Halal Mkt

This is my go to place in the Cincinnati area for halal meat and spices from West Asia, North Africa and the Indian subcontinent.
They have an amazing selection of beef, lamb, chicken and goat meat. The staff are friendly and will cut the meat in accordance with your preferences — you want medium sized pieces for that Kebab you are making? Or a large cut you are planning to roast? Or whole legs of chicken ready to be grilled? They got it. They have ground beef and chicken, and if you want it they will grind some lamb for you. Occasionally they also sell marinated ground beef, ready to be turned in to Kebabs.
Their collection of spices and condiments is extensive. You can also a find a number of brands of basmati rice from the Indian subcontinent.
They also sell drinks like ayran (flavored yogurt drink) and non alcoholic beverages like laziza. I recently found beef bacon and I am excited to try it.
I hosted two dinners for my coworkers (around 20 people) and you need a very accommodating butcher to have your back to pull it off. Halal Market did and everyone loved the kebabs, both times.

This place is a hidden gem, it seems that only the locals know about it, maybe because of its hidden location? I’m not sure why but it easily connected to I-​75 so it’s great spot to hit up for a quick lunch or dinner, I highly recommend the chicken shawarma, the chicken is spiced just right and finished off with a tasty garlic sauce that many restaurants seem not to do it right. I also like their baked foods, such as the cheese and meat, and Zat’aar. Will come back if in the area again :)

Great to find this store so close to home!
Good choice if pita and naan. Butcher section.

A solid choice. All of the food was good and the prices are unbeatable. 3.99 falafel 1 dollar deserts 4.99 wraps. The Falafel was my favorite best I’ve had in cincy. A hidden gem

This is such a great place to find something new. It is situated in a strong Muslim community and as such stocks authentic products from the Middle East. If you need something interesting you should definitely talk to the butcher in the back. This is also where you can satisfy your sweet tooth at the little café.
Everybody is friendly and their hookah supplies are really cheap.

Great little international grocery. They carry lots of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean ingredients including some Bulgarian items. They have a good Indian section as well. They also have hookah supplies at very decent prices.

Owner — Excellent personality — cares about his customers!
The food is Excellent. There is not one thing on the menu that isn’t good!
Lamb is delicious, chicken is great, the Tabooli salad is abundant and tasty!
I like the fact that though I am not familiar with Middle Eastern food, there is nothing that Halal makes in their restaurant that I need to wonder about — all the food is fresh and looks like what it is supposed to be — no mysteries!

Halal Market also has Laziz Bakery and Café as its restaurant arm. The market itself serves up a combination of both dry and fresh grocery that apparently is enough to serve the large Muslim population around this area. They have many different brands of tahinis, roasted eggplants (for your own baba). A particular highlight is their extensive selection of baklavas. Oh yeah, they also have one of the most diverse collections of hookahs I’ve seen in a while.
There is a butchery in the back where they sell fresh halal meats (hence, Halal Market). Their frozen sections has a fairly large selection of labnehs, yogurts (of both cow and goat), and frozen entrees including kebabs, samosas, and meatballs. Various bread offerings (pita, naan, etc.) round out the grocery selection.
On the restaurant side, they have a simple menu composed of beef/​pork/​chicken shawarmas and fatoosh salads. Alternatively, you can get rice or fries as a side. But why would you get fries when there’s so much more authentic stuff available? They also serve up the only liver sandwich around. Cheap, fast, and the service is exceptionally friendly.
All in all, this is one of our favorite places in the West Chester area.

I have been trying to expand my horizons and show my palate that there are other amazing dishes in the world besides the norm. Halal Market did not disappoint. I wasn’t sure what to expect when walking in because it was a market/​deli/​restaurant all in one. Many of the things on the shelves looked interesting even though I didn’t know what they were, but if I had any questions the staff were incredibly friendly and helped me along the way.
I tried a couple different drinks out of the cooler section and I found that I really liked the bitter cherry drink and the papaya drink in the cool shaped bottle!
After wandering around and taking a mental inventory of the yummy looking sweets by the cash register I headed over the restaurant. I decided to try the sampler appetizer because it would allow me to try a few different things. They make it all fresh to order so it takes a bit, and gives you plenty of time to wander around. When my sampler was ready they called my name, and I was ready to try baba ganouj, hummus, Labneh & Falafel.
When I ordered it I had no idea what any of it was. When he handed me the bag I was surprised to see so much food. I had my container and 2 large pieces of pita bread. I opened the container and realized that the pita bread was for dipping into the baba ganouj (Roasted & Smoked Eggplant purée.), hummus (Mashed chick peas blended with Tahini), and Labneh (Strained yogurt, mint.) My personal fave… yum!!! The box also included Falafel which are fried beans and vegetable patties. Also fantastic.
The prices are very good for all that you get, and as far as lunch goes I think they are much cheaper than your typical sit down restaurants or even many of your fast food places, and the quality of the food is much better!
This place is a little hidden, so you may not even know it’s back there! But if you are going into the Meijer drive in take a left at the stop sign and it will take you to the plaza. Go check it out, you may have a new favorite lunch spot! Your welcome!

I go there once or twice every month. It’s my main source of middle eastern food. They got every thing you need in grocery. The restaurant is the best around that area. I like their shawarma very much, fresh, juicy and so testy. And the grill selections are excellent. In short, if you’re around this area you don’t wanna miss it.

They got a great Halal meat selection. The place is stocked and always busy. So you know everything is fresh.

This is middle eastern market featuring Halal foods (halal is to muslems what kosher is to jews). While the food is from all over the world, most peoples favorites are in the middle eastern section. They have an excellent selection of fresh pita, lamb & goat in the meat market, canned hummus, baba ghanouge, halvah and a bunch of sweet bakery items. Their prices are much cheaper than the chain grocery stores. The staff will answer questions if you don’t understand the labels. They are friendly to everybody (I’m Christian), so don’t get paranoid.
