    This new fast food restaurant popped up a short time ago, and I was skeptical at first thinking, "oh, here is another low end place coming on the scene." But, I was definitely wrong. In fact, now I'm thrilled to have this place near me because the food is really tasty. So far, we've mostly stuck to the halal side of the menu (Shah's) over the fried chicken (Castle Chicken) because it is healthier. But, you'll see when you walk in, everything looks good. Speaking of halal choices, so far we've tried both the chicken and lamb over rice and a chicken salad--all very tasty and high quality, Definitely a step above what you typically find in fast food. Another pleasing thing about the rice meals is that there are lots of toppings to choose from--even humus! I like get them all!! One final shout out to the owner who has been in both times I've stopped in. He is super nice, and I'm hopeful he has much success with his new business.

    I'm gonna be honest. I like this place, it's clean, everything is cook fresh. The service was pleasant. So why the three stars, well although my chicken was nice size wings, and they had a crispy exterior. I didn't like the taste of the chicken. It had a weird flavor and smell. The skin was good but the actual meat was nasty. My cheese fries was excellent. I did enjoy that. I wouldn't purchase any chicken wings again from them but I would try other items.

    Lamb Gyro Combo Over Rice
    Sam R.

    Located under the train station on 242nd St. in the Bronx, Shahs express and chicken serves up yummy combo plates and fried chicken. Today I got the lamb combo over rice. They put a generous amount of lamb on your plate. What I love is all the topping you get to the put on your plate. I got jalapeños, lettuce, olives, and peppers. Of course I had them smother my plate with white sauce and hot sauce. The white has a nice taste and the hot sauce has a kick to it. Don't sleep on the dusted fries, they are addicting. I usually come here for lunch and not to busy. Service is really good and the people are super friendly. Would def recommend when you don't want to travel to the city for a halal plate. The prices are super reasonable and the portions will get you full for the day. NO EXAGGERATION!!

    Combo Gyro and Nasty Fries
    Gregory C.

    This place was horrible. I ordered ahead of time. It was very strange that the combo gyro and fries were made in less than 7 minutes after I asked for it to be fresh. The gyro tastes like it was made out of a trash can. The white sauce bottle? Stay far away from it cause it's soooooo bad. The fries tasted like they were warmed up in a microwave. Please do not listen to these 5 star reviews because the manager must have asked the employees to make FAKE REVIEWS. Do not go to this place. I'm warning your taste buds.

    I was going to try basic chicken over rice to check this new place, but I m so glad I tried Kofta Kebab over rice! It was sooo good! Great quality and great portion!!! Very friendly staff. Highly recommend this place! I'm so happy they opened right by the park. This will be my go to picnic take out place :)

    This is the 2nd time in my life I have eaten chick -fil- a…read more I am not usually inclined but after getting lightheaded at the pharmacy at target next door, I knew I needed something small before heading home. I was immediately struck by how clean, well lit, spacious with ample seating this location is. Rosina the cashier was exceptional and she even brought my drink and food to me as I was a little out of it. Feeling completely refueled after a nosh in a/c without feeling rushed. I saw several kind employees interacting professionally with other customers. The manager, I believe named Seynard was walking around ensuring everyone was happy. I guess I am a chick fil a convert

    Not so happy with this location right now. To be honest I'm not to fond of there chicken at all…read more I'm not saying that it's bad, I'm just saying that I've had better. I do enjoy the breakfast and sadly that is where I recently had such a bad experience. The service is so slow in the morning and it doesn't make any sense because there are not much customers in the AM. They seem to make online Uber orders, companies as such more of a priority, then the actual in door customer. Although it took them a minute to fix the situation, it still was a bad experience. If I didn't make a big deal about it, it would have never been fixed and that's sad, because I consider myself almost a regular paying customer. I do enjoy the breakfast as I said. I think I won't continue to frequent this place anymore. No thumbs up, but Happy Yelping!
