New York halal taste — Restaurant in Pittsburgh

It was good. Not really NYC street cart style, but better than other offerings downtown. It comes with fries, definitely a PGH thing. The gyro meat is cubed and likely deep fried. It was ok, but I prefer thinly sliced off the spit. Chicken was very red but flavorful, again, atypical. It looked kind of indian influenced. Rice was some kind of brown basmati which was ok, but not as good as the yellow kind from the cart. It was drenched in garlic sauce, not quite as thick or garlicky as "white sauce" but better than tzatziki. Salad has lots of ingredients instead of just LTO - carrots, pickles, bell pepper, olive, banana pepper, etc. If you were not from NYC you wouldn't know it wasn't like NYC but it's good nonetheless. My portion was very large. Will be eating the same...

Friendly staff and great food. The rice was nice and fluffy, the sauces were on point, and the meats were juicy. One standout is the gyro: I don’t know whether it’s homemade or store bought, but it tasted better than the ones I’ve had from similar restaurants. It was crispier and more flavorful.

I've been in the US for more than a decade. It's hard to find halal restaurants here. Of all the halal restaurants I have been to, this was by far the best of all. The service was fast. They have plenty of food options, and the menu is very affordable. I got a chicken sandwich which was a foot long and some fries all for $6. Portion size was a lot for the money. They got my order ready in a timely fashion. I was hear for work, and I'm gonna visit again...
