    This is a slightly overpriced Mexican food cart specializing in breakfast and lunch goods. I went with their Chorizo, egg, and cheese which is usually American but I substituted it (for free) as if I'm going to pay that much, I might as well get actual cheese. The egg on there was fine while the chorizo was cut up into very tiny pieces. The good thing was that it was spread around it well but the bad is that there was the lack of snap/crunch from it. It was also a lot less spicy than I expected it to be which I'm surprised at but there were some good flavors. While I prefer the traditional Mexican food carts more (due to price among other things,) it is this area. It's Midtown East on Park Avenue so if you don't expect a breakfast sandwich for cheap. Nice staff here also. The ratings here are accurate for the area, low/mid 3 (if it was anywhere close to other better carts it would be a 2.5 at most.)

    The Mexican Authentic Wrap

    I decided to deviate from my typical bacon egg and cheese avocado wrap from my usual spot. So, I ordered the Mexican (authentic) from here. More potatoes than anything else. No salsa as advertised. Very light traces of chorizo. Very disappointing..won't be coming back.

    Pretty good wrap / burrito, portion size could have been a bit bigger. Conveniently located

    Power Breakfast Menu. Very extensive.

    I don't know why, but I've never noticed this truck before on Park Avenue. More than likely it's because I am running away from all the people traffic on every corner. There are so many office buildings on Park Ave. so the lunch rush is intense. The lines for food trucks are just as lengthy at times. Today I got lucky and a bunch of folks already ordered and were just waiting. The "eggs" in Eggs Travaganza caught my eye. I love eggs...I can eat it any time of the day. However, after reading the menu I opted for some Mexican fare. (Already had scrambled eggs this morning and I was thinking I wanted steak). So instead of steak and eggs, I went for the carne asada (steak) platter. Each platter comes with salad and rice. Then you can choose between hot sauce, cream sauce, or guacamole or all three if you want. I went for the cream sauce and guacamole only. The steak was cooked medium well, some pieces were a little chewy but all had a good flavor - grilled and nice color to them. I didn't think to ask for medium rare...just ordered it as is. (Could use some onions...would've helped to tie the flavors together). The salad it came with was good, the dressing already tossed in, it was a light oil and white balsamic mix (contains cheese). The rice sadly was too overcooked for my taste. Consistency was mushy and just too soft. It did have a lot of ingredients going for it so instead of a 2.5 star rating, I rounded it to 3. The corn, carrots, peas, lima beans, and green beans was a nice variation on the usual plain yellow rice. It was flavorful, just too soft. Now that I know the truck is there, I may return for something with eggs...probably should've on this visit but my eyes floated to the Mexican fare menu. I'm a fan of food trucks in general...they rule the midtown scene for sure.

    Honestly this place deserves to be a solid 4. I guess it's a bit pricey for this kind of food, but freshness, quality, and the service make it worth it. Also the cost matches that of food around it. I relocated from Texas where you can get bfast tacos anywhere basically and Id say this place hit my breakfast taco craving. The accompanying green salsa had great flavor, but Id prefer it to be spicier.

    The truck is located northeast corner of 52nd street. Went there around 1:30 pm and didn't have to wait at all. There are plenty of space nearby for you to sit and eat your lunch. There are also many other fantastic food trucks nearby. Food: I had the Steak Burrito. I really didn't like any part of the Burrito. The meat was pre-cooked and reheated had a funky oily smell and had no seasoning. Rice was very mushy. Burrito came with corn chips which were extremely salty. The chips reminded me of salty theater popcorn. They are probably good in breakfast items as their name highlights Service: quick Price: if the food is bad then no matter how much you pay it is over priced. Overall: Very very disappointed. 1 star because, lack of seasoning and overcooked rice.

    Mexican grilled cheese - (cheese, chorizo and tomatoes)

    I've been meaning to try this truck ever since I read about it on Midtown Lunch. This truck is well known for their breakfast sandwich varieties, particularly their "mexican style" grilled cheese. I finally got up early enough to see what all the hype was about and i definitely was not let down!! When I showed up (around 9:15am) there wasn't a line at all, but by no means does that say they don't have a huge fan base. Apparently they weren't at their usual spot yesterday morning and everyone in the area had a freak-out... On to the food, the mexican grilled cheese did not disappoint. Breakfast is always a good thing, breakfast off of a truck is an even better thing... but i can honestly say this square of greasy amazingness is one of the best breakfasts under $5 i've had in a long time. The cheese is nice and melted, blended with chorizo and tomato and placed between two, 7 grain slices of perfectly buttered bread. To boot, the couple that works the truck are 2 of the nicest people you can find at such an early hour of the workday... All i can say is - I work in the Madison Sq. park area, but I will surely make frequent visits to Eggs Travaganza This is the Midtown Lunch article: http://midtownlunch.com/2010/05/04/eggs-travaganza-carts-grilled-cheese-with-chorizo-and-bacon-ftw/

