Halal Restaurants near Basking Ridge, NJ

“I tried this restaurant for the first time recently and I was really impressed. The food was fantastic, delicious and flavorful. Everyone from the host to the servers were extremely hospitable and friendly. We started with the naan and lentil soup. Then ordered the lamb chops and chicken qorma. The baklava for desert ended the meal perfectly. I can’t wait to visit again!“

“This was our first time trying PAK and we were very impressed. The chicken and rice was delicious and an extremely generous portion. Samosas were crispy and flavorful. If you love halal food, this is a great spot without having to travel to the city! We will definitely be back!“

“The owners are so polite and kind they make the orders super quick and tasty. I ordered the fat burger it reminds me of the Italian Cheesesteaks I grew up on in Jersey City it was amazing! I’ve ordered from this place several times now and every time it’s been good and they’re open later than most places in the area (10 PM on most days) so that’s a plus for me since I’m a bit of night owl. The portions are huge which I like and their menu has plenty of options to choose from. I love this place and will def be ordering more.“

“The food was great. I have had "typical" Mediterranean/ Middle Eastern platters with similar main ingredients (lamb, rice, salad) but I think Alex generally does it better with essentially more kick. Everything was made to order and the sauce and however the rice or meat was seasoned was great. It had a very tolerable and great spiced flavor.“

“Goat sukka and chicken pepper fry were awesome.We went during the worker's break time (4 PM), still the restaurant is open. The owner lady was courteous. Service was pretty fast. The owner himself was the cook.This is during the month of Ramadan. Owner was fasting, hence did not taste the food. But the mutton biryani and other items we ordered were of almost perfect taste. Shows the experience of the person as a chef.Very friendly folks. Tasty food. Faster service.Definitely will recommend.“

“Popped in here to grab breakfast for the Family based off of my Son's suggestion. It's a small place located not far from downtown Plainfield. It's a no frills location with the typical "Chicken Shack" look. The staff handled multiple orders well without making mistakes. I didn't see them write anything down, they just took peoples complex orders & kept it moving. The food was very good. I watched them make it, & they are NOT shy when it comes to butter. I LOVE THAT! I am not one of those people that will ever say "hold the butter," or "light on the butter." They make everything in butter, lol....& I support that. They are Halal, so there is no pork on the menu, so if you're looking for bacon, you can only get Turkey bacon. We had the French toast w/Beef sausage. Waffle w/Beef sausage, & two orders of Chicken & Waffles. All of the food was good, the chicken are chicken tenders, definitely gotta deduct a star for that, Yes, just for that. Why? Cause their setup they could easily do the "chicken shack" style chicken on the waffle. That would be epic! The food was good though, so no complaints. Syrup is a little weak though. Could be a bit sweeter. French Toast w/Beef Sausage: AWaffle w/Beef Sausage: AChicken & Waffle: B-“

“What an unexpected, pleasant dining experience. We had the experience of a meal that is a true delight.The pleasures that Silk Road provides are many: the elegant dining rooms, the attentive service, and the wonderful food, the attention to detail, and the friendly atmosphere all come together to delight the customer.We had been out on a dreary day, one of many such days lately. My wife suggested we go to Silk Road, that it would be a treat on such a somber afternoon. An excellent choice!We were promptly seated for lunch. No sooner than we were seated our server had a carafe of water on the table. The decor has been done with care, cloth napkins speak to the pride Silk Road takes in its image.We placed our order. We were immediately served Afghan salad and Lentil soup. The salad was loaded with fresh tomatoes and cucumbers, the lentil soup delicious (and I dislike lentils!). Two pieces of Afghan Bread were served shortly after, piping hot and delicious. We were told the bread is baked fresh in house. We could have been satisfied with these first offerings, which were offered with our entree. My wife had the Large Mantu, which are steamed dumplings filled with minced beef, chives, and afghan spices, garnished with dill yogurt. She shared some with me: delicious! I had Banjan, an eggplant dish redolent with Afghan spices. Both entrées came with Naringe Palaw, a rice with orange and saffron, an intriguing combination of flavors. My wife, who doesn't particularly like eggplant, loved my dish almost as much as I did. A true gustatory delight.The owner spent some time with us, his pride in his restaurant and his cuisine evident, his desire to provide a warm and friendly atmosphere makes for a great dining experience. Do yourself a favor: venture forth to Silk Road. You'll be pleased you did.“

“Dinner with the family last night. BYOB but with a liquor store on the same block. Everything was great, food was delicious, hummus, kebabs, gyros, shrimp, veggies were all on point. The lamb was a little chewy and the rice a smidge on the salty side. Service was good, affordable prices with good portions. The bill came to $150 for 7 of us, not bad at all. If in the area, I'd definitely go back.Vegetarian options: Falafel, many of the appetizers, salads, etc.Parking: Side streets if not up front“
