Saad's Halal Restaurant

This is a Philly must stop spot, but when we went this time it wasn't that at all. I wanted a Philly cheese steak but they said bc of the rising prices of steak and lamb, they took them off the menu. That was the whole reason I went there. They recommended a chicken sandwich, which was alright, but not so delicious that it will go back just for another sandwich. We also ordered chicken wings which were good. I don't know what the secret is to getting them so crispy, but it worked. We did take out and they forgot to give us hot sauce so the chicken was crispy, but plain. Like no seasoning, not one speck of seasoning, plain plain. We also got the sweet potato pie, but I think it was a bean pie mislabeled bc there was no sweet to that pie. To sum it up, will I go back, no, not till the get steak back on the menu.

They have amazing beef cheese steak! I travel from DC a few times a year to get some. The addition of ketchup on the sandwich takes it up a different notch. I tried with and without ketchup beef cheese steak sandwich and ketchup is the way to go for this place. I highly recommend as one of the places to stop and eat if you're looking for halal cuisine. What I did not like in this restaurant is the wait time. There was definitely a lot of discrepancy on who gets their food first. I understand a popular restaurant will have wait time, however it should not be 2 hours to get a sandwich. Few of my friends ordered only one sandwich and they had to wait two and a half hours just to get theirs. There were other people that came in and ordered after us and received their sandwich with 45 minutes or less. So I don't agree with their mandatory 15% service fee if you're eating in the restaurant. I understand you have to pass your cost on to the consumers but to force it is questionable. Features:

As far as Cheesesteaks go, the sub was pretty decent. I personally like a little less ketchup on mine but everything else was wonderful. I really liked their Baklava too. Dine in: Yes … More
