A packed store full of things I've never heard of but am oh, so curious about. I come here to buy halva - a middle Eastern dessert delicacy. And they have several options. I'll want to spend more time here and noticed today that there's an attached restaurant next door. Gotta come back soon! read more

Love this place! I love the generous portions of FRESH naan bread. The go to items for me are: beef seekh kabob, chicken tikka masala, and the chicken biriyani. The chutney is delicious, It reminds me of the el pollo loco Caesar salad cilantro dressing. read more

A local grocery store that has all of your herb, spices, deli for any middle eastern cooking, southeast Asian cuisine. Have driven by here for years and glad to know I can find a local store to pick up saffron, rose water, turmeric. A great one shop stop for those unique cuisines that can be challenging to find the ingredients and minimize me running around to multiple grocery chain. The poultry carries goat meat, now this is something you don't find in other market read more

**A Long-Time Favorite ** I can't believe I haven't reviewed Makkah Market yet! I've been coming here for years, and it's truly my go-to spot for halal meat and amazing food. This local, family-owned business has everything you need, from desi, Pakistani, and Indian spices to market goods and, of course, halal meat. **Delicious and Filling Food Options ** The food at Makkah Market is absolutely fire! We often get catering done here, and the naans are always amazing. I still miss the chicken wings so much! These days, my go-to order is definitely the chicken tikka roll or the chicken kabob roll. They are so good, filling, and loved by my whole family. There isn't seating, its more of a takeout business so just keep that in mind **Affordable and Convenient ** Everything at Makkah Market is reasonably priced, making it a great one-stop shop for all your needs. Whether you're looking for fresh halal meat, spices, or other market goods, this place has it all. They also got chilli milli, vimto, pakola, everything you can imagine! **Support Local Business ** Makkah Market is a local family-owned business, and I'm happy to support it. The quality of their products and the warmth of their service keep me coming back. **In Summary: A Must-Visit for Halal Meats and More ** If you haven't been to Makkah Market yet, you're missing out.

Makkah Market - Halal Near Me - Torrance, California

Welcoming halal community. Convenient location. First of all good customer service. Definitely recommend

I wish I lived closer, but this Halal Market is worth the 30 minute drive. Prices are way better than you can find in any other Halal butcher shop, and they have pretty good biriyani, as well. Service is fast and friendly, I wouldn't give this place anything less than a 10/10. Keep up the good work! read more

Awe....love this spot! Food is yummy and samosas are the bomb, chicken is my fav. Have tried the potato ones yet.

I go to this place sometimes for my Persian groceries. Small store, but good customer service, good products, and good prices!

Makkah Market has been my go-to place for all my international/middle eastern necessities. They have a wide variety of products, a great meat department and a delicious take out restaurant. The service is always welcoming and friendly. There is plenty of parking right outside the facility. My favorites dishes from the restaurant are their chicken biryani and their chicken tikka wrap. read more

Makkah Market is a local staple here in the South Bay for all this Pakistani, from food to groceries, halal meats, and beyond. Their foods are exceptionally good, especially the chicken tikka masala and Nehari. I do recommend you call in your order ahead of time to save yourself the wait. Their store is also packed with many Middle Eastern and South Asian delicacies. I recommend you stop by if you're craving something Pakistani! read more

Don't sleep on this market. Their food is fire. Ordered the beef kebab roll(definitely returning for more of these), lamb korma curry, chicken samosa, and garlic naan. The kebabs were my favorite item and full of flavor. Chicken samosas were juicy and crisp. Lamb was super tender too read more

Ordered chicken kabob and curry chicken... frozen kabob and even after prepration, the inner part of kabob was still cold.

The food here is super fresh and delicious! I got chicken tikka seekh beef kebab garlic naan and vegetarian samosa. Everything was super delicious. Is a bit spicy if you're not accustomed to spicy foods. Very delicious would definitely come here again read more

Food is amazing I love this place and everyone is so kind all of your ingredients and spices for home cooked Mediterranean food with meat counter in back with fresh meat and their produce is very fresh I have gone three times in a month and will go back again and again read more

Delicious international Middle Eastern takeout spot! The Tandoori mix plate is excellent, and I love the Kabab roll, Biryani, and curry--they're all delicious. The naan bread is huge! The staff is friendly too. Be sure to call ahead, as orders can take 20-30 minutes. Highly recommend! read more

Called in beforehand to see if they had good halal meat for Korean BBQ or hot pot, and needed thin brisket slices. Was very impressed by the quality and affordability of the meat I was provided with, it was the perfect size for my needs and resembled the beef cuts that you can get at non-Zabihah Asian markets like Ranch 99. 100% will come again if I'm in the Torrance area. read more

