Maryams Mart
Binghamton · $
“Open till 4AM. The chicken and lamb shawarma over rice is the foundation — fresh, flavorful, made to order. Skip the fries if delivered; the counter execution is sharper.”

Yams Halal
Binghamton · $
“Halal is the claim, and I'm not hearing doubts. But the quality is a rolling dice — one visit you get smelled-good perfection, the next you're throwing out rancid lamb. Order from the lamb and chicken, order confidently, then pray the kitchen cooperates.”

Taste of Bengal
Endicott · $
“Halal is certified here, the owner takes care when he's watching, and the garlic naan and butter chicken are reasons to trust him. But the biryani has disappointed multiple people, and service depends on whether Mr. Mustafa is in the room. Eat when he's there.”
