50 Best Food Trucks near Woodside

“(3.8/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️)Local late night taco truck ! You can’t go wrong if you want some Mexican during late hours. Over all I don’t think they’re out of this world - I don’t think they’re bad. I think they’re a convenient taco truck. I tried birria tonight but I’ve had their tacos quesadillas and tostadas.“

“Delicious tamales right underneath the Woodside - 61 St station for 7 train and LIRR. Got two salsa verde tamales for $2 and they were fresh, spicy, and delicious, with tender chicken and great salsa. Delicious to have hot tamales during winter. Great value; will definitely be coming back to try the mole tamales.“

“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🙏🏾🥰“

“First time at Coney Shack and I’m already hooked. This spot is such a cool blend of Vietnamese flavors with street food vibes, and everything we tried hit the mark.

We started with the crispy fish tacos—super light, crunchy, and packed with flavor. The lemongrass chicken banh mi tacos were my personal favorite: juicy, perfectly seasoned, and with just enough heat to keep things interesting. You can tell they’re not afraid to play around with flavor while still keeping the balance right.

The vibe inside is casual and fun—bright, energetic, and perfect for grabbing food with friends. Staff was super friendly and patient while we figured out what to order (so many good options!).

Prices are very fair for the quality, and the portions are generous. Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving something bold and different. I’m already planning to come back to try the short rib quesadilla everyone raves about.“

“I got the chicken over rice. Solid quality chicken.

Whoever was running the cart looked pretty tired in the heat :(. Nonetheless, he was still very attentive and kind!

Very quick. Will be back! Thanks so much!“

“By Far The Best authentic Jamaican Food ever .. since i discovered this food truck i no longer eat at any local Jamaican restaurants due to the freshness and quality of the food !!! 10/10 all the time hands down no matter the dish … Thanks for such the great hospitality and food all the time !!! Rooting for your restaurant because i know it will be outstanding & Food will remain the same with The love you put into it… AS you Would say Peace and Love 💕🫶🏾“

“They’re absolutely amazing! The best in parkchester ! Some might say the best in nyc. The food is always great and has a warming feel like your mom made your favorite Sunday dinner. If you’re in parkchester don’t forget to stop by and give them a try you won’t regret it!“

“I grew up in NYC so I’m no stranger to halal carts. Since I’ve moved to JC (which I know is only across the river, but the food scene really is different), I have yet to find my go-to halal spot… until now! I paid $10 for a chicken over rice. The chicken was so juicy and they were very generous with the chicken and sauce. So delicious but also so dangerous that I’m so close by“

“Worth the wait worth the trip food from D’Angelo‘s is absolutely phenomenal You can’t go wrong with anything you order from them. Only down side I should’ve ordered extra to take home cause of how far they are other than that this place is highly recommended.“

“Love this halal cart! Only when they have the spicy rice! I was very sad when the ran out of spicy rice one time but when they have it, this is my favorite halal cart to get a combo. It’s real Delicious lamb. And I love the sprinkle of broccoli.“

“Reliable. Literally a fixture in the park. Prices have gone up but that’s everywhere. I remember when it was 4/5 dollars. Now it’s 9! Fine.
Portion size was good. Makes it worth it.
Hot sauce is spicey.
Can of soda only 1 dollar.
No line. Plenty of bench seating in the park.“

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

“5/5
Food, taste, prices, portions. Everything is 5+stars.
We ordered Philly cheese steak, chicken burger w/ fries and chicken & lamb on rice and it all tasted so delicious and cooked to the right temperature and so fresh.
So glad that our vacation in NJ included eating at this yummy food cart.“

“Just the best Mexican food In NYC“

“whether you stop by at lunch rush or late evening, the food comes out hot, flavorful, and filling. The staff is quick and friendly, and even when the line looks long, it moves fast. Prices are very reasonable for Midtown, especially considering the portion size you won’t leave hungry.“

“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“

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

“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.“

“Their lamb/beef gyro was really good. The bowl was stuffed! The wait was a bit long though, almost 25+ minutes just to get to order, and sometimes other people (I assume related) just cut in to throw in 5 or 10 other orders. The food came out very fast at least and I enjoyed my bowl. I see they have an online ordering site, so I may try that next time to reduce the wait. Would love to try the other items.“

“Los mejores tacos de Nueva York“

“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“

“This is delicious Crown Heights street food. Open late if your ambling home from a bar and need some filling food to put you to bed. Or in our case, wanting a Sunday night 10pm taco after driving 8 hours. We had tacos al pastor and birrierria - EXCELLENT. Fresh little double corn tortilla tacos with the radish and lime. Also, excellent sauces. Loved the green hot sauce.“

“The owner of worker of this truck is a godsend! I couldn’t figure out how to put coins in the meter and he offered to pay and did for me with his coins and refused my pay back. He is such a genuine man and deserves all of the business. When I feel better, will definitely try out his falafel! As a local dentist, I will definitely recommend his food to the patients nearby.“

