Halal Restaurants near River Edge, NJ

“We went to River Edge branch on Friday night - the music and atmosphere are great.Restaurant is beautiful. They have very good singer/DJ, people were dancing till very late. Food is good too - we ordered lamb shish kebab, fried potatoes, stuffed mushrooms, samsa, some salads - everything was delicious. Highly recommended.“

“Consistently quality, with outstanding flavor. Honest, authentic dishes, and delicious desserts. BYOB.“

“So I just had iftaar with their tikka paratha roll that I had got last Sunday evening. It just tasted so good even though I ate it cold straight from the fridge. 😊 It didn't taste as good when I had ordered it on site. Then, without me even asking for anything, they remade it and gave it to me to take it home with me even though I had told them I was full. 😊😊 The largest portions I have ever seen anywhere, good food, clean, best interior and decor, excellent service. I have yet to see a BETTER or even equally nice place in NYC. 🤍 Jo baat hay. Food makes/breaks the mood.“

“Great food, all tasted fresh and didn't disappoint..we ordered the dinner for 2 that included 4 choices of cold starters and calamari that melts in your mouth and the salad was so good and the mix kebab and koftas over rice was good too..will definitely recommend and we shall be back! 😋“

“I’m visiting NJ (lived here for a long time) and wanted to eat some of my favorite foods. I ordered dinner from port of peri peri and it was perfectly cooked but missing my fries. I let that be known to the restaurant and received a small refund. Next night, I ordered dinner again and I received a large order of fries on the house as well as a discount card for 5% for dine in orders valid for one more week. Amazing customer service. If I were in NJ longer, I would surely order again! The food is absolutely delicious 😋“

The food was fresh and delicious. My daughter who is very picky loved the Chicken Tikka Masala.
The owner Rumi is very nice and told us the history and all about himself.
We will definitely be going back.“

“We were looking for forward on our way back from NYCan stopped by this place.

Although it’s a small location and there is not much seating, the owners are such welcoming and kind people and the food was absolutely amazing.

We ordered gyros, Philly cheesesteaks, and rice platters and everything was great. Definitely recommend this place!“

“I ate here nearly every week while I was in college but have since moved to New Jersey. I still crave it now and then because there is nothing like this halal truck. I miss being a five minute walk away but this alone is totally worth a visit to the UWS. (I saved this picture in it’s own album called “Best Halal of My Life”, fyi).“

“The food here is REALLY good! The service is just the service. Nothing to be talked about. But the restaurant is small and a little cramped if it's too busy. But It's a restaurant. But What can I expect of a restaurant in the Bronx? 9/2 out of 10“

“I recently visited this halal fast food restaurant and had a great experience overall. The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly prepared with care. I ordered the chicken burger and loaded fries, and both were well-seasoned and served hot. It’s reassuring to know that all the meat is 100% halal, which is very important to me.

The restaurant was clean and well-organized, and the menu had a good variety of options at reasonable prices. Service was quick despite it being busy, and the staff were polite and welcoming. The only small improvement I would suggest is offering more drink options or sauces.

Overall, I’m very satisfied and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for tasty, reliable halal fast food. I’ll be coming back again.

The worker service at this halal fast food restaurant was excellent. The staff were friendly, respectful, and professional from the moment I walked in specially Saima. They took my order patiently, answered my questions clearly, and made sure everything was correct.“

“good food .... great price“

“Tried for the first time yesterday, they exceeded my expectations. My cheesesteak was so good I could have ate another. I’m definitely coming back for more. Great food, fair prices, awesome service“

Thank you KC for making our night 💖“

“One of the best halal restaurants in Elmwood Park! Baba Tikka has amazing food every time I visit. The butter chicken is creamy and full of flavor, and the chicken tikka masala is just as good with the perfect spice level. The garlic naan is always fresh, soft, and pairs perfectly with the curries. This is definitely one of my go-to spots when I’m craving halal food near me. Great place for authentic Pakistani and Indian food.“

“The food at Balochistan Restaurant and Catering is exceptionally flavorful, with rich, authentic spices and perfectly cooked meats that feel both rustic and high quality.
Each dish from their signature mutton specialties to rice platters tastes fresh, well-balanced, and deeply satisfying, reflecting traditional Balochi cooking.“

“Just found it on the way to our hotel when we stop at dominoes pizza ,so I just enter the restaurant and order burns road chutney paratha roll and mayo garlic roll and falooda for me and my husband. And don’t regret at all . Amazing food. And having authentic falooda after so long. I must say falooda was actually the hit better than Toronto. (We are visiting newyork from toronto.) very near by to our uncle’s home. So we will definitely stop by next visit to newyork for falooda for sure.“

“نكهات الطعام والخدمة مذهلة للغاية“

“I walked into Halal Cajun Platters and the man who was there treated me like family. I never met him in my entire life and I came in to get a green juice but I didn’t have enough money to pay for it. However the man who was at the counter treated me with so much love and kindness. The food is so incredible and every single thing on the menu is the best food you will ever eat and that’s because it is made with so much love. You will never find a spot like this in your life so many places make a bunch of food but there is no love! The vibes of this restaurant are incredible!!! If you are looking for a place that feels like home PLEASE COME!!!!!!!❤️“

