Opinions de Pepe's Place New Rochelle
Amazing quality food. Halal which is a plus. Food was very fresh and sauces were fantastic. Costumer service - 10 stars. Very friendly establishment.
I happened to know Pepe great man and makes amazing food amazing food great convo I'm proud to personally kno him and see his growth from beginning to now we spoke on his vision before he opened so I'm truly happy for him continue to amaze and thrive Pepe
It's been a very long time since I have been into a place where every single option is the right option I had to New York fried Chicken and it was unbelievable!!!! The hospitality and customer service was something that you normally don't experience!!!
I had the Thai chili jumbo shrimp and fish and it was delicious! 5 stars, great food.
I came all the way from Harlem, they stayed open to have my order ready!! Great customer service and the food was amazing!!!!! 😍😍😍 loves it!!
The food is freaking amazing here and the staff are fantastic. They have an awesome menu selection and would recommend them to anyone!
The whiting fish and homemade tartar sauce are pure perfection! The Mac and cheese would be except too salty.
We came back again!!! Excellent food. Consistently good. Whoever doesn’t like this food doesn’t know good food!! This is my forever spot❤️✊🏽Thai chiliShrimp, fried chicken, Mac and cheeseeeeeee and greens with mustard greens and cabbage!! If I lived closer I would be here every week! *******WE CAME BACK LOL IT WAS THAT GOOD******* *get the fish, shrimp, fried chicken (it’ll take 30mins), the greens, and the Mac. You will thank me! Came with my aunt and daughter from NJ and the BX respectively because of an old write in the NYTimes. The place exceeded our expectations in regards to ambiance, hospitality and food! The place was inviting and cozy and the staff polite and welcoming. Would highly recommend - and we will definitely be back again.
Pepe's is still my family's favorite shrimp spot. Everyone who works there is exceedingly friendly and competent. The food remains unparalleled. We will keep coming for those Buffalo and thai shrimp. No photo because I can't pause long enough to snap a picture.
Run over to Pepe's and try those Buffalo Shrimp! You will be hooked. I can't wait to try some other items but I don't live that close and I get over there and I have to have the Shrimp. Pepe himself is a great guy and it is good to support good people doing great work. Pepe, Keep it up!!!
There food is BUSSINNNNNN. OMG. Today was my first time coming to this place I can't believe it's been around for years and I didn't know about it, now I'm obsessed. I can't wait to go back because the food is so flavorful and fresh.I don't think I've ever ate so food where I haven't felt groggy and unhealthy afterwards but with this food I don't feel that way AT ALL. The man at the front counter was SUPER nice, patient and professional from the moment I entered until I left with my order. It was great to see that they follow COVID guidelines and I loved the Convenience of paying with card the touchless way.I've had other soul food in NewRochelle and it wasn't as good as this place, Pepe's Place is unmatched. Overall I highly recommend Pepe's place if you're in the mood for some tasty soul food, for sure..I had the fish shrimp mac & cheese greens yams and fries and it was all so so good, nothing was overly greasy or overcooked, it was perfect - coming from an extremely picky eater..I can't wait to order from them again
So happy to see you guys in GrubHub!!!!! Pepe's Place is one of the best seafood and soul food restaurant in New Rochelle! I will continue to support this small mom and pop establishment bc I know that I am getting genuine wholesome carefully crafted soul food. I can't always make it to Jacobs or Manna's in Harlem and city island seafood is wayyyy to expensive. Thank you for being such a wonderful gem! Holy cow.....how can I forget the Red Velvet Cake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🇺🇸🖤🇺🇸
I stumbled upon this restaurant on DoorDash and decided to give this place a shot. The food was very good; I will definitely be ordering from this restaurant again.
The food is excellent. Always fresh and well prepared with just the right amount of seasoning and flavor. The staff is top notch in customer service...professional and courteous. Pepe's is my go to spot in New Rochelle.
Shrimp and fish are delicious! Buffalo shrimp were excellent and the rice was delicious too. Also had the mac n cheese wow best I had in a lonnngg time👍
My friend Tremaine put me on to this place and I thank him everyday for this recommendation! The buffalo shrimp is my favorite! It's a flavor you never had and can't be duplicated. This place is a must!
