Halal Restaurants in Oakland, CA

“THE BEST CHICKIN IN INDY“

“They are DELICIOUS. The marketing/design of the product is great. They even super conscious of the environmentally when it comes to the packaging. Would by again! I got the sauce trio and the sumac. There was a problem in transit with two of the products. Customer service was top notch. Sent replacements right away. Ethical and amazing company.“

“I just ordered from here yesterday and today I had to order again me and my husband LOVED IT. When I say the best food I had in a long time. Thank you for your services and good amazing food. It really touched our soul. My new favorite place to eat.“

“Hands down best Gyro I’ve had since visiting Denmark. The seasoned fries paired with their ranch and smokey barbecue sauces were divine. The atmosphere is very friendly and the dine-in aesthetic was quaint. HIGHLY recommend OakTown Kabobs with my boy Farzad.“

“The restaurant itself is not in the best location, and the interior and bathroom isn't the best. But we went in and were welcomed so warmly for dinner when the place wasn't busy. We got the chicken biryani, garlic naan, and chicken tikka masala. The biryani is one of the best I have ever had in the US and the garlic naan was perfect and fluffy but crispy. The chicken tikka masala was creamy, not overcooked, and well seasoned. The best Indian restaurant we went to in East Bay. Would come again.“

“The food tastes great and at a good price! :)“

“The chicken halal plate from this place is Beyond DELICIOUS! If you like halal food, you won’t be disappointed eating here. It’s pretty good. The block it’s in can be sketchy at times, so practice caution when parking, stay alert and quick purchasing. They also have really good herbs, seasonings and products to purchase.“

“Got the 8 pieces of dark meat, and it was surprisingly really good with crispy batter and a little spicy kick. It's even good the day after, reheated in the microwave. Definitely coming back here when I have that fried chicken craving.“

“Good size portions of good food at a good price. Great location too. They will see me again many times. Limited menu, but that’s not a bad thing. Perfect before or after a show or event. Plus they are open late.“

“Best food in town. If you love Indian food then you should go and try their authentic Indian food. I am pretty much sure that you won’t be disappointed. I give them 5 out of 5.“

“great food & atmosphere! 5 stars!!“

“A community-friendly market and restaurant. Good prices, good food with generous portions and helpful staff.

Vegetarian options: Serving halal and vegetarian food with well stocked refrigerated/ frozen foods and meat counter.“

“1/2/2025 - They have private rooms with floor seating (with cushions). The table sheet is plastic.

The service is slow but with a smile.
The food comes in piping hot and is delicious.

What an experience!“

“Best burritos in the bay period end of discussion“

“First time getting Dave's with my work partner after a long night and had a great experience. Food was amazing. Arianna at the cash egister was amazing, made me feel very welcomed and gave me great suggestions on what to order. Will definitely return.“

“One of the best halal Middle Eastern food spots I've ever tried! The flavors were incredible authentic, rich, and perfectly balanced. The grilled meats were juicy and tender, the rice was fragrant and fluffy, and the hummus was unbelievably smooth. The service was friendly and made the experience even better. If you're looking for amazing halal food, this place should be at the top of your list. Highly recommended!“

“Great food and great prices. You will have to wait but for the amount of food you’re getting, it’s a good deal. They also know how to season their food.
My favorites are the burgers, chicken tenders, and Philly Cheesesteak (with everything on it). And their fries are often fresh and crispy!

Ask for extra BBQ sauce, it’s made in house

—— Update 2 years later

Still my go to spot. They don’t sell their BBQ sauce anymore but God do I miss it. They also have added chicken and waffles to the menu!“

“I bought the oyster combo with DoorDash and I absolutely loved the deep fried oysters. The fried breading was very tasty and the oysters tasted like they were cooked just right.

I chose potato salad for the side, I liked it, however, I do not know if they make it fresh.

The combo also comes with a Shasta brand soda, but cola and lemon lime are the only offered flavors.

I definitely want to order from here again.“

“I had the most heartwarming experience at this spot in Downtown Oakland! After a while, I finally got to reunite with my best friend, and we decided to meet here for breakfast. The buffet was fresh, delicious, and had a great variety to choose from. The coffee was strong and smooth—just what we needed to start our morning. The cozy atmosphere and friendly service made it even better. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a good breakfast and a place to catch up with someone special! 🌟“

“when I'm not in the mood to cook the first thing I think about is going to them.“

“Savoring Lebanese cuisine; like never before . una reunión de amigos ... y una comida excelente ... de falafel boy quede impresionado. más que recomendado.“

“the food was entirely Afghani IMHO, and according to some younger Afghani guests. I had lamb kabob and Afghani rice, two felafel and ferni [Afghani custard]. Rice delicious. Unlike any rice anywhere. Kabob definitely helal, tender, more cooked than an American would cook it but a lot less than a Turk. And full of flavour some of which I'm at a loss to identify, something enhancing its 'meatiness'. I don't know Afghani herbs/spices. I ate too too much. The mango lassi is just creamily heavenly

It's not the Ritz. Family run restaurant with a traditional Afghani sofra to eat at if you don't like a table and chairs“
