Halal Plates
Jack L.

A 5/5 establishment if I've ever seen one. No nonsense, insanely affordable, tasty, and efficient service. What else is there to ask for from a halal truck with the ambiance of bustling New York City streets in the background? Food was fresh, tasty, great portions, and my wife and I got out of there spending around $25 combined for a great meal.. I miss when this was the norm. Please go to Sharif's famous for your halal cravings.

Menu December 2025
Lizzie S.

Delicious, quick, reasonably-priced, filling combo gyro (lamb and chicken) for $8 next to Koreatown/Herald Square in the year of 2025? And I paid with a credit card! Amazing. Unheard of. Good flavor and red and white sauce. Very good service--I love that man. I can't imagine a better late-night eat after being out and about.

Combo (Lamb + Chicken) over Rice
Ben W.

Convenient halal cart near Koreatown so a fun vibe if you want to sit and eat near by, and overall the plate was fine. I got the combo over rice (lamb + chicken), and the lamb was definitely had more flavor. The chicken, on the other hand, was pretty dry but it was a good sized portion. The white sauce was great, and the hot sauce had a solid kick, so points there. What surprised me were some of the additions: the fries were unexpected but actually added a nice texture, while the salad was easily the worst part. Slightly off tomatoes, limp lettuce, and beans mixed in for some reason. Decent stop if you are in the area and hungry but not amazing. Service was quick and friendly.

Chicken over rice

Very fast service and the sauces on this were delicious! It's a good truck right in front of my favorite store so loved that! Very very affordable and will be coming back here again.

combo over rice

Got the combo over rice. It was about $10 when paying with cash. Generous amount of sauce & the sauce was pretty good. I think next time I just get the lamb though as I enjoyed it more than the chicken. Also there are small amounts of onions mixed in.

Lamb and Chicken Combo Over Rice
Joey R.

If you want a good authentic food truck, SHARIF IS WHERE YOU COME!! The food was SO GOOD and beautifully balanced in its spices. A plate is 10 dollars, which is pretty fair, and they make sure you get your money's worth because most of the plate is meat! I got the Lamb and Chicken Combo Plate with both white and red sauce. That is THE ORDER. Staff is friendly and the truck is so close to the train station, it's a perfect meal before or after the train!

Amazing food truck with amazing vibes! It's only 10 for a lamb platter and the food was so satisfying! They are extremely accommodating and quick! The hotdog that I got was a nice appetizer and was only $4! The chilli cheese one is $6, I definitely need to try it next time ! I WILL be coming back!

Falafel over rice
Prerana D.

such a solid halal food truck that gives big portions and for $10 a platter!! they are super fast and friendly as well. as a vegetarian, I'm picky about falafel and it was so crispy n packed with flavor here. everything about this bowl just hit while being perfectly filling. the salad they put on the side and being able to add more of a certain topping w no extra charge is much appreciated as well. it's in the heart of herald square too so there's lots of tables nearby to sit and eat!

Mixed platter over rice
Levi M.

One of the spots for halal in New York City, they put care into their sauces and meats that you don't find in most places. Make sure you ask for extra white sauce.

Combo Over Rice
Emily G.

Really hit the spot after a night out. The food truck is right by Koreatown. It was a short wait for combo rice, and $10 cash for a combo rice/most of the meat + rice platters. (Staff mentioned there is a slight upcharge for using credit card, although I'm not sure how much) They also check you're okay with having all the toppings + which sauces you want.

Combo over rice
William L.

Food here slaps. The combo over rice is delicious--the rice is fragrant, meats are great, the salad has tomatoes and beans, and they add pita and fries too. Definitely get both sauces. Service is standard for a food truck, a bit rude or focused sometimes but you get what you get. Ambiance is...well, a food truck in midtown

Traditional Chicken Combo Over Rice
Mohammed R.

The service was fast and there was no line. The rush hour traffic effect ordering on the sidewalk and after hearing colleagues brag about this truck I had to give it a try. There's a lot going on in this platter for only $10. The chicken is tender, the rice is filling, but chick peas and French fries is a whole new experience on a halal plate. I'd definitely eat here if time is short and I need to buy something reasonably priced.

Lamb gyro. A bite to show the inside. You may like it.

