Halal Munchies

Good food and friendly service. Not overpriced at all. There are plenty of seats available, and the restroom is clean and well maintained. The menu offers lots of food options, including pre-packed cakes. However, drink choices are limited to regular sugary options. The place is clean, organized, and you don’t have to wait long after placing your order. It’s conveniently open late on a busy street, though finding street parking can be difficult, and it’s mostly paid parking.

We were pleasantly surprised by how great the food was! We ordered the mixed platter (lamb and chicken over rice with fries and salad), and it was more than enough for one person looking for a hearty, flavor filled meal. The salad was also a plus, fresh and thoughtfully made, not just a pile of lettuce passed off as a salad. Overall, a 10/10 for the food. Way better than expected, and we’ll definitely be back!

Everything we got was so good. I’d recommend literally everything. This place is very clean and all staff members are super nice. Also prices are humble. Give this place a try. I can’t wait to go back.

One off my Favorite places
Fast and clean with good quality

Friendly cashier. We only waited 10 minutes for our food. I like the fried chicken,this place serves fast food but it just seems healthier than other places (but it’s not).
My friend ordered cheese sticks and green salad with fried fish 🧐🙃…….She loved her food!
Very clean and very good service. I do recommend this place. Check the videos and the picture.

Steinway Halal Grill

Absolutely unprofessional. I was told 30 minutes for my order and ended up waiting over an hour and a half—for just two half chicken with rice plates, not a big catering order. Meanwhile, people who came after me were being served first, simply because they spoke Arabic and were being slipped ahead in line by the guy managing orders.

This is unacceptable for any business, especially in the heart of a food hub where customers have endless options. After a 13-hour shift, the last thing I should deal with is blatant favoritism and complete disregard for paying customers.

Never coming back. If you enjoy waiting an hour for food while watching others get special treatment, this is your place.

This place is not good anymore.  Service was horrible and food quality not like before. They never give you fresh one.

Food is always fresh. Price is very reasonable, frankly you can't find better price than this in NYC. Most of the time I get half chicken with two soup and two kinds of rice for $15. Which is more than enough for two average people. Only their service could be little better. One of my favorite food cart is NYC.

This little cart packs so much flavor into a silver tray of food! I am so glad a friend showed me this place.

The chicken is extremely juicy, with crispy edges. The rice has two different kinds, and the flavor profiles are aromatic and a little smokey. Typically a meal comes with two soups, salad, rice and your main. Which is a lot of food for what they charge.

I would suggest ordering in person if possible, saves you a lot of money. I do however order on their app often, it’s that good!

Again…. The  amount of food you get for the amount you spend…. INSANE! I love this place

the food is ok. the service is terrible. they got my order wrong, told me 10-15 minutes and i was waiting for more than 30 minutes.

Duzan

The chicken shawarma platter with hummus and salad is SO DELICIOUS THAT I DAYDREAM ABOUT IT!!! It is healthy, flavorful, and so, so good. It comes with pickles, pita, and delicious garlic sauce. I’m told that I’m a harsh food critic but this place is a 10/5!!!! Absolutely amazing! Friendly employees, and nice ambiance. They have a sit in area.

Duzan is one of my favorite places, it’s very affordable and tasty. I always get their pita sandwiches, pictures is their chicken schnitzel. A great mix of chicken and veggies. They also have great juices. I will always return here

I was invited to a celebration of life dinner by my brother. I was blown away how awesome the food was.

The rice dish was delicious and I had three helpings of it

I can’t wait to come to Houston again. I will make sure to stop by this restaurant.

I should’ve taken some pictures. I highly recommend this place to anyone wanting phenomenal Halal food.

the food was delicious and the service by Sumiya was excellent and very welcoming. will definitely visit again!10/10!!

One of the best Swarma bowls I've ever eaten. MIXED  swarma bowl is a must, It's so flavorful and fresh. Duzan sauce and white sauce are out of this world. It's so good, You can even eat a bowl of rice or salad only with the sauces. Will definitely come back to check other items.

