Halal Restaurants near Newark, CA

“Don't let the parking lot fool you- this place is AWESOME inside!

They have a LARGE selection of ingredients to choose from for your hot pot as well as fruit, cake and freshly made ice cream for dessert. Drinks are included in the buffet price.

Staff are very friendly and helpful and explain things well. This was important for us as we had never been to a hot pot place before so we had no idea what to do😂.

They are open 7 days a week with lunch and dinner buffet. Call for hours and prices. We had lunch on a monday and before tip for 2 of us it was $44.95.

Definetly recommend!“

“The ultimate deli the r best. Sandwiches yummm 5 stars for this place ..I will be back again“

“A great Japanese restuarant offering halal hibachi and sushi rolls. Small but cosy ambiance.
Personally love their dinner hibachi (Steak & chicken , steak & beef both). They serve hibachi with a soup and some salad which is great stuff. The spicy tuna rolls and the Californian rolls are worth the treat. I personally feel the hibachi serving should be slightly more but I don’t mind the current serving as well.
What I did not like was yakisoba, it had very less veges. Service overall is great. Must try if you’re looking for halal Japanese good food. However, it’s a bit pricy comparatively.“

“Awesome, had the falafel gyro. It was very delicious. Crispy on the outside tasty and moist on the inside. If your looking for a meat substitute than the falafel is just the thing.�“

“A Thai Express is absolutely fantastic! The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. Every dish tasted authentic, and the portions were generous for the price. The staff was friendly, fast, and welcoming, and the restaurant was clean and comfortable. I especially loved how quickly the food came out without losing any quality. If you’re craving delicious Thai food with great service, A Thai Express is definitely the place to go. Highly recommended!“

“Excellent venue for events and food is the best.“

“We came here based on recommendation and it did not disappoint us. I had the smash burger and my wife has the zing 1 chicken medium. I think the chicken sandwich is much better and highly recommended. Chicken is soft and tender. The smash burger was great too and the place is very nice with comfortable chair and prayer section.“

“Amazing burger, amazing tastes, the best cheese burger I have ever had in Falafel flame Hayward mission blvd. I strongly recommend this area for everyone Best of luck Hashmatullah faqiri“

“For romantic atmosphere and healthy options“

“Great experience at Guizi! The lamb tripe was flavorful, the lamb wontons were super comforting, and the hand-pulled noodles were perfectly chewy. Would definitely come back! Alex introduced the dishes to us, very professional and friendly.“

“Delicious burgers with options to suit all tastes. They have beef, chicken, and veggie patties as well as some without Pakistani spices for picky eaters like my daughter. They also have loaded quesadillas with fries and their signature spicy sauce which are amazing. They also have a good variety of shakes. We’ve had the mango and the Oreo Never Boreo.“

“Visited this restaurant today at Southland Mall and had a wonderful experience. The food was absolutely amazing , especially the chapli kabab, which was full of flavor and truly outstanding. On top of that, the owner was extremely polite and kind, which made the visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place for both great food and great hospitality!“

“Yay Wendell is back!!! Wendell was the previous owner of the Depot Café. She makes a tocino breakfast with garlic rice and eggs that is fantastic and my go-to. I’ve never had a bad meal there and I ate there probably three days a week while she owned it. I was so disappointed when she sold to that other fella and he pretty much destroyed the restaurant with his food…(it was awful). It was not good and he was not very clean. Counters were dirty, stuff like that. The one thing I can say about having Wendell back is the depot café is being run clean again. You can tell that cleanliness is next to godliness when it comes to Wendell because it’s noticeably cleaner. I stopped coming after my last food experience here, and it wasn’t until I noticed Wendell moving back in that I came back. I ride the train every day, so having my favorite restaurant cafe back to its good food, great conversation is the upgrade that this place needed. I am so happy to be able to come back to the Depot café again! Welcome back Wendell! Those of us that ride the train all the time couldn’t be happier about it.“

“When I search for a burrito I’m looking for the biggest messiest flavor packed burrito I can find—Casa Maria’s birria burrito had me on the floor. I went back the next day for the shredded chicken and it was quality meat soaked in a delicious sauce. The spicy salsa was thick, spicy, and amazing. They do not skimp here. They are also friendly and clean. Impressed all around. Don’t hesitate, eat here.“

“It was my first time here, and I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. We ordered a variety of dishes, including dhai bata dev puri, tandoori chicken, butter chicken, kulchas (onion and paneer), chole masala, and kadai paneer. The service was excellent, and the food was simply amazing. The meat was tender and flavorful, while the chaat was a delightful burst of taste. The kulchas were soft and fluffy, and the butter chicken was perfectly balanced, not too sweet. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience.“

“If you think Panda Express is good… this is straight Michelin star compared to it!!! The best halal Chinese food in the Bay Area!!! It’s Panda Express style so you get to pick your plate & what you would like it’s always fresh!!! The portion sizes are really generous also!!!“

“The food was pretty good and the hand-made tortillas was something unique. I received a good service by the staff. Also, when i tried the camarones empanesados it was on the spot. Thumbs up. However, i feel like prices should be shown because I wasn't able to see until I got my bill.“

“One of the kind gem, meat lovers paradise without breaking the bank. The quality of the beef was spectacular and the rotisserie chicken right on point. From what I can see, it appears to be a family business so they take pride on the food and service“

“Best burger In town! Recommend.“

“Nihari and naan of that restaurant is super great!“

“I just stopped by for a quick meal, had the lamb kebabs plate. The kebabs were very tasty, nicely cooked and everything else on the plate was extremely fresh and flavorful. The place is very clean, the service was very friendly also. Will come back again for sure.“

“Very good food with good service. Definitely, recommend for a visit“

“What a lovely addition to the stanford shopping center!