Every single one serve char siu and pork but not seafood. I will admit that upon entering this restaurant, I was a bit skeptical since the entrance was not very welcoming. They had their kitchen set up in the front of the restaurant which I thought was very unusual. I didn't even know they have seating in the back. The waitress let me go look. The back of the restaurant had about 5-6 tables. It was a bit too dark for my taste so I wouldn't be into sitting down to eat here. I ordered a Seafood Tonkotsu Ramen, Karaage and Chicken wonton ramen. The total came out to a little over $68. Very expensive but it made my mom and brother happy which was all that matters. They had a menu advertising first order 50% off on their app but it doesn't work and the workers knew that yet didn't bother to remove those menus. Bummer. All in all, I would come back to order take out but only once in a while since it was very expensive.

Besides Milos, I never expected Hudson Yards to have such a fantastic Mediterranean restaurant!…read more The Dip Tower was definitely the MVP. Every single dip was so delicious I wanted to take some home. The layers of flavor were amazing, and it was impossible to stop eating it with the freshly baked pita! The Yellowtail was rather ordinary. Although it contained a lot of spices, the fishy taste was still noticeable, so I wouldn't recommend it. The other dishes--North African eggs, steak, and Brussels sprouts--were just okay. The biggest surprise was the dessert--Lemon Frozen Yogurt! It was so delicious I wanted another serving!! The acidity was just right, refreshing without being too sweet. A bite after the meal was incredibly soothing. I must say, Mediterranean people really know how to make yogurt; they can make even a simple frozen yogurt look amazing.

We had a reservation for 5 initially so we're seated at a large round table near the bar. The staff gave me a nice card congratulating me on my engagement as well. It was quite cold inside all of our meal but that didn't stop us from getting cocktails. We ordered an espresso martini, a spritz and a Field Trip I believe. All good but the espresso martini was a little lackluster. We mainly shared food starting with 3 Dressed Big Rock Oysters. While the presentation was beautiful, they were a little too dressed for me. The Zou Zou's Dip Tower, however, was fabulous. Every dip was unique and delicious and had us consistently rotating between all of them. The bread that came with it was so fresh and warm and the crudo was good to use as dip vessels as well. Finally, we ended by sharing The Zou Burger and Roasted Brussels Sprouts. While it was good, the waiter forgot to remove the sumac onions like we had asked. We also had to wait long periods between being helped and the waiter didn't seem to really be that familiar with the menu when we asked questions about what we ordered. A stunning place with really good food, but for the caliber of restaurant, we shouldn't have to ask the bartender for refills or our check.

Adel's Famous Halal Food is absolutely worth the hype! A must-visit NYC street-food experience…read more We ordered the spicy rice with chicken, and the real game-changer was the sauces! Get both the green sauce and the spicy red sauce--they elevate the entire dish to another level. The portions are HUGE, there's plenty of meat, and the prices are incredibly affordable for how much food you get. The combination of flavorful rice, juicy chicken, and those sauces makes this seriously satisfying street food. I can't wait to go back and try their lamb! Service is quick, but be prepared for a looooong line. We went around midnight and still waited about 30 minutes, which is apparently a relatively short wait here! It's a classic NYC halal food stall, with no-frills street-food vibes and food that absolutely delivers. Come hungry, get both sauces, and don't let the line scare you off!

This is worth the hype guys... I have no idea how it got so popular (tiktok, ig reels, word of…read moremouth?) but everytime I passed by here during my trip there was a line. It also smelled heavenly. We decided to keep the good vibes going after the most fun night - BTS concert - since this was near our hotel, we got in line around 11:30pm? They're open until super late. Didn't even spend that long in line to be honest, or maybe I just didn't mind the wait? When you get closer to the front, the line splits into two - not sure what the system is logically but it does help with ordering faster. We got one platter for 2 people - Mixed Platter which includes rice, lamb, chicken, and a slice of pita. You also have the option to pile on some crispy french fries (why would you reject fries) and get a drizzle of various sauces. I very intelligently opted for the hot sauce on the side, and was so grateful for that because it does pack a punch! Gosh, this was so delicious. SEASONED, and everything on the plate mixed together so well in one bite. Also an excellent portion that would definitely last you at least 2-3 meals if you got it for one person. I'm for sure going back next time I'm in Manhattan.