My go to spot when i just need some good food that doesn't disappoint. The Buffalo shrimp are the best. But their chicken and lamb platters are not to be ignored.
I love their potato salad, gyro's and drinks. The food here is clean, it has a wonderful after taste. It's not heavy on the palate. I will continue to patronize this establishment. Luv his food.
A little place with a big bang. Shrimps were awesome. My family enjoyed this takeout so much. Soul food, fried food, kindness and yummyness all in one.
I normally don't write reviews but this place surprised me. I used Uber eats as well which was a bonus. I ordered a Thai Shrimp meal and a Fried Chicken meal. It was great! Food is delish and portions are great too!
Best take-out of quick sit-down in the business. Well-seasoned high quality and fresh. Call Tim customer service well-balanced menu I come from Stamford Connecticut every chance I get .that place is the bomb
I don't know who your momma is but she don't make Mac and Cheese this good. Most of the food is made to order so its ALWAYS fresh so expect to wait a few minutes but its ABSOLUTELY COMPLETELY WORTH IT.
The jumbo shrimp are very fresh and tasty! I will be coming back to Pepe’s Place. Super friendly staff that greet you when you come in. That’s a plus for me!
I was recommended by a fellow coworker and decided to get it for lunch at work. And i can say that the Mixed gyro was amazing. I now have a spot where i can regularly get food from for lunch. Loveeeeed it.
Local unassuming spot with major flavor. I swear the shrimp could bring the sun back out on a rainy day. Just go there and get shrimp (if you are not allergic)... that's all I got to say about that.
Delicious and high quality food! As soon as I saw the food I knew it was going to be great and it did not disappoint. I will be buying from here again.
The customer service is fantastic Super friendly & welcoming Food was delicious !
First timer amazing fried shrimp, it’s so over city island ! The new go too spot , most importantly they were very nice and friendly.
Amazing place food was awesome it's pricey but for the quality and service is well worth it the buffalo shrimp and whitning is perfectly fried and very tasty definitely recommend and food deserves 5 stars or more
Looking for spectacular food at a storefront dive? Look no further. Incrdible lamb and chicken gyro. Tasty sides include mustard greens, yams and, oh that mac 'n cheese.
5 star shrimp. 5 star mac and cheese. 5 star french fries. 4 star fruit punch. 5 star service and hospitality. This place is a great spot! I will be back.
I've been knowing the owner of this establishment practically all my life went to school together. My sister eats there on a regular basis where they prepare her food since she has a strict low sodium diet, so if you're in the area please check it out
The BEST Mac and cheese I’ve ever had in my life. Best gyro. The flavors are unreal. Customer for life.
Pepe's Where do I start! 1. Customer Service: Was top notch (5 Stars) for an over the counter stop. TRUST won't be long for these guys and gals to transition to a full blown restaurant (if you were looking for an early crowd source opportunity: HERE YOU ARE!). My family of six came in and were treated very well even though it was a mildly busy time. 2. Menu: Seven clear and concise areas to choose from. Everything from Meats to Seafood including tasty desserts. 3. Food: Cooked fresh super excellent! The sauces are amazing and in-house developed. The shrimp is super crispy and cooked with fresh oils. The lamb and Mac and cheese is world-class: seriously, not the squeezed stuff. Great mix of Mediterranean Food meets Soul Food. 4. Overall Experience: A+. Will be one of those places to visit everytime I'm in town. I like that it doesn't feel commercial. It felt warm and friendly suburban with a city vibe. I would definitely add to one of my family's ongoing destination spots for NY.
My family and I just stopped in to have dinner and it was delicious. We live blocks away from this spot, but have never stopped in until today. The grilled chicken and lamb platter is delicious with a little kick, and my girls loved the mac and cheese and yams. Very friendly hosts and the music was perfect.
Visited from PA... Food warms the heart. Only tartar sauce I like. Best mac n cheese, not greasy, rich, creamy, flavorful. Marshall is the kindest soul and was so friendly to me and the hubs. Love this place!
