This store is amazing, a true gem in Calgary. I always find what I'm looking for, and the staff is incredibly helpful. I love the new changes they have made to the store, and the variety of products they have brought. I'd definitely recommend this shop to everyone!
We went for the Iftar Buffet ! Food was delicious ! Atmosphere is great, with a traditional seating area for large group and families! Very clean area ! Chapli kebab , lamb curry and kublai rice were an amazing ! Chicken biryani was a little below average and definitely a letdown compared to the other buffet items ! That would be the one item I would request owners to improve as it’s a staple for most places ! Staff was friendly and attentive ! Gem of a place! Plus you can do your groceries there as well ! Has most traditional Pakistani, Indian and Arabic items !
All the meat we got from them was excellent and their delivery guys are super nice! The chicken tandoori is super hot but pretty good! (Cooked it in my air fryer and it turned out perfect!)
Meh...
Many Turkish food and brand
Nice store, fair price and nice people
Good place but check the price tag double just in case
About Zak's mart
A halal butcher and grocery with a small on-site prayer space at 8906 Macleod Trail SE, with an attached Afghan and Pakistani kitchen under the same roof.
Order the chapli kebab, lamb curry and kabuli rice, which diners praise. The tandoori chicken is properly spicy, so go in ready for heat. The chapli kebab, lamb curry and kabuli rice are the highlights of the iftar buffet. Freshly baked Afghani naan goes well with the curries.
Ramadan and big groups
During Ramadan there is an iftar buffet, and the traditional seating area suits a large family gathering or a group. Customers describe the meat as excellent and the delivery drivers as friendly.
You can do your whole grocery shop here too, with most traditional Pakistani, Indian and Arabic items on the shelves. The store is well stocked, and shoppers say they always find what they are looking for. Staff are described as friendly and attentive.