Cafe and grill serving homemade Turkish food

TRUVA Cafe & Grill

We visited this Turkish restaurant for the first time because we were craving that type of food, and it did the job. The place has a simple, unpretentious atmosphere, and the food was decent—it satisfied our craving and left us full. What stood out the most was the service, which was genuinely good from start to finish. Overall, it’s a solid option if you’re looking for Turkish food without expecting anything too fancy.

I can safely say I have finally found good lahmacun in Queens, maybe even the best I’ve had in New York. It’s a super casual place, nothing fancy, but perfect if you’re just looking for a quick and tasty bite. The food definitely hit the spot.

One thing I found a bit surprising was that the waitstaff didn’t speak any Turkish, which you don’t really expect at a Turkish spot.

I’m disappointed. Born and raised in the very same culture, I unfortunately say that the food was the worst I’ve ever had. Service guys had no smile on their faces and they literally look like they want to finish their shift asap. The lahmacun had miligrams of meat on it, we just chewed dough. Döner was so dry, İskender was just meat with tomato paste. Nothing was similar to what we ate back home and we couldn’t finish none of our dishes. I don’t think of coming back and recommending to friends.

Automatic tipping is a rip off especially when it’s a party less than 5 people. I shouldn’t be obligated to pay an automatic tip when it’s just 2 people. Also the portions are small and overpriced. Owners are getting too greedy.

First time visiting. We were a group of 4. Service was excellent. The food was delicious. From the lentil soup to the mix grill platter with different meats, the hummus and the french fries. They serve you bread as an appetizer which is tasty. They make a homemade lemonade which is very good. I would definitely come back to this place.

Don Chingri Restaurant

Atmosphere was nice. Food was mid lacking Thai spices, flavor and aromatic elements which made it bland. Most dishes were just extremely salty, over fried and greasy. I did have good service and thought the prefix price was very fairly priced just the food was okay. We had drunken noodles, wings, vegi spring rolls, and dumpling soups. The fried banana and Thai iced teas were good.

I would recommend. Great service and attention to care. When I came in I was greeted by Alex. As a first timer I did not know the store was not open yet. But they were nice and took my order. Alex was nice and explained the menu with a great spirit. The chef was accommodate my request for my meal. I had a wonderful customer experience as a first timer and will swing by again if I’m ever in the neighborhood.

Now about the food. We’ll seasoned. Fresh and hot. I like the spring roll sauce for dipping pairs well. The drunken noodles I got it spicy and swapped the Chinese broccoli for regular broccoli. I thought I wouldn’t be full but once I started eating I was stuffed! I will stop by again.

The server (Miriam) who seated us was so kind! The atmosphere is very calming in here. The spring rolls were delicious, however the rest of the food was mediocre. The chicken strips were bland. The chicken lollipop’s sauce was amazing. The salmon and the lamb were good but not worth a drive out for. The mocktails were extremely sour so I had to keep asking for a change. The green curry was not my favorite. The rice were bland as well. If you happen to be in the neighborhood then def try them out.

I’m giving this rating mostly for the service, it was good I could give 4 start but the food wasn’t that level. We order Atlantic salmon  , Tiger shrimp, as appetizers fish cake and dumpling soup. Both main courses had over flavor as my opinion and the fish cake seems like didn’t had flavor. I couldn’t taste. I might go back to try different item .

Tl;dr: it’s okay, service is mediocre, menu descriptions incorrect, skimpy on protein. Flavors were good and the place is very clean!

I was the only patron today for lunch at 1 pm. I was greeted promptly by the server, who was a younger woman and was very sweet. I was attracted by the sign outside advertising their $10.95 lunch special (+$ for protein).
The restaurant is nicely decorated and it is clean, even the restrooms and the peak-through of the kitchen on the way to the restrooms.
I was given the dinner menu and drink specials, but it was 1 pm and time for lunch. After requesting the lunch menu it was provided and I ordered Spicy Basil with Shrimp. Described as “Spicy Basil.
Bell peppers, onions, chopped garlic. Thai basil, string beans. chili pepper, in a homemade brown sauce with your choice of protein served with jasmine rice”

With your lunch you also chose from with 2 Spring Rolls or 1 Curry Puff. I went with the spring rolls and they were the highlight of the meal! Yum - well fried, with vermicelli inside that provided a nice bite. 😁

Although i ordered one dish I received another. I was given Spicy Basil Fried Rice with three small shrimp 🙁. Fortunately I was debating between these two dishes and maybe it was a sign that I needed more sustenance. The food was good, not very spicy and was overall balanced. I’d eat it again. My biggest issue is with the meager protein- i was charged $1/shrimp for some small pieces, disappointing.

