They really are the kings. Omar plate: the meat is good quality, highly flavored, heaping portions and 2 free falafels for $9. You can't beat it. Goodnight after lunch tho

Best chicken shawarma in NYC! Go earlier than 12pm to avoid long lines . You get a free falafel for standing in line . $6 goes a long way on this cart. Only weekdays Monday to Friday 11:30am to 2:30pm.

The midtown outpost of the city 's best chicken and rice cart, with excellent falafel and shawarma to boot. Parks in Astoria on 30th Avenue in the evening.

This is by far the best falafel in the city . They'll even give you one as you wait in line ! Absolutely delish (and now with rice )!

David Solimano

Falafel , shawarma , get it spicy . Remember to tip. Prices lower than the restaurant in Astoria too.

After trying falafel King I never had halal guys which seems to be more trendy . This is waaaay better and falafel is the best.

Falafel was amazing and the shawarma was delicious!!! Perfect street food for walking through Manhattan !

Jason Brew

I think for me it was just too much food. But the guys at the truck are nice and hand out their very good falafel when the line gets long

They feed you a falafel while you wait! Very fresh and good.

Chicken and rice is classic, but opt for the Omar Platter for something filling.

Rumana Siddiky

Excellent falafel and chicken too! Worth the long wait !

Harsh Mall

If the line gets long, they'll come down the line and serve you falafel . Yum!

Location is convenient

They give generous amounts of raw onions in their platters. If you're not a fan, let them know when you order.

Dave Klein

Wasn't there yesterday or today. Not sure it exists here any more. Worth the trip to astoria though.
