Gyro and rice platter with pita bread and sauce
Rozet S.

I love this cart! I first had Halal Guys when they opened their restaurant in Costa Mesa, CA. Since then, I've been hooked and have been wanting to go up to NY for Halal Guys from Providence. I finally made it out to NYC today and knew I needed to order their rice and gyro platter. For $7, the small plate is very filling and delicious. I love the pita bread that comes with it. However, the best part is their white sauce! I'm not exactly sure what's in it but it makes the platter so much better! Also the guys at the cart are super helpful and nice.

Chicken & Rice...$4.99...Incredible.
Saarah A.

This halal cart is simple and amazing. So amazing. It was the first one I tried because Halal Guys was too far of a trek, and I couldn't find Rafiqi's Halal Cart (another highly rated cart) because I'm an NYC noobie. My first visit here was more so as a last resort for lunch, but it was delicious and the man was SO nice (food carts can be intimidating for first timers). On a cool day, destined to experience the best chicken and rice, I made the trek to the notorious Halal Guys, to see what I (thought) was missing out on. Huge mistake. Compared to 'This halal cart' (don't know it's name) it blew Halal Guys out of the water and is less expensive, AND is higher quality. I have no idea how Antonio W. described it as "no Halal Guys", but I can only assume his taste buds were not working that day. The other day I ended up trying Rafiqi's, which was really good as well, but after just eating from this cart, I realized nothing compares and thought I should share how amazing and delicious this gem is on Yelp! Side note - I have nothing against Halal Guys, but I thought it was going to be like magic in my mouth after reading all the rave reviews on Yelp and from word of mouth, but I was left to be utterly disappointed and extremely, extremely confused.

Chicken over rice with grilled onions corn and tomatoes.  White sauce and green cilantro sauce.
Steven H.

Come here about once a week. $5 for chicken over rice which includes olives, corn, onions, lettuce, tomatoes, and peppers. You can add grilled onions too if you like. Love the white sauce and the green cilantro sauce. The guy is very friendly and always has a smile. For $5 you can't go wrong here.

Not the greatest portion I have seen but halal carts are still affordable and tastes pretty good

The service is quick and efficient. The food tastes really fresh! Not as spicy as I would like but still flavorful.

Loved this spot! I ended up coming here twice during my trip to NYC. The location is super…read moreconvenient in Midtown, just steps from Rockefeller Center, and I was pleasantly surprised that we were able to get a table for three both times without much wait. The portions are generous and the prices are very reasonable for Midtown Manhattan. Over the two visits, I tried both versions of the Hainanese chicken rice, and both were delicious. The food came out incredibly fast, and I especially appreciated that the meals included Chinese broccoli. I also tried the stir-fried noodles from Hainan Jones and that was excellent. Overall, everything we ordered was flavorful, satisfying, and served quickly. Definitely a great spot for a casual and tasty meal in Midtown!

Heard that Anthony Bourdain loved this spot for hainan chicken and rice, which is a comfort dish…read morefor me and I really understand why. The chicken was very tender, well prepared, and so were the veggies. I think it has stiff competition by way of Lou Yau Kee but is definitely up there as top 5 southeast chicken rices in the city! I would def come back here and what's great is that you can feel healthy bc it's steamed/poached chicken, rice and veggies :) It's inside Urban Hawker, so you can get a variety of other things to go with your meal - might I recommend Kopi (malaysian coffee) at the nearby stand? The flavors were bold, authentic, and the chicken skin was silky smooth. The cucumbers had a nice crunch and the veggies as well. They give you two sauces, one of them is spicy and might be hotter than you expect so try it first.

This time I got the mixed platter with fries on top with extra white sauce and a side of red sauce. We went right when they opened at 6pm and there was a line forming before they opened. When they opened the line moved fast and efficiently. There's some public tables nearby that you can eat at, but I decided to take mine to go. Would definitely come back again next time I'm in New York.

Worth it. To be…read morehonest, theres very little things in new york that's worth a physical line. But adel's is definitely one of those things. Some of the best halal street food I've ever had. The line is long, but very few people realize that they also do online orders, to be honest the line for that is still around 30min but it beats the 1 hour line. You pay a little more for it to be expidited but time is money am I right? Go in line right after ordering online though because they still make everything fresh and if you wait to pick it up you're still gonna have to wait 30min. The workers don't really speak much to you or acknowledge you until it's your turn so I say to be patient and they do their best with the rush and language barrier. A must try in New York if you're visiting, one of the only "touristy" spots that actually live up to the hype
