Halal Restaurants near Rahway, NJ

“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“

“I was very impressed by how clean and fast-paced the environment is, and I appreciated not having to wait long to receive my order. Additionally, the food was absolutely delicious and very affordable, which is especially appreciated during these times.

Thank you for providing such great food and excellent service.“

“One of the best halal spots in NJ“

“Really enjoyed the food at Gigi Halal Food! The falafel over rice was fresh, flavorful, and filling, and the burger was juicy and delicious. The portions were generous, everything tasted fresh, and the service was great too. Definitely a good spot for tasty halal food. Would happily come back again!“

“Omg it's been so long i haven't been here, but their pizza is the best and the all the foods that he has it's delicious especially the salads. I will recommend anybody to come here and sit down and eat a delicious pizza🍕🤗😉☺️“

“Amazing and tasty food!! Great service and great prices! High quality meats and chicken, all halal, with proper certificates!“

“First and foremost. Do not order from Uber eats. I saved about 10$ against Uber pickup order, and about $20 from delivery not including tip. The saved money went to spending more here. You pay more for each item on Uber eats.

The food was fresh greatly seasoned (could use more season on the jerk chicken gyro) and the falafel was fried near perfect.

The service was great. Called in the order took my time getting there in about 10 minutes and was ready immediately. I wasn’t expecting it to be but I was happy.

The strawberry twist to the banana pudding was a great hit. Just wished for a little more strawberries. I wished I took photos because all of the food was visually pleasing. The food was so good I ate a container of Jerk chicken over rice with extra meat by myself. Within 45 minutes. I usually can’t eat like that in one sitting.

Also wished for more white sauce dipping cups for the amount of falafel that was bought.

Otherwise it’s a great gem. I hate to say it but I live next to a few restaurants and did not want to try it because of the feedback. As much as I am used to a $10 plate, here was money well spent. Cost about $50 2 drinks, jerk chicken Gyro, 10pc falafel, jerk chicken over rice platter with extra chicken, and a banana pudding.“

“Food is fresh & tasty. Staff are very nice too.“

“Food is fresh & tasty. Staff are very nice too.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Lovely auntie makes the best samosa chaat I’ve ever had! Literally so mouthwatering“

“Mr. Falafel on Halsey Street is absolutely phenomenal. The food is fresh, flavorful, and truly delicious every single time. The falafel is crispy, the portions are generous, and the service is wonderful. The staff are kind, welcoming, and make the whole experience even better. A tremendous spot in Newark and an easy 5 stars.“

“This spot was amazing for family sized trays. We got the half tray chicken and lamb combo + half tray of rice. This was the most meat ive gotten at a halal place and the half tray was more than enough for 9 people as we had leftovers. I highly recommend these trays for huge gahrerings, they accommodated within 30 minutes.“

“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.“

“I luv it I would recommend Juicys💕💕💕“

“I don't give many reviews, but I wanted to share my experience. The woman in the front (cashier) had great customer service... She was very nice and pleasant. The food that they served was nice and hot. Usually places like this serve room temp food or sometimes even cold, but this place actually serves hot food which was great. The food was great, the tables were clean, and I honestly couldn't say anything bad either. I will be coming back to eat here for sure :)“

“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!“

“Love it hot and spicy nice“

“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.“

“My breakfast was great this morning.“

“I tried every single restaurant nearby and i can assure gulberg xpress don’t compromise on taste and quality

Even their butter chicken is actually like butter chicken not white washed watered gravy like others

They make really good food and fresh
quick service

All the Staff is kind respectful and professional
Been ordering from few months
Love it

Thanku“

“Agib Basha is the best! Every time I order chicken over rice, the food is fresh, flavorful, and the quality is always excellent. He is friendly, generous, and always takes care of his customers. Whenever I ask for extra pita bread, he happily gives me more. If you’re looking for a great halal food cart with amazing service and consistently delicious food.“

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

“Humble seems to be the best word to summarize this restaurant. The men who run it seem to have a great rapport with their customers; they’ve been there for 20+ years and it shows. They were kind and accomodating. The food was plated carefully and was pretty taste. My only complaints were putting margarine on my pancakes without asking and the tiny plastic utensils, which left my hands covered in syrup. However both of those go to the restaurant being unpretentious. There’s no atmoshere to speak of but it was clean. I’d eat here again but probably wouldn’t go out of my way.“

“My new favorite spot for the best sandwiches hands down in staten island. The pastrami was perfectly done and bread made it even better . So was the chopped cheese .oh and don't get me started on the fries omg .. nice and crispy hot and no oil residue whatsoever.. keep up the good work guys . Service was a plus btw“

“I ordered Chicken Biryani and Chicken Kabab through Uber Eats. After I ordered , I realized that I forgot to order Nan. So I called the restaurant and ask them that what can I do now. The person(probably the owner) replied , I will add Nan and whenever you visit, give me 2 Dollars. That was really a nice gesture which I will remember and must appreciate(along with the debt on me).
Talking about food, I had eaten many Biryanis in USA but it is one of the best real Pakistani biryani. Kababs were also fresh and tasty. I highly recommend those who want to have Halal and real Pakistani taste, must visit.“

“Love it hot and spicy nice“

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

“friendly Atmosphere good service nice perfectly cooked portion sizes and food makes you feel like Sunday dinner with family“

“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! 🌶🍗❤“

“Absolutely the best food in Staten Island!

