    I love this place! It's one of the only places that has fried clams in our area. I stopped in for a fried clam platter and a clam roll. They were both amazing! Crispy delicious sweet clams. Perfectly done. It's always clean and nice and the people working there are beyond accommodating.

    FIRST time rookie at King Kone. Picture shows all the flavors that they sell. There is another menu to the right containing a lot more items. One needs to step off the long line(a GOOD thing) to decide your choice! Unsure if the ice cream is homemade(or not) but it's good. We will return! Best to go at an "off" hour. There are picnic tables to the side to enjoy your

    The food is delicious I've tried the lobster roll and French fries very tasty. I've tried the pistachio ice cream the butter or can ice cream the monkey business ice cream which oh so delightful. Depends on what you like. The service is always impeccable. Very kind young ladies at the window to serve you. Very peaceful sitting outside also. Very calming with the tasty flavors . You will definitely want to stop by. This ice cream is better than any supermarket ice cream. Please believe. Happy eating....

    Coffee fudge toffee ice cream is my go to non-soft serve here Soft serve is good. We did attempt a king kone once You can order a scoop of just cookie dough Lobster roll is surprisingly good and has decent amount of meat. Heart Attack burger is where it's at - the crispy fried mac and cheese layer is surprisingly good. Fries are decent. Family friendly, outdoor seating, long lines, very little parking, great hangout spot.

    Busy roadside place. Parking can be tough as lot is small, a lot of people just park on the busy road or make shift spots We moved through the line super quickly, as most people were in the food line. Ice cream was delicious and sizes huge imo, truly couldn't finish the small. Cash only. I don't consider myself lactose intolerant whatsoever and crush hard scooped ice cream daily from the grocery store. but this soft serve lowkey destroyed my stomach. i'm wondering if it has some sort of additive or higher percent lactose? idk but fyi to anyone's who's a little more on the sensitive side, maybe try hard scoop. my partners sundae of banana and almond coconut was heavenly! it was a bit pricier than expected for the area

    Stopped by there for the first time. We have driven by so many times and I always wondered how an ice cream can draw such a line all the time. I found out!! This ain't just ice cream and custard. They have EVERYTHING! I did enjoy a dessert, as we just ate next door, But it was delicious and I'm coming back soon for a Lobster Roll, Hot dog, fried clams, burgers...the list is endless. The kids who work here are Friendly and Polite..This place is not just a food shack..it's a local Landmark!! Definitely stop by and check it out. Enjoy!!

    Soft serve infused with FLY.

    The young people that work there were condescending to me and my children. The simple orders got an "eye roll" and an "i know" and our order was shoved onto the counter not only without eye contact, but the person's head was completely turned the other way as if they were the subject of an exorcism. I looked up as I took my $25 order of 3 soft serve cups and saw the back of her head, Cousin It unkept hair staring back at me. One of our soft serve had a FLY in it. I should have lead with that but the whole King Kone experience was gross.

    Lobster Roll Platter

    Been coming here for years, the ice cream is AMAZING! So many flavors and all are equally great. I hadn't tried any of the food until today and I was pleasantly surprised! I got the lobster roll platter, which comes with the lobster roll, fries, and coleslaw. The lobster roll was incredible, the lobster salad has a lemony kick which really complements the flavor, the fries are crispy and delicious. I personally didn't care for the coleslaw but it's a nice addition regardless. One last thing, they only take cash, Venmo, or Zelle however the cell service can be spotty at times so I would recommend brining cash! Overall an amazing place and a northern Westchester institution for sure!

    small vanilla soft serve with rainbow sprinkles

    AMAZING!! Can't say enough good things about this staple, there's a plethora of positive adjectives! Even with a - large Sunday crowd, the ample ordering windows made the service speedy and efficient. Food was delicious! They even took a basic grilled cheese and knocked it out of the park. (I added old bay to my grilled cheese and it was key!) Classic hotdogs 10/10 and crispy delicious fries- my mouth is still watering. They offer a variety of condiments to take at your convenience which was a sweet little touch. And now the icecream. Oh goodness it was incredible. We stuck to the classic soft served vanilla with rainbow sprinkles, threw it on a waffle cone and were in heaven. (the offer 3 different cone styles In multiple sizes) The staff were great, the aesthetic is adorable- think classic vacation vibes. Just a few things to remember- they are a cash (or venmo/zelle) only establishment ! and parking can be a little tricky so prepare to park on the road :)

    We always love Dog Daze. I brought my friend this time to whom I've always talked up the…read morerestaurant. My standard fare there is almost always two dogs with grilled onions, sometimes with mustard and sometimes with ketchup. Always delish. This time I ordered one of my standards but wanted to try one of the special Reuben dogs which has bacon, sauerkraut and thousand island dressing. The Reuben was ok although the bacon was quite overdone. Not sure if that's the intent but it was a bit off-putting to me. The Dog itself was spot on but I still preferred my dog with grilled onions. My next visit would m gonna try another of their specials alongside my standard. My friend, also a hot dog lover, ordered two dogs with mustard and kraut. He loved them, and wants to return. A new Dog Daze fan.

So this year I have been waiting patiently and finally spring came around and they opened up but I advise to call ahead bc there hours vary and also weather related. But the staff is very friendly and helpful they bring the food to your car which is a nice touch. It being only my 1st time I just tried a fried chicken sandwich and got a icee as well. Both were delicious! I will definitely come back to explore the menu. There is seating outside or you can eat in your car.

    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.
