Halal Restaurants near Lexington, MA

“For all the Momo lovers in area. Tried the pan fried veggie Momo and tandoori Momos. They were indeed really good but a few suggestions for the restaurant:More Momo chutney with orders would be great and spicy chutney on side too. And as for the tandoori Momos, they felt a little raw which took away from flavor.Overall great “

“Good food, great prices & friendly service! 👌“

“Foods are delicious. My first experience in this restaurant was great. Tasty and delicious food.“

“Great Somali food“

“Damn good“

“An amazing gem in Belmont. I can’t recall ever having a more tender chicken than I had here. The portions for the main dishes are enormous so they’re worth the price. The staff were kind and attentive. I’m looking forward to trying more dishes and I highly recommend Cafe Vanak!

Vegetarian options: The menu offers an impossible version of some dishes and there are grilled veggie options as well.

Parking: There’s a small lot behind the cafe, and street parking seems reasonable.“

“Ordered delivery. The spicy chicken with hand pulled noodles. Omg that was tasty! Also the beef samosa was awesome. Good prices and delicious food!“

“While visiting MA I Checked out DAVES.. chicken was spicy & good , tried daves special with fries. Medium tasty spice definitely ruled over canes with the spicy breaded chicken. Daves sauce was comparable to canes. Great experience ! If your not into cabbage, just ask to hold the dressing“

“I expected more than corned beef out of a can from the description on the menu. The home fries were cold. Good sized portions and the service was adequate. We chose another breakfast place for the next day. Great location, though, in a walkable neighborhood .“

“The food was great!! Ordered take out out today and especially loved the tikka masala and the veg samosas. Will be back sure! 10/10 would recommend!“

“Outstanding Indian food, we are so lucky to have Masala in Union Square.“

“I had just missed my flight back home and after 5 hours at the airport things began to look rather grim. I then decided to take a walk and by complete luck happened to use this location as a pickup spot for my Uber. What started as me wanting a small snack then turned into a newfound appreciation for Somali cuisine and an eating experience I will have yet to forget. Tawakal Halal gave me the best food and service in about 14 minutes than other establishments have managed to give me in an hour, so great in fact, that I wouldn’t have forgiven myself if I didn’t go a second time before I left. The food by itself is beyond amazing and I could write a whole review entirely on how great the food is, however, my personal favorites were the Goat Biryani and the Halwa as an excellent dessert option after. In addition to the food, the service here was amazing as well. The staff were always making sure I had everything I needed and doing everything they could to make my experience there a pleasant one, even offering me tea as I waited for my Uber. All in all, the best way I could describe this café to anyone wanting to know more about it is that it is truly everything you could ever ask for in a dining experience: fantastic food and amazing service. It even no longer made me upset that I missed my flight that day for if I hadn’t, I would have never been able to find this gem of a café. Thank you, Tawakal Halal, so much for giving me an experience I will never forget and know that when I return to Boston, you can bet the first stop on my itinerary will be your café.

“Amazing food with variety of options to choose from! fresh cut veggies and drinks. The food is always delicious, and the service is top-notch. Highly recommend the bowl and falafel. Friendly staff and a cozy atmosphere make it a great spot for lunch or dinner. Can't wait to come back!
Highly recommended“

“They have an amazing and fresh falafel I've ever had in Boston!“

“Love the food. Remind me of my mom's food which is highest level of compliment anyone can provide. Food has always been fresh, I have eaten inside and got it delivered through Uber eats and door dash. Food quality has been consistent. I ordered from this place quite a lot. Keema, Nihari, Naan, Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala, Achari Gosht, Chicken Curry, Goat Curry, Beef Curry, Biryani, Chapli Kebab, Pakoras. All of these dishes are highly recommended. I wish they actually gave more raita and green chutney, they definitely are stingy on it lol.“

“The establishment is exceptionally clean, the staff is remarkably friendly, and the cuisine is quite delicious. Furthermore, Dave's Chicken is conveniently situated in a plaza, providing an excellent opportunity to enjoy a leisurely stroll and browse the shops.“

“It is really good good with good quantity Very friendly staff and good at explaining their menu Must try“

“The best Mediterranean food in Cambridge, I recommended this place, good food, good prices, and very nice customer service. Thank you ???“

“We usually order from a different Shawarma place in Somerville, but decided to give Sam's a try. The food was very good, and in good sized portions. They were good about following requests to leave things out of the wraps. Note that they do the style with fries on the side rather than in the wrap. My only complaint is that they list some, but not all, of the ingredients on their site. So if you have things you can't eat, I definitely recommend calling them to double check. My partner can't do creamy sauces, and they listed tahini sauce but not garlic sauce in the lamb/beef shawarma, which ended up being a problem. Not a huge thing, just annoying that they make it look like everything is listed when it isn't.“

