My family had reserved the restaurant for lunch for a private event. It was nice that we had the whole restaurant to ourselves. Also, we got special attention from the owner/chef. The owner cooked the food and brought the dishes directly to our table from the kitchen. The chef arranged the entire lunch menu. We got to taste some of the popular and famous dishes. Many of the food were my personal favorite. Start with some fried chicken nuggets and braised pork bellies. Then there was the squid. I loved the way the squids cooked with the green bell peppers. Next was one of my personal favorites: twice-cooked pork. I loved it because I remember eating it growing up. The Mapo Tofu was excellent. It's got nice flavors with a little kick of spicy. I can't recall all the dishes because the food kept coming from the kitchen, and I barely had time to take pictures of them. It was a lovely meal. Everything tasted great. The service was excellent. And the dishes go great with a glass of icy cold beer. If you are in the area, you got to come in and give it a try.

Hidden inside a bar looking place, walk in and the restaurant is in the back. Ordered a few things to try it out and wasn't that impressed with the food. Got the spicy mung bean jello salad 川北涼粉, you'll be eating the spicy peppers when you eat it... kinda annoying, ended up throwing most of it out. twice cooked pork 四川回鍋肉 was really oily but decent flavor and eggplant in garlic sauce 魚香茄子 was also very greasy and drowning in oil, a bit sweeter in flavor. Overall this felt like a regular Chinese take out spot and the food was average for me. Maybe the fish is better since I saw people ordering that.

This is your usual neighborhood Chinese restaurant. The food is nothing to write home about but the service and speed of which you get your food is quite quick and everything is hot and fresh. All in all this is a great restaurant for my neighborhood that shouldn’t be looked over

Typical casual Chinese restaurant. They are not on delivery apps so I either go in to pick up or I call them and pay cash upon delivery. The staff are always very welcoming and nice and the food is affordable and the delivery is fast. I order from here a lot. We get a variety of foods and it’s all be really tasty and cooked well. I noticed they don’t have their menu online so I am attaching it here.

Excellent Chinese food. We had 3 vegetarian dishes. The tofu was incredibly soft, and the eggplant was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. I will come here again for food.

I will say this because I am in the restaurant business myself: people will ALWAYS come back if the food is GREAT. Not okay. Not good. But GREAT. With that in mind, I will say that the food is OKAY at best. I have been here twice already and ordered TO GO both times. When I got home and tried out the dish there was ZERO TASTE. The shrimp in the dish was VERY TASTY but the rest of the dish had no flavor at all. Nothing. I guess I could have added my own salt at home. On the plus side the dish had a lot of FRESH VEGETABLES which is a GREAT THING. The portions are HUGE, so it’s clear that they want to make the guest happy. The other issue is that the first time I was there I asked for the dish to be make extra spicy but it was NOT spicy at all and had ZERO FLAVOR. Instead the chef threw in a lot of dried red Chinese peppers, which somehow did NOT make the dish spicy. So I realized what the chef did. He made the dish not caring if it was spicy or not and THEN threw in the dried red Chinese peppers at the last minute. No problem. The SECOND TIME I asked for the same dish and again asked for it to be made extra spicy. And AGAIN the same dish had NO FLAVOR, ZERO TASTE. But this time the chef didn’t put any dried red Chinese peppers at all!!! He just completely forgot. He FORGOT OR DID NOT care to make it spicy AND also did not put any dried red Chinese peppers in the dish. When I looked at the ticket stapled to the paper bag it CLEARLY said at the bottom to make the dish spicy. So the problem at this restaurant is the chef, judging from all the bad reviews I have read. The girls at the counter who take the order are SUPER FRIENDLY and the food comes out VERY FAST. Fatima Halal needs to do something about the interior decor of the restaurant. YES, it IS a VERY CLEAN restaurant, and even though the place is small they do have a few good tables to sit at. The inside of the place looks so so. They have a good reputation from before. But reputation alone is not good enough to keep a business successful. The MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR is the food. I honestly think that salt seems to be missing from their dishes. To the restaurant’s credit they DID give me a small HOT CHILI OIL to go, and when I got home I realized that THIS was the missing flavor in my dish. They should prepare some of their hot and spicy dishes WITH CHILI OIL WHEN THEY ARE MAKING THE DISH and not have to give it on the side!!!! I really hope that the owner reads the reviews because the complaints about NO FLAVOR AND NO TASTE really is true. The place has a big heater and it’s warm and cosy inside during the winter. I honestly don’t care about the prices and that it’s only cash. That’s fine. They DO give plenty of food and the food comes out very fast. Also the vegetables are fresh and the dishes have plenty of them. I think the bigger problem here is the chef. I have a feeling that he just throws the ingredients in the cooking pan and hopes for the best. This restaurant CAN be a good place to eat GREAT food, but the OWNER has to do something about it. The OWNER has to take one day off and with the help of three other employees all of them should taste EACH AND EVERY DISH in the kitchen to see what the issues are and what needs to be fixed. I know of a friend who owns one of the most successful restaurants in the city and she closed the restaurant for one day and tasted all the dishes with three employees and they fixed all the issues. They have been in business for over forty five years. Fatima Hallal is not a bad place. But it’s not a great place either. The problem is that there are many other choices that are NOT Chinese with the same prices that offer far better food. As far as being a Chinese restaurant it is not better than most similar restaurants. But if you were to go to Flushing near Main Street and Roosevelt then the choice of Chinese restaurants with tastier and much more delicious food within the same price category increases. Fatima Halal needs to do just ONE THING. Improve the flavor and taste of the food.

My con workers always order from here as we work close by I ordered today the Lunch Special which was Chicken and Broccoli and fried rice and egg drop soup The order came within 15 minutes of us placing the order by phone The food came very hot which was great The soup hot as well Very good food !

Ordered pork fried rice with chicken wings. Wings feel very small/ skimpy compared to most mom & pop Chinese food spots (at least the ones I'm used to). They are tasty, though. For how small the wings are, I feel like they should give 5, rather than the standard 4. The girl who took my order was very nice as well.

This place almost killed me. I ordered chicken wings and pork fried rice last Wednesday and was sick throughout the holiday weekend into the following week. I have never experienced any type of illness like this before! Never again.

Do not try to order authentic Chinese food here. They will just put together whatever they want and sell it to you because they think that we (Americans) are uneducated and can’t tell the difference. Tried to order Mala chicken and got some bland nonsense in a dark sauce. See my photos. It is like night and day.

I don’t know the reviews are so low but I order chicken wings and fried rice with a shrimp roll and it’s delicious. The wings are meaty and the shrimp roll is tasty . I find this place very affordable as well and they deliver 😁

I ordered barbecue ribs and I got 4 little pieces, almost no meet, only bones , more the half plate rice! they changed 12.00 plus delivery only for this plate. Don’t order combos, they scam you! I spend 52 dollars, with pepper steak large no enough meat, only onion and pepper! Shame! On them! Never again
