Halal Restaurants near Daly City, CA

“I had the pleasure of dining at this Pakistani restaurant, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience. Their meals are absolutely wonderful, with everything made fresh and full of flavor.
The grilled chicken is perfectly cooked, the rice is fragrant and delicious, and the bread is freshly made right in front of you such a unique and delightful touch. It’s evident that cleanliness and quality are priorities here, all at a very affordable price.
I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic, fresh, and delicious food without breaking the bank. I’ll definitely be returning!

“Most Excellent! We went to the Legion of Honor museum, but because their Cafe was closed we had to look around the area - and we are so glad we did! This little place is wonderful! The food was amazing - perhaps the best falafel wrap ever! The young man behind the counter was very friendly and helpful. Whenever we get back to the museum or this neighborhood, we will be having lunch here!

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options are limited to the falafel sandwich/wrap and falafel plate, but they are but excellent!“

“We ordered the fire fries and pani puri shots as appetizers and they were great. I’m personally not a big fan of pani puri but my wife loved them!

For our main dishes we got the chicken tikka masala and the dum biryani. The chicken tikka masala was great but unfortunately I don’t think either of us were super fond of the biryani. Not that it was bad, just not our cup of tea today I guess.

For drinks we had the mango magic and triple threat and both were amazing choices.

We’ve been here before and my favorite item had to be the chicken tikka pizza! We will be coming here again next time we’re in SF!“

“Great food and good costumer service“

“Chef Azalina's restaurant in San Francisco's Tenderloin district offers an exceptional dining experience that goes beyond just food. It's a testament to passion, perseverance, and community engagement.

The cuisine is remarkable, showcasing meticulous attention to detail in both flavor and presentation. Each dish demonstrates craftsmanship, with a harmonious blend of tastes that speaks to the chef's skill. The menu features unique ingredients, including an herb reminiscent of Fruit Loops cereal. I'm not going to write too much about food because I think it's borderline just pointless to describe food in words.

What sets this establishment apart is Chef Azalina's commitment to her craft and community. She maintains close relationships with her suppliers, including fisherwomen from Half Moon Bay, ensuring the highest quality ingredients and supporting local producers. I'm convinced that if there were 1000 more Azalinas in SF, this would be the greatest city on earth.

After my meal, I had the privilege of speaking with Chef Azalina for two hours. She shared fascinating stories about her relationship with food, the inspirations behind each course, and her experience as a restaurant owner in the Tenderloin. Her passion for culinary arts and dedication to her community were obvious.

Chef Azalina also opened up about the challenges of operating in the Tenderloin. Many potential patrons unfairly dismiss her restaurant due to its location, overlooking the exceptional culinary experience it offers. Despite this, she remains committed to her vision and to making a positive impact in the neighborhood. Her presence has contributed to the neighborhood's revitalization, demonstrating how a restaurant can be a force for community improvement.

Azalina offers not just a meal, but an experience that combines culinary excellence with personal passion and community engagement. It's a must-visit for those seeking innovative, thoughtfully prepared cuisine in San Francisco, and a shining example of how food can transcend stereotypes and transform communities.“

“I ordered some samosas today because I had a final and wanted something quick but warm and comforting and the guy was very nice and it didn't take long and when I sat down and took a bite I was filled with so much love at that moment. it was so good. I don't get why more people don't go here it's amazing this place deserves the worldddd. I've eaten here before and it hits every single time I love this place“

“The food here is excellent and the staff are incredibly friendly. The line can be long on weekend mornings as a function of the food being so yummy. So be prepared to wait a little. It’s also halal, which is rare among non-vegetarian breakfast items. So that’s a huge plus.“

“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.“

“Highly recommend! Best tastiest sandwiches in the Bay Area in my opinion. I usually make big orders for work parties. The owner is very friendly and efficient for last minute orders.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarían sándwiches are very tasty.“

“Great tasting authentic Middle Eastern cuisine. Owners from Gaza Strip originally.“

