Hamza & Madina Halal Food in other cities:
Food is really good, best halal food Ive tried all my life, it would be a five star if it wasnt that lately food is not consistent with their quality. Before food was good no matter the time of day you went but lately during the night lamb has a different taste and sometimes is overcooked.
Food is delicious. Best chicken and rice we had thus far in Long Island. Lamb is delicious as well.
Location is kind of weird but if you can get past that, you will not be disappointed. Definitely better than Shahs halal food and a must recommended.
They dont give u any meat!!! And when u ask for BBQ sauce they give u hot sauce werid!! Plus a lot of times they over cook the lamb!! They also charge $1 more then there Hicksville store!!! For $7 u get a drink at Hicksville!!!
Amazing totally recommend
Lamb was amazing. I got the chicken, and I had them put hot sauce on it but they put on a bit too much. My fault, I should have asked for them to back off. The hot sauce is tasty, but can be overpowering in the same way that the blazing sauce from Buffalo wild wings can be overpowering. I can tolerate spicy food, but after a certain point it gets to a point where all you taste is sauce and its not a pleasant experience.I didnt knock off and you stars for this, but you know, just be warned
We fuel up at the gas station.. But the food smells great.
We eat here a lot because we work late... always the same two older guys cooking never had an issue. Tonight there was a very young man (boy) cooking and all three of us got food poisoning or salmonella poisoning of some kind. Violent vomiting and extreme stomach cramps. 100% sure it was from cross contaminated salad. The one person in our group who didn’t get the salad was spared the wrath. Just means the kid prepped raw chicken or meat on the same surface as the salad and didn’t properly sanitize or clean between. Thank god we were busy at work and we’re all unable clean our plates or I would most likely be writing this review from the EMERGENCY ROOM. I only had 6 bites (two of salad) and it all came back up in record time. All of us who had the salad became ill. I can’t imagine how severe it would have been if we had eaten more. Needless to say all the leftovers have been trashed. I hope the owners read this and NEVER EVER LET A CHILD COOK IN THEIR ESTABLISHMENT WITHOUT A SUFFOLK CLUNTY FOOD MANAGERS COURSE CERTIFICATE ever again (required to cook and prepare food in Suffolk county). I don’t think this kid was even old enough to legally take the test. He was working and cooking with zero supervision. It shows. ALL BE WARNED!! Do NOT eat here if the kid is cooking unless you wish to spend the rest of your night making sweet love to the porcelain throne. I will not be eating here for quite some time after my harrowing ordeal.... might consider it down the road as long as the adult male or the older gentleman is behind the counter... but then again why risk it.
🙄What a service station.🙏 Service so good the gas is running out gas.🤫🤐👂Watch out the Halal Food is off the grid ever heard that your be lucky to find a place this nice. Inside this Service Station is some food that will knock your socks off and blow your mind🤯. Good friendly customer service.Its truly a blessing 🙌.🤞 you like Halal your travel back here at this location you might even save it on your Google Maps now I know Manhattan has some good Halal.Hamza made me LOL just thinking 🤔 I would ever buy any more Halal Food out there why when I have a 💯 sure facts best I had in NEW YORK hands down just the way I ordered just the way I throught about my food arrived.
Mr.owner tell your employee( short guy) who working night time. That guy charge me , my friends and family extra $5 for extra lettuce . Please don’t do that. Next time I’m not gonna go your store. Your special employee such a greedy person. He make some extra money.
If you buy your meal from the gas station you need to reevaluate life choicesThe little brown guy who sells the halal is rude and spiteful. He said I was late and when I asked him what that was suppose to mean he literally walked away mid conversation. I will avoid this stinky disgusting place now
Tried this place after seeing it online. Never had halal from a gas station location, and honestly never thought I would. But, I was craving a gyro and decided to take a chance. Very happy i did. Food was made right in front of me, and it was delicious. I will be coming back often. Very adorable and they are open all night. I went around midnight on a weekday and it was busy... So this tells you this place is popular. Highly recommend. I cant wait to go again!
