Halal Restaurants near San Leandro, CA

“I had an amazing experience at Dave’s Hot Chicken thanks to Raquel! From the moment I walked in, she was welcoming, friendly, and super patient while I decided what to order. She explained the spice levels clearly and made sure I picked something I’d love.

The food was fresh and delicious, but what really stood out was Raquel’s positive attitude and great customer service. She checked in to make sure everything was good and made the whole experience feel personal and welcoming.

Employees like Raquel are the reason I’ll definitely be coming back. Dave’s Hot Chicken is lucky to have her!“

“I just came to this restaurant for lunch and everything was amazing! The food was so delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. What made the experience even better was the customer service. As soon as I walked in, they welcomed me so warmly and made me feel comfortable right away. They were very kind and kept asking if I needed anything, saying they were there to help. It’s rare to find both great food and such excellent hospitality together. Highly recommend this place, and I will definitely come back again!“

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!“

“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“

“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.“

“Everything we've ordered the past few times have been amazing and cooked to perfection. Portions are also generous with lots of sauce, which pairs well with the rice or naan. The monthly specials are hit or miss, we enjoy the main menu items more consistently. Highly recommend this spot!“

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

“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.“

“The karahi was full of flavor, perfectly cooked, and tasted just like homemade food. The saag was fresh, rich, and went so well with the naan. Everything was served hot and the staff was very welcoming too. Definitely a place I’d love to visit again with family and friends. Highly recommend if you’re craving authentic desi food!“

“Best burger In town! Recommend.“

“Deeeelish! My favorite thing here is the chicken tikka roll, the pratha is so good and it’s very saucy and the perfect amount of spice. I also got the garlic masala fries and samosa and a mango lassi, all very good. Also the folks who work at wrap and roll are the best, so friendly. Highly recommend!“

“rice pudding, cookies, borek,“

“great food & atmosphere! 5 stars!!“

“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.“

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

“The best food I have had in a long time! Great taste and excellent customer service. A must try !“

“Best lamb I’ve had. Kids loved it too!!! Our new spot“

“Tried it for the first time yesterday. We’ve walked by many times during lunch, thinking it was just another fast food chicken place…..finally gave it a try. It was excellent and staff was friendly. Chicken was fresh and crispy. They have many spice levels to choose from. Medium was plenty hot for me. The chicken tender was great, but the sliders were even better. Totally recommend this place!“

“Finally made the 90-minute trek to Dave’s Hot Chicken with the fam! 🍗 The vibe was great—super friendly staff and a very clean spot despite the crowd. The chicken was fresh, hot, and delicious. Only downside was no cheese sticks today, but that just gives us an excuse to come back soon!“

“Falooda and I must say that it was so rich in taste , flavours & very authentic.“

“Excellent unique bbq meant for take out. Pricey but so worth it. Hit the line when it opens to assure food availability. I suggest older folks bring a stool. They sell until tgey run.out of food, but they do warn the line when it gets close. You might be able to eat next door with outside tables and get yourself a beer. The dino ribs are amazing, and massive. Sides are quite tasty.“

“We usually get delivery, but have eaten at the restaurant a couple of times, and it's been a comfortable experience.

The food, though—the food is soooo good! The pizza is always a good choice, and I often find myself going for the rigatoni pasta with Alfredo sauce and chicken. It's cooked perfectly, and it comes with garlic bread!

The salads are a good size for sharing, and we usually order the Caesar.

They offer halal meat options, which is not a consideration for me, but it's good to see that they are conscious of their customers' needs and preferences.

The people are really nice, too!“

“I have been having great shopping for my home ,when ever we need afghan food's,they are treading well ,Specially Kaka Taimour he is the coolest person same all ,The food qualities are great ,the price is medium ,I’m a one of regular customer of Marwa grill and go there from San Francesco,god bless them“

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

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

“Nice and clean environment. Delicious food.“

“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)“

“Heck yes it’s good! I’ve had this from time to time at middle eastern restaurants and never knew what it was called. Got my a few days ago and it’s amazing. Definitely check it out.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Tasty Lebanese food + other things like pastries, fruit drinks and coffee in a no-frills setting. I usually get the chicken shawarma plate which is quite filling and delicious in a homemade way. Spicy sauce is tangy and relatively mild. Yogurt sauce is incredible, next time I will ask for extra. Falafels are more soft than crunchy and very flavorful. Staff are respectful and easy to work with. Located in the Oakland City Center plaza.“

“The food was full of authentic
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 have to say this experience exceeded expectations from start to finish.

A dear friend insisted I try the pineapple coconut cakes, ordering four and telling me “you will see.” That level of confidence immediately raised my curiosity and it absolutely delivered.

From the moment I walked in, the staff set the tone. They were kind, informative, patient, and genuinely welcoming. That level of service matters, and they got it right.

I initially ordered four plates and appreciated the menu variety, especially seeing whole chicken wings offered. But the real moment came when I sampled the shrimp in my car. It was outstanding. Perfectly seasoned, flavorful, and memorable.

I turned right back around and ordered an additional plate with catfish and shrimp, and that sealed it for me. The shrimp are 🔥🔥🔥!

This is the kind of place that earns repeat visits. The food is bold, the service is warm, and the overall experience leaves a lasting impression. I will absolutely be back.“

“I was literally blown away by the flavors!!

We had beef pancakes (little sweet, smooth flavors, so good!!)

Beef and cabbage broth - so much goodness and earthy flavors, truly!

Last but not least, Mongolian chicken was spicy, so tender, and juicy!

Everything tastes really delicious. Definitely plan on coming again next week!

It was so unexpectedly delicious, I forgot to take pictures :))“

“Staff is friendly and the lunch box wall decor is cute. Parking will NOT be in your favor tho.“

“The Fish Pakora at Favorite Indian Restaurant in Hayward is always fresh, crispy, and bursting with flavor. A must-try appetizer that pairs perfectly with their chutneys“

“This place was AMAZING. Transported me to a very cultural space. The fufu and egusi I recommend, it tasted amazing and perfect. Portion sizes don’t look like much, but that coulda fed me for three days. Met the chef himself and he was the sweetest man. I recommend to everyone trying African for the first time. Love this place!!!“

“It was truly a great place to sit and eat at. The food was amazing and delicious. I recommend this restaurant and will be going back. However, there is always room for improvement, the owners family or friends were sitting in the restaurant and was sometimes noisy with kids running around and mess with toys. Beside that it was all good.“

“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.“

“Very nice little Indian restaurant close to work. I've always enjoyed the dishes I've tried here great authentic taste and flavor. I especially love their aloo paratha and chicken tikka masala. My only issue is that they are not consistent with their timings. They say they open at 12 noon, but sometimes they are closed or not even open by 12:30.“
