Finally—the Capital Region has the kind of halal spot we’ve been waiting for!!! We’ve been to Naan Kebab in Troy multiple times now with family and every visit has been such a great experience. It’s fast-casual, but the way they plate the food feels like something straight out of a Michelin-style kitchen. Everything comes out beautifully presented on wooden trays, and the flavors never disappoint. Some of our go-to items are the behari kebab (so tender and packed with flavor), the naan kebab roll, the loaded fries, and the chicken tikka masala. And we keep coming back to see what new dishes they’ve added—there’s always something creative on the menu. And don’t miss the chai served in terracotta cups—it’s such a special detail that adds to the whole experience. The food is consistently delicious, portions are generous, and it’s all halal, which we really appreciate.
The atmosphere is clean, bright, and always welcoming. The owner is incredibly kind and friendly—he’s greeted us warmly even when we’ve walked in close to closing time, which really speaks to the hospitality here.
Naan Kebab is a unique spot in Troy. There’s really nothing like it in Albany, and honestly, it’s the kind of place that makes you feel like you don’t need to drive all the way to New Jersey for good halal food. We’re so glad it’s here—this place was truly needed in the...
Read moreTried almost all the halal desi food places in Albany . This is my favorite by far ! With an emphasis on comfort food, this truly was comfort food !!! Trying this place for 1st time from left to right got the chicken tikka broccoli quesadilla , behari quesadilla , behari wrap , behari kebab over rice loaded chicken tikka masala fries and chicken tikka kebab over rice . Had chosen mild for all because we weren't certain on spice levels trying this place for 1st time. As we do have some dietary restrictions for my parents especially on salt content! For us it was perfect had the right kick for our fam who can't eat the normal spicy desi food lol due to dietary restrictions. I will try with another heat level next time for myself as I tried the behari kebab wrap it was tasty the chicken was nice and juicy and wrap had a balance of chicken and veggies I added the tamarind sause and chutney and it was perfect!! Also tried the loaded fries they were sooo good great to share for 4-5 ppl !!!! Had no complaints from the parents i see that as a win! The naans were soft and not burnt or overtly thick perfect size for the wraps and quesadillas! Overall great exp...
Read moreI recently tried the Chicken Tikka Fries at Naan Kabob, and all I can say is wow. This dish is an absolute game-changer. The fries were perfectly crisp, golden on the outside and fluffy on the inside the kind you crave even on their own. But what truly sets this apart is the chicken tikka on top: tender, juicy, and marinated to perfection with just the right balance of spice and smokiness.
The dish was generously loaded with vibrant sauces, adding a creamy, tangy kick that tied everything together. It’s rich, satisfying, and hits every flavor note you could ask for — spicy, savory, and slightly tangy, with a subtle char from the grilled chicken.
If you’re into fusion comfort food or just looking for something unique and incredibly satisfying, this is a must-try. It’s the kind of plate that makes you pause between bites just to appreciate how good it is. Definitely coming back...
