    The food cart
    Jeremy G.

    GET THIS SPOT MORE FAME! Fresh chicken n rice with proper flavor and a price of $8. That includes a drink! I got the combo as a salad. The owner gave me and my fam a small sampler as we were waiting for the food. So definitely recommend the service as he did it all with a smile. The location is next to a strip mall so parking is easy. With such great food and service, you should be grateful it's only $8. Worth coming here again

    Not bad but not enough meat
    Najwa G.

    Afridi's unfortunately didn't live up to the hype for me. Maybe it's because I've been spoiled with Adel's Halal Food which anything has yet to compare to, but Afridi's was seriously lacking in the main thing that's required- the meat! Yes, the rice is great but why skimp so much on meat? I get that there's an extra meat option but that doesn't mean that the regular option should barely have any.

    Chicken platter

    Heard and read numerous rave reviews about this low key Halal cart and I definitely wasn't disappointed. Massive portion of chicken with steamy fluffy rice and just the right amount of white sauce had me drooling from first to last bite. My only wish was that I found out earlier. No doubt one of the best in Queens, NY. $8 for Chicken platter with can of soda. A true bargain this day and age.

    Chicken Lamb Combo Platter

    Gentleman was very nice and had a smile. I ordered the chicken lamb combo with white sauce. Comes with a salad, delicious rice, a can of soda or water and a pita. All for $8 Everything was delicious. Hit the spot and I'm so glad I found a halal truck closer to me that actually tastes good.

    Chicken over rice with pita! $7 (includes drink)

    Everything about this place is A+. The person cooking the food is such a nice person which adds to the overall experience of buying food from a cart. While you wait, he lets you sample the food he's preparing to know if you would like more seasoning etc. The food is so tasty and exactly what you want from eating chicken over rice but never get from so many places. The rice, chicken, and salad- everything seems super fresh! The white sauce also has amazing flavor (perhaps dill?) $7 will get you a filling meal with a drink. Amazing! I found my go to place for chicken over rice!

    Yummy lamb over rice w/white sauce and hot sauce

    I make it my business to stop by this little cart on my bike at least every few weeks. This was one of the first food carts in Little Neck, and by God, I'm glad it came! I hadn't even tried Halal food before I ate at Afridi's. Now I can't get enough of it! :D I usually order the lamb over rice, with a light sprinkling of white sauce and hot sauce. It always leaves me feeling satisfied. Free drink with every platter too! The owner is nice. He knows me as "The Guy with the Bike" by now. He'll sometimes try to chat you up and joke around with you, which is cool. Clearly, he enjoys making people smile. That's always appreciated. Good stuff! When life is getting you down, eat more Halal. :)

    Chicken over rice $6 (includes a soda)
    Cecilia T.

    Came here around 4:30 to get some Halal food for dinner and nobody was in the cart but as soon as I was getting back in my car, the guy walked over from across the street and was on his phone (the whole time). I got a chicken over rice and requested extra white & hot sauce. He accommodated my request and gave a generous portion as well. The price is also very cheap at $6 and it includes a soda. Not gonna lie, the food was very good. Maybe not as good as The Halal Guys but still good. The platter came with fresh, tasty, tender pieces of chicken- lots of it, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, perfectly cooked rice, and even had cut up pita bread on top. The white sauce, I have no complaints about, it was legit and the hot sauce, mind you, it's very hot. Definitely give it a try if you're in the area.

    This is our second time enjoying Afridi's Halal Food and it was as good as our first try. Amazing! We happened upon it when Chipotle was closed and we saw a line waiting at the cart. We enjoy all ethnic cuisines but never experienced NY halal. We ordered the Chicken over rice and the mixed grill over rice. We could not believe the price. You get a huge helping of rice, salad and meat for $6.00 (incl. a can of soda or a bottle of water). When the order is compete, he gives a good helping of the white sauce and some hot sauce on top. Both times, the guy in the cart is very helpful and friendly. We highly recommend this halal food cart.

    Mixed lamb and chicken over rice
    Lawrence C.

    This is my 1st Halal experience. I tasted just a little rice and chicken from a co worker and I was hooked. Super fresh ingredients. They make it as spicy as one likes. Yes! Had my own platter Thursday. I usually eat half my lunch and save for the next day, but just could not stop eating. Tender fresh chicken seasoned with onions and spices served w side of lettuce n tomatoes. Get the white and red sauce, and ask for extra spice. The best part is that it tasted like home cooking.

    Chicken & lamb Combo over rice, with extra white sauce, lil hot sauce, and 1 falafel.

    Good guy on the flat top cooking delicious food. Try the hot sauce Has chicken, lamb, combo, gyros, and falafal...

    Gotta eat two, just kidding .
    Anita L.

    Time to get your Stomach ready~~~ Oh, how much I missed Halal food. The white sauce and the combo. They sell it here for $6.99 plus a soda. I suggest washing the top of the lid because I saw one with a young grasshopper. Let's talk about the food. It was very good from the Pita to the Lamb to the chicken and even lettuce. As you can see I'm not really a veggie person. However, I enjoyed it after a long time of not eating Halal and also during one summer I tried to try all the Halal carts.

    Chicken over lettuce
    Diana K.

    If you're over by Horace Harding there's a little gem of a halal food nestled right in front of the shopping center. The owner and operator is such a nice guy. The food is always freshly made right in front of you - and it's ALWAYS AMAZING. Over the last year of coming to him for lunch/dinner he has introduced me to new sauces and spice, I'm always open to trying new things. Would recommend over and over again. Thanks for always being amazing!

    Great spot fresh good flavorful pizza the only thing I'd ask for next time is extra sauce if they…read morecan. The pizza is a little dry as if they have them pre made in the back Got mango lassi as well not the best I ever had but good enough . I'd come back again .

    2.5 Stars, rounding up to 3 Stars due to friendly customer service…read more I've had Indian Pizza in other places and loved it! I've driven by Tandoori Pizza many times and was always curious to try them. I had the opportunity to finally try Tandoori Pizza since I was at an event at another establishment down the block. I did takeout, and ordered the following: -- Archari Chicken Pizza w.extra garlic sauce (14" large pie for $31.80 with tax): Anchari chicken is typically very spicy, which I was looking forward to. The chicken was barely spicy and extremely dry. I had asked for extra garlic sauce (+ 50¢) in the pizza but I'm not sure if they actually put extra sauce, since it was so dry. Also, the dough reminded me of Dominos crust; very doughy and not very crusty. The toppings were skimpy and the pizza was mostly doughy bread. -- Lamb Kebab Pizza (14" large pie for $31.30 with tax): the dough was the same as the Achari Pizza; doughy and dry. The flavors of this pizza were stronger than the Achari, but the crumbled lamb was extremely overcooked, making it...you guessed it...very dry. Also, We found the price of these pizzas extremely high, given the skimpy amount of toppings and the size of the pizza. $31+ for a 14" pie with skimpy dry toppings and dry doughy crust is unwarranted. I don't know. Everyone else has rated Tandoor Pizza very high, so maybe it's just us who didn't like them. Or...maybe you have to douce the pizza in Ranch Sauce like everyone else?!?! I personally don't like Ranch Sauce on my pizza so that a big no thanks for me. Sorry! I still love Indian Pizza in general, and will continue to enjoy it, but at other places. I'm glad I finally got to try Tandoori Pizza though... curiosity satisfied! On a positive note, the staff is very friendly, polite and welcoming! Also, they offer discounts if you order online (not in person). So order ahead and save a few bucks!
