God willing, the food is very expensive, but Arabic products are very expensive. This is my advice to those who are going. Don't buy the sprinkles in the store, as they are not good, they spoil, and they are expensive
I do not recommend this place for any food products. Me and my sister bought food the other day and woken up in the middle night vomiting all day and all these other symptoms. We ended up getting food poisoning. The food was cold when we got it and looked like it’s been there for a while. If you care about your safety do not buy food products from them.
My dad called to also complain and the person had hung up on him and told him to call later…
Americana fava beans are rotten with no expiry dates. Fresh Sausage also had a rotten yellow coloring.
It’s the best mango juice
Best shop ever
Best place for dates, Middle Eastern bread, and camel milk.
I’m LIVID at how terrible my experience was. I ordered a falafel platter, “Greek salad”, and side of hummus. With at least 2 pitas on the side. And to preface, I’m Middle Eastern and have eaten falafel and hummus and Mediterranean food as well ALL MY LIFE. So I know what to expect.
1) the platter was COLD. As if the falafel had been refrigerated all day and just placed in the container. As was the rice. (For context, I ordered food online but it arrived very quickly so food should have not had a chance to get so cold). It was accompanied by some sort of watery white substance that was supposed to be hummus. IT WAS NOT. As well as what was supposed to be tahini on the side, but it was more of like a mayo textured watery white sauce.
2) The “Greek salad” was NOT a Greek salad. It was advertised as such with the expectation of the ingredients of feta, tomato, onion, and olives. No olives were present. Instead just more pickles and lettuce in the “Greek salad”. PICKLES DON’T GO IN GREEK SALAD. And yet, it was the only bearable part of my meal. Also the dressing tasted like it was made with vegetable or canola oil and not olive oil.
3) my side of hummus was just as disappointing. Some oil filled to the top that did not at all taste like olive oil.
Since I was VERY HUNGRY I decided to heat up my food. However I couldn’t come close to finishing it, and now I am feeling VERY nauseous. Here is to hoping I don’t get food poisoning. This place is GROSS! I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU ORDER HERE!
Halal food ?

It's 345AM. I placed a GrubHub order at 3:08AM and then pressed Help to cancel, at 3:08AM. Since that time I've been begging three different agents on GrubHub to cancel the order. The first two bounced me off chat. I've been awake for 40 minutes in the middle of the night because there's no cancel button. This is a halal cart. The driver hasn't been assigned yet. This amounts to a 2-hour nightmare in the middle of the night.
You have to have a liking for middle eastern foods.
Distinctive, sophisticated, competitive prices
I have been going to Makkah Market since I was 6 and I love everything about this Market. Feels like home, I purchase groceries, books, hot meals, send money back home,abayas & hijabs. The kindest souls works here! The halal meat sold here smells so fresh to me. You can tell the animals are healthy and well taken care for before being slaughtered and packaged up to sell.
