Famous Halal

Famous Halal is a decent halal cart. Prices for the rice options are comparable to other competitors at $ 6 a box. There’s a good variety of choices other than the staples. The rice isn’t as fine, and the meat is more chunky. Additional white sauce may be needed for a more satisfying meal.

I’ve only had the chicken wrap here — he’s always very generous with the portions and stuffs the wrap with so much chicken I sometimes have it across two meals. Cash only, obviously, and a great late night option around the area after going out.

My favorite cart in the city! Combo platter is the way to go. Sometimes they have spicy rice too. 2 lines of red sauce if you’re brave!

Came out of the Pony Express and not only did this guy make an amazing lamb gyro but he even went further.
Some drunk guy came up and start cursing the cook out, telling him that a previous meal he made for free sucked; he was obviously trying to get a free meal again. The guy in the truck not only kept his cool but let this guy talk shit and at the same time kept this drunk guy away from us. After the cook took an ear beating for being nice on an previous occasion, he went ahead and gave this drunk guy a free gyro bc the drunk guy was broke and drunk.
Food was bomb and this guy was cool the whole time while I would’ve cursed this drunk dude out.
Worth a try. Get the lamb gyro

Chicken and rice for $ 5? Hell yes! In the neighborhood, there aren’t many options outside of delis, pizza, and thai places. The Famous Halal truck is open until 4am across the BP gas station on the corner of 45^th St at 10^th Ave (the Pony Bar). It’s a thoroughly solid lunch or dinner option (when it’s too far to walk to the Halal Guys at 6^th Ave).
Chicken and rice here is more like a stew, with carrots and onions. Make sure to ask for extra white sauce, as rice can be a little dry. Ask for the hot sauce if you dare…
