Fast Food Restaurants near Rockaway Beach

“This is the best McDonald's I've ever been to! Every single time I order a sandwich, they make it completely different that what I ordered. I am always very pleased to find out that I didn't get what I ordered and that they just seem to take incentive and make my sandwich how they feel like. They always keep me second-guessing myself, and I get pleasantly surprised by trying new things that I would never order myself! Just the other day, I ordered a double cheese with 2 extra patties, lettuce, tomato, and extra pickles and onions with light mayo. They gave me a double cheese with bacon, no lettuce or onions, no extra patties, 2 pickles and bacon with extra mayo. And I loved it! 10 stars!“

“I want to thank Melissa C. Because last night my food was missing items when I got home & I truly appreciate her NOT giving me a hard time about it. She replaced it and offered a drink. That’s the kind of customer service that makes me want to spend money with a business. And for that kind gesture- I got in line and purchased some more food to go. Thanks again for that Melissa!“

“Great customer service and delicious salads and other food .“

“Visiting New York from Barcelona, I had a great experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious and well-prepared , the service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was welcoming. I would definitely recommend it to both locals and visitors looking for a quality dining experience in NYC.“

“This restaurant is a very clean friendly neighborhood place, where everyone feels welcome and the food is good and the prices are reasonable.“

“Just tried Much N Out in Brooklyn and I’m impressed! The food was absolutely delicious — everything was flavorful and cooked just right. On top of that, the portions were super generous, so you definitely get your money’s worth. I’ll definitely be back!“

“i order from here often and their food is so good & it’s halal! everything i’ve eaten from here has tasted fresh & well seasoned. They close around 2 am and always add new stuff/combos to the menu. Just picked this up before they closed. They are also very nice & have always had great manners. Me & my dad go here all the time lol“

“The best of the best 🙌🏻 I definitely recommend everyone to come check this place out 🔥“

“My first time having the impossible burger here today and it was the best decision I made . The tots had magnificent sauce that came with it and i recommend having the wuu sauce . This will be a regular forme starting today , the service here was definitely one to remember shout outs to Scott !!!!“

“love this place! Food is amazing everytime, and the service is great even with how busy they are. Keep up the great work!“

“Taco Bell is always a solid choice! The food is flavorful, affordable, and there’s so much variety on the menu that there’s something for everyone. The Crunchwraps, tacos, and burritos are consistently tasty, and I love how easy it is to customize orders. Service is amazing and usually quick, even during busy hours, which makes it perfect for a fast meal. Highly recommend! 🌮“

“great location. perfect size. food is on point 💥💯🇪🇨 great portions and I jave never been disappointed! com on Come All!“

“Hajveri is a wonderful new Pakistani restaurant that truly feels like home. Everything is freshly made and full of flavor. We ordered the sheesh kebabs, samosas, lunch special naan with aloo gobi and aloo palak, and the chicken biryani. Every dish was delicious and tasted homemade.

What stood out most was how fresh and comforting the food felt—it honestly reminded me of meals my mom would make. The flavors were authentic, the portions were satisfying, and you can tell a lot of care goes into the cooking.

I’m so glad to have found this place and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend supporting this new local gem!“

“Food is always great but its been about 7 times that I have went and the fried chicken has run out, and it takes 15-20 minutes for it to cook. I feel like they need to better manage the timing. Once they see that the chicken on display is half gone, they should already start frying a new batch instead of waiting for the last min where there's less than 10 pieces for them to now start frying the new batch. Also they have a limit on breast they fried in each batch. So if the few pieces are gone, you will now have to wait for the new batch to fry and that can take over 45 mins, especially if they are not ready to fry a batch. Other than that, the food is great and the staff are also very friendly.“

“Absolutely love this place! Great food, friendly people and excellent service.“

“Very nice Popeye's“

“Awesome service and delicious food. definitely 5 star Deli“

“I recently visited **Shah’s Halal in Elmont**, and I have to say, this location truly exceeded my expectations. From the moment I walked in, the environment felt spacious, clean, and very welcoming. It’s the kind of place where you immediately feel comfortable dining in, whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down with family or friends. The availability of **free parking** is another huge plus, especially in an area where parking can sometimes be a challenge.

