I live in Oak Park and noticed Halal Shop as I was driving towards Broadway on Stockton. I immediately pulled over so my husband and I could grab a bite to eat. When we walked in, it looked very well put together, not like a mom and pop shop, so my first assumption that it was a franchise. The food was pretty good, what you would expect from a small, to-go, food shop. while that is correct, it is in paperwork only. I dug around on the internet to see whether or not it was a nationwide chain. What I found was that it was a two location franchise. That was odd to me. I went in the next day for lunch again, for my husband and I. We got variations of the same thing from the first day that we went for lunch. That visit, I was able to talk to the gentleman running the counter. He told me that the two locations that I found listed are owned by family members. so, and paperwork only, it is a franchise. They started out as a food truck for over 10 years, from what I can gather. I love being able to support local, small, family-owned businesses.
In regard to the food, my husband and I got the loaded fries, which is basically a gyro on a bed of fries without the pita bread. Husband got chicken and I got lamb. The second day, husband got lamb gyros and I got the loaded lamb fries. The lamb was a little dry both times and the fries, after being under sauce, and in moisture from the heat of the meat, weren’t crispy. I know this is a very particular preference, so the next time I will ask for the fries to be very well done so they can hold up under the environment.
What I was impressed with the most, was the customer service, and the freshness of the veggies on the food. I asked about the food source, and they use a Halal distributor. The gentleman shared with me that they have fresh/perishable ingredients delivered every few days. They don't have ingredients sitting in their cold storage for weeks on end.
This was a perfect little place to grab a meal after being at the Med Center or DMV nearby. Highly recommend because of the customer service. Food is decent. It’s definitely mass produced, but it’s better...

Read moreI had an amazing experience at this halal restaurant! From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel welcome with their warm smiles and outstanding customer service. They were friendly, attentive, and made sure I had everything I needed throughout my visit.
The highlight of my meal was the chicken tikka over rice — absolutely delicious! The chicken was perfectly seasoned and grilled to perfection, tender and full of flavor. The rice was fluffy and well-cooked, and the combination of spices brought everything together beautifully. It’s easily one of the best halal dishes I’ve ever had.
The restaurant was clean, cozy, and had a welcoming atmosphere. I appreciate how they take pride in serving high-quality food while making every guest feel valued.
