Halal restaurants are getting more and more popular everyday. We are lucky to have a ton of great ones in Houston, but I decided to make a list of my top 10, so check it out!
1. Elevation Burger
We all love a good burger but can't eat them so often cause they're not so healthy right? Elevation has blessed us with the chance to have halal, healthy burgers whenever we want (literally!). It's open 24/7 as well as a drive thru. The burgers are delicious and you wouldn't feel bad eating it any hour because it's made out of all organic grass-fed beef!
2. Fadi's
The best salads and potatoes hands down! You can never go wrong with just getting a whole bunch of their sides. Their spaghetti is rarely there but when it is, it's amazing. Definitely try their chicken shawarma and ask for it spicy, it's the best!
3. Halal Guys
The location is great as it's central to people around downtown or midtown. The food is amazing especially the lamb over rice! I originally tried it in NYC and fell in love instantly.
4. Bonsai
My forever favorite hibachi restaurant in Houston! The meat is halal and cooked just the way you like it. They add an unlimited amount of hot sauce if you ask and it makes it tastes amazing.
5. Pizza 101
A newer pizza place in Sugar Land, TX that's grown and become pretty popular rather quickly. The Chicken Tikka and the Pepperoni pizza's are the best in my opinion. I love how their pepperoni has a little kick to it!
6. Gyro King
The best mixed over rice in Houston for sure. It originally began as a food truck and expanded to a restaurant somewhat recently. It's one of my favorite places to eat!
7. Bijan
The best Persian restaurant in Houston! I love their kabobs, rice, and hummus. Everything there is delicious and I look forward to going there because of their tea!
8. M&M Grill
I promise M&M grill has the best halal burgers in Houston. Their single loaded with mango habanero sauce and chili cheese fries are so worth all the calories! The chicken torta, chimichanga, and fajitas are also incredible.
9. Thai Gourmet
Definitely my favorite restaurant in Houston! They have the best basil chicken, garlic chicken, green curry chicken, and their cheese rolls are to die for. I literally crave it every week and go there at least once a week to eat.
10. Bismillah
Last but not least, the best Pakistani restaurant in Houston! I actually go there at least 3-4 times a week. Their Pakistani food is delicious as well as their cafe food. The grilled chicken sandwich, kabob rolls, ten chicken wings, and hunter beef sandwiches are some of the best items they serve!
Houston's halal scene is growing everyday and getting better and better! It's a blessing to live around so many amazing restaurants that serve a large variety of food.