Makkah Market - Beef Brisket - Halal Near Me - Torrance, California

Owned by a humble and friendly family.Very delicious food and good quality meat. You can get authentic Olive oil with a reasonable price and many spice combinations. I recommend the potato samosa, Chicken biryani, Garlic spread, hummus, Tahini and the canned Dolmas (stuffed grape leaf) surprisingly good. For the people who have a bad experience with lamb meat should try the lamb here. Hala and very very clean. read more

My review is for the grocery store. This place is dirty! The grocery baskets are filthy looking! They need to reorganize their store and make it more orderly. Also, some of the grocery items are overpriced by 50%! The only aspect I like about Makkah Market is they carry a little more variety in comparison to other desi grocery stores in the area. I hope the owner(s) clean up their store because it's quite repulsive. read more

five star ..amazing indian /halal food.. I had a mixture of chicken and vegeterian dishes.. everything was A+. Chicken biryani - a bit dry but still way better than I have had before. Chicken tikka masala - very flavorful spinach paneer- a bit spicy and watery but still very good bhindi/okra - fantastic going to get the beef nehari, and lamb kebabs next time read more

They sell crack chicken that you can grill at home. Go ask for the tikka chicken breasts.

This is my go to place for fresh meat , herbs, Veges, spices , zebra rice , halal gummies. , yogurt, et The store is full of hard to find good stuff. I love that they almost always have fresh cilantro and parsley. Their beef haleem is also fantastic and the naan bread is made fresh and so delicious. The workers there are friendly. Highly recommend ! read more

1.) Amazing Quality 2.) Amazing Prices 3.) Amazing Service 4.) ALWAYS clean!!! The produce is ALWAYS fresh, the best okra I've ever found. The meat is fresh and always cut the right way. They're fast and efficient. It's super clean and never smelly or unorganized. Love coming here. They're the best! Love the family atmosphere and the way they operate. The food(to go only) is amazing. The chicken tikka is out of this world and so is the charga. $6.99/order for everything but the charga is AMAZING! Loving coming here for grocery and food. (BTW they cater and it's beyond delicious. ) read more

Very unique place. Its a market that has a deli and a restaurant. I got the chicken Tikka Masala. It was a little on the spicy side and I found I out I can ask for it to be less spicy when I put in my order. The flavor was average but the dish was very oily to me. I like tikka masala to have the yummy creamy texture like a pink sauce or a vodka cream sauce. This sauce seemed to separate the tomatoes from the oil base. Parking was easy. Staff is friendly read more

I had been craving for authentic Pakistani cuisine. I ordered Beef Haleem, lamb Korma and bhindi with a side of biryani rice, plain naan and garlic naan! Also ordered the chicken and potato samosas. Everything was so on point for Pakistani food in taste. Irfan was very gracious and helpful. I ordered ahead and everything was on time. The naans were huge so definitely worth the price. The food was very flavorful. If I have to pick the best of my order- its the bhindi (so good!). Even my non-Pakistani friends who I shared it with loved it. read more

I am happy this store exists, because this area does not have a lot of halal markets. They carry BYBLOS plain yogurt, my favorite and most necessary food. The man who runs the checkout counter is very cool and nice. I would be happy if they opened a second location in Long Beach. read more

Makkah Market - Byblos plain yogurt: I'd die without it. - Halal Near Me - Torrance, California

2018 YELP CHALLENGE: 3/100 4.5 FRESH, HEALTHY, and AFFORDABLE Pakistani/Indian cuisine in a mini mart!! For under $10 you can buy delicious curries, tikka, and samosas, or you can attempt to cook them yourself with the array of fresh Halal meats/spices. Check out Makkah Market hidden in the Western Square Plaza in Torrance!! After going back and forth about getting the Beef Nihari or the Beef Haleem, I finally decided on the Haleem! Quick Tips: -Opens early: 9:30 everyday. Closed Fridays from 1-2pm for prayer -A couple outside tables. Take out only. -Crowded parking. Shared with multiple restaurants and other businesses -2018: prices went up a little -Unfortunately you cannot sample the curries (which come a-la-carte) -Fresh HALAL meats!! Not enough fruits and veggies to make this place a go-to grocery store -You can find MARS, Cadbury, and other British candies -Makkah: Arabic for Mecca= the birthplace of Muhammad -Haleem: a hearty green lentil stew topped with dried fruit, ginger, jalapeno slices, cilantro, and limes made in the Middle East and India (great HEALTHY post workout meal!) -Haleem is slightly spicy: on a scale of 1-Howlin' (10) it's a 2/10 Taste 5/5 First time having Haleem and it did NOT disappoint. Savory and porridge-like stew of minced meat and lentils came out nice and hot! I was able to make 2 meals out of this! I particularly liked having the dried fruit, ginger, and jalapenos (that gave it a bit of a bite) on top. Price 4/5 Although curries are a-la-carte, Haleem is so hearty, you don't need naan! Yay for big portions Service 5/5 Everyone is so kind. The guy at the counter recommended the Beef Nihari, so I'll defnitely try that next time If there was indoor seating and curry samplings I'd give this place a 5! read more

