How ordering halal works at our halal restaurant in South Seattle

By the Castello Pizza & Pasta family, the women-owned, family-run kitchen on Rainier Ave S that hand-tosses its own dough and prepares pizzas 100% halal upon request.

Say halal when you order. That is the only step on your end. Our pizzas can be prepared 100% halal upon request, using certified meats and separate preparation surfaces, so the kitchen needs to hear it before the order starts. We are Castello Pizza & Pasta, a halal restaurant in South Seattle, on Rainier Ave S.

What halal means in our kitchen

We put four things in writing about halal: meats that are certified, preparation surfaces kept separate when you ask, dough made fresh in-house, and a family-run, women-owned kitchen. If you have a question about how a dish is put together, call (206) 971-0099 and ask before you order.

The halal list is longer than one pizza

Halal here is not one substitution on the pepperoni. A parallel halal menu runs section by section alongside the regular one. As of 2026 it covers seven sections, appetizers through pastas, and every item on it is prepared to the sentence the kitchen publishes: halal certified meats, and separate preparation surfaces upon request.

SectionOn the halal list
AppetizersHalal Chicken Wings, Halal Chicken Tenders, Halal Pepperoni Rolls
SaladsHalal Italian, Halal Chef, Halal Cobb, plus add halal chicken or shrimp
SandwichesSeven, from Halal Chicken Parmesan to Halal Gyro Sandwich

The meat items are built on halal beef pepperoni, halal beef sausage, halal beef bacon, halal beef salami, halal turkey, halal chicken, halal beef gyro and halal beef Canadian bacon. Two of the halal pizzas carry no meat at all, the Halal Siciliano and the Halal Puttanesca. The full list, item by item, is on our halal pizza in Seattle page, and the regular menu runs alongside it.

One halal, one gluten-free, one order

Tables come in split. One person eats halal, someone else is off gluten, and a third is not eating meat tonight. Tell us which items need to be halal and which need to be gluten-free, and it all goes on one ticket to one address. The gluten-free crust comes in medium only, and if anyone at the table has celiac disease or a severe wheat allergy, call and talk to us before you order. The person skipping meat has the Veggie, the Margarita and the vegan Lentil Soup to pick from, on that same ticket.
