Halal Restaurants near Palo Alto, CA

“Had lunch here yesterday while passing through the area, the mushroom pide was out of this world. The pastry/crust was unbelievably fresh and the flavor was delicious! Our server Umut was super friendly and attentive. Positive experience all around!“

“This place literally has the best salads ever. They’re consistently fresh with their ingredients & so tasty every time! We usually order in for work & i always rave about them. My coworkers love them too! Huge plus since they have halal chicken. My favorite is the cali-ceezer.“

“Amazing food highly recommend“

“I was never a fan of Lamb Gosht curry until I tried it at this restaurant. The gravy here is noticeably thicker, with a subtle hint of tomato flavor that set it apart from others I’ve had. In a well-prepared curry like this, the meat almost melts into the sauce, blending seamlessly—a result of slow cooking over hours, and it’s clear the restaurant has put in the effort to achieve that perfection.“

“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.“

“I spent a few weeks in Xinjiang a million years ago and ate laghman -- the Uyghur's national dish -- two or three times a day. Loved it loved it loved it. Hadn't had any in over 25 years, then recently moved to the area and saw that downtown Menlo Park had a Uyghur place. Woo hoo!

The noodles and sauce are perfect. (The meat is surprisingly low-quality so I ask for it without the meat and just get some flank steak slicked up for stir-fry at Whole Foods and cook that up at home to add.) The portion is generous and the dish keeps well in the fridge for a few days.“

“Delicious. The Yorker burger was so satisfying.“

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

“Great experience! Food was fresh, served quickly and delicious. Loved the customer service! Will definitely be coming back! Wishing you guys the best!“

“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.“

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

“This place is amazing! The food was fantastic, reminding me of authentic desi food!! It took them a little bit to bring our naan,but at the end even though it was super busy. One of the guys came apologizing for the delay and also brought us 5 masala chai and lassi on house, If I wasn’t visiting San Francisco, I would 100% come back!“

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

“great place and nice food“

“Zadna is wonderful.The food is absolutely delicious and the people are fabulous. Please make sure to support them.They deserve it.“

“Great place for a quick yet freshly made Mediterranean food! We tried the falafel pita wrap with babaganoush and fries + chicken shawarma with rice , hummus and and walnut pepper dip (just so amazing). The chicken was succulent and perfectly spiced and the falafel was crispy yet light. Love all their sides and extra sauces too. Don’t miss out on the freshly squeezed juices- orange carrot was my favorite!“

“Ever since I walked into this restaurant, I instantly fell in love. The clean, healthy, tasty, perfectly portioned sized, and masterly prepared dishes by Ali, and his friendly staff, keep me coming back. My new favorites are the lentil soup, and lamb shank (limited menu special). Satisfying food experience I highly recommend.“

“Awesome food!!! Yummy Soy chap🤩“

“Had a wonderful meal with my nephew here last night. Food was fresh,very well presented and delicious. Definitely a great change of pace from the usual! I would highly recommend it if you are looking for a nice, satisfying meal with a different twist. Added note, the Borscht was to die for.“

“This food is angelic. The staff is also so incredibly kind! I accidentally sent my order to the Palo Alto location and then I showed up to the Mountain View location. The Mountain View location made everything for me on the spot and didn't change me anything. Pretty sure they lost a lot of money on my order, but they did it out of the kindness of their hearts. Couldn't recommend enough!

Dietary restrictions: I was able to find gluten free options“

“I've eaten at Halal Fried Chicken a number of times and I can easily say I love this place. The options they have are delicious(my personal favorite is hot chicken 🍗 and chicken popcorn They have other options on the menu along with specia the location. Services is very friendly. This place is a definite must try.“

“We were looking for a halal sushi place during our visit to the Bay Area and we discovered this amazing place. The atmosphere was nice even though we didn’t dine in.

The service and hospitality was great; the folks taking the order were very polite and patient. Gave us all the time we needed to think and decide on our order without showing any sign of irritation (which is very common in many restaurants). They also have a one time offer of 10% off if you order via the Chownow app which was great.

Finally, the food was amazing and delicious ??. We were very happy to have this halal sushi option and would definitely visit them the next time we are in the Bay Area.

Dietary restrictions: They explicitly advertise as halal and serve everything halal which is great!!!“

“Good food, reasonable prices, friendly staff quick service and groovy music“

“This place is super yummy! We've ordered twice now and enjoyed everything. This time we got the chicken Milano pizza which is super flavorful and has lots of toppings. Also go the chicken Alfredo pasta for my daughter and it's good, albeit a little bland for adults but perfect for kids, and some chicken wings which were cooked well.

Last time we got a stromboli which was great, too.

Will definitely keep Via Mia in our take out rotation.

Everything is halal!
