LAWRENCEVILLE, NJ — New York Street food icons, The Halal Guys, are opening a new location in Lawrenceville. "We're putting the finishing touches on our new Lawrenceville location. Can't wait to see you all," the owners said in a Facebook post. Unlike New York, patrons won't have to line up outside at a food cart for gyros or falafel – the group is opening a restaurant at 3371 US 1 43B, between Chipotle and Bonefish Grill. The Halal Guys first opened in 1990 at the corner of 53rd and 6th Avenue, New York. The three Egyptian owners first started a hot dog cart but soon pivoted to selling halal food for Muslim taxi drivers in Manhattan. That's where the famous platters of chicken and gyro over rice, falafel sandwiches, and the white and red sauces were born. No date for the opening has been set yet. You can follow them on Facebook.
