Halal Reviews for Al Markaz Carrollton Dallas

Do you enjoy eating chicken karahi but are worried about the insane amount of oil and potential for clogged arteries? Read on. Food here is so good. I've lived nearby so I've been here dozens of times over the years. I almost always get the chicken karahi, among some other dishes. The ONLY issue is that the food (e.g. karahi chicken) is quite oily, as is the case with a lot of this type of cuisine. To deal with this, I recently tried to use a mesh at home to filter out the oil. It honestly works so much better than I thought. See the photos. I'm able to remove a lot of the excess oil. For those who say that it's not going to taste the same, that's simply not true. There is still plenty of oil and it tastes just as great, if not better. So I highly recommend using a mesh to filter. In fact, I'd recommend the restaurant start doing this before serving. Don't let anyone tell you can't avoid clogged arteries and enjoy a good karahi anymore.

During our family visit to Mansfield, we were invited to Al Markaz Restaurant in Carrollton, Texas, for dinner, and it was a fantastic experience! The food was delicious and full of flavor, with a great variety to choose from. We enjoyed the samosas, multiple BBQ options, flavorful curry dishes, and daal—everything was cooked to perfection and packed with authentic taste. The overall experience was wonderful, and we truly enjoyed our meal. If you’re looking for authentic and flavorful South Asian cuisine, Al Markaz is definitely worth a visit!

The mutton biryani was great, same thing with the curry goat 🐐 . Everything was just delicious, the servers are very friendly and efficient. This is one of the best Pakistani food that you can find in Dallas area. My wife and I really enjoyed it 👍

Restaurants come and go... but Al Markaz has become an institution and must visit place if you want to try great Pakistani food. I have been coming to this place since it opened and with some changes here and there on the menu it has been the most consistent place both in taste and quality of food. Variety is great, food is phenomenal and service is consistent. Our food arrived quickly and exactly what we had expected. Great tasting food with quality I come to expect. Our server was awesome and he packaged the leftovers for us at our request and even added the condiments for full take home meal experience. The attached grocery store is great and convenient to pick up what you need for an ethnic dish. The snack and sweets section offers a great variety of food items for quick snack and every item is authentic in taste at a reasonable price. This is a must visit casual joint to enjoy great food.

Food is amazing. Very nice place to sit eat and relax. 10/10 on Pakistani Naan. I am an Indian and loved their different style of cooking.
