Halal Restaurants near Los Altos, CA

“I tried The Good Salad for the first time and OMG it was absolutely delicious! I tried the Pesto Ceezar and the dressing on it is insanely good. They also give a decent amount of food. The food is really good quality and I'm so happy I found my new salad spot!!!“

“This is a superb Mediterranean restaurant in Palo Alto. The food, service, and the ambience are all very nice. For appetizers, we ordered the eggplant which was incredibly flavorful, although a bit on the heavy side. For my main dish I ordered house combo plate, which came with a combination of chicken kebab, beef kebab, lamb and beef gyros, served with rice and a salad. Surprisingly, the chicken kebab were the best ones -- just amazing flavors, although I pretty much enjoyed everything. Very polite and courteous staff -- a definite place to return to.“

“Staffs are just lovely and the ambience is pleasant with light sounds of Nepali music in the background. The food hits all the right spots and often comes with complimentary sides! + ? for having outdoor sitting as I can’t travel without my pet.Can’t recommend enough to family, friends and colleagues!Vegetarian options: 90% of the menu is Veg!Dietary restrictions: There is vegan and halal options available!Parking: Parking is always availableKid-friendliness: So many happy kids!“

“I came here last summer and it was quite an interesting experience. We ordered and then sat outside.The paratha roll was great all around -- tender and flavorful spicy chicken in a buttery roll. I'd definitely get this again.The sizzling chicken dish had good flavor but the chicken was not as tender as I would've liked.The palak paneer was pretty meh. Not creamy and just spinachy.The garlic naan and mango lassi were good. Overall I had a good time here and would definitely get the paratha roll again.“

“I have been to this place only a handful of times. Each time the food quality and service never ceases to amaze me. The food is spectacularly delicious. The service is quick. Don' t let that deter you in thinking the food quality must lack. On the contrary, they use fresh ingredients and the fact that they are so busy they food turn over is great. you know you are getting fresh cooked food. Hands down the best pakistani/indian restaurant in the bay area. I recommend the halwa puri thali on the weekends and the spinach gosht on the weekdays with garlic naan.“

“Amazing food! Ordered pani puri and Afghani soya chaap. The pani puri has three waters and the spicy water was the best. Careful, if your spice tolerance is low, coz this was Indian spicy. The Afghani chaap was yummy and exactly how we get in India. Super yummy food, keep it up!Vegetarian options: Soya chaap is really yummy and a great vegetarian option!“

“I've noticed more salad places popping up in the area and decided to check out this spot to switch up our usual trip to Mendocino Farms. Note that this is a to-go place for pick up only. No indoor seating. We ordered the samurai steak salad and subbed out the cucumbers for the croutons. The girl working was patient with us, and also threw in the sweet heat dressing for us to try! Customer service was amazing, if not the best I've received in a while (sadly). I loved how many options there were, and the salad was good, but I doubt I'll be going out of my way to come here again.“

“Lipsmackingly yummy, down to earth and minimal fuss executed perfectly!This was a vegetarian heaven in a somewhat meat-heavy area for restaurant options at superbly reasonable fare. The entire dish and all aspects screamed unique and exciting flavors which worked together really well and was a plentiful portion which left me with zero complaints. The falafel was also grilled perfectly, crispy yet light and fluffy left me drooling for more, the salad and grilled veggies were seasoned with some awesome spiced, all topped with crunchy and peppery baked pita chips.I can't wait to return and cannot recommend the Veggie Shawarma with Grilled Veggies and Grilled Falafel enough!“

“Went to Arya Steakhouse for Eid with my family, and it was really nice experience! They were accommodating, especially with our stroller, we were able to be seated outside. The lamb shank I tried was delicious, and so were the rice, garlic fries, and mashed potatoes. My wife loved the chicken kebab. Our server Michael was very nice, always making sure we had enough water, and food arrived at reasonable time. It's a good spot for Eid, all halal and very tasty. I was so full, I joked about needing help to get home. Definitely recommend it.“

“Chicken is crispy, well seasoned, and juicy. Fries are also well seasoned & v tasty. employees are super nice. quickly became & continues to be one of my fave lunch spotsVegetarian options: there's a vegetarian chickpea+potato pattyParking: right behind the restaurant“

“This place deserve few Michelin stars ?The steak was amazing. Kudos to the chef.Don't forget to order lamb shank. It's great.Parking is paid off street and may struggle to find one. It's right in the Redwood City downtown. Ambience is good. Not a lot of seating so do call and reserve a table. Everything is made in-house. Bloody amazing taste. Definitely recommend for Fine dining.“

