Street Vendors near Woodside, NY

“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.“

“(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.“

“Every time I eat here, it takes me back to when I was growing up. They started as a rice roll cart on Grand Street, and they've perfectly preserved that authentic street-cart taste.

The steamed rice rolls with curry fish balls are soft, chewy, and perfectly sauced with hot sauce and extra peanut sauce. Grab an iced Hong Kong milk tea to go with it.

Highly recommend for a true taste of old-school Chinatown!“

“Awesome place but biggest flaw is that they’re not actually open everyday, even if the weather is good. I passed by today at 8pm, weather was perfect and they weren’t there. I wish they had some way of letting people know if they’re not open for whatever reason, even if its just an instagram page of something“

“I went to a lot of restaurants in New York that were much fancier than this cart but this was my favorite food of the day. The cheong fun was gooey and had qq and a decent amount of meat. For $5 for the large, it was such a deal and fed three of us as a snack. I would go back in a heartbeat and order more. Wish we had this in Chinatown in Houston.“

“Located in front of Paris Baguette, the BBQ truck has some of the best skewers I've ever tried. They transport you to the heart of Xinjiang with its local flavors, grilled in front of you. My two favorites were the lamb and beef skewers, and the chicken skewers were also very delicious.“

“My girlfriend and I went here on Saturday it was a great experience and we both had a lot of fun. We arrived a little early before our scheduled start. The atmosphere was awesome! We sat at the bar for about a half hour and we each got a drink while we waited for our game to start. My girlfriend had Lime in the Coconut Collins and I had Paradise Love. Both drinks were good. They have a very easy to use coat check too. There are a total of 9 courses and each one is unique making for an exciting game of indoor mini golf! There are also servers who walk around and take your drink order and plentiful of convenient stations to set your drinks on while you play and wait for the party ahead of you.“

“The cart has been here for years and still remains my favorite place to get take-out for rice noodles. They are completely made to order and the owners are super friendly, the noodles super delicious and budget friendly. There’s a variety of options/combinations/sauces you can get with your rice noodles and I honestly don’t think you can go wrong with any of them.“

“He’s my man ! Best hot dog in area ! Been going there so many years ! Highly recommend !“

“Like a newbie, I came without cash and my zelle wasn't working. The staff at Eight Jane were not only extremely patient, but they gave me my order and told me to pay next time I came. The food was also incredibly good and I'll definitely be back!“

“The owner Mohamed was so kind - I accidentally showed up before they opened and he opened the shop early to let me order. I told him I wanted a protein smoothie that didn’t taste like a protein smoothie and he absolutely delivered! I will definitely be back“

“I got to try some unique global flavors at this fair: NOLA crawfish sandwich from Parish Po'Boys and a Raclette melt baguette sandwich from Raclette Street. Both costed about $20 so keep that in mind if you are used to the lower prices at Queen’s Night Market.“

“lamb chicken combo plate was magnificent !“

“Great food! Big portions, finger-lickin good“

“Let’s put it this way, I get this at 9AM & not only is it super fresh its dam Good ���“

“Always been a fan of halal food carts since they are affordable and filling at the same time. This cart in particular offers a buy 10 get 1 free card/promotion their food is also consistent and well prepared in front of you as well, highly recommended this spot for the best bang for your buck“

“Really enjoyed the takeout I ordered for delivery. The Royal Greens Salads are huge!!! I would say they're twice as big as other salads chains. I wish it was easier though to know the dietary info for the salad dressings as I could not tell which ones were vegan. I love that you can choose your own protein and swap some of the toppings or build your own. I also got the green tofu curry dish from SriPraPhai as well. The sauce was incredibly flavor and I liked the amount of kick it had. It was spicy but not too spicy for me atleast. I do wish it had more tofu in it though as it felt very sauce heavy. I would order takeout from here again especially if I was getting food with someone who wanted something different then me. I appreciate the free delivery and the amazing portion sizes. It's nice to be able to order multiple cuisines as well.“

“The flavors here keep calling me back whenever I'm nearby. Their menu combines quality and service with sensible pricing. The staff performed exactly as expected at this quality restaurant. They serve just enough for the right cost. Tasty food options, considerate staff, and a nice setting make this restaurant good.“

“The food here competes with the very best spots. The meals demonstrate evident superiority. The staff showed consistent table awareness. The design choices here are refreshingly unique. Really happy with my meal. I can't wait to return for other menu items.“

“A gentleman was outside the truck assisting with ordering and payment. We ordered quesadillas (middle picture) & a tlacoyo (1st picture). He let us know they have different cook times and asked if we wanted everything served together or as it was ready. Food was great! Not too heavy or greasy. The quesadillas are handmade tortillas that are thin, light but pliable and filled with a small amount of cheese and your choice of filling. They are topped with crispy, refreshing lettuce and crema with both green or red salsa on the side. The tlacoyo was a thicker tortilla with melted cheese and filling inside and again topped with refreshing lettuce and crema and salsa on the side. We sat on the side where stools are provided. Great food and friendly service.“

