STAY AWAY!!!! First of all, this trash of a restaurant disguised its name as "wild wild wings" on uber eats, when in fact they sell halal food. I ignorantly ordered wings thinking it was a new spot but boy was I fooled. This was straight s**t. The wings were huge, not crispy, and super slippery and slimy. I took one bite and immediately spit it out because it was pink, as my side I ordered "spicy fries" it was literally fries with paprika on them which gave them a powdery texture it was horrendous they were also supposed to come with carrots they didn't send them and I also paid a little extra for extra carrots. I also ordered "Mac & cheese" not knowing it's a HALAL SPOT they sent me COLD MACARONI ELBOWS with COLD CHEEZWIZZ mixed all together!! I also ordered "sweet potato tots" they sent me a little cold pre packaged sweet potato pie! Stay away from these frauds and their disgusting mediocre food that shouldn't even be served to the dogs. It's a chicken spot open until 3am and they can't even get that right they are a sorry excuse of a restaurant.

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!

roadto2016#11 "cluck…read morecluck a duck" This is one of the famous "chicken spots" located in the city that is a munchie filler. i know your wondering "what is a munchie filler?' well thats basically when your in the mood for something so badly you dont care about any other food else but that one sort of food. if your have an urge no matter what type of the day come to this location. ill break down why its just more than your average chicken spot! "Thats the spot" They offer arrangement of food,such as burgers,fries,milkshakes,chicken and even halal food if your taste buds happen to be swinging that way. they do take credit cards and debit card if you dont happen to have cash. however for the type of place and the area, i would highly stress the importance of paying with cash. the food on the menu is super affordable. $10 dollars will get you very far in this place. its enough for 2 complete meals! "opening/nightime facts" This store doesnt close till 4am in the morning every single day so if your coming back from the club at 2-3am you will be able to catch this chicken spot and get yourself a good fix to put you and a few friends to sleep! during the night time i would also highly stress that coming at night can be a bit dangerous because customers can get loud and rowdy in the place if theres an argument so be careful for that.

Classic food chain that you'll find in almost any neighborhood lol... always came here for a quick…read moremeal or late night bites. You basically pay for what you get here, not gonna be the best quality, but it is affordable. Best part about this chain is that they serve halal too! Grab & go ambiance with some seating inside.

I am SHOCKED about the negative reviews…read more I refuseeeee to order from any other location than this one and my family agrees. I used to order from the 237 location and it was always a disappointment with either the taste or proportions. The customer service is excellent! I've gone to pick up orders in person and ordered via Uber Eats as well. I ordered a sauce that was out of stock and the employee went out of his way to call me to ask what I wanted as a replacement. He even threw in extra things. This was an order via Uber Eats. Normally restaurants would not go out of their way specially when the customer is not present. Compared to the cross county, 237th location among other chipotles I've tried, this specific branch fills your bowl to the rim! The food is always flavorful and plentyyy. They're apparently closed during the weekends which is the only downside. The ambiance is good. It's never crowded when I go, and the staff seems to be upbeat and efficient.

the comments from obvious spanish speakers and hispanic looking people stating they dk why there…read moreare bad reviews are a joke. it's obvious and has been repeatedly mentioned. the people that work there don't actually care it's more so a cliche ambiance where the workers just all happen to be hispanic and are in there doing everything except giving good customer service. food is always cold even if i go in person, it'll be 2pm and you're telling me you're out of beans. lettuce, corn, steak ??? tell me how long it'll be for new batches to be out don't stare at me with a dead pan face until i respond in spanish now all of a sudden you care and you'll see what you can do. It's annoying. i shouldn't need to perform for you and appeal to your spanish side for you to care about my food when IM PAYING FOR MY FOOD.