“Delicious authentic food, very friendly staff. Def worth it!“

“Certainly the best Persian food in Boston. Must try the Koobideh“

“wah ji wah , desi feel was awaken , best food bhaji , guys come here and taste real indian food“

“During my trip to Boston, I visited a Pakistani and Middle Eastern restaurant that instantly felt like home. The owner, who I believe was also running the place, was incredibly friendly and served us with genuine warmth and hospitality. We ordered classic Pakistani dishes, and the chef also Pakistani prepared them right in front of us, which made the experience even more special. The flavors were just like back home, and after five days of traveling, I finally got to enjoy a sip of proper desi-style chai and I absolutely loved it! This place is a gem for anyone craving authentic taste and heartfelt service.“

“My new favorite eating spot when I’m in Cambridge waiting on the commuter train 🚂“

“Wow! This unassuming stall in the 88 Food Connection is home to some really excellent food. We thoroughly enjoy the lamb pilaf and beef noodle soup. The chefs are also very nice folks and we're happy to support this place.

Recommended for locals and people passing through!“

“Pretty standard halal cart food, but it's chipotle-style, where you can choose your own ingredients. Interestingly, chickpeas is one of those options, which isn't normally seen with the halal cart food. They have all the standard options like chicken, lamb, combo, platters and wraps.“

“Huge portions, reasonable prices, tasty food and excellent service .“

“The food was AMAZING!! Our server was quick and checked up on us frequently. If you are looking for quality Indian food I highly recommend coming here and having their pani puri! 100000000/10 would pay millions to come here for the first time again“

“Delicious, authentic food. I grew up in Dubai and the shawarmas remind me of what I had there. I live an hour away and willing to drive all the way there to get their food. Its that good!“

“The food was excellent. There was a fair amount of heat and spice, but it was balanced nicely with well-developed flavors. Even on a 95 ° f day, outside dining was comfortable because of the strong cross breeze and shade.“

“I have been in this retaurant many many times for lunch buffet. They have great Pakistani food at buffet for very reasonable price. I would highly recommend to enjoy their Buffet. I believe that they serve lunch buffet 7 days a week.“

“Falafel Corner is one of my favorite Boston-area falafel spots. For a tiny place next to a university that's open until 3am, you might be expecting food that's best consumed drunk, but you'd be wrong. The falafel has a delightful herby flavor that always pleasantly surprises me, and it's got an excellent consistency as well. I will admit I haven't tried much else on the menu, but that's only because I can't pass up their falafel.“

“My family’s favorite pizza! The people there are also always friendly and helpful. My 17 year old said the chicken bacon ranch pizza is the best they have ever had. I love the cheese so much - I know I should also branch out but it really is so good. Also, the salad and their ranch dressing is so good, fresh, and I loved that it had lots of carrot and cucumber slices, and green pepper. Yum!“

“Good Shawarma, great people.
The service was attentive and friendly, they ask you what you want in it, and will follow your preferences. The shawarma was good and plentiful. The only drawback was a pre-cut meat, whereas, freshly cut meat from the spit makes all the difference between good and great. Still a good Shawarma and also fairly priced“

“This Indian food was good . The mango ? Lassi was absolutely delicious. The friendliest people serving the food . I met them at the “ Copley Farmers Market “. Parking ?️ you have the option of looking for meter parking or parking in the garage which is less than 1/2 block and is a reasonable price . The price of the food is good for the quality and portion size .

Parking: Paid parking less the 1/2 a block the price is reasonable. Or you can look for meter parking but it’s a bit difficult .“

“I met the owner chef a little more than two years ago he’s been in business for a total of nine years. His store is so busy. I cannot begin to tell you how great a job he does. It’s like organized chaos when I first started going there. He had two or three orders on the front counter now he has at least 15 or 20 every time I walk in the door. He is so nice so friendly no matter how busy he is always a big hello in the smile very very nice person. If you like Indian food, This is definitely the place for You Magazine St., Cambridge near Cambridgeport. He goes on several different namesin the computer so make sure you check it out“

“Delicious food!! We had the dosa and it was fantastic.“

“This is probably the best chicken biryani I’ve had. I asked for spicy and was absolutely delighted at the heat as well as the savory flavors and tasty chicken. Definitely will be trying their other selections along with another order of the biryani 👍🙏🏽“

“The best Indian Food I have ever had. I got the Butter Chicken (cooked in a creamy tomato type sauce along with rice and plain naam. Just delicious! Plus leftovers.“

“I needed a quick snack while I was waiting for a family member to get her hair done next door. I ordered the baba ghanouj, which comes with pita. Incredibly delicious, homemade baba! Chunks of smoky eggplant, fresh herbs, so flavorful - perhaps the best I've had, and I love this dish. I want it come back now and try their entrees and other spreads. Highly recommend.“
