Khartoum Halal Bakkal is a small store known for its wide variety of Sudanese and Arab groceries, as well as North African and Indian items like spices, snacks, teas, and lentils. The staff is friendly and helpful, making it a welcoming place despite some disorganization. It is one of the few spots in the area offering halal food, providing good prices for a diverse selection. Customers are likely to return for more.
My go-to local spot for any product from the Middle East or Islamic world. Fair prices (a slightly upcharge for the convenience of going to AdMo and not NoVA), friendly owners, and an ever-changing selection of delectable spices and sauces. Best spot for fresh flatbread too.

Awesome store, includes a great selection of middle-eastern/Levantine ingredients. In my case, I needed black limes which I had never heard of, and they had it! Owner is friendly and helpful. Good prices.

This store is conveniently located near all the attractions on 18th Street. Very affordable and honest business owner. Highly recommended. My whole halal chicken was fresh!
