Sammy's Halal Food, located at 73rd St and Broadway, is a hidden gem when it comes to delicious halal cuisine in New York City. I recently had the pleasure of dining at this establishment, and I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of the food and the overall experience.

From classic favorites like chicken over rice to mouthwatering gyros and falafels, they offer a variety of options to suit different tastes. The menu is extensive and caters to both meat lovers and vegetarians, ensuring that everyone can find something to enjoy.

One of the standout aspects of Sammy's Halal Food is the exceptional taste and freshness of their dishes. The food is prepared with care and attention to detail, resulting in flavors that are truly memorable. Whether it's the perfectly seasoned chicken, the tender and flavorful gyro meat, or the crispy falafels, each bite is a delight for the senses.

Another aspect worth mentioning is the generous portion sizes. Sammy's understands that their customers appreciate a satisfying meal, and they deliver just that. The portions are ample, ensuring that you leave feeling satisfied and well-fed.

In terms of service, the staff at Sammy's Halal Food is friendly, efficient, and always ready to assist. Despite the bustling nature of the location, they manage to maintain a high level of customer service. Whether you're dining in or grabbing a quick bite to go, the staff members are attentive and ensure that your order is taken promptly and accurately.

As for the location itself, being situated at 73rd St and Broadway makes it easily accessible to locals and tourists alike. The vibrant neighborhood adds to the overall experience, as you can enjoy your meal while taking in the energy and diversity of the surrounding area.

Lastly, it's worth noting that Sammy's Halal Food offers great value for the price. The prices are reasonable, considering the portion sizes and the quality of the food. It's an excellent option for those looking for a delicious and affordable meal in the city.

In conclusion, Sammy's Halal Food at 73rd St and Broadway is a fantastic spot for anyone craving flavorful and authentic halal cuisine.

Before you read my review of Sammy, which is what I’ve gave 4 stars to, read this first: the man right across from Sammy has pretty good food and he is pricing his platters at 4.75 with the soda included. I will say that the reason his cart gets less attention is that he is a shy man that can not communicate well. The food is good, however. Now , on to Sammy’s : good food , except it seems that the only difference between him and others is that he uses a lot of black pepper. Lamb was well done and smooth, rice was perfect. It is not however, worth 9$ for a platter without a drink, and a 30 minute wait . His food is good, basically a halal cart that puts more black pepper in the meat. The only reason that he is so popular is that he is tech savvy, and had a Facebook page while Facebook was in its height. The “give me a like on Facebook” sign on his cart probably caught social media attention.. then yelp attention.. then newspaper attention.. he even delivers with Uber eats.. I give it to him, he can network, but the food is nothing like the miracle that the newspaper articles display. It is upper average. So in conclusion, if you are some outgoing type who likes to try food popular in social media because it’s owner is outgoing, you can wait on a long line at Sammy’s. If you are quiet like me, and go for the underdog, give the man next to Sammy, with the red beard, your business. You will not be disappointed. As I’ve said, Sammy is good but not worth the extra...

There are 2 Sammy cart next to each other at this corner so it’s quite confused when I first encounter them. But I followed the image in google and picked what I people took picture about this place. Served us are 2 man, they are very quick, straight forward but maybe not too talkative/energetic. I realised they did put a mind on their work as they give us 2 forks (for 2 persons)- this is a nice little details to know. Good job guys! We called chicken over rice (most of the time we called this safe dishes when we first visit a halal cart) and were offered to choose between Pita or Salad. Choosing pita might be a regret since the box was already filled with rice (little did we know until later). Good: Very big and filling (with rice) box A lot of white sauce and they are rich and creamy The chicken is not bad, nicely seasoned and balanced The serving is quick and clean Price is transparent and clear on the board in the front The place is well known Bad: There are too much rice and very little chicken/meat compares to other halal food cart 9$ is not cheap compare to other food cart around the same area, so you can look around and try the other one The servers look tired, I hope they have enough compensation for their job 😶

= you can give this place a try if you are new to this area but i dont think i will visit it again if it wasn’t for some special dishes that...

I used to come to Sammy’s Halal Food all the time when I was younger and when they first opened. Back then, they had the best chicken over rice in the city, hands down. The flavor was unbeatable, and it was always a satisfying meal. Unfortunately, things have changed over the years. The taste is definitely still there, but the portion sizes have gotten smaller. There's less chicken and more rice, which is really disappointing. It used to be a generous serving that left you full and happy, but now it feels like you're paying more for less. Speaking of prices, the platter now nearly costs $10, which is crazy considering it used to be around $6 and came with a free soda. The free drink is no longer included, which adds to the feeling that you're not getting as much value for your money. The employees don’t seem as friendly or helpful as they used to be either. They rush through your order and seem more focused on getting you out of the line as quickly as possible rather than providing good service. Additionally, trying to find parking in Jackson Heights is a nightmare, especially near this halal cart. Double parking is almost impossible and it’s a hassle to even stop by for a quick bite. The quality of the food has definitely gone down and the experience isn’t what it used to be. It’s disappointing to see one of my favorite spots change for the worse.
