I don\'t think this place is halaal. I asked the cashier if the food was halaal and she had a confused look. She brought Alber, who looked like the owner, and he said only the chicken is halaal. Given the other posters said the beef was halaal I\'m calling it- nothing is halaal. They also sell wine and beer which kinda seals it.

I gave \'em a phone call, and the person that picked up said that the food is halal for all items. It says \"halal\" on their boxes of meat, I was told. I don\'t have any reason to think otherwise, so I went. Got the gyro platter, and it was good, it\'s a bit pricey though. Will come again and try out different things. Note that the phone number is wrong on this site. Their actual phone number is (310) 603-2203 .
