Halal Restaurants near Sunnyside, NY

“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.“

“I recommend giving this place a chance by eating their food at the location. Never got lucky with ordering take out. At the location though, food is pretty good and portions are sufficient. Service is very amateur but who cares, you go there for food.“

“I recently visited food street at Secaucus and had an amazing experience. Despite the menu being on smaller side, everything that we tried was delicious.I went with their signature Hangry beef Burger and it did not disappoint. The patty was cooked to perfection—juicy, flavorful, and tender.
The staff were friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better.
Overall, street food is definitely worth a visit.I’ll definitely be back!“

“Lagman Express offers delicious, authentic flavors with standout dishes like their signature lagman noodles. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make it a welcoming spot. Great portions, reasonable prices—highly recommend for a unique and tasty dining experience!“

“If you’re looking for delicious, authentic halal food, this food truck is an absolute must-try! The flavors are incredible, with every bite bursting with freshness and spice. The portion sizes are generous, and the quality of the meat is top-notch. The staff is friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. 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!“

“Let me emphasize this, NOBODY and I do mean NOBODY, makes a delicious bowl the way Tacobees do. I live far and order with extra charges through Ubereats because it’s just that good and worth every penny. I get burritos the size of a tiny baby. I should know because I’ve had tiny humans before and those burritos are at least 2lbs or more lol.

The way the burritos and bowls are made, is just so good. They don’t skimp out on anything. It’ll be full to the absolute brim. Their queso and guac is hands down the best out of all other chains (Chipotle, Moe’s and Qdoba.) The steak and honey chicken is just chefs kiss. I love how my delivery is also always warm and the most important part, correct. They just get me and can take my check any weekend!“

“If you want your halal food made quickly and with quality come here. You can get any platter over rice for 10 dollars with a canned soda and fries included. They have a big selection with fair prices and the employees are respectful / hard working. Only thing I didn’t like was that the fries are skinnier than pictured on the menu but man was that chicken over rice so good“

“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.“

“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 have tried lamb over rice. My expectation was more over the taste of lamb. I think they should try more to make it a tasty one. French fries were ok. Salad was nothing special. Overall they should try more to make it something better than their competitors.“

“Absolutely phenomenal. Best Indian restaurant in NYC by a large margin. The biryani was so flavorful and full of spice, the chutneys were great, and the marinated chicken was so tender and flavorful it puts others to shame. Top it off with amazing service and a cool vibe. Ill be back to try everything on the menu“

“June 26, 2022. Walked to get our order of a Lamb wrap, chicken wrap and fries. First time there and a welcome place to the neighborhood. The staff are friendly, the place is new and clean and most important the food is very good. Will return many times. Check it out.“

“Clean and well organized business. The girl at the front is friendly and good at her job. The best Philly Cheesesteak! I have also tried the Chicky Fries combo and that was excellent. I also like the Chicken Cheesesteak sandwich. Can’t wait to try their Wings as I just heard great things from my co-worker!

“Absolutely PHENOMENAL food. We got a family platter of chicken and rice and a side of jerk chicken. It was the best food I’ve had in a very long time.

Salad was delicious, everything was fresh and wrapped so perfectly. The sauces were so yummy, I’d eat here every damn day if I could.“

“The food was amazing, I ordered the falafel sandwich which was $8 and the chicken over rice which was also $8. Both were well made and the portions were generous. This is a bang for your buck considering how expensive meals are in this area. They even have a green sauce available that they make themselves.

