Couldn't reach my food after a 3 hour wait for us. Either my driver ate it, his dog ate it, he ate his dog, or he threw my food away.
Sundeep S.

Ordered on seamless at 6:25 Reached out to restaurant and Seamless CS multiple time every hour on the hour until 10pm. No food Food is good but this place is run by Sales and service rejects. I think my drive are my good, threw it away, and won't home to watch Seinfeld reruns. We literally went to be crying and hungry. Silly Seamless agent had no accountability, refunded my dollar amount, and disconnected my chat without notice. Disappointed dude . The good is only as good as the people behind it

Burnt Charga from Kababish
Mohammad Zubair A.

Got Chicken Charga for the first time, firstly it was expensive but most importantly was burnt!!

Beef nihari
Anna L.

I wanted to try the infamous Pakistani kata kat dish, but it wasn't available on the ordering app. Might have to be ordered in advance. Instead, I got the beef nihari and chicken biryani. The food here is on the spicy side. I didn't like the beef nihari much. The sauce had a lot of oil and they gave 2 pieces of tough meat. I didn't taste much flavor from all the oil. The chicken biryani was good and the meat is nice and tender. Rice was flavorful but spicy. The raita that came with it was nice and thick. Complimentary salad of onions, cabbage, and lettuce comes with each order. They do pepper a little cayenne or red pepper onto the salad though.

Next day mixing the chicken kebabs with the lettuce, peppers, and onions they give you

What do you do when you're hungry at 3am and the train is skipping your stop? Head for the place Action Bronson chatted up in F*ck That's Delicious, that's what! I got two chicken kebabs and two samosas, because that's what they had left at that hour and I wasn't feeling the look of the stuff that was sitting out in the trays all day. The kebabs come with lettuce, onion, and jalapenos. They also gave me three containers of their yogurt sauce, which ended up being the perfect amount. And they packaged everything really nicely, each component of the meal was wrapped tight in it's own foil ensuring the food made it safely home. But I dug into that nonsense right on the street. Couldn't wait! And that chicken, my god that chicken. I was disappointed that I couldn't try another meat but this was so incredibly delicious. The meat was so tender I was convinced it was actually making my mouth water while I was eating it. And the spices they use add a serious kick, heat yes, but also herbacious, my tongue tingled a bit with each bite. The samosas were ok, it's the end of the night so it's hard to judge. BUT, the next day I heated them up with the leftover chicken, then added the lettuce, peppers, onions and yogurt sauce on top of it all in a bowl and wow, this is beautiful thing. It just comes together so well. Filling, tasty, fresh, affordable, and open at ungodly hours - how can you go wrong? You can't. Get on into this hole in the wall, take it to go, and smile.

Does that look like chili to you? Because that's what I was told when I asked for a refund! I told them it's a ROACH!!

First time ordering here. I ordered 4 chicken kebabs, 1 beef kebab, 2 garlic naan and THE EXCITING CHICKEN BIRYANI!! I was excited to eat some Indian food until half way through my meal I saw a ROACH IN MY BIRYANI !!!Horrible!! So I called them for a refund and they asked me to bring the food. Upon arrival to discuss my cockroach issue with their food the guy at the front tells me that's it's a F-ING CHILI!!! THIS DOES NOT LOOK LIKE A CHILI !!! So I asked show me the chili and they didn't bring it!! then he picks up the bug and splits it in half to show me. I asked him to eat it!! But he doesn't and throws it aside and gives me a refund for just the rice! $11!!!! WTH, is wrong with this place!! I just left knowing I'll charge back! Eat at your own risk people!!

Gola Beef Kabab I didn't like it
Bushra D.

I ordered by Grubhub chicken biryani and beef gola kabab. Tasteless Food was cold Never gonna order from here

Chicken kebabs
Sam E.