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

“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!“

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

“We had gone for dinner and we loved our food. It makes a lot of difference when the food is good. Their lamb seekh kabab, tandoori chicken, karahi gosht, everything was superb!
Want good food then go to Chaska! You will love it!!!-Papiha Nandy“

“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“

“Great tasting food from the holy land. This would be my second time reviewing this restaurant a 5- star. Nothing comes closer to my mother’s cooking than this place. They serve some authentic Palestinian dishes, even good mansaf which inshallah hard to find at other places. Definitely the place to go if you’re thinking Palestine. Love the patio expansion and art work on display.“

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

“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.“

“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!!!!!“

“Atlas is a unique place. I’ve stopped by with friends for an event but not really had the full Atlas experience until tonight. I had one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had! The Italian garlic combo! Friendly staff, wine and beer, tonight there was live music on the patio area. Max the owner is a wonderful host who is very active in the San Bruno community. Atlas is bringing good times back to down town San Bruno. Make it one of your first post pandemic stops!“

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

“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.“

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

“Extremely delicious!! 🤎🙌🏾🙏🏾“

“We had a long trip and the hotel where we stayed recommended this place to us.
Without a doubt I also recommend it, excellent pizza, texture of the bread, the flavor and ingredients are delicious, apart from the super nice staff. And we got a good price“

“This was the very first restaurant my girlfriend and I tried as soon as we landed in San Francisco and it did not disappoint whatsoever! The food was so flavorful and the vibe on a Wednesday afternoon was full of ambiance yet very hospitable. The food was fast and well made. The self serve drink station had sealed pitchers of water you can take to your table which is awesome because personally i don’t like depending on a server to refill my water. I ordered the chicken tikka masala and the lamb biryani with the garlic naan. The food was very appetizing and full of flavor with a touch of pungency. Highly recommend!“

“If there was a way to give 6 stars, I would award it without reservation to this amazing Afghan restaurant. They recently opened their location in San Francisco at the expense of shutting down the one in Berkeley and I am sure those East Bay denizens are now in extended mourning.

It's a no frills place with amazing food and great service. We had pretty much everything on the menu: the bolani, the spinach, the eggplant, and the triple kebab. Everything was just flat out spectacular, seasoned perfectly and bursting with flavor in each bite. Nothing was greasy or salty, the flavor was from fresh ingredients and expert cooking.

We had leftovers and were walking down Van Ness and a homeless person asked me for the leftovers. Normally I would have said yes but I had to say no because I wanted the food for myself! I did give them some money to get their own food so don't hate me too much.

Check this place out before it gets too popular which, by how brisk business was tonight, means that won't be too long.

“TLDR: huge plate of quality Mediterranean food for under $15 in the FiDi!

I came here ordering takeout and the plates averaged around $13. I got the mixed combo plate and though it didn’t come with rice, it came with beef and chicken, hummus, salad, bread, falafel and dolma which were all great! Service was friendly, food came out quickly and I even got some hot sauce with my dips! Would definitely come back“

“Great place to grab quick and delicious Halal burgers with juicy wings. The portion size of their meals and their French fries are phenomenal. ❤️

Had a small issue with my beef mushroom burger and got it replaced with a new one in 5 minutes. Awesome customer service 👏

Would definitely visit this place again soon.“

“They are friendly and have delicious food.“

“The best taste with less spicy!“

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

“Had an amazing experience at this restaurant! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great, and the service was top. A special thanks to Salih for being so attentive and friendly—your excellent service made our visit even better! Will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!"
Thank you.“

“This restaurant food is much more better than other Pakistani Indian restaurants all around the US. Chicken biryani & seekh kabob was so delicious authentic Pakistani flavor specially the Tea which is so so so good like Pakistani famous Pathan’s tea and we never had an experience before this in US. The best thing is they make in front of us so the quality of the food is so fresh and yummy like your own kitchen.“