Now, the food—absolutely delicious. Everything I tried was flavorful, fresh, and cooked perfectly. The **wings were the highlight** for me. They were mouthwatering, tender, and came in a variety of flavors that really stood out. You can tell they put effort into seasoning and preparation rather than just serving something basic. The platters and sandwiches were also well‑portioned, satisfying, and reasonably priced, which makes the whole experience even better.

The staff deserves special mention. The employees were extremely **friendly, polite, and helpful** throughout my visit. They greeted customers warmly, answered questions with patience, and made sure orders were prepared quickly and accurately. The **service was fast**, but never rushed, and the positive attitude of the team added to the overall experience.

Overall, Shah’s Halal Elmont delivers on taste, service, cleanliness, and value. It’s a spot I would happily return to and recommend to anyone looking for delicious halal food with great customer service. A truly enjoyable experience from start to finish.“

“I got lunch there today and loved it!“

“Busy family in NYC- can’t drive to the shop to get your meat? Don’t hesitate! Most fresh (I’m very picky!) and tasty halal meat, superbly vacuum sealed with awesome immediate customer service if we ever had questions about our order. You will not regret :-)“

“Classic Brooklyn joint serving one of the best roast beef sandwiches in town! But I would have to say the western burger also packs a solid punch. You can’t go wrong with any of the items here honestly. But our go to’s are always the roast beef sandwich, western beef burger, crown fritters, chicken wings, and orangeade drink! You also have the option to put cheese on anything! If you have a young one, ask one of the cashiers for a free ballon. If happens to be your birthday, you get to spin the giant wheel for a chance to win $5-$20 prize for next time use. Also, if you spend more than $45 per order, you can get a free pizza. The inside dining area seems like it’s still stuck in the 1990s, but I’m fine with that!“

“food was amazing , tastes really good. i got the 4 pc hot honey boneless wings, a spicy chicken sandwich, and some fries, and all of it was amazing. i loved the fries in particular: crispy and very well seasoned. Service was great too: food came fast, and staff was very friendly. the establishment is very clean and looks great on the inside , room for sitting and eating . I will definitely be back very soon.

“My first visit to White Castle at this location turned out to be a really pleasant experience. I placed my order through the app as soon as I walked in, and by the time I got settled, it was ready within moments super convenient and efficient.

The dining area was clean, spacious, and comfortable, which made it easy to relax while waiting. The staff came across as friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall positive vibe. I did notice there are two restrooms available, though they require an employee to unlock them, which is something to keep in mind.

One standout detail for me was the open kitchen setup you can actually see your food being prepared right in front of you, which I thought was a really cool touch. The beverage machines are on the customer side as well, so drinks are self-serve, making the process quick and easy.

Most importantly, the food came out hot and fresh, just how it should be. Overall, this was a solid experience, and I’ll definitely be coming back again.“

“I’ve been eating here for the last month now , Nice environment to be honest.. the staff is always fast and respectful to me and I had the best Salmond and natural fries in Brooklyn in a long while I had to tell my self I gotta be grabbing food from here atleast twice a week lol“

“Tried it today after contemplating for a while. The server answered any questions I had and has a very friendly and approachable demeanor.Coming from the Island background of Jamaica I tried the Curry chicken wrap. It was so good, it didn't need no sauce. The server recommended the Butter chicken, and I came back 2 hours later to try it and he remembered my order. The food is freshly made to order. Very impressed! This will be my new lunch/breakfast spot.“

“Perfect roasted chicken for your entire family. They have family combos of whole roasted chicken, rice, beans, sweet plantains and avocado salad perfect for family of four.“

