It's a little food truck out of a Carroll Fuel gas station, but there are park-style benches for seating. The portions are HUGE and super affordable.

I got the combo over rice and fries and it was super good! This was my first time trying halal food…read moreso I got all three sauces on the side. I was really a fan of the green and hot sauce (quite spicy). I'm not a fan of ranch/mayo adjacent stuff so I predicted I wouldn't like the white sauce. I preferred the chicken pieces over the lamb, but they both tasted good. The fries were like a 6/10, better than average. All the food came out super hot. The price for everything was also really good. The service was great. The guy at the counter was polite and brought me over a tray when he saw I was dining in. The food also didn't take long (~10 mins). The ambience was nice, and there was a good amount of seating. People came and went but it was pretty empty for half the time I was there (40 mins).

I was given a card my first visit to Shah's when I ordered the chapli chicken platter, a bowl with ground chicken patties with spices, and included a few pakora chips. I didn't know about the promotion, but it fit my plan to try every type of bowl! The bowls are customized at the counter, adding sauteed peppers'n'onions, black beans, lettuce, cucumber, tomato, hummus, chickpeas, etc. I usually keep it simple. They are very generous with their signature white sauce and you might want to ask for less, and the green sauce is tasty too. The pakora chips are very good, I recommend anyone skip the french fries this time to try them instead. I wasn't a fan of the pita, thick and without much flavor. The fish had just the right amount of coating and was very good. I'd skip the chicken kofta, it was too dry. Overall, good.

My cheese fries were mostly fries with a little bit of cheese drizzled - which didn't have much flavor either. Lastly, the sad little banana pudding cup. I think it was like $4 or $5 for 3 oz? The pudding tasted like artificial banana and just wasn't good at all. Big let down.
