Alaeddin's Pizza Italian & Halal — Clifton, NJ.

FAQ

Questions we hear at the counter.

Is Alaeddin's Pizza fully halal?

Yes — and the meat is zabiha, not just pork-free. Every meat we serve, including pepperoni, beef, chicken, deli turkey and gyro, is zabiha and sourced from halal-certified suppliers. The kitchen is halal-only; nothing non-halal is prepared or stored here, and we keep the suppliers' certificates on file.

Is Alaeddin's an Italian pizzeria or a halal restaurant?

Both. We're an Italian-style pizzeria and kitchen: brick-oven pizza, calzones and strombolis, baked ziti, chicken and eggplant parm dinners, and party trays of lasagna, veal parm and chicken marsala. The family that runs it is Muslim, so the whole kitchen is halal-only and every meat is zabiha. You don't need to keep halal to eat here; it's Italian-American food made with halal meat.

Where are you located in Clifton, NJ?

We're at 600 Getty Avenue in Clifton, NJ 07011, on the corner of Getty and Crooks Ave — about four minutes from downtown Clifton.

Can I eat in, or is it takeout only?

You can eat in. There's seating inside at 600 Getty Ave, and outside there are tables with umbrellas plus covered tables in the plaza. If you only want a quick slice, the slice counter is just inside the front door. Pickup is usually ready in about 15 minutes, and our own drivers deliver.

Is this the same place as Aladdin's Pizza?

Yes — people search for us as Aladdin's Pizza, Aladdin Pizza, Aladin Pizza and Alaeddin Pizza, and they all mean this one: Alaeddin's at 600 Getty Ave in Clifton. There are unrelated pizzerias with similar names in other states; we're the Clifton and Paterson one, family-run since we opened in Paterson in 1998.

Do you deliver to Paterson?

Yes. We deliver to South Paterson, Eastside, Downtown Paterson, and most of the city in-house with our own drivers — typically 30–45 minutes.

What's the biggest pizza you make?

Our 28-inch party-style pizza — a single rectangular pie that feeds 12–15 adults. It's our top-selling catering item for office lunches and birthday parties.

Do I really get a free pizza on my birthday?

Yes. Bring a valid photo ID on your birthday and we'll give you a free personal cheese pie — pickup only, same-day, toppings extra.

What's your most-ordered pizza?

The Buffalo Chicken pizza, followed closely by the Crispy Chicken Ranch. Both have shredded mozzarella, cubed all-white chicken, and a finishing sauce on top.
