Halal Restaurants in Portland, OR

“Old school vibes and amazing food. The owner is very nice and hospitable as well 🙏“

“Houston native, visiting Portland for the second time. Last time we came, we passed by Awafi and didn’t get to try it! This time, we got to chat with Ali, who was very kind and shared that he runs the cart alone, and we finally got to try the kofta and chicken saj. Both were delicious and reflected Iraqi cuisine beautifully. We will be back!“

“Very affordable, delicious food and great, friendly service! ❤️❤️😍😍“

“I ordered 2 milkshakes (1 chocolate, 1 strawberry), fried chicken and fries for my son, and a lamb gyro for myself. Lamb gyros are already amongst my favorite foods, but listen- the spin they put on their gyros should be studied. I HAVE NEVER tasted any gyro so delicious! My goodness, I had to go back and compliment the chef because the food had 0 business being THAT GOOD! That gyro will forever hold a special place in my heart. The fried chicken was crisp and delicious,, and even the fries were seasoned and cooked to perfection. This place and its food lives rent free in my head for obvious reasons!“

“Great food in a nice atmosphere.“

“good portion for the price. also quick service“

“**A Hidden Gem for Shawarma Lovers!**

If you're a fan of delicious, authentic shawarma, this spot is a must-visit! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by the mouthwatering aromas of perfectly seasoned meat. The shawarma is cooked to perfection – tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The choice of toppings and sauces really elevates the whole experience, and the pita bread is soft and warm, holding everything together just right.

The staff is friendly, and you can tell they take pride in their food. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or enjoying a sit-down meal, this place delivers consistently great food at a fair price. Highly recommend the chicken shawarma, but their beef and lamb options are equally amazing. You won't be disappointed!“

“Had the original gyro with lamb. It was amazing. Good size portion. If I lived in Portland I’d eat here all the time. So good!

This place is part of a larger group of “food trucks” so you’ll find seating if you want to sit down instead of taking your food to go.“

“Loved this place! I’m a longtime Portlander and definitely have had my share of great food in this area. I don’t usually leave reviews but this place needs to be shared about. I’ve never had baklava that I liked or ever wanted to eat…this place has baklava that’s got me craving it! Not to mention it was very kid friendly and they provided fast service.“

“Honestly better than I thought. Avoided it for a while because I wasn’t sure and now Im a regular. Very high quality, I dont even like spicy food so I always get no spice and it’s still delicious. And it’s open late so… Super convenient.“

“So disappointed... That I didn't know about this place sooner!! Last night my husband told me he had NEVER eaten a gyro. I knew I had to correct this immediately. So, I started looking for gyros near me. Now, since he's never tried one, I didn't want him to have a bad first experience that would put him off of them forever since I enjoy them so much. I chose this establishment based on very high google reviews (5 stars) and because it's so close to where we live (5 mins). This place has gone beyond expectations! The food is amazing! Perfect blend of delicious spices and ingredients. HUGE amount of food. It was so delicious that I scarfed it down so fast I got sauce up my nose. I'm so happy that we found this little gem. We will be eating here regularly from now on. Thank you, Gyro Grill Kabob!!! ❣️“

“Delicious food!!! Thank you!“

“Wow, such amazing food! Probably 12 tables inside and a few outside. We brought our 1½ year old son. There were two highchairs. I'd say the me u was kid friendly in that most kids live chicken and rice. But our guy loved everything he ate and so did we. Will be recommending to friends and returning. Friendly staff. Good cocktails.

Kid-friendliness: Two highchairs. Food wasn't overly spicy. No kids menu but definitely accessible for the adventurous eater.“

“This was my first visit to Shawarma Express Halal, the food was delicious and the staff were very friendly and helpful with food selections. I’ll definitely be going back.“
