Uncle Gussy's

Hands down the best food truck in NYC. Great price, delicious food, AMAZING specials. I go there every day of the week. Home cooked meals served fast!

Great size portions. Very fresh all of the time. Healthy options as well. The servers are always upbeat and friendly as well.

Haven't been here in years - randomly walked by today and shockingly no line so I had to take advantage. Chicken over rice w the works (beans, onions, salad, hot and tzatziki sauces. Better than I remembered. $14 so a little steep but very tasty.

I used to lunch from this place from time to time before the pandemic. Always thought they were good. Just went back to them a few days ago and surprised to the new (to me) look. They serve their plates in these (cool to me) boxes now. Nice! Their rice was tasty, the pork souvlaki nice and tender, it all went real well with the salad and the tsaziki. The only thing I found sub par was the pita that comes with the meal (which surprised me! These boys are from Astoria!) Lastly, I will add that it was a good amount of food for the $ (I got their "Hercules" plate) Oh! and, yes! there were a few french fires in there too! I felt it was a nice touch. I recall loving their fries (I believe they used to add oregano to them).

Decent food and price is alright for what it is in midtown.

Not the best cart you can get around the area but they work quick so even if the lines seem a little long, it'll go down quick.

I personally like the other gyro cart on 53rd more than this one but to each their own. This spot will always be popular during lunchtime.

Nothing too amazing or stands out in regards to their food.

Still as delicious as I remember! When I was still working in the Financial District, I'd have Uncle Gussy's Chicken Breast platter at least once every 2 weeks. Pre-pandemic times, that's right. That's how I've gotten to know Nicko and his team over social media because I was a regular.

Fast forward to the other week. My husband was near their Park Avenue truck and the thought of having their chicken platters and souvlakis were just too good so I ordered online, messaged Nicko and he said, "I got you, guys." Hubby comes home and I see that Nicko threw in some extra fries with feta cheese! What a treat! Thanks again for that!

Anyway, safe to say we tremendously enjoyed that meal. I absolutely love their tzatziki and hot sauces too. Heck even their simple side salad that's in every platter is divine. And the pita. And the rice. And that everything tastes fresh and delicious. I somehow can't understand how they could make a simple chicken breast to be delicious and more importantly, not dried out, which tends to be the case mostly but not here. Absolutely cannot wait for our next Uncle Gussy's meal! Thanks again to Nicko and the team! :)

Great Greek food truck! The line gets long, but the service is quick and friendly. I always the the Greek salad with gyro meat as my go to lunch. The meat is flavorful and plentiful! This is definitely a great value for the money.

Definitely lives up to the hype.

Came here a few weeks ago and waited on about a 20 minute wait. Looked extremely long but they move fast and are like machines.

I had 2nd thoughts about waiting but really wanted to try it.

Boy was i happy i stayed on line. Absolutely incredible- i got the hercules plate it was full of gyro crispy fries and salad.

Their hot sauce is amazing. The fries are amazing - the "greek salad" could definitely use some more love and dressing. But still 5 stars for me.

Just go and wait on line you will not be disappointed.

Ordered the lamb/gyro fries box w the works
But they gave me rice instead

The pros of this store was its speed and presentation

The downside being that the meat and sauce were extremely mid

Its probably as good as it gets in the immediate area for lunch halal trucks but its not impressive (and is $2 more than the other top halal choices like halal guys/ adels)

Pass on this if you got the other two aforementioned options but otherwise this will generally do the trick

Friendly staff and big portions here - I got "The Hercules" combo (lamb + chicken) with the works (white sauce + hot sauce + grilled onions). I came by for a late lunch, so there was no line and food was quick and hot. Definitely one of my favorite halal carts.

Been a patron of this truck since I started working in the area. The pandemic has changed my work status to fully remote so I haven't been able to get my fix.
Just recently I found myself in the area and walked over to Uncle Gussy's spot. I ordered 2 chicken and rice platters with tzatiki and hot sauce and brought it home to my family.
The rice and chicken were cooked perfectly and survived the trip home. I'm happy to see them still thriving in the heart of midtown east and the food is still fantastic!
Highly recommend. Big portions and delicious food for a reasonable price.
