The food here at this location is very good. The Whiting is perfect. You can taste the seasoning. It’s not too hard. It is just right and the chicken is good as well. I would recommend this place to others.

Thanks so much for your chicken. Its delicious. You'll note the small things here simple brown chairs white tables but plenty to choose from on the menu. Its a taste of halal meets kfc. Home is where the heart is and its delightful to eat here at extremely late hours. Food. Companionship from the local hood. There are chickens in the closet. Aint nothing like chicken here eat it up and enjoy the finer tastings in life. And be happy. Be tasteful and eat loudly. I wasnt high enough to pass out but the track playing told me it should be.

A solid Halal food place.I was surprised to see large selection of Items available here. Food was fresh and tasty. Chicken spicy burger was perfectly spicy and very tasty. Fries were crisp and really tasty. This place is very neat and clean and super friendly guys run this place. Highly recommended place for fresh and tasty food.

Probably the best halal in the area. We've ordered from here a lot, and each time it's fresh and delicious, perfectly spiced. Space is clean, staff is nice. Delivery is always quick and friendly. Great spot!

This is a clean Halal establishment, that has a variety of great tasting dishes to choose from. Their prices are good. For anyone that is out late, and does not want your typical fast food, they are open until 2am. The staff here is friendly, personable and accommodating.

Eat there pretty often. Whiting fish with fries was good. My man really enjoyed it. The wings are good, best when fresh. I’ve asked them to make fresh chicken and they had no issues. (If ordering over a certain amount)Chicken over rice is good too. I wouldn’t order sides (mash potatoes/macaroni) or even the cakes/ sweets. they look like they don’t move much.

We got the lamb over rice and the chicken and lamb over rice. The lamb and rice was good but the chicken was little dry.

Ok, this is a very interesting place... Flavors are there, prices are RIDICULOUSLY low for the quality of food, most of the Mediterranean options of the menu are very, very good. If I gave it 4 stars, is because it does not need to have such a big variety of American options, it could be cleaner, may be one more person attending is what they need, and I absolutely understand the "budget" thing, but with such a great quality I will suggest a little bit of "retrofit" to resolve some conditions that may not take too much effort to resolve... Way to go Team KENNEDY!!!

The service was great. I ordered a chicken gyro with extr yogurt sauce. The put ketchup or some kind of red sauce on it. It was terrible so I threw it away. NY husband's lamb gyro was fine. However I recommend cleaning the waiting area up.

I felt very disappointed by the quality of the food. My family ordered fried chicken pieces, cheesesteak, gyro, chicken sandwich and cheese burger, with sides of fries. The chicken fried was the salty small wings you find at other local chicken places. They were very fried and the outside was super crispy and hard. I couldn’t eat much because of how salty the chicken was. I was excited to try the cheesesteak but oh man, minimal meat, tasted no cheese, had some bits of onions and green peppers and saw some mayo on the side. I had Saads Philly cheese steak from Philadelphia, so I am very very disappointed as there is no comparison. Saads hand down was the best, hence they are so famous. Back to my current review. Fries were like any other, and the gyro was normal. Nothing special. The customer service person was kind and respectful. Overall, this was a quit bite for the family and sadly we did not enjoy it much at all.

I really hate bashing a place, but i wouldn’t recommend this place at all. Prices were very fair, and i guess priced accordingly. I ordered a 12 piece chicken with sides. The chicken wasn’t even warm, and the mashed potatoes were actually sour. The gravy that came with one of them was ok at best, the other was actually bad as in expired and completely sour. The chicken didn’t have any flavor and was as dry as can be. Maybe it was a bad day, but i won’t find out a second time after serving sour food.

I love the lamb gyros, but they have old hardened chicken sitting there and then serving it to the customers. I even asked how long the chicken was sitting before I ordered. He said 10 minutes. No way! It had to be more than an hour. I again threw my money away. I need to start cooking at home again.

My husband spent over $30 and THE FRIED CHICKEN ,SMELLS LIKE FISH & TASTES LIKE FISH! WASTED MONEY & TIME!

I had high hopes for this place, but it was a big letdown. The fried chicken wasn't crispy – more like soggy and greasy, as if it had been sitting around for hours. The seasoning was bland, and the chicken itself was barely warm, which was disappointing given that it’s supposed to be their specialty. The sides didn’t fare much better. The mashed potatoes tasted instant, the coleslaw was watery, and the fries were cold and limp. It seemed like they were trying to save money on ingredients at every turn. Service was slow and indifferent, and the staff seemed more interested in chatting among themselves than actually helping customers. On top of everything, the place felt unclean – sticky tables, crumbs on the floor, and a general lack of care. For the price, I expected way better quality and service. I won’t be coming back here again, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone looking for good fried chicken.

Full of red dyes. Not at all what I will call shawarma. They put so much sauce, the bread was soggy, it was impossible to hold. All of it went to the trash unfortunately!
