Food Stands in New York, NY

“I went to a lot of restaurants in New York that were much fancier than this cart but this was my favorite food of the day. The cheong fun was gooey and had qq and a decent amount of meat. For $5 for the large, it was such a deal and fed three of us as a snack. I would go back in a heartbeat and order more. Wish we had this in Chinatown in Houston.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“stumbled upon this food truck at 95 Wall Street, and it was such a pleasant surprise! The service was quick and super friendly, which is perfect for the busy Wall Street crowd. The food was fresh, flavorful, and served hot—I could tell they really care about quality. Prices were reasonable, especially considering the generous portions. The menu had a great variety, so whether you’re in the mood for something light or hearty, you’ll find it here. Definitely one of the best lunch spots in the area. I’ll be coming back often!“

“Billy is the most amazing and nice guy! I arrived at the last minute before he closed and not only he was very nice, but did not allow me to pay for my hot dog. Simple, but great cleana and fresh hod dog to complement your walk in Central Park!“

“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“

“We came to fill our tummies with the best chicken rice in nyc (I’ve eaten pretty much every hainanese chicken rice there is in nyc, even Thai ones) but left with our hearts filled with warmth as well.

We can either our 1.5 yo daughter and upon realizing I was at the time alone with my daughter, he suggested we get a high chair which I was not aware was available. He went ahead and took the high chair for my kiddo and also went ahead to carry both trays of chicken rice to our table.

The kindness did not end there. During the meal, he noticed my daughter was not eating much of the chicken rice so he got his staff to come over to give us a half a bowl of chicken congee, which my daughter loved. He made sure the extra seasoning was put on the side instead which was a nice touch.

We were so touched by his actions and my wife was almost in tears by his kindness.

We gobbled down our chicken rice, my daughter finished most of the congee (which was also very tasty), thanked him and his staff for their kindness, and left with good vibes all over.

So if you ever see Christopher there, give that kind man a shoutout. What a wonderful human being. The world needs more Christophers. Be like him!“

“Great ambiance . Everyone should have a good time.“

“These are best tamales in NYC! 😋
Yolanda and her husband are the kindest people, true hard-working, loving, members of the community. And I've ordered ahead several times, to take to my family in Chicago, DC, etc. There are so many options, and you can get them spicy or not.
It's good to call ahead just to make sure it's a day they're at the corner. SOooo delicious, and I always feel happy after seeing them.“

“Best hot sauce in the city!“

“Such an underrated Halal food cart right at the heart of Wall Street Financial District. Rather than going out of your way to a fancy Middle Eastern/Mediterranean restaurant, I highly recommend stopping by the Continental Express Halal Guys.

This is your no-nonsense New York staple, the Halal street food, and they do it very well here.

I got the Combination Over Rice, which consists of lamb gyros and chicken over rice and slathered with that delicious, signature white sauce plus a generous dash of spicy red sauce to boot.

So how does it taste? Like a gushing waterfall of yummy, earthy flavor and spices in every bite! It may look like a relatively small box, but it's dense in taste.

And on top of that, this is only $7.00 cash or $7.95 with card! You get so much for your money and you leave with a full, satisfied stomach.

Finally, the guys working there are warm and friendly, too.“
