50 Best Food Trucks near Sunnyside

“Guys… I’ve been in NYC for almost 2 decades and been living on the block for just over 5yrs. This truck is truly elite. We’re blessed to have this gem in cozy little Sunnyside. Never been disappointed once. Usually get chicken or lamb over rice (or both) and it’s always an insane portion. Not to mention you can ask them for the $1 or $2 extra meat and they basically double the portion. Lamb is never dry no matter how slim the trompo is. Chicken is obviously dark meat and is always juicy. Falafel is on point, rice is textbook. Hats off to these guys. White/hot/BBQ for life 💪🏼“

“Today was my first time at Shah’s Halal Food & it was DELICIOUS!!! The portions & taste are great. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Took the kids for lunch and my goodness was the food fantastic! The portions were generous enough that my teenage son actually got full! The kids had the chicken fingers with fries and I had the Banh Mi. My sandwich was amazing!! Can't wait to go again!“

“Tasty and fresh Mexican dishes. Dishes to choose from with various additions: meat, fish, and vegetarian versions with cauliflower or tofu. Aromatic dishes, good looking, tasty, filling and warming, prepared on site in front of the customer in an open kitchen. Delicious spicy homemade sauces. Very polite service taking the order with a smile.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian dishes with cauliflower or tofu. Crispy tofu was unfortunately not crispy.“

“On behalf of the Teaneck High School c/o 2004 - 20 Year Reunion Committee we wanted to thank you again for helping to ensure that we had an amazing event.

Your dedication and exceptional service made our reunion a truly unforgettable experience.

The jerk chicken and herb fish was out of this world- including the rice and peas (some of the most flavorful we've EVER had) and the refreshing salad were truly A HIT! You absolutely have new customers all throughout Teaneck and beyond!

Your hard work and professionalism truly made our celebration amazing. We couldn't have done it without you!

Thank you again and we look forward to potentially working together in the the future!“

“Taco Tio is more than just a place to eat—it's a second home. The owners welcome you like family, and the warmth of their hospitality is matched only by the incredible flavors of their dishes. Every bite reflects their passion for authentic Mexican cuisine, from the fresh salsas to the mouthwatering enchiladas. The atmosphere is inviting, and you can always feel the love and care that goes into every meal. Dining here isn’t just a meal, it’s an experience of comfort, connection, and true culinary delight.“

Whether you’re craving a gyro, shawarma, or falafel, this place does it all perfectly. Fast service, great prices, and mouthwatering dishes—I’ll definitely be back for more! Highly recommend!“

“Shame on me for not visiting this food truck earlier. This is by far the best food truck for Italian sausage and Philly cheesesteak and only $12 each What a bargain.

Everything cooked right in front of you hot and fresh and did I mention the outstanding service the two gentleman in the truck provided. Both so warm and inviting, made me feel like a regular though it was my first time.

No doubt I will be back soon to try out the rest of the menu, including hotdogs and knishes.

Keep up the great work and serving great food.“

“Wonderful service. Courteous and professional above all and friendly to boot. The Food is delicious and with the added lunch menu of tacos is an extra delicious treat. During this Pandemic it's comforting to know we can depend on them fora quick & tasty breakfast . Supporting them during these trying times is extremely important as well. Im grateful and appreciative for them to continue working hard and providing this service to us. It doesn't go unnoticed. Thank You Family Coffee Truck🙏🏾🥰“

“Where is the 6-star button!? This is one of the best falafels that I've ever had. Sam makes the sandwiches to perfection - the falafels balls are made to order, the pita is filled with silky tahini, and the vegetables are perfectly crunchy. At $8 for a sandwich and $1 for a drink, it beats anything. If you want falafel, that's the one.“

“One of the best (arguably the best) falafel over rice i have had. Great taste and the guy is very generous when it comes to adding extra sauce or pita bread.

Vegetarian options: I just had falafel over rice that alone is wroth visiting this food truck again and again“

“I got the combination chapli and vanilla pudding. Worth the price. Fluffing amazing flavor.
Combination chapli has one chicken patty kebab and one beef patty with rice, fries, and salad. I personally could have lived without the fries.
Pudding is great.
Sorry for the posted photo, I ate most of the food.

Just try it. You won't regret it.“

“This cart is right off the Grand Ave Station so I usually stop by on my way home.

