Halal Restaurants near College Park, MD

“The owner is phenomenal and super kind and charismatic. He makes the place feel like home and the employees are all sweet and smiles. The food is great and they have added lots of options. The nashville chicken sandwhich is my favorite thing here but if you want something healthy I recommend the chicken over rice. 10/10 reccomend spot to check out especially if you’re hungry late at night!“

“I like their food, but they should make drinks mandatory with orders. Sometimes, for some reason, even if you select a drink, it doesn't appear on the order. And when you ask for it, they don't want to give it to you. And even when they have given it to me, they do it as if it were a courtesy. It's included in the price. If you explicitly say you don't want a drink, that's fine, but it's not always like that. And some employees should be more courteous in these situations.“

“After traveling from Texas and being tired and hungry we found this place on Google. The overall experience was absolutely amazing. The owner was wonderful and very helpful, he went out of his way to help us with the menu.

Our food was so full of flavor and authentic. Our taste buds were dancing with joy. It was wonderful to be able to enjoy our food with high expectations and not be disappointed. With young kids who can be picky, they loved their food and asked to good back again.

The food was packaged wonderfully once we return to our hotel the food and everything was in place and fresh. This is a virtual kitchen so there is no seating area but your food is prepared for take away and it was not all over the place. They really take their time to make sure your food is prepared and package well for your enjoyment.

What we had :
Garlic Naan, Combo Over Rice
Strawberry Lemonade Green Tea
Passionfruit Green Tea
Quesadilla with Chicken
Regular Rice
Salsa Roja
Mango Green Tea
Sour Cream (on the side)
Kabob Roll

Everything was absolutely amazing, you will not go wrong with this place.

Kid-friendliness: Our kids were very hungry and tired after a long travel day and the owner gave them a some chicken over rice while we waited for our food. He really extended kindness to them and we greatly appreciate it.“

“Granted I haven't been to their restaurant locations, their pop-up location that features their food truck in Forestville Plaza is where my mom was blessed to bring some of their food home for the family to try. Quick story, one weekend I was driving by with her in my vehicle and suddenly we smelled a delicious aroma as well as saw smoke coming from the grill. She noted the place in her mind this weekend she was able to venture there. She relayed that they had a good amount of customers ordering food but the personnel was so patient, kind, and helpful. She brought home some grilled chicken, lamb, jollof rice, macaroni and cheese, and green beans. Majority of the meat and jollof rice was in one container, but altogether enough to feed a family of three people with huge appetites. Everything was delicious, but my favorite was their grilled chicken! It paired nicely with their mustard sauces, especially the hot mustard sauce! They also have The most unique and delicious joloff rice I've ever tasted in my life! The taste of Senegal cannot be compared! I've tried other West African food, but Senegalese food stands out like no other! Originally, Ivorian food was my favorite, but now I can add Senegalese food to my new list of favorite West African food! You have to try it - you won't regret it! I look forward to going to one of their restaurant locations!“

“Unique, tasty, affordable, convenient cuisine!“

“At first we were a little surprised to be eating in a Days Inn -- and Al-Madani is unassuming atmospherically. However, the food was flavorful and delicious (aloo palak, lamb tikka kabobs, garlic naan), and the staff were wonderfully kind and caring. I feel like this is a hidden gem and hope many more people find them and that they get lots of business!“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“the place halal restaurant has excellent services and delicious food, great and fantastic quality I recommend everyone to check it“

“Everything about this place was great. The staff were kind, the space was clean and welcoming, and the service was quick and smooth. You can tell they really care about what they do. The whole experience felt thoughtful and well-run from the moment I arrived. I’ll definitely be back and would happily recommend it to others!“

“Very convenient and tasty, owners are very nice and willing to customize sauces, spiciness etc. I got the combo on rice and they basically gave me 2 meals worth in a nice microwaveable container. Cart is open till pretty late and located right outside the metro.“

“During my weekend stay in Washington DC I was able to visit the New York Grill twice.

Both times the food was IMMACULATE! I highly recommend the Lamb Gyro, and the fries were very good too!

Even with roughly a 20 Minute walk back to my hotel, the food comes out hot, and well wrapped, allowing the heat to stay within and keep your food warm for quite a while!

Overall, this was my favorite place we ate over the course of 3 days, out of about a dozen spots.

