    I had chicken and lamb combo over rice with toasted pita bread and salad and it was delicious I tried all the sauces this time and I was given a generous amount

    a tray of food

    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.

    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!

    Sooo goood

    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 definitely enjoyed getting my Vietnamese meals from here, especially because it was one of the few places that was Halal. I loved their banh mi , but I especially loved their beef pho. I never physically went to the store, but I always did delivery; The pho would come to me fresh. I also liked their Vietnamese fried wings as well. I heard the owner is looking to find a new spot so if he's reading, I have a recommendation for them which is to come open in Jackson Heights as there is such a demand here for Halal Vietnamese cuisine!

The pho was decent and filling. The wings were average just seemed undercooked. Pro tip. If you want starters/apps, order them first. After you've finished, revisit the menu and order your main dish. Areas of improvement - don't bring out the main dish first and the appetizer next. It's senseless. There was a party of 11 that came in. The workers really catered to them and left the single diners to themselves but still expect a regulated tip. I had one napkin the entire time and no one ever came over to see if I needed anything. I came, I dined, I left. I won't be back. Also my pho was getting cold as I tried to navigate between the two. Inspire more, Yelp more!

The sandwich was good overall, crispy and light flavor, quiet mild in taste actually. The patty was thin but was thick in some parts. I felt like the chicken was good quality. The lettuce, tomato and onion were fresh and brightened the sandwich. The onion rings were too crispy and had no onion in them. They were mostly round shells. They offered to change them for something else but I declined. My main concern is how food is being handled. Most employees had gloves on but were touching all the surfaces with the gloves on and then handling food. All employees were struggling with the order screen and kept touching the screen and then handling the food. I understand that kitchens get busy but there should be better training for using the order system and a better way for them to communicate the orders. Orders were taking longer than expected despite a small crowd. Customer service is friendly. This place is decent but needs some refinement. One smaller detail they can upgrade the brand of condiments they are using.

I recently came from a doctor's appointment and went to the closest…read morerestaurant to add a review to my listing and this spot only being a mere block away was the lucky selection. Inside is kinda narrow, but has decent seating. I admit I didn't thoroughly study the menu but they had some things that caught my eye. A loaded Cheeseburger called the Shiekh Supreme, Mozzarella Fries and the Zero Sugar Dr. Pepper which is quite the rarity. Service was essentially fast food tier which was OK but it is better than that of a typical fast food joint so I won't hammer too hard on them with that. The food is solid though. The Cheeseburger, albeit a tad greasy was a delight on the taste buds. It was beef certainly done proper. The mozzy sticks were nicely breaded and crisp with the right amount of cheese pull. The food is kinda pricey, but the spot is worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood.

One thing that makes them stand out is that they offer both Mediterranean and Mexican food, but as two separate menus instead of fusion. We both ordered from the halal Mediterranean side. Not pictured was my lamb gyro platter with rice, lettuce, tomato, white sauce, and hot sauce. The sauces were really good and the meat itself was flavorful and hot, although mine wasn't fresh off the flat top since I got the last batch from under the heat lamp. The platter also came with a small serving of curly fries, which is unexpected and not "traditional"but a unique twist. My brother got the lamb gyro and their "messy fries". We also shared the banana pudding. His gyro was fresh off the grill and he said it was great. Food overall was really good. Seating inside is limited and pretty cramped, so we ended up taking it back to the hotel. The tables were clean and the staff was friendly. Only small complaint is they should either ask if customers need utensils before leaving or have them easily available since having to go back disrupts the flow a bit when it's busy. Overall, I give this place a solid 4 stars. If all the proteins were consistently served fresh, I probably would've given it 5 stars. No major complaints though, just a few things that could be improved.

They have one side of the menu where it's more gyro and Halal options, and the other side has Mexican food options. The flavor was really good. The best part was that they had at least four different styles of chicken to choose from including spicy, classic and jerk seasoning. The staff was really friendly and quick about preparing food. The restaurant itself is small, but has ample seating. I would go here again and also recommend it.

We recently were able to go back where we found the staff fun, accommodating, and the food tasty while reasonably priced. Eater has this place listed as one of the best burgers in the city - specifically the lamb burger. They describe it as thick and juicy, which to me is say no more! I love lamb. I did enjoy the burger, but was hoping it would be cooked to medium (I forgot to specify), but mine was well done. The lamb flavor shined through. I will get this again asking for it medium. The fries were medium cut thickness and crispy. Besides this, our group also tried the Shag Panner (I usually see this spelled saag paaner), which was the sleeper hit. Everyone enjoyed the amount given and thought it was delicious. The lamb biryani was also enjoyed by the group with chunks of lamb meat buried inside the rice it had a good flavor. I like they had a bottle of white sauce on the table which is really delicious on everything. Mango Lassi, or intensely flavored milky tea or cans of soda round out the drink options. We tried the rice pudding which was very thick and creamy with a slight orange tint to it.

The food they make with are Zabiah Halal. This means it's fresh, clean-cut meat with no chemicals, etc, used to grow the animals also its cut in the most humane way possible.
