Halal Restaurants near Metuchen, NJ

“Peri Peri Chicken is one of my favorite spots! Their Lemon & Herb and Mild chicken are both absolutely delicious perfectly seasoned, juicy, and full of flavor without being overwhelming. The food is always fresh, and the service is just as wonderful. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and makes every visit enjoyable. If you’re looking for flavorful grilled chicken with great customer service, I definitely recommend giving them a try! 🌶🍗❤“

“Love it hot and spicy nice“

“• “The BBQ here is absolutely on point—juicy, smoky, and full of flavor!” • “Best chicken tikka and seekh kebabs I’ve had in a long time.” • “Grill items are perfectly marinated and cooked just right. 10/10!” • “You can really taste the traditional Pakistani BBQ spices.”“

“Really good authentic halal Indo Chinese food. We got the Mongolian beef, chicken Manchurian and chicken fried rice. Hot and sour soup to start. Everything was flavorful and came out hot and fresh. Highly recommend this place I wish we lived closer to visit more often!“

“One of the best halal spots in NJ“

“I love Chick N Zinger! The food is consistently flavorful with just the right amount of spice. I usually order the Hot Zinger Burger, but the Classic Zinger Burger is just as good. And the fries? Easily some of the best around. Their platters are also a hit and the gyros but ask for the sauce on the side, it gets messy.

The staff is always friendly, welcoming, and provides great service.

A couple of things to know before you go: it’s located just off the highway, so it’s easy to drive past if you’re not paying attention. Parking is limited to about five spaces, and I noticed the menu on the delivery apps doesn’t completely match the options available on the in-store menu board, so it’s worth checking if you’re looking for something specific.

Overall, it’s one of our family’s favorite spots, and we’d definitely recommend it if you’re craving a great spicy chicken sandwich.“

“Amazing food & service ! I surely recommend to try it and you will definetly keep on going again & again ! Once of the best in Sayreville Area !“

“first the place was homey and clean quiet and peaceful second when i first got the platter my first thoughts were hmm i wish they gave me more rice that being said once i ate the food i realize that this was PERFECT QUALITY EVERYTHING. the meat was not just SEASONED FOR COLOR BUT SEASON WITH FOREIGN SPICES i tasted a little bit of some type of curry i could see and taste the seasoning they put in the rice was so flavorful almost its own star what made me rlly say this quality was amazing was the fact that the cold amazing slice fresh tomato were absolutely high quality the fact that the tomatoes were that fresh and the salad was perfectly preserved the white sauce was amazing per most hala spot but there hot sauce wasn’t to spicy it was good enough for my stomach to not act up it came with pita bread which is a nice touch and was a reasonable priced my full rating would be 4.8 honestly“

“Ismail has served very good food and he was very friendly and very polite and very nice and humble and the food he served was also amazing must visit great food and if you go and find Ismail ask about Ismail suggestion if he is service the food for best food“

“wow..Great pleasure to spend time here..I strongly recommend this place..Food was very delicious..atmosphere was phenomenal...Home like taste with generous serving...“

“Stopped by and tried the fish gyro and the chopped cheese. The chopped cheese was okay—I’ve definitely had better elsewhere. The fish gyro was good and fresh, but not quite the best I’ve had either.

The service was fast, friendly, and welcoming, which I really appreciated. The restaurant was also very clean, and everything looked well organized.

Overall, it was a good experience. I’d come back to try some of the other items on the menu.“

“Hempstead location is the best halal on Long Island!“

“I came in and ordered a Dhoom chicken sandwich and some fried chicken and I noticed they had biryani. In my twenty-two years of living I have never seen biryani on the menu of any halal platter/chicken shack place so I gave it a try expecting it to be mid. They are on par with a few of the restaurants in the area with that biryani and it's actually pretty cheap too at 12 bucks. They put a fair amount of meat in there too, like three pieces with a lot of rice. The Dhoom chicken sandwich was actually fresh and had some good toppings (onions, tomatoes) with tasty sauce. The fried chicken was a little greasy though. Even though Piscataway and NB are full of halal places if you're looking for something unique try these guys.“

“Khan Baba Halal Meat & Grill is excellent! The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked.

Chef Rashid was amazing — very friendly, professional, and clearly passionate about his cooking. You can really taste the quality and care in every dish.

Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great halal food and outstanding service. Will definitely be coming back!“

“Our go to burger place, love their crispy chicken burger, look forward to their new milkshake flavors!“

“Food is amazing. Always fresh and delicious“

“Had a great experience at Shah’s Halal Food! I ordered the falafel gyro and it was warm, fresh, and absolutely delicious. You could tell everything was made to order, which made it even better. The service was excellent from start to finish—Nupur was especially kind, attentive, and made the experience feel welcoming. Great food and even better customer service. I’ll definitely be back!“

“best grill chicken platter and zinger love it fresh chicken always“

“I went to Dave's for the first time yesterday 7/5. We ordered through the kiosk.The service was fast, friendly and efficient. Even though it was very busy. I got the x men box. The food was good. I got the mild chicken slider. Mild was the right amount of heat for me. Hot but not to hot. One thing I'll note, each meal does not come with a drink. This is very puzzling. Other than that, we will definitely be back.“

