Halal Restaurants near Lake Ridge, VA

“Just left, great experience, the food was great! I will be back!“

“Very excellent customer service and food was amazing.“

“We were worried getting out of a late meeting and we didn’t think we would be able to find a really good meal with it being after 9pm. We were wrong! We followed our GPS to this restaurant and the place was so welcoming. They let us sample before we decided on our meals and everything we tried was delicious and most importantly FRESH! To get a meal THIS good at this time of night blew us away! We will be coming back and will be using their catering option as well for a summer birthday party! Please try and return for another ! Visit the Annnandale location! And once you’re done with the delicious dinner, please save room for the crepes they have here!“

“Absolutely delicious food -- had the Chicken over Rice Bowl with everything on it -- didn't know what I was getting into, but it was phenomenal. I stopped by randomly after driving by and seeing bright lights in an empty parking lot at 8/9PM on a Wednesday night. Only thing I didn't like -- absolutely BLARING loud music (drake) that I could barely hear the guy taking the order and he could barely hear me either. It was obstructive. I would go back again the bowl was, like I said, absolutely delicious.“

“While visiting family they took me here for lunch, the place is so beautifully decorated and clean. The volunteer who took our order was super friendly and you could feel the passion as they spoke about the business and how their mission is to help the less fortunate. I cannot wait to visit again to drink more of the qaiymoq chai and eat the steak & cheese! 😋“

“I have never left a review of anywhere. But I love Shawarma Taco with my entire being. I was given a sample of my meal as they were preparing it and that sample bite was the best thing that could have happened. And then came my actual Shawarma…Every bite was filled with every topping I ordered. I can die happy knowing I’ve had some of the best food to exist.“

“Halal Kingz is literally the ONLY place I will buy falafel from in Woodbridge. I always have an amazing experience with the staff and Umer is so pleasant, helpful, and accommodating! As soon as I came in, he greeted me and was more than willing to offer pleasant customer service! It goes a long way when you have people who genuinely care about the impression they leave. Umer was certainly that. Much love to the Halal Kingz!“

“Absolutely delicious! We tried the Chicken Crispy Bae Burger, and it was honestly one of the best halal burgers we’ve ever had! Perfectly crispy, juicy chicken with just the right amount of spice and flavor. The bun was soft, sauces were on point, and everything tasted super fresh. 🍔🔥

The staff was friendly, the place was clean, and the food came out hot and fast. Definitely a new favorite spot in Burke for halal burgers and chicken lovers! Highly recommend Khans Halal — they know how to do it right 👏😋

“This place is ONE of the best in the Woodbridge area.

The menu offers a range of dishes that showcase Middle Eastern and South Asian flavors. The lamb was a standout—juicy and perfectly seasoned. The portion sizes are generous, making it great value for the price.

The staff at Shah's Halal is incredibly attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. They’re happy to make recommendations and ensure that your experience is pleasant.“

“This was my first experience with this type of food, and it was good! Very filling, the single protein platter was more than I could eat in one sitting, and I'm a rather large eater. I would go back. However, I would say The Halal Guys are comparable to the Little Ceasars or Domino's of their place in the industry. If you want to play it safe with a commercialized version of Halal food, then this is it. Please don't take that as a negative, Little Ceasars has its place in the market & it's time for when necessary, and so does The Halal Guys.“

“Zaffron is hands down the best caterer in the DMV! They catered my sister’s wedding and everything was flawless.From the service to the mouthwatering food. Our guests are still talking about it. Highly recommend for any event!“

“This is my GO-TO Indian Restaurant from now on. I absolutely love butter chicken, and after ordering from a horrible place last night I decided to call before I ordered from a new place (I really wanted butter chicken this weekend) the person who answered the phone was super nice and understanding, and kept her promise. I can not eat really spicy food, and when I asked for mild she said she would make it happen. I just tasted the sauce and it is Devine. So good, and with the slightest hint of spice (which I love). It even looks beautiful (see photo) this review is also going on DoorDash 🥰“

“My rating reflects my overall impression but it would have been 5 stars if I was rating how this place meets the expectation of a quick street style halal food vendor. I had both sandwich and platter. Food is fresh, simple and good, service friendly and inside was clean. Exactly what I wanted for a quick lunch, and I'll be back for more when I need a quick and satisfying meal.“

“what were some of the highlights at big red halal you ask?? THE CHICKEN.. and the red sauce🤤“

“I like the food and very thing was nice. 2 other staff were very good. The afghan guy and the black girl was very nice to the customers. Only Taha was not a good at the costumer service. He was rude and very disrespectful. They have to fire him if they want their business successfull.“

“Put a lock code for your restroom. Outsiders walk straight thru and occupy restroom while customers can't become of a none customer sleeping inside. And for God's sake. I have been visiting this location for the past 2 months. Fix the second restroom..wth u waiting for“

“Best afghan food around! I am a regular (a couple times a month)“

“the owner the cashier Great. The food was soooo good n fresh!“

“Amazing food and service! definitely will be going back!!“

“Great halal food variety 👏“

“The ma’soob at this traditional Yemeni restaurant was an absolute showstopper — the kind of dessert that commands a moment of silence after the first bite. Rich, comforting, and unapologetically indulgent, it perfectly balanced rustic authenticity with refined execution. The mashed banana base was smooth yet textured, soaked just enough in cream and honey to create a luscious, almost pudding-like consistency without turning soggy. Every spoonful delivered a layered experience — the warmth of cardamom, the natural sweetness of ripe bananas, and the nutty undertones from crushed wheat and ghee.