“Bacang/Zongzi Vendor offers a simple yet authentic taste of traditional Chinese sticky rice dumplings. The bacang are warm, flavorful, and generously filled, making for a comforting and satisfying snack. It’s a humble street-style option that delivers great value and a genuine local experience in NYC.“

“Quick, fresh and efficient street food! The rice noodle rolls and the fish balls were delicious especially drenched in the sauces. It seems to be a local favourite because there were decent amount of customers in and out. I would come back again for this.“

“Every time we come to NYC, Kwik Meal is a must. The food is always warm and taste so good. We typically eat here every night. It’s a great price for the amount of food that you receive.“

“Si estas en NY tienes que ir Comer ponerle todas las salsas y tomarte una foto cool 😎“

“I love their food and the lady is super sweet! The baby I nanny and I always go to get lunch or say hi! The crab fried rice is the best and the pad se ew! Also I’m obsessed with their Thai iced coffee . Another plus….its super affordable !“

“Best meatball sliders ever. Also had a lovely conversation with the very nice lady at the stand in smorgasburg yesterday. We will be back �“

“Take the number 6 green line uptown ((Pelham Bay Park), and get off at Zerega Avenue and grab a good meal from George's Diner, the staff are really friendly and welcoming, food is good, the portions are large, fast service and extremely reasonably priced. Authentic American Diner.“

“I’ve been on a hot dog kick lately and recently found out about Boulevard Drinks, so my husband and I decided to drop in on a Saturday at around 11:30. The place is a hole in the wall. But it’s always the dingy looking places that have the best food. I’m not sure there were even any seats. We just stood next to the counter and ate, which you need to anyway because they’re meant to be eaten fresh. We ordered a cheese dog with sweet onions, and a spicy sausage with sweet onions. Each topping is 50 cents, so it can add up and you may end up paying $5 for a hot dog. But worth it for a once in a while treat. The hot dog was good but I liked the sausage a lot more. Both have a similar taste but the sausage is bigger and snappier. We ended up ordering another spicy sausage afterwards, but this time with chili. This one was pretty heavy so I’m glad we shared. Unpopular opinion, but I think a chili cheese dog would have been too much. Glad we got to check this place out!“

“DELICIOUS. The Chacá (maíz craquiao/sweet corn) is really good. I’m from PA and don’t come to NY at all, but anytime I have to cross the GW Bridge for whatever reason, I have to stop by the corner of W. 182nd / St Nicholas in the Bronx ( I think that’s the Bronx). I haven’t tried the habichuelas con dulce, but sometimes they have rice pudding (Arroz con leche) and it is also good. The habichuelas must be really good also because everyone on the line in front of me ordered the habichuelas con dulce. I left from my house in PA at around 9AM when I checked to see what time they open, Google has their hours from noon to 8pm. I arrived to NY at around 10:45AM hoping they were going to be there already, and they were. They were just getting set up and there were also other people waiting to get this delicious sweet treat. I guess they open at 11AM. One thing I didn’t see was their price list. I heard someone getting charged $9 for the big cup and I got charged $10. I’m not sure if that person got the habichuelas or the sweet corn and/or if the habichuelas and the sweet corn have the same price. They should list the prices so some people that are not from the area or don’t go there often think they are getting overcharged. If you pass by the area, stop by and get yourself some Cachá or habichuelas con dulce. By the way, the people selling are very nice and have been on that corner for many years.“

“lamb chicken combo plate was magnificent !“

“Love it! I had Lengua, El Pastor, spicy pork, they all tasted great and authentic street tacos! I didn’t care about the service, the lady was kinda delayed serving we even without people waiting. Anyway I was there for the taste and that ain’t changing my desire eating there.“

“LOVE this stand! The best in NY! Support the vets who fought for our country! The food is fresh and perfect! 👌🏻“

“Mmmmmmm taste sooo good I been on my diet lately and every cheat day that I have 3 times a week this is my go to place I love this cart so much the hot sauce is soo good he better bottle that up best believe ima buy that the guy in the front is so kind he is my king halal ? he always give me extra forks and napkins I use them for when my man comes over and we be eatin his food together like a little date night situation“

“Really good, the spices and seasoning are strong enough and it’s like $2 a skewer with so many options. I always get the lamb, the potatoes (which taste like seasoned chips), and other meats. The fish balls are soft on the inside, with a roasted crust on the outside - actually good too! It’s also spicy too, but not too spicy (probably like pickled jalapeño level?)“

“Coming to visit my sister from Oregon to NYC and first time ordering from here and oh my god, I am hooked.

I got the Chorizo Breakfast Burrito and the coffee and every bite is so well combined with one another: the potatoes, tomatoes and eggs. Chef's Kiss! And the coffee fills it all the way to the rim. Just amazing“

“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.“