Kazi himself despite a bit of a language barrier is an awesome person to speak to, he is generous in terms of helping his clients out both in pricing and with his sympathy. The service is awesome and overall I would recommend this halal cart/food to anyone out there!“

“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.“

“great food and great prices“

“As a customer at Gyros & Wings Paradise, I have to say, it’s become my new favorite spot! The moment I walked in, the delicious smells hit me, and I couldn’t wait to dig in. I started with the gyro, and it was fantastic—perfectly seasoned meat with a generous portion of tzatziki sauce, wrapped in a warm, fluffy pita. The flavor was spot on, and I could tell everything was fresh.“

“Great service I recently went because a friend recommended and was not disappointed I ordered the beef gyro sandwich very good would recommend.“

“Great place with friendly staff and amazing food. Always our go to place for something authentic and reminds us of home!“

“Delicious food.Best service.Thank you.“

“These guys are the best halal cart I’ve had in the city. You know it’s good when there are a few carts within blocks, but these guys get lines in front of theirs daily. The locals know it’s worth the short wait. They are very pleasant happy people as well!“

“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!“

“BEST WINGS IN NYC !!!!

I got the buffalo hot & told ack to mix it with the Thai chili sauce, GAHTTTTTTT, MASHAALLAH !!!! They were the best wings I’ve ever tried, I can’t even lie. Crispy, tender, flavorful, they surprised me. Wife got the lamb platter & said it’s the best she’s had. They really do cook back there with love & effort. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!!“

“Food is great and service is always amazing!“

“We drove out of town for this restaurant and it was well worth it. The mint lemonade drink has the perfect balance of sweet and sour and the food was delicious. The food is especially perfect for larger crowds that want to share food. The staff are very friendly and fast in getting your order and bringing out the food to you. I also really admired the beautiful decor inside. If we lived closer we definitely would come to this restaurant all the time but since it is a very long drive we still plan on coming at least once a month.“

“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“

“Here’s a 5-star review for your dish:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely phenomenal! The flavors in this dish are perfectly balanced—tender, juicy meat paired with fragrant, well-seasoned rice and beautifully cooked vegetables. The rich aroma and authentic taste make every bite a delight. The fresh salad adds a refreshing contrast, and the warm, soft bread is the perfect complement. This meal is a true masterpiece of flavor and presentation. Highly recommended!“

“I’ve gone to this restaurant before under the supervision of the previous owners and I loved it, but now I am blown away! With what the new owners have done with the place I can see this place booming in no time. They have a large vegan selection which is perfect for my family and I, and it’s actually great tasting vegan food which is rare to find. I tried the meatless shawarma in the Grape Leaf Bowl and wow… it is incredible. The presentation was very nice and the flavor is amazing. 10/10 I will definitely be returning here again soon. Wonderful “addition” to the neighborhood!

Vegetarian options: The following items are vegan; Beyond Kafta, Meatless Shawarma, Falafel and the Vegetable Kabob.“

“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“

“I really appreciate that Fevy’s offers halal chicken for Muslim customers, and the quality is top-notch. You can tell the chicken is fresh from its texture and cleanliness. The fried chicken is incredibly crispy, and the buldak chicken with cheese was absolutely delicious, though be warned—it’s quite spicy! The portion sizes are generous as well. The kimchi fried rice was decent, but it had a strong sesame oil flavor that might not be for everyone. The fries were a highlight—crispy and fresh. The iced tea, however, wasn't sweet enough for my taste. I also tried a sauce that was labeled as spicy, but it leaned more on the sweet side, which wasn’t what I was expecting. It would be great if there was a way to sample all the sauces without having to buy each one separately. The service was friendly and enthusiastic, which made the experience even more enjoyable.“

“I’ve now had food from here 4x and it is delicious. It’s consistent for both pickup and delivery, and platters and gyros are equally tasty and generous. Chicken, lamb & falafel all excellent! Overall I find it a little lighter than most halal I’ve had in NYC and the pickled onions take it over the top. I can’t recommend enough!

