Halal Restaurants near Hamden, CT

“I can’t recommend this place highly enough. I used to get Halal Guys on the green in New Haven for years and was so disappointed when it closed. I’d say Shah’s is even better and more authentic to the “Halal food truck” roots. A combo plate is enough for two meals. Definitely a go-to spot.“

“We tried the new North Haven location. The food was absolutely delicious! We had their monthly special “ispycherrypie” which is lemon chicken!! Soo good, highly recommend!!“

“amazing and affordable for the amount you receive“

“Today was my first time trying Shah Food, and I ended up going back twice in the same day. I tried the chicken burger first, and within two hours I was back for the hot wings. Their spicy sauce is really good. I grew up eating spicy food, so I can handle heat, and theirs has flavor and a kick.

The chicken and meat taste very fresh, not rubbery at all, and the bun on the burger was crispy in the best way. I’m already looking forward to trying the gyro next. Exam week has me hungry, and Shah Food is definitely becoming my go-to comfort spot.

Staff is very nice. Their shop is clean as well.

Highly recommend!“

“We stop there every weekend and have breakfast, the staff is very friendly and they know what we order as we sit“

“This is the best (if not only) place in the New Haven, CT area to get authentic Levantine food, including / especially toum. Eating here brings me back to past vacations in Lebanon and the incredible food and company I enjoyed there; for those that prefer other cuisines, this place has you covered as well! Pizza, pasta, the full gamut of Mediterranean food!“

“AMAZING VEGAN SUBS AND PASTA DISHES.“

“The food was awesome and it wasn’t too much to eat, it was just enough food.The service was excellent and so welcoming to me and my family. The atmosphere was great and you can tell that they put in a lot of effort into it. I totally recommend.“

“Absolutely love this restaurant! The staff is super friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. Santana helps pick the BEST dishes!! The environment is cozy, chill, and relaxing — it’s just a place to go when you want some good food and a calm night! Now the FOOD is FIVE STARS!! Never had an issue and I’ve been here many, many times. Always cooked to perfection. The dessert is yummy and their special coffee is the best I’ve ever had… If you have never been, don’t walk, but run… (:“

“From the first interaction to the last, customer service is top tier. They do one thing and one thing very well.. that's chicken. The prices are very reasonable and the food from my experiences, has always come out hot. Nice environment to chill and enjoy a nice hot, fresh meal that doesn't taste frozen.“

“Very nice customer services. They assisted me with my order right away. Everything was hot and fresh and they gave great conversation while waiting for my food. I did dine in and they ask me how was everything. Love that type of interaction when dining in thank you“

“Whenever I am in town I always make sure to get falafel over rice from here at least once. Its so yummy, saucy and optional spicy. Definitely try rice platter i would say. There are plenty seating available too for dine in. Staff is sometimes rude and non welcoming but not too bad.“
