Halal Restaurants near Citrus Heights, CA

“Chicken plate was really good. Husband said it's the best rice he's ever had. My beef and lamb gyro was amazing!! Baklava was TOP NOTCH! We look forward to eating here many times again.“

“My wife and I decided to give this restaurant a try instead of going to our usual eatery. To say that we were positively surprised by the quality of food (taste and the way it was cooked) and the vibrant atmosphere of this Uzbek restaurant is to say nothing. My wife is into Middle-Eastern food as she lived there for 30 years and she knows all about it. At the end of our meal in Caravan, she said that it was the best restaurant so far for that kind of food. I may not be that specific, but I definitely liked it a lot. We are already planning to come back to this place again and to bring our friends here, too. The only drawback was that the place is so much popular that sometimes you would need to wait for quite a while. So, if you are planning to go there, try to chose not crowded times (if you can)“

“I signed the waiver and went with Angry level

🔥 Carolina Reaper

Scoville Heat Units (SHU) Notes
Carolina Reaper 1,641,183 – 2,200,000+ SHU

Was told only 1 or 2 persons try it out each month
Guess my name entered into their record books.
It’s the hottest burger I’ve ever had. Had the fountain coke coming in to cool me down.
But in the end accomplished the “been there done that.”
Very clean ambience and professionally run. Must try them out to become one of the regulars.“

“My wife and I basically had the place to ourselves when we visited. The person working their made our food fresh and it was delicious, comparable to places like Halal Guys. The person working there was even playing the piano in the restaurant, he asked us if it was okay if he played. We will definitely back again.“

“Stopped here on a Saturday afternoon because where we were going was too crowded and we were very pleasantly surprised! Great gyros, hummus, tzatziki and chili. Pita is ver very y yeah good. Can’t wait to try the amazing looking Dubai chocolate and their baklava too.!“

“Halal Grill Express (حلال Kabob+Shashlik) is hands-down one of the best spots in Folsom for anyone craving authentic, high-quality Mediterranean and West Asian flavors. Located right near City Hall, it’s a bright, modern, and welcoming space that clearly prioritizes quality and hospitality.
What Makes it Stand Out:

The Signature Kabobs: You can’t go wrong with the Chicken Kabob Plate. The meat is incredibly tender and perfectly charred, served on a bed of fluffy, seasoned rice that hits the spot every time.

The Hummus & Sides: The hummus here is buttery smooth and tastes amazingly fresh. Even the salad is a highlight—vibrant, crisp, and clearly prepared with care rather than as an afterthought.

Unique Favorites: If you want something a bit different, the Afghani Wrap (stuffed with fries and seasoned meat) and the Loaded Fries with garlic sauce are absolute game-changers.

Hospitality: A huge part of the experience is the owner, Masi. He is genuinely one of the nicest people you'll meet, making everyone feel like a regular from their very first visit.

Whether you’re dining in to enjoy the clean, neon-lit atmosphere or ordering takeout (which is always packed with impressive care), this place never misses. It’s fresh, it’s flavorful, and it’s a must-visit in the area!“

“I cannot express enough how much I adore Falafel Fusion in Rancho Cordova--it's truly the gem of Mediterranean cuisine in the Sacramento area! From the moment you step in, the inviting atmosphere and the friendly staff make you feel right at home. Inayat, the manager, is an absolute star! His passion for delivering an exceptional dining experience shines through, making each visit memorable. Conveniently located next to the I-50 exit with ample parking, Falafel Fusion is easily accessible, adding to its charm. Now, let's talk about the falafel platter--an absolute masterpiece! The combination of pita, falafels, basmati rice, house salad, and that secret house sauce is nothing short of divine. The pita was incredibly soft, the falafels crispy with a delightful cilantro flavor. Each bite was a burst of taste explosions, and the falafels literally melted in my mouth. The spice levels were spot-on, providing a perfect balance of flavors. The hummus, a heavenly side, complemented the falafels and basmati rice flawlessly. Speaking of the rice, it was not just any rice--it was a flavorful journey on its own. The house salad, fresh and vibrant, added a delightful crunch to the meal. Now, let's talk about that secret house sauce--it's an absolute game-changer! I've never tasted anything so good. It elevates the entire dining experience to a whole new level. Kudos to the brilliant minds behind this secret concoction! And the cleanliness! The spotless bathrooms reflect the commitment to maintaining a hygienic environment. Plus, the prices are incredibly reasonable for the quality and quantity of the food you receive. In conclusion, Falafel Fusion is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic and mouthwatering Mediterranean cuisine. Support this amazing local business; you won't be disappointed! Thank you, Falafel Fusion, for consistently delivering an unforgettable dining experience.“

“The lamb in qabili palaw was tender and could be cut with fork. The curry was spicy but not over the top. All dishes well seasoned and attractively arranged even though takeout. The long grain rice and bread were also very tasty.“

