If you're at Montefiore -- whether working a long shift, visiting, or just passing by -- this…read more24-hour halal truck right outside the hospital is there. I got the chicken and lamb over rice combo, and it was exactly what I needed: hot, flavorful, and super filling. The chicken was tender, the lamb had great seasoning, and the rice was fresh. Throw on that white sauce and hot sauce, and you've got yourself a comfort meal that hits the spot at any hour. Portions are generous, and prices are very reasonable -- especially for NYC. Whether it's 2 p.m. or 2 a.m., this spot is clutch for hospital workers, night owls, or anyone in need of a solid, satisfying bite near Montefiore.

I had a very disappointing experience with Chicken vs Lamb and won't be ordering again…read more My order was handled poorly from the start--food was left sitting instead of being given to the delivery driver who was already there, and parts of my order were missing. The food also didn't match what was advertised. I ordered a salad expecting what was shown on the menu, but received slimy arugula, strong-smelling feta, and dry grape tomatoes. When I brought it up, I was told the system has been like this for "2 months," yet the online and in-person menus are still not updated and don't match Uber Eats or what is actually served. The chicken over rice was overly sauced and served cold, and the photos online are outdated and misleading. When I tried to address the issue, I was told to "just take the tomatoes off," which didn't solve the problem since that wasn't what I ordered. The staff was also dismissive and rushed the conversation, making it feel like the issue was being blamed on me. Overall, there's a lack of consistency, poor communication, and misleading menu information. I won't be ordering again. I'd recommend Space Grill instead--the food is much better, though they close around 11pm.

I would never recommended this place to anyone

So, they decided to go ahead and buy a box of chicken for their office staff (as they each do from different restaurants). EVERYONE WHO ATE HAD THE RUNS FOR THE ENTIRE SHIFT. My SO felt guilty for leaving a bad review, so I took it upon myself to do it for them. You only get diarrhea when food has harmful bacteria, such as having the meat sit out too long before cooking, or having it in an unsanitary environment. Others need to be aware. Even if it only happened once....... Beware!

Good choices of healthy options such as side salad, sugar free drinks and multi grain buns, however the multi grain brioche bun tasted like cake and was loaded with sugar. The chicken sandwich tasted like hot sauce and nothing else, no chicken flavor or even cheese flavor. The Mac and cheese and lemonade were ok. Came nicely packaged. But I'll order my chicken sandwiches elsewhere next time. The store itself is always very crowded and does not have a bathroom, but has ramp in front.

I've been wanting to make a visit for a long time and they didn't disappoint. I heard about the…read morepepper shrimp and most places I've tried it fell to deliver the spice. Well not only was the pepper shrimp spicy but it was the best I've ever had. The shrimp was so big plumped and juicy. I didn't expect it to be nicely coated with such delicious flavor. My mouth is still watering as I write this review. I paid a little over $17, but it didn't bother me because it was fresh shrimp and veggies and of the amount of food I received was a lot. I mean they could have threw in a free small beverage to go along with it, but I wasn't mad, because this is NYC. I've paid higher prices for food that had less amounts and not even worth the price, but anyway I digress. The restaurant is quite small but big enough for you to stay and dine if you wanted. Along with great customer service, and delicious food a girl couldn't ask for anything more. Not to mention they were playing music to bop your head along with. I don't know if I would return for anything else on the menu right away because I would be hooked to buying the pepper shrimp again. When I get past that I would try something else. Overall, my meal was five stars but since I've only had one amazing item, and I don't know yet If it would be consistent , Im giving them four stars. I think they are worth visiting. Thumbs up and Happy Yelping!

Carifesta Restaurant is a Guyanese-Chinese fusion spot in the Bronx, known for its authentic dishes…read morelike oxtail, jerk chicken, fried rice, and chow mein. It's a family-owned, halal establishment known for generous portions, and it has been a community staple for over 25 years. I heard about Carifesta on social media and wanted to check it out. My daughter and I drove from Connecticut to try the food. When we arrived, the staff told me there would be a 45-minute wait. No problem. We ordered the Guyanese Chicken with Lo Mein, Jerk Chicken Sliders, and the Guyanese Fried Chicken. The Guyanese Fried Chicken was very flavorful but overfried. The chicken had a bone, and as I ate, it fell apart, which told me it was overfried. Next, I tried the Chicken with Lo Mein, and the noodles were overcooked and lacked flavor. The chicken was good and tasted like baked chicken. It had good flavor, but it wasn't out of this world. My daughter had the Jerk Chicken Sliders, and she said they were okay. She said she tasted the Jerk flavor, but the chicken lacked flavor. I'm not sure if they were having an off day, but if I'm in the area, I would give them another tryout.

We ordered through Ubereats and while the food was good it's nothing special in my opinion. Their…read morespecial sauce is okay, not my favorite but my bf liked it. Their fries are too thick and tasted old. Like if you don't eat them fresh out the fryer they start going hard because of their thickness. I also wasn't a fan of whatever seasoning they put on the fries. As far as the burger itself, I've had better smash burgers elsewhere. While it was the highlight of my meal. I think other places do a better job of them. All in all, I personally wouldn't purchase it again but I wouldn't be opposed to eating it if someone else does, if that makes sense? Lol it's just okay in my eyes.

I don't know if the oil was fresh today or what but everything was really good. It wasn't greasy or oily, but here comes the downside. The burger is as thin as it gets like it almost feels as though the bread to burger ratio does not add up now granted I got the $10 lunch special so it's a single Patty and maybe a double patty would fill somebody up and add a little bit more weight to the burger, but it also didn't taste very seasoned either. It was truly a mediocre experience and I hate to say that the sauce also did not live up to the hype and I wanted this to be a really cleaner version of five guys, but sadly did not with that being sad. I would come back to try the chicken tenders and the lemonade and the banana pudding, but the burger was really a letdown the space though is beautiful, clean new spacious lots of seating