I DEFINITELY Recommend the New York Grill! Please patronize this great establishment, hell go 3 times a day if your budget allows!

I'll certainly miss the NY Grill while I'm back home in Western PA.“

“Honestly, we weren’t expecting much here. It feels more like a club café next to the basketball gallery than a restaurant. You know, the kind of spot where students grab a quick bite after a game. So yeah, I was ready for bland food or maybe even leftovers.

But wow, we were so wrong. Everything is halal, the lady at the front not only took our order but made the sandwich right in front of us. The fries? Insanely good. The sandwich? One of the best we’ve had. Before leaving, she even surprised us with her special Baklava, which was the sweetest touch.

Sure, the seating could use some love and a good clean-up. But honestly, I’d still give this place 5 stars, just for her warmth and kindness. She looked so happy when we told her how much we loved the food, and that made the whole experience even better.“

“I went to a Friendsgiving Saturday November 15, 2025 and everyone that was invited had to bring catering. And let me tell you, man did I I hit a home run with Shah’s Halal Food! 💯🗣️😋 the food was delicious and it was gone within an hour lol I ordered chicken, lamb, rice and veggies the very same day and the manager was caught off guard when I told him that I needed within a couple of hours lol the manager and his staff very friendly and professional, even gave me extra sauces and gave me a free soda 👍🏽👌🏽 I truly thank these guys and would recommend them to anyone for any catering service, thanks again Shah’s Halal, until next time 🤛🏽👊🏽“

“Lamb chops steak is delicious! The fried potatoes were delicious! Brusselsprouts with fruit jam sweet and appetizing! His family's Pitabread can continue indefinitely“

“Chicken and lamb combo over rice with chickpeas is delicious! You can tell this food is made with love. Those chickpeas are the best I've ever had! Most food trucks make my tummy a bit unhappy, but not this one! Plus it feels like a good way to spend my money. Supporting local hardworking kind people while getting a delicious meal out of it is a win/win for me!“

“Delicious fresh food, beautiful presentation. Wonderful attentive staff, highly recommend. We will definitely return to enjoy an evening with music of Friday, Saturday or Sunday. Thank you very much.“

“Good food and good service“

“It's about time I gave you guys credit! I love coming here for a late lunch after class. Delicious food, great value, always fresh, and the portions are generous. It's one of the top food places in Silver Spring without a doubt. I love this style of food, it's so good. It used to be hard to find this type of halal food in the area before they opened. If you want some classic New York style cart food they got it. 100000/10 now I'm craving it, lol. ALSO they serve you fast which is a bonus when you're really hungry“

“I LOVE their wings. Way better than Wingstop in my opinion“

“I ordered delivery and the food was REALLY good and I had no problems. When I tried to call the restaurant to give positive feedback, the person on the phone didn't care and hung up.

Good food..bad customer service. Only dropped overall rating one star.“

“Awesome“

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

“I believe there used to be a different restaurant in this spot, but I visited this one a while back and found the food just as delicious as the previous place, even though it’s a different menu. The portions and prices were reasonable, and I appreciated the polite service from an older gentleman.“

“This place is delicious. We only had a few days in DC, so we had to be selective where we ate. I don't think I've ever had straight Afgan food, but this place didn't disappoint. About 1/3 of their menu is vegan. They were very accommodating for vegan food, they made modifications even without asking.

If you are vegan, don't miss this gem if you are in DC.“

“Very nice shopping center for ward 7 🫶🏿“

“Indochine Express – Our Go-To Chinese Spot for Over a Decade!
We’ve been loyal customers of Indochine Express for more than 10 years, and we simply won’t eat Chinese food from anywhere else. We’ve tried many places over the years, but nothing compares to the delicious, fresh, and high-quality meals they consistently deliver.
Whenever we crave Chinese food, we’re more than willing to drive an hour just to enjoy their amazing dishes — that’s how good it is! Their staff is always warm and welcoming, greeting us like family every time we visit. It’s more than just a restaurant to us now — it feels like home.
We truly hope they consider opening more franchises so more people can experience the incredible food and service they offer. Highly recommended!“

“Outstanding , 5 star, best fried chicken !Not oily or greasy, just Great taste and local place, try it out!“