When I spoke to the server she was very apologetic- she was so sweet. It was an honest mistake - nbd. As a peace offering she gave me a free dessert - fried bananas. They were filled with cinnamon, stuffed in a wrapper, fried and covered in honey. Yum 😋

We are a Zabiha halal certified restaurant.

Chingri

Abuqir

best seafood at affordable prices in the city, no question. feels super authentic and homey. everything is fresh and served fast — no frills but full of flavor. come with a crew so you can try more. great for lunch or lowkey dinner. need to go back to try everything. fried shrimp and scallops were so fantastic. the bread  and dip is fab too.

Stopped by Abuqir for lunch and was seriously impressed! We had grilled octopus, seared scallops, Egyptian rice, grilled whole shrimp, fried calamari, and grilled red snapper. Everything was incredibly fresh, seasoned just right, and cooked perfectly.

One thing to know is that the dining experience is a bit different (in a good way). Once your table is ready, the waiter will tell you to head over to the seafood stand to pick out what you want. They’ll then cook it up fresh to order and it shows in the flavor.

Indoor seating is limited and cozy, with a few outdoor tables available when the weather cooperates. It’s casual and no-frills, but if you’re into high-quality seafood without the fuss, this place is a hidden gem.

Highly recommend for seafood lovers looking for something authentic and delicious!

You better sit outside the vibes were outstanding. Food was exactly like eating seafood in Egypt. Everything was very tasty and the service was great. I highly recommend this place we ordered shrimp fried and butterfly. Both of them were great. We ordered fish rice and salad. Everything was perfectly made.

fresh seafood; pick what you want and they'll cook it as u wish to order. really solid food but the owner seems rude as the other reviewers have said. restaurant was silent, reflecting that sort of tense atmosphere, and I was kinda ignored.

scallops weren't fully seasoned, solid tajine. seafood only sold by the 1/2lb

decent for solo dining but otherwise I'd imagine the atmosphere would dampen the vibe of a group hang

If you like grill fresh seafood, you must try this restaurant.  The seafood here is very very fresh, you select the raw seafood you see in the counter.  They grill everything to the perfection.  We love their grill scallops, river giant shrimp, squid, etc…the Greek salad and tahini were very good as well.  We enjoyed everything and will come back again.

Need to go there early or you need to wait for the table.

Falafel & other classic Middle Eastern staples

King of Falafel & Shawarma

Food was delicious!! Big portions! Pita was fluffy and flavorful! Love the decor and love how friendly this environment is from
the employees, to the owner, to the patrons. I will be back!

The chicken kebab was so tender and juicy. It was made fresh to order. The eggplant tomato dish, house salad and pita bread also so good. It was our first time having the food here and it was absolutely lovely. Palestine cola also sweetens the deal🇵🇸❤️

Everything from the place is phenomenal. From the entrance to the falafel to all the stickers and signs out there. I totally understand why the falafel is the best one ever. I would legit come back here every week if not every month. Food was mind blowing

A proud Palestinian owned business and they have the best falafel I’ve ever had the pleasure of having in my entire life and I’m not exaggerating at all. It’s shaped like kibbeh rather than the traditional round shape, they start frying them as soon as you walk in and offer you a piece as you wait in line to place your order and it’s the best starter before your meal. That is if you can fight the urge to get more and order something else instead which I personally failed at and proudly had one too many pieces that day, no regrets. Oh and the meat shawarma was also delicious.

Nice middle eastern food spot. Clean and service was friendly. Owner was chatting it up with a large party who seemed to be having a good time. Pics of Sisi on the floor was a nice touch. Will be back.