Yummmm! I’m not usually one for fried fish/shrimp and soul food, but I was having a rough day and needed something deep fried. This food was soo satisfying! Hubby and I tried the Thai shrimp, Buffalo shrimp, fried fish, yams, mustard greens and Mac and cheese (yeah we went in! 😂). The fish was phenomenal, crisp, flavorful but not really greasy. Both shrimps were good, but I preferred the Thai. The Buffalo shrimp had more heat than flavor…. And no blue cheese dressing?!? The greens were excellent. I LOVED the Mac and cheese. It wasn’t typical soul food Mac and cheese… it was a bit more simple in flavor. My husband did not like it. Ha! He loved the yams, but they were too sweet for me. All in all a very satisfying meal. Definitely recommended if you want something indulgent.
Just moved to New Rochelle from Queens and I was a little worried about the food options here. Pepe's Place is definitely a gem in this town. The service was great and most importantly their food is excellent. I had the buffalo shrimp with fried whitefish, mustard greens, Mac and cheese and the homemade fruit punch 👍👍 Owner/chef doesn't believe in microwaving food; my kind of guy! Already became my go-to spot 🙌
Friendly crew that prepares arguable most delicious takeout dish of New Rochelle. Buffalo shrimp or Thai chili shrimp with fries are the way to go. (Comes with french fries) Generous portion sizes and amazing fresh flavors every time. Small issues i have: -they give lemon slices that i could only see under a microscope (1/6 of a lemon/lime boys) -Fries are served under shrimp and get soggy in sauce, ruining texture of the fries. They should be served seperately. -Pricing is tough at $23 for a meal for 1 with cheaper options like avenue deli and chicken joes in the area. Love this spot when I'm willing to shell some cash for a tasty protein-rich meal.
Delicious fast food. Home cooked not frozen. Flavorful and great portion size. Lots of options. I am a really big beef person but the have turned me into a fish person. Their fish is excellent. Have ordered from them many times and they never disappoint.
I would definitely recommend people to come here driving or walking, I usually don't write reviews as much but, me and my girlfriend loved the food. The flavor and portion given was on point, I can't wait to get another plate again one of these days. Plus the cook came out and greeted me so I appreciate that kind gester as well.
I came to new rochelle to pick up some empinadas and was looking for something extra. I goggle this restaurant and saw a chicken and lamb gyro. I went there and ordered. The place had one person in it.i thought he was waiting for his order. But he worked there. We got to talking about how some places describe there food like they changed the wheel. I was commenting about two their menu items and the chef came out the kitchen and gave me samples of each dish and they were great. I purchased the lamb and chicken gyro and I ate it hours after a purchased itand was delicious. The gentleman I spoke to was the chef and his brother. The place may not look like much but the food and the people make all the difference and I will definitely be going back
Tasty food! We like their gyros, buffalo wings, jumbo shrimp and fries. Their macaroni & cheese is rated highly and when I tried it I was not disappointed. OMG! The Thai Jumbo Shrimp is sweet, a bit spicy and completely deeeelicious😋 My only concern is drink options. I asked for fresh juice but got something that tasted like Sunny Delight. It's a good place for takeout as the service is fast and friendly. You can eat in if you don't mind bar stools and a narrow counter. Note that they're closed Mondays and Tuesdays.
I will start by saying that I am a big fan of buffalo sauce. I read a ton of reviews and articles raving about this place. Many of them seemed hyperbolic. After eating the buffalo shrimp gyro I can confidently say that it is not hyperbole. Before today there were 4 meals I've had in my life that stand out as transcendent. Now there are 5. I never would have imagined a buffalo shrimp gyro from a tiny place in New Rochelle would have a life-changing emotional impact on me, but here we are. If you are a fan of buffalo sauce then stop what you're doing and go here. There is a white sauce on the gyro as well. I don't know if that comes with the platter, but make sure you get it and eat it together with the shrimp. All of the reviews, the articles, and the foodie lists still did not prepare me for what I experienced today. Beware of the impact this shrimp will have. The pre-Pepe era of my life is over, and the vastly different reality of the post-Pepe era has begun in a disorienting yet euphoric haze.
