Halal Restaurants near Corona Del Mar, CA

“i’ve been lucky to eat indian food in the uk, scotland, ireland, america, and canada — and this is THE best curry and naan i’ve ever had. on top of it, the service was incredibly welcoming and kind. please introduce a 6th star just for this place!!“

“Halal spot ; We were on the way to South back home and stop by this restaurant for our light dinner.
I think it’s family owned and the prices are pretty reasonable. The staff were very friendly, and assisted us in ordering. Everything turned out good, they were super nice providing us extra condiments, etc. Be sure to select your spice level wisely cuz we ended up in tears, but we still enjoyed it though.

We hope that we can visit this place again next time we are on the way back from north
** hoping for a new branch near San Clemente soon.. we will be your regular customers“

“The food here is absolutely incredible — every dish is delicious and full of flavor! The staff is very friendly and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. The atmosphere is wonderful, with beautiful decorations that create such a cozy vibe.

But my favorite part is the payment system for large groups: using the QR-code makes it super easy, and everyone can pay for themselves without any stress or splitting the bills. We love coming back here, whether it’s just a small dinner or a big celebration with friends. Highly recommended!“

“The guy who makes the Manti and the Samsa wasn’t there. That made me a little sad but our food came out really fast. It was a very homely atmosphere. The food literally almost caused me to ascend. The food was incredible. I have no complaints.“

“Coffee is really good! The turkish bagel (Simit) is THE best in California!!! We got a turkish breakfast plate, shakshuka, and the cheese omelette and everything was amazing. Great service and the owner is super cute :)
They also have amazing eclairs - a must try!“

“The best place to try Bosnian food! I can’t pick one favorite, from cevapi to pizza to pita , this food taste like homemade. All employees are nice and friendly, but the owner is an amazing human being, so humble and approachable, honest and relatable, love chatting with him every time we visit Cali, which is usually 2-3 times a year and we make sure we eat lunch and dinner at Sofra Urbana every day. See you soon! Can’t wait for the most delicious Bosnian food on the west side of the United States.“

“Great experience eating in there… paratha qeema was delicious, and off-course their Jalapeño Burger is of different level (since i tried it first in their lakewood’s branch) Tried their hookah and experience was great! Just a suggestion, please make it available through out the week 😊, if possible!!!!“

“Some of the best food you will ever have. Great family owned businesses and also great catering. This is our to go place for authentic Egyptian food.“

“The food here is awesome. The vibe is pretty great too. It was a bit empty when we came for a 6:30 dinner, but they were setting up a band for later. Only downside is the road noise, but otherwise a perfect evening. We ordered hummus, fried mushrooms, lamb kebab, and beef combo kebab. Super tasty, and very tender and juicy meats. Definitely will come back!“

“This location was absolute 🔥🔥🔥. On entry greeted with excitement. everythibg was great he understood what I was aiming for and made it happen. His recommendations were perfect. Paul if you read this understand that you closed out an amazing birthday week for my little girl and you made it that much better with your service. I will definitely be back and that cauliflower was beautifully done.“

“Pretty good, but kind of overrated.“

“Arad is an outstanding cashier at Dave’s! Every time I’ve come in, he’s been friendly, professional, and quick at the register. He always greets customers with a genuine smile and makes the checkout process smooth and pleasant. It’s clear he cares about doing a great job and creating a positive experience for everyone. Shoutout to moe and arda for consistently excellent service!“

“I was visiting from Montreal, Canada, and I’m so glad I stopped by Dave's Hot Chicken! The food was absolutely amazing—crispy, flavorful, and the perfect level of spice. What really made my experience special, though, was the outstanding service. The manager, was incredibly welcoming, took the time to suggest the best sauces to pair with my chicken, and made me feel like a valued customer from start to finish. It’s not every day you encounter such genuine hospitality!

Now, whenever anyone is visiting Orange County, I’ll be sure to refer them to this spot. If you're in the area, don't miss out—definitely worth the visit!“

“Great hole-in-the-wall place to get authentic, freshly made Turkish food. The food is not heavy, but nutritionally diverse, and satisfying - it's a great alternative to McDonald's or Costco food after visiting Costco or Costco Gas.“

“I had a great experience at this pizzeria! The portions were generous and everything I tried was really good and delicious. The staff was friendly and always smiling, which made the visit even better. We will gladly come back again.
The French family“

“Excellent food and fast service!“

“This is my go to place 😁“

“This restaurant is absolutely phenomenal. The atmosphere is warm and friendly which is evident from all interactions with every staff member. The food and service are excellent in every sense of the word. The bread and baklava were made fresh! The Turkish Delights were phenomenal. The owner and staff went to great lengths to make us feel comfortable and welcome, explaining the menu items in detail. We are so excited to have come across this gem!!! It is the type of culinary and cultural experience that my husband and I treasure. We will be coming again soon, both with and without friends! We can’t wait to try some of the items on the patio grill. :)“

