Ok I'm sold, as this was really delicious and value for money.  Queue for an hour starting from 9.30pm on a Wednesday night, and I would say it was absolutely worth it. Once it is your turn to order, it will be fast till you get your food.  Ordered the chicken over yellow rice and was given the white and hot sauce by the side. Brought back to Brooklyn and it was still hot. At $8 for NYC pricing, this is definitely super value for money.  Now to the actual review of the food itself. The chicken was juicy and cooked perfectly. The rice was savoury but not salty. Pairing with lettuce and pita bread was perfect too. Now, on to the sauces itself and it's famous white sauce and hot sauce. Based on my experience, I would recommend to go easy with the sauces. Pour a moderate amount of white sauce and then a little bit of hot sauce, and mixed it well and you will subtly taste the sauce and still be able to taste the rice, chicken etc. Add more if you want, but be careful not too add too much hot sauce as it is numbing spicy and if you overdo it, you will not be able to enjoy the entire dish. Also, don't go overboard with the white sauce as trust me, you really want to taste the chicken and rice properly too, and not let the sauces take over the entire dish. In fact, I think one portion of white and hot sauce each would be enough.

Hands down, they are worth it! They live up to their name, the hype, and most of all...the WAIT! With the amount of people on line all the way to the end of the block, and the contented faces of those eating their platters nearby, they deserve the word 'famous' in their name. We saw posts of them on IG, then saw them featured in YouTube videos, and went to see what all the hype was about. Saw a line with a good mix of college kids, locals and tourists and took that as a good sign. Expect a LONG LINE. We waited for an hour and a half, but its all pretty fast once they take your order and the food comes quick. It's also worth noting that they accept most methods of payment. Delicious, filling, and overall satisfying food! We got the chicken over rice, and the combo over rice, with sauces on the side. We wanted to savour the meat and rice first before dousing it with sauce. Both are equally delicious. It's the best halal cart food we've ever consumed. I was even craving it again the next day. If you plan to try it out, again, expect a line and a long wait, but get rewarded with great food!

The line was enough to tell me it was good as it went all the way down the block. It took about 30 minutes to get to the front, but it went fast after I ordered. I ordered the combo chicken and lamb on spicy rice with 2 falafel balls and extra white sauce. It was so good and so filling. The spicy rice is not overly hot if you like some heat with your food.  The platter also has pita bread and salad. Well worth the wait.

After taking the first bite I realized why there is always a long line for this place. BEST chicken over rice I’ve ever had. Love the spicy rice. The lines may get long but they’re quick with giving out orders. Cash and card both are accepted. Will definitely be back!

Chicken/Lamb over rice is pretty good, waited 2hrs in a line. Their food deserve 4 stars because of quality and freshness. It was definitely worth the first try, but I won’t stand in the line again for 2hours to eat it. They should change their ordering process or should add one more truck next to it to process people faster.

this place had an insane line so we had to check it out! wait was around 30-45 minutes. once we got through and to the front of the line, it was quite hectic. there's no real menu at the front just pictures on the side of the truck so we asked people in the line what they got. so ordering was a little confusing but boy was the food delicious! a very generous portion of meat and a nice side of salad and pita. i would ask for more sauce next time because once the top layer was finished, there wasn't much sauce to go around for the meat sitting underneath. you're getting a great amount of food for $7-8. line may seem intimidating but it goes by fairly quick, food was definitely worth the line up and we can see it lives up to the hype!

My every week late night dinner, currently the best food in the city for me. Don’t even think just go here, it will be worth it. Normally a typical time to place the order or stand in a line takes 30+ minutes. But it definitely is worth it. They work really fast.

This is the best place to get your chicken or lamb over rice plate! The chicken is very soft, tender, and flavorful. I usually like to get only lamb over rice at other places because the chicken is not as soft as the other places. I would come here every time I visit New York. I'm from Houston and haven't found a halal meat over rice plate as good as Adel's Famous! I got the combo chicken and lamb over rice with white sauce and bbq sauce. Love that it's open very late until 4 am. The line can be long but it moves by fairly quick at the same time.

I would give this place 10 stars. During our visit to NYC came to this place twice. Sometimes have to wait on the line but it moves pretty quickly and the wait is totally worth! Loved the falafel wrap and chicken over rice. Good spice level as someone who enjoys spicy food. Prices are good and get a good portion of food. Very filling. Can’t wait to come back!

Some of the best halal cart food I've had. Even tops halal guys in my book. Adel's is delicious, quick, cheap, and large quantity. There isn't much more you could ask for! They open at 6pm and if you want to avoid a surcharge, bring cash. There's gonna be a line, but it moves quick. We stood in line Christmas eve in single digit weather for this and it was well worth it.  We all got the lamb and chicken combo platter. So amazing and the white and red sauce is unreal. You can choose to have spicy rice if you want a kick to it, and I think it's worth trying. Comes with pita and lettuce as well.
