Our company ordered this spot for lunch. Sadly it wasn't memorable of how the food was. Vaguely remember that the wings and chips was good. Nothing too crazy about them. The halal food just mediocre. Rice seemed a bit al dente which I wasn't a fan of. I wouldn't say it was the worse thing i ever ate. But, I wouldn't say the food was good enough to be praised on. Will have to try again to give a better idea of this place. read more

I usually do enjoy gyro's from Shah's, but not this location. It didn't taste good, and the parking over there is a nightmare.

I'm not the person that likes to give a restaurant or any place that serves food a rating such low but this place unfortunately deserves it !!! Let's look into the positive side of this cart before I go into the negative. The location of this cart is very well accessible and time they are open are great if your craving food after midnight when most restaurants are closed. The cart did seem to be well maintained from the outside unfortunately cannot tell how its maintained from the inside where it matters the most !!! We knew chicken here was no good based on our last experience so we decided to go with Lamb. Oh my God, the lamb gyro had rotten meat and large chunck of fats that we never had experienced in any other Gyro carts. We know lamb has a smell but this lamb did not taste fresh or smelled fresh like typical meat we are use to ... we decided to throw away the 2 platters we ordered after few bites but unfortunately the horrible taste in our mouth remained :( Avoid this spot if you can and I hope the owner reads this review and changes their way of doing business with regards to having fresh food instead of rotten meat !!! read more

Ordered from UberEats, I'm just trying to figure out why my order didn't come with extras like I asked & paid for? Yall really be that cheap. read more

Never got dissapointed with the quality but the really need to stop being too cheap about the proportion of lamb. Ordered a mixed gyro with pita on top. Ended up getting this shit. Barely any white sauce, 2 spoon of lamb and no pita at all. The workers barely pay any attention. read more

Shah's Halal Cart - a tray of food - Halal Near Me

Food quality has gone way down since 2010, especially freshness and portions. They've raised the price before to $7, then lost business before reverting it back to $6 a few years back. Funny enough, to my surprise, they've re-raised the price, but the quality of the food is still garbage and the employee rudeness 10/10 as always. Avoid this place. The cart on 179 near CVS is better, bigger portions too. read more

This is pretty good. I liked that it is a good food option near the F train 169th train station. My order was combination lamb and chicken gyro, which was pretty large amount of meat. I found the meal decent and did serve as two meals. I found the white sauce awesome, but I can't for the life of me handle hot sauce...so just one condiment for me. I would definitely return and try it again. read more

This place is a scam. Yes, prior to 2016 is was ok. 1. The cooks are all scam artists stealing from the owner giving random people small portions. 2. The chicken is cold half the time! The whole point in going to a cart if nothing else is hot food, really???? 3. Flavor, while the lamb hasn't changed much the chicken has gotten blander and blander by the year. Really sad!! The chicken used to have this spicy flavor, now it's just in red food colored and mixed in with raw chicken. 4. They don't know how or care to customize your order. Forget about asking for lamb or chicken over salad, or half rice. They will screw you over or try to charge you extra. Avoid this place. I wish I could give 0 stars. read more

I don't know what happened to these guys. They used to be nice and had good service. Just went and bought 12 orders and asked for extra white sauce, the reply I got was "it's a big order how I'm gonna give you extra white sauce" what's the difference if one person ordered that much or if 12 different people ordered. You're a busy location you should be prepared. The guy was closing the boxes I asked if they put pita bread that I asked for he said I didn't ask for that when he puts it he puts like 2 pieces in each box. The food is good but I don't need the person serving me to have an attitude while giving me my food. I'm a paying customer I'm not begging for the food or I'm not asking for it for free I would just like better service as a customer. read more

This is the best gyro cart in my opinion. I had introduced so many of my friends from out of town, and this is the one we always come back to. Man their lamb is so juicy, they don't skimp out on the meat and that rice!!! Delish. read more

Not a big fan of their chicken. The lamb is good but there is a better spot on 168th place for that where they use chaat masaala in their gyro. At times the can be a pretty big line which speaks more towards convenience than quality. The stores are better than the carts imo. read more

i guess i am the First to leave a review heere haha.. well i moved to jamaica queens in January and i noticed this halal cart down the block from my house. maaaan i must say for 4 bucks you can get a hefty gyro (chicken, Lamb or Combo of both) and it def hits the spot for the price you pay. if you want a platter which is salad and rice its 2 bucks more and you get a free soda. if you go enough the guys will know your face and know your orders haha well at least for me. after a night of drinking as well and you come get some grub. def go here! read more

One of my favorite halal carts. Priced fairly, and food always tastes amazing. Definitely one of my quick go-to's!

