Disclaimer
Not all venues are certified as halal, and we recommend that users always check with the restaurant before they order.
Halal food is food that is permissible under Islamic law, as defined in the Quran. The Islamic dietary laws require that all food, except for certain types of fish and locust, must come from a permissible source and be prepared according to Islamic guidelines. This includes not consuming pork or pork by-products, alcohol, and animals that have not been slaughtered in the name of Allah. Halal food is also required to be stored, handled, and processed in accordance with Islamic guidelines. The term “halal” means “permissible” in Arabic, and it is commonly used to refer to food that is permissible under Islamic law.
The restaurants on the website have been compiled over many years from our own research and suggestions from the halal food Melbourne community. We have contacted each restaurant individually to verify their halal status and any inaccuracies in the listings are corrected.
We have carefully curated our directory to provide users with the most comprehensive and accurate list of halal restaurants in Melbourne. However, we do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of this information because the halal status of restaurants can change over time. Restaurants may change their menus, sources of ingredients, or management, and we may not be notified of these changes.
We have excluded restaurants that serve pork or pork by-products, even if they also serve halal meats (such as beef and chicken) from the website due to the potential risk of cross-contamination. We do however allow restaurants that serve alcohol and provided users with the option to search “100% Halal” or to use the “Alcohol Free” filter to exclude restaurants that serve alcohol from their search results.
We cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information for the reasons stated earlier, and we strongly recommend that users always check with the restaurant before they order to confirm the halal status of the food. We want to ensure that our users have the best possible experience when they use the website, and we appreciate your understanding.
