Before there were food trucks on every corner of every borough, these guys were the crown jewel of street food. And for many, they still are. Not just any halal guys, these are The (Famous) Halal Guys and they serve the best version of the NYC-staple dish, hands down. By day, you want the southeast corner of 53rd and 6th (or 53rd and 7th, at their newest outpost). By night, the southwest. These corners are important because imitation carts with employees clad in similarly colored shirts have descended upon the area, confusing many a customer.
