Decided to try something because I saw the one on 40th street had a 4.5 rating on Yelp. Not a lot of reviews, but said hey- let me go against my traditional feelings of more popular burger places and venture out. I regret this so much. I went to the one on 39th. The energy was bad. i came here yesterday with my wife and kid and had the most disgusting burger that I can think of to recent date. Most of the video games weren't even working. They had restaurant tables and folding ones - just weird vibes. The Big Boy burger was horrible. Looked good when it first came out. I was actually excited. I thought Id found a hidden gem. The burger featured, lettuce, tomato, onions, two patties, cheddar cheese, some kind of sauce and beef bacon. The bacon was so bad. It was chewy and hard at same time. Didn't even know you could do that. It was barely edible, i had to take it all off. It gave stale and old and was not good. The beef of the burger had no flavor or seasoning. It just tasted like meat on bread with no effort. The sauce was barely even there. The tomato seemed okay but made the whole sandwich soggy and the green vegetables on the sandwich were a waste. I hated it. I cant remember the last time I couldn't get through half a burger. The fries were the only decent thing I tasted. Even the ketchup was cheap. It was super watery and thats from the packets. I'm never coming back here again. Hopefully the chicken is better. i doubt I'll ever find out.

They're tiny, and $4. Being in NYC allows you the convenience of accessing cheap and authentic food on a whim. These are not cheap, and from my prior experience, not authentic either. The food I ordered the spicy chicken, the argentine and the short rib. The spicy chicken. It's just meh. Not too spicy, not too salty, not too sweet, not too anything. The argentine. This one was kinda nice - a lot of nicely blended flavors and spices with soft yet crisp dough. Still not worth $4 though. The short rib. Slightly better than meh. The service The person behind the counter looks as though he couldn't have been bothered to do anything. It's not a big deal since he wasn't rude, but it wasn't exactly pleasant to be ignored until I order. The decor There isn't really much - it's a stall.

Such an underrated Halal food cart right at the heart of Wall Street Financial District. Rather…read morethan going out of your way to a fancy Middle Eastern/Mediterranean restaurant, I highly recommend stopping by the Continental Express Halal Guys. This is your no-nonsense New York staple, the Halal street food, and they do it very well here. I got the Combination Over Rice, which consists of lamb gyros and chicken over rice and slathered with that delicious, signature white sauce plus a generous dash of spicy red sauce to boot. So how does it taste? Like a gushing waterfall of yummy, earthy flavor and spices in every bite! It may look like a relatively small box, but it's dense in taste. And on top of that, this is only $7.00 cash or $7.95 with card! You get so much for your money and you leave with a full, satisfied stomach. Finally, the guys working there are warm and friendly, too.

Still one of the very, very, very, very best halal carts in the Financial District!…read more I've been going to the corner of Beaver St. and Broadway for about the last decade to get halal food and not much has changed about Continental Express Halal Food, INCLUDING the prices. When I first came to their cart years ago, it was $5 an entree and now in 2025 it's still only $7, which is an ABSOLUTEL STEAL these days. And, for context, I've been to some of the so-called best halal carts in the FiDi, including most of the ones in or near Zuccotti Park. Also, I was a post-midnight frequenter of the famed Halal Guys at their original location on 53rd St. and 6th Avenue wayyyyyy before they went commercial and opened up actual restaurants - so I feel I have a good grip on what exactly good halal food. The food here is as good as ever - specifically the chicken/lamb/combo over rice/salad. I've had variations of the chicken/lamb over rice or salad more times than I can remember and it has always been consistent throughout - hot, fresh, super flavorful and the perfect blend of spices. The meats are always plentiful, juicy and ridiculously delicious. They never, ever skimp on any of the food as you'll easily get your money's worth. An entree always hits the spot and then some. One thing to keep in mind is that they do get very busy during prime weekday lunch times, so try to get here around 12pm or you'll have to wait on a line that sometimes reaches 20-30 people deep! In addition, they now accept Zelle too, which is a huge, huge plus. Other than that, enjoy the mmmm mmmm delicious food.

