Mecca Market — Restaurant in North Township

Mannnnnnn i had such a good experience with the 1 brother i was EXCITED to come back to the store...then i met the owner😔📉.....I had very high expectations for u....and u let me downnnnn....a simple conversation let me see who u truly are...is it cuz I'm black or whattt...why didn't u smile....I drove from gary to see u, to shop with u..and u hurt my feelings. As a customer...I came to ADMIRE your success.... It's like you seen my black skin and didn't hear anything I had to say...I was excited!!! To come spend with u...now... I'd be embarrassed to walk n this place...I feel disgusting....both u and Ali Baba are slightly disrespectful...but whyy would I go to a new disrespectful place...He did say the proper greeting I will give him that....I will admit I did use ...Ebt maybe he don't like that.....mannnn it was 1 customer besides me n the store...then yall all came from the back askin about a problem???the lil old lady too recording for what? Me buy juice?? Me say SubhanAllah?...I spoke with 1 the young many and he was soo enthusiastic to tell me about the business venture...but when it's 6 workers and 1 customer u can't keep up with my questions of admiration....mannnnnnn stop it..u didn't because u didnt want to simply...but them young Muslims was polite May Allah swt reward yall...you others smh...but that's the lil weird "Muslim" community yall got going on no surprise...I took yall flyers out the mosque 🚮....as if I'm so ignorant I wouldn't notice when an establishment is busy. As if I don't know what is appropriate and when.. simple...

They are RACIST!!!!! If you are white or black, don’t go here!! Arabs only. They disrespected me, and they disrespected my family Edit: If you know every customer then you know who I am.. had a great conversation with 18 year old young man working yesterday. We were simply wondering about the store and why and how they opened, and getting to know the people doing business in our Muslim community. We were excited to meet the boss! However today there were older people there (who im assuming are the ones responding to this). Very cold attitude and suspicious for no reason. No other reason for this behavior besides racism.. We came there to patronize the business, and you made us feel unwelcome. I feel bad for the young men who have to be subjected to the older peoples old ways. I also believe you are undermining Ali Baba for no reason, when yesterday the Young Man told me you guys made more money with buffet. But you chose to sell the exact same products as the store less than 2 minutes away. If these guys wanted to be a COMMUNITY they would have worked together... and not turned away genuine customers for being excited about the new business.. when there were only 1 other customer just shopping around the store.. No voices were raised, no weird things were said, but you assume it's a problem.. I'm assuming you're scared of black people..

He was so excited to meet you.. No way he did not walk out of there and say "that was so great Alhamdullilah"... How could he possibly have left feeling...

This was my second time here and I love it so much! Everything is organized, super clean and great atmosphere ! The young man at the counter was very welcoming and very sweet and the best customer service ! He explained some of the products to me! I bought the hummus and I’ll never go anywhere else again to purchase hummus again ! Homemade ,creamy delicious I ate it all in two days by myself ! So healthy for you also! The food buffet, unbelievable! I wanted to sample everything ! I was introduced to grandma who does all the cooking and she handed me the garlic bulbs I was looking for !! Huge and healthy, Like garlic bulbs are supposed to look like! Super nice and sweet woman ! Olive oil, tea, spices I cannot wait to go back to buy more! I also brought home a dish made with Flava beans …omg I LOVE IT ! Great selection of meats I will be back ! I love family owned business businesses, and you will get treated like you are a queen ! Thank you so much and I wish you more great success in your business ! Thank you...
