Omar's Chinese Halal Restaurant

What is Halal?

In Arabic, the word halal means permitted or lawful. Halal foods are foods that are allowed under Islamic dietary guidelines.

All of our meat items are 'Zabihah' or 'hand-slaughtered individually' by a Muslim reciting the Tasmiya (" In the name of God") and the Takbir ("God is Great") in a very mindful and traditional way—making sure to ask for mercy from our creator and treating the animal as humanely as possible. In this manner, we believe the quality and purity of the meat harvested is much cleaner since all the impurities are diligently drained and since the animal is not under stress. Our guests overwhelmingly tell us that all natural halal meat has an amazingly better taste, texture, and freshness that is far superior to the quality of commercial meat sourced from factory farms which machine slaughter their livestock.
