Halal Restaurants near Albany, CA

“Wow a Wine- Bar with 1920’s ambience!

A truly amazing discovery of the hidden jewel of boring Solano..

I got their special wine, not from the menu, and it was mind blowing.
They have live music and entertainment on weekends!
Local regulars are amazingly friendly folks, and don’t forget to ask what is chef special on Thursdays. We will be back !“

“Try the newest special the Cajun Tropical Wet Burrito! It’s so yummy and amazing! 😋I highly recommend this restaurant. Also, great customer service and quick service. Great quality with great prices! 😉“

“Good cheap eats. Sort of fun to get your own chai, as much as you want.“

“Great food and if you like hot, they’ve got it!“

“Hands down best Gyro I’ve had since visiting Denmark. The seasoned fries paired with their ranch and smokey barbecue sauces were divine. The atmosphere is very friendly and the dine-in aesthetic was quaint. HIGHLY recommend OakTown Kabobs with my boy Farzad.“

“Sofiya is an absolute gem in San Francisco! The portions are generous, the flavors remarkably rich, and every dish feels thoughtfully crafted — a true taste of Zbaïkistani cuisine at its best. You can tell the food is made with care and genuine passion.

The hospitality was exceptional. Our host was wonderfully kind, welcoming, and attentive, creating such a warm and inviting atmosphere. We were even treated to extra servings and a traditional local drink, which made the experience all the more memorable.

A restaurant that shines for both its outstanding food and heartfelt service. Highly recommended — I’ll absolutely be coming back to Sofiya!“

“10000000/10 caesar chicken wrap. My wife and I shared it and it was enough for the both of us. Prices are steep but worth it. The house made chips are amazingggggg. The people working there are nice as well. I’ll definitely be back. I’ll be dreaming about it until I come back tbh.“

“First time visiting San Francisco and this restaurant. Very busy for a Friday night. Our waiter, Rahil P., was so nice and helpful in picking out food.

Amazing decor and atmosphere. Very well lit.

We ordered the Desi chicken wings, the mixed platter, and fire fries with chicken. The mixed platter included chicken boti, beef boti, tandoori chicken, and lamb chops. Food was amazing. Very flavorful. Kashmiri chai served on Fridays and Saturdays.

I would highly recommend to anyone visiting San Francisco.“

“Great food and good costumer service“

“One of the greatest dining experiences I’ve ever had. Each dish was so incredible because of its seasonal selection of ingredients and exquisite presentation.
The staff were very attentive, and the atmosphere was so colorful that we wish we could stay all night 🙌“

“The food tastes great and at a good price! :)“

“The restaurant itself is not in the best location, and the interior and bathroom isn't the best. But we went in and were welcomed so warmly for dinner when the place wasn't busy. We got the chicken biryani, garlic naan, and chicken tikka masala. The biryani is one of the best I have ever had in the US and the garlic naan was perfect and fluffy but crispy. The chicken tikka masala was creamy, not overcooked, and well seasoned. The best Indian restaurant we went to in East Bay. Would come again.“

“I went in for the weekend special and was blown away by the hospitality—they were incredibly kind and welcoming. The food smelled amazing, and with the very first bites I was instantly reminded of the Halwa Puri from Burns Road I loved as a child. It was a truly nostalgic experience that brought back a cherished childhood memory.“

“Best lamb I’ve had. Kids loved it too!!! Our new spot“

“اكل حلال اسعار في متناول اليد تعامل قمة في الذوق“

“The chicken halal plate from this place is Beyond DELICIOUS! If you like halal food, you won’t be disappointed eating here. It’s pretty good. The block it’s in can be sketchy at times, so practice caution when parking, stay alert and quick purchasing. They also have really good herbs, seasonings and products to purchase.“

“My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time here celebrating his birthday. We were offered a comped glass of champagne since we were celebrating. The place definitely gives swanky steakhouse but with a more modern twist. I HIGHLY recommend the Pavé Tots with caviar, the steak tartare, the potato puree and the truffle bordelais sauce. You really can't go wrong with any steak you choose. If you're a cutlery or a knife nerd, they let you choose your own steak knife from their eclectic collection of hand made knives. They also have a pianist that plays in the lounge nightly which i think adds to the ambiance. Thank you Vault Steakhouse for a wonderful time and meal! Will definitely be back.“

“very yummy halal mexican food, had the fajita, nachos, quesabirria, chicken and birria tacos.
was absolutely delicious, so happy to be able to have delicious food available as halal !! huge shoutout to the restaurant for that. great if you love cheesy things like the family i was with!!

