The lamb over rice I had for the first time was delicious. The container was sturdy and convenient for carrying around. I want to visit New York again to have this meal.

This is the best chicken over rice in the city & I’ve had plenty. What a great experience & great white sauce too. 🔥 …

Absolutely delicious. We tried a few items veg and non-veg both, and everything was amazing. Chef takes his time preparing and making food one item or two items at a time, and still, it was almost no wait. Everything was made to our individual liking. Would love to go again!

Took my food to go. The lamb over rice was delicious with white sauce and hot sauce. Portion size was plenty for only $9.

Clean and definitely get your money's worth. Ordered a combination gyro and 2 can cokes for $10. Gyro was over flowing and great! Picture doesn't look great but they aren't working on looks! Fyi, I had him add their hot sauce, that's why it's red! Damn good for a small food trailer!

I LOVE this place! Lots of diverse options for both meat eaters and vegetarians! The chicken and lamb platter is so so delicious, the flavor on the meat is amazing and the perfect amount of spice. The gyro is also delicious and you cannot beat the price for the size. What makes it better is the man working is so kind. A great establishment and highly recommend eating from here if you want halal!

Fantastic food and excellent service. During my stay, Mama's Halal food was opposite my hotel and I went there everyday!!! DO NOT got to the arabian cart next door. He's a scammer. Tried charging me $7 just for fries. Mama's halal cart always has their prices listed. I tried numerous dishes throughout the week and every single one of them was a 10/10. Huge portions for a excellent price. It all tasted fresh!!
