★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Amir Mohammed · Nov 2025

There is a reason this place is mostly dead. The chicken and rice was terrible. Way too much salt in the chicken, the rice had no flavor. The lettuce, tomatoes, salad items were left out in open with no covers. I have eaten chicken and rice for over 20 years mostly from the food carts in MidTown Manhattan and this place comes nowhere near to it. Dont eat here if you like food that has flavor. $22 for 2 orders of chicken and rice.

Just thought i should let you know if you look past the counter you can see construction equipment specifically "Husky" brand drywall/taping knifes being used to cut chicken, lamb, and bread on the stove. These drywall taping knifes do not use kitchen grade steel or silicone and is lining your food with chromium and melted plastic. not that i have to say it but chromium and plastic cause cancer. If you dont believe me see for yourself or maybe ask. If you've been eating their sorry but maybe you shouldn't anymore... no i didn't sneak photos like a weirdo. These photos are provided by the restaurants own pages. Amazing 🙃

The Gyro here is amazing - you gotta try their mixed Gyro (Chicken & Lamb)get the super spicy sauce mixed with the regular white sauce and it is heavenly.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 M Asim Qamar (Asim) · Sep 2024

Just an average platter place chicken is red with food coloring and not much flavor Very least portion of gyro on mix platter. They also have many other halal food options Tons of parking but inside seating area is outdated and again its average not mu of aesthetic.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Alex L. · Feb 2022

Decent quick eats spot for chicken & rice. Platters for under $10 is not bad considering the good portion size. Salads looked fresh and service was overall friendly. Didn't try the sandwich so can't comment on that. They have cash discount too. Check them out if your in the area and want to try something different for lunch/dinner.