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a roll up window that I used with my baby stroller!“

“Got the tenders and fries, the chicken was super juicy and tender and the seasoning on it was enough to eat in its own but the sauces brought it to another level. The fries were crispy on the outside fluffy on the inside and also seasoned to perfection. This is a must go if youre in the area“

“I ordered takeout from Kulchay recently and had a positive experience. The woman working there was incredibly friendly and helpful while I waited. I tried their signature naanizza which is a fusion of naan and pizza. Both the chicken tikka and super supreme naanizzas were delicious. Even though I got stuck in traffic and had to reheat them at home, they still tasted great although I imagine they would be even better fresh out of the oven. I also tried the halwa naan for dessert which was decent but not something I would order again. All the food here is halal and I definitely plan to come back to try more items from their menu.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​“

“This was my first time trying Dave’s Hot Chicken, and it definitely did not disappoint! I had the Dave’s #2 with medium spice, which was absolutely perfect. I’ve never had a chicken sandwich this good—huge compliments to the chefs!

As a pickle fan, I really appreciated the extra pickles—such a great touch. If Dave’s were to expand to more countries in Europe, I have no doubt it would be a huge success.

The only downside was that the location felt a bit messy and unclean, but given that it was during rush hour and it's a fast-food spot, it wasn’t a big deal. Overall, a fantastic experience—highly recommended!“

“They have good food“

“Sadiya was amazing thankyou so much for the amzing service and delghtful food“

“Good ?“

“The food is nothing short of amazing – packed with flavor, fresh ingredients, and perfectly cooked. The portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food you get. If you're looking for authentic halal food with great service, this food truck is a must-try!“

“Amazing people and amazing food!
Love ordering from here :)

Kid-friendliness: Food is always delicious and the staff is so nice! Order here like every other day. Not great for my wallet but amazing for my stomach!“

“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.“

“The food was simply awesome, fresh and super tasty 😋 Enjoyed a lot there as their friendly attitude just made us feel we’re at home not in a restaurant. This was our 1st visit here, Inn shaa Allah will keep coming again and again.“

“Very good halal. The combo over rice was delicious. The chopped pita and the loyalty cards are the best parts of this place. However I do wish the pita was a bit more grilled and I wish the salad had a bit more in it and maybe some more variety in vegetables. I know that’s not standard for halal cart but I do think that is what would make this a 10/10 for me instead of 9/10. Nonetheless though very delicious and I recommend trying if you’re in the area.“

“What a deal and it was great food. There is another Mido cart nearby that was empty (nobody ordering food), so I don’t know what’s going on there, but the food here was great. I had the lamb and chicken on rice with salad. I had white sauce and a but of barbecue sauce with red sauce on the side. For under $10 including tax, it’s one of the best deals you can get. No photos for this review because I ate all the food before I realized I hadn’t taken a photo. It’s great for a late night munch.“

“Good People - Great Food - just Go! Food so Fresh!“

“This noodle joint is a hidden gem in Queens!

Nestled in Rego Park, Uyghur Lagman House offers freshly made, authentic, and halal Uyghur dishes that are as delicious as they are unique! Im so glad I finally tried it! From their house-made noodles to sizzling specialties, every item on the menu is packed with rich, unforgettable flavors. For a genuine taste of Uyghur cuisine, this is the place to be!

Started with their Uyghur manta & Samsa which were so good followed by their special Lagman & Scallion lamb! Everything was truly amazing! Great service too!“

“We broke fast here & when I say everything thing was top tier from the food to the service and when we received the bill we were so surprised because it was so inexpensive for such amazing food & service! We definitely will be back to support and will spread the word.“

“Khorasan Kabab in Metuchen has quickly become one of our favorite restaurants. From the moment you step in, the warm and welcoming hospitality is palpable. The food is outstanding, the overall experience exudes authenticity, and the price point is exceedingly reasonable. Every dish I have tried has been delicious, and every visit has been memorable. They have surprised us with extra kebabs in our leftover box, complimentary chai, and additional food in a catering order, showcasing their exceptional hospitality. On my mother's birthday, one of the owners even made a special prayer for her, which was an extraordinary and unique gift I have never experienced at any other restaurant.

I highly recommend this restaurant and encourage everyone to try it and support.“

“I always come here for chicken over rice when I’m low on cash but need a good meal. Always quick, cheap af ($7 exactly. For reference, a cart nearby sells for $12 + tax), and tastes great. The dude is always so kind and make sure the order is served how you want.“
