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.“

“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!“

“If you’re looking for one of the best gyro spots in downtown Bowling Green, Continental Gyro is a must-visit. The food is always fresh, the gyros are packed with flavor, and the portions are generous. The staff is friendly, and the service is quick. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this place is definitely worth a stop. Highly recommended!“

“This was some of the best Halal food I’ve ever had, their name speaks for itself. The service was kind and quick. I got a combo plate over rice with all the sauces. It was so good I wish I got it again before leaving NY. I would definitely recommend them any day!“

“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!“

“I've tried a handful of spots at Urban Hawker, but this one might just be my favorite.

I've tried their Chicken Cutlet Curry Rice and their Grilled Chicken Curry Rice. Both are so good. I can see why their curry sauce is in half their menu lol. The curry is not too spicy, and the flavors just hit. It pairs really well with the chicken, whether grilled or cutlet. They also add an immense amount of cabbage. I am a big fan of vegetables, so I always love when restaurants give generous portions of it in a dish.

I'm honestly so stoked to come back and try their Hainanese Fish and Chips (saw many great reviews about).“

“The long queues are very justifiable. Waited for 30 mins for the masala dosa and the taste instantly hit home! Highly appreciate Thiru making the guests comfortable and mind you he speaks more than 4 languages haha! Such a great experience overall!“

“Quick, fresh and efficient street food! The rice noodle rolls and the fish balls were delicious especially drenched in the sauces. It seems to be a local favourite because there were decent amount of customers in and out. I would come back again for this.“

“Presented with Very warm welcoming staff with a fresh crispy Falafel on the start.
I ordered chicken over rice with salad
No doubt salad was fresh and white sauce made it awesome in tasty but chicken wasn’t cook well. Could be better but over all joyful experience .“

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

“Big Boss Halal food cart is the BEST! Not only is the food delicious, but the owner Faisel is the nicest, kindest man you’ll ever meet who provides amazing service and does it with a smile. He has a heart of gold! I have a very sensitive stomach and usually street cart food give me GI issues, but not this food. It’s truly AMAZING!“

“Big plus for me is the variety in the salad. Chick peas, corn, onion,black beans and tomato. Service was quick (and it was a decently long line) and friendly.

Only loses a star for being a little stingy on the meat portion“

“Was grabbing food at another stall at the Urban Hawker center & stopped by here just to try the char kway teow. It was absolutely delicious, better and more authentic than other places I’ve been to. Would highly recommend trying it out.“

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

“Hainan Jones – Delicious Singapore Chicken & Rice!

I tried the combo with roasted chicken and steamed chicken, and my wife ordered the steamed chicken rice. Both were moist, tender, and full of flavor — exactly what you want from authentic Hainanese chicken rice. The portion size was perfect for one person, and the meal came with a warm cup of chicken soup and steamed vegetables, which made it even better. Everything tasted fresh and satisfying. We really enjoyed our meal and would definitely come back!“

“Absolutely 💯 loved my visit to Wafels and Dinges. I went to the Upper West Side branch, right next to American Museum of Natural History.

The staff was very sweet, nice, kind, chatty and warm. She was kind enough to give us samples before we placed our order.

It was fifa 2026 so they had the game also on. The cafe was lucky for us because the team I support scored 2 goals while we were there at the cafe.

I highly recommend this cafe for waffles and desserts.“

“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 …“

“This place stands the test of time with its reliable quality. Staff offers a friendly welcome to all visitors. The menu balances delicious options, fresh ingredients, and attractive presentation. Despite size constraints, this place stays busy. You should try their complete selection.“

“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.“

“amazing experience! every time I'm in the city i have to make a stop at Gyrohouse“

“good food delicious food“

“Best hot sauce in the city!“

“The food was absolutely fantastic! Kare Kare and Sinigang were just stellar! The sylvanas tasted like home. We always come here and always will continue to come! You can tell all of the people working there really put a lot of effort into their dishes and I can’t appreciate it enough!“

“Stayed right around the corner from the Times Square location 3 times. After trying them the first time, made it a point to always swing by there at least once to grab a bunch to take home. I love meat, but the portobello surprised the heck out of me- out of this world! Must stop by if you have time. They travel and reheat well, also!“

“From staff to food, every element worked together perfectly. Workers here deliver excellent, efficient attention with amazing cuisine. Their culinary execution is consistently superior. Tasty cooking, reasonable prices and truly attentive staff performance. Kabul Halal Food breaks the pattern of disappointment I've experienced.“

“A group of four of us met here after going to see the tree in Rockefeller Center. The restaurant was very quiet at 4:30pm when we arrived. We were met at the door, by a woman who was possibly a manager or owner, with a warm greeting and seated immediately. The service and food were both very good. The music was fun and upbeat but we could still hear each other talking. Great find! Would definitely recommend!“

“Highest quality halal food cart in the city! The owner always treats me right. The chicken over rice is amazing and the spicy/brown rice is the BEST in NYC.“

“These street carts were peppered all over NYC. Am unsure why certain carts have longer queues than the rest even though they were all from the same franchise. Nothing much to comment on the taste. I didn't like the mess on the plate which was heavily slathered in white sauce. Reasonably priced. Portions are huge.“

“Great food, and excellent coffee!“
