~ Quick Halal bite for the economy ~ Chicken is dried. Lamb is better than chicken but way too salty. Combo platter is cold. It could be much better warm. Generous portion for the price. The place is clean and so bright- that's a good sign. Service is the best part of all and is excellent.
As soon as you walk into the restaurant, staff greets you with a friendly smile, they're very friendly and helped me with the order. Shoutout to my bro Yousuf. When it comes to the food, the portions are very generous and delicious. Would recommend!
I am a healthcare worker at Staten Island. My commute is very long back to Queens and after a long day I knew this was the best halal spot to get a meal but also do my prayer. The employee and/or owner was kind enough to let me use the employee restroom when I need to do my prayer and even muted the music for me. This is a special Shah’s Halal and I pray the person behind the counter and the business itself continues to prosper.
