Baraka Halal Market

Nice and friendly place to buy groceries. The halal meat is fresh.

Phenomenal service, well-kempt , tidy and clean store that serves probably the best quality of Halal meat in the area. Extremely friendly folks running the business and they definitely have a lot of respect for their customers. Way to go!!!

If you have not tried halal meats before, you are really missing out. This is the best lamb and goat in the area. With halal meats, the animal is drained of blood when killed (throat is slit). This keeps the meats much fresher and tender. They are also free range animals and antibiotic free. They do not advertise this, as it is part of what it means to sell 'halal.' Halal means the animals have to be bred and slaughtered strictly in this way.
I was raised on this type of meats, and I just can't stomach the lamb in the normal grocer sitting in the blood. Baraka is the best, service is also excellent!

High-end meat specializing in Korean cuts. The rib-eye was so drool worthy I had them cut steaks. They also offer a selection of "garnishment" as a bonus, e.g. pickled daikon. In pandemic times, shop is small, but lots of ventilation.

I generally go there for middle eastern food and spices, and bulgur. They also keep various types of Turkish items, specially bulgur. Several varieties of bulgar - coarse, fine, ultra fine grained (which I have rarely seen anywhere else in Bay area).
Spices for pulao, pilaf etc. Frozen kababs. The shopkeeper was also very helpful.
