Al Forat Market

Very tasty meat. Great service. The meat is soft and the marinade is very tasty. I often buy lunch here.

Really really solid (halal) chicken kebabs at such nominal prices. I'm rating it 4 for the food and taste but it's absolutely 5 for value for money. Prices have increased slightly from the menu listed last on Yelp (by around 50 cents) but incredible value, no kidding. For the price, you get the kebab and a whole lavash bread with it. Probably not enough for a whole meal but accompanied with some additional carbs, it's a perfect post workout meal at a great price. Marination is good, it's a little mild for me at times from whatever I've tried thus far but that's totally okay. I've tried the chicken kabob, the chicken skewers and the spicy Lahori chicken tikka and I'd rate all of them 4/5. The halal chicken was good, tender enough. Usually the oil falls off on the lavash bread and the bread becomes a little soggy which actually makes it taste good. They sell rice separately but I've never gotten that.Order ahead because they typically take 25 minutes to have it ready and also don't take order 30 minutes before closing, so don't leave it too late. Cash discount so carry cash if possible. Parking available outside.It's inside a supermarket so it's only takeout of course. I've never shopped at the supermarket itself, only been here to pickup the halal food. I think it's family owned. I will keep coming back for those post workout pickups

One of the best kebabs in bay area. They make all kebabs fresh to order inside in their kitchen and is super affordable. Dining restaurants charge $35 for the amount of meat you can get for $10-12. They also give free bread with the kebabs. Absolute gem. Parking is limited.Only one feedback i want to add is for them to add mint chutney on side.

Super tasty kabobs. Koobideh kabob was well spiced and expertly grilled. Veggies were fantastic. Rice was undercooked, which can happen sometimes -- might have been an off day. They don't offer hot sauce, but luckily the grilled tomatoes were big and juicy enough to accompany the kebab so it wasn't dry. Take out only. Ordering by phone was seamless and my food was ready when I arrived 15 min later.

We stayed next door and my BF read great reviews on this market. We picked up 1 ground meat kabob and 2 grilled chicken kabobs for dinner. They were served with flatbread. The meat was seasoned and cooked perfectly. We had enough left over for lunch. Really inexpensive for quality and quantity. If I lived here, I think I would be here everyday!

Al Forat Market is my go-to spot for delicious beef and chicken kebabs and skewers, especially after hitting the gym nearby. The quality of the meat is fantastic and provides a great boost to my protein intake, which I rely on 2-3 times every week. After all that savory goodness, their sweet menu is the perfect treat to end my meal. They also sell meats and ready-to-cook kebabs and skewers, which is super convenient. Plus, they have most of the grocery items you need for Middle Eastern food. I love coming here and supporting this small local business. Highly recommend!

This is not a restaurant! There is no ambiance! Don't expect service! OTOH, this is quality food prepared well but a bit overcooked. We ordered the ground lamb and beef kabobs that were juicy and well seasoned. The ground chicken was well seasoned but dry as was the chicken thigh pieces skewer. The lavash that was soaked in meaty juices was delicious but because the meat was dry, not so many juices soaked into the bread. So, what would make this better? Lemon slices, a yogurt sauce, crispy fresh cucumbers and cherry tomatoes and green onions. I asked, but no sauces and no greens. I'm sure this is because you order plates to go and accessorize in your home. I placed the order over the phone and found that the person who answered was clear but not helpful. After all, it's a bodega, so why couldn't they slip a lemon into the bag? Whatever!!! Still, a nice experience!

Here's a picture of the yummy halal chicken skewers and veggies skewers with complimentary lavash. I really cannot get enough of this! Great food to eat after the gym!moist, tender and healthy! The owner is there most days and he is very professional and friendly. The store is filled with goodies to try out and it's kept orderly and clean!

No frills setup but the quality of the kababs are very good! Mainly a pickup place.Freshly made - order ahead is better!

The kabobs are amazing and the prices are very reasonable. Definitely add the veggie skewer.