Graffitery’s street cart is on a whole other level. The food is always fresh, full of flavor, and made with real attention to quality. You can taste the love in every bite. The staff is friendly, the service is fast, and the vibes are great.

Whether it’s your first time or your tenth, Graffitery never disappoints. Hands down the best street food in Staten Island—don’t miss it!“

“This place is a gem!! a must eat!! We found it through Uber Eats and ordered 1x. It was so good. The portions were amazing. Portions are like something grandma would serve her hungry kids. We visited and now I frequent it almost daily! Homefries platter is not for the faint of heart. You've got to have a hearty appetite or share it out. Grits platter...well...something of a southern treasure! Beef bacon egg and cheese sandwich is always a perfect on the run, goodie! We tried the shrimp over rice and that was nice. Chicken over rice was even better as it had a slight kick to it. And again, no matter what you order, bring a healthy appetite cause you're gonna need it and a long nap, after! These guys are amazing!! Truly! They're sweet! They're efficient! They can throw down on that gril!! Yummmmm Oh...and if you've never had it, their lemon ginger drink is amazeballs!! This place really is a gem in the middle of a jungle 😆 Visit them and be kind! Far too many ppl are not kind or feel entitled to speak to them ill mannered. Please don't! These guys really are good people and their food speaks for itself. Thank you gentlemen for always providing the best!!“

“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. 🍔😂“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely amazing! Halal Connection food truck delivers top-notch, flavorful dishes that keep me coming back for more. The lamb and chicken over rice is perfectly seasoned, tender, and generous in portion size. Their pita wraps are packed with fresh ingredients and the perfect blend of spices. The service is always fast and friendly, with staff who genuinely care about the quality of their food and their customers’ satisfaction. Plus, it’s in a great location in Park Place, Newark, making it the perfect spot to grab a delicious meal while enjoying the surroundings. Whether you’re looking for a quick bite or a hearty meal, Halal Connection is a must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“This is one of the best chicken PLACES I ever been to and I've been in many, great chicken, very clean, employee's are awesome, and they handle your FOOD in a very sanitized way, one other thing they do it right in front of you, and there pizza is also good all around it's a great place to get your FOOD, I guarantee it, 110%,plus tax“

“if you hear anything negative about this place it's a lie! everything they serve its like mama cooked it! finally found a spot that serves basa fish,(fried) my old spot closed, the pieces could be larger for the price ,but it's well made like my old spot! the French fries are real fries,meaning they don't get soggy if reheated! :) the $2.99 chicken an rice, FIRE! an it's filling, but if you're a fat boy like me order 2!:)“

“Awesome food..thank you..“

“This is absolutely the best eaterie in Halsey Village. It's a regular weekly stop for me and they always remember my name and what I order which by the way is simply the best chicken and rice etc., around. The staff are friendly and welcoming in an atmosphere that is open and relaxing.“

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

“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!“

“friendly Atmosphere good service nice perfectly cooked portion sizes and food makes you feel like Sunday dinner with family“

“Great place but your store and a few around you constantly have bums breaking into your bathroom putting guide wires down the drains and all, ripping up the PNC bank right next to you and triggering the bank alarm to harass buildings with older static based alarms all around, this is related to building 55 and a very noisy storm drain at Manor drive and Norman road, thisnis an undergroubd T section that a used in combination with deep earth scamning 2854hz to find gold and silver s r wash that along with a MISSING PHENTYYLIN PACKAGE 4 YEARS AGO.to capture it in these tunnels and other nasty things. Friday 10 am the fun started from. Your store on the 26th and you and your family is most likely being targeted. Don't forget o ly speak with officers in person and when they can presentan id.“

“I got the kabab platter, a drink and baklava. The platter was good, my favorite was the kofta. The baklava wasn’t too sweet but had a faint taste of coconut that im not used to, overall I would recommend this place! The customer service was nice and the restaurant is clean and filled with beautiful art!“

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

“Excellent food. Ordered Chicken burger, fries and friend chicken. Food was fresh, tasty and warm. More than everything, had a great conversation with Mr. Javed while waiting for my food to get ready, who is the owner of the restaurant and a thorough gentleman. Will highly recommend.“
