" Every visit to the Grand Street Skewer Cart is a delight. I particularly love their chicken hearts and scallops for that umami punch. The smoky grill flavor combined with spicy seasoning makes it a wonderful treat. It’s a great spot for quick bites, and I always leave satisfied. Just remember, weekends can get hairy with lines! Definitely cash only, which is slightly annoying for those who don’t carry cash on them, but the food makes up for it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I make it to NYC, this skewer cart is on my list! The food is consistently impressive, filling, and so delicious. The lamb is so good that I could eat it every day! Great prices that make it easy to try everything. My only critique is that network service can be tricky due to the crowd—it can take some time to get your order. Still worth every minute! " (*Curated Review*)

" Stopped by the Grand Street Skewer Cart on a whim and I’m glad I did! The spiced lamb was out of this world! Definitely one of the best skewers I’ve ever had. The owners were hardworking and so polite—made me feel appreciated as a customer. If you’re going late at night, expect a bit of a crowd, but they handle the business admirably fast. I highly recommend this spot for any street food lover! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just wow! I stumbled upon this skewer cart after wandering around Chinatown, and it was an unforgettable experience. The lamb skewers were cooked to perfection with just the right balance of spices. I even tried the bacon-wrapped scallops, which were surprisingly delightful! The owners are such a warm couple, making the experience more enjoyable. I will definitely be coming back to try the rest of the menu. Cash only is a bit of a hassle, but it's worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

Just make sure to bring cash; it’s a small inconvenience for such great food! " (*Curated Review*)

" A delightful surprise! I tried the Grand Street Skewer Cart on a recommendation and was beyond pleased. The woodsy, smoky taste of the grilled meats was something I think every street food lover needs to experience! The prices are fantastic, making it easy to indulge in a few skewers at once. The only minor issue is timing—it can get busy. If you're in the area, do not miss out on this gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" Grand Street Skewer Cart quickly became my favorite spot while in Chinatown. Their skewers are such a great deal, especially being $2 each. I thoroughly enjoyed their scallops and pork skewers! The atmosphere can get a bit chaotic during peak hours, but you quickly forget about it as you savor those incredible flavors. What I love the most is how juicy and fresh everything tastes. I plan to return as soon as I can! " (*Curated Review*)