“best poke bowl I have ever tasted, nice service is totally plus :), luv the presentation as well“

“Had a double smash with fries. 100 percent recommended. this place is awesome.“

“darbar have very great service and prices, we always cater fried chicken from their for big events and even their other dishes such as fried rice. low mein and chicken sandwiches, lamb burgers are very great, their food is well flavored and fresh..“

“The establishment offers fresh cuisine and is staffed by exceptional individuals, contributing to an outstanding overall ambiance. My experience with the chicken over rice was excellent, and the staff demonstrated remarkable attentiveness in processing my order. Furthermore, the pricing is quite competitive given the quality of the offerings.“

“muy bueno el pollo frito y el pollo asado“

“The cashier tried her best, but her English was a bit limited. She should study a little more.
We came to celebrate Father's Day, but we couldn't stay because it was too hot. In the middle of summer, the air conditioning was off or broken, wow.
They didn't even put napkins in our bag.“

“I love this place. Very good price for the quality. I always order their chicken salad because they are generous with the ingredients and it‘s pretty good. The curly fries, fried chicken and burgers are really good. They also have a delicious “piece of cake” ice cream. The people who work there are nice and respectful.“

“I ordered for pickup. When I got home the one of the things I ordered was incorrect. I called them and they redid it immediately. The staff is friendly, professional, polite and efficient. Orders are ready quickly. And most important, the food was absolutely delicious!!!“

“The Philly cheesesteak, it ain’t Philly but it’s GOOD! The family gold wings taste like sticky wings from Dallas bbq, top tier. The fries are coated in old bay if you like that. I didn’t care too much for the burger. The sweet chili is also a good flavor. Most importantly, the wings are crispier than burnt toast. Crisp to perfection“

“Delicious 🤤 Grilled Lamb chop was perfectly cooked as we wanted Different taste of wings was mouth watering Staff was very friendly 😊 Highly recommended“

“We need Jollibee here to build in Showlow Az“

“Modern and clean location, staff is friendly and polite. My main complaint is the chicken still has fatty parts or is not being cooked throughly, two separate occasions I haven’t been able to eat it without feeling like im chewing on a tire and then spitting it out. Though I will say the quality of the ingredients is very good, just get the quality control of the meats in check and id come here every week!“

“This the best Subway restaurants in Queens, NY. They build great sandwiches and do their best keeping the ingredients fresh!The staff great you as you arrive and after getting food there a few times they will remember you. The manager and staff are polite, pleasent and are excellent in serving the customers. They try their best to keep the eating area clean, but there are some very sloppy patrons that leave all their refuse on the tables, but the workers clear away quickly. I try my best to come here only for my sandwiches... Thank you for being wonderful☺🥰“

“The first time I came here rodger helped me and was so nice. The music was on it was a vibe, if I were to close my eyes with the nice hospitality the food and the music you would swear I was on a beach somewhere.
Then the second time I got help from Dylan , twice because I decided to come back and be extra , he was very professional and informative on the frozen drinks, and the orders. I'm really Greatful to have good customer service in new york
It's hard to find these days , but you can find it here! Thanks guys!“

“If you’re craving some seriously good fried chicken, you have to check out Tex Chicken and Burgers. Their spicy fried chicken is hands down some of the best I’ve ever had: crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. Every bite hits just right, and the spice level is perfect, not too overwhelming but definitely brings the heat. (I love spicy food :))

What really makes this place stand out, though, is the customer service. Deep and his team are absolutely incredible. Deep is always so kind, professional, and genuinely sweet — you can tell he really cares about making sure every customer leaves happy. He goes above and beyond, every time. It’s rare to find service like that these days.