“Wanted to try something new during birthday excursion. redditors recommended this place. finding out that they had a buffet helped me ensure I'd definitely find something I like. but I actually loved EVERYTHING they had in their buffet once I got there. had multiple plates. If I lived closer, it would've been a regular spot for me. hope to visit again soon. would recommend to anyone.“

“My husband and I are from out of town. once we tried Maiwand Grill, we make sure to stop by almost everytime we cone to Baltimore. Everything we have had from here is top quality and delicious.“

“Excellent food. Loved the options that were given and many choices to pick from. 10/10“

“I highly recommended this place. atmosphere is cozy food is delicious!“

“This is my favorite spot all halal & no pork! Them calzones are on point everytime!!!!“

“Authentic Indian cuisine served with care—RASA never misses. A flavorful escape right in the neighborhood.“

“Fresh, flavorful curries in large portion sizes! I’ve tried their paneer masala with a side of potatoes and cauliflower and roti - which is essentially a full-sized Indian meal, for under twenty. Their samosas and mango lassi were also quite filling and delicious.“

“The pizza sauce is superior and the meat is pork-free, for those who have dietary restrictions. I haven't ordered anything I didn't like. Even the banana pudding was good.“

“Absolutely delicious! It's like Chipotle but for Indian flavored cuisine. Delicious flavors and hearty portion sizes. I love the vegan option of the Cauliflower Quinoa Bowl. Service was also very friendly. I ended up eating here like 4 times while in town for a conference because it was so delicious!“

“Very pleasant experience at this family owned place. Lots of parking spaces, spacious seating arrangements. Neat and clean.
Let’s talk about food. We order the hot & sour soap to begin with and it was delicious. Serves 3 people easily. Sesame chicken was delightful marinated and seasoned. Beef chili was great too.

Highly recommend halal Chinese restaurant“

“Visiting DC for the weekend and had to look for some halal Chinese food. As a houstonian, I’m picky about my food choices. Oh my god I’m so happy to have tried New Dynasty. Mom and pop shop run by a husband and wife. They’ve been open for 30+ years. Such a sweet couple and so kind. The food came quickly and it was all so delicious. It was so good I had to DoorDash it the next day. Definitely will be back if I’m back in the city!“

“My daughter had a graduation cake from Sweet Tooth Cakes and Pastries. when I tell you this cake was delicious, light, flavorful and looked beautiful!! it was all of that and more!!! The cake actually made me happy!!! Thank you Sweet Tooth for adding more joy to an already joyful day!!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜“

“This was my first time ever trying Dave’s Hot Chicken. I was originally planning to try the Rockville location, but since they didn’t have online ordering, I ended up taking a few buses to the Silver Spring location instead. Honestly, I’m glad it worked out that way.

I ordered Hot, and while the flavor was good and the chicken was juicy, it wasn’t spicy at all for me. If you’re into real heat, you’ll probably want to go Extra Hot or higher. Overall, solid food and a good first experience.“

“Both the service and food were outstanding 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟The spicy miso soup was delicious, and the noodles were incredibly chewy. I loved it!“

“Before trying Sacrificial Lamb, I recall walking past the restaurant many times while they had a banner up touting their naan as the best in the city. Hard to believe, given the size of the place, and abundance of quality Indian cuisine in the DMV. Over a period of several years and many dishes, well beyond the best Naan, I’m a believer. They have all the essential dishes you’d expect and they’re tasty but the curry dishes are exceptional. Whoever is making the sauces has serious skills. Mackni, Korma, masala, vindaloo, all delicious with abundant portions and quality components. Rich flavorful sauces that don’t separate and seasoning that is layered and surprising. Excellent vegetarian dishes too. Aloo gobi was a favorite. Even this basic dish had a bit of a sauce to it. They also catered to my dietary restrictions without issue. One recommendation— order later in the day. It seems the sauces and seasonings only get more enjoyable as the day evolves. Take out is done well, with sizable portions and seemingly no lost quality. Don’t miss the naan. It’s extraordinary and was always delivered warm. They also do naan wraps which are exceptional late night. Dip a wrap in the Mackni sauce, so decadent. I recently moved and have not been able to replace this little gem.“

“Door Dashed it for the first time last night. Yummy and enough for 2 meals for me. New fan!“
