The Halal Guys open near Manassas

The Halal Guys, a New York-based halal food company have opened a new location near Manassas.

“We are thrilled to be opening our third location in Bull Run Plaza,” said Khurram Burney, local franchise owner for The Halal Guys stated in a press release. “We’re excited to bring more delicious halal food to the neighborhood.”

The 2000-square-foot location in Bull Run Plaza features an outdoor dining space with plenty of socially-distant seating. The restaurant’s hours are from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.

The Halal Guys grew from a food cart on the streets of New York City to a global icon known as the largest American halal street food concept in the world. The food cart was first parked on the corner of 53rd and 6th Avenue in 1990 by three like-minded men from Egypt who came to America in search of a better life.

In 2014, The Halal Guys began expanding its authentic halal cuisine from the food cart into restaurants and now operates more than 90 locations within the United States, Canada, Indonesia, South Korea, and the United Kingdom.

The new Halal Guys location is at 11760 Sudley Manor Drive near Manassas.
