Besan's Market & Restaurant

High-quality, reasonably priced halal butcher — sourcing their product from all-natural, Amish farms. An excellent choice for the mindful cook, but not wanting to break the bank.

On a recent visit, leg of lamb was expertly butterflied and cut into kebab pieces.

The store is a well-packed source of spices, sauces, pickles, yoghurts and cheeses — anything you may want for a Middle Eastern or South Asian meal. Cheap metal bbq skewers in stock.

Very friendly and helpful staff.

Super friendly people working here. My brother bought me some Palestinian zaatar here a few weeks back that was phenomenal. I put it on everything. Today we decided to have shawarma at the restaurant and we were blown away. Pickled red cabbage on top of flavorful, perfectly cooked chicken shawarma, laid on a bed rice—which featured an excellent texture and teemed with saffron. The little side salad and hummus had generous sprinklings of sumac. Fresh and delicious. We will be back!!

I enjoyed the variety .of the middle eastern food they offered. Very reasonable prices.
Very Delicious food after I tried it. One of the best.
Coming back for sure.

Excellent customer service, very fresh products...all what need from middle east products...very fresh halal meat.
Recently they opened great deli for middle east food ( falafel ..shish kabab...shaworma..etc..)
The deli is very very clean and new equipment..
I personally recommend to anyone want to enjoy hala food ...

Nice service and high quality items. Price is reasonable too.

My boyfriend & I decided to walk more often since we’ve moved closer to San Mateo Ave. We’re taking turns on choosing what place we’ll go to eat.

This time it was my boyfriend’s pick. He chose “Big Joe’s.”

He has a watch watering Burger 🍔 with side salad 🥗 . I had scrumptious avocado 🥑 BLT 🥪 with side salad 🥗. Both were very delicious 😋.

Big Joe’s is here to stay on our yummy 😋 list.

Nice market with nice owner and great selection of International foods including lots of yummy baklava!

Friendly staff, a lot of unique products.

The owner is so kind, he always greets me when I come in and when I return to the register. The butchers in the back are always friendly and accommodating as well.

Friendly, good place to shop for halal groceries. May be a little bit of a language barrier at times depending on who’s present. But none the less this is my go to store for all my halal meat, kids treats and pantry items.

The best place in the Bay Area if you’re looking for Halal meats different types like steaks, rib eye, fillets, organic chicken, etc , i always drive 2 hours from Oakley to get all I need from their it’s my paradise to find every international item am looking for that only can be found at Beasan, best halal meat money can buy, and the owner Abo Mahdi give us the best customer service ever, keep up the great work.

Good halal market

I have been shopping at this store for years, it has passed through 3 owners from when I moved to the area but the current owner is the best. They are incredibly freindly to me, even sharing treats from behind the counter that someone's wife brought in. They are always helping me diligently with picking out the best spices for whatever I am cooking and explaing to me which cut of meat I need. Mostly I am impressed with how kind and respectful they are to me. It is a place I go to stock up on lebne, halal meat, dried goods and have a lovely chat about life. Oh yeah, and you can not beat the prices.

Nice market, food from the grill was amazing.

Very good place to eat and shop around.
