As a tourist from over 7000+ miles away, the food here absolutely blew my mind. The spice and the bowl is a taste you shouldn't miss. Be careful with the barbeque sauce tho, it's super spicy. But if you can tolerate the spice, its definitely a place you shouldn't miss.

Recently during my trip to NYC, I had visited, ‘The Halal Guys' yellow food cart, in Manhattan, New York, which is an iconic destination that lives up to its reputation. Renowned for their flavorful halal dishes, the menu features a combination of grilled chicken or gyro meat, rice, and salad, complemented by their famous white and hot sauces. Tried their famous gyro, a standout item on their menu, had delicious flavors and with the generous portions satisfying hunger. Despite the typical wait of half an hour to an hour, the experience seems well worth it. The efficient service is noteworthy, considering the high demand for their delectable offerings. The staff manages the long queues effectively, ensuring that customers receive their orders promptly. The wait time becomes a testament to the food's popularity, adding an element of anticipation to the overall experience. The awesome experience of eating The Halal Guys lies not only in the quality of their food but also in the unique atmosphere created by the bustling street scene of Manhattan. The food cart has become a cultural landmark, drawing locals and tourists alike to savor the mouthwatering gyro and other offerings. Overall, the Halal Guys food cart in Manhattan delivers not just a meal but an experience, blending exceptional taste, efficient service, and the vibrant energy of the city into a memorable experience. Highly recommended.

I've been wanting to come to this place for quite some time now. I did not make the rain come between me and my combo plate. The line was shorter than expected because it was raining hard. I ordered the combo and the falafel plate. I was not disappointed at all. I would eat here every single day if I lived in NYC. This is a must try when you're visiting New York.

This is the original Halal Guys food cart. It is probably still the best tasting and freshest Halal food in its business. The guys working here are great as they do a great job interacting with the customers regardless how busy they are. We beat the crowd by showing up at 11am, when it opens. Overall, this could be a quint essential New York experience and it is a good experience.

Finally, flew 7000 miles and got to try the famous halal guys platter. Luckily, there was no queue, but beware the lunch hour line which is super long. I went around 3:45pm and there was no line. The famous white sauce has a special tang flavor and it compliments the rice and meat mixture very well. Overall, the combo was yummy and satisfying. The hot sauce is quite hot, so best ask it separately. The staff are friendly and happy to serve the customer needs. The platter is $11 if paid in cash, and if one pays by card, there is a fee. Recommend trying the platter and find a peaceful spot to eat and enjoy.

The first thing you need to know about this place is that the line is LONG. I came here at 9:30 and waited in line for an hour before getting my food. I didn't expect this at all, but I guess I should have since this is the original halal food truck in NYC. If you can stand the wait, the food is excellent! I got the chicken platter and it was totally worth it. Very good. Their hot sauce is no joke either. It is HOT. Makes some other hot sauces I've had seem like water so be careful! But the food was hot, fresh, and delicious. So glad I had this experience. There are some benches around if you want to sit here and eat but space is limited. They accept cash and card!

Does it worth waiting in the line? YES! No doubt it’s a successful business. It provides good quality and healthy food with good taste. I absolutely recommend it. (I’m gonna try it again while I’m staying in NYC) We got the combo of lamb and chicken and lamb was really good. If you are not too much hungry, I would tell you that a regular plate is enough for two people!

I was amazed to see the fleet of carts lined up Together …. One cart is dedicated to soda and water other for assemble and last for prep work. Lines are huge. I waited almost 45-50 mins in order to get my turn but the food is worth waiting. Their fresh hummus is one of the best things I have ever tasted. The best part you need to put all the sauces by your self as per your taste.
