I'm pretty basic when it comes to my Halal and I usually just get chicken over rice with extra white sauce. It was delicious and they put fries in it and the fries were crispy and were soooo good! The staff was really friendly and nice and was telling us about their different dessert options that I will definitely need to try! It was clean, delicious, with kind staff, and when we called to order our food it was ready in 5 minutes. Definitely did not disappoint and I will be coming back for my same dish and to try that rice pudding dessert!

Excellent service as usual not just to me but to everyone else…read more We wanted to come back to this place so even if it was out of the way, we got to come here. This time I get just the lamb because it was so good last time when my son had it. It's a chunky cube instead of small tiny pieces. Allow you to enjoy the tenderness and the flavor. Portions are generous as well. Definitely the best halal I had in Long island so far (and I had tried other very popular and high rating halal place)

Now mind you, this review is based off of a DoorDash order...so take that into consideration. I saw…read morethis pop up on my DoorDash and decided to give it a try. I opted to order a cheesesteak with extra hot sauce and fries very crispy. Now I did notate this in the special instructions and also requested some sauces and told them this was my first time trying this, with that being said they did EXACTLY what I asked, so I would assume that the service here is great. The cheesesteak was perfection, the sub was very soft and perfectly held together the deliciously cooked cheesesteak which had the perfect amount of cheese and peppers in it. The fries remained crispy even after being delivered to me. The picture I'm including of the fries is after someone took a HUGE HANDFUL out so that means the portions for the fries was HUGE. The cheesesteak portion was the perfect amount of meat to bread ratio. Everything being said, this place was delicious. I would love to try everything on their menu. This might be one of those new go to spots for me. Oh they also gave me a side of their special sauce I guess, which was also incredible!

This is the best place to get halal on Long Island. Period…read more I've been getting halal for around 15 years all over NY and Long Island, and Hamza has maintained its status as the most consistent in quality over the years. The original cart off Little Neck Parkway was always a go to, and we would be back and forth between Hamza and Mecca (the cart next to it) for best in town. I always felt that Mecca had the highest ceiling (when it was on, it was ON best ever). Hamza was always a steady second, but in recent years Mecca has fallen off a bit yet Hamza has remained steady. It's good to say they have additional locations too now throughout the island making them a better option then Shahs which many default to. Between the portions, the mix, the sauces, and the quality, this is the closest you can get to the top NYC street meat halal on Long Island. Consistency is key, and Hamza and Marina have maintained their high quality even through expansion. As always... extra white!

Updated review - 5 big ones!…read more It's inexpensive, belly filling and it got me through some really crappy days during COVID. Halal food is in no way the comfort food I grew up with, but it's certainly the comfort food I needed as an adult.* The pandemic affected us all very differently in very different ways. Guys.... when I say some days were HARD, I'm certain you know what I mean. Despite my bad days, Shah's stayed reliable and the same for me... (Minus the chicken getting less spicy), it was a consistent tasting meal. I started craving their lightly spiced rice, creamy white sauce, chunky lamb.. etc. Oh, you went to the supermarket and everyone panic bought everything except the vegan cheese?? Shah's Wantagh has got you, pick-up 3 combos over rices for less than $30 and you have yourself a TON of food. On top of all that, the dudes here are just plain friendly -- not fake. They always throw some extra sauce in too! Lately, the green sauce (cilantro, helllooo) has been delish! Shah's Wantagh, you got a friend in me. -------------------- * In addition to my mom's chicken cacciatore

3.5 Stars for their lunch specials!…read more This was our first visit, and we only ordered a salad and two lunch specials. I would definitely come back to try other items from their regular menu. I found the entrees in the lunch special a little skimpy. These are the dishes we shared: -- Papaya Salad ($12): this is from their regular menu, and I thought it was excellent! Well balanced and so tasty! -- Drunken Noodles w.Beef (Lunch Special $14.95): this came with a Spring Roll and your choice of either Soup or Salad. We chose the Soup, which was a Tom Yum Soup. The Soup was very spicy but the Drunken Noodles were very mild; almost bland. It definitely needed more flavors and wok hei, but still ok. -- Massaman Curry w.Shrimp (Lunch Special $14.95): this came with a Spring Roll and your choice of either Soup or Salad. We chose the Salad, which came with a Peanut sauce. The Salad was actually pretty good; the peanut sauce was slightly sweet. The Massaman Curry w.Shrimp was very weak in flavor and only came with 3 little shrimps. I would suggest you order a different protein and skip the shrimp. Customer service was good; albeit there was nobody to greet us when we first arrived, so we just seated ourselves. But service got better. They didn't rush us to order and let us linger after we finished eating. But after a while, we were asked to leave since they close the restaurant in between the lunch and dinner service (between 3:30-4:30pm). Sorry, we were not aware of this! All in all, a decent first experience. Next time, I'd skip the lunch specials and just order off their regular menu.

Recently got take out from The Theo Thai Bistro for dinner. We ordered through their website and…read moreour meal was ready by time we picked it up everything was packaged neatly. We ordered the Khao Soi Noodle Soup which was a curry based soup. In the order you have a choice of protein and noodle type. We got chicken and egg noodles. I did like how the chilis and noodles were separated from the soup so the noodles weren't saturated and you can control the spice level. We also got Pad woon sen and the crab fried rice. The pad woon sen had a good ratio of chicken, veggies and noodles. Our favorite though was the crab fried rice. It was nice and fluffy, lots of fresh crab meat and very tasty. I would definitely order the fried rice again. Next time maybe I'll try dining in as their interior look nicely decorated.
