Halal Restaurants near Morton Grove, IL

“One of the best restaurants in Chicago! The lunch special is my favorite - the most flavorful kabobs and rice (I upgrade to the Kabuli style rice). I also love the Kabuli Palaw (lamb shank). Service is always efficient and friendly. Afghan Kabob is worth a visit even if you're not in the area!“

“Very delicious tacos, mango lassi, chicken spring rolls!“

“Ya Hala truly lives up to its name — a warm welcome from start to finish. The moment you walk in, the aroma of freshly grilled meats and spices wraps around you like a hug from home. The staff is attentive without hovering, and every dish feels prepared with real care. The hummus is creamy and rich, the shawarma tender and bursting with flavor, and the falafel has that perfect crispy shell with a soft, savory center.

What makes Ya Hala stand out, though, is its atmosphere — relaxed yet vibrant, perfect for both family dinners and casual nights out. Portions are generous, prices fair, and you leave both full and genuinely satisfied. Ya Hala isn’t just another Mediterranean restaurant; it’s a true gem that makes you want to come back again and again.“

“clean, very fast. great hours!!“

“My twin and I stopped by this burger joint nearby and ordered burgers with fries. All I can say is that everything was made really well. The burgers were fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly, while the fries were crispy without being overly oily like they are at some other places. Overall, it was a great meal, and we'll definitely be coming back again!“

“Lovely spot with attentive service. The lamb over the eggplant puree is sublime. Loved the zucchini fritters. Would have preferred if the fish was whole rather than a filet and if they were going to leave the skin on, to prepare it crispy and served skin side up so I'd doesn't sit in the sauce where it will get soggy. But everything was delicious and all the servers and bussera were great!“

“My wife and I went there for the date night special and it was fantastic. We aren’t really big Indian food fans, but we definitely liked what we tried and would definitely go back again.“

“A must try spot! Great food, coffee and atmosphere! Definitely recommend!“

“Came there on a Sunday after swim class and ordered a slider with fries. Awesome! Wonderfully prepared! The cashier Jeniah was incredible on helping me choose my order. And the supervisor Sam was great! Thank you for the wonderful customer service“

“Food was outstanding as was the service! We definitely recommend it!“

“Great selection and halal!“

“Очень вкусная Среднеазияткая кухня. плов, лагман и самса“

“Always delicious! Always accommodating…over the past five years I’ve experienced feeding from 3-30, and never disappointed! The service is always great! They take huge pride in their food and work. We just had a party for 30, and I should have just put out a banner so people would stop asking me where the food was from 💖. All were very impressed!“

“Just called to put an order to go , and this guy who anwered , lacks any customer skill at all and shouldn’t be working in hospitality . Maybe they aren’t so accustomed with talking with customers who aren’t from their own country. Do yourself a favor and pass this place . That guy should be ashamed of his behavior.“

“Alex was a gem! My grandson had been wanting to try this place and we stopped by on his 11th Birthday at the Melrose Park IL location. Alex made a quick stop a kind and memorable experience for my little one. Location is clean and welcoming, service was the best I have had in a very long time. Give that man a raise!“

“Tried the Omani Mutton Mandi here, which was recommended by Rahman bhai, and it was such a great choice! We’re visiting from Dallas, and Rahman bhai was so kind and made sure we tried one of the best items on the menu. His service was exceptional, and he went out of his way to make sure we had a great experience. The Mandi was delicious, and the hospitality made it even better. Definitely worth trying!“

“Amazing service, food, and experience. Can't wait to share this with my boys next time.“

“love this place! i order from here at least once a week!“

“Delicious Somali restaurant in Chicago suburbs. My first visit to a Somali restaurant and I was pleasantly surprised. Food was pretty good. Loved the Goat with rice and vegetables. Their tea was good too. Didn't care much for the orange juice made from concentrate. Lady at the counter does all the billing and orders. She spoke decent english. Had to wait to use the bathroom, which was not gender segregated. Interior is very basic, but food makes up for it.“

“First time trying this establishment and the food was delicious. You can tell it was fresh and it was all tasty. We enjoyed their signature burger, Reuben, and hot panini. The refreshers and mocktails are soo good as well! Can’t go wrong!“

“Came in today with our big family and had an amazing experience! The food was delicious, and the management truly cared about making sure we had a great time. We tried just about everything on the menu, and our favorites were the smash burger and the nachos. We even tried their boba tea, and it was delicious! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and served with great hospitality. Highly recommend—we’ll definitely be back!“

“Great place for Eastern European and Central Asian food. You must try the hearing salad and the honey cake. The service is wonderful. The place is slightly rundown, but the food is delicious. I came here for Ukrainian Borsch and Plov. Recommend everything.“

“WOW! This is my new favorite place. The food is absolutely phenomenal and it is so fairly priced. I was blown away by the portions and the incredible flavor. I got the 4pc. catfish meal and a banana pudding and I was so impressed. The person working was also incredibly kind and had a lovely personality. I will definitely be back.“

“the lamb with spinach, mushrooms and potatoes was so delicious! Vegetable vindaloo was pretty good, but asked if there were green peas and was told no. There were a LOT. the garlic Naan was delightful“

“Food is delicious and personal so nice“

“Food is mouth watering delicious. My daughter and I had the veggie tostini, oh my goodness, the best Turkish sandwich we have ever had. Owners are very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this wonderful restaurant. We will be back for sure 😊😊“

