Halal is an arabic term meaning "permissible" which on MoreThanSalad refers to Muslim dietary laws. One major prohibition is alcohol, but most generally deal with animal and meat preparation and so unlike Kosher law has no direct impact on vegetarians and vegans dining in a restaurant that serves halal food.
These are jewish dietary laws. If a place is kosher they cannot serve both meat and milk dishes so a kosher restaurant that serves meat will have absolutely no dairy products which can be of practical benefit to vegans.

A vegan is someone who seeks to avoid consuming or using any animal products or byproducts. Each person's approach may vary slightly in their level of strictness as to what they personally choose to avoid. The reasons for being vegan are also different for each person, but common reasons include ethical or moral concerns related to animal rights, health, or the environment.
