    Dum dum surprise in my fries!
    Lynn C.

    Ordered from here the other day for delivery. They delivered in less than 20 minutes. Got the grassfed angus burger...DELICIOUS! And the spicy seasoned belgian style fries...AMAZING!! To top it off they put a dum dum in my fries! Will definitely order from them again and again and again!!

    Burgers are a serious thing in NY. With competition left and right to create the best ones and the variety of choices, a new competitor has a lot to face. So I applaud Frites'N'Meats (btw, I LOVE the name) and their endeavor to "save the world one burger at a time". First, because they're new to the scene, the line/wait is about 30 to 45 plus the time to order and grill. It's a long wait but for something so fresh to the scene, I thought it was worth the wait. The service was impeccable, the smell of the grilling burgers were very nice, and honestly, you're also supporting a small business. Which I approve greatly! And although the fryer was out of order (no Belgian fries and sassy sauces!!!), what should have mattered was that this place really does what it offers...burgers. I ordered the grass-fed angus ($5.50) on brioche with some blue cheese, tomato, musclum greens, savory onion jam, and applewood smoked bacon. Plus a Mash mango/blood orange soda. The basic toppings are free but each "special" topping were an additional charge of $0.50 or $0.75. But I've learned...that's what usually makes the difference between a fine and a good burger. So, would I try this place again? Perhaps. But if the line was shorter. And if the fryer worked.

    Working in the area, most places are very touristy and it bothers me. I like places that are more local and original than a bunch of franchises. Luckily, this truck is right by on Mondays from 11-3PM. But you should check out their site just in case there are any changes in their locations. So I came here on Monday. It was so darn cold. There were a couple of people in line ahead of me. So since it was my first time getting food from this truck, I was told to circle what I want on a plastic card. The card also need you to include your superhero name, which I thought was very witty and cute. So I circled what I want and wrote "Smiley" as my superhero name and gave the guy the card. I stood aside waiting for my burger and fries to cook. It was very frigidly cold. It was so cold my hands turned pink, but even on this very cold day there were many people buying lunch from this truck. Which means this should be good stuff. When my order was finally ready, the guy called out "Smiley!" And when I approached the truck he asked if I was Smiley and I said yes with a great big smile and he chuckled. But hey that's what I am known for, my smile. I took my paper bagged lunch and hurried back to the office, so my food won't get cold or maybe so I won't freeze. I opened the paper bag and laid everything out on my desk. The burger was pretty big. It was medium rare, just the way I like it. The burger was very juicy and tender. The juice from the burger drips down with each bite. I love brie and I never had it with a burger, but it was one of the option for cheeses. The melted brie oozes each time I chomped on the burger. I also added applewood-smoked bacon to my burger, which was pretty good. However the bacon was a slight bit tough to chew. The handcut double fried Belgian frites were really crispy and delicious. Luckily, this truck is only here on Mondays or else I'll get tired of them really fast. And they throw in a lollipop to your lunch, that is really sweet of them! =)

    Grass fed angus, cheddar and pickles. Classic!

    I have officially seen the light. I snuck out of work, blinded by my PMS cravings and followed my nose like a fucking toucan. Thankfully it didn't lead me to fruit but instead directly into the grilled-beef-fat cloud that was this food truck. A relapsed vegetarian ..... again. I hang my head in shame while shoving my mouth with a crispy yet tender burger hugged gently in a sesame bun. The edge of the patty was the best part, perfectly salted and tasty. I don't want to go back but I know I will in exactly a month. See you then. *walks away defeated*

    Ordering process is simple and aamzing... just write down your superhero name with a sharpie on a card. circle what you want.. pre-thought out creations.. or one of your own.... hand it do the guy with your money and wait. I went with the Skirt steak burger with Gruyere cheese. Which was very good... but a little tough to eat as you will end up ripping the steak out of the bun and bite off more then you can chew. The taste was good. But i was disapointed not to find any guacamole on it. But very happy to see skirt steak burger on the menu. which isnt a burger but a skirt steak on a bun.. im not sure why i keep calling it a burger. Cost 10 dollars.

    This was the first food truck I tried at the Mex Fest Food Truck Event this past weekend. My boyfriend & I were hungry and this was one of the food trucks we saw first, so decided to give it a shot. My boyfriend ordered an: Angus skirt-steak sandwich on brioche bun with lettuce, onion, tomatoes, and pickles. The burger pretty big and a good size. I ordered an: Angus skirt-steak sandwich on brioche bun with lettuce, onion, tomatoes, pickle, and bacon. I hardly order anything with bacon only because it's not good for you. The burger was excellent! It was definitely one of the better burgers I've had. It was juicy, voluptuous, tasty, and divine! We decided to order their "Double fried Belgian style frites". It was served in a cone, which was interesting and different than how I'm used to. OH MY GOD, these were literally the BEST fries I've ever had. They look like McDonald's fries, but way better because they were light yellow and perfectly salted and just so so so crispy. We didn't even need to season it with additional salt or pepper because it was up to par! Frites 'n' Meats is a definitely must-visit for burgers and frites because it's just amazing here. I sure hope I run into them again because I keep dreaming about their deliciously amazing frites.

    special of the day good!

    Quality burgers, cooked well, gourmet toppings and great fries Got the Smithland special today, with brioche bun, Gouda cheese, and fried onions. Not one part of the meal disappointed me. The burger was juicy and tender, and the bun held the toppings very well. The fries were very crispy and seasoned well and the horseradish aioli was really good i would only say that i don't believe burgers should ever cost more then a whole meal that I could get at another truck. Don't get me wrong, I will be coming down to the truck no matter what the price is to get a burger from here, just because it tastes great, and I am a sucker for a good burger, but I don't love spending 13 bucks for a burger and fries when I am buying it at a food truck not restaurant

    Yummm

    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!