“💯 it’s the best place I recommended“

“For the amount and quality of food you get for the price, this place is a steal. After traveling all day and parking at the Cumberland Blue Line, we came down the road to Bab Alsalam and I cannot rave enough how amazing this place is and will be coming back each and every single time we travel out of O'Hare. The food was not only delicious, but so much flavor punched into every bite. We ordered a Chicken Shawarma Entree and the Mixed Shawarma and both were exceptional in taste. Comes with salads, pita bread, and incredibly flavorful hummus. Attached is a photo of how much food they give you. It's massive. We had enough for leftovers the next day. HIGHLY recommend this place and I'm already trying to find a way to make my way back to Chicago just to eat at this place again lol. Thanks for the amazing service!“

“The food was absolutely amazing! It was so hard to choose what to get with such a big variety to choose from that all looked and sounded amazing!! We definitely had the wings that were soooo sooo delicious and some other stuff that also was amazing! Took about 40 minutes to get there but so worth the trip and will be a regular spot to visit! Can’t wait to come back!!!“

“Took my date here from dinner as she recommended, and was pleased as punch that it was as good as she advertised! Service was lightning quick, atmosphere was very relaxing and welcoming, and the food was divine. It was my first time having Indian cuisine, and it did not disappoint one bit! I had the Butter Chicken and my date had the Cheese Dosa. Both came out hot and appetizing, and the Butter Chicken tasted amazing. 10/10, would absolutely eat here almost every day if I could.
Edit on 08/15/2026: Went back her for dinner again and it was still a banger. Get the Mushroom Cheese Dosa, it's so good.“

“The food is so delicious. The people are very kind and so patient. The workers are so happy to help and work fast too. My family always comes here and my sisters and I love the vegan options. The owner is very kind and looks out for everyone with great conversations. They have a lot of delicious drinks. We are looking forward to coming back soon!“

“I understand that it is small. it reminds me of Harold’s Chicken but it has burgers! Service went well and the food! It’s a good place for lunch when you are living in the Loyola University area!“

“Love this place! Incredible birria! Try the birria quesadilla and elote!“

“Amazing biryani . Our server Rafee was awesome“

“Stopped by Hot N' Spicy Chicago on Devon Ave for a late-night bite and was impressed. Grabbed the Chicken Chutney Roll—tender chicken wrapped in a soft paratha with a tangy chutney kick. Also tried the Masala Fries, which were crispy and packed with flavor. The staff was friendly, and the place had a cozy vibe. If you're in the area and craving a flavorful halal meal, this spot is worth checking out. Definitely coming back to try more of their menu.“

“I usually LOVE this place. But the food has been very inconsistent lately at the Troy, MI location. I get the same thing every week. And every week it’s a little different. I get the mixed platter. Last week there was no sauce, and I always order extra on the side, but the little cup was only half full. So, no sauce on the platter, and barely any on the side. This week there were more onions than gyro/chicken. Barely any meat; very meager portion. And still, side of sauce only half full. Super disappointed. I’ll give them one more chance, then I’ll have to stop giving them my business.“

“The best food & Staff very yummy 😋“

“Truly an awesome surprise, decided to order on a whim and found the best chicken tenders I've ever had in my life, not exaggerating. Really happy I happen to live close to here. The two owners are very nice and friendly. Do yourself a favor and try Ciao Chow“

“Great place for grilled chicken . The side dishes are also good. Friendly staff always on point;)“

“I recently visited Faiza Restaurant after the change in ownership, and I was genuinely impressed by the experience. I ordered the plov and honey cake, and both were absolutely exceptional. The plov was flavorful, perfectly prepared, and beautifully balanced, while the honey cake was simply outstanding—delicate, rich, and delicious.

What impressed me even more was having the opportunity to see the kitchen. It was spotlessly clean and well maintained, and the employees preparing the food appeared clean, professional, and attentive to hygiene. That level of cleanliness gave me even more confidence in the quality of the food.“

“Love the food and there open late!!“

“The Best Food in Chicago,Best Dishes to try Beef Fry, Chicken 65 , Zeera Rice, Dal Tadka and My All time favorite Mutton Biryani. The best thing now is that it’s open 24 hrs and South Indian breakfast is must try. Very good Staff and friendly atmosphere.“

“I ordered for first time the All in platter which gives u a little bit of everything.. n I tried the stuffed grape leaves and the chocolate cake.. 😋 the cake is more than enough reason for me to order from them again . the Rumi sauce is also very good.. not too spicy.. has a little kick..“

“The food and service was so great at this place. The cooks were really nice and attentive. We had the wings, gyro and burger with milkshakes. Everything was freshly made and delicious. The homemade fries were the best. The vibe in this place was great and my family really enjoyed everything. We will be back!!!“

“Amazing food, very reasonable price. Huge portions and great customer service!! Also free parking and authentic Bangladeshi, indian and Pakistani cuisine absolutely amazing!! Can’t wait to come back here again.“

“I tried this restaurant on whim for a gyros. The quality of food and service is top notch. The gyros and stuffed grapes leaves were excellent!! Both were very tasty and the waffle fries were a nice touch crispy yet soft inside and the bag is filled. Over all great experience!! AAA+“
