The staff of this restaurant has verbally confirmed halal status. Turkey Bacon is from Oscar Meyer and therefore not zabihah halal. And it is cooked on the same grill as zabihah halal meat.

★☆☆☆☆ This people are Muslim they should do that cooking bacon and saying it's hallal in their restaurant if that's the case I'll not be able to go this place anymore because. I used to loved to go this place but today when I found out that they cook pork. I'm finished with them Posted on June 24, 2019 |

★★★★★ Asalaamualaikum guys. Very good food. Fast service. Friendly staff. Regarding the turkey bacon controversy. Clarified with management turkey bacon is not Zabihah but it is cooked separately. Was with 2 other local cousins who also heard it. Posted on October 7, 2017 |

★★★★★ Great frikkin burgers!! I had the loaded double cheeseburger and it was big and delicious... The kind of burger that you need multiple napkins for!! The wings weren't that special, and I probably wouldn't get them again. Posted on January 23, 2017 |

★★☆☆☆ So sorry they are serving turkey bacon which is not halal at all they buy from Kroger we verified from cashier the food that are contaminated are any food in deep fry like all fries , falafel , onion rings, curly fries and also reg fried onions used in burgers we used to love there food so much but not any more after finding out talk to them to use halal bacon but they refused Posted on September 29, 2016 |

|
★★☆☆☆ I have seen the Oscar Meyer bacon first hand- it's true. And to hear it is cooked on the same grill! Too bad. The food was good, but I am upset that I may have unknowingly eaten haram. Posted on June 20, 2016 |

★★★★★ Another AH-MAZING joint. So good that I really wish they open a branch in Orlando. Place seemed small, average clean (can do better) but very busy. Tried their Ghost pepper quarter pounder, mushroom and Swiss and buffalo wings. Their burgers were HUGE in size that to me, it's admirable of one can eat a meal in one sitting. Tasted so so good. Beef used was juicy, great seasoning and fresh. Ghost peppers gave a good kick. Wings were spicy and brought in a more heat to the meal! Loved it. This place is another MUST GO in Houston. This place will never disappoint you. Highly recommended. Posted on April 29, 2016 |

★★★★★ Another place I wish I'd discovered sooner. I'd seen the listing on Zabihah for years but drove by time and time again (I worked at the hospital across the street), until I finally needed to order lunch for a work meeting. Halal Tex-Mex is not easy to come by, how could I have waited so long?! My favorite dish here is the chimichanga, which is large and delicious. The enchiladas are standard. My husband has had multiple burgers here, which are also thick, generous, and tasty. One time while getting takeout, we were mistakenly given a grilled chicken sandwich instead of the Swiss mushroom burger and didn't discover the mistake until we had driven too far away. The grilled chicken was thin and unappealing. Because we were on our way out of town, we couldn't return to fix the problem. Thankfully, the next time we were at M&M Grill, I told the cashier what had happened, and she gave us a $5 discount on that day's order. The parking lot is certainly crowded at peak times, and the restaurant can be sweltering in summer. I recommend getting your order to go. The food is worth it. Posted on April 18, 2016 |

★★★★★ OMG awesome food tried loaded burger Chilli cheese fries chicken kabob platter quesadillas all were yummy. إنشاٴالله definitely go again and again Posted on August 25, 2015 |
|
|
★★★★★ I have been here three times, I tried Quessedilla, Enchiladas, Hot Jalapeno Burger and Cheese burgers. They were all to kill for. Beef was very tastly in Jalapeno burger and melted in the mouth, great taste and easy on stomach. Will definitely go again. Posted on May 7, 2015 |

|
★☆☆☆☆ The Oscar Meyer Turkey Bacon is, from what I have heard, cooked on the same cookware and used on the same prep area as the other ingredients. Thus the halal meat is "cross contaminate" by the turkey bacon. This makes the restaurant NOT ZABIHAH AT ALL. Posted on April 19, 2015 |
|
|
★☆☆☆☆ Haram meat for their bacon (Oscar Meyer brand), false advertisement. Can't cater to other Muslims needs by cooking the halal meat and the bacon separately. Posted on April 6, 2015 |
|
|
★☆☆☆☆ i am still mad at them for using non-halal turkey bacon. good food but i won't be going back because of that. the owner should remove the turkey bacon or already tell people clearly when people order. Posted on September 18, 2014 |
|
|
★★★★★ I have tried many different items from burgers to enchiladas and loved everything. I just read about the turkey bacon issue and I guess I wont order turkey bacon anymore. There are MANY amazing things you can have without turkey bacon. It is odd that they wouldn't just use halal turkey bacon that you can easily find but oh well. Posted on July 22, 2014 |

