Guys, you can say this is the best but if you come to Astoria, take the N or Q straight off to Broadway, that is the absolute best.. You have to come by and compare these two.
Even though they call it Gyro , it's really not. It's a Middle-Eastern dish called Shawarma. I guess when this guy started a couple of decades ago, noone knew WTF Shawarma was so he just called it Gyro in order to create a sense of familiarity in his customers.
I LOVE CHICKEN AND RICE but if there is one word of advice I have for all you 53rd and 6th lovers out there, it's to eat the stuff in moderation. Yes, it is delicious but like any good thing it can get played out if you have too much of it
oh hot damn chicken and rice is frickin amazing. You should post a video of what the line looks like on a saturday night around 2am... I've seen the line get up to 50+ people.
Recently, he upgraded and has a cart on the East side of the street too! Not too many people know it's the same guy, and there are always shorter lines on the east.
i dont know wtf they put in the food but its fuckin additive.this place is the shit.w/o the white sauce on it its not the same & that hot sauce is crazy hot if u OD on it but with the right amount good as hell
lol. **They say white sauce.** I love that stuff, but more than the food, it's like going to the city with friends is awesome. And yeah, dude, I agree.. with the description. Memoriess.
the white sauce thing dont know what it is but prob yogurt sauce I DRench MY CKN AND RICE IN THAT GOOD STUFF its so perfect when ur done with the hookas in steinway and then have a blunt after then hit this stuff up its what i did came home at like 4 in the morning gooooood shit
all of u thought are curios about this "white sauce" do u want to know wht it really is? Its your regular old Ranch. Yes the one u put in ur salads. I've eaten this for a while. My mom could make this at home but not as good. So i was like okay u got the chicken and rice but wht about the white sauce? she pulled out the ranch and its the same. its not some secret saue.
you probably got a discount? or maybe because you go the one in the morning? cause these guys here open at 7:00pm to 5:00am, WoW... I wud work here, lmao jk
this place has really changed, it looks different then it was, now they give little packs of white sauce but itz the best. the long line is loooonnnngggg but it goes really quickly cuz of their service. u should also try the cart about 20 feet from there its in the same area though. i think their food is beastly too.
a friend told me about this place today, she made it sound soo good. i didn't even kno about it and i've been livin in nyc my whole whole life, well only 15 years but my whole life,lol. definately going tomorrow
ha! I was there the other night, for the first time. Very good food. Line is long as usual, even at 3am, but moved pretty fast. I'm craving for it already.
by far the best meal in NYC...I come all the way from Budd Lake, N.J. to eat here!!! That's over an hour away!!!No one compares!!!Allah Khalleekom!!!!Attikum al Afyah!!
been eating for 15 years

The white sauce is plain yogurt mixed with green chilli and coriander paste. Try making it..youll see its the recipe.
