World Food & Halal Market

I have one to World Food for over a year now. I get my orders on time, the meat is fresh. I also am able to try a variety of snacks from the South Asian continent. There's a few regular people at the front that always meet me with kindness. If you're looking for a clean meat-shop and somewhere you can try South Asian snacks, definitely visit and buy from this place!

Sad to only be able to give this place only 5 stars. Amazing staff that makes you feel like family. Greatest product selection in Texas, attested to by someone I met there who said they drive from San Antonio just to shop here. Enough good things can't be said. The only small issue is that sometimes the checkout line takes a bit of time mainly because every uncle, aunty, and passer by are always asking about/pitching the owner's son a rishta. Must get exhausting, but still they work tirelessly to provide a one of a kind experience.

Easily THE BEST halal shop in the Austin area. Friendly staff that are always helpful. The guys in the front are chill and actually take a step forward towards creating a positive customer experience that has me coming back there everytime.

The best food market around! Family owned with amazing customer service, they always have fresh, sweet produce with a wide selection of global and domestic brands, love this place! Can’t recommend enough!

Best halal grocery store in the Austin area. They have fair prices. The people who run the store are kind and sincere to their customers. Definitely shop here!

Great shopping experience, great quality products and excellent service. The short guy in the front seems to really know what he’s doing and makes sure all your needs are met.

I have been an Austin resident for several years (things didn’t work out back home) and this is my go to stop for halal meat and groceries. Honestly might be the only thing keeping me in Austin, even if things end up working out back home.

I came for zabiha meat and the owners were very kind with me, showing me around where the shaan masala is, and because i am handicapped the owner even walked around the shop with me, putting grocieres in my bag... great place... great food...

Cute little store, has everything you need to make your meals. Friendly service and clean store.

In Austin very little halal option and World Food and Halal market is best option. I found halal meat and some Arabic grocery

I am a young Black woman, and both of my experiences with this store have been funny. This time, Iwent to this grocery store and noticed that my card kept declining, but I had money on it. Come to find that the cashier was trying to ring me up as an EBT purchase, even though I was obviously paying with a debit card. It wasn't until he actually took my card to swipe it himself that he changed it to a normal purchase. The micro aggressions are wild

We went around all the halal markets in the North Lamar area for halal turkey for Thanksgiving and World Food & Halal Market had the cheapest pricing per /lb on turkey and also the friendliest butchers. The butchers in the other markets were all unfortunately, rude and impatient. While this is not the primary store where we buy our halal meats, World Food & Halal Market is now on our list of places to visit if our primary halal meat store doesn't have something we are looking for.

The owner is very rude and a real jerk . They raised all their prices, their prices are 25- 30 percent higher than other similar stores in the area. Very bad customer service. Go somewhere else.

Bought 2 lbs of very nice goat meat on the bone. Made a delightful rogan josh. Will definitely be back!

Great halal market with a lot of South Asian and Middle Eastern products. Friendly butchers and you can call ahead. Perfect place to stock up on supplies.

I came here on 4/19/16 and was never greeted when I went in but I said hello anyway. I've worked in the service industry since I was 16 and right off the bat I got a bad vibe. I went down the sweet aisle and was stared at the whole time. I'm a 30 year old woman with my wallet out I'm not stealing anything. I go up front with the product and never greeted but asked "am I ready " I said yes sir then he proceeds to ring me up. He runs my card and puts a bag on top of the merchandise and hands me back my card and tells me I need to bag my own stuff. I thought wtf?! I did with a smile and told him to have a wonderful day and smiled. I never got a smile back or a response. I hope it was just a bad day for him and that he doesn't treat all customers like that. Maybe I'll go back and see. I always allow second chances.

We've only gotten goat meat from here, but for that they are awesome! They get fresh meat every Tue and Fri. The butcher is always friendly and willing to help you out.

I came here when it first opened to buy goat meat, which is hard to find. The store is small but boasts a huge selection of Indian, Pakistani, and Middle Eastern foods. I had never made curry and the gentleman (Owner) at the counter led me through different options while they were preparing my goat meat. He was very helpful and when I came back over a month later, he remembered our conversation about curry and made more recommendations. I was surprised. The meat and chicken is very fresh. It's a privately owned business and I make it a point to stop by to pick up their fabulous ginger-garlic paste and fresh meat.

I have been shopping there for over three years now. The meat is fresh. and there is a big selection of groceries. The prices may sometimes be a bit more than, say, HEB.

I love this place. The meat is fresh (frozen, but only for transport.) They have a huge selection and mostly reasonably priced.