“Great food 🥘 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“So, so good; can’t wait to go back!! I had a pita pocket with a bunch of veggies. The worker went above and beyond to accommodate my and my friend’s (annoying) requests. Planned to get just one sandwich but couldn’t. It’s that good.“

“it was actually one of the best halal I’ve had. I’m not kidding. the cart, Halal Harlem, was established in 2002. the guy working it was a little slow but that’s bc his experienced hands will make your lamb gyro on pita with so much care. be patient and you’ll get the best halal you ever tasted. he didn’t skimp on the meat or veggies. there was onions, tomatoes, and lettuce!! some places give you lettuce and call it a day. He charges fair prices! I love Harlem Halal like I love the M116. with gratitude in my heart and wallet.“

“This place is clean...the quality of the food is better than some of the kennedys ive been to amd they serve you fast....tho they do make mistakes here and there... like forgetting what you asked to put on anything for example tomatoes, onions lettuce ect ect...other than that i would still recommend this place...“

“We’ve been loyal takeout customers for a long time, but dining in at Cinar was a completely different experience—in the best way. The atmosphere is refined and inviting, the service was attentive and professional, and the food was genuinely exceptional. A flawless 5-star experience across the board. We will absolutely be returning to dine in again and again.“

“I used to live in nyc. Since moving to jersey years ago, i have been looking for a place that does Falafel and gyro platters the new york way. This spot is exactly that and no other spot compares! Ive tried so many disappointing falafels in jersey. This one was perfect! Exactly the same as my fav cart in NYC. I used to have to go to nyc when i craved this so im so happy i no longer have to make that journey. Manhattan Halal Gyro has to be one of the most underrated restaurants in northern jersey. The team was friendly and lovely. The prices were insanely good! The quality was perfect. Good vegetables and loved the grilled onions on the platter. The sauces were exactly what they were supposed to be and the falafel was so perfect - soft but crunchy - exactly what i love in a good falafel.

This also tastes the same as the falafel i get when i visit family in the middle east.

So go try it!“

“This place is everything and more. The service is beyond amazing. The manager, Hassan and his team did a great job. The food and service is outstanding. My family and I really enjoyed the food and we will be back. Thank you so much Tribos Peri Peri, you reminded me of Nando's in South Africa. Food was delicious!“

“The best tacos and the best service. Very nice people. They attend the costumer quickly and the food is always nice and hot and super tastyThe best tacos and the best service in this restaurant, they serve you super fast and their food is super delicious and hot.“

“My family and I stopped by for a quick bite after school and were pleasantly delighted with the delicious food, great service and attentive environment. We will definitely return and make it our Mexican Food restaurant going forward. We loved the food and very attentive waitress who paid attention to every detail.“

“Great Persian food... yum!“

“Love this.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect Halal Food NYC – A Must-Stop Food Truck!

If you’re in NYC and not stopping by Perfect Halal Food, you’re doing it wrong. This food truck is an absolute gem—serving up generous portions of some of the best halal food in the city.

Let’s talk about the chicken over rice first. One bite, and you’ll wonder why you ever ate anywhere else. The chicken? Tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The rice? The perfect balance of cinnamon and clove—fragrant but not overpowering. And the white sauce? Oh. My. Goodness. Creamy, tangy, and downright addictive.

Then there’s the lamb over rice—a game-changer. The lamb is seasoned to perfection, with just the right amount of spice to keep things interesting. The rice? Still that same fragrant, flavorful base. The white sauce and hot sauce together? A match made in food heaven—cool, creamy, and fiery all at once.

And let’s not forget the portions—enough to satisfy your hunger twice. Seriously, one plate is a full meal and then some.

Beyond the food, the truck itself is spotless—because who doesn’t appreciate a clean, well-run operation? The staff is friendly, efficient, and knows the menu inside and out.

Long story short: If you see this truck, run, don’t walk. Your taste buds (and your stomach) will thank you!“

“جزاكم الله خيرا على مساعدتكم وتوصيل الطلبات لغايه البيت عندى لما اداره المحل عرفت انى مريضه انا واسرتى ربنا يرزقكم من حيث لاتحتسبوا ولا تعلموا شكرا لزوقكم بصراحه احسن تعامل واحسن طلبات واحسن ملحمه شكرا“

“PIDDE DELICIOUS PLACE IN NEW JERSEY;
I’ve been living in the U.S. for 16 years, and the thing I’ve missed and loved the most is lahmacun. After trying it at PIDDE, I’ve never had lahmacun anywhere else again. At other places I’ve tried over the years, I always experienced heartburn afterward — but never at PIDDE.

It’s a place you can visit with your family and feel completely at ease. The food is delicious, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming.🙏“
