My favorite halal spot on the planet. I been going to these guys since queens truck then Hicksville and now closer to home in commack. The service is amazing! The guys treat you like brothers. The amiable is a gas station that might turn people off but it is clean small. They use gloves wash their hands. They're on point. Don't judge its book by the cover. It is worth it. I had halal everywhere and I'm telling you tops all even the one in deer park. read more

Hamza & Madina Halal Food - Chicken over Rice - Halal Near Me - Commack, New York

Although the food was good I won't be going back as I found something interesting in my food. I vomited up the food so I couldn't even get a picture to show what it was. read more

Best halal food in Suffolk. Generous portions. The staff is always friendly and will give you extra protein if you're a regular and they remember you. I always tip these guys! read more

Quality: 8.7/10, Taste: 8.8/10 I love this location, as the halal meat is perfectly marinated and grilled. I prefer a mix combo as the lamb melts in your mouth. By far the best halal food I've had in NY. If you are vegetarian, you won't be sick of the falafel. The smooth texture and spice make it worthwhile. read more

Hamza & Madina Halal Food - Chicken and lamb combo - Halal Near Me - Commack, New York

This place is a must try it in a gas station but the Halal food is amazing The guys that usually work there behind the counter are awesome. asking about our lives having conversations about cats that the guy found outside his house. Or a platter should run you about maybe $12 but it's worth it with the experience I'd rather pay for quality than over quantity better than any chain, Halal place this place is in Commack. I come all the way from Mineola to get this and at least twice a week and this place is 24 seven trust me come here read more

They definitely give you more meat than the cart locations in Hicksville and Bellrose. It can go from dead to 15 people deep in 30 seconds. My goto is the chicken and rice (not a fan of the frozen block of lamb all these places have). Chicken and rice with very little sauce, trust me resist the urge and taste the rice and chicken and flavors. read more

Don't let this place fool you. When I saw that it was in a gas station I was a little put off. But Hamza & Marina has a great reputation. I had the chicken and lamb with salad. It was a huge portion. Of course the white sauce was great. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

The freaking best! As someone who loves halal, I was so excited when my brother told me about this hidden gem. It's connected to a gas station, but don't let that stop you from enjoying delicious, affordable halal in big portions. Sooo tasty! read more

Hamza & Madina Halal Food - Halal Near Me - Commack, New York

If you don't know what halal food is you don't know what you're missing. Chicken over rice, lamb over rice or my favorite-mix over rice. Two, three or four stripes of white sauce. How spicy do you like it depends on how many stripes of red sauce. If you like cilantro ask for the green sauce. I get all three. Halal is one of the most flavorful and inexpensive foods that you can eat. I've had this at a couple of places on the island and the city. This place is very good! read more

Hamza & Madina Halal Food - Mixed chicken and lamb over rice with white and red sauce. - Halal Near Me - Commack, New York

I always forget to take a picture before I eat because I immediately start munching, but definitely one of my favorite halal spots in Long Island. As someone who was born and raised in Queens, I am very particular with halal food carts and only like a handful, but this location in particular is definitely up there and is very similar to the chicken rice in Queens! The service is great too, everyone is always friendly and chatty. Don't let fact that it's in a gas station turn you away, they're extremely clean and it's in such a convenient spot! read more

Below was my great review. Now here's what happened the other day that made me change it. I went yesterday and the guy cooking (MY FOOD) was coughing and spitting in the sink next to the griddle. He then rinses his mouth, spits out the water and other stuff, then takes out a nasty hanky from his pocket and wipes his nose first, then his hands. Then walks back over to the griddle. I said "Hell no" and walked out. This is really bad. I could not believe what I saw. Such a shame. read more

The BEST!!! Hands down no one beats their chicken and rice... STRAIGHT FIRE!!! Quick, friendly and AWESOME!!!

Who'd a thought that you could get decent Halal food at a gas station. My friend told me to give this place a try-it's the go to place when she is too tired to cook for her three teenage boys after a long day at work. First of the it located in the back of the quik mart so you might miss it. No seats, most of the people ordering were truckers doing take away. I ordered the chicken/lamb combo with rice and salad. The portions are large-shared the meal with my husband. The flavor was spot on and the sauces were excellent. For 7 dollars you can't go wrong-far exceeds drive through McDonald's. Don't expect fancy, fancy- just decent Halal food and you won't be disappointed. read more

The store was open late and it was very convenient for me, my order was made ready fairly quick. read more

Hamza & Madina Halal Food - Halal Near Me - Commack, New York

Great place to eat. I love their chicken over rice with white sauce (and no salad if I'm going to eat it later). Hubs loves their mix rice plate. Good size portions. Cash is usually the best price. The gas station location is odd but hey the food is good. read more

"Chicken over rice" I have been to this spot maybe 30 times in the last 4 months. I really like the place and the food they put out. Butttt it is so hit or miss to the point im better off going back to noors food in huntington. The size and amount of onions and peppers that go into the chicken is literally disgusting. The pieces are so big that they do not even cook down and the texture is awful. It completley ruins the whole plate, idk why they dont offer it as toppings like other spots. Not only that, you just really arent even getting chicken. I wish they really just had a regular chicken option becuse they have some of the best food and white sauce on long island. read more

So my friend was telling me that this place will surprise me and is the best halal food around Suffolk County. He is right. First off it's inside a gas station. Next, it's open 24/7. The food itself is fantastic. Lots of meat and rice. Sauce were banging as well. Salad was good too. The price is very reasonable. read more

