Halal Restaurants near Orange, CA

“The food was INCREDIBLE! Very large portions and fresh, healthy choices for all ages. We will definitely come here regularly after our first visit!“

“We first found Big Al's Pizzeria on IG. All of their pizzas caught our eye because of the unique flavors that they serve. We know that often times when you see something on IG and go experience a place in person it may not be as expected. That was NOT the case with Big Al's Pizzeria. WOW!! Can't even tell you how much they exceeded our expectations when it came to the flavors and textures that they deliver. You can tell that they use High Quality, Fresh Ingredients and take pride in their creations, especially with everything being homemade!! I know a lot of people say that it takes a while to receive their pizza but we can tell you IT IS WORTH THE WAIT AND CALORIES!! The combinations on their pizzas are next level and so fun and unique! The pizza dough has the perfect fluffiness, chewy texture and flavor. The wings WOW! Definitely in our top 5 of favorites! So crispy and flavorful! OOh plus the Brisket Sandwich and the bread they use... ufffff!!! Don't forget about Dessert! Even if you fill up on pizza you better at least take a slice home with you because IT IS WORTH IT!! They are large, creamy, flavorful and just AMAZEBALLS! We got the Tiramisu and it was NEXT LEVEL! Everything is OUT OF THIS WORLD and we can't recommend them enough!“

“I took my dad to try it this afternoon. The ordering system is very simple and straightforward; just scan the QR code to order online. The lamb shank was tender, and I loved the sweet and crispy onion salad. The staff was very friendly and helped my dad heat up his food. I'm so glad I came here to try the food, but my only regret is that I don't live here and can't come every day.“

“Yes and yes! Great menu! Will be back!“

“We arrived earlier than the food truck and almost missed them, but luckily right as we were looking for dinner alternatives they pulled in! Absolutely delicious, we ordered the 24" chicken shawarma meal with extra pickles. The chicken was super delicious, and the fries really hit the spot. Highly recommend!“

“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!“

“I always get the combo over rice with white sauce. The meat is always consistent and I enjoy the food very much. The restaurant is clean and the employees are great. Good service overall at the Garden Grove location.

Parking: Park anywhere it is available.“

“Loved this spot. My favorite Pakistani restaurant so far in Orange County! Fine dining restaurant with great ambience. Food was great. Delicious, flavorful, filling Desi food. Definitely recommend the lamb chops and Chicken Karhai.“

“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!“

“Best Egyptian food place in Cali. The owners are super friendly. Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻“

“GUYS, if you haven’t tried it, you are MISSING OUT . Soooooo goood.“

“Great Halal Food options in LA. Delicious food. Loved their Cheeseburger and special sauce. A must have if you ever visit this place.

The only thing off was their ambience and atmosphere. Extremely dull and off-putting. No modern vibe of a cafe.“

“Un buen servicio y la comida rica“

“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.“

“really recommend so yammy and the price is good variety of meals must try“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Food is excellent, excellent service , they take the time to make sure food is 100 % perfect and flavors are amazing!!!!!“

“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!!!!“

“Excellent food and fast service!“

“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.“

“Shout out to Baran Mediterranean restaurant. We had a superbowl/ 50th birthday party yesterday and everything was literally perfect. Food/staff/ decorations/ cake, everything was perfect. There's nothing I would change or do differently. We had a party of 80 and everyone has been texting today saying how good the food was. Go try them out, you won't regret it. Owners are pretty amazing too, super friendly and down to earth. Thank you Baran!!!!❤️“

“Pretty good, but kind of overrated.“

“The best burger I’ve had in years.

It’s rare to find a burger place that also serves good chicken. So I chose the build-your-own-burger option and ordered an Angus beef and chicken burger.

My son was with me, and he said this was one of the best chicken tenders he’s ever had.

🔥“

“Great food same like karachi. Halal for Muslim brothers.“

“Great service and reasonable prices“

“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.“

“Great food. Very Happy I stopped there for dinner. I will be going back there again soon.“

“Delighted by my midday visit to Urban Punjab in garden grove for a lunch at 3 PM—serendipity in its timing as they were open and welcoming. Tucked away in a modest shopping center that also boasts a superb shawarma joint, this place is a hidden treasure. The tandoori chicken and dal makhani I savored transported my taste buds straight to the streets of Delhi with their authentic, extraordinary flavors. The lacha paratha? Simply genius. Service was extraordinary, matched by the unique touch of serving drinks in metal, regal glasses that elevate the dining experience to one of noble indulgence. Having the pleasure of meeting both owners, their dedication was evident in every aspect. I'm looking forward to a return visit with loved ones in tow, ready to embark on a culinary expedition through their entire menu. Heartfelt thanks to Urban Punjab for a five-star experience.“

“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. :)“

“The food was INCREDIBLE! Very large portions and fresh, healthy choices for all ages. We will definitely come here regularly after our first visit!“

“It was truly a great experience. The portions are very generous, and the staff are respectful and understanding.“

“This savory food fills the tummy with comfort and feeds the soul with pleasure clare“

“I highly recommend that you stop to eat here whenever you can. Amazing five star food. Staff is amazing, welcoming and friendly and helpful. Amazingly clean restaurant too. You will not be disappointed unless you pass them by and don't stop in.“

“My gf and I ordered the Istanbowl. We love this place, and always come here for lunch and dinner“

“Honestly I was going to order basic pizza. I'm glad I tried something new. My family loved the pizza . It has a very original taste it's not sure if it's garlic butter or something along those like got the Hawaiian which at most places the ham over powers the taste of pineapple but this place just knows how to cook it perfectly where your tasting the pineapple and all the other ingredients more then just the Canadian bacon, Aka ham. Also ordered their pepperoni not greasy and over powering with cheese just perfect with the same great taste. This is the go to place for real good overeating pizza.“

“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.“

“Good food and good service“

“Excellent Indian food“

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

“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“

“I would like to recognize Justin, who works at the Dave’s in Anaheim off of Katella. Justin is Great customer service representative. Justin knows how to get the orders out fast when it’s really super busy and when there’s a lot of pressure. His skill at working under pressure is amazing. I really hope he becomes a manager one of these days because he deserves it.“

“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!“

“Good service, good food friendly staff“
