50 Best Fast Food Restaurants in New York

“The Best burguer i tasted 😍“

“Delicious fries, friendly staff, and it’s super fun to try the different sauces! I loved bringing my daughter here when she was small and then heading right over to Washington Square.“

“I was wildly impressed by how much flavor was into these paratha wraps! I got the spicy chicken mayo and was honestly shook by howwww good it was. The chicken was super juicy, too. It’s totally self-service, which is fine, though I’m not the biggest fan of how technology is taking over everything. The only other downside was the dubstep blasting in the background, not exactly what I want to listen to while eating, lol. But besides that, the food was gooooood!“

“best french fries 🍟my kids loved it we will be back“

“Hands down the BEST halal food in Manhattan. We had them cater our wedding and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how delicious the food was. It’s our favorite late night restaurant in our neighborhood and we knew we needed them on the menu for our wedding. Huge thanks to the staff for the care of our special order, and our weekly orders :)“

“Good food with a price you cannot beat.“

“Only the best Chicken Shop in NYC 🥰“

“Me and my boyfriend ordered a chicken slider combo; it comes with two sliders, fries, and a drink for only 7.99 and you can add an extra soda for a dollar and some change! As well as some mozzarella sticks, everything was fresh and tasty ! Would definitely come back and recommend!“

“My wife and I visited Handcraft Burgers and Brews for my birthday this past weekend. As soon as my wife opened the menu she knew that I was going to have to try the burger of the month which was a peanut butter and grape jelly topped hamburger with jalapenos, bacon and cheese. Admittedly I have never had peanut butter and jelly on a burger before but I figured I would try something new and see what all of the hype was about. Turns out, I loved it! Every bite was so flavorful and completely made my birthday lunch a worthwhile venture! We also tried the tater tots, because who doesn't love a good tater tot. We could have chosen from multiple dipping sauces but we decided to go with the garlic aioli and I am glad we did. I dipped each of my tater tots in the sauce and there was plenty for both of us to share. We were helped by Vanessa at the restaurant and she was very accommodating when I was having trouble using a coupon that I had for my birthday. All in all this was a wonderful choice for my birthday lunch and when we are in the area again I would definitely stop by and perhaps try the latest burger of the month along with some tater tots and garlic aioli dipping sauce of course!“

“This spot is absolutely amazing. I’m there so many times, and every time i’m treated with love and respect. The food is amazing, top notch on their quality, fresh and hot always. Amazing selection and beautiful vibe with a cozy atmosphere. I recommend highly, and when you go, I promise you won’t be disappointed.“

“Only the best Chicken Shop in NYC 🥰“

“I got chicken over rice for $12 hands down best deal I’ve had in all of NYC as a foodie. It was my first time experiencing halal food so I asked bunch of questions to the guys at the line and they were very chill; they described all the toppings that I pointed to and gave me a GENEROUS PORTION. Chicken was well seasoned and tender, rice was also seasoned and chickpeas and hummus were decently fresh; everything tasted good even on the next day. This fed me for easily two days! It was truly amazing that I can get chicken,rice,fries(shocking for me) and veggie of choice for only $12 was so impressive. I’m definitely going back.“

“The food comes out super quick, and is delicious! The staff are super helpful and efficient, providing quick and great service throughout every visit. Whenever I can, I make sure to stop by this specific location just because of the atmosphere! I love to have my lunch at the rooftop.“

“Best Chick Fil-A in the city!! The staff exceeds expectations for customer satisfaction. A special shoutout to Alexis for not only her upkeep at the dining area but her smile and energy. As New Yorkers, we are always faced with stress from our job and personal life, it feels great to go to a place not just to eat but to feel welcomed by a warm & hard-working team.“

“Mangia is one of the BEST corporate catering in nyc delivering fresh, delicious meals.“

“Great experience on a Saturday night. Staff was friendly and quick to help. They were polite and the service was fast and fresh.

Honestly in a city where customer service is hit or miss, the Raising Canes union square Saturday night staff, do fast food the way it's meant to be!“

“豉油王大蝦、軟殼蟹、炸魚仔、豉油王炒麵、勁多薑蓉嘅白切雞、三餸嘅菜。“

“Great late night place to grab a bite.“

“I got the chopped chicken fries and I have to say, it was amazing! The chicken was cooked nice and tender, the fries were perfectly crispy and salty, and the sauce... PERFECTLY tangy and it added a nice touch that enhanced the chicken and fries flavor“

“The Crispy Chicken Sandwich was absolutely delicious! The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside while remaining tender and juicy inside. The fresh sauce complemented the sandwich well, and the bun was soft and fresh. Every bite had a great balance of texture and flavor. It arrived hot and well-prepared, making for a very satisfying meal. I would definitely order this again and recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good chicken sandwich.“

“Very friendly staff and excellent food“

“Visited NYC from the UK and already planned to eat here after seeing the food posts and reviews and it didn’t disappoint ! Food was beyond amazing with loads of choice and huge portions. Was so good we visited twice during our short stay visit. A definite place to go if you want good vegan food 👌“

