Halal Options

With more than 3,000 international students representing over 50 countries, George Mason is ranked #1 for diversity in Virginia. With this in mind, Mason Dining is making a concentrated effort to serve certified halal meat following locations.

Southside Dining Hall - Simple Servings station daily. If pork is on the menu at Simple Serving, then a halal option will be available upon request.
Ike's Dining Hall - Simple Serving station daily.  If pork is on the menu at Simple Serving, then a halal option will be available upon request.
The Globe Dining Hall - will serve all HALAL meats. If pork is on the menu, then a halal option will be available upon request.

Mason Dining will make every effort to ensure all meats served at these stations will be halal except for turkey (due to a current supply chain shortage) and subsequent non-halal items (pork, shellfish, shrimp, and scallops). In the event that non-halal items are the only option, a halal entrée will still be available upon request. Additionally, please look for these signs on the sneeze guards indicating whether Halal is being served or moved to another station.

The Halal Guys, located at the Johnson Center, serves "American halal" platters and sandwiches, prepared using ingredients such as chicken, gyro meat, falafel, and rice. The taste has been described as entailing a complex melting pot of flavors originating from the Mediterranean and the Middle East.
