Breezy casual eatery displaying ample hot trays of American, Spanish, Indian & Pakistani dishes.

Salt & Pepper

Hear me out, I know this place advertises themselves as a Spanish spot and serve everything from Smoothies to Burgers and  Pizzas to Pakistan Indian food, BUT the only thing you wanna eat here is anything made fresh to order, especially the Chicken Karahi, Naan and Chicken Tandoori!!

What an absolute gem of a place if you know what to order, the 60 year old Pakistani Chef makes a BANGING Chicken Karahi FRESH to order. It’s a hidden gem in Manhattan that I don’t wanna gate keep anymore to get them as much business as possible.

I called ahead to ask if the Pakistani chef was working and he was happy to make ahead a fresh order of Spicy Chicken Karahi. We got there and this 60 year old uncle greeted us with his bright smile and asked us if we wanted anything else made fresh. The karahi came in the seasoned wok that gives it the special Taste. Truly took me back to the streets of Punjab, happy to say that I will be going here whenever I crave a Karahi bc no one else comes even close to this!

You'll notice yourself feeling less stressed while dining here. The food surpassed similar establishments completely. The vibe at Salt & Pepper is modern and the staff is helpful. The employees provide outstanding service. I regret every meal I ate elsewhere instead.

Alhumdullilah everything is halal here. No frills, nothing fancy here whatsoever but the food will hit the spot for many that work or shopping around the area. It's on 33 Street opposite of Macy's and Madison Square Garden.

I have been coming here for a very long time even before they switched hands. I still continue to patronage here many years later.

It's now the only dine-in halal food place that actually serves Spanish halal food I think as of this review, of the entire Manhattan Island, outside of Mexican Latino halal food that are slowly popping up. The other halal Spanish spot that used to be by Queens Bridge few blocks away from El Ber and who also served halal Jamaican food there too sadly no longer exist and turned into a American halal burger joint before COVID.

In addition to their halal Spanish food menu, they also have American fast food and also a surprisingly pretty good Indian food menu there as well. Just advising everyone food definitely better just around lunch time when it's out the kitchen. Later in the evening doesn't look too fresh or appetizing but hey, sometimes I still come around anyway at that time. And every now and then I'll come for breakfast. And that's good too

There is plenty of seating too.

This restaurant holds a special place in my heart. The kitchen incorporated new elements of high standard. Staff members performed excellently. The setting makes dining here special. I'm planning to eat here again.

Good prices in all Indian and Spanish dishes. Accesible space to dine in. Near Penn Station and Grelleey Park of trains stations, Hot and  Ready food dishes. Personnel from Spanish or Indian food servers. Cash register separate of prepare and. Attendance of serving trays. Take out.
