Food was amazing reminded me of NYC bowls/famous chop cheese, but a better version. The owner is a great guy and puts a lot of love into the food. Would recommend to everyone to come try out Michigan’s #1 bowl spot

Awesome NYC style halal chicken over rice. I have been looking for a spot that can bring the same taste as NYC street food and I think I just found it. Great place for a quick bite.

This plate was a straight 10/10. The orange rice was packed with flavor and paired perfectly with the juicy, well-seasoned chicken. The white and red sauces hit just right — creamy, spicy, and balanced. Fresh veggies added a nice crunch, and that pita was soft with a perfect toast on the outside. The portion was generous, and every bite was loaded. If you’re looking for something that actually fills you up and tastes amazing, this is it. Definitely coming back again.

Man probably hands down one of the BEST NYC rice bowls I ate with fresh beef & chicken! You can taste the freshness in ALL ingredients that my brother Moe cooks & grills right in front of you. The red rice is daily made & fresh & definitely reminds me the actual NYC gyro carts you get ! Overall delicious & must try (& im sure he has many other delicious items on menu too!) MashaAllah. All the best & nothing but success InshaAllah! P.S red sauce is homeade, spicy & KEY to making the mixed rice taste even better.. yum

I had the Motown combo bowl and it really surprised me! Not a lot of places can cook chicken correctly, they’re either bland or dry. But this place cooked it perfectly chicken was juicy and packed with flavor, so was the gyro and rice as well. 10/10 would comeback again

Just moved to the area and was struggling to find a good shawarma rice plate. Omg the lamb rice!!!! How is it so tender?? Prices were cheaper than other places too, $15 here where at boostan it’s over $20.

One of the best food trucks I had in hamtramck wallah. Platters were packed with flavor and the owner was very nice and genuinely put love into the food. Generous portions for the price and amazing quality. If you are near Hamtramck this truck is a go to. Also you have to try the cookies n cream parfait.
