" Simply delicious! I had the best feta and herb stuffed grape leaves ever. The flavors took me right back to my trips in the Middle East. Great service too. Everyone was very attentive and friendly, which made our time enjoyable. This is one spot I plan to visit regularly from now on. Food this good deserves to be tried more than once! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really excited to try Hala's after hearing it was a local favorite! The food was good, no complaints there. However, I had a little trouble with the order taking as the server mixed up our requests. They resolved it quickly, which I appreciated. I can easily see why this place has a following. " (*Curated Review*)

" Hala's is a must-visit if you're in the area! The lamb platter is to die for, and the people are incredibly friendly. I also appreciate the market aspect where I can grab some spices to take home. The restaurant is always clean and inviting. Just one of the best culinary experiences in Jacksonville. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful little restaurant and market! The food serves really generous portions, and everything I've tried has been bursting with flavor. The lamb wraps are particularly noteworthy. I even enjoyed browsing their market to take a few goodies home. I will certainly be recommending Hala's to my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Hala’s never disappoints! Their baklava is the best I've had and their service makes you feel like family. I enjoy browsing their market and the prices are reasonable. Clean and cozy spot to enjoy a meal or pick up some groceries. Will continue to visit often! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by Hala's after a friend recommended it and was very pleased! I enjoyed the crispiness of their falafel platter. It was filling without being heavy, and the variety of dips was delightful. My only issue was with the cleanliness of the restroom, which was a little disappointing. Still, the savory food makes me want to come back ASAP! " (*Curated Review*)

" Hala's is one of those hidden gems that you have to try. The spice blends they use in their dishes are unlike anything I’ve tasted elsewhere. I came there looking for comfort food and was beyond satisfied. The only downside was I felt the service lagged a bit during peak hours, but the quality of the food is simply out of this world! Go for the kunafa, you won't regret it! " (*Curated Review*)