The person working is usually different everytime I go but they are all so kind! And they really pack in what they can into the to-go container. I guess it depends on how much you eat but it usually lasts me 2 meals.

They take both cash and card which is also really convenient.“

“Needed some late night tacos, didn’t expect much, totally blown away. These were better than any sit-down restaurant I’ve been to in ages. Perfect portion, tons of flavor in the chicken, friendly guys, fantastic price. Total hidden gem.“

“The food from this truck is absolutely delicious and clean, the people are very nice and hard working. My Father and I have been purchasing meals from here weekly. So far, we have tried falafel over rice, lamb, chicken, sandwiches, and fries. Good stuff. Open 24/7. 👍🏼 👍🏼“

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

“Excellent service, Fresh Food, Great Prices! Highly recommended“

“My first time having fuska at fuskahouse Yummm! Can’t explain how taste it was It reminded me my childhood fuskawala Great food & will recommend all my F& F.“

“Always fresh and delicious food options including Vegetarian choices. Chef Omer combines Turkish food specialties with Classical American street food. They have Gozleme (Turkish Pancake) with Cheese, Potato or Spinach, amazing grilled fresh fish, chicken gyro, falafel, tacos… Even Turkish Tea. Thank you for bringing this wonderful menu to us.

Vegetarian options: Gozleme, Falafel, Salad“

“I’ve been coming to this small business for about 3/4 years now and although it’s just a taco truck I know enough that all I have to do is pick up my order and eat it at my house or enjoy it with my partner at the nearby park. I’m not gonna make a review about the “environment” of a taco truck and make them feel obligated to my seating needs for that I’ll just to a RESTAURANT it’s a perfect grab and go. The staff is very friendly and hard working people, for as busy as they get their customer service is consistently great. I want to mention how hard it is to find authentic AL PASTOR TACOS that are supposed to be made like how they make it here. The tortilla is always fresh, the meat is seasoned perfectly and you can tell by the color on the meat and the salsa verde is also perfect if you are into spicy fresh homemade salsa just the right texture not watery like others that I’ve had around the area.“

“The Banh Mi Cart is my favorite part of working in the Financial District. They’re only open 4 hours a day but boy do they deliver! Hot, delicious ready-to-eat Vietnamese banh mi’s ? And the two uncles working the cart are super friendly and are the most honest, hardworking people I’ve met. I’ll have to try to get there earlier because the roasted pork banh mi is sold out everytime!“

“I've lived in the neighborhood for 2yrs and finally decided to Try this Restaurant and it hasn't disappointed me yet! I was confused on what dish to get so the cashier (young lady with glasses) recommended "Chicken TIkka" it's so yummy ? the food was hot and freshly cooked this is my third time visiting. I'll definitely be back to try more items off the menu. I Also like they are open lateeeeee“

“This is easily some of the best food I’ve had in the whole NYC area and definitely the best yakitori I’ve ever had. Each skewer was uniquely seasoned and delicious. Getting food here and sitting by the water to eat it is a perfect experience. Also the Hey Yogurt is right next to it, so it’s easy to get a yummy drink/dessert with the meal! Erotori does also offer a mochi dessert I’ll be sure to try next time“

“Great food and great people all around.“

“My wife and I had our dinner Saturday and Sunday from the truck at Pershing field. The food was great ?. The lamb was very good and the chicken was seasoned to perfection. Gyros were fresh and the rice and salad were so delicious ? we wish Adam's halal could be in Pershing field every day!“

“Amazing customer service and the food is phenomenal! Authentic Greek cuisine at its finest!! Definitely recommend!“

“What a gem. Got a chicken burrito and it was exactly what I wanted: plenty of chicken, loaded with rice and beans, good tortilla that they grilled just right. And the guys working the truck are super nice, overall great experience for the price.“

“Been here a few times now and can say quality and taste is consistently delicious, the flavor is top notch and is the best falafel and halal cart food I’ve ever had. Ahmed the owner is super genuine and cares a lot about his quality and service. 10/10 spot“

