Portland's Muslim community is small, making halal dining options scarce. While Oregon's Muslim population is around 1 percent, the city does feature some notable eateries, particularly food carts and family-owned restaurants specializing in Lebanese, Iraqi, and Moroccan cuisine. These establishments serve dishes like shawarma and lamb shanks with diverse preparations, catering to both Iftar meals during Ramadan and regular dining needs. The article highlights specific restaurants like a Beaverton Egyptian and Iraqi spot known for its expansive menu and quality halal offerings, aiming to guide Portlanders seeking halal meals.
Many of the restaurant's knockout shawarma carts, particularly those downtown, tend to source halal meats, as do a handful of the city's stellar Lebanese, Iraqi, and Moroccan restaurants.
This family-owned Beaverton Egyptian and Iraqi restaurant serves an expansive menu that covers classics from both countries, with lamb shanks that arrive both fall-apart tender and caramelized with a fragrant blend.