Loved this place!! $5 for two chicken kebabs?? Sign me up! If I worked close enough I'd probably get this every day for the rest of my life. The chicken kebab was spicy and came with a really good greenish sauce. It tasted like ground chicken which i wasn't expecting but quite enjoyed! They also threw in a bit of salad and some onions for free which I really appreciated. I was stuffed after the two chicken logs. This is the perfect place if you need a quick, cheap lunch that will keep you full throughout the day. It's not so much of a sit down place (although there is some limited seating for you to eat and run) but really great for quick take out. Will be back soon!

The beef nihari is out of this world, and the onion naan is excellent too. Definitely one of the standouts in the neigborhood.

Ordered: 4 Steamed Chicken Momos (~$6)…read moreGoat Shinwari Karahi (~$20) Tandoori Mix (~$22) Chicken Biryani (~$14) Sesame Naan (~$3) Kashmiri Tea (~$3) Aya's take: Kabab King has officially been put on the map thanks to our Mayor Mamdani who says this is one of his favorite spots! Jackson Heights has no shortage of great Southeast Asian food, so I was excited to give this spot a try. They have dine-in option and plenty of seating upstairs while the downstairs is just for takeout and was much busier. The Steamed Chicken Momos were satisfying, warm, and well-seasoned. There was a bit too much dough for my liking but I did enjoy the flavors. The Tandoori Mix was a nice assortment of various cuts of chicken & beef. Many of the pieces were on the dry side but again, the flavor was there. The Goat Shinwari Karahi is definitely worth getting. The goat was super tender and aromatic and the karahi is fragrant and made well. It's super greasy which I didn't like, and it wasn't served with anything. If you want rice/naan on the side, you need to add that on yourself. Nonetheless, for ~$20, it's still a great deal. The Chicken Biryani was fluffy, aromatic & fragrant, and filled with a good portion of chicken. This was the base for the other dishes we got and truly paired well with everything. The portion was perfect for 4 people and at ~$14, that's an unbeatable price! I also loved the Sesame Naan which scooped up the karahi sauce so well! The Kashmiri Tea here is so good! The pistachios are well incorporated so you don't feel like you're chewing so much while sipping, and the tea is rich & soothing. It's definitely cheap comfort food and we left feeling fill & satisfied but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. Solid try!

It's been a minute since I've been to Kabab King mostly cz I associate this spot with long sit down…read moredinners with my family. However, recently when my uncle was in town and staying close to LaGuardia, it only made sense to pay an old friend a visit and take a trip down memory lane. Not much has changed here since the decades have passed us by other than perhaps the sighting of more and more non-brown people in the family dining hall as Mayor Mamdani has put this Jackson Heights institution on the map. We weren't really in the mood for a lot of food so our order was pretty simple - a single order of goat karahi, seekh kabab and some naan. Goat karahi came out fresh and hot. I will say it was more on the greasier side, lots of oil to fish through, and the goat couldve been a bit more tender but the flavor was on point. Naan was warm and fluffy, and the kabab were spiced just right although I feel they need to be a little juicier. We washed this down with chai which was really good but more on the milkier side. I can't wait to return and re-familiarize myself with their menu offerings. Maybe I'll give the biryani a try next time, I've heard it's pretty good here!

Wanting a quick snack before heading onto the neighboring R train, we stopped in for some steamy…read morehot momo and respite from the cold. The gentleman at the counter was doing everything himself, from serving customers to preparing all the dishes. We ordered the pani puri and a tray of steamed chicken momo (pictured). I am not a big fan of pani puri, but my partner said it was good. I did love the chicken momo and the sauce for dipping was spectacular. We paid around $15 in total for everything, including two waters, so its a steal if you are in the area. Like others have mentioned, this is a hole in the wall and sort of hidden within a storefront selling calling cards.

