Halal Caveat

You should always verify the halal status with the restaurant directly just to be sure!

Restaurants change their meat suppliers and their policies constantly.

Furthermore, individual franchise locations change ownership all the time. So one location’s owner can use halal meat but can sell it to a new owner who chooses not to. So, to make sure that you have the latest information — reach out to the establishment!