“Los mejores tacos que he comido en mi vida!“

“Update: Tried this place again and I gotta change my review from 4 stars to 5. Got a combo over rice with extra meat and it was packed. More importantly though, it was delicious. I don't know if it's because I was hungry but the food I got yesterday was made really good, so much so that I'd actually say this cart is among the top 5 halal places I'd recommend. There seemed to be more lamb this time, like 60% chicken to 40% lamb but I didn't mind it much because the chicken was very juicy and flavorful. It felt like I was eating heaven and this might be my new go-to but given that it's a little of a way from my house, I don't know if I'd be coming here often. What I do know is that it's right in front of the hospital and if I worked around there, I'd be getting even fatter. For the purposes of my health, it's probably a good thing that I don't live too close to this cart. 10/10

Original review: Got a combo over rice and despite costing $1 more than the chicken over rice, the combo was basically 90% chicken and 10% lamb so it was basically a chicken over rice with a few lamb pieces sprinkled in. Despite me feeling ripped off, the chicken over rice was actually quite good. Chicken was tasty and well seasoned and I'd say that this is definitely one of the better halal carts out there in the area. Not the best but pretty good, and the prices weren't terrible.“

“Phenomenal birthday cake for my mom. Light yet not too airy, great natural flavors and perfect balance of icing and cake. Also, you don’t feel bad after eating it. It’s just sweet enough that it’s satisfying, yet it’s not overpowering at all.

The only thing more phenomenal than the cake is the owner, Melissa. A chat with her will make your day. She is a real one and a good soul. We’ve got to protect her at all costs!

Go to this bakery ASAP!“

“I love her delicious Fresh Salmon along with her home made specialty kraut. She is perfect for parties special events concerts and her C S is lovng and kind.“

“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.“

“This truck is the closest I've come to eating true, authentic Venezuelan food in years. Everything I've had here is fresh and so flavorful, you can tell the ingredients are of the best quality.

Food aside, the people that work it are welcoming and so sweet! If you're not Venezuelan they take the time to walk you through the menu/give recs, and if you are Venezuelan they are a much needed dose of home. Everything is delicious, but the cachapas and tequeños are unreal.

Could no recommend enough!!!!

Vegetarian options: A lot of dishes are corn based with cheese, most items can be adapted to be vegetarian.“

“Los mejores tacos de Nueva York“

“Los mejores tacos 🌮 que e probado aquí“

“I only ate one burger, but it was the best burger I've ever had. The only downside is that the top bun was fine, but the bottom bun was so wet that it was very difficult to hold by hand. If you go to Central Park, you must eat it. After eating, your hands will be covered in grease, so be sure to take something like wet wipes with you. I had a hard time without it.“

“This food truck serves some of the heartiest momo on the streets of Jackson Heights. We got 8 thick and meaty beef momo for $8 at Amdo Kitchen. The go-to sauces here are the red sauce and white sauce. The halal momo are complimented with a thicker, chewier dough than other momos - it takes me three bites to finish each one. Amdo Momo is a favorite for those looking for an authentic taste of Tibetan cuisine. Don't forget to ask for the side of radish!“

“This food truck always has a line - for good reasons. Have tried their burger and kale salad - both were fantastic. Can't wait to try more items on their menu. Price is reasonable and service is always friendly. Go - you won't regret it.“

“Good ?“

“I have been going to Tommy's food truck for the past 15 years, and I have to say that I have never had a meal that wasn't short of great!! From the grilled Chicken Caesar wrap to the Bacon cheeseburger ( On my cheat days of course;)). This food truck brings a taste of home to the streets of the West side. Tommy, and Armando treat every customer as if they were family. In a city with many food carts and trucks this is one place that's a must!!!“

“Had the sausage and peppers and broccoli rabe empanadas. Excellent. Freeze well, too“

“The New England Clam Chowder with crab added to it was TO DIE FOR….. Got a container at The Herald Square Market to eat when i got home and I was in Heaven with every bite! Fresh and creamy, awesome taste and the crab meat added just intensified the experience! I’m visiting New York from TN and it was one of my best meals so far! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“Some of the best cleanest chimis I've had in over a decade, and they must get the ketchup and mayo imported from DR because I was transported from that first bite, the quipe was a 10/10 and the homemade hot sauce brought it to and 11/10. I really hope the guys keep doing what they're doing because it's great and I want a place I know I can rely on.“

“Got the chicken over rice here and wasn't expecting much but was surprised by the value and taste. The serving was more than enough for two people and the taste was good. He even put in extra sauce and salad for us. No nonsense and definitely would recommend this food truck if you're looking for halal food in SoHo.“