In my travels from afar I've walked by K2 many times without understanding the delights that…read moreawaited within. My review is based on two items sampled on separate occasions: pani puri and dahi puri are served as small plates of eight or nine small hors d'oeuvres-like snacks made up of complex layers of flavors. I'm no expert on this cuisine but understand its roots are street food that was so good it's often served in fine restaurants. To be sure, K2 is no fine dining establishment, and to come here expecting it is anything approaching that would be a mistake. It's a neighborhood dive, the front of the restaurant wide open, weather permitting, with questionable cleanliness and an interior that suggests no one is particularly concerned about the ambiance. I'm of the opinion not every food establishment needs to cater to those needs, so as long as the food is great, I'm in. Both dishes consist of a circular wheat-based, light, airy shell with the top removed, then filled with different ingredients. For both dishes the appeal is the complexity. Dahi puri is at once sweet, savory, salty, bitter and plenty of heat--a real sensory bomb. The combination (eat these in one bite!) rewards the palette nicely. For pani puri it's onion, cilantro, plenty of heat, garbanzos and possibly potato if memory serves. Again, a complex single bite that simply delights. Pair these with the Himalayan butter tea with it's salty & sweet taste and you once again have a complex experience. But to be sure, that tea is an acquired taste and many palettes will not agree with my assessment as to its pleasing taste. If you come: cash only, steps away from the #7 train and smack dab in the middle of the combined Tibetan, Northern Indian, Nepal, Bhutanese diaspora. Jackson Heights? Maybe Himalayan Heights.

We did a Queens food crawl of five restaurants and this was one of them. In fact, it was probably…read moremy favorite one. When you're the only person who looks like you in the place and you're surrounded by brown people speaking other languages, you've likely found an authentic place with great food. Ittadi was definitely that place. They have a huge buffet of food, TONS of options, but you can also tell the food is fresh. And the place was so busy that you know the food didn't sit long and was refreshed often. We tried the coconut samosa, which was large in size. It was the perfect combo of savory and sweet. We also had the egg chop, which is a hard boiled egg covered in spicy mashed potatoes and fried in a crispy breadcrumb coating. It was super spicy (in a good way) and delish. It came with a side of onions and greenery. We also had the haleem, which is a comfort dish, made of lentils. It was so warm and filling. Absolutely delicious. The employees/owners were so kind. They were really invested in us liking our food. When we didn't eat everything, they were concerned, but we told them we were on a food crawl and had to save space, otherwise we would have devoured everything. Again, this was my favorite place of the whole crawl, and I would make the trek back over to Queens just for this food.

I often eat shingara, samosa, chicken patties, and piyaju from this restaurant. My family and I…read morelove eating them, and we've never had any complaints for the taste or quality. We did receive rotten sauce one time, but never again. During Ramadan, I was really craving an Iftar box meal. My dad bought me one from this place, and it came with biryani, fritters, and fruits. I was honestly scared to try the biryani because I usually dislike the ones outside because they smell, have too much oil, or just straight up taste bad. But honestly, the biryani was so good... I was really surprised, and definitely proven wrong. I would get it again! I did find one of the fritters in the Iftar box to be mid, but I cannot remember which one as it isn't something I have ordered often. My main reasons for giving this restaurant 4 stars is because I agree with one of the other reviews that mention the ambiance not being so good. I don't think this is somewhere you could sit down and have a meal in quiet without getting overstimulated as it is next to the train station on Diversity Plaza, where a lot of people just hang out. This is one of the to-go places where people often get tea or snacks from, so you'll see people going in and out A LOT. As for service, I'm not sure what to say because it's always been my dad who ordered and dealt with the staff, so I can't say much. But he usually tells us if any restaurant staff makes him mad, so as far as I recall, he never complained about the service. Also, I have never tried the main course food items, such as pulao and roast. So I cannot comment on how those taste, but reading the other views, it seems they weren't too good. And I'm seeing that people had complaints about cleanliness of the restaurant and how there is a lack of proper plumbing systems. I guess I never noticed this because I never actually sat in the restaurant.. Maybe I should eat from here less often?