Ok so I'm a fan of Hamza & Madina (not as my first choice but a fan nevertheless) - so I expected a bit more when I heard of a local shop of theirs. What I did not expect was that it would be located inside a gas station. So I was definitely thrown off and uncertain. I got the lamb and rice platter (as usual) with extra white sauce and two lines of hot sauce -- btw I think their chicken is absolutely amazing and beats a lot of halal spot chicken I've encountered. The food was solid, however, just like other storefronts, I think there's just something about food coming off of a food truck that makes it taste just a little better. While this wasn't bad, I expected it to match/beat their truck. What I DID really appreciate was that their price didn't fluctuate as compared to the truck price for food. ALL THAT FOOD FOR $7!! read more

See all

My BF's To go place when he's drunk. But Honestly most people hear "halal from a gas station" and automatically say no but let me be the one to say their halal food really hits the spot. Their chicken is really good compared to other spots I've been too. I like mine mixed (ask him to make your lamb a little crunchy.. thank me later !) but I'd definitely recommend them read more

Hamza & Madina Halal Food - a meal in a styrofoam container - Halal Near Me - Commack, New York

It's pretty good. If you need to eat late and can't find an open restaurant, this is your ticket.

I'm on my way home from going to Walmart and I happen to see a sign for Halal food in a gas station... My first thought was that seems a little sketchy, but it just so happens this is the best Halal I've eaten on Long Island. I found out it was Hazma and Madina which has a truck out in Nassau and I've heard very good things about them. $7 for the perfect amount of chicken, lamb, rice and the side salad. The white sauce wasn't thick, the hot sauce was actually very hot and the green chutney sauce was on point. For once it felt like I was eating Halal from the city. So happy to have found a spot that's good and not that far from my house. I'll definitely be back. read more

Hamza & Madina Halal Food - Chicken & Lamb Mix Combo over Rice with side salad with white, hot and green chutney sauce. - Halal Near Me - Commack, New York

Pretty good halal chicken and rice! I go heavy on the white sauce and light on the hot sauce. Always good and quick. It is inside the gas station. Don't let this affect your decision to give it a try. read more

Amazing!! Combo over rice! Great good great service, was so happy to hear about this new location for dine in. Staff is friendly, place is clean. Food is fresh! read more

Hamza & Madina Halal Food - Amazing!! Combo over rice bbq & white sauce! - Halal Near Me - Commack, New York

Not sure why folks rate this place 3 to 4 stars and states the food was excellent. So what are you scoring so low if not for the food. I came upon this place by accident, I stopped to get some gas and went inside to get a drink and noticed it. I went home and came back with my wife who is very picky about food. We stood on line and ordered. The guys behind the counter were superb, friendly and helpful. The food was fantastic. I have tried the falafel, lamb and chicken and loved everything about it. The friendliness of the guys is icing on the cake. read more

Affordable, fresh and delicious! These guys know how to grill up a great mixed platter with lamb and chicken! They are super friendly as well! read more

Oh my goodness. The buttery rice. The tender chicken. The succulent lamb. The fresh salad. The mix of white and hot sauce. Every component of the combo platter hits it out of the park. I've had rice platters in the past but nothing has made me choke out of sheer ecstasy shoveling down spoonfuls after spoonfuls. I just wish it was closer to my house. They make it right in front of you and although it's a small shop, part of a gas station, with nowhere to sit, I am definitely going to be returning. read more

Hamza & Madina Halal Food - Combo platter (lamb and chicken over rice and salad) - Halal Near Me - Commack, New York

best halal spot on long island came here after seeing good reviews . Have to leave my own review simply the best halal take out I've had

Hidden gem, don't be discouraged by location. Can't beat this Halal food at any time of the day! Mix Rice Plate

Not always nice and hot and to many onions honestly depends who is working in my opinion

This location goes to show exactly how hamza and medina started from the ground up. always an authentic and beautiful experience when i walk in i know i'll be satisfied. i get the chicken over rice and practicaly drown my plate in white and hot sauce. fries on the side and the occasional kofta. every hamza location is a little different but always the right decision when you're hungry read more

Disappointed. Every year this place gets worse in terms of quality and service. They always mess up my order. How does one forget the rice? Does one forget the meat? Simply garbage gas station food. Go to the one in Hicksville read more

Blows away Halal guys. Don't be afraid of location. White sauce is really good. Lamb platter is great

Good stuff. Quick clean affordable. Had the combo over salad. Don't expect much it's inside a dumpy gas station c store. But the foods spot on. Kitchen looked spotless. read more

So damn delicious! I can't believe I used to live around this place and never knew about them! Definitely will go back for more! Worth the drive :) read more

The food was great but the service was trash. The guy was asked if he wanted help and he said no, meanwhile he had a line of 7. So they need more people read more

Food is not consistent. At first it was good and overtime I feel like it is not as good. I ordered 4 gyros the other night and the meat and rice were COLD. (I believe the meat was precooked and not on stove because the employee came late and I didn't see him actually make anything) Also there was no taste to it and my family was dissapointed because it used to be better. Hopefully they do better because it is convenient to get. read more

Best halal in the area. Used to travel to Hicksville so once they opened a location closer to me I was thrilled. Hamza & Madina is a weekly meal for me. Can't beat the price for the amount of food you get! read more

The gyro tasted ok,but i didnt like how thechicken and rice were cold.I like my food hot and fresh....also the white sauce didnt have much flAvor needs to be thicker n more flavorful! read more

The last time I had this it was so much better but now I feel their rice is a bit too dry. The chicken tasted a little funny too but it was probably because we had it late at night. I like that its pretty close to the more east side of LI but i do wish it was fresh. read more

Some of the cooks here are rude. I wouldn't recommend coming to this Hamza location or tipping if you buy from here. The truck in Hicksville has well-mannered people but here is just full of people you don't want to buy food from. read more