“The best Nepali / Indian restaurant. For Indian s living in Los Gatos, I’m glad we have got such an amazing restaurant to satisfy the Indian taste buds without having to take a long drive to Sunnyvale or Santa Clara. They serve the (hands down) the best crispy Gobj Munchurian. Service is good II k and presentation is nice.“

“Food here was excellent. The only reason it is 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the fact that there is no indoor space or seating. But still worth it. I believe the other locations might have indoor seating, but I've never been and don't know.“

“We ordered the Hand-pulled Laghman which was very good! Noodles were fresh, veggies and meat were tender, and the sauce was very flavorful.As an appetizer, we ordered the Gosh Naan, which was a pleasant surprise. There was less meat in it than expected, but the meat was very juicy.In terms of service, it was a little bit slower than some other places.However, definitely still recommend stopping by, food was delicious!“

“I had the chicken masala with rice and it came with a potato and I believe Greek salad? Something like that it was an entree at lunch and it was outstanding. I've driven by this place a million times and never stopped and my car was getting repaired across the street and I finally made it inside and was not disappointed. The gentleman that runs the place is very very nice. The food was enough to fill me up which you don't see often sometimes these days. I would recommend it absolutely.“

“What a vibe—I love eating outdoors under the umbrellas, and I always feel at home here when I meet Alia and the rest of the staff. They truly make it feel like you’re part of the family, and the food reflects a high-quality home cooking feel as well. I come here for the most affordable yet high quality food on the entire of Castro Street, and I often wonder how places like Oren’s and Hummus Kitchen stay in business, when this place tastes so much more authentic and feels like a small-town cafe rather than a corporate chain. I can’t wait to keep trying all the great vegetarian and vegan items on the menu, and I’m happy to see that the veg-GF menu is constantly updating :)“

“The food is great in flavor and is not salty like other places. The fried chicken sandwich and the fried fish sandwich is delicious. I go here at least 2-3 times a month for lunch and they never let me down! Service is greater than any chain fast food that is out there. Ambience is very casual and family friendly.“

“Excellent experience with Via Mia! We ordered delivery for 6 family-sized pizzas for a student event, and each one was a hit -- the flavoring was great, and our students loved the variety of halal options! We had barely any pizza leftover. Also had great customer service experience; they were very patient with the large order and delivery radius, and the delivery person themselves was very kind in offering to help carry the large order to the venue (even though parking was difficult). Overall great service and food -- will definitely be recommending to others and ordering from here again for future events.“

“We absolutely love this place, it has by far the best hummus around.We ordered the classic hummus and tzatziki. They were both incredible.We opted to try their spanakopita, which in my opinion wasn't as good as others I've had. They come 2 to an order so that was a pleasant surprise. I would stick to the dips next time.“

“Yummy food here! We came to this place while visiting Amato's. Our daughter doesn't like cheese stake sandwiches but loves pizza. This place has a variety of pizzas and other goodies. The place looks clean and the staff is friendly. There's also plenty of parking as there is a parking lot. Price is reasonable for what you get. The food is delicious! You'll be coming back here to try some of their other pizza mash ups. They have several different types of pizzas. You'll be wanting to try more than one. I would recommend this place! It's delicious!“

“Interesting paki/Indian food. I think they added a twist to some things with the burgers and the wraps. The kebab burger patty had some interesting spices. The dahi puri was good but I wish I didn't take it to go as it gets soggy quickly.Really cool concept tho and the good was tasty so I def recommend“

“This place is a great find. Burgers are tasty, hot and taste fresh. Service is fine, I don't expect much from quick-bite spots like this other than fresh, hot food and very basic service: quick order turn around and friendly vibes. Dining area is spacious, definitely set up for quick bites. I kept muttering to myself, "this is so good" - so there you have it lol 4.5/5 Suggestion: get a trash bin with a bigger hole, it's quite small and hard to get everything through the current one.“

“Authentic taste with great experience.We ordered Mysore masala dosa , podi idli and Madras dosa. Crispy tasty and real podi chutney.Although sambhar is not spicy at all and it has more sweet taste. Sambhar didn't had drumsticks and masala as it is supposed to be authentically.Chutneys are definitely tasty.Also like their buttermilk specially the fresh fragrance and taste of curry leaves.We had take out yesterday and uttapam is great too.Even samosa were crunchy and imli chutney is damn tasty.“

“Great chicken sandwiches. Tried the medium and hot spice levels. For me, the medium is tasty, but a little like, “where’s the ‘hot’ in Dave’s Hot Chicken?” The hot is like, “oh, there it is.” They’re both good. Perfect for me would be something right in between. For now, I’ll switch back and forth depending on sweaty I feel like getting.Definitely recommend.“

