Reviews highlight good value and mostly flavorful dishes at Makkah, with lamb and biryani praised as standouts, while butter chicken sometimes lacks depth and chicken pieces can be small; naan varieties are mixed, with garlic naan not always showing fresh garlic, yet fries are superb and portions can feel generous when available, overall the space is cozy and suited for family or small gatherings, and the service is friendly and efficient, contributing to an experience described as authentic and a hidden gem worth trying.
Nous étions un groupe de 15 nous avions réservé & nous avons eu un belle accueil à notre arrivé. La nourriture était vraiment bonne , de mon côté j'ai été ravis car ne mangeant pas épicé j'ai trouvé mon bonheur.
Tout le monde était ravis .
Je recommande .

I'm a big fan of everything Keema ( minced veal ) they offer 4 different types of it & I was happy. The Keema dishes were good but the butter chicken lacked flavour & the pieces of chicken were very small & had no grill marks like other restaurants do. The naan were nice but the garlic naan had no fresh pieces of garlic like other restaurants do with some fresh green herbs. The chicken biryani was the star of the show it was very delicious. Plus the portion sizes could be bigger. All in all it was ok.

Ordered: butter chicken, matar paneer, rice, plain naan, butter naan, garlic naan, & a large fries.
Butter chicken: 4/5
Matar paneer: 4.5/5 (ratio of paneer to peas was low)
Rice: 4/5 (huge portion, worth the price)
Plain naan: 3/5 (bit boring & dry)
Butter naan: 4/5 (good basic naan)
Garlic naan: 3/5
Fries: 5/5 (BEST fries I've found in the city, went back the next day for 3 large. Only down side is there osnt enough)
Took food to go, ultimately pretty good!
They asked about spice level & were kind at the counter. Food was ready quickly! The space is a little small but perfect for a small get together or first date. The decor isn't anything special, but it's comfy.
I went with my family for my daughter birthday. Food was delicious & fresh. Very cordial & friendly service. It is small but clean & recommended for family or small gatherings. Thank you Monsour & all kitchen staff.

Makkah Restaurant is truly a Hidden GEM! 🌟
The experience feels authentic, & the food is packed with flavor everything hits the spot! This place easily deserves a 5-star rating, & here's why:
2. Rich & creamy Butter Chicken that melts in your mouth.
3. Juicy & flavorful Tandoori BBQ Chicken.
4. Delicious other dishes like Eggplant & Lamb. (I'll apologize if I don't remember what they're called. X_X)
5. Perfectly cooked Kabuli Rice & Biryani Rice.
& to finish, a refreshing Mango Lassi Smoothie that tied the whole feast together. 🥭✨
It was an absolute feast worth every bite & definitely worth your time & money.
I highly recommend this place, it's a must-try spot! 🙌
The food was delicious & the prices reasonable, my 5yo son had a taste of one of the many dishes we ordered & said'I've never ate something as good as this!' between bites. The service was very good, the server was kind & patient which I appreciated since I sometimes am not patient enough with my own children.
If you were looking for good afghan food this restaurant is it.😋😋😋😋
