Halal Restaurants near Rutherford, NJ

“We love coming here! The food always hits, we come frequently. This last time we tried the chilli cheese fries both with and without cheese, A MUST TRY. We also had burgers #32. Gains Burger cooked well done - came as requested #12. Bacon Royal Burger cooked medium - came as requested. The price is fair for what you get and we will always pay for great quality.“

“Soooo happy my husband and I find this gem of a restaurant! Best Iranian food ever! I don't eat red meat or pork, so I stick to chicken and let me tell you I could eat the chicken kebab and saffron rice every single day of my life I swear!😋 The bread is Persian bread, I can't think of the name, but omg delish! We eat inside atleast twice a week, the restaurant is always clean and spotless, and Ellie is our usual server: she's truly the greatest! Friendly, Efficient and just the sweetest young woman to talk to. All of the young ladies that work there are super sweet. With the world being so crazy and backwards right now, It's really nice to know we have a quiet little spot we can go to enjoy a great meal in such authentic atmosphere!“

“One of the best halal fast food places in Nj.“

“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! 😋“

“Best gyro I’ve ever had hands down! The lentil soup is also fantastic. Highly recommended for takeout! (You can eat there but it’s small)“

“What a beautiful restaurant the food is so fresh and delicious made with love. Absolutely hidden HEM. I will definitely go there as much as I can when I’m up north but it must try and you will not regret it. Thank you.“

“I tried the mix platter and it was 10/10. The flavor was incredible, easily one of the best I’ve had in years. The portions are huge, and the prices are very reasonable. There is plenty of seating, so it’s a comfortable place to sit and eat if you’re dining in. I’m glad I gave this spot a try and will definitely be back to try other items on the menu.“

“5/5
Food, taste, prices, portions. Everything is 5+stars.
We ordered Philly cheese steak, chicken burger w/ fries and chicken & lamb on rice and it all tasted so delicious and cooked to the right temperature and so fresh.
So glad that our vacation in NJ included eating at this yummy food cart.“

“The food was amazing, I ordered the falafel sandwich which was $8 and the chicken over rice which was also $8. Both were well made and the portions were generous. This is a bang for your buck considering how expensive meals are in this area. They even have a green sauce available that they make themselves.

Kazi himself despite a bit of a language barrier is an awesome person to speak to, he is generous in terms of helping his clients out both in pricing and with his sympathy. The service is awesome and overall I would recommend this halal cart/food to anyone out there!“

“The food here is absolutely outstanding. Every dish is packed with rich, fresh flavors that stand out from the first bite to the last. You can tell the chefs put real care into selecting quality ingredients and preparing everything with precision. The textures and ingredients are all consistently excellent, making each plate memorable and satisfying. If you’re looking for a place where the food alone makes the visit worth it, this restaurant delivers on every level.“

“First time trying both the Chicken & Beef Doner Boxes.I was pleasantly surprised how GOOD everything was! The flavourful meats with fresh veggies and feta, with or without sauces, all combined with the unique bread is a great new dinning experience unlike anything else. I highly recommend giving this a try ! We will definitely be return customers ! The ladies were quite helpful and informative about the food and it's history as well as super nice !“

“whether you stop by at lunch rush or late evening, the food comes out hot, flavorful, and filling. The staff is quick and friendly, and even when the line looks long, it moves fast. Prices are very reasonable for Midtown, especially considering the portion size you won’t leave hungry.“

“I grew up in NYC so I’m no stranger to halal carts. Since I’ve moved to JC (which I know is only across the river, but the food scene really is different), I have yet to find my go-to halal spot… until now! I paid $10 for a chicken over rice. The chicken was so juicy and they were very generous with the chicken and sauce. So delicious but also so dangerous that I’m so close by“

“Such an underrated Halal food cart right at the heart of Wall Street Financial District. Rather than going out of your way to a fancy Middle Eastern/Mediterranean restaurant, I highly recommend stopping by the Continental Express Halal Guys.

This is your no-nonsense New York staple, the Halal street food, and they do it very well here.

I got the Combination Over Rice, which consists of lamb gyros and chicken over rice and slathered with that delicious, signature white sauce plus a generous dash of spicy red sauce to boot.

So how does it taste? Like a gushing waterfall of yummy, earthy flavor and spices in every bite! It may look like a relatively small box, but it's dense in taste.

And on top of that, this is only $7.00 cash or $7.95 with card! You get so much for your money and you leave with a full, satisfied stomach.

Finally, the guys working there are warm and friendly, too.“

“great food and great prices“

“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 😋“

“stumbled upon this food truck at 95 Wall Street, and it was such a pleasant surprise! The service was quick and super friendly, which is perfect for the busy Wall Street crowd. The food was fresh, flavorful, and served hot—I could tell they really care about quality. Prices were reasonable, especially considering the generous portions. The menu had a great variety, so whether you’re in the mood for something light or hearty, you’ll find it here. Definitely one of the best lunch spots in the area. I’ll be coming back often!“

“My husband and I went to Forefeathers tonight for dinner, it was excellent. The chicken tenders were delicious, the pink dipping sauce was very good. The chicken sandwich that my husband had to amazing! Coleslaw was delicious, plenty of sauce and pickles. Fries were excellent….definitely will go back.“

“Sadiya was amazing thankyou so much for the amzing service and delghtful food“

“Very nice and clean place to eat from and respectful service“

“Great food!! Extremely friendly, and accommodating staff! When we come back to the area we will definitely be going back here! Highly recommend!“

“Highest quality halal food cart in the city! The owner always treats me right. The chicken over rice is amazing and the spicy/brown rice is the BEST in NYC.“

“Food is great and service is always amazing!“

“Great service!
We both got chix shawerma platters which comes with 2 sides. Heads up, they come with side salad, and we chose tabbouleh as one of the sides. Had we known about the side salad it came with already, we would have chosen a different side. We mentioned this to the gentleman at the register and he offered us another side. We got tzatziki and baba ghanoush! Both were delicious!!