Among all the kebabs, the chicken kebab is our fav!

- chicken kebab
- classic hummus
- cucumber lemonade
- scrambled eggs with sausage (brunch item)

Chicken kebab is our favorite, we ordered many times, and each time is consistently good!

Classic hummus, great, who doesn’t love classic hummus!

The scrambled egg we hope it can be slightly larger in portion, but still very flavorful!

Oh and the cucumber lemonade is refreshing too!“

“We are from Connecticut, and during a recent trip to the Bay Area, we had the extreme good fortune to try the Afghan Awasana Kabob House. Oh my ... what an experience! The food was superb … an epicurean delight, but also plentiful, and very reasonably priced. The qabuli palow - a lamb shank dish was a standout, and the squash bolani - a stuffed flatbread was out of this world. The owner was very friendly during dinner, only to be surpassed by what happened after our dinner. Upon leaving, our car would not start. The owner offered to jump start our car. When that did not work, he offered us a ride back to the house where we were staying ... which we gratefully accepted. On the way, while we were thanking him profusely, he indicated that this was not an imposition as he routinely gave rides to his workers. I was moved to tears with his generosity. The Afghan Awasana Kabob House stimulated my palate, satiated my appetite, and above all, nourished my soul with renewed faith in the kindness of humanity. A truly memorable evening that will not soon be forgotten.“

“Great spot to chill and eat“

“Being part Burmese, I was very impressed with Burma Bay Cafe’s delicious dishes! Great service too. I’ll definitely be back.“

“First time tried their subs. It was very tasty and good quality. Thankful that we have a halal subs close by. Highly recommend.“

“Super delicious, 5 star quality. This is definitely my place for eats !!! Excellent everything. Trust me it’s quality food best of the best !“

“Really solid food. Great flavors, we had the Tikka Masala and the Pakistani beef dish. The naan was generous, we only wish the meat dishes had just a bit more meat to feel generous. That’s a good thing that we wanted more. Definitely a solid place.“

“So good! Our first time and definitely not our last!“

Peshawari flavor. Service is always great and people are very nice .The food is very high quality fresh and best. Always have great experience here. Everytime I go with my family I sit at the decorated lounge which is very beautiful. Highly recommend“

“I’m not usually that kind of person that likes to leave reviews!! But this place is awesome �!! Great food, clean place, third time here and will definitely come back whenever I’m in the area .“

“The food was really good, full of flavor and definitely one of the better meals we’ve had in a while. It’s great to finally find a place where the taste stands out. The only downside was the long waiting lines, and the staff seemed quite overwhelmed. Service could be smoother, but the food makes it worth trying.“

“Nice and clean environment. Delicious food.“

“Excellent food, excellent taste reasonable price“

“X-tra Hot! Not above my tolerance, enough for that lip burning sensation, but does not linger afterwards nor makes breathing difficult, if you know what I mean (that's Holy Chic+ levels). I can feel that heat moving through my belly for a day after! 🔥 (pretty much the same as Dave's though)“

“Great fast food and very quick service. I would recommend for a quick easy bite to eat. Love it specially Pleasanton location“

“Zareen’s. Is. Amazing.

This place has the best Mango Soft Serve, best Mango Lassi, and best Sheermaal I’ve had in the US.

The food, vibe, and personality of the restaurant are unmatched in the entire bay, nay, even the entirety of America.

My family and I are foodies, and I attest that this place is a must visit in the Bay. This is personally my favorite location but any is amazing.

If you’re reading this and debating on going/bringing your family/visiting for the first time, just come. I am telling you that you won’t be disappointed.“

“Awsm n tasty food………….. :)“

“The service was great, food was brought out quick and all of it was so delicious. Will be back again.“

“Food is by far superb! A must try and check out the place. Food is C delicious you will love it and waiters are extra friendly“

“This is an amazing restaurant! Their food is great. We’ve catered big orders from them twice, and they’ve never let us down—their prices are fair, and they’re always on time. They have a wide variety of halal options, and their staff is personable and friendly. 10/10 recommend.“

“Great food! Can’t wait for the Irvine location to open! It will definitely be worth the drive from San Diego!“

“We finally checked out The Kebab Shop, and it was a total hit!
The biggest surprise was how much the kids loved the food. They inhaled their meals and were actually asking for more by the end. Note to self: next time, we’re skipping the kids' menu and ordering full adult plates for them—they clearly can't get enough of those flavors!
Everything felt high-quality, especially the salad, which was incredibly crisp and fresh. It’s the kind of spot where you feel good about what you’re eating. We will definitely be back soon!“