“After a tasty round of appetizers including tangy baked Fava beans, creamy smooth hummus, baba ghanoush and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside falafel, we feasted on two lamb dishes, one of which was perfectly grilled, and an order of couscous with vegetables. I still remember today how great everything tasted. Service was friendly and efficient and the decor included lamps and accessories imported from Morocco. Portions were generous and they provide containers for the leftovers. You can only eat so much! Highly recommended.“

“Amazing food like for real a huge fan of the quality, price and meat ratio. All fresh and flavorful halal meat. The family combo is so good for the price as well. Love telling my friends and family about this place. Plus owner is really nice! Love supporting“

“Awesome place, food was so good, would definitely go again and recommend“

“I experienced very good service from this location one of the very few places which use a pizza oven and they make it fresh they gave me as much Sauce as I required the only problem was that they had a few scraps on the floor but otherwise nice people good service and better food only one bathroom tho“

“Raavi Naan Kabab was a very enjoyable experience overall. The food was flavorful, satisfying, and clearly made with care. The naan was fresh and delicious, and the kababs were well seasoned and cooked nicely. The menu offers comforting, rich flavors that make the meal feel authentic and enjoyable.

The atmosphere was casual and welcoming, and the service was friendly throughout the visit. While there may be small areas that could be improved, the overall experience was very positive. It is a solid place for a good meal, especially if you are looking for flavorful food and a relaxed dining experience. I would gladly come back.“

“The food was delicious, I did not know what I wanted so I ask the girl what she suggested. It was a amazing the chicken was so good . I like healthy food . I will definitely be going back can’t wait to try The gyros“

“It is good to have fried chicken in the house.“

“Chicken platter with all of the fixings for a fixed price is great. Halal guys and other places start to nickel and dime you for things other than lettuce, onion and tomato. We were able to get cucumbers, chick peas, hummus, etc which all added to the experience. White sauce had a nice flavor, hot sauce has a decent kick without being overbearing. All in all, I like the platter more than halal guys. What I didn't really care for was the cleanliness of the seating area. All of the tables look like they are spray painted, secondhand pieces and none of them were clean. Food smears and grime on everything. Would go back, but would probably get it to go next time.“

“Good and best quality Indian Food“

“Excellent food and excellent service. We had the mutton in a large Kadai and it was superb.“

“Awesome food..thank you..“

“Amazing food with friendly customer service. They treat you like a family and understand customer needs. I wanted my mix platter with broccoli and zucchini which is not in their menu, they were able to provide that for me. My son love their buffalo wings dip in sauce and hot wings. Their fried chicken is always fresh and delicious! I also recommend their cheesesteak, always fresh, hot and juicy!

Vegetarian options: They can make you veggie sub, rice with veggies, Mac and cheese and more

Parking: You can park in front of the store for curbside pickup or at the parking lot with many spots to park at.

Kid-friendliness: They have seats where your little one and sit and enjoy their meal, kids friendly customer service.“

“I came here specifically for the HalwaPuri this morning, and it absolutely did not disappoint! There is nothing like a traditional breakfast to start the day right. The Puri was perfectly fluffy, light, and not too oily—just the way it should be.
The star of the show for me was the balance between the sweet and savory.

The Halwa had the perfect level of sweetness and a great texture, while the ChanaMasala (chickpea curry) and the potato bhaji had that authentic, spicy kick that makes #DesiFood so addictive. Mixing the sweet halwa with the spicy gravy on a piece of hot puri is a total #Foodie dream!“

“Drinks so fresh“

“Stopped in for lunch at 30 Burgers, and let me tell you… hunger was making executive decisions before I even hit the counter. Thankfully, Angelina stepped in like a burger whisperer, helping me make my election—yes, election… because choosing between those burgers deserves its own campaign season—and placed my order with patience, warmth, and a smile.

The service was fast, friendly, and refreshingly human. Angelina made the experience easy and welcoming, which is becoming rarer than a perfectly cooked medium burger.

And the food? Let’s just say my burger disappeared faster than my willpower at a dessert menu. Fresh, flavorful, and worth every bite.

If you’re looking for good food and even better service, 30 Burgers gets my vote. Angelina for Burger Secretary of State. 🍔😂“

“It is good to have fried chicken in the house.“

“I have been thinking of stopping in for a while, I came in today for their Arabic chicken Shawarma. It was delicious. Crunchy outside, very flavorful inside. I will come again. Not very attractive photos but it gives you an idea. They have a shawarma sandwich on a roll but I very much prefer like this!“

“10/10 would definitely recommend. 🍔🍔“

“Best waffles I’ve ever had. Not sure what they put in the batter but I’ve never had a waffle that tastes as good as the ones here.

All the other breakfast sandwiches are also really good, and the prices are very reasonable. I’ve only had their breakfast so I can’t comment on their other food.

I’d mostly recommend takeout here, yes there is a seating area but it’s kind of small.
