Sizzling Chicken Fajita in Side

The best place for a Chicken Fajita in Side is Hawaii Restaurant in the old town, where halal chicken is grilled with peppers and onions and brought to your table sizzling on a hot skillet, served with warm wraps and toppings so you build each one exactly the way you like it.

A Chicken Fajita that arrives sizzling

There is a particular moment that makes a fajita worth ordering: the skillet reaches your table still hissing, a plume of pepper-scented steam rising over the strips of chicken. That is exactly how our Chicken Fajita is served at Hawaii Restaurant in Side old town. The chicken is cooked over our wood-fire and charcoal grill, tossed with sweet peppers and onions, and carried out to you the instant it is ready — so the sizzle is real, not for show.

Alongside the skillet come warm soft wraps and the classic accompaniments, so everyone at the table assembles their own. Pile in the chicken, add peppers, fold and eat. It is a dish built for sharing, chatting and second helpings — the kind of relaxed, hands-on meal that suits a holiday evening in Side.

Halal chicken, family-friendly spice

All of our chicken and meat is halal, prepared by halal slaughter, so the Chicken Fajita is a comfortable choice for families who eat halal. The seasoning is warm and aromatic rather than fiery — enough character to make it interesting, gentle enough that children and milder palates enjoy it too. If you like a little more heat, just ask and we will point you towards the spicier options on the table.

A note in the spirit of honesty: Hawaii is a restaurant and a bar, so alcohol is served on the premises. Pork is only prepared on request, in a separate area with its own dedicated equipment. Our meat and chicken are halal, and the atmosphere is genuinely family-friendly — but we would never describe ourselves as alcohol-free, because that simply is not true.

Not sure which fajita to order?

The Chicken Fajita is the crowd-pleaser, but it is not your only option. If your table is split between chicken and red meat, take a look at the Meat and Mixed Fajita in Side — the Mixed version brings both together on one sizzling skillet. Want the full picture of our fajita spread and how it all comes to the table? Our guide to fajita night in Side walks you through it.

And if you are in the mood to explore the wider menu, the Chicken Fajita sits within a proper spread of Mexican-inspired dishes. See everything we serve in our overview of Mexican food in Side, from nachos and quesadillas to burritos. Speaking of which — if wraps are your thing, the Chicken Burrito in Side is a natural companion order for the group.

What goes well with it

Fajitas love company. Start with Chicken Nachos to share while the grill does its work, or add a Chicken Quesadilla to the middle of the table so there is a little of everything to pass around. If someone in your party prefers something meat-free, the Vegetarian Burrito and Vegetarian Quesadilla are on the menu too. You will find the full line-up, along with our 30-plus cocktails, on the menu — and our Happy Hour runs from 19:00 to 20:00 each evening.
