Herat Market

Great customer service!!! No one has their hospitality and their kindness.

Great butcher shop, and nice people working there.

I have been shopping at Herat market for about 5 years and I always have good experience with them

We have tried so many halal markets in the Bay Area, even those reviewed on Bay Area Halal Foodies/Yelp and others in the Fremont/Newark area. We miss our regular butcher from Aladdin market in San Mateo, but finally we found Herat (through a very targeted Facebook question I asked to a group of Muslims in the Bay Area.

These guys consistently cut the meat properly. No chops in a lamb leg. Pieces are the same size. A chicken isn’t missing pieces or has extra necks/rib cages.

Many markets precut meat and don’t cut to order. I am not sure what Herat does, but I’ve never had an issue. They are our go to after searching for 6 years. Before, they were only a few minutes away from our house, now they are a half an hour round trip from my house and إن شاء الله it will not deter me. They are simply consistently the best. May Allah SWT preserve them.

I thoroughly enjoy shopping here for authentic Afghan and middle eastern ingredients.
The butcher shop has excellent Halal meat. Their breads are made fresh. I have always been treated with respect. Hands-down they have the best salt to dried lamb meat also known as “Londi!” However it is only available in the winter months.