★★★★★ It looks like IbnFooduta is tippin' back that bottle of HATERADE! LOOL! Did i just read that right? Posted on May 19, 2014 |
|
|
★★★☆☆ I've had several things from here before uncluding the shawarma plate, mango habanero and I feel it is very overrated. Moreover, after the OSCAR MEYER TURKEY BACON SCANDAL, I will not be going back here. This place was making too much money and forgot about their loyal customers. Now, they will definitely lose the empire they built. Posted on May 19, 2014 |

★★★★★ Perfect food and fresh Posted on May 14, 2014 |

★☆☆☆☆ On their yelp review on April 5, 2014 it confirms that their Turkey bacon is not halal. They have deceived us with false claims of everything on their menu being halal. (http://www.yelp.com/biz/m-and-m-grill-houston?hrid=0r_0SXuHKw2avNTWrErJaQ)
On their Facebook page from November 14, 2013, Fatima Z. asked if something they (M&M Grill) posted was halal, and they (M&M Grill) replied "Fatima, all our products are halal." This is a lie. The management can't be trusted because they first advertised it as an establishment that carries halal food only, and now they turn around and say "we've never falsely advertised to you. We don't advertise Zabiha turkey bacon."
How could you deceive people like this, especially when your restaurant is right next to a Masjid? I once had their Breakfast Burger, and went to pray next door at the masjid, afterwards. Now I feel disgusted that I hate HARAM food and went to pray. Posted on May 14, 2014 |

★☆☆☆☆ I used to LOVE this place, however, I recently came across a review on another site by a patron who noticed their turkey bacon was in a an Oscar Meyer package. The response from the owner/manager was that they did not falsely advertise, they have never said their turkey was halal. On many occasions I have ordered their burger with the turkey bacon on it, I was never informed that it was Oscar Meyer. If it's not false advertising then I assume they tell their patrons that the turkey is not halal when it is ordered. I have ordered it many times and was never once informed, so yes, I believe it is false advertisement.. If they can purchase turkey bacon from Oscar Meyer who's to say they won't go down the street to a local grocery store to purchase other meat products. Very disappointed, I've informed my friends and family members of this. I will not be returning. Posted on May 14, 2014 |

★☆☆☆☆ Their menu is partial Zabihah halal. They don't even label it to let people know. Turkey Bacon is not Zabihah halal. Apparently the owners belief is that as long as it's not specified as halal, then it's okay even when it's not listed as non Zabihah halal on the menu. What sort of a Muslim does this to another Muslim? They should be ashamed of themselves. Posted on May 13, 2014 |
We've modified the listing per your observations. |

★★★☆☆ Falafel sandwich burger are the best Posted on April 29, 2014 |
|
|
★★★★★ AMAZING FOOD! best hallal burgers (double loaded cheeseburger) I have ever tasted, chimichanga blew my mind (cheeze lover), philli cheesesteak is awesome, quesidillas are good too! Only downside is parking, but just call them ahead of time to get your food ready and you can dine in because this place is usually packed! Posted on April 20, 2014 |
|
|
★★★★★ The place is small and has limited seating but the food is great. The loaded double cheeseburger is amazing although their regular cheeseburger or chicken burgers aren't that great. They have a variety of platters all of which are tasty. Posted on March 21, 2014 |

★★★★★ This is a good place with a good food Posted on February 28, 2014 |

★★★★☆ I loved this place. MashaAllah. My wife and I came this place while visiting Houston and I must say its one of the best Halal food joints ive been to. I got the double loaded burger which was AMAZING. So full of flavor. We also ordered the chilli cheese fries which were so good. My wife got a burrito, dont remember what it was called but it was the biggest thing Ive ever seen. I would recommend this place to everyone. Posted on January 19, 2014 |

★☆☆☆☆ Was visiting Houston recently and went here based on all the positive reviews. Honestly speaking, this was one of the worst halal american food places I have been too, not just in Houston, but in the entire country; and trust me, I have been to a lot of different Halal joints in the USA. The burgers are weak and tasteless. I ordered the double loaded cheeseburger, and while it is large in size, it was extremely small in the taste department. The service was horrible. The young girl or daughter who wears the hijab behind the cash is extremely rude and has tons of attitude. Not sure I would return simply on that fact alone. However, it is also the food that I did not enjoy. The fries were undercooked, so were the wings. The Kofta Kabab platter was hardly a kabab, but more like taco meat. Kofta kababs are supposed to take on some type of shape, i.e., like a seekh kabab. However, it was more like saucy ground beef curry. To make matters worse, I suffered a severe stomach ache the next morning and almost missed my early morning flight. Based on the above, I do NOT recommend this place. I make better food at home.