Confused I t'was, for the window and drink shields were closed. With great reluctance, I mustered resolve to ask the provider if he was still open. HAZAAA the man was. But something was amiss. Even after 3 years there was a peculiarity I sensed. Anywhos, ordered the Chicken w/ rice and Lamb Salad. Once in the comfort of my warm home, my wife and I spared no time unboxing the food like a teenage boy eager to take off his first bra. GLORIOUS WHITE SAUCE coating my writhing tongue. But this wasn't the sauce I remembered. Ah! Like a halal lightbulb above my head. It was the barbecue sauce that I distinctly remember loving. How unfortuitous of me to forget but something still plagued me. After a deep reddit search, I discovered the Pasha's was in fact not the cart I frequented years past. They have split from a chain called "Sammy's Halal". Still good but not the flavor I craved. Chicken and rice: Very floral with cinnamon and portions weren't generous. Lamb: A little dry but it had that nice dry crust I like Hot Sauce: My ex-wife didn't even realize it was there. Does that mean we have covid?

My order is always taken with a smile and my food, on average, is prepared in under 2 minutes. For that reason alone, this is a great spot to go to when you need a quick bite on the way to wherever it is New York is calling you to. My usual is the combo gyro: chicken and lamb in a fluffy pita. The meat portion is always generous (as you can see in the image, the meats are basically spilling out of the foil) and it sits nicely with the sauces and vegetables. It's like you get a family photo of all the ingredients in every bite. The pita is soft, thick, and fluffy. On its own it could be a beautiful snack. The chicken and lamb are seasoned nicely: they have their own distinct flavor but they also coincide beautifully with whatever combination of sauces you choose. Usually, I stick with white sauce, bbq, and hot sauce and it hasn't failed me yet. I'd say opt out of the hot sauce if you're not grabbing a beverage with it, since the spice can linger a bit after the meal. The veggies finish the job here, giving a bit of diversity to the taste and some mild crunch behind the tender meats. While not pictured in this visit, I've also had the rice platters a couple of times and I will say this is also worth getting if your stomach is getting pretty loud. The portions are just as generous when it comes to the meats, rice, sauces, and salad so you're getting a mean bang for your buck. The rice in particular is always really moist, so it's nothing short of a smooth bite especially when you manage to start eating while it's still hot. Adding the pita just puts the cherry on top: even more variety in flavors and textures. If you want to ball out and get a platter + pita and a drink, I can almost assure you hunger won't knock at your door for another 36 hours. In a city filled to the brim with halal carts, this one is in my top three without a doubt. The service is always delightful, even when the obnoxious and freezing city wind is plowing through the cart (idk how he does it, big kudos to him) and the gyros alone fill me up for the day. All that for only $6??? Come on now.

Alright, so I had this crazy idea and asked if my intern would like to eat grasshoppers one day and…read morehe agreed to it. So the last week of his internship, I had taken him out to this cart to seek some hopper quesadilla. It was around the holiday season and it was a battlefield out there with all the tourists getting in our way. After not trying to run over the tourists game, we've finally made it to the stand. We've ordered hopper quesadilla and I've ordered a chicken torta and he ordered a burrito. We were so excited we again went about dodging the tourists on our way back to the office. Finally got back and we ate our lunch. The hopper quesadilla was good. The grasshoppers were crunchy, dry and a bit too salty. It did go better with the guac and salsa. I was able to eat a few bites of it because I had prior experience with eating grasshoppers at another place, which I will go in details in the review on how I handled it. My intern actually really liked the hopper quesadilla and ate most of it. He even wanted to save it for dinner haha. We offered some to the interns and one brave soul did try it and thought it was okay. The other interns probably think I'm a weird supervisor lol. Oh as for my chicken torta, it was HUGE, pretty tasty, and pretty messy. The fillings of the torta kept falling out and I felt like a slob. I mean when we ate the hopper quesadilla the little legs and heads were falling out too, so I guess this was meant to be a messy lunch. We cleaned up the table really good, making sure we didn't leave any leg or head laying around or else they might call an exterminator to come in and shutdown our cafeteria lol.

Didn't live up to my expectation. The portion was huge for $9, but the meat was dry and cold,…read moretortillas were stale. Beans were not good either, tasted undercooked. Also I got black beans instead of pinto beans, however I would much prefer to have some pinto beans. The enchiladas I got tasted like they have been sitting there for a while, even though I went to get my lunch at 12pm and the food was supposed to be fresh. I'm really disappointed at this food truck, maybe I'll give it a second try in a few months.
