Review Summary

Makkah provides a widely appreciated dining experience known for flavorful, authentic dishes and generous portions that offer excellent value for the price. While many guests praise the high-quality naan, lamb, and biryani, opinions on the butter chicken remain inconsistent regarding texture and seasoning. The restaurant is generally viewed as a welcoming, clean, and friendly destination perfect for families or small gatherings, even if some patrons feel the atmosphere is simple and the space somewhat compact. Overall, the service is described as kind and efficient, solidifying its reputation as a hidden gem for those seeking delicious and satisfying meals in the city.

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.

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:

1. Freshly baked Garlic Naan that's soft, warm, & aromatic.

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! 🙌

Service is great, the man at the cash register is very accommodating. The food was good. I'd recommend the seekh kabob, the chapli kabob, & the wrap. Just don't buy the butter chicken lol.

Why is the butter chicken salty, isn't it supposed to be sweet?
