10/10 If you're…read morevisiting New York, this place is an absolute must try! I ordered the Chicken Platter, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The platter comes with perfectly seasoned chicken over rice, along with fresh lettuce and tomatoes. I got the famous white sauce and hot sauce on the side so I could add as much as I wanted, and both took the dish to the next level. The chicken was flavorful, tender, and paired perfectly with the rice. The portion was generous and incredibly filling, making it an excellent value. Everything tasted fresh, and I honestly enjoyed every bite. That said, it was so good I could probably eat two platters! The line was long, but don't let that discourage you it moved steadily and was absolutely worth the wait. Whether you're a local or just visiting NYC, this is one of those iconic spots you have to experience at least once. it!

I don't go as much as I use to, as the price has more than doubled since 2017/18. However, that has nothing to do with my rating. My problem is that meats have gone downhill. I used to love gyro meat - never sure what it was exactly lamb or beef - but now it is just gross and greasy. The chicken which used to be excellent is now very dry. The white sauce is great and the rice is fine, but that is it. Not worth getting anymore. Maybe one of their competitors is better, can't really be worse.

When I couldn't figure it out, I gave up and switched to an underground exploration mission because I was presented with a gift: the Turnstyle Underground Food Hall. I was pleasantly surprised! Legit dumplings, paella, bubble tea and some cute shops. It's not fancy but it has lots of flair. I walked the two sides and ended up choosing the Korean hotdogs because they had a sign with a special. For $6.98 you get a half cheese/half hotdog on a stick with the lemonade. I stepped up and ordered. There was a bit of upselling going on. If you want chopped up french fries rolled into the batter it costs a little extra. There are also different spices and sauces to go on top. I chose the strawberry lemonade and it was super sweet, so I'd go heavy on the ice. Sat down at the tables provided in the center of the hall. Had to let my melted cheese cool for a bit, because that first bite burned my mouth. Once cool enough, I devoured mine. Any kind of "fried dog" is a favorite of mine. It looks like there were still empty store fronts that should be filled soon. Good stuff to come back for! For now this was a great introduction to Turnstyle!

Ok yes the tacos are not the best in the world... but considering the location? This is pretty…read morepretty good, given that it's in Manhattan (a place not known for great Mexican food). A food truck right next to the subway in the upper west side, food is all cooked to order, and kept very well on my commute home to lower Manhattan. I liked that they had so many options for tacos, my favorite was La lengua (very flavorful and not dry). A few tacos had meat that was a little dry, but I was here at 9 pm so I wasn't expecting something out of this world. The burrito al pastor was GREAT. It was huge and had lots of filling. Cash only. The quesadilla is interesting, it had cotija cheese, lettuce and sour cream, which i was not expecting but it was a nice surprise, and my toddler enjoyed it so that's a win. I wouldn't go out of my way to visit this, but if i was in the area again, I would get it for a pretty solid and yummy dinner. We paid $40 for dinner for 3 people and still had leftovers.

There is also a counter in the back of the store with ramen if you are looking for a more substantial meal. The service was as expected of a grocery store and the ambiance was a bit quiet that morning. I got their Spam Musubi. It was really tasty. The egg and spam had savory flavors that paired well with the plain rice. I wish the rice was not so thick and that the nori was a bit thicker, but still a scrumptious meal to grab on the go! I also bought this Japanese apple jelly drink which was refreshing. I want to come back to try their rice balls (onigiris), specifically the Shrimp Tempura.

Can't go wrong but I'm docking one star because I didn't think the white sauce had enough flavor. Not a ton of lamb in the meal but can't expect too much when you are only paying $6 for dinner. There are two kinds of rice- the yellow and brown. I recommend the yellow rice as it has a lot more flavor. Pretty good, glad it's closeby
