I called before I went to verify if it was Zabiha and they informed me that their meat (chicken) is machine slaughtered. I had their waffles and it was yummy.

Awesome informal dining. We had a party of 10. Luckily tables were available for sitting down. Most folks were carrying out. Donut shop also in the same space. Chicken, Waffles, sandwich, and fry options were all amazing! Friendly staff.

I loved this place. Possibly the best chicken sandwich I\\\'ve ever had. There\\\'s a fluffy lightness / an airiness to the chicken I\\\'d never experienced. Absolutely delightful. It\\\'s the definition of a hole in the wall, tucked away in a strip mall , sharing a space with a donut shop.\r\n\r\nAnd the menu is simple, but excellent. They have chicken and waffles and spicy chicken sandwiches, among other things. The spicy chicken sandwich was excellent. \r\n\r\nBest of all, to me, it\\\'s proudly halal, with a \\\"halal\\\" sign prominently featured on their menu. Definitely recommend to all in the area!
