“I usually visit Dave’s Hot Chicken at 7th Ave Brooklyn.
This time we went so late that it was just 40 minutes left in closing and they had put all the tables and chairs away (means the dine in was closed already) but the girl at the counter was so nice that she not only allowed us to take the chairs and sit but also suggested us to rate them on app to get a free drink (everyone loves free stuff..right??)
The food and atmosphere is always always so good. We love to go there at least twice a month (as far from our place). Highly recommended especially if you are looking for some good halal food.“

“it was actually one of the best halal I’ve had. I’m not kidding. the cart, Halal Harlem, was established in 2002. the guy working it was a little slow but that’s bc his experienced hands will make your lamb gyro on pita with so much care. be patient and you’ll get the best halal you ever tasted. he didn’t skimp on the meat or veggies. there was onions, tomatoes, and lettuce!! some places give you lettuce and call it a day. He charges fair prices! I love Harlem Halal like I love the M116. with gratitude in my heart and wallet.“

“The reviews helped me find a great spot to dine!“

“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!“

“Great service!
We both got chix shawerma platters which comes with 2 sides. Heads up, they come with side salad, and we chose tabbouleh as one of the sides. Had we known about the side salad it came with already, we would have chosen a different side. We mentioned this to the gentleman at the register and he offered us another side. We got tzatziki and baba ghanoush! Both were delicious!!

Kudos to staff for offering, this is true hospitality.

Thank you Omars restaurant for an amazing meal and experience!!“

“Had to find a new place to eat halal after a bad experience at the 2nd Ave halal guys. The food here was way better and cheaper. You can't go wrong with Farook's. Also he provides a a loyalty card that gets you a free meal after 10 purchases. If you like spicy I recommend the green sauce and red sauce.“

“Love that the protein has veggies rather than the protein just by itself. Def more flavorful and not as dry as you'll find it on other halal carts (where you may heavily rely on the white sauce to deal with the dryness). Nice guy too, and if you want more or less veg just let him know.“

“Some of the best birria tacos I’ve had in Manhattan. The staff is friendly, patient, and very fast. What a wonderful place!“

“Food is delicious,specially halal food.“

“Tried Street Bites NYC today during my lunch break and it was so good! The meat was incredibly flavorful and tasted really fresh, super tender and perfectly seasoned. The bowl was packed with flavor and the sauces tied everything together really well.

The service was amazing too! The man working there was extremely kind and welcoming, which made the experience even better.

Definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the area. I’ll be coming back for sure!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect Halal Food NYC – A Must-Stop Food Truck!

If you’re in NYC and not stopping by Perfect Halal Food, you’re doing it wrong. This food truck is an absolute gem—serving up generous portions of some of the best halal food in the city.

Let’s talk about the chicken over rice first. One bite, and you’ll wonder why you ever ate anywhere else. The chicken? Tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The rice? The perfect balance of cinnamon and clove—fragrant but not overpowering. And the white sauce? Oh. My. Goodness. Creamy, tangy, and downright addictive.

Then there’s the lamb over rice—a game-changer. The lamb is seasoned to perfection, with just the right amount of spice to keep things interesting. The rice? Still that same fragrant, flavorful base. The white sauce and hot sauce together? A match made in food heaven—cool, creamy, and fiery all at once.

And let’s not forget the portions—enough to satisfy your hunger twice. Seriously, one plate is a full meal and then some.

Beyond the food, the truck itself is spotless—because who doesn’t appreciate a clean, well-run operation? The staff is friendly, efficient, and knows the menu inside and out.

Long story short: If you see this truck, run, don’t walk. Your taste buds (and your stomach) will thank you!“

“Long queues but only because the food’s so good. Simple menu offering chicken gyros, beef gyros or combo gyros, and the same options for a platter. Super yummy and they give you extra garlic sauce and spicy sauce in sachets with cutlery when you take it away. Speedy service and big portions too. Definitely recommend a visit especially if you’re staying at the New York Hilton Midtown (as it’s right outside!)“

“My first time going was last Friday right as they opened and I must say for my first time eating a Turkish dish, I was blown away. The service was on point and efficient as well as the plating of the food. I was in love with the portions too and even the bread was just so savory. I can say I have not one complaint about this place and highly recommend it to everyone.🥰“

“A good option that won't disappoint. The team balanced quickness, thoroughness, warmth and protocol. It's obvious they don't skimp on food quality. This place has created the perfect vibe. I consider myself fortunate to have found this spot.“

“First time trying both the Chicken & Beef Doner Boxes.I was pleasantly surprised how GOOD everything was! The flavourful meats with fresh veggies and feta, with or without sauces, all combined with the unique bread is a great new dinning experience unlike anything else. I highly recommend giving this a try ! We will definitely be return customers ! The ladies were quite helpful and informative about the food and it's history as well as super nice !“

“Halal Chicks never disappoints — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly spiced every time.
The portions are generous, and the chicken and lamb are always on point.
Their sauces take everything to the next level — especially the white and spicy ones.
Fast service, good prices, great owner— easily my go-to spot for takeout, specially after the gym!!!💪“

“The restaurant family extends beyond blood relations here. The food deserves praise. Fresh ingredients and nice people work here. Restaurant staff combine deep knowledge with outstanding customer care. People are right about Himalayan Curry House Restaurant and Bar - it delivers a superior experience.“

“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.“

“My husband and I went to Forefeathers tonight for dinner, it was excellent. The chicken tenders were delicious, the pink dipping sauce was very good. The chicken sandwich that my husband had to amazing! Coleslaw was delicious, plenty of sauce and pickles. Fries were excellent….definitely will go back.“

“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.“

“Food is great and service is always amazing!“

“I’ve tried over a dozen Halal carts in the city, and this one has by far the best chicken over rice. Once you try it, you’ll go out of your way to come here every time you crave halal.

The chicken is juicy and always perfectly flavored and cooked. All ingredients are fresh. The sauces are great, and the red sauce is VERY spicy (love it)

The folks running it are super friendly and the cart is kept clean.

I’m legitimately concerned that once people find out about this place, there will lines around the block. It’s one viral TikTok away from becoming an overcrowded tourist spot.“

“I am a chicken girl and can completely without reservation recommend any and all chicken dishes and sandwiches on the menu. I have had them all over and over. Also the French fries and green salad. They are my go to usually twice a week.Believe the listed menu needs to be updated price wise but still the best deals in town. A HuGE plus you have the Richard Tucker (google him) Park right across the street for seating. Linda“
