiches too, not to mention the fries. BUT I AM extremely disappointed when you got rid of the 15pc wings meal that comes with two fries. Now it’s 7pc. BRING IT BACK PLEASE ??. ☹️I never spend less than $70 at your establishment. I deserve this much. Bring back the wings.“

“Came in once last week and once yesterday, a bit later during the night. Since it was this late on a Sunday I didn’t expect the food to taste that fresh. Despite this, I still got my order tasting fresh and arriving quick (<5 mins) and could see workers diligently cleaning in the kitchen and a younger man wiping down all the tables, sweeping the floors and cleaning the bathroom. I had went inside the bathroom after he was done and it was spotless, something I would never expect to see from a fast food place. The manager was very nice and I could tell he’s trained his workers well. Will be coming agian.“
“The 4.8 stars on this place it’s real and it’s true. The food is delicious it’s just perfect, I tried their $8 combination rice comes with a soda and it was just amazing. If you like pita bread ask him to add some and he will do at no extra cost. This place is perfect if your like me who was waiting on family arriving at the airport. Go here!“

“Food is alright. Prices are slightly higher than that of other halal carts in the area for the same quality. It's 7.99 a platter (I don't get why they don't just round up to 8, they never give you back the 1 cent in change anyway). Comes with a free soda but obviously the price covers that so not really free. I think they should charge $7 per platter and the extra dollar if someone wants to buy a drink. Lamb didn't really hit my craving for lamb, maybe it's a lower quality lamb. Food is made really fast.“

“Sahara Grill is, without a doubt, the best halal food cart here in Hillside, Queens! I’ve been coming here to try all the carts for over 10 years, and I can confidently say that no other cart in the area comes close. There are three other halal carts around, but they simply don’t measure up. The difference is clear – while those other spots have rude staff and serve chicken over rice that often lacks flavor or even smells off, Sahara Grill gets everything just right. Every time I come here, I know I’m getting quality food made with care.
The chicken over rice at Sahara Grill is amazing – it’s packed with flavor, the spices are perfectly balanced, and you can tell it’s fresh with every bite. They give generous portions, too, so you really feel like you’re getting great value for your money. The rice is fluffy, the chicken is juicy, and everything is topped off with just the right amount of sauce. It’s a simple meal, but they make it so well that it stands out.
On my last visit, Hicham, who was working the cart, was incredibly kind and helpful. He made sure my order was exactly how I wanted it and took the time to make me feel valued as a customer. His friendliness and attention to detail really made the experience special. I ordered two chicken over rices, and they were both amazing – just as flavorful and fresh as always.
The only downside? This spot doesn’t seem to get as much attention as it deserves. I rarely see many other customers, which is a shame because this place is a true find. If you’re in Queens and craving some amazing halal food, don’t waste your time anywhere else. Sahara Grill is the place to go – highly recommend it!
Parking: One of the best things about Sahara Grill is the convenience of the parking. There’s a large, spacious parking lot right next to the cart, so finding a spot is never an issue. It’s easy to pull in, park, and enjoy your food without any hassle. The big parking lot makes it super accessible, even during busier times, which is a huge plus compared to some of the other crowded spots in the area.“

“The food is absolutely amazing never had better wraps and fries anywhere, I highly recommend trying any wrap to your liking I always get the #23 but they are all out of this world and the sauces are one of a kind! Always good service, always good food, ALWAYS leave happy!“
“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.“
