I used this in California, when I was there for a trip, and it gave me multiple options of where to go. I also like how there is no ads and you don’t have to pay for no ads which is awesome! I really hate when I’m in a rush trying to find somewhere to eat and a stupid idiotic ad comes up, so the face that they don’t have any FOR FREE. Is actually amazing! If you’re a Muslim and live in the U.S then definitely download this app! Like actually guys no joke I really liked it and am very surprised that there aren’t more reviews?! One more thing, I love the colors of the app, their my favorite personally 🥰 ### 5/5 — amazing app! *2025-03-22, version 1.0.3* Halwaa is a great app for anyone looking for convenient access to halal food options.

I just look for restaurants near where I want to go and there will be options that are not only halal, but are interesting to try. ### 5/5 — A Must-Have App for Halal Food Lovers! *2025-03-20, version 1.0.3* Halwaa is an incredibly user-friendly app that makes finding halal food easier than ever.

Navigating through the app is simple, making it easy to explore new restaurants and cafés that cater to your tastes. My favorite part though…..the fact that every recommendation has the list of food delivery services that work with that specific restaurant, making it wayyyyyy too easy for me to get an order going right away. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 3/5 — Halwaa user rating *2025-03-19, version 1.0.3* However only restaurants with fully-halal menus are present rather than menus that have only halal options. This would allow for users to have access to more options. Also it would be nice if you could click on one of the tags to view a pop-up of the menu/link to the menu on the phone. And when you click on the question mark for “Discoverable”, the message gets cut off. Could also add some more personalization features to make it more user-friendly. But good beta-version 😎. ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-05-13, version 1.2.9* This app is amazing. It has helped me many times to find new halal spots. Love the look of the app and how easy it is to use.
