I finally made it to BK JANI in Manhattan and tried their signature Jahni Burger, and it was definitely worth the trip. The burger came on a sesame seed bun with a perfectly charred patty, topped simply with red onions and a flavorful sauce that added a nice tang and creaminess without overwhelming the meat. The patty itself was juicy and well-seasoned, with that smoky, slightly spiced flavor that sets it apart from your standard burger. The fries were another highlight—crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and dusted with a seasoning blend that made them addicting. Everything felt thoughtfully prepared, and while the burger is on the minimalist side in terms of toppings, it lets the patty and seasoning really shine. Overall, this is a great spot for a burger that’s unique and bold without being overcomplicated. Solid 4 stars from me—delicious food with just a couple of small tweaks that could push it into 5-star territory.

Had the grilled sandwich, barely ate half of it and threw out the rest... terrible. Sweet potato fries were ok.

Delicious food! Can’t beat the lunch special. Some of the best burgers I’ve had in midtown. Their sweet potato fries are also perfection.
This is a glorified bun kebab. May be worth trying for some but as a tourist, there are better halal burger options. And $14-18 is overpriced for a burger.

The menu is extensive - with so many good choices. Their dishes showed cooking expertise. This place creates a positive mood. The personnel were nice and knew their menu. I highly recommend it.
I ordered a medium well burger and it was rare. My takeout came with dirty napkins and no fork for the salad. The chicken sandwich was so spicy (and I like spice but this was one-note and not good). Other than it being fast, it was awful and expensive.

Expensive, but excellent burger worth the hype. Too a while, but cooked to order medium rare. Solid bun, and mint chutney got a kick, as well formed an isolation layer for the juices. Definitely an indulgent meal to be ordered sparingly.

I ordered the chicken sandwich and it was amazing. The entire menu looked incredible, and I’m definitely coming back to try more. Awais, the worker who served me, was super friendly and helpful. Great service all around. Highly recommend BK JANI!
