    Falafel Over Rice, Baklava
    Gabby H.

    I ordered the falafel platter and baklava. The falafel is very dense, dry, and unlike any I've had before, which is not at all what I was expecting given it being a halal restaurant. The rice and toppings were adequate. I also ordered traditional baklava, but instead received the assorted box, which is a minor change. The service was very speedy and I received my order within a few minutes of ordering. The restaurant was a nice area for a quick bite but not really a cozy environment for more then a quick stop or takeout. Overall the experience was nothing exceptional. The falafel is definitely not something I will be ordering again, but if you're open to non-vegetarian options those may be better.

    Super fresh super hot just made halal combo with salad. As good if not better than my favorite Shah's. If coming East and needing a halal fix bookmark this spot.

    Having been spending more time on the East End lately, I've been sorely missing one of my favorite Manhattan guilty pleasures: halal cart food. Needless to say I was excited to discover Shah's Halal here in Riverhead, a shining crown jewel in a shopping center otherwise filled with useless garbage (e.g. Christmas Tree Shops and an Aldi that smells like feet). Shah's is sparkling clean, has smiling employees, and is very reasonably priced- probably one of the best values in the area. The combo (chicken/lamb) over rice was soooo good. Move over, Chipotle- this is going to be my new lunch treat every time I make my weekly shopping pilgrimage from the North Fork to Riverhead.

    Very good food and service. The staff were very nice and helpful, and the food was devine. Very good quality. Must try, definitely recommend!

    Good food at this place but was pretty annoyed the pricing is different if you order online via yelp or if you go in! Pretty standard halal cart style food, very fresh. Definitely not Halal guys good but not bad!

    The bomb! And the hot sauce is actually hot. I just wish they had some better drink options. Not really a soda or Snapple guy.

    ZERO!!!. I hate that I had to add even one star to place this review!…read more My husband and I ordered for the first time this evening. I ordered a lamb gyro and he ordered a chicken sandwich, PLAIN, cutlet on a bun. No pickles, coleslaw, plain! He received a sandwich with EVERYTHING on it! My gyro was like something that I have never seen in my life! The menu says protein, COMES With SALAD and FRIES. It was a pita with lamb CUBES covered in French fries and chopped lettuce with white sauce. I have taken photos, it was disgraceful! I have no idea who would ever eat this slop! I called to speak with the owner and was told he would come to the phone and placed on hold... then disconnected. Called back and was then told that the owner wasn't there! STAY AWAY!

    A lot of new businesses have opened up around my town. Specifically restaurants. This gives me the…read morebest opportunity to start yelping more. When I saw "Smack N' Chick" I knew it would be next.Parking in a big lot was easy. It's nice to have so much space. The front of the building looks modern, very well put together. I just wish I saw more of that from the inside. The inside was modern with one large TV playing basketball playoffs. They have a few tables on the side and a counter on the far side of the restaurant. So at the counter, the cashier working didn't seem all that interesting in helping. He took our order, and told us they don't have certain items. We asked to see the menu and he said that the pricing is different. Why would that be? Going to sit down we noticed right away, how unclean the table tops were. Not one table was cleaned. We had to ask for napkins to wipe it ourselves. When the food came out, we grabbed it right away. There was one issue, we both ordered no pickles, however one order came with them. I started with the fries. The fries were incredible! I was surprised how good they were. What added to the flavor was the Smacking Sauce they gave with them. It was delicious and had flavor. Now the chicken. First off, it had too much flavorless powder on it. It got onto everything. The powder had no real taste, but it did leave a smell on my hands, even after I washed them. Speaking of, the bathroom had little soap and no paper towels. But, the chicken, definitely wasn't the worst I had. Very generous piece. If I came back I would definitely get the fries and sauce. However, the chicken would be substituted for lamb. Smack N Chick is identical to a restaurant in Hicksville New York, minus chicken standards. I guess it's hard to duplicate the king.

There was a large selection of baked goods, so I got a black and white cookie, omelette and latte. Everything was just ok in terms of taste. I didn't realize the place was kosher either, so no meat.

    Wow. Hadn't been here in QUITE a long time. It's undergone a giant expansion, from a small counter…read moreand a few tables, to much more space with many more tables. The menu is bigger, too. I remember a case filled with just bread, and I think that they did cakes and some desserts, too. Now there's many more desserts as well as bread. Alas, the only gluten-free item is coconut macaroons. Hopefully they will add some gluten-free items in the future. Coffee selection was great. You pay at the counter and pour your own. It was later in the day, so I did half decaf and half hazelnut. Yum! We didn't get any food, because we had already had lunch. Service was good. We just ordered coffee cups and I asked about gluten-free items. The man who answered did seem regretful. I'm guessing that he's been asked many times before. I have a wheat allergy, and other people have gluten sensitivity, so perhaps some day they'll expand their offerings. In the meantime, I'll keep baking my own protein cookies and flatbread. I've found commercial gluten-free bagels and English muffins, woohoo!