“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 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!“

“Maged is the best! Love stopping here after getting off the train.“

“Oh I ate it. Exceptionally good. Lifelong new yorker here, 20 years of tasting halal carts. This has to be the 1 of the best carts yet. Got falafel platter with rice and salad. And in terms of Vegan, its 100% #1! The falafels are green inside, not over fried, and moist. Salad perfectly cut and fresh. This is nearly midnight yall. Sauces are to be proud about it, literally perfect combinations. Tahini option is awesome--vegan and perfect viscosity. Green sauce, usually im a skeptic, but this was suggested and was one of the best Yeses Ive said! Hot sauce is a force, delicious and spicy. Rice was not neglected, a fragrance you can taste. Finally they got me, the fries soaking up in there. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? Very grateful for the food and kind service.“

“This spot has become my midday go-to. The dishes satisfied us yet weren't the best we've encountered. The employees delivered outstanding service quality. The neighborhood provides extended entertainment. This place is worth coming back to.“

“Hands down better than almost all NYC yakitori. 💯

Recommendations:
- Chicken Oyster 😳
- Chicken Wings 😩

General Comments:
- Although it takes a while, it's clear that the time is used to deliver quality. 😌
- Perfectly cooked skewers with smokey flavor. 🔥
- I was afraid the chicken might be raw because the skewers are thick, but no, they were thoroughly cooked AND juicy.
- The mushroom and chicken thigh skewers were also great but the other two I recommended were even better.“

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

“I tried a little of everything: their s’more cupcakes, chocolate chip cookies, and plain cheesecake, and it was all absolutely delicious! The buttercream on the cupcakes is sweet but not overpowering, the cookies are perfectly soft and chewy, and the cheesecake is sweetened to perfection. Such a great place to purchase from when you’re craving something to satisfy your sweet tooth!“

“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.“

“I've been eating New York City halal cart food since 1998 when my wife worked on the corner of 53rd and 6th Avenue. I would grab a mixed platter from Halal Guys while I waited for her.

Then I became a fan of Adel's a little further down the street on 49th and 6th.

My new favorite is this cart in Williamsburg. Service is friendly and fun and most importantly, the platters are tasty, cooked to order, and priced at pre-Biden prices!

In all seriousness, this place is legit so try it out.“

“Fish and falafel combo smells great, tastes great, and here is the bonus: The gentleman that runs the truck is nice, friendly, and very very fast. I’m allergic to tomatoes so it’s a little difficult to find on the go meals sometimes. He took care of it , no problem. Oh the prices are great too.“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“The Teriyaki Chicken and Steak over rice bowl is absolutely amazing! The flavors are rich and perfectly balanced — the chicken is juicy, the steak is tender, and that teriyaki glaze ties everything together beautifully. Every bite is packed with deliciousness. The portion is generous, and the rice soaks up all that flavorful sauce just right. Highly recommended for anyone who loves bold, savory meals!“

“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.“

“Great food and great people all around.“

“After seeing reviews on vlogs on our 1st night we decided we'd try the famous Adels Halal Cart and it didn't disappoint. I had meat combo over spicy rice and my wife had meat combo over normal rice and for $10 each you really can't go wrong. Big portions that tasted delicious. Would definitely recommend. Queue was long but goes down quick enough and the food is worth queuing for.“

“Working with Bro-Ritos was a very pleasant experience and we can't wait to bring them back to Rutgers-NB again! From the moment we contacted them through their website, they were professional, prompt, and friendly.We invited them for our annual Black Student Social which is a fall semester welcome program. The staff were kind and worked quickly to serve over 200 students. Our students were happy with their tacos and burritos. The owner was very accommodating and met all of our needs.Administratively, I was very impressed with Bro-Ritos. We made A LOT of requests and changes and had to work through the nuances of getting a new vendor approved, but Bro-Ritos was always responsive and on top of it. They are true team players.If you have the opportunity, you should book the Bro's!“

“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.“

“Tacos Comal is following what every taco spot in Ny is trying to do; and that is to mimic the ever popular Tijuana style taco of course originating from its name sake and an ever popular option in California. And just like these taqueria in NY that try to mimic the look is there but the flavor cannot seem to get it right. These tacos are 3.5, although I cannot give it in my review it’s not deserving a 4 but mediocre is not by any measure and definitely does not deserve a 3. It falls in a 3.5 category. It’s not that the flavor is bad, it’s more that I don’t taste the authenticity. The salsas were weak and the biggest saving grace of this taco spot is its tortillas, which are definitely delicious.

If you’re looking for a good New York taco this is your spot! If you’re looking for an authentic Mexico or California taco they are to be found elsewhere.“

“OK, so a beef kebab isn't so photogenic, especially outdoors in the afternoon wind, but it did its job of keeping me sated through a long academic presentation at the nearby Italian Academy. Nice food truck selection for these college folks in Morningside.“