Best food I had. I'm from Long Island passing through and it caught my eye. Glad I stopped in. I had the mix plate...chicken and lamb platter...and it was so far the best I had. Also tried the mac and cheese and out of this world. I'm definitely coming back to try the all day breakfast platter which is challah French toast and boneless fried chicken breast on top. Need to also try the thai chili shrimp!!! Great music while you eat!!!
great place for halal food in new rochelle, great owner and staff. this is a place that will make you feel comfortable by the people, the service, and the food. The shrimp meals are a little pricey but not more than city island and for the flavor it is absolutely worth it. The owner makes great weekly dessert specials that are to die for. Not open on Mondays but it worth the wait until tuesday.
I am so ashamed to say that I have lived in New Rochelle for over a decade and have never eaten at this restaurant. I look forward to trying the entire menu. I am regretting that I didn't try the Thai chili jumbo shrimp first, but I wasn't pleasantly satisfied with the jumbo shrimp, ling fish, and fries. The house tartar sauce and coleslaw almost made me wish that I asked for extra on the side and I rarely eat coleslaw.
We ordered two Jumbo Shrimp with Ling Whiting meals😋 with sides of mustard greens😋 and Tahitian Vanilla bean yams😋...Everything was absolutely delicious!! Fresh and properly prepared neatly. The little cup of coleslaw was awesome just way toooo smalll!!! Next time we'll order a side of cole slaw and more shrimp. This lovely little place is so much Better than City Island which is where we were headed, but so happy we found Pepe's!! Thank You for the good good food!! Walter and Sharon
My husband and I came here tonight for the first time and we will be back. We had the fish, yams, potato salad, and turnip greens. Everything was delicious and we plan to frequent this establishment on a regular basis. We’ve been to many Soulfood spots but this by far is in our top three, you will not be disappointed.
First visit - Good food, good value and nice people - what more can you expect from takeout. Had the Moroccan Lamb Gyro - excellent and a meal in itself now I'll have to go back and try the other three varieties - a meal for 6 bucks - not much room left for a side, but based on a sampling they are worth a try as well (Mac & cheese, collards, yams....).
Pepes is my go to spot when I'm in the vicinity. The buffalo shrimp and fried fish if heaven to me. Their special homemade drink is delicious. Not only is the food tasty but the service is great. Good conversation good consistent food. What more can you ask for. Support our local business!!
The food here is as amazing!!! Fried fish gyro ia amazing perfection, buffalo shrimp (Best of Westchester), addictive Mac & cheese, lovely candied (not to sweert and light!), fried chicken that stays crispy even after a20 minute drive!!! The only reason I cannot say more is because a friend hipped me to this place a few weeks ago and I have tried the entire menu. Each time is just as good as the last. It is DELICIOUS!!! The staff is equally as amazing. I will be trying everything on the menu and then come back after that again and again. GREAT all around! 😄
Best service and food in NY! Small place with very limited seating but it doesn't even matter. Food still tastes amazng even when taken to go. Delicious fried chicken, thai chili shrimp and all sides! The hospitality showed by Evan, gentleman in the front, was top notch!!! A must try.
Best Buffalo shrimp I've ever had... Fast bites and takeout, although there are a few seats to eat there... Not a formal dining establishment... But not a problem either... Kind of staff that warms your heart/soul and the kind of food that will make you look forward to your next visit.
Food was excellent! Fresh and hot. Pepe was in the back cooking but came out and spent quite a bit of time chatting and telling his history. Also gave us samplings of other menu items. Great place and super friendly people.
Really nice people, justly proud of the top notch food they serve. Exquisite halal food. I had Indian bbq chicken plate, boneless, delicately spiced, served over tender flavored rice. They do spices really, really well: Tahitian vanilla sweet potatoes, tender mustard greens with a hint of sweetness, the fragrant entrees. For dessert an unadvertised apple bread pudding with sauce that made me want to run around the block telling everyone. Just so you know, the warm creamy coleslaw is poetry. Currently closed Mon & Tues
I can’t say enough about the service and the food. Exceeded my expectations. I came in right before closing and the food was fresh, made to order, (wasn’t salty) and delicious The service was phenomenal. I will definitely be back. Thank you, my family enjoyed everything 💫
I so love this spot. A Diamond in the Ruff so to speak. I ate from here pre-covid and it's a beautiful thing that they are still around and the food is still delicious. I was so hungry I forgot to snap some photos but I had the Chili Shrimp, greens and Mac and cheese. Very enjoyable ☺️
The Indian bbq gyro there is out of this world and huge! And at a price that can't be beaten! Seriously, I've had gyros all over nyc and never have had one as big or tasty as this. Excellent customer service too! Marshall and the workers there are all like family and very down to earth. Will be returning but with a crowd next time!
