About Middle East Restaurant & Café

Perched right along Kira Road at Marigold Heights, Middle East Restaurant and Cafe is the kind of vibrant spot you pull into when you want a proper meal and a lively atmosphere. It sits close to the road, meaning you trade deep, quiet reflection for an energetic hum of Kampala traffic and chatter, making it ideal for catching up with a group of friends over loaded fries, sizzling beef platters, or generous sharing portions. The crowd is steady, the decor carries a distinct elegance, and the staff move with an attentive warmth that keeps the room welcoming.

The menu covers plenty of ground, from international comfort food to the kitchen's signature specialties. You will regularly spot tables crowded with freshly carved chicken shawarma wraps, garlic dips, loaded pizzas, and plates of hot, spiced barbecue wings. If you settle in for a long morning or an easy afternoon, ask for a cup of black masala chai to round things out, or grab one of their beautifully presented cakes if you are celebrating something small. It is accessible, dependable, and open around the clock whenever a late-night craving hits.

Food was great, huge variety on the menu. Chicken shawarma wraps were delicious, and the garlic dips were awesome. Kids enjoyed their chicken Hawaiian pizza, and the platters were a sizeable amount. Drinks took awhile to come out, but overall service was not bad. Really enjoyed the chef coming out with the pineapple for the sizzling beef platter.

We had a fantastic dine in experience. The food was absolutely delicious, yummy, , full of flavour, and served hot and fresh. The ambience was welcoming and comfortable, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and professional. Big shout out to Annet, service top notch.... Ask for Julie if you want some nice black masala chai!! ;) Everything from start to finish was perfect. Highly recommended, and we’ll definitely be back again on our next visit.

The location is a 10/10. The staff is so welcoming and friendly. The deco is elegant and unique. The service is good and they are attentive to the needs of the customer, tho it's near the road so it's not a place for deep relaxing talks but more of a vibrant place for joy and laughter with friends 😊.

Middle East Restaurant to be more specific Bukoto Branch, the one I’ve been at severally is really one of a kind. Has nice meals that are full of delicacy, has a nice shawarma and indeed they’re the King of Shawarma on top of that they have the modest customer care service that I’ve not seen anywhere in a while plus an ample parkin’…. 😊😊
