This place is located in a side street on your right (if Masjid Al Haram is on your left). Cheap and cheerful, busy, however, good takeway service. They have 2 floors and seating, too, but you're probably better off getting a takeaway.

I had a really disappointing experience at this restaurant. After tawaf, my family of 10 were craving Pakistani food and we came across this place, but it quickly turned into a disaster. First off, they didn’t have the space to accommodate us right away, which was understandable. What wasn’t understandable was the waiter’s shocking behavior—he actually asked a group that was already eating to get up and make room for us! Totally unacceptable and unfair to those diners. I had to step in and insist that we wait for proper seating.

After waiting about 15-20 minutes, we were seated, only to be served piping hot naan with cold curry pakora and biryani. We politely asked them to reheat the food, and while they did, it still seemed like they just didn’t care about quality. When I asked for the biryani to be reheated again, the waiter literally threw it in the trash and said he’d get us a new one. Who does that?? The whole experience was just frustrating and the food was far from worth it. The curry pakora was equally disappointing. All in all, this place was a joke, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone looking for a proper meal or decent service.

This restaurant is near the Haram and that's one best things about it. The taste of the rest is just fine. It is very expensive. Cleanliness is also non-existent, due to which there are a lot of rats.

Good Pakistani hotel near Haram Pak

Reasonable price. Taste is good. Roti is free

We are 5 and 2 gravies are enough for us. They give 3 rotis free with 1 gravy and that's sufficient for 5 of us

This place is okay if you want Pakistani food near Makkah. There aren't many options around, so it's worth a try. Prices are similar to other Pakistani restaurants nearby, but the taste is just okay.

My recent experience at this restaurant was incredibly disappointing. Not only did they serve me minuscule portions of their kharahi dish, but they also substituted it with qourma without any explanation. This left me feeling both hungry and cheated, especially considering the hefty price tag. I expected a satisfying meal but left unsatisfied and won't be returning anytime soon.

Free roti, delicious Pakistani food and very cheap. Close enough to Haram. No reason to burn cash at more expensive places. I have taken a picture of their food prices in Saudi Riyals. Each US dollar buys 3.75 Riyals. So your money goes a long way.
The sitting arrangement is upstairs and hence not suitable for people with disabilities. Water bottle here costs $0.30 here.
The place however is in an alley called Nooh street off Ibrahim Khalil road and is not shown in google maps. Rather run down area but still the food is fresh and very tasty. Street in front is called kabooter chowk shown in picture

Update Feb 12, 2020
Since my last review, unfortunately, I have to subtract one star from the rating. This is primarily because the place has become way too crowded and there are multiple similar restaurants in the vicinity.
There does not seem to be a way to wait list the customers. So if you struggle your way up the stairs, you may find that there is hardly any room to even stand there.
The food is still cheap fresh and dilicious but given the degree of inconvenience and presence of similarly priced hotels with comparable taste I can't really recommend it too highly.