Love this place. I travel across town just to come to this halal cart. Very good food. Very good service. I enjoy this place a lot. I know they have a couple of carts with the same name. I go to those as well. read more

This spot has been here for years. Very good food. Their hot sauce is really good. The mix with rice and chopped pita and a soda is the best. read more

Food is good may be one of the best halal carts around as some of my friends have told me but they can surely work on their attitudes only giving two stars because of rude and shitty attitude. read more

This place is trash ! Tell me how they give shredded chicken so bad! And if u tell him pita bread on top of the platter He tells you no u have to say it wen u order and wont give it to you. The workers always fighting with each other and they are just looking to steal money from the owner or something they so obsessed with taking the money like RELAX. read more

Best halal cart in NYC in my opinion. Yes, they don't have the most friendly attitude like a Starbucks barista but I don't expect that from a halal cart where a meal including a drink is $6... read more

If you enjoy cold food this is the place to go. They dont know how to toast a pita well. Also, the food tastes nasty and just an overall horrible experience. NEVER AGAIN read more

Best goddamn halal in NYC. I don't live in the area anymore but every time I happen to be in the neighborhood I always get some!

Workers are very rude, give less food than half the other carts in the area. Every time I come and ask for pita bread I have to ask 3-4 times to get it. Multiple times the worker said "its too late for pita, you should tell me before" even though I had. Nothing special here. read more

BRING BACK RASHEED ! Honestly, he's probably the only reason why I would come to this cart. Everybody else sucks. Rasheed finely cuts the meat so instead of huge chunks it's basically grounded and it tastes delicious that way. Everyone else will skimp you to the max and will give you dry hard over cooked meat. It's disgusting. Bottom line is, don't come unless Rasheed's working. He's super cool and will always serve you with a smile on his face! (I am not Rasheed's personal friend. My comments are solely intended for the purposes of this review.) read more

The best gyro cart around hillside. Definitely a st.johns favorite. Use to drive to this place for late night munchies.

I love this halal cart. I love the fooD. It's so tasty. Love getting it. I get it almost two times a week. The workers are very friendly and it's always freSh read more

Ehhhh, first time. Last time. Not my thing. Not as flavorful as expected. The warm lettuce with the chicken over rice seemed odd. Edible at best. read more

The food is good, not anything special. The workers are rude, nasty, and need to learn to smile. The helper guy looks like he has the cook kidnapped lol. They literally don't talk to you, the guys just look at you when it is your turn to order and will make change if you give too much money, but no talking. Food was good and sauces were very tasty, but tried place around the block recently on 168 place and it was much better tasting and guy was nicer. Surprised how many yelpers take the attitude from these guys! read more

This is the best halal cart around by far. The guys who work there are great and the food is so tasty. I could eat the food from here 7 days a week it is so tasty. Try it and you will never go to another halal cart. read more

So good! The lamb here is delicious and I'm usually really picky. I always make sure to get the combo. The service is kind too!

They used to be really good, the best halal I would praise. But lately they've been stingy on the amount they put in boxes.

If you frequent halal carts like I do, you run into a fair share of nuts (cooking, not in the food in case of allergies.) Although the duo here is docile and distant and will look directly through you while they're cooking, this location has been around for a long time and is generally open late. I did not like waiting until I reached the window to start an order when commonplace with 2-man carts speeds the process. Getting technical? It means a lot when you're standing in a no-standing zone in this convoluted junction of Homelawn and Hillside. Nevertheless, the food, sauce, and quantity is on point. One of the better quality carts in Queens. read more

I've been coming here for three years and never had a problem. Today I went there's and old guy with a beard he was quiet and then there was the other guy looked like he was in his 30s he was so mean and angry I was going to order three orders but the way he answered and talked back at me I ended ordering one order and left because he seemed so angry the other guy was just calm but he was just so angry and he handed the food back to me angry as well I don't understand why I didn't even do anything I didn't react back either I just took the food and left with my little sister. My little sister was confused as well. Point of the story why work there if you're going to treat costumers in an angry way and hand them the food in an angry way that's just not right! read more

Okay so I'm a huge fan of chicken over rice halal carts. The guy that works at night a lil Chubby and seems angry is the worst worker ever. Can believe he is still working here. He doesn't serve enough food. I asked him if he can give me extra chicken for 2 dollars. He still gives me a regular platter size and says he has no pita when there clearly was pita seen on his side. Terrible worker. But he food was okay nothing special read more

Best halal food truck in NY that I have tried so far! Better than the original Halal Guys in Manhattan, in my honest opinion. Their food is very tasty and people line up for this food cart! They really deserve 5 stars! read more

I come here maybe once or twice every six months. Everybody goes here for some reason because it is " halal" .The food is decent for cheap halal cart food but thats about it. Nothing great. Just average . Overall I would recommend only if you have no other options left. But it is typical street halal cart food. read more

This place is disappointing to say the least. Bland rice and chicken sure don't make for a winning combination, especially when it has a weird consistency. Last time I'll eat at this place, excuse me, I meant to say cart. read more

We are trying to buy the gyro he is too busy to fucking girl in the cart with extra white sauce.

This cart is my favorite one of all the halal carts I go to, juicy meat, good rice what else can you ask for for 6 bucks and a soda
