Halal Restaurants near Somerville, MA

“Really neat restaurant with lots of seating and a menu that has something for everyone. The staff are super friendly and fast, which makes it perfect when you want a quick bite. On top of that, the food is delicious definitely a great spot to stop by!“

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

“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.“

“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 .“

“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.“

“If you are looking for authentic Turkish food north of Boston, look no further than family-run Istanbul Diner Cafe in Saugus (or their original location in Revere)! Pics are from my fourth visit to the newish Saugus branch, a fantastic Adana kebap, with a homemade rice pudding for dessert, on a blustery Saturday. A meal here will transport you to Türkiye for the moment!“

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

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

“Great Somali food“

“It’s a small, cozy restaurant, and I absolutely love their food. Everything on the menu is delicious, and their yogurt drink (a salted fermented yogurt beverage) is amazing. I think it’s fermented. Most importantly, they’re open late, which I love.“

“Very yummy 😋 I ‘m coming back !!!“

“Damn good“

“Best fast food chain, hands down. The food is delicious, fresh and consistent. Much better than similar chicken-sandwich chains. The best thing they have going for them though is their employees. They do an amazing job of hiring. I'm always impressed by how friendly, professional and helpful their people are. The level of customer service is exceptional. Their app could use a little work, but I still use it :)“

“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!“

“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 .“

“Vanak Restaurant catered our event and did an excellent job. The food was delivered on time, beautifully packaged, and incredibly delicious. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and clean. Our guests loved it, and we will definitely be ordering from them again!“

“We have never been and it was one of the best meals we have had! The chicken was so flavorful and wasn’t dry at all. The sandwiches were delicious and portion sizes are not for the faint of heart. We had leftovers for 2 meals! The staff was kind and patient with us as we had a few extra questions since we had never been before. There were lots of people enjoying their meals and it was very clear that this was a local favorite. We will definitely be back!“

“Spectacular Moroccan style pastries and breads. The chocolate croissant was a discovery! Amazing. And maybe one of the best acai bowls in Everett, which is definitely the acai bowl capital of the US. Come and gaze...and then graze this bakery case!“

“Finally found halal chicken near me! I have been looking for it and its amazing. The tender chicken melts into your mouth. Even though I don't eat spicy but this restaurant has all spice levels so you must try this restaurant. The chicken has leveled up.“

“I love this place. The food is amazing, Kafta, hummus, falafel, stuffed grape leaves, bastirma, you name it, it’s good. They even have some kid/picky eater friendly items like chicken fingers that are great. They’re adding pizza to the menu, and I can’t wait to give it a try.“

“They were open on Christmas Day ‐ thank you for that!“

“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“

“The service from the cashier Josh was incredible. He greeted every guest with kindness, patience, and clear communication. I watched him handle pickups, discounts, and even a last-minute order change with total professionalism. For a fast-casual spot, the level of training and hospitality here is always impressive. Great staff and great experience every visit.

The food was also on point!!“

“The food was delicious, the staff was friendly and very helpful with menu items… recommend if in the neighbourhood“

“Very yummy 😋 I ‘m coming back !!!“

“What a wonderful experience! They were so kind as to make me a vegan tikka masala, and it's not even on the menu! That used to be my favorite dish before going vegan in 2017, and this is the first restaurant to ever make a vegan version for me ❤️ I will definitely be back. It was so good!!“

“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.“

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

“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.

“Pretty solid. Fast and fresh. Just wish it was spicier and had fetta and olives. I got the chicken shawarma wrap. Little pricey but very expensive space to rent lease or own so i get it.

Spitting distance from north station“

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

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

“Delicious food along with wonderful Moroccan hospitality. My first time in Boston from the UK. I came to eat after Friday prayers and loved every minute of the experience. I ordered a kebab wrap then was given Harira to try. All of it delicious. I highly recommend this place in every way!“

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

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

“Amazing food! Best Persian food in MA! Clean! Friendly staff. Reasonable pricing.“

“On one of the first days at my company, a colleague took me to the old New York Deli on Temple Street and introduced me to Kadhim. I couldn't understand why he would take the time - it's not like this guy is going to remember me out of all of the people who come through there. My mistake - every time I would see him over the years, at whatever location, Kadhim would come from behind the counter and greet me by name like an old friend. Understand - he was told my name once, over 20 years ago. I don't even go out to lunch very often - sometimes it would be years between visits to one of the Falafel King locations. But every time I enter, it's a big smile and greeting and an expression of appreciation that cannot be faked...go check them out!“

“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.“

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

“When I lived in Boston, I came to their basement Haymarket located Arabic store often. Meats, fish, spices, sweets, homemade flat bread, etc. I went there again 10 days ago and it still has it all. This place is a Boston treasure. Always friendly employees. You should check it out.“

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

“When I tell you that this is one of the best chicken shawarma I've ever had !!! This is so authentic it reminds me of home thank you so much the guy there that is on night shift have great customer service♡♡ definitely will be back!“

“We ordered through uber eats. The food was extremely good and quantity sufficient. Since we stayed in a hotel, we asked for plates and cutlery (there is an option to request for them). But there were no cutlery. Please remove the option to ask for cutlery if they cannot be provided by you.“

“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!“

“A no frills spot for everyday home-style Indian food. I always get the veggie combo and it’s satisfying every time. The food is light and not your typical, heavy, creamy Indian fare, which is much appreciated especially for lunch time. The woman who works there is super sweet! Highly recommend.“

“visitted this place on my first day in US. Their food was really nice.“

“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 “