I looove this place! Ive tasted multiple things from the menu and ive never been disappointed. The buffalo and Thai shrimp are delicious. Also good is fried chicken, mac n cheese All desserts the chef ever makes is good! One visit while waiting for my food the owner and chef was making macaroni salad and let us try some. .also Yumm! I will drive out of my way to pickup food from Pepe's. I tell everyone about them. Lastly, not only is the food always on point but every staff member is a complete pleasure. I hope they are around for a long time.
As soon as I stepped in I was greeted by Pepe himself and engaged into some small chat and was also greeted by his awesome staff. The restaurant is very clean and welcoming with the amazing customer service it felt like I was right at home. And I had bought a Mac and cheese dish I can't quite remember the name but as I took a bite I couldn't even believe how much flavor came out of one bite instantly it took over and I felt nothing but bliss and I couldn't help myself but to share with my family and they all had the same priceless reaction as me! I will definitely be a recurring customer this was a gem so close to me and I had no idea!! Thank you Pepe and the staff!
Best fried shrimp dinner I’ve ever had. Large delicious shrimp with the perfect crunch. I got the Thai chili sauce on the side. It also came with delicious homemade skin-on hand cut fries. Also, what they call their tarter sauce is really a high-end garlic aioli, which is awesome on both the shrimp and fries. A small simple coleslaw is also included, which was refreshing. While my order was being prepared I got the pleasure of chatting with Marshall,; a very nice experience and amazing food. I’ll be back!
Loved this place and I was pregnant when I first stumbled upon Pepe’s. The owner was so gracious to me and even gave me a free dessert on the house. I hope to see him open again soon. I see that he commented that his gas line was hit and he’s waiting for it to be repaired! Wishing him the best ♥️♥️🙏🍉
We stumbled upon this spot passing through New Rochelle. Such great service and the food was delicious. The Thai chilli shrimp is so yummy, the hand cut fries remind you of your mom's, the Mac n Cheese was tasty and the greens did their job. I can not forget the fried whitting, 5 stars. Also, the black cherry punch is exactly what you need to wash it all down. Thanks Pepe's.
It is one of the most memorable experiences of my life. It was not only the food that was excellent but also the service that was excellent. When my friend and I finished eating, the chef came out and asked us what we thought of the food. As brutally honest as possible, I told him what I thought. This restaurant is a must-try for everyone. Please show your support. It's a decision you won't regret.
Dropped by while passing thru to NYC. So happy that I did. Although the place was empty, I walked in because of a several great recommendation. The place is super casual spot. The owner, Pepe, was in the back cheffing it up! Pepe is such a humble man, cheerful man. I ordered the Thai chili jumbo shrimp and ling (Whiting) combo platter with rice, lettuce and tomato. Well, everything was fresh cut and not frozen!! The fries were "home" for me. So many nights as a child, my mom would cut up potatoes and make fresh fries and I hated them because they weren't McDonald's fries Now, I will take my fresh cut fries over any fast-food spot! These fries are the real deal! Made fresh to order. Worth the extra calories. The shrimp and fish combo was also excellent! Well seasoned and atop a bed of flavorful yellow rice. My tummy was happy and I will be back! Always excited to support small businesses and it is truly a bonus to me personally when the business is Black/Minority owned.
I had the most juiciest buffalo shrimp and the sauce/ coating was delicious. I love my Mac and cheese baked and crisp but they do it differently here and I didn’t care. It was still delicious. And the greens !!!! Omg the best. You have to come here. Service was also great and very helpful.
The food is delicious. I am a big fan of their buffalo and sweet Thai chili but definitely the Buffalo shrimp, yams, Mac and cheese and Mediterranean rice. Their individual cheesecakes are so cute and delicious. Please give this place a try.
I just had the their buffalo shrimp and it was incredible. Very flavorful and fried just right.