Dont let this place fool you. When I saw that it was in a gas station I was a little put off. But Hamza & Marina has a great reputation. I had the chicken and lamb with salad. It was a huge portion. Of course the white sauce was great. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
Worst customer service ever!! I got food from them and right as soon as i reach home, there was a fly sitting right there on my sauce, i called the store and told them all they said was i am a liar and their store is clean, no flies that come in and out. I will take my busy somewhere else.
Superb quality halal food. Love this spot. Shocking it is in the back of a gas station. But dont let that deter you!! Food is fresh & amazing
Dont be afraid of the gas station location. The boys inside keep it clean and the taste is great for a cheap lunch. Try the Kofta with a combo meal or gyro. Quite tasty.
Delicious, inexpensive and fast!I stick with chicken and rice plus the white sauce and one line of red (hot). Its good every single time.I also find the portions are large enough that I can stretch it into a second meal. The chicken and rice re-heats well in the microwave where normally rice will get hard and meat will become rubbery.Ive introduced this dish to a friend and my father both who, in turn, have introduced others.Go and enjoy. Its the best sub-10 dollar meal you will have had in a long time.
Great food at a great price. Id definitely get it again. I got a combo, no salad, extra meat. Container weighed a ton, and it was only $10. Got 2 meals out of it.
Been coming here for the last 2 - 3 years and it been pretty good but for some reason recently the food has been getting worse with quality especially the chicken. Its become hit or miss with what they serve. I like coming here especially during my lunch but Ill have to stop if this continues. Also it would be nice if they actually put some tomatoes and onions in there salad.
The meat is always cooked fresh, the white sauce is heavenly, and you gotta have some of that hot sauce if youre into spice. Otherwise, their BBQ sauce is really nice and not spicy at all. This place is open all the time. Perfect for a late night with friends or family. Definitely check them out. Dont be alarmed. Its in a gas station and definitely a hole in the wall.
Great tasting Lamb, Chicken over long rice! Unfortunately prices have been increased $1 each for platters ($8) and sandwiches ($6). Also if you use any credit card, they charge an extra fee.
Best Halal in New York with the best service station I have ever been visit to shop.Friendly & Safe always respectful to customers ❤
This place is the absolute bomb! Its in a gas station, and youll never believe that food could taste so good coming from a place that looks like this. The food here is just like the Halal food stands in NYC. I think they are short handed though since they only have one cook who also takes orders and cashiers at the same time, and the waiting could be long, but once you get your food......DELICIOUS!! 👍
The store looks 24 hour open in Google but not. I came 30 mins and it wasnt good when I saw the store closed
Great food! got for my kids
I have had the chicken over rice or chicken/lamb over rice about 20 times in past 6 months. I would say that 18 of those times the food was amazing and the other 2 times the meat was a little dry. You absolutely cannot find a better quality meal for $6 or $7, let alone fast food. The portions are large. I will say the lamb is always better in the Hicksville location for some reason. I see them cut up the fillet right there so maybe its fresher. I would probably eat there 5 days a week if I didnt mind getting fat.
I love this place the food is always fresh and delicious. Dont be fooled because its located in a gas station. Fast and friendly service.
Amazing lamb over rice. Great white sauce and the hot sauce is amazing if you love spicy food. Super fresh. Best halal around. Cant get enough of that hot sauce! Friendly staff, quick and at a great price.
I stopped here to get gas and scratch off. The lady behind the register was very nice and helpful. The bathroom was disgusting and needs to be cleaned and locked.
Still crushing it. These guys are the best. All the flavors you love in a combo from the city without having to wait in the cold or rain. Don’t be put off by its location the food is top notch. Just wish they had a place to sit. Keep it up guys.
Found this place randomly when I wanted a quick and not super expensive meal with my bf. Lamb and Chicken combo over rice is our staple now. We go like every week when we’re craving it (which is a lot). It’s such comfort food when you’re having a bad day and it’s my go to whenever I don’t know what I want to eat.
