Halalco Supermarket, web site, 155 Hillwood Avenue, Falls Church, VA, 703-532-3202 (Metro Trip Planner – opens in new window) [Zabihah]
Located inside a Pakistani supermarket, this place is so authentic it closed completely for the month of Ramadan. It’s probably the most authentic Pakistani place around, truly spicy, a bit oily, they serve organs too. Not my #1 Pakistani place but I will go a third time and maybe yet again. It is recommended for those who want to go the nth degree, not for those who seek mainstream ethnic food. It is best to go during peak hours when the buffet is most fresh. There is lots of Islamic material in the supermarket, it is a very religious place, the people are very friendly.

Halalco is NOT a Pakistani supermarket. It’s owned by an Indian Muslim from Hyderabad. The Urdu speaking staff is both from Hyderabad and Pakistan.
Halalco is a dirty place.customer service is very bad.You go to meat section and no-body will ask for help.They dont have any system in place.Many workers are present but they pay no attention to the customers.