“My wife and I ordered the Mediterranean Bowls. I ordered the chicken schwarma and she ordered the chicken Kabob. Staff was very friendly and even offered us Turkish Tea to taste when we were done with our food. We're not from the area but would definitely eat here again when we're back in the area.“

“We were looking for a close distance restaurant from the hotel and we did. Staff was excellent , that night there was Judy, Clara, and Henry. All of them especially Judy were very helpful. They all worked very hard and they are worth every amount of money and more.“

“Great service and reasonable prices“

“We had another wonderful dining experience at Charminar! Our server, Goldie, was exceptional his recommendations were spot on, and his warm hospitality truly enhanced our evening.
We always enjoy coming here, and this visit was no exception. Highly recommended!“

“Excellent Indian food“

“Great food! Great service! This is one of the best places for lunch in Irvine!“

“I love the Salmon bowl! I’m attracted to the Kids eat free Mon-Thursday. I like the kids play area. It’s inside or outside. I will be back for many terrific reasons!“

“Great service, fantastic food, friendly atmosphere! Loved everything about the place. Can't wait to come back.“

“YES YES YES YES! A million times YES!

I am Lebanese and this is probably one of the best authentic middle eastern Lebanese places I’ve ever been to!

Flavor was on point, customer service was amazing, food was WOW and the ambience was very nice.

Come here with your eyes closed and don’t worry about a thing. You’re gonna have a great experience!“

“Flavor flavor flavor so bomb. I think everything is made in house. They have like 200 different types of baklava. Hahaha. I think it's 6 or 8 but they also have a rice pudding that's really Good. Come to think of it. I've never been let down on anything I've eaten at this place. I believe it's family owned and operated. I live an hour and a half away every time I'm in the area. This is my go-to spot“

“Best Indian restaurant for delicious Indian food in Orange County.“

“I first ate at The Halal Guys on the street in Manhattan and immediately counted it as one of my go to places to eat. The red sauce adds the right kick to the combo platter, which is almost a two-meal entree. Great portions, great flavors, and worth the fair price.“

“Great service, really premium meat, family friendly, we tried Halal lamb and it was vey delicious, tender and perfectly marinated with great spices.
This place is definitely GoTo when you want to Try Korean BBQ style.
Homemade desserts worth the try“

“Was super excited to eat at Masala Bae. My friend had been hyping the lunch buffet for so long and we would always talk about coming to eat here on a Saturday morning. Well today was finally the day and it really didn’t disappoint.

We showed up pretty much as soon as it opened and only had to wait about five minutes before we could start getting food from the buffet. It was all so delicious! The standouts for me were the paneer and the chili chicken. I felt like these two dishes complemented each other incredibly well. I am not much of a dessert guy but I also tried the different desserts they had and I enjoyed them very much. Especially the custard with the fruits.

The waitstaff were all amazing as well. Super welcoming and friendly, they made us feel right at home. It was nice and cold inside which was also great because of the heat outside. Would love to come back and eat here again.“

“It's a simple menu, but there is a ton of variety with food choices. This has become our go-to lunch place whenever we're in the mood for something healthy. The food is delicious, the prices are very reasonable, and the service is great. We often see the same staff every time we come and they are always attentive, friendly and professional.

SAJJ is especially great if you're vegan or vegetarian as it's way more than just a salad, there's so many options you can choose that you can have something different every time you come. I also like that you get a lentil soup with your meal too. Such a great added bonus.

The portions are generous, and I often get filled up. If you come during the peak lunch rush, expect to wait a little and you may not find a table. But the line moves quickly and there's plenty of public seating around the restaurant as well.

Signing up for the app got us occasional discounts so you may want to check that out, and we always return regularly, but especially when there's a promotion. Enjoy healthy eating!“

“Best chicken and best sauce!“

“Great dinner, our server was excellent! Loved the guitarist.“

“The food is great but the customer service sucks! Please train your employees properly. Don’t hire anti-social people!“

“It would be great if I'm able to purchase NYE 2026 on Dec 31. I have inquired with the manager and he pretty much said I have to purchase either platinum but it would be great if you have set price where the band was playing yesterday. It was my 1st time there and it was great. I really enjoyed it. I just needed party of 2 3 course meal with New Year's party favors on the table with great DJ“

“One of the most sub standard experience! The food had all the same curry base, made from canned ingredients. The staff was unhelpful and did not care at all. The seating is narrow and cheap. The portion size of s horrible. The taste of the food is awe filling because it’s probably microwaved rather than cooked properly. Horrible experience. Stay away! There are better Indian restaurants.“

“Quality meat that’s not frozen. Good ventilation. Prompt service.“
