But I gave them a check-in. They are located right next to Duane Reade. 440 86 st. It's a busy avenue, so there is always foot traffic, and that's great for business. They were actually cleaning the cart when I arrived, and that's always a plus. The cart is very well lit and maintained.

The brother behind the counter was the owner, and a very nice Bengali guy. We ordered 2 shrimp tacos, one chicken taco, and a steak taco. Late night taco cravings during Ramadan. The place is halal, as stated in the name. The tacos were American style, with sour cream, lettuce, and cheese. Bro added the sauces and made them to order, we waited 5-10 mins. And it was so yummy and def it the spot, served warm. I would return for more! And I would def recommend others to give it a try. They have other options like gyro, burrito, crunch wrap, burgers, wings. Food handled with respect and care, would recommend and go again to try other things on the menu!

When it's not packed though, there's actually a decent amount of seating. They also clearly renovated the space; the restaurant and even the bathrooms looked really clean and modern with nice tile work. I ordered both the chicken shawarma and the lamb/beef shawarma platter. The chicken was excellent; juicy, flavorful, and definitely the standout. The lamb/beef was decent, but a little tough for my taste. The rice was okay, nothing special. I also got the shepherd salad, which was clearly fresh, but it had cilantro in it, which caught me off guard since that's not typical in most shepherd salads I've had. A little label or warning would go a long way; or preferably a small cilantro-free version for people like me lol. I ended up coming back again to try the chicken shawarma sandwich, this time with just tomatoes on their homemade bread, and honestly that was amazing. The bread came out hot with a crispy exterior and really made the sandwich stand out. The staff was warm and friendly both times I went, which definitely added to the experience. Portion sizes aren't huge for the price, but they're still reasonable overall. Definitely worth trying, especially the chicken and the homemade bread.

For sure I saw one was a samosa but the others I'm not familiar with. I think they're potato/beef filled. I got mix meat in a pita. The pita was very flavorful- it has ridges and brown. They will ask what toppings you want and they have around 8-9 items to choose from. I loaded the pita with diced red onions, tomatoes, cucumbers and purple cabbage. It was very delicious and hearty.

I always order the Fam Fest online which comes with 10 pc thighs and legs, 3 sides, and 3 biscuits for $21.99, before tax and tips. Even when delivered slightly late, the fried chicken remains crispy and hot. The biscuits and fries are a hit or miss. Lately, the biscuits have been really dry. The mashed potatoes and cole slaw are okay. The corn on the cob was super mushy and my least favorite. I also tried the hell sauce because it was only $0.50 and I was curious. It wasn't bad but I wouldn't order it again because of the texture. It's a very thick and creamy sauce that tastes better mixed with ketchup.

The 4 for $5.99 promotion attracted my attention, so that's what I ordered. It came with a leg, breast, thigh, and a biscuit. It's interesting that they include the biscuits as one of the item. The sign can be a bit misleading. The chicken was crispy and juicy. The spicy chicken has a kick to it. It's not very spicy but you do feel the heat in your mouth.

I had my first opportunity to visit Gobuki today. I dropped by around 2PM and the stall was empty…read moresans the male and female couple manning the cart. A quick look at the menu yields the usual suspects found on fast food Korean menus: kalbi over rice and bulgogi sandwich. However, what intrigued me was the fried udon, which I ended up ordering. The chef stir fried a pack of white udon noodles with sliced cabbage and carrots, adding sesame oil, soy sauce and oyster sauce. I was pretty happy when the tourists walking by murmured, "That smells so good." As a Yelper, you have to love "food envy". I added on extra beef and when I received my order, I was pleasantly surprised by the weight. Seemed like a great bargain for $8. I settled back at my apartment and started my feast. The dish was packed with udon, rice, bulgogi, veggies and three fried dumplings. The dumplings were subpar, but still a nice side dish, acting similar to a breadbasket. It's there for you, but you don't have to eat it. The top was covered with bulgogi and Korean chili sauce, an above average showing for a food cart. The beef is nicely marinated and with the paste had a nice sweet and mildy spicy flavor. The udon noodles were excellent. Fried and cooked with soy sauce and oyster sauce, the noodles had a slight brown tint and smelled amazing The lady also drizzled some aioli sauce and bundled with the veggies gave off a creamy texture. Add to the fact that it's a rare dish to find at a food truck, gives the fried udon even more value. All in all, it seemed like a great and solid cart. Hopefully, Gobuki will stay for a while and the lines will start forming (not sure how it is during prime lunch time). I do have to note that the surface for cooking was rather small, so there could be a production logjam if customers are ordering the fried udon in multiples.

Sometimes......I just get sick and tired of grilled chicken salads!!!!!…read more So I decided to explore 1 block over and saw the Gobuki Food Cart. Bapcha used to be there and I didn't like their food that much (plus their cheap portions), but I saw a different team there and figured to give it a shot. The kalbi is VERY flavorful and the meat to rice ratio is pretty good (not cheap with the meat). They also offer it in a (baguette) and have bulgoki (with rice or on baguette also), mandu, spicy chicken, and fried udon. Looking forward to the fried udon next time I go there. Decent prices ranging from $6-$8. The only downfall is that it's a long line and you may have to wait a little - but better than Duke (feels like sardines in there!).

Their raita was the perfect mix of sweet, creamy, and refreshing. Will definitely be back to satiate my naan cravings.