Depending on whos there depends on if your food is fresh and good. hate that since covid they close early. And they never answer the phone.
This is my favorite hala place on long island to date (1/2019) The food has never been disappointing and the service is very friendly. Theyre also a little cheaper than some other places. Theyre 24 hrs which is amazing. I love this place so much, Ive gone 3 times in a week.
We kept driving past this place in the gas station and alway noticed it was busy. One day we decided to stop and it changed our world! So Delicious. We come here at least once a week since then! Keep it up guys your doing fantastic!
So ive lived down the block from this place for God knows how long . Ive recently came across it a couple months ago and im obsessed. Its hard to come buy good halal. I live next to a halal spot and i go out my way for this halal. The meat is always fresh and hot. They give huge portions which is what i love and for around 7$? Cant beat that. I go to this place around 3x a week. Amazing halal. Definitely worth every penny.
Best halal food outside of NYC, it is at a gas station, but it is always well kept and open 24 hours! Love the mix platter one of my favorites the white sauce is great and the hot sauce is actually spicy!
Really open 24hr or so. Walked in 7am on sunday and got chicken over rice. Which was really good. A little spicy but just a hint of it. I dont eat spicy and it still was good. Down side: only chicken over rice till 11am.
Quick and very tasty for a fast bite. Difficult to find as I was looking for a stand alone place and this is literally in the gas station.
You dont have to go to the city to get good chicken and lamb combo. Very flavorful and fresh.. Price is very reasonable. Be careful with the hot sauce. Its 🔥
Lamb over rice was good! Not the best Ive had, but good halal on long island isnt always easy to come by. Price was fair too, guys were nice. Recommended.
This place uses to be good once , but not anymore. they give you lots of rice and very little meat. Quality has also deteriorated. Staff says owner has instructed them to reduce keat quantity.Over all if you want just rice with sauce , you can go there , dont expect any meat
Food is ok if you need diesel place sucks expect to spend at least 45 min to fill up dont go there. I apologize for the mistake I have been going for awhile I thought you and the gas station were one and the same your food is very well prepared and your servers are pleasant and polite.Please accept my sincere apologies for my mistake
If you want chicken and lamb with white sauce, this is the place to go. And the best part is that its open 24 hours! Hard to find at first, its actually inside the gas station mini-mart. Totally worth the trip.
Chicken over rice is very good
Ive been extremely tired of the same takeout in the neighborhood. Pizza places everywhere, Chinese food everywhere and then the usual fast food places. Ive tried a couple of wannabe halal food places around and theyre all terrible getting good review for some reason. I saw that Hamza and Medina opened on Crooked Hill rd in Commack and was surprised. Was it the same ones in Queens that tasted amazing and won awards? I went there today and it was delicious just like the ones in Queens. Highly recommended and theyre open 24 hours!
Awesome place to bring the whole family!!! The boss man was very generous and he managed to get my VERY picky niece to try something new and he gave us samples of stuff beforehand and he even gave us a free order of fries! Alhamdulilah!
Not sure about food but the owners are really good people
I ordered a combination plate of chicken and gyro meat, side kofta , and a side falafel. My falafel came already smashed and broken up. The white sauce kinda taste like ranch dressing . Everything else besides that tasted amazing and I especially liked the kofta. Will definitely be ordering again, just not falafel or white sauce.
Im on my way home from going to Walmart and I happen to see a sign for Halal food in a gas station... My first thought was that seems a little sketchy, but it just so happens this is the best Halal Ive eaten on Long Island. I found out it was Hazma and Madina which has a truck out in Nassau and Ive heard very good things about them. $7 for the perfect amount of chicken, lamb, rice and the side salad. The white sauce wasnt thick, the hot sauce was actually very hot and the green chutney sauce was on point. For once it felt like I was eating Halal from the city. So happy to have found a spot thats good and not that far from my house. Ill definitely be back.
The food is great but no seatings. Food is exceptional considering its a To Go Only halal food. Would have given it 5 stars if it was an half decent eat in place.