★★★★★ A great restaurant! Highly Recommended! Posted on December 3, 2012 |

★★★☆☆ Some great items like the Loaded Burger, Cheeseburger, and 3 Crispy Tacos. This is a pickup spot since there is no room for seating. Since this place has exploded in popularity (read: overrated!), the owners have become increasingly rude and neglect orders. Last time I went I waited over 20 minutes for our order (for party of 6). They totally forgot about us until we reminded them. Total amount of time to GET our food took 40min. LAST time going there! I don't recommend it no matter how good the food is.

★★★★★ Best burgers in Texas by far! Huge and very filling. Small seating area though. But food is too good. Posted on October 14, 2012 |
|
|
★★★★★ Excellent. Was always wondering why there were so many cars outside. Now I know. Been there a few times and have tried a few different things. Everything has been good. Reasonable prices, nice family owned business. Takes a little bit if time to get the food (we went next door to pray in the mosque) but well worth it. Flavourful and fresh. Cant wait to go back and try even more things on the menu. Posted on September 16, 2012 |

★★★☆☆ overrated Posted on September 3, 2012 |

★★★★★ Burgers are so good we haven't even tried anything else on the menu ... Definitely worth the drive from sugar land ... Try the mango habernaro burger! Posted on August 16, 2012 |

★★★★☆ I'll give them a 5 for the burgers but they lose a point for poor service and limited seating. My husband and I went there for Iftar one night. We got there 30 minutes early and right before they got a huge rush of people. We patiently waited for our food and when people who came after us started getting theirs we went up to ask. They forgot our order! So we waited another 10 minutes for our food, well after Iftar time. The burgers are amazing but service can be improved. Perhaps in normal non-Ramadan circumstances they don't forget orders. Also it's very cramped in there. It's definitely a hole in the wall with great burgers. Posted on August 11, 2012 |

★★★★★ best burgers in town Posted on May 20, 2012 |
|
|
★★★★★ We were visiting Houston and staying in the Med Center Area for, and saw the good reviews on here and decided to stop by. We ended up eating here two times. The grilled chicken buffalo burger was amazing. Fries were fresh and well seasoned. The chicken quesadilla was good, but not great. I wish it had more of a kick. Overall it was good food, nice people. Posted on May 15, 2012 |

★★★★☆ After reading review here, I decided to give a try. We bought loaded cheeseburger, beef shawarma, kofta kabab. Unlike people suggested the loaded burger and kofta kabab, I have seen nothing special about these. It was 7/10 scale. Loaded burger had lot of stuff in it including egg omelette. Pretty filling. But, the beef shawarma is 10/10. Everyone has to try this. It is the best ever, better than Fadi's shawarma. It is a little pricy though just for one shawarma, we paid like $8. We paid another $9 for loaded burger. Inside is not fabolous, not a place to enjoy with your loved one. Given the location, I expect prices to be a little lower, like $5.5 for Shawarma. Still I give 4 stars for the best Shawarma ever Posted on May 7, 2012 |

★★★★★ By Far the BEST BURGERS in Houston.. Love the food love the service the people MashAllah AMAZING .. I would love to go there once a week if I lived closer. I drive almost 45 mins for these Burgers. Love the wings too Keep up the great work . Posted on April 23, 2012 |

★★★★★ Masha allah best burger and quesadilla i ever had great place for a family . Food is really worth it, good and fresh prepared with a welcoming family . I really think you will not regret going to this place . Enjoy it as much as i did : ) Posted on March 17, 2012 |

★★★☆☆ Great food but prepare for a long wait. The only thing that's keeps me coming back is that the food is halal. The family is overworked but mashallah their business is doing well. Posted on March 12, 2012 |

NR Loaded burger is amazing and lives up to the hype. Chimichanga was also on point. First class halal! Posted on February 18, 2012 |

★★★★★ Great burgers, but not the healthiest food to eat. I recommend the mango habinero burger. Posted on January 27, 2012 |
|
|
★★★★★ I go to M&M quite often as their loaded cheeseburgers are amazing! To be honest, haven't really tried much else on the menu. Convenient location for UH students and those working in Med Center. Posted on January 24, 2012 |