Dietary restrictions: serves all halal meat“

“Got the 8 pieces of dark meat, and it was surprisingly really good with crispy batter and a little spicy kick. It's even good the day after, reheated in the microwave. Definitely coming back here when I have that fried chicken craving.“

“The food was so delicious! I’m from the LA/ Orange County area and I will be making a trip back here when I return to San Francisco!“

“rice pudding, cookies, borek,“

“Yummy, inexpensive Indian food in a no-frills place with good service and no atmosphere. Go here for the food and nothing else. Unless you like sports on TV. I had the chicken with spinach and it was predictably delicious. Self service chilled carafes of water in the fridge. You pay in advance which means no waiting for the check. Vegan options too.“

“The food was truly incredible - I was blown away by the flavors! The halwa puri, nihari, and pani puri were all standout dishes. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a delicious meal.“

“We never come to The City without a trip to Aicha. Wonderful little spot with fabulous service & delicious food. Highly recommend.“

“I highly recommend Mashallah Halal if you are looking for quality Lamb Curry✌🏾“

“The food and service were really good. They served a bug portion of pita bread with the yummiest tahini dip and a tomato dip along with brined olives and picked radish. We then ordered the chicken shawarma plate and fetta with meat. Both of them were very flavourful and tasty. Serving size was pretty big. They also had a great pistachio kunafa brownie!“

“Amazingly great food. This is one of those gems that make a neighborhood. Attached to a gas station, but dont let that fool you, this is one of those truck-driver diaspora bodegas where they sell excellent Halal food for the many muslim drivers who need Halal foos along their route.“

“Exceptional flavors and ingredient combinations. Beautiful atmosphere, great staff, and excellent prices. I am only in San Francisco for 4 days and I might come back a second time because the food was so great. Well worth the visit!!!!!“

“Everything looks just amazing. Truly Mediterranean came highly recommended!“

“A community-friendly market and restaurant. Good prices, good food with generous portions and helpful staff.

Vegetarian options: Serving halal and vegetarian food with well stocked refrigerated/ frozen foods and meat counter.“

“I enjoyed the falafel wrap sandwich. The bread was soft and fresh. The vegetables were fresh and crisp. The falafel was kind of different. Like chickpea French fries. The service was friendly and helpful. The ambiance needs some work. Otherwise, it's a nice new place in my neighborhood!“

“Good size portions of good food at a good price. Great location too. They will see me again many times. Limited menu, but that’s not a bad thing. Perfect before or after a show or event. Plus they are open late.“

“We had a selection of different curries as takeout and all the flavors were amazing. I’d definitely order from Noor again. Only negative was the order took 30 mins longer than the stated time. The original ETA was an hour, which was a bit longer than we wanted, but we went with it anyway, but it ended up being 90 minutes! So I docked a star. Luckily the food was delicious!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5 stars) Pizza Twist is a flavor fusion haven! Amazing Indian-inspired pizzas with vegan, vegetarian, and halal options. The taste is a masterpiece, and the service is exceptional. Highly recommended! 🍕🌶️👌“

“They are DELICIOUS. The marketing/design of the product is great. They even super conscious of the environmentally when it comes to the packaging. Would by again! I got the sauce trio and the sumac. There was a problem in transit with two of the products. Customer service was top notch. Sent replacements right away. Ethical and amazing company.“

“10/5 Stars – Pronto Pizzeria is a Hidden Gem in San Francisco!

Today for lunch, my coworker and I stopped by Pronto Pizzeria, and from the moment we walked in, I could tell we were in for something special. The first thing that stood out was how incredibly clean and well-organized the place was—everything looked fresh, spotless, and inviting. The menu was clear and easy to navigate, and let me just say… the prices are absolutely unbeatable, especially for San Francisco!

I ordered the Philly Cheesesteak, and let me tell you—this wasn’t just a sandwich... it was an experience. The guy in my photos (I wish I got his name!) was genuinely one of the kindest and most helpful people I’ve ever encountered behind a counter. He walked me through the menu with such care and enthusiasm, you could tell he truly cared about the food and the customer experience. Just great energy all around.

When my sandwich was ready, he handed me the first half, packed the rest up neatly, and asked to see my reaction on the first bite. I took that bite and—no joke—I stood up, spun in a circle, and did a little happy dance. That’s how good it was.