    E G G B O Y S $4 for 1 Taco is EGGSPENSIVE. I mean I would call it a delicious Eggsperience, but the prices were a little too Eggstravagant. My Chorizo and Egg Tacos were actually Eggsceptional. I also tried the Huevos Tocino Taco which was meh. The guac was also meh. Aside from that, the people in the truck were cool. Sadly they didn't have any steak ready or I might have gotten that instead of the tocino. Maybe I'll come back if I'm desperate for a morning taco.

    Felt like all of my midtown food trucks were incentivized by my colleague and none of them disappointed me. This small Mexican truck was famous for its three amigos wrap so I gave a try, very satisfactory! It smelt great even outside the truck. The crust was a little bit hard to bite though.

    This cart isn't your average NYC breakfast cart. They have everything your regular NYC breakfast cart PLUS MORE! Chorizo and Carne Asada! First time trying this place out and definitely not my last. My boyfriend and I tried the chorizo fresco, Carne Asada burrito and the steak and eggs taco. Both of us loved the chorizo fresco the most! The man was more interactive with us than the lady. He was really nice to chat with a little while we were waiting our food.

    The Good: Still like what it used to taste like from what I can remember. Hits the spot every time!…read more The Bad: Adel's is a fierce competitor a few blocks down with a long line. BUT, imho Adel's doesn't really taste as good as the original Halal Guys in terms of flavor and fragrance. The chicken from Adel's is in bigger chunks and some argue is more tender, but the flavor is definitely not close. Also, it's important that it comes with lettuce, tomatoes and a little onion to balance everything out. Finally, You must get both the spicy red and white sauce together to make it all come together! The Ugly: The smell is addictive, so if you walk by, it's hard to resist, even if you've just eaten a nice meal somewhere else. We couldn't resist. Gotta hit the gym hard for the next few days!

    The guys working the cart are genuinely some of the friendliest people you'll meet in midtown…read more Always smiling, always patient, even when the line is wrapped around the block. And that line is no joke. You will wait. Plan accordingly. Here's my dilemma: every single time I eat here, my stomach lets me know about it later. Without fail. I've tried adjusting the hot sauce, going easy on portions... doesn't matter. Something about this food and my digestive system just don't agree. At this point I have to accept that it's probably not for me. So why do I keep coming back? Because at 2 AM after a late night, when everything else is closed and you're starving in Times Square, that platter of chicken and rice over white sauce smells like salvation. They're the only game in town at that hour, and honestly, in the moment, it hits. It's the next morning I regret it. If your stomach handles it better than mine, you'll probably love it. The food is tasty and the portions are huge for the price. I just wish I could enjoy it without paying for it twice.

I do think they do as good of a job managing it as possible, but it is still quite the long line. If you do decide to wait in the line, I recommend sending a friend over to Magnolia Bakery to get you a treat while you pass the time. Overall, the lamb and chicken were extremely tender and flavorful. The sauce and rice were great as well, complementing them perfectly. The service is very efficient, and they do have a few cards set up to maximize the efficiency. It was great, and I'd say it's worth trying if the line is short! Otherwise, I would pivot to another nearby great option that you can easily find.

    Absolutely overrated. This place is probably overhyped thanks to Instagram and YouTube influencers,…read morebecause the actual food is nowhere near worth the attention. Yes, it's only $10 if you pay cash, but honestly, the quality you get feels like it should cost even less. There are plenty, and I mean plenty of other halal spots that are significantly better than Adel's. We tried both the combination plate and the falafel plate. The falafel was so bad we threw the entire plate in the trash after just one bite. It was oily, heavy, and downright disgusting. To make matters worse, they drown everything in a ton of white sauce, which feels like an attempt to mask how poor the food actually tastes. The chicken on the combo plate was extremely bland and dry. It didn't taste fresh at all . A lot of their meat is pre-cooked somewhere else and just reheated at the cart. The pita is clearly store-bought in bulk and has a cardboard-like texture. The rice was the only somewhat acceptable part, but even that was dry and underwhelming. I genuinely don't understand how anyone would come back here a second time when there are so many other halal carts that are easily 1000 times better. It's definitely not worth standing in line for 30+ minutes. On top of that, the staff is surprisingly rude and tends to snap at you, even when you are just asking basic questions. Skip this overrated cart and save your money.