I love this place great customer service great food at the restaurant so many items you can find everything there and they have a lot of unusual things that you cannot find everywhere I love this market read more

Friendly staff when I asked for help. The individual who helped me was Rahul I believe. Lots of imported goods from the Middle East and even Europe. I got the Seekh Kebab, Chicken Tikka, and Garlic Naan. Each dish was amazing and fresh as well. Prices were great too. Will definitely come back. Hidden gem of a place. read more

I was craving for some chicken tandoori and found this place nearby. It is a Pakistani/Indian grocer with Halal meats. This is not a sit down place but it does provide some outdoor seatings in front of the store. To order, you need to go all the way to the back of the store where you will find a meat counter. This place may not look much but the chicken tikka I ordered was tender and juicy with the right amount of spices. If you do not like it too spicy, be sure to tell them before you order cuz it can be quite spicy, in a good way. For $6.99+tax, I got 7-8 big chunks of perfectly cooked breasts. It was a great deal! Fo those of you who are wondering what is the difference between chicken tandoori and chicken tikka, here is a general breakdown: Chicken tandoori has bones, skin, and dark meats while chicken tikka is boneless skinless breast chunks. Both are baked in clay oven. read more

LOVE THIS MARKET!! Their meat is always fresh, not old or frozen and they do a great job cutting & cleaning it as well. It is a great place for Halal meat as well as Indian groceries. My husband & I drive 2 hours (we live in Simi Valley) to get our meat from here because the quality is always consistent. We refuse to go anywhere else. The staff is also very friendly and welcoming. HIGHLY recommend this place!!!! read more

They have a lot of interesting things here. My favorite is the their instant noodles at an amazing price. It's also a convenient place to get groceries that you would regularly get at a bigger grocery store. read more

It's reasonably priced but I feel like I've had better Indian food. More sauce than meat if you order a meat dish. But for the price.... ehhh... whatever. The packaging always leaks through.. it's super oily. Love the giant Naan bread!! Cut it and Put it in the toaster if you like it a little more crispy. It gets kinda soggie from the foil. It's inside a market. Plenty of parking outside. A few tables and chairs outside as well, if you want to enjoy the view of the Crenshaw and parking lot haha. read more

So I usually go to the Torrance Catering next door for good Korean kim bap, but they were out. As I'm walking back to my car, I notice all the photos of food on the wall. I always thought it was a market. Wrong! They sell prepared food as well!! Pakistani and Indian food!! Omg. So the nice gentleman at the register was SUPER helpful, recommended a few good dishes. Of course I got everything he recommended. Unfortunately they were out of rice dishes but I got chicken tikka masala, chicken karhai, some tandoori chicken, beef and chicken samosas. Price is very decent for the amount of food!! And it was DELICIOUS!! Not too spicy!! And, the guy in the back, who I believe was the chef, included a free tandoori naan. Which was literally the size of my face!! So huge!! Like a medium pizza huge!! The food was amazing, the people working there are super friendly. I definitely want to check out the market part of this place next time I go there! Definitely going back to try other dishes!! read more

No complaints about this spot! The wifey and I were looking for a whole in the wall spot and this place is it!! It was fantastic and very authentic. We got the tiki Marsala and tandoori chicken with garlic and plain naan!! The customer service was cool and the place was chill. Small eating area. Checked in for a free drink and I was on my way. Would love to come back and try more of their menu. Bought also a few small items and the prices are competitive. read more

This place was super good! Came here on a Friday when I was posting up at a friend's house in Carson and desperately needed some sustenance. The people working there were really friendly - I ordered a chicken tikki masala and a few other things whose names I forget but that I just pointed to on the menu. Everything was super affordable and with great size portions! While wandering around while waiting for my food, I also really enjoyed all of the store's offerings. They had great spice mixes that I bought and can't wait to try. Would definitely come back! read more

I ordered uber eats from here yesterday. The food is very oily and they used old chicken to make my chicken tikka masala. The chicken tikka meat tasted bland and weird. They were partially discoloured from inside. The garlic naan was completely burned on its back side. The plain rice also tasted old and it was in clumps. I ended up throwing the whole thing away...a waste of money and my time. I wont be ordering from them again. read more