“We came to SAJJ with a small group of coworkers, and it was fast, friendly, and tasty. I had a shawafel rice bowl (shawarma and falafel) and all of the toppings I had them put on were great. I also liked the mint lemonade! I'd be happy to come back for a quick meal some time.“

“Had the roasted Lamb, as well as chicken and beef kabobs, and all of it was wonderful.The lamb was as tender as I have had anywhere in the bay area and Came in a great portion for the price of the dish.The chicken and beef were delicious and had just the right amount of seasoning remaining to flavor the rice.If you have not, definitely give this place a try if you're in the area.Dietary restrictions: Food served is Halal“

“Super tasty food. The steak and the pomegranate chicken are really good. The portions are pretty good size and there are many toppings to choose from.I wish the employees could smile and be a little nicer. That is what this place needs to be great.Vegetarian options: FalafelCauliflowerHummus“

“Bay Area do need such authentic Indian food. What truly set this restaurant apart was its authenticity; the chefs have managed to capture the essence of traditional Maharashtrian cuisine without compromising on taste. The use of locally sourced ingredients added a layer of freshness that elevated the dish to new heights.Overall, my experience here was nothing short of exceptional. From the warm hospitality to the authentic flavors and perfect balance of spice and oil, this establishment has set a new standard for Maharashtrian cuisine. Whether you're a seasoned foodie or simply seeking a taste of authenticity, I wholeheartedly recommend a visit to SURMAI.“

“I rarely give a five star ratingCause I always think there's room for improvement but my wife and I have eaten here about 3 times getting the chicken plate combo and everything is excellent. The chicken, rice,salad w/dressing and saucesWe can't wait to try other things there.“

“We went here for dinner on a Thursday. There were 4 people in front of us in line to order. But there was enough seating for all of us. The only problem was - tables. They were not cleaned after people let them.The food was delicious! No two minds about this. In some aspects, even better than Zareens. We ordered their Lamb chops, Grilled fish, Signature Chicken Tikka, Signature Seekh Kabob and Garlic Naan. Seekh Kabob and the grilled fish was just okay. But the Signature Chicken Tikka and Lamb chops were divine! To wash all the food down, we also ordered Cane Sugar juice. It was pressed fresh in front of us.I will definitely be back for more!“

“I recently dined at Hella, a Mediterranean gem, and was thoroughly impressed! The combo plate I ordered was delicious, offering a variety of flavors that were both authentic and perfectly seasoned. My sister enjoyed a tasty chicken gyro, which was juicy and flavorful. The highlight of our visit was the exceptional customer service, particularly from the manager who surprised us with complimentary rice pudding. It was a delightful treat that perfectly ended our meal. I highly recommend Hella for anyone looking to enjoy quality Mediterranean cuisine and outstanding service. A definite five-star experience!“

“The best falafel wrap I’ve ever eaten!! The seasoning was on point, the sauce was delicious and the wrap was cooked to perfection. My son loved the the burger too! My dad really enjoyed the Philly cheesesteak! Great service and good prices! We will be back.“

“Visiting San Jose for a quick trip and stumbled upon this place and I am so happy I did. The regular or chilly momo, chicken or cauliflower doesn’t matter they were all delicious.Now keep in mind these were not Nepali Momo they were with a twist of gravy and I truly enjoyed that. Spice level was perfect and service was excellent.Highly recommend the place, I will be back on my next trip.“

“I don't have pictures of food as I was very hungry I went to Union ave location Place is small but clean food is amazing, fresh and hot. I always order here the plater with chicken and beef kabab with rice . I have never got disappointed from food or customer service. You should give it try“

“This place serves really good, delicious momos. They only thing you need to make sure is that repeat your order and confirm before you pay. They charged for Veg chili momos and just served veg momos. This happened with me 2 times and I observed that with other customer as well.“

“This place is fire. Shawarma on the rocks is my go to and next is butter chicken. For sure gonna plan on trying some wraps next time I slide. 10/10 would bring out the homies here. Service is quick and fast got that extra sauce too when I ask. Good people good food“

“I've been coming here since it was in the old building. Consistent recipes, bursting with flavor. Food has actually gotten ever better. Rice is fluffy and they put the crispy rice on top. We always get a bunch of chicken and steak. Add some Shirazi salad with dressing on it. Great for a crowd. The grocery store attached is worth a wander and has things you can't find anywhere else. It's just a fun place to visit and locals are lucky to have it.“