Really good and tasty Indian food at a decent price. Not bad for strictly take out and not dine-in.
I’ve been to the place out in NYC, the one in Hicksville and now this one. I have to say it was really good here and better than Hicksville. The hot sauce is less spicy however, so make sure to ask for extra.
I think their food is pretty good. For gas station Halal... lol.... I been there 3 times so for Im sold all 3 times it was good ...and the workers are Cool...
The food is always good. You get a great deal for $6.99. Plenty of rice with loads of meat lamb, chicken, or both. I stop there often.
This place is awesome, food is great and for the price its a steal. Shout out to Ali for always hooking it up!P.S.- red sauce is super hot. Careful.
Quick and Correct all the time. Very Good gyros and they also have Kebabs. My personal favorite is the Lamb gyro, make sure to get the hot sauce on the side.
Best halal gyro cart style fast food in long island. Its only $6 or $7 a plate and they give you so much food.
They have excellent costumer service. We spoke with 4 people on the phone so late at night and expected people to be grumpy, but they were extremely helpful and nice and we cannot wait to go again!! ❤️😂🍕💕👮🏻♀️🥑😎😊☺️💚🐮🤔👌🏼🙃💃🏻👋🏻😁😡💩🤡👺👹👩🏼🦲🧒🏼👧🏼⭐️🍀🐝🥴💍
Great place for a quick bite to eat, had the chicken over rice and kebab over rice both were very good. Will def stop by again. They take credit card and of course cash is king:)
The food is really good here and the service was top notch. I found the service staff to be very friendly and welcoming.
Small and hidden, a gem for fast Hallal, delicious and fresh, and easy access to the highway!
I am glad they opened here in Commack saving trip to Hicksville.this location is better dont have to wait in the cold. Same great hallal street food inexpensive and yummy. Place is much cleaner and has parking
Love the food just exactly spicy enough, white sauce is the best.
Quick, easy, very tasty, and everyone Ive ever encountered here making the food was SO nice! I love this place!
Decent halal falafel. Not kosher to my standards, but I was starving. Nice staff. Will accept CC at convenient store front for restaurant orders.
I can be found here 3-4 times a week Khan is the nicest guy around and he makes a mean platter
Best place ever.. only drawback is they have only 1 employee working there do if you get there with 3 or 4 people ahead of you, youre looking at a 15 minute wait minimum to get your order
Amazing food especially the kebab over rice!! Way better than any other place Ive tried on long Island, except for hamza & madina in hicksville. Both are awesome!!
Its was very delicious back in day now portion become smaller every other day specially cooked hill rd location they dont make it on the grill not a helpful people work there
The food was good but service was a bit slow
Same quality and taste as the stands in Queens. No drink included though. All good though. Definitely going back!
I had the falafel over rice with white sauce and light hot sauce, very delicious and there is space to pull in a tractor trailer.
Never buy food this place it is creepy my friend bought food from this place and chicken smells like cooked one month before I am reporting this place to health department.Stay away from this restaurant.
Its normally good but yesterday I was on the phone and I ordered rice and chicken and the guy gave me mad salad and a little bit of rice. I dont like the server
Almost 5 they just need more halal dishesIs 24 hrs kabob chicken and lamp is all well done but they need to do more dishes and hve some samosas too
This place used to be good up until my last few experiences within the past month. The portion size is half of what it used to be
Diesel Fuel In front of Store
Says 24 hours but isn’t, drove here for no reason.
This place is one of my favorites! Reasonable rates, considerable portions and the staff are always very kind.
Out of all the gas stations I go to, this one has the best halal by far.
I like how its a really small place so you can see them cooking in front of you. He hooks it up. Great job on the lamb over rice.
Awesome food. Very high quality, especially at a gas station.
Dont let the gas station location fool you. This halal spot is awesome you get so much for the price and the guys are nice.
Mixed meat over rice hot sauce white sauce yaheard?
