Shako Mako is a delightful and delicious experience from start to finish!
We visited Shako Mako on a quiet (and very snowy!) winter evening, and we came hungry and ready to eat after escaping the snow and cold. We were greeted warmly and seated quickly, and my eyes were probably bigger than my stomach on this evening, since I wanted to order half the menu for our party of four, but we eventually narrowed it down to the Mixed Appetizer Plate, Fattoush Salad, Beef Manakish, Traditional Dolma Platter, Falafel Platter, and the Family Plate. Also ordered a Lemon Mint Juice at the recommendation of staff. (Great recommendation, btw!)
Wow, is all I need to say. The food and drink came quickly and we scrambled to find room for all of the plates that were showing up out of the kitchen; very large plates filled to the edges with delicious looking food.
Digging in, I was impressed at how well cooked and seasoned all of the dishes were. I almost stole the entire M'Tabbal (part of the Mixed Appetizer Plate!) for myself, I think I ate extra portions of the Kabab Tawa without asking, and I found myself wanting to keep eating even though my stomach had raised the white flag.
That Family Plate was also far larger than we had expected, and so we had plenty to take home.
Overall, one of my favourite meals that I've had in recent memory, and I'm already itching to go back. Thank you so...
Read moreOutstanding Dining Experience at Shako Mako Restaurant Thank you dimaaa so muchiiii❤️❤️ I recently dined at Shako Mako Restaurant and was thoroughly impressed with both the customer service and the food.
From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff were attentive and genuinely friendly, making sure that every aspect of our dining experience was enjoyable. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations, catering to our preferences with ease.
The food at Shako Mako was nothing short of exceptional. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with authentic flavors. The kebabs were perfectly cooked, tender, and juicy, while the hummus was creamy and rich, just as it should be. The fresh, warm pita bread was a delightful accompaniment, and the baklava for dessert was a sweet, flaky masterpiece.
What stood out the most was the attention to detail and the care taken to ensure that every customer felt valued. The manager even stopped by our table to check on our satisfaction, which added a personal touch to the experience.
Overall, Shako Mako Restaurant excels in both its culinary offerings and its customer service. It’s clear that they prioritize their guests' enjoyment and satisfaction. I highly recommend Shako Mako to anyone looking for an outstanding...
Read moreIf something comes complimentary with food such as bread, etc, don't ask customers whether they want it. It should be automatically given to them. It makes you/restaurant look cheap when customers are already paying so much and you guys are trying to cut corners and save for your business. Seating was good, but no customer service. As a paying customer, not coming back. My food (meat skewer was undercooked). Having a lot of experience eating at such kind of similar restaurants, they may have just taken the same food from my table cooked it and returned with the same instead of making new ones. I even quickly went through reviews and someone had a similar situation and concern. So I am glad I did not even bother because regardless I still had an upset stomach. Don't mind but learn to appreciate paying customers and make them feel welcome. Food bloggers with forced positive reviews getting free food may not always return to your restaurant but a paying customer might. Anyways, I won't be returning with my group of people I came with but wishing you...