Served on perfectly toasted sourdough, this Philly Cheesesteak was melty, spicy, flavorful, and absolutely unforgettable. The cheese pull? Arm-length. The meat was juicy, the spice level was just right (though fair warning: that last bite had some serious heat—so make sure you’re into spicy food if you order it spicy like I did!). Every single ingredient was perfectly portioned, and the balance of flavors was masterfully done. As someone who considers themselves a bit of a sandwich connoisseur, this was easily top 3 best sandwiches I’ve had in my life.

As if that wasn't enough, the same gentleman offered me a complimentary item when I returned—just out of kindness and genuine hospitality. You don’t see that kind of thoughtful customer service every day. It wasn’t just good food—it was a vibe. Clean, kind, flavorful, and professional. What more can you ask for?

They also had a selection of homemade desserts that looked absolutely delicious, but unfortunately I was too full to indulge. Next time, I’ll be saving room!

To sum it up: If I could give this place 10 stars out of 5, I would. I’m officially a regular from this day forward. If you ever come across Pronto Pizzeria, do yourself a favor—go in, treat yourself, and thank me later. You won’t regret it.

Shoutout to the amazing staff for showing genuine respect and hospitality. It’s people like this who remind me how important it is to support each other and lift up our communities. Treat people right, and the world gives it back.“

“The best food I have had in a long time! Great taste and excellent customer service. A must try !“

“Best food in town. If you love Indian food then you should go and try their authentic Indian food. I am pretty much sure that you won’t be disappointed. I give them 5 out of 5.“

“Great pizza, clean dining and conveniently located, I have been a long time customer and I am still satisfied and keep going back

Parking: Next to O'Reilly's Auto Parts. It is a pretty big lot so generally there is ample parking .“

“Extremely delicious!! 🤎🙌🏾🙏🏾“

“I got Karahi Gosht and it was authentic and flavorful. Serving quantity was decent as well. I live in the South Bay and most places over there don't get this dish right. 5* from me, for the Karahi Gosht and Naan. Service understandably took some time because they make it fresh and piping hot. And I went there in between performances of standup comedy at Cobb's next door.“

“One of the best kababs I have ever tasted was here. Must go if you like kababs. Their nun rutis were also very good. We stopped by during our short visit in San Francisco. Definitely would go there more if I were local. I did not try other foods than kabab but they all looked and smelled Delicious in the other customers’ table“

“Cheap, simple and filling. Way cheaper than oasis grill. A lamb/beef shawarma is standard and the meat tastes good, priced about 12 bucks. (oasis is around 21 bucks) Good serving size too. The lamb/beef is halal thankfully, heads up the chicken is not halal. Overall I like this since it's convenient, quick, saving. Staff is extremely friendly. Go to in the neighborhood. Will be visiting more often.“

“I had the Chicken Tikka Masala and Aloo Naan. It was very good I recommend this restaurant.“

“I intend to be forthright with you regarding this restaurant. It is a pleasant place, with excellent prices, respectful staff, and a distinct taste. I do not mean my own personal taste, but rather the approach of the chief. , They are indeed simple people, and I would not hesitate to return if I have the opportunity. However, if I return to that area, I would definitely consider this restaurant.

Note: if I didnt see the lamb shank on the menu I would have never ended up trying the place :)“

“great food & atmosphere! 5 stars!!“

“Such a great experience eating at this restaurant. The service was top notch and the pizza was to die for.“

“Can’t believe it took me so long to try this place!
I had the brisket and dino ribs, with slaw salad and potato salad on the side.
First of all, I would never in my life order potato salad—but this potato salad is so good I could eat it as a meal! (In fact, I actually had it for breakfast the next morning.)
The slaw salad was fresh and zesty. I loved the dressing, the peanuts, and of course the pineapple.
The brisket melts in your mouth, and the dino ribs were packed with flavor. Honestly, the meat was absolute perfection.
We got a burger to go (very kind lady at the counter!)
The seating is casual, which really matches the kind of food you just want to devour without a second thought.
I’ll definitely be coming back for more - forever!“

“I bought the oyster combo with DoorDash and I absolutely loved the deep fried oysters. The fried breading was very tasty and the oysters tasted like they were cooked just right.

I chose potato salad for the side, I liked it, however, I do not know if they make it fresh.

The combo also comes with a Shasta brand soda, but cola and lemon lime are the only offered flavors.

I definitely want to order from here again.“