“The owner is a friend of mine and having been to Afghanistan I can assure that the food is authentic, delicious and the atmosphere very hospitable.“

“I never been there, but it any place that makes gyros with lamb is awesome“

“What a great restaurant, clean, fast friendly and a great value. Got the chicken dinner plate, came with rice, pita, spanokopita, salad, and green beans sautéed green beans. Everything was seasoned perfectly. Definitely will be eating here often, what a gem!“

“I went with my nephews and sister in-laws. The place was clean, the cashier was friendly and super helpful and knowledable about the spice levels. I was scared and went with one medium and one mild. The medium wasn't bad at the all. I may try a medium and hot next time. I believe my nephews got super hot and the cashier told us that was around ghost pepper spice 😬 their mouths were burning 🥵 I wont go too spicy because then you cant enjoy your food and taste it. The little sliders are filling and comes with fries and sauce. It's delicious. And dont forget to order a drink! They do NOT come with the meals you order.... and their ice is AMAZING, small little crunchy ice.“

“I stumbled upon this amazing Afghan street food truck randomly, and it was a delightful surprise. I tried their Afghan burger, and it was absolutely delicious. The blend of spices and herbs was on point, creating a unique and satisfying flavor experience. The service was friendly, the prices were reasonable, and the overall experience was fantastic. If you're up for a culinary adventure, definitely give this food truck a try - you won't be disappointed!“

“I seriously cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. We were greated by a very friendly man who offered suggestions on the menu. He pleasantly asked if we were happy with our food. The food is AMAZING. I got a gyro wrap, my husband got a gyro platter. The portions were huge and absolutely delicious. My husband eats more food then you could imagine and it made him stuffed while not sacrificing quality or flavor. The meat just melted in your mouth and the flavor was out of this world. We got two baklavas and I cannot even explain how good they are.“

“Went to this place on Friday, customer service was excellent and the food was exquisite. Will be going back for sure.“

“Cute little place! Fresh and delicious 🤤“

“I tried the food again today. I get food from there every week. The food is very delicious, and I really like the service too. Please don’t be upset at the person who replies to the reviews — negativity can be found everywhere. I confidently recommend this place to all truck drivers“

“I recently visit Prime Gyro and Grill, and I want to share my experience. The staff, Sayed and Mohammad, are very professional and respectful. They make you feel welcome and valued.

The food is excellent—both the taste and quality are remarkable. I ordered the Philly cheesesteak, and it was wonderful! You can feel the freshness in every bite, and the flavors are truly amazing.

If you are searching for ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️halal restaurant in Sacramento or Placer County, this place is great choice. The prices are fair, considering the high quality of the food. I enjoyed my time there so much that I will definitely return.

I recommend Prime Gyro and Grill to everyone. Give it a try, and you will want to come back again!“

“Quality food & excellent service.“

“delicious pizz fast order“

“Best pizza I've had.. This is for partly because the crust isn't so doughy.

Prices are good. The salad I showed is enough for 4 people and was only $9. Let me warn you though.. They have a few tables do you can eat in, but it's not a traditional restaurant where you're waited on.

I will definitely be back“

“My second time here and I ordered the vegan fish online but they were out. I had the curry 'chicken' (lion's mane mushrooms) instead and it was so good! Spicy and very flavorful.“

“The service is always excellent. They are friendly and make it a great place to eat at. And the bonus is, the food is excellent! I get the fried prawns, scallops and cod and fries or fried green beans. Potato salad is great too and their dipping sauces are great. I go there weekly or every other week. I grab Mel a lot so sometimes I go in late and they are open until 11:00. Love this place“

“Freshness and deliciousness is felt in every bite of your food in M’s Halal. Nice and quiet family friendly restaurant! Great place, definitely recommend it.“

“Food is seriously good. Flavorful rice, crispy flavorful falafel. Fluffy pita bread. Good hummus and tkatziki. Person working there is cool. Good selection of canned and fountain sodas.
They have great specials on rice bowls, they're buy 1 get 1, that ends up being a super cheap meal for 2.“

“This is the great place, to find authentic Afghan products as well as some other groceries. Very polite and well trained stuff, great customer service.. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ 👌“

“This is my first semester at Sac State and I was looking for a place to eat on campus since there is really not many great options. Stumbled upon this place and I have to say it totally BLEW me away! Took a bite and it was heaven. The guy even said enjoy and surely that’s just what I did.“

“Food is always great, hot and freshly made. Awesome portion sizes and really friendly and accommodating staff. Their mango lassi is bomb and everything I’ve ordered has been delicious. 100% recommend!“

“Great food , fair price …“

“Even 5 stars don’t do justice to the quality and taste of food here. For the price you pay, the amount of food you get is phenomenal, you can really taste the freshness and the love that goes into making a plate and doing that consistently is amazing. Really recommend if you’re in the area to stop by and grab yourself a mix plate with banana peppers and a little bit of spice.“