Customer service is beyond amazing. Came with my mom and my husband and we were greeted with warm smiles. The owner even came out to say hello. We were asked if it was our first time here (it was) and we were given samples. Food was delicious! And fresh! We’ll definitely be back. Thank you again for amazing service and food!!!
Pepe is very warm and friendly. Very unique flavors, unexpected for soul food. My kids loved the gyros. Delicious shrimp, especially the teriyaki. It's a hole in the wall line of atmosphere, but the best kind where the food is great!
Popped in Ny for my Fathers birthday and he wanted fish and chips. No other restaurant was open at 1pm for lunch but Pepe’s place. My father enjoyed his birthday meal and I had a great time chatting with old friends!
When I tell you RUN don’t walk!!! The food is Amazing! This was my first time going in and i already knew the food was going to be amazing. Everything is so well seasoned and made with love. It felt like I was eating at a family member house. The yams are perfect and the mac and cheese cooked just the way i like it and don’t get me started on the chicken. 10/10 they have a customer for life.
The food speaks for itself . Super friendly service . We had shrimp and fish combo . Love it . The collard greens and Mac and cheese is unreal .
Food was amazing! Especially the Thai chilli shrimp, I was about to eat the shell with how good it was. Great customer service and the food is made fresh!
I only had the mustard greens from here. But let me say that the greens were delicious. No hot sauce needed. I must go back and try the other food on the menu. The owner was very friendly and welcoming.
If you’re looking for delicious halal soul food, this place is an absolute gem! My friends and I were searching for halal options in the area and stumbled upon this local treasure and I’m so glad we did. From the moment we walked in, the service was phenomenal. The staff is incredibly welcoming, and you can feel their passion for the food they make. Everything is homemade, fresh, and bursting with flavor. Every bite was amazing, and you can truly taste the love and care that goes into each dish. This spot might be a hidden gem for now, but it deserves all the recognition. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and give it a try you won’t regret it! (Get the vanilla yams!!)
Ling Whiting and thai shrimp combo, Thai shrimp with fries were both delicious! Fish & shrimp taste fresh. Staff are welcoming and sweet, pleasant atmosphere. 10/10
Seen them on door dash, took a chance cause the pics of the shrimp basket looked great. Also went with the Mac n cheese… let me tell you, I’m a very picky eater and man they did AWESOME. Perfect shrimp, fresh cut fries and kick ass Mac n cheese. Can’t wait to stop in person. Thank you.
I got the fried *buffalo shrimp 🍤 Excellent it’s not to hot has a slightly balanced sweetness to it. If you don’t know if to choose between the Thai and this, the Thai is just sweet but still really good. To me the fries weren’t too great wish they had mashed potatoes instead. Service excellent - no where to seat so grab to go ! Also the peach cheesecake- you’re welcome ;)
The person behind the counter was so friendly and was very communicative about how much time the food was going to take! I ordered the chicken, which was going to take a while, and when I picked up the rest of the order, it was still hot and fresh! They made sure to prepare the other foods close to the pickup time and I appreciate that. The food itself was good and my favorite was the Thai Chili Shrimp! It was so crispy and big. I appreciate the amount of fries given as well. The person behind the counter ran after me outside the restaurant when he realized he forgot to give me ketchup! Overall a 10/10 experience. I would travel all the way down here from Boston to have this experience again.
So delicious, try the fried fish, buffalo shrimp, and mac and cheese. The homemade fruit punch is the best I've ever had. Not a huge selection but it's not necessary because everything is so good. Great service: thorough and helpful. Only a few stools to sit on, it really is a storefront restaurant.
Not your average Soul Food eatery. Each dish has its own unique flavor. The staff and management made us feel like we were at home.
Pepe was great and hospitality. The food was great. Will go again.
The owner at Pepe’s is very nice, friendly, and welcoming, with a great attitude, and you can tell he cares. He’s been in business for over 11 years, and I can see why the community supports him. The plate I tried (fried chicken, mac & cheese, and candied yams) was okay overall. The chicken had a nice crunch, though it wasn’t as juicy as I expected and could use a little more seasoning. The mac & cheese was creamy but needed a bit more flavor to really shine. The candied yams were the highlight, sweet and well-balanced. Ratings: Taste – 8/10 Portion Size – 9/10 Preparation – 9/10 Value – 8/10 ($22 for a generous portion) Fried Chicken – 7.5/10 Mac & Cheese – 7.5/10 Candied Yams – 8/10 Overall – 8/10: A hearty meal with large portions and solid preparation. With just a little more seasoning, this could easily go from “good” to “great.”