“Great and delicious food awsome service and great quantinty and quality with desi taste its a place to had a food blast....... ...“

“Perfect spot for a quick lunch. I first tried the food from Sajj in San Mateo. It was a "regular" lunch place for many at my office. Now that I occasionally work in SF, I was please to find a Sajj just a block away. Love that the food is fresh and bonus that it is full of flavor. I take advantage of ordering ahead and picking up on my schedule.“

“Yan can cook! Enjoy the delicious halal sandwiches, falafel and salad offerings. Ask for the "Secret Sauce"- your tastebuds will be amazed!! ENJOY!“

“Great food lovely location“

“Great food service, outdoor dinning is great!!!“

“You go to this kind of places for the love of food.... and it does delivers. Its a very sketchy street, not to be alone in the dark. But the food is incredible (had goat curry with garlic naan). Bathroom? dont ask. Higine? Dont know... but flavor... superb“

“Great service, good food, very unique decorating,feel like in Morocco 🇲🇦“

“The food is amazing you should try their flafle. It’s amazing and staff super nice fellas“

“We ordered the house combo and it was very tasty. It came with 4 meats(chicken,beef,gyro ,koftedes). All of the meat was juicy,tender and well seasoned. The rice. was fluffy ans delicious. The mixed green salad had tomatoes amd cucumber and was topped with a pickled cabbage and dressed to perfection. I only had a small bite of the pita because rhe meal was so filling. I can't wait to try the baklava we ordered. What a great find. I will definitely be going back to this restaurant.“

“I recently visited California with my friends and had a privilege to eat at this restaurant. Loved the food and service. I recommend this restaurant to everyone that’s looking to eat a good Nepali or Indian food. The dumplings were awesome“

“LOVE the COMBO Platters with the FRIES and the FALAFELS 😋😋😋“

“Gyrrito is awesome tasty bizniss!!!!“

“I'm removing a star because certain employees serve the falafel pita with only three pieces rather than the usual four, which seems stingy and is unsatisfying.

SAJJ stands out as an excellent option for authentic Mediterranean fare. The servings are generous, and the prices are fair, particularly in light of the price increases at other venues. The inclusion of lentil soup with every order is a pleasant surprise, solidifying this as my favourite lunch spot.“

“This is my second visit in this location. It is relatively quiet every time I do come in. There are more online orders than people ordering here.
The workers are super nice! They really gave me the amount I wanted & they did not hesitate to do so.

On my first visit, I ordered a shawafel bowl which means two proteins which are shawarma & falafel. It was pretty abundant which means I did not finish my bowl. I also decided to have mint lemonade as my drink. I like the mint lemonade, it’s a good balance between the two.

Today’s visit was consisted of just steak shawarma rice bowl. I normally get half rice and half salad but this time, I got half salad & half couscous. It was a good decision and probably be the combination I do get for now. I also ordered the strawberry lemonade which, for me, was more watered down.

Most of my bowls have garbanzo beans, extra sumac onions, the sumac cauliflower, tzatziki, cucumber tomato mix & tahini sauce! It is my go to! So so so delicious!

I do still have to taste the pomegranate chicken & eggplant ragout!

Overall, I can see myself coming back here & trying different combinations once a week!

PS. They are close tomorrow, July 4th.

Vegetarian options: Falafel is a huge part of their menu. They also have abundant amount of vegetables to enjoy such as beets, mixed salads, garbanzo beans, pickles & all.

They also have pita chips and pita bread. Anything with hummus as their spread should be okay :) It isn’t a whole lot of option but a vegetarian can definitely eat here & enjoy it as well.“

“The food here is freshly made, meat is halal and food is really delicious. Even the desserts are served fresh. The restaurant is in a location that looks sketchy but the neighbourhood is not bad, just dimly lit and empty after 8pm. Lot of seating area and staff is quick in service. The menu is not very expansive but the food is good! Really recommend the chicken shish taouk plate. We have been here twice and always get that.“