Kudos to staff for offering, this is true hospitality.

Thank you Omars restaurant for an amazing meal and experience!!“

“Great food and service ….“

“I always come here for chicken over rice when I’m low on cash but need a good meal. Always quick, cheap af ($7 exactly. For reference, a cart nearby sells for $12 + tax), and tastes great. The dude is always so kind and make sure the order is served how you want.“

“Great food and big portions. The chicken and gyro are always on point, and the white sauce is amazing. The manager gave really good service and made the experience even better. Super fast overall and solid prices. Definitely a go-to spot when you want something tasty and filling.“

“Great service I recently went because a friend recommended and was not disappointed I ordered the beef gyro sandwich very good would recommend.“

“I’ve tried over a dozen Halal carts in the city, and this one has by far the best chicken over rice. Once you try it, you’ll go out of your way to come here every time you crave halal.

The chicken is juicy and always perfectly flavored and cooked. All ingredients are fresh. The sauces are great, and the red sauce is VERY spicy (love it)

The folks running it are super friendly and the cart is kept clean.

I’m legitimately concerned that once people find out about this place, there will lines around the block. It’s one viral TikTok away from becoming an overcrowded tourist spot.“

“lamb chicken combo plate was magnificent !“

“Good ?“

“one of the best jerk chicken i’ve ever had. its a “turo turo” (point point) type restaurant. all foods are on steam table and you choose what protein and sides you want. the chicken shwarma is excellent. even the fries are fresh cut and flavorful“

“Maged is the best! Love stopping here after getting off the train.“

“Finally some good halal in midtown east! I got the chicken over rice with extra white sauce, it was really hearty and delicious. The chickpeas are a nice touch. Very reasonably priced for the area ($9 as of 7/3/24) and they take Apple Pay which is convenient. Definitely adding this to my office lunch rotation!“

“I usually visit Dave’s Hot Chicken at 7th Ave Brooklyn.
This time we went so late that it was just 40 minutes left in closing and they had put all the tables and chairs away (means the dine in was closed already) but the girl at the counter was so nice that she not only allowed us to take the chairs and sit but also suggested us to rate them on app to get a free drink (everyone loves free stuff..right??)
The food and atmosphere is always always so good. We love to go there at least twice a month (as far from our place). Highly recommended especially if you are looking for some good halal food.“

“It’s best to eat from kazi food it’s great taste ? and best price . And very quick quality service and very clean and reliable halal food in that side . I love ❤️ to eat again and they are very friendly and give lots of food

Vegetarian options: It’s up to everyone what they want it

Dietary restrictions: It’s depends on each person how they want it

Parking: All is great if you need take out no need much time they are very fast

Kid-friendliness: They make you feel happy because they know how to make customers feel good with to much food and one person eat very well and feel full

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes it’s nice for wheelchair accessible“

“Had to find a new place to eat halal after a bad experience at the 2nd Ave halal guys. The food here was way better and cheaper. You can't go wrong with Farook's. Also he provides a a loyalty card that gets you a free meal after 10 purchases. If you like spicy I recommend the green sauce and red sauce.“

“Their kitchen creates tastes that seem impossible! No matter what I order, it's always great. I can't recall the last time I was treated this well. Sensible pricing, attentive service, and delicious meals offered. I'm planning to come back when I'm nearby.“

“Not sure why negative comments , I have been coming here for a couple weeks now and the food is amazing and fresh they even make the buns fresh. My favorite is the grilled chicken sandwich. The staff is also very nice“

“Best food truck in JC, clean and generous staff .“

“The kitchen creates dishes worth traveling for. They give you plenty to eat at prices that work. The dishes exceeded ordinary high quality. Shah’s Halal Food shows remarkable care toward customers. This spot should succeed in the long term.“

“1st time Me and hubby went there. The place is very clean and the guy is so humble. We ordered Lamb Shawarma and Beef Steak ......take out and had to wait few minutes, Ummm Taste is so yammiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, Also bough Baklava. Surely we will visit again, Thank you.“

“OK, so a beef kebab isn't so photogenic, especially outdoors in the afternoon wind, but it did its job of keeping me sated through a long academic presentation at the nearby Italian Academy. Nice food truck selection for these college folks in Morningside.“

“Every time we come to NYC, Kwik Meal is a must. The food is always warm and taste so good. We typically eat here every night. It’s a great price for the amount of food that you receive.“

“Lot of spots have so so food, this one is not it. Ordered a tikka masala because I walked by and it smelled really good. The owner making the food was really nice and the food was just as good. Strong flavors, fresh ingredients and a fire taste!“

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

“Royal Grill Halal on 44th & 6th Ave is a true Midtown gem (I've worked nearby for 30 years). He’s the nicest vendor you’ll meet and the chicken and rice is incredibly flavorful and fresh, with generous portions and speedy, friendly service. Highly recommended for delicious food and a nice experience every time.“

“KC is the best! Wonderful experience from the moment we walked im to the moment we walked out.

Not only is the food superb (Chapli and Chips Platter), KC's service was top notch! Best in NYC 🎉

Thank you KC for making our night 💖“

“good food .... great price“

“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.“
