Soho Halal Guy (Food Cart)

Unclaimed

a mainstay of the food cart scene downtown is the SoHo Halal Guy—this cart serves up a variety of sandwiches, meat + rice platter, and other eats. brightly lit tiny cart is located on Broadway and Houston St—serving food to area workers, residents, and tourists from day to late night. the food is made with care, but doesn’t take tons of time if you’re in a rush. only ordered meat + rice platters here over the years and have always been satisfied with the ample servings. solid spot for Middle Eastern styled meat over rice to-go. ordered the chicken over rice is well-seasoned. the rice is flavorful. typically i get both the white sauce & hot sauce on top. the chicken over rice is $7 + tip staff is quick and efficient. sometimes service is gruff. overall, if you are looking for lunch or dinner to go and that can be made quickly then this food cart will meet your expectations.

$7 platter is crazy given other carts in the area are charging $10. Also, the gentleman behind the grill is so friendly, patient, and sweet. The platter tasted amazing. Although though the rice was slightly overcooked, the lamb was very tender and well cooked.

wow.. i am speechless… the solo halal guy is truly #1.