Super clean, fast service, and food that always hits the spot. Highly recommend this place. IMO better than Popeyes!“

“write a positive review for Popeyes 50 words

Popeyes serves crispy, flavorful chicken with that bold Louisiana seasoning people crave. The biscuits are warm and buttery, the sides are satisfying, and the service is usually fast and friendly. It’s a reliable spot for a filling meal that always hits the spot.“

“Part of my rating is just a celebration that they even *have* buffalo sauce, but also the chicken and fries were both the good crispy kind.
5 tender combo meal, $13, really not a bad price. I thought the buffalo sauce wasn’t like the best ever, but it also was fine and I was glad to have it. Default for a 5 piece should prob be two sauces. Thats all!
I’ll def be back.“

“My kid and I are literally still sitting here with a full belly and smile on our faces. The cashier is amazing and attentive, the food came out hot and DELICIOUS, the customized cherry coke and limeade slushy is also AMAZING. To top it off, they put 2 mints inside the bag for after we eat. We've tried Dunkn donuts and Burger King in the neighborhood but the workers there are slow(both ways) and the food always takes too long and comes out wrong or burnt. Sonic is our new favorite place to eat!!!!!“

“In case your wondering why I would give Taco Bell 5 stars (it is this particular location). I understand quality and service vary wildly by location, but I have been coming here for about 20 years now with about 5 year gaps in between. I don't eat Taco Bell much, but every time I go to this location in Lynbrook on Merrick Rd., they always have good customer service. Yes, the employee rotation changes throughout the years, but all that served me were great. The food is always good here and the stock of condiments are always full. This restaurant looks clean every time I go. This time I ordered from the self serve kiosk and the employee in his personal conversation with another customer still stopped to ask if I needed help. I ordered a chicken burrito and taco with Frank's hot sauce on it.“

“Based on the name A&A Bake Doubles and Roti I figured I had to order some doubles so I got a veggie one for $3. They asked me a bunch of simple questions about what I wanted on it and I panicked and somehow got it with pumpkin which I hate. The doubles are pretty messy to eat so luckily they give you substantial napkins instead of those single ply deli ones. I also got an aloo pie for $2.50 which I've never had before and seems to be a donut with potato filling (an excellent invention for those of us who don't like sweet breakfast).“

“I worked around the area briefly. It is not easy looking for food spot around here in walking distance. Especially when you don't want to eat subway, dunkin donuts, and popeyes for lunch which are in the area. I wanted to support smaller businesses instead. A lot of other businesses had a long wait.

Every day, I was looking for food spot with a reasonable wait time and pay. Then I tried this place. This was perfect. I ordered a few combos and the worker was polite. The combo was also super affordable option.“

“Wonder has been one of our most consistent go-tos. Pickup is usually easy, the system works, the space is clean, and the food has honestly surprised me from day one. When they first opened, it felt like every order was dialed in, like the kitchen cared.

I’ve tried a ton of the menu and there are staples I keep coming back to: the salmon is always generously portioned and perfectly cooked, the sauces and capers are on point, and the broccolini is genuinely one of the best sides I’ve had anywhere - that char + acidity goes with everything. Even the simple stuff like fries and potatoes hit when they’re done right.

That’s why I’m leaving this review: lately I’ve had a stretch of 5-6 orders with small misses that didn’t used to happen - missing toppings, uneven pizzas, a pizza with a huge bubble, broccolini missing the lemon dressing, stuff like that. Not enough to stop ordering, but enough that it makes me stick to the “safe” items instead of exploring.

Still a big fan, still ordering regularly, just hoping the consistency snaps back to how it was because Wonder at its best is hard to beat.“

“The orders are made fresh.
The soda machine doesn't work properly the day of my visit, the ice was served on the side and when I asked for more the guy makes some faces.
The place keeps an old fashion style but they can improve the lights and the cleanliness of the place.
The service was fast, but the staff were rude and if you ask for something they make faces or give you attitude.“

“This place dots into our neighborhood so nicely. The energy and music is always so amazing. The staff is kind and already feels like family. The manager Ahmad and his staff go above and beyond. I am excited to see them excel in this community!“