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.

    Adel's Famous Halal Food is one of the most well-known halal carts in New York City and has become…read morea popular stop for anyone looking to try classic street-style halal food. Located in Midtown, we walked up to a simple setup where the focus is on quick, flavorful platters rather than a sit-down dining experience. The biggest part of the experience is honestly the atmosphere around the cart, with the long lines and constant crowd showing how much hype has built around this spot. The cart is compact and functional, with the grill and prep area taking up most of the space, and the steady flow of customers moving through the line reflects its popularity as a late-night food destination. We ordered the classic chicken and lamb combo platter, which comes with rice, salad, pita, and their signature white sauce and hot sauce. The meat was well seasoned and had a good balance of savory flavors, with the lamb adding a richer taste compared to the chicken. The rice is also a big part of the dish, especially with the sauces mixed in, giving everything a more complete flavor. The hot sauce adds a nice kick, but it can get pretty spicy depending on how much you add. The portions are generous, and it is definitely the type of meal that feels filling without being overly complicated. The combination of grilled meat, rice, and sauces works well together, and it is easy to understand why it became such a popular option. It has that classic halal cart style where the appeal comes from simple ingredients done well rather than anything overly creative. The biggest downside is the wait. The line can get extremely long, sometimes stretching far beyond the cart, and depending on when you visit, you may be waiting a significant amount of time for something that is meant to be quick street food. The staff move efficiently and the line does go faster than expected, but it is still something to consider before coming. The turnover is fast enough that the wait does not feel endless, but visiting during off hours is probably the smarter move if you want to avoid the busiest periods. Adel's Famous Halal Food is a solid halal cart with flavorful food, generous portions, and a reputation that is easy to understand after trying it. The food itself is good and worth checking out, but it is not necessarily worth waiting an extremely long line for when there are many other halal spots around New York. It is a great stop if the wait is reasonable, offering a meal that feels both familiar and satisfying, and a classic street food experience that captures the energy of Midtown.

    Let me be upfront, I didn't wait in line or pay, so I'm only speaking on the food quality,…read morequantity, and taste. I also don't know what the prices were so I can't really comment on value. The quality was good and the quantity was exactly what you would expect. The container was filled all the way to the top with basically no room to wiggle. The food is definitely a step above what I've had in NYC so far in this category. The spicy rice is a must. The hot sauce is actually spicy so be careful with that. White sauce was good as well. I personally don't care for soggy fries and don't understand why that's a thing, but I seem to be alone on that because my whole group loved them. The meats are where this place really stands out. They're a level above some other spots I've tried. I had a gyro from another place that I would consider our "usual," and this meat was definitely a grade above that. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the meal and would eat it again. There were some complaints about extra charges for extra white sauce, which apparently many other places don't do. I can't personally verify or validate that, but mentioning it since I heard it. My brother-in-law said they waited about 40 minutes and that's crazy to me. I would never wait that long for this type of food. I will never wait more than 10 minutes for a "rice over" dish in 2026 at any place. The novelty wore off in the early 2010s and my time is more valuable than that. But if someone brings it to me, I will absolutely devour it without hesitation.

Half the spots nearby had already shut down or had lines I wasn't about to stand in, and this truck was right there, lit up and moving fast. Got the two-meat combo over rice.

Ask for the extra spicy red if you want to suffer a little. Portions are big for the price. I walked away full and happy. Fries are the one thing I'd skip (they go soft quick), but with the meat and sauces all over the plate I didn't care. If you're out late and everything else is closed, this is the move.

The steak is done perfectly at medium rare that you don't need any sauce and the fries are a nice crispy and golden brown.

One of my favorite parts about this food truck is that I believe it is run by 2 brothers and the front guy is so nice. You can tell they're great people. They're pretty busy around noon, but I'm always able to get my lunch within 15 minutes. They are cash only, but they do also take venmo or zelle.

I stumbled upon it around lunchtime and saw a long line stretching down the block. Normally, that would be a deterrent -- but I quickly realized everyone was there for a reason. The line moves surprisingly fast (these guys have it down to a science), and it's absolutely worth the wait. I ordered the Steak Basil on Rice and the Kimchi Sesame Steak on Rice, and both dishes were mind-blowingly good. The steak was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, and the sauces had that perfect balance of heat, sweetness, and umami that makes you close your eyes after every bite. The rice was fluffy and soaked up every drop of flavor. You can tell Dorjee, the owner, takes real pride in what he serves. He's one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet -- greeting regulars by name, joking with the crowd, and hustling behind the grill like a pro. Pro tip: Get there early. They sell out by 2 PM every single day, and once the steak is gone, it's gone.

I discovered that a Bangladesh street food called fushka is very popular, so decided to try for my first time. Tong is highly rated and their menu is simple. I ordered the Doi Fuchka ($7), which comes as crispy, hollow puri shells stuffed with a savory mashed potato and chickpea mixture. The difference in the doi is that it is topped with a yogurt to balance the spice for a creamier texture. I liked this a lot, especially with the tamarind sauce too (though this got a bit messy). This is nothing like I've ever tasted with so many different textures going on. It hits you with spicy, sweet, savory, crunchy, creamy, chewy and everything all at once. It comes with 8 pieces, which is perfect to share with 2-3 people. Definitely something to check out!