Do not eat at this place. The food taste awful not fresh premade falafel, the sauce smelled rancid. This food is bad around.
This place is so good. The location is convenient and they have excellent food and service. Wish I knew about this spot sooner!
Best halal out there... And out of a gas station. Who would have thought!
Love them and love there food..they are really nice people. And food is always fresh and made to order..
Good food good price...Only bad customer service whrn one of this guys stay on the phone and dont pay attention on the custumers
Best Halal Food on the Island other than the Vendor in Jackson Heights
Food was amazing the white sauce and hot sauce and rice is to die for first time here and was not diappointed
Omg this place just continues to go down hill it was ok when it 1st opened but its not so good anymore the only time i come here is when im forced because its the only thing open late hours...omg and dont go to the bath room i rather go behind a bush.. I think the health department needs to visit this place..ASAP
This makes the halal place on Washington avenue look like Mickey mouse the portions at this place sound very good and tasty food very hot the place on Washington avenue food cold and small amounts not good
Good & frish foods...
The lamb and the falafel are great. The chicken was a little to spicy for my taste. But good also.
Been to two different h&ms and these guys know how to make a dang good meal. Eat there several times weekly now
Excellent food.. Pretty good service... Somewhat busy late night (11pm)
Amazing gyro and middle eastern type food at a great price. The workers there were very friendly!

2021-12-08Honestly such a great find... Located in a gas station of all places. I love these hole in the wall mom and pop restaurants. Great if you want to get fresh food as take out. I really like the chicken and rice. Comes with a side salad. Get the white sauce with spicy sauce on top for added flavor. Its so yummy. Ill be back again.

2022-04-21One of my fathers favorite take out restaurant, this was my first time eating any kind of Pakistani food and I love it, except for the chili (I dont like it) but my bro and father states they love it, theres a white sauce made of something I dont know but it was delicious while mixing it with the lamb meet.
Review №3
2022-07-03Great food! Its inside a gas station...a true hidden gem. Food is fresh. Perfectly perfect. I was skeptical at first but its so worth it!
Review №4
2022-03-06Charged me $15 for extra chicken which he literally only gave me one extra piece. AND THEN HE I REALIZED THERE WAS A PIECE OF PLASTIC . I will never be returning to this place. He was so disrespectful
Review №5
2022-04-25Love this little gas station located right by Suffolk county community college in Brentwood. They always have friendly staff, and the gas prices are never terrible! They have multiple gas pumps so usually dont have to wait, and they have a little store where you can buy multiple things. From food and drinks, to cigarettes, Advil, scratch offs, etc.

2022-08-10It was amazing the first time. Last night we ordered and alll 3 of us have been sick about a hour after we ate your food. I pray its not food poisoning because Im a single mom
Review №7
2022-08-09They have good kabobs and platters and lots of new options like chicken nuggets and wings and chicken burgers and jalapeño poppers and mozzarella sticks.. u will probably also like it like we did.. excellent

2018-10-02This is my 3rd time eating here. It’s a bit of a drive away so I go when I have a real craving. I enjoyed the first and third time more so than the second. I guess the quality could depend on who prepares it that day or how freshly it was prepared. I get the combo of chicken and lamb over rice. It was $7 if you pay cash directly, but if you pay with card you pay at the front register and tax is added.The meats and rice tastes really good and is overall very filling. I like to add white sauce and a little hot sauce. The people who work there are kind and efficient with the orders. I did find a small hair in my meal today, which was unexpected. I took it out and continued eating.Disappointed since this is my go to halal spot but I’ll probably still come back because the food is delicious. I recommend for a quick lunch or gas stop since it is connected to the gas station.

2020-02-12Location is a bit odd and first impressions were not the best, but the food was great. Ordered lamb gyro the first time which was okay but got the lab and chicken over rice which was a lot better.
Review №10
2022-03-29Lamb was so dry it was crunchy and chicken overcooked as well . I ate more of the lettuce then anything else. The only reason its not a 1 star is because all my previous visits have been decent to great.
