The food is outstanding and the people are very friendly and extremely welcoming. My "go-to" dish is the chicken and rice platter with salad. As mentioned, the food quality is exceptional, very flavorful and always fresh. Chicken chunks are very tender and well seasoned. The rice is delicious and the salad is always fresh, crisp and cold. They have a wide variety of sauces and they always ask if you need more. And, yes, the platters are enormous. It is literally impossible to walk out of this place feeling hungry. The Halal Spot also has lamb, falafel, butter chicken and wide variety of other dishes. So if you are looking for a place that serves outstanding food, enormous portions that is reasonably priced. Your "go-to" spot should be The Halal Spot. Yes, it is that good!

I ordered the paneer platter and it was ok. I feel there was more rice than the paneer given. I wish there was a spice level option as well because I like spicy food. The web page pictures are misleading because for one the Makhni in the picture is more of a yellow curry base, whereas what I got was more of a red-orange (more so the color shown in the tikka masala image). My friend ordered the butter chicken and it was the same deal with the color, but I also have never had either dish before with a more yellow curry base so lol I just wanted to say it's inconsistent. We also ordered the Heavenly Hummus to share. Hummus was good, pita was good, but whatever was spread on top of the pita to make it a "garlic bread" was very strange tasting. We didn't particularly enjoy that portion of the pita.

I've never been to Honeygrow and as a genuine food reviewer wanted to try it.. the place looked very interesting and the inside was really good.. easy to order with their digital menu and the service was good.. pricing was average, not too high and not too low kind of a pricing.. ambience was good Ordered garlic bread.. they give a couple of pieces of bread with an interesting sauce and it tasted good... It was very different from any other garlic breads that I had. Also ordered a vegetarian stirfry noodle... initially I thought the quantity was less looking at the packing, but when I unboxed it at home, it was sumptuous.. veg stirfry was really good and stomach full.. I also ordered butter chicken stirfry noodle.. to be Frank. I just saw 1-2 pieces of chicken. I was so disappointed... taste was almost similar to the vegetarian stirfry noodle.. I really did not get any additional chicken curry taste.. Want to give a 3 star but gave it a 4 star for their vegetarian stirfry and the service.

Mind you that 16 pieces of chicken and over half was thrown away. Did not taste good and I didn't want food poisoning for my two young granddaughters. Well voucher came and what a shock that it was for $15. That doesn't even cover the cost of chicken. This is kfc supposing valuing my business. Talk about cheap. They owed me at least cost of bad chicken to retain my business. That was such an insult that I won't be returning. $30.00 for legs and thighs is not cheap and to throw away killed me.

Only thing that was a miss for me was the bacon cheese fries. The fries themselves were meh, and the bacon was a bit chewy and had an overwhelming maple scent. Overall, pretty solid place to grab a quick bite on a nice day.

The rice was cooked perfectly and seasoned just right. With full stomached we still indulged in dessert - the biscoff tres leches and the berry cheesecake. Both made in house, the cheesecake was the winner for me. Super delicious and had a nice texture. The service left just a little something to be desired but the food absolutely made up for it.

My introduction to Chick-fil-A came courtesy of a friend who rang me up, bubbling with excitement…read moreover their "Paint a Pot" spring welcome event. She and her husband are regulars, and on occasion, they even join in on Bingo nights there. We decided to grab a meal before the painting program. Brilliant marketing strategy on Chick-fil-A's part, I must say, because it absolutely worked on me. Walking in as a first-timer, I was studying the menu when the manager noticed and came right over to help. I mentioned I didn't have much of an appetite, and he guided me toward the nugget meal; a smart suggestion, since it came with a choice of drink and waffle fries at a very reasonable price. Helpful, attentive, and not pushy. A great first impression. Here is my rating for the meal: ~ Chicken Nuggets ~ 4/5 stars A small mix-up on my end: I accidentally ordered the classic nuggets instead of the grilled variety. I'd seen the photo but missed that all-important word, "grilled." Entirely my fault -- and honestly, no complaints. They were freshly made and wonderfully crispy. The manager also noticed I was unfamiliar with the sauces and asked whether I preferred spicy or sweet, then generously sent me off with Zesty Buffalo, Sweet Sriracha, and a ranch to play it safe. A thoughtful touch. ~ Waffle Fries ~ 5/5 stars These were the standout dishes of the meal. Generously sized, with a slight crispness on the outside that gives way to a soft, fluffy interior. No condiments needed -- they're perfect on their own. I highly recommend it. ~ Strawberry Hibiscus Lemonade ~ 4.5/5 stars Balanced, refreshing, and thirst-quenching. The citrus is front and center, with a pleasant sweetness that doesn't overwhelm. A refill was happily offered -- and happily accepted. ~ Strawberry Hibiscus Sunjoy ~ 5/5 stars My friend recommended it, and she was absolutely right. This one blends their classic lemonade with freshly brewed sweetened iced tea, landing somewhere between tart and floral and lighter on the sweetness than the lemonade, and a touch more nuanced. It's my new favorite. Don't skip it. The staff throughout the evening were attentive and genuinely warm, keeping the dining area clean and tidy without missing a beat. One curious observation: there's a basket near the counter where unused condiments, dipping sauces, and children's meal prizes are collected, sanitized, and offered to the next guest. All in all, a wonderful first visit. Good food, great company, and a charming painting event to round out the evening. I'll be back, and next time I'll remember to say "grilled."

Of course, these days they are even better than in my childhood as they offer more alternatives than just slider or cheese slider. Gotta have that Double Jalapeño Burger doubled with crinkle Fries and soda, and savor them all the way home. True to form, while in Keyport, NJ, last weekend, I checked and discovered a White Castle not 6 miles away on Route 9. It was about 10 minutes away, and though it lengthened my home bound route, I was totally game. I found it (despite its tricky entrance driveway right off the highway), ordered my standard double double, and slowly indulged all the way back to Pennsylvania. By now, I know how to hold the cardboard sleeve it comes in so that I don't touch the burger and simply squeeze the holder enough to expose what my bite can handle. Easy and clean down to the last chomp. This was strictly drive through, so I can't comment on the inside of the building. However, service was prompt and professional, with a little bit of whimsy from the cashier who seemed to enjoy his job immensely. Although I was pretty much sated from before in Keyport, I found out a long time ago that I always have room for White Castle. May it always be so.