“I went with my bro to try this chicken spot and it was top. I ordered the big back burger and it crushed !! The combination of all the toppings plus the special big back sauce was so good. My bro ordered the Alito fries , I tried some of the chicken - soft and tasty. We shared waffles and chicken as well. The waffles were great. The plus thing - all of it was halal! I definitely would recommend anyone to eat here and I will be visiting again soon!“

“Hamburguesas deliciosas y las papas con salsa de queso!!!!“

“Great food!! Went there for the first time!“

“Their cheese and pepperoni isn’t the best, but their magic is in all the other slices. Highly recommend the Mucho Macho (my absolute favorite slice in the entire city) or the BBQ one. I’m not a fan of sweet BBQ, but this slice hits and is GOOD. The sausage with green peppers and garlic is also tasty.“

“Went to the one in Charlottesville Virginia. By far one of my favorite chicken restaurants. Just need a raising canes in Harrisonburg Virginia and that would be perfect.“

“Ray has so many delicious food choices.Deep fried oreos,deep fried twinkies,The egg creams are sinfully good as well as the soft serve ice cream.My favorite are the belgian fries.“

“Great burger, not too big and crinkle cut fries. Perfect.“

“Tucked into the buzzing streets of Hell’s Kitchen, Famous Halal Foods delivers exactly what New York street food is known for with its bold flavors, generous portions, and a personal touch that stays with you.

We went for their combo over rice, a hearty mix of tender chicken and flavorful meat served with rice, veggies, fries, and their signature sauces. The portion size was more than satisfying, and every bite packed a punch.

The combo gyro were equally impressive, well-stuffed, perfectly balanced, and ideal for a quick grab-and-go meal without compromising on taste. The flavors leaned toward the spicier side especially since we opted for extra spicy sauce but it only elevated the experience for those who enjoy a bit of heat.

What truly sets this place apart, was Mohammad Salim who the man behind the counter. His passion for cooking shines through in every dish. Warm, friendly, and genuinely hospitable, he went the extra mile by offering us bottled water without us even asking. It’s rare to see someone who treats food not just as a business, but as a craft and a way to connect with people.

If you’re in the area and craving a quick, delicious, and soulful meal, this spot is absolutely worth a visit.“

“Me encantan las hamburguesas y el servicio es rápido y excelente“

“Yakisoba tastes almost the same in Tokyo street food!!!!! Love it!! okonimiyaki is also good! The chicken (karaage style) is also a must try. Another thing i like is they prepare the food fresh. Can’t wait to visit again. :)“

“Ivan was polite and efficient he went above and beyond to make sure the large order was correct and remembered the small details of 9 sandwiches the service was the best subway is lucky to have Ivan as an worker one day soon hopefully he will be an owner he has what it takes productive & positive it’s the best subway location in the city especially when Ivan is working 🫡🥳“

“Well! All I can say is “I felt like Home”. Super cozy vibe, great service and excellent food combos. Cheers to the team! 🍛“

“Came during the winter months, they had heaters which was great to stand under. The food was pretty good, I saw it was $10 on Instagram but there prices changed to $12-15. For that price the portions feel too small. Plus side, the food matches the Google photos.“

You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and the experience they provide. Great food, warm atmosphere, and even better hospitality. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Highly recommending this food spot. The lady serving us with the hijab was so so nice and friendly. We ordered after just first ordering one corn dog two more because it was super tasty and really worth the hype. We had half sausage half cheese. Can’t wait to come back here“

“Food is always good. I have no complaints about that and the atmosphere is always good vibrations. Anytime I walk through the door. The cashier aren’t really friendly. I get it because if I work an 8hr. shift and it’s the end of the day. I’m tired too. But they can be a little more friendly, smile, and courteous. Everything else is great.“

“Top! Première fois à New-York et a 5 guys“

“One of the best food trucks in NYC. Absolutely delicious and fresh food. If I were to make a list of top 10 food trucks in New York this would for sure be on that list. They serve actual steak and their chicken is phenomenal. Highly recommend stopping by here and giving them a try“

“Mike’s Coffee and Deli is such a great local spot to start the day! The bagels are always fresh and soft, and the coffee is smooth and well brewed. The service is quick, the staff are friendly, and the whole place has a welcoming feel. Definitely a great go-to for breakfast or a morning coffee!“

“100 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ for United Fried Chicken.
It’s my first time trying, i order 9 pcs chicken with fries and chicken rice with the sauce on the side .
Usually other place will only give 1x2oz if i request sauce on the side, but here, they gave me 2x 4oz !!
This place so generous, even the fries !
My daughter is a picky eater, but they ate all the chicken rice without 1 pc rice left and my little one she loved the crunchiness from the chicken skin, they even liked the white sauce ❤
And also the owner so nice 👍
Highly recommended ❤“

“I was recommended by my husband that the food was delicious in a very clean truck this used to be on 6th Avenue, but now it's on, I think it's ninth. And Broadway, if I'm not mistaken.
It's cross from a CVS. The food was delicious clean and very tasteful, I will be back again.“
