I come here after a long day at work or dance practice. Even if I’m hungry at 3 am haha but this food never misses and always tastes so good. Perfect for a college student hangout
Got the buffalo chicken wrap very good. Owner was super nice and accommodating. They are halal friendly so that’s why they don’t have pork bacon or salami. 10/10.
Get it. You only live once, don’t forget the brownie
Great food, good service, and great prices. Not much more needs to be said, you got tons of unique subs to choose from and they are all loaded!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️☝️☝️☝️Fat Le grand 52 really freaking good sandwich blue cheese jalapenos mozzarella sticks turkey bacon and buffalo chicken man I ain't never had a sandwich combo that good in my life. Am a hungry NJIT student and I only spend MAX $10 a day on food. Took that sandwich back to my dorm and absolutely devoured. Will be back for more. Thank you.
This place is awesome and a god send at 1am when I have munchies. It’s super filling and I always end up saving half a sandwich for the next day. The cakes (I’ve gotten all flavors) are also heavy, but I recommend the all chocolate one the best. The fried Oreos are good too. Everything slaps here, I recommend if you need comfort fat food.
A pleasant and delicious experience here at R U Hungry! What seems to be an American style restaurant with special sandwiches and sides that are sure to satisfy your taste buds. I had a traditional 6 piece wing with a fat Romano and it was out of this world. A really great spot here in the heart of Newark, NJ!
This is the food truck on University Avenue in Gainesville, Florida! I know they are originally from Jersey! I had the Fat Darrell french fries, mozzarella sticks, chicken fingers, and marinara sauce! Holy Sh?? it was delicious! If you’re in the gainesville area downtown definitely check them out! Their menu is huge and even have breakfast!!
As a B-Star Scholar, I hold everything to high standards—and RU Hungry absolutely delivers. Their Greek Chicken Wrap is perfection: tender, flavorful chicken, fresh veggies, and sauce that ties it all together. Fast, friendly, and downright delicious. Scholar-approved!
This food truck on University Avenue in Gainesville, Florida was an amazing find. I learned they originally came from Jersey. I ordered the Fat Darrell fries along with mozzarella sticks, chicken fingers, and marinara sauce , and everything was insanely delicious. If you're in the Gainesville downtown area, you definitely need to check them out. Their menu is huge and they even serve breakfast. A full five-star experience.