I ordered from this place because it had good ratings and serves halal food (which the person working there assured me of as well). Pretty much all of the food was delicious, especially the NY Buffalo Shrimp. I’ve never had shrimp like that before and I wasn’t disappointed at all. The Mac and cheese as well as the yams were also great, but the platters were just alright. The person working behind the counter was really friendly and I enjoyed interacting with him. I’d definitely like to come back for more.
First of all, superb food overall. I was traveling through New Rochelle and saw this Halal place on google maps. I stepped and was greeted by the dude at the counter, very pleasant man and very cool soul music. My from Brooklyn, like an hour to 1 1/2 away from home, so I ordered more food so that I could really taste and rate this place. I ordered the Moroccan Style Lamb Gyro (5/5), the NY Style Buffalo Shrimp (3/5) with fries (4/5) along with Tarter Sauce and Coleslaw. I finished this with their famous Mac n Cheese (3/5) and their signature Fruit Punch (5/5). Overall, the Lamb Gyro and fruit punch were amazing. The Mac n cheese and the Shrimp seemed like they were from a high end restaurant, but personally I like my Mac and cheese more cheesy and the shrimp sauce was too sweet. This place still gets a 4/5, very nice. No bathroom though :)
The food was not good. I ordered fried fish with basamati rice and salad. The fish was not seasoned at all and some pieces were a little fishy tasting. The rice had onions tomatoes and cabbage I think in it. I’m a picky eater but also didn’t expect that. And the salad was in the plate with hot food getting soggy and there was dressing on it already. I was never asked if I wanted dressing or what type. Waste of my money. The older black gentleman was very polite and was coming to my car to notify me my food was ready. That was the best part of the meal.
I decided to stop by after reading the reviews & it’s close to where I work. The guys were nice & the service was fast. The issue was the flavor. Was quite disappointing being that I was hyped up prior to reading the reviews . I ordered the lamb & chicken platter . The whole dish tasted the same. Really bland. What stood out was the chicken & the white sauce. But that rice was not it.. I guzzled a bunch of juice to get that bland taste outta my mouth. Halal truck food is much more flavorful imo. Overall food was cheap & came up to $5 & was quick service. But that specific meal wasnt tasty imo. I may go back to order their bbq shrimp which seems to be popular.
I dont even know where to begin with the horrible food. What i do know is that im never eating there again!!....The fish was tastless and the fries were soggy. The moroccan lamb platter was the worst! It looked like someone ate half the plate and gave it to us because the little piece of meat was dry and burnt...and for 8$???. Ive had better lamb for 5$ from a halal truck. I was also annoyed that there were no simple condiments included like salt/pepper packets and ketchup. Like who gives fries without ketchup? Who?Overall very disappointed!
Omg no lie, this is the worst soul food I have ever ordered in my entire life. The Mac and cheese I spit out as quick as it entered my mouth. The shrimp and the fish was dry and bland. My order total $70, hubby and I wasn’t able to eat the food because it tasted that bad, yes it was that bad. Waste of money, smh, never again. You’ve been warned!!!!
Okay so this was my first time here me and my husband, and I must say the macaroni and cheese was to mushy for me (overcooked) we both got the chicken over rice but mine was mixed. The salad was already wilted and the sauce was not so tasty, the mustard greens had no flavor. Definitely was not a fan and will not go back.
Today is September 5, 2025 first time I went to this restaurant I ordered mac & cheese fried chicken and yams. The mac & cheese was disgusting. It was bland and it was white mushy bullshit. The fried chicken was disgusting. The yams I’ll give it from one to 10 I’ll give it a three I would never go back to this restaurant. If these people cannot cook why open up a restaurant let’s not forget my meal was $25 for little three pieces of chicken, a small portion of mac & cheese and a small portion of yams that are three year-old wouldn’t even get full off of this is horrible