What really elevated it was the garnish — a generous drizzle of honey and a scatter of roasted nigella seeds that added both depth and crunch. Served slightly warm, it felt like the culinary equivalent of a hug: familiar, nostalgic, and deeply satisfying. It’s a dessert that doesn’t need to impress with presentation; its power lies in authenticity and flavor integrity.

In short, the ma’soob here isn’t just a dessert — it’s a cultural experience. If you visit this restaurant and skip it, you’re missing the soul of Yemeni hospitality in edible form.“

“Great food and great owner but customer service skills from the other staff need a lot of work, very rude staff!“

“Great food! The menu has a lot more options now as well.“

“Yesterday was my 1st time visiting VA Kabob House here in Springfield. Being a fan of Afghan cuisine, I had to stop by as soon as possible. Their $11.99 Chicken Kabob Lunch Special advertised on the window had me drop everything I was doing at the moment, just to walk in and try their food out...and let me tell you....Their food is seasoned and flavored to perfection. Staff is very friendly and upon placing your order, you are offered a complementary plate of their chicken soup which is made from scratch..I ended up placing a side order of the soup and I finished everything on my plate in one sitting; kabob, rice, salad, chick peas, bread and all. I'm here again today ordering the same thing as I'm typing this review. I highly recommend VA Kabob House in Springfield, Virginia. anytime you are hungry, especially lunchtime...

One more thing....I don't really care for soup, but their chicken soup is really damn good and I'm not sure if other Kabob spots have their own soup, but VA Kabob House's soup alone is worth the visit, and is quickly becoming one of my favorite Kabob spots in all of Northern VA.“

“When I need something quick or I just want to eat a good meal America’s best is the go to! Variety, quality and promptness all in one every time! I’ve never had to wait for my food and they’ve never gotten my order wrong. The staff are very accommodating and patient. I appreciate you all!“

“The new Bread options are spectacular!!! There is a vast assortment of all sorts of international delicatessens and treats!“

“Love the Garlic Twin“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ five stars food 🥘🍔🍟“

“I’ve been coming here since 1999, and I must say, this place serves the best Kabob I’ve ever eaten. The food is delicious, and the sauces truly elevate the dish. The service is phenomenal, and they cook the food fresh on the spot. If you’re in the mood for a great Kabob meal and find yourself at Springfield Mall, you must try this place. I highly recommend the chicken—it’s amazing.“

“This Mezeh location is my go-to spot for lunch. The staff is always friendly, the restaurant is clean, and it’s clearly well managed. The food is consistently fresh, and I especially appreciate that Mezeh is one of the few places offering a whole grain base for their bowls. The lentils are also cooked perfectly every time.“

“We visited Mezeh Mediterranean Grill and had a great overall experience. The place was clean and not busy, which made for a relaxed dining atmosphere. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit.

The plates we ordered were tasty, fresh, and generously filled with sides, making them feel worth the price. However, we found the portion of chicken (protein) to be quite small compared to the rest of the plate. We ended up ordering extra chicken to feel satisfied, which added to the overall cost.

We’d definitely come back when we’re in the area again, but we do hope they consider increasing the protein portions to better match the value of the meal.“

“Best Pakistani food in the DMV! The butter chicken is the best!“

“We recently celebrated my son's Ameen at Haveli Restaurant, and I must say, the experience was outstanding! Aaqil, the owner, and Hassan, the manager, did an exceptional job in ensuring our event was flawless.

Special mention to Hassan, who went above and beyond to manage the food and ensure everything was perfect. His attention to detail and warm hospitality made our celebration truly memorable.

The food at Haveli Restaurant was delicious, and the service was top-notch. I highly recommend this banquet hall to anyone looking to celebrate birthday, ameen, or wedding.

Thank you, Aaqil and Hassan, for making our special day even more special!“

“We ordered a variety of food. For starters we loved the veggie samosas with The chutney sauce. The rice is flavored with cinnamon and it will not disappoint. The chicken kabob boneless platter is tender and full of flavor. Our favorite kabob was the chicken with green chili skewer. The rice pudding was so on point we ordered an extra side to go.“

“Les recomendados muy delicioso la tensión ni que decir Carlos el nuevo trabajador muy amable“

“Food was just perfect and the staff is very friendly. The lamb was just amazing!“

“Stopped in randomly for lunch. The ladies at the counter explained everything for us since we hadn't been there before and you are able to order from the menu or eat from the buffet. We chose the buffet so we could try everything and it was a great decision. We loved everything we tried, absolutely delicious.“
