Between Friends Food Truck

Amazing Shawarma!! Delicious food. I can't leave Jersey City without stopping here.

I am still salivating at the thought of the food I had from here last night. It’s definitely thee best food truck I’ve encountered. And what blows my mind, is that they make it look so effortless. Like, it didn’t even seem like they TRIED, but the food itself said otherwise. It said experience, it said tradition, history, and so much more.So, I was with my friend last night in Jersey City at an art gallery/outside gathering. It was actually a lot of fun. There were drinks, a DJ, and a good amount of people. After a while, my friend and I were hungry and ready to eat. We see across the street, the Between Friends food truck, as well as an ice cream truck. We head over and look at the menu. I was honestly drawn to everything I saw on the menu lol. It could’ve just been hunger, or perhaps everything just looked that good. So I ended up ordering the shawarma chicken over rice, and my friend ordered the fried chicken wings with fries. We figured we’d share, so we’d get to taste everything. The shawarma chicken over rice came out first. My friend tasted it first, and had an episode lol, insinuating that it was the business! I looked at her like, “is it really that good, girl?” She told me to taste it. I tasted it, and was blown away! I couldn’t believe the amount of flavor that was in this chicken and rice. It was just a beautiful blend of flavors that took my taste buds on a journey. A journey I didn’t want to end. I could eat buckets of this chicken and rice. Next were the fried chicken wings and fries. These wings were perfectly crisp and also well-seasoned. You could even see the seasoning on it, which always just makes me so happy lol. They were hot, juicy and succulent, omg.My friend and I suddenly became silent, because we were GOING IN on this food! It was gone in less than 10min, which only left me wanting more. So I THEN ordered a steak gyro smh. Girl, I took one bite of that steak and felt disrespected in the best way. I told my friend to try it. She took a bite, and instantly gave the cooks a thumb up. I just can’t believe the flavors that they manage to develop. It is NOT unnoticed. The staff were also incredibly sweet. The food takes no time at all to make. We got to eat right there at the truck on a ledge they provide for customers. It was a wonderful experience, and I WILL find them again, wherever they are, to give them more of my money! This was Halal at its FINEST!

If you live in Bayonne. This will be closet location to buy halal food. The chicken over rice taste very unique than other halal trucks. The portion is decent size. The price is not too expensive. The owner is friendly too. Unfortunately, he don't open on the weekends. Only during weekdays from 11am to 830pm. Highly recommended to try the Shawarma version!

Great Food! Good cheese steaks and love the shish kebab over rice. Best thing about the place is that the food is always fresh.
